good morning. it is wednesday, july 25 2012. welcome to studio 57 at the cbs broadcast center. i'm charlie rose. mitt romney accuses president obama of contempt i believe conduct. we'll get reaction from top obama aide david axelrod. i'm erica hill. john miller gives us a new look at what happened inside the theater.org the colorado massacre. i'm gayle king. a just released video shows a sea world trainer attacked by a killer whale. plus, we'll hear from three of the jackson brothers about their family mess. but first as we do every morning, we begin with a look at today's eye-opener. your world in 90 seconds. he has given trust where it is not earned.

insult where it was not deserved and apology where it is not due. mitt romney begins a high-profile trip abroad. >> he arrives in london today. the first stop on the three-nation overseas trip. >> president obama will visit israel during his second term in office. of course, when they heard the second term part israel was like, we'll put you down as a maybe. >> in colorado starting to learn more about what happened inside the theater as the shooting unfolded. >> i'm hearing him yell. the rounds are going off boom boom, boom. >> batman star christian bale flew in to personally meet with survivors. >> a fine i miracle gave birth as her husband struggles to survive. >> i command you to disperse. >> in anaheim, california police and protesters. this is on the heels of two shootings over the weekend. >> these go are so corrupted. first look at video of a

killer whale nearly drowning a sea world trainer. >> this happened in san diego back in 2006. a mother is accused of leaving her child in a cart after police tried to stop her from shoplifting. ziejts hit by a pitch. >> all that. >> there is breaking news. if your child sits in front of the television plays with a computer, eats skittles it will be fat and have high cholesterol. >> i got this suit off canadien pep.com. sherman hemsley, star of the jeffersons, has died. >> i'm ready to listen. but not now, i had a rough morning. >> on "cbs this morning." kate gosselin signed up to look for new love on a tv dating series. >> it's like the bachelorette meets the deadliest catch. captioning funded by cbs welcome to "cbs this morning." mitt romney is starting his

seven-day visit to europe and the middle east. trying to show the world that he is ready to be president of the united states. >> before leaving the u.s. romney told the world why the current president doesn't deserve a second determine. jan crawford is in london which is romney's first stop on the trip. good morning jan. >> good morning erica and charlie. romney is now here in london. but before he left the united states last night he delivered a blistering attack on the foreign policy of president obama. he was speaking with several thousand veterans and he criticized everything from the way the president has handled iran, dealings with russia even the recent leaks that are allegedly coming out of the white house. he didn't offer much in the way of alternative vision. >> this is a national security crisis. >> romney sharply criticized president obama for allegedly leaking classified intelligence information for political gain. reinforcing his argument that

the president is putting his reelection in front of -- >> it's contempt i believe, betrays us and compromises the men and women in the field. >> he's referring to the osama bin laden raid and successful u.s. drone strikes. the obama administration denies any responsibility. but on monday he democratic senator dianne feinstein who chairs the intelligence committee said the white house is connected to the disclosures. >> i think the white house has to understand that some of this is coming from its ranks. >> the next day, feinstein down played her remarks saying i shouldn't have speculated. i don't know the source of the leaks but the damage was done her accusation gave romney ammunition. >> what kind of white house would reveal classified material for political gain? i'll tell you right now, mine will not. >> the speech was part of a full frontal assault on a president's

foreign policy which romney argues has weakened the united states' standing. but romney gave few specifics on what his alternative would be. he criticized the president for announcing a withdrawal day for troops in afghanistan, while also advocating the same timeline for ending combat operations in 2014. speaking at the same venue monday, the president argued that romney's criticism lacks specifics. >> there are those who argued against a timeline for ending this war or against talking about it publicly. but you know what that's not a plan for america's security either. >> now why would romney go on the attack last night before he came here to london? that's because he says he respects this long held notion that politics really stops at america's shores and that he would never come here meeting with these foreign leaders and criticize the president or american foreign policy. charlie and erica? >> jan crawford, thank you. david axelrod is here with us from chicago. good morning, david. >> good morning, charlie.

>> contemptibli conduct, a betrayal. where are we? >> i think what we heard was a bunch of bellicose, bellicose language from governor romney with nothing behind it. a bunch of bellicose bloviating from john bolton's pen. when you get beneath it as jan mentioned, there's no vision for american policy his critiques were nonsense. he wants to talk about anything other than the fact that this is the president that responsibly ended the war in iraq who focused attention on al qaeda and destroyed its leadership, brought osama bin laden to justice and rebuilt our alliances. that's a very, very proud record and the american people know that. the only news in the speech was what jan mentioned, which was after months of hammering the president for his decision to bring our active combat involvement in afghanistan to an end by the end of 2014 governor

romney endorsed his decision yesterday in front of this group. >> let me speak to this question of contemptible and leaks out of the white house. senator feinstein, you know what she has said perhaps the white house isn't coming forward with information about how it is connected. >> you heard what she said yesterday. she has no information about where these leaks came from. the two authors of the books in question said that their leaks didn't come from the white house. and there are active investigations going on right now. so we'll know the answer to that. governor romney sent out a man to represent him or a statement from a former official to the bush administration who was involved in the scooter libby leak scandal. now he says he won't engage in leaks. this was a diversionary tactic because it's very hard to talk about the president's leadership on national security on foreign

policy and criticize what he's done. >> all right. here's what governor romney said on monday. the president talking about president obama, when he called me and congratulated me on the presumptive nominee, said america who benefit from an important and healthy debate. i haven't seen that coming from the team. it's been almost all attack ads on all sorts of peripheral issues. when will this campaign become positive and an important debate about america's future? >> charm i, this debate is all about america's future and about whether we're going to have policies that will promote and build and rebuild the security of the middle class in this country. whether we're going to go down to the top down economic policies of the last decade that led to disaster. that's what this debate is about. i would point out that much of our advertising has been positive. we've been from the very

beginning of this campaign we've been the target of hundreds -- more than $100 million of negative ads from governor romney and his colleagues. he's the one and you heard it in his speech yesterday, he's not offering a positive alternative. by the way, on the speech charlie, how can you speak to a veterans organization, never mention al qaeda, make a foreign policy, never mention al qaeda and speak to a veterans organization and never talk about veterans and what you're going to do for them. governor romney isn't meeting the test. >> erica hill is with me. >> quickly, david to the point of negative advertising. be honest here both sides have plenty of negative advertising out there. it's starting to impact voters. wall street journal polling says four out of ten have a more negative or less favorable view of candidates and you're fighting for a smaller portion of undecided voters. 8%. how concerned are you that you're turning those people off? >> if you look at the ads we're running now, erica, it lays out a specific choice about how

we're going to lead our economy forward. wee spent a full month laying out the record of the last 3.5 years in television and the battleground states. i have yet to see governor romney match that in his own advertising. but yes, we are going to call -- governor romney has many questions to answer about what he'll do in the future and about what he's done in the past. he hopes not to talk about any of it. that's not going to happen in a presidential race. >> david x thank you for joining us this morning. >> good to be with you. the first funeral is scheduled today for a victim of the movie massacre. family and friends will remember gordon cowden a 51-year-old father of two, one of the 12 people shot dead on friday. >> as anna werner reports, investigators are still gathering evidence against james holmes the 24-year-old suspect. anna, good morning. >> good morning, erica and charlie. the lights are still on here at the century 16 theaters. there's been a chain-link put up

around the building. authorities are expected to return the theater to its owner sometime this week. no word when that will happen. lawyers for holmes are expected to get their chance to go through the building soon. prosecutors got a chance tuesday to look inside the theater where james holmes allegedly went on his violent and deadly rampage. they left after spending more than an hour inside building their case. the team including lead prosecutor karen pearson, also combed through holmes' 800-square foot apartment as investigators look for any possible motive survivors are offering new details about that terrifying night. >> i'm hearing him yell at people and then you just hear the rounds going off, just bm boom boom boom. >> stephanie davies saved her friend allie young from bleeding to death. she told reporters holmes would shout, what are you doing? i said stand up. he would pick people up she

said. i saw him stand over someone. i just see hair and him holding the shirt and boom. weeks before the shooting holmes failed part of his first-year exam at the university of colorado and dropped out. he had been living on more than $26,000 in government and school grants. though it's not clear whether he used that money to fund his purchases of guns and ammunition. >> it's the national standard for supplying living spy pends to ph.d. students to devote 100% of their effort to research. >> at an aurora hospital where victims are recovering batman himself, christian bale made a surprise visit tuesday. the star met with hospital staff and the survivors who had been watching his movie the night of the shooting. afterwards, he and his wife took time to place flowers at a nearby memorial for those killed. >> and as you said a first memorial service is planned for today. family members for the 12 victims are beginning to prepare

for their final goodbyes. many memorial services taking place throughout the week. erica and charlie, back to you. >> anna werner thank you. senior correspondent and former fbi assistant director john miller joins us. take us to the crime scene. what are they looking for? what do they hope to find? >> as anna told us they're going to release it the plan was to give it back today. but the defense wants to look at it. that's going to take time. authorities want to do much more advanced crime scene work using the newest tools to figure out bullet trajectory but also to be able to go back to the crime scene virtually as many times as they need to and literally ask questions. what does that mean? yesterday i talked to how sherman and -- from the nypd crime scene unit. they use a nikon 360 -- nikon station tool or the lika version where they go in and map the evidence points in a scene like this one. we used the theater as a backdrop to show what they would

do. then they can take that mapping, which is measure digitally with lasers and they can take say, ballistic evidence and where the shell casings are to show where the gunman was standing, snap that tool on and it will show them the trajectory of the bullets. then they can take the witness statements, add in where people say they were and what they were doing and you can turn this around 360, you can flip this from different views. you can do exact, precise measurements showing everything. when you get in front of a jury and you have those witnesses testifying when you're doing your ballistics all of this can be enormously helpful. >> it's important to make the case in court? >> it's important to make the case in court. but it's also important to learn what happened. henry lee, one of the premiere forensic scientists ever says with a lot of things in life you get many chances, marriage, two, three times. but with a crime scene you get one shot. what these kinds of tools do is they give you a second and third shot to go back to the scene with a 360-degree digital image

that sees the whole thing. you can look at it from any angle. you can measure from any angle. you can go back and literally add scenarios in and take them out. for instance, a person says i was standing here when i saw this. you can tell from the reconstruction, if you were standing there, could you have seen that and so on. >> fascinating stuff. there have been a lot of questions about the money used to purchase the guns and the bullets. you have more information on that this morning. >> so we got the return from our freedom of information request from the national institutes of health, which is a federal agency in bethesda. they broke down the grants for us. nih gave our suspect $21,600 in the total grant. he also got $5,000 from the university of colorado. the idea is when you're working on a ph.d. you are so intense, you don't have time to have a job. this was dispersed in monthly stipends of $2,216.67. this was his only known income. so this brings up, you know in

the most unintended consequence possible, what you have here is the specter of a federally funded shooting. because this appears to be the money he had access to during the time he was planning this. >> there's a gag rule in effect now? >> there is. the district attorney sat down with authorities. the judge gave a rule saying you had to stick to the conservative rules of what you could say in a regular case. but the district attorney is going beyond that and asked them mott to say anything. all comments will come through the d.a.'s office. >> as far as we know, nothing has come from the mouth of the suspect? >> i've been looking around this case from other angles and you know, they had high hopes for that computer. they were just able to mirror that hard drive on monday which means their first real chance to start to go through it was yesterday. no headlines out of that. they have more computer forensics to do. but from the computer examination so far, no sign of a motive. from the interviews of friend and associates while there are

different theories of things that could have come together to make a motive there's no one that exceeds another. it's still unclear as to why this happened. >> thank you, john. this morning, russia's foreign minister is accuseing the united states of justifying terrorism in syria. he spoke out after hillary clinton said the u.s. would work closely with the rebels as they take control of more territory. i spoke with the ambassador to the united nations who said u.s. policy is just making things worse. >> the american policy that's disastrous is confrontational assault on the assad regime is not working. it's causing more and more violence and i think the danger of major destabilization in syria and beyond is very great. they need to shed the blame. it's russia. and now they keep coming up with various arguments to blame russia for it. russian sale of arms then why

doesn't russia take us and why doesn't the uk take assad. british and -- family ties. it's not serious conversation which you like to engage in. >> meanwhile, opposition leaders say two more of syria's ambassadors defected this morning. there were violent protests in anaheim, california overnight sparked by recent police shootings. police fire pepper balls and bean bag rounds to demonstrators outside city hall and reportedly arrested five people over the weekend. police shot two men to death, one apparently unarmed. city officials want the u.s. attorney to investigate. the family of one of the men filed a $50 million lawsuit. it is time to show you some of this morning's headlines from around the globe. new orleans time picayune reports on a deal to reform the city's a police department. eric holder announced a wide ranging agreement yesterday. it will overhaul the department's use of force,

accusing sea world of putting its people in danger. >> when whale trainer ken peters dove into the water, he was ready for the finale of this 2006 sea world show in san diego. instead of the planned spectacle where the trainer is launched into the air, kasatka grabbed him by the ankles and thrashed him around and pulled him to the bottom of the pool. >> the trainer is in the water stuck with one of the whales. >> this chilling video that came out during a court case shows the whale holding peters underwater for at least a minute at a time. >> it goes on and on and on. it must have been terrifying. >> david kirby wrote death at sea world about whale attacks at the parks. he believes the whale was agitated by the cries of her nearby calf. >> imagine being a mother and your child is calling for you and you're not allowed to go

comfort your child. you have to perform a show. it might make you angry. we see the whale pulling ken down to the bottom. then she brings him back up. you think, oh, thank god. she's not going to kill him. and he's trying to remain calm and you don't know what's going to happen next. then she decides to go back down. >> frantic trainers through a giant net in the water. when peters managed to free his foot, he swam for safety. kasatka turned and came after him. peters barely managed to get away. >> in a statement to cbs news sea world says this video clearly shows the trainer's remarkable composure and the skillful execution of an emergency response plan both of which helped result in a successful outcome with minor injuries. a california workplace safety investigator stated if someone hasn't been killed already, it is only a matter of time before it does happen. it happened four years later

york city tuesday afternoon, an overflow crowd sounded off about soda. >> i'm not overweight because of big gulp sodas. frankly, it's because i eat too much pasta, pastrami sandwiches pizza, bagels and cream cheese. >> the issue is whether to limit the serving sizes of drinks at city regulated food service establishments. the idea proposed by mayor michael bloomberg is his effort to combat obesity. >> this is becoming a devastating public health issue. it's an epidemic. >> but the proposal has sparked protests. from cries that the government is overreaching to complaints that enforcement would be haphazard. the city can regulate restaurants, but grocery stores for instance would not be subjected to the same restrictions. among the loudest opponents are the food and beverage industries. >> we are concerned that this could trickle across the snags.

>> she's the director of nutrition for the national restaurant association. >> a step toward progress. there is an obesity epidemic. >> the tactics taken are not in the -- there's no evidence to indicate that will impact obesity. >> there are plenty of scientific studies showing two things. one, if people are served larger portions of things they eat more and second, they're not aware of if. >> this man of the rud center points out that as americans, we consume on average 40 gallons of soda each year. >> it's the single greatest source of added sugar in the american diet. they're empty calories. >> a sugary drink this size 32 ounces, would be off limits but so would something this size, 20 ounces like this vitamin water. the city puts the limit at something this size. 16 ounces. there is one thing that

working on the story and in the makeup room, it sparked discussion. very strong opinions. >> either with the mayor or not with the mayor, it is how damaging obesity is to our health. >> that's what he says. we've got to do something. the board of health is pointing to measures they've taken in transfats, in smoking and saying look this is an important step. >> seth nice to see you. thank you. the summer olympics are around the corner but is london prepared? from traffic to security turns out there's a lot of frustration to go around. that's ahead on "cbs this morning." >> cbs "healthwatch" sponsored by cal trait. done even more to move us. because vitamin d3 helps bones absorb calcium, caltrate's double the d. it now has more than any other brand to help maximize calcium absorption. so caltrate women can move the world.

>> back together. >> feels good. >> welcome back to "cbs this morning." i'm gayle king. >> i'm charlie rose with erica hill. we have new information this morning on the jackson family feud that is getting uglier and more confusing by the day. >> i'll say. it appears to be about michael jackson's estate and who should have control of it. kevin frazier has been talking with the jacksons and joins us with the latest. it's a hot mess as the kids say. >> yes. >> is it fair to say about the money or who gets control of the jackson children? >> money is one of the motivating factors. but also understand that this is a family. this family is fractured right now because they feel that katherine jackson's health is in danger. they feel at the same time that the executors of michael jackson's estate are fraudulent and stealing money, as randy jackson has said from the

family. there are many issues. michael jackson's estate was $500 million in debt when he passed away. now, since he has died it is believed that the estate has earned about $1 billion. his family or at least katherine jackson, receives $86,000 a month as the guardian of the children to help take care of the children. now, if you do the math $86,000 isn't that much when you are talking about $500 million in earnings. >> kevin, who takes care of the children of michael jackson? >> that's katherine jackson. when katherine jackson is out of town, there are nannies and trent jackson who drives katherine jackson, who helps take care of the children. marlon jackson is staying at the house while he's out here in california. there's a constant stream of family inside the house and around the house. it's not like the kids are home alone. there's a myth that the kids are running wild they're home alone. katherine is gone. there's a lot of family around. there's always an eye on the

children. >> we all appreciate the genius of michael jackson. it was clear and evident in terms of the talent. why are we so fascinated by this story and his family? >> you know in a sense, the jacksons are american royalty. you know i was with the brothers on saturday night, sunday night for their concert. when the brothers were at the concert on the stage, it was just pure bliss. when they come off the stage, then things seem to be fractured. but i was told by a family member on sunday that everything was fine. anyone who wanted to talk to katherine jackson could talk to her. there was no issue. by monday, when i heard about the issues there was all of a sudden a fracture in the family and then when i sat down with marlon on tuesday, i got this response. >> we've been told that our mother is safe. she's doing well. but we have not spoken with her. we have not talked with her.

and i don't know where my mother -- i don't know where my mother is. whatever doctor is saying i can't talk to my mother you call me. i'm finished. i'm sorry. >> marlon jackie and teal very upset the fact that they haven't seen or talked to their mother. >> that's why it's so confusing. i saw pictures of katherine jackson playing uno at rebbie's house. they say she's in arizona at rebbie's house. paris jackson is sending out tweets saying i have not been able to talk to my grandmother. if it's that simple why doesn't somebody pick up the phone and communicate? >> that's the thing. marlon jackie and tito want to talk to their mother. they haven't been able to reach her. the other side of the family the siblings are saying mom is not getting on the phone. everything that's stressing her

out, we want to keep her away especially from the executors whom we feel are taking advantage her and michael's children. you have a portion of the family who decided we're going to keep mom in arizona, going to let her get away for a while and another part of the family saying we just want to talk to her her. they expected to see her in albuquerque and arizona and in los angeles. when they didn't see her in los angeles, they became really upset and worried. >> kevin, what was the relationship like prior to this? could it just be that she's decided, she's a grown woman, she can pick up the phone and answer a phone call. was there a strain prior to this current drama? >> in my opinion, i think it's that the family really wants to control the estate. and the children. the five that signed that letter want to control the estate and in getting control of the estate, they have to get katherine jackson away for a while. they also -- jermaine wrote an impassioned plea on twitter. he says my mother's health is at

stake. if you have ever been around katherine jackson and the amount of people that are constantly talking to her, asking for things looking for things it's tough and taxing on an 82 career old woman. keep this in mind. the jackson blowers,rothers, jermaine and -- they'll be in san jose on stage and perform on friday night. >> it's crazy. what's so interesting, michael jackson worked so hard to avoid this while he was alive, the publicity. does the family say anything about that? >> i've talked to janet many times. one thing that janet has always pointed out and let's keep in mind janet does not need mi money. janet has always said she wants michael's children to grow up and live as normal a life as possible, especially paris. her concern is that she wants paris to stay away from the entertainment business until she's 18. then she can make the decision. if janet had her warey, paris

would go to college and live her life. she wants them to have a childhood. >> kevin frazier, nice to see you. good morning. it's flat out beautiful. 73 right now. a high of about 88 degrees. sunny, less humid a great afternoon. what a beautiful evening it's going to be out of the glare of the sun. 66 clear to partly cloudy over night. hold on, here it comes again for 2 days, 100 tomorrow and friday. thunderstorms guaranteed friday afternoon. it sets us for a greek yogurt has become a somewhat trendy super food. one yogurt company is seeing skyrocketing. you'll meet the ceo next on "cbs this morning."

and now -- >> fully equipped yogurt company for sale. >> i went to them next day and saw this old plant, almost 90 years's old and the walls are all -- people are closing it. at that moment i said i should buy it. and everybody thought i was crazy. and with the sba loan, august 2005, i purchased the plant. and i hired the -- to build from the 55. this was a big corporation. was closing this plant. the odds were so against us that -- and who are you and what do you think you will do? but we focus on the quality of the yogurt. we made the cup, i spent almost two years that this cup of yogurt is perfect. >> talk about, hamdi, greek yogurt. you said you thought yogurt in this country wasn't good because some people would say, hey, our yogurt is okay. what's the difference between

greek yogurt that makes yours better? >> first of all, you start from the fresh milk. has to be milk. nothing else. you put your cultures in it, you make the yogurt and once you make the yogurt, then you strain it. if you're in your mother's kitchen or from the region, they say they put in the cheesecloth and strain it overnight. then you have the greek yogurt. that's what it is. because it's straining, you remove some of the lick windquidliquid. >> it makes it thicker. >> the thing about greek yogurt you take something out to make it greek yogurt you don't add things. >> you know what i love about this story, gayle. here is an immigrant. >> yes. >> come here, you have an idea. you get a loan from the government, sba loan. you now employ 2,000 people. this is job creation at its best. >> yes. >> it's an american story. >> only happens in america, charlie. one thing bothers me a lot is we

started from a nine years old plant which is closed. we started in a town called evanston where cell phone barely works and started with five people. and today we're number one brand in the country. we're getting close to a billion dollars in sales and still 100% independent. this type of story doesn't happen everywhere. so what bothers me the most when there's bad news everywhere one thing that they forget the spirit of you can do it it's still alive. it's alive in south evanston. there were five people. days christmas, thanksgiving every day to make it. today the response -- >> ever pinch yourself and go wow? >> what does chobani mean? >> it means shepherd. it's a very sweet, simple name. in greek and turkish, in that region, it reminds --

health care is a nearly $3 trillion a year industry. nearly $800 billion goes just for hospital care. >> the price is so high partly because of the way americans get care. rebecca jarvis has the story of how one doctor started a business to change that. >> erica, gayle, good morning to you. the company is called sherpaa. it was created by a physician with an entrepreneurial spirit. he is convinced that using 21st century technology will revolutionize and streamline the way we seek medical help.

>> i think health care just happened. nobody has ever questioned it. >> but dr. jay parkinson is questioning it and he has an answer he hopes will revolutionize the way patients get care. >> do you think right now the experience as a patient is a positive one? >> absolutely not. if you count up the number of people you have to come in contact with whenever you want to go to the doctor, there's so many unnecessary steps. >> from the time he graduated medical school ten years ago parkinson has been trying to do things differently. he set up a practice in brooklyn making house calls to patients who scheduled their own appointments online. his new company, sherpaa, is one of several startups looking to use technology to help people get better. >> we're 24/7 e-mail and phone akccess to a group of doctors in new york city who you can call or e-mail. 70% of the time we'll solve the problem over e-mail or the phone. >> for example, if you've

suffered a nasty cut, snap a picture, e-mail it to sherpaa and a doctor will respond immediately with instructions. if you need stitches sherpaa will schedule a same-day appointment with one of the 100 specialists they work with. that could cut out the expense and long wait on average more than four hours of a visit to the e.r. >> instead of being a $4,000 charge, it's a thousand dollars charge. david karp is the founder of tumblr. how much of the costs goes towards health care. >> it's a tremendous amount. particularly as we get bigger. >> his 110-person company began using sherpaa to bring down the costs which can be crippling to a small business. karp has used it and so has amanda ferry after she fainted on a business trip. >> the third time i fainted, at that point the people who i was with who luckily were friend of

mine were like we're taking you to the emergency room. >> instead she called sherpaa, the doctor gave her advice and scheduled her an appointment with a neurologist. >> i definitely saved money on in. >> you did? >> the emergency costs alone. >> sherpaa doesn't replace health insurance. but incompetent steadted weeds out inefficiency like an every man's concierge service. >> big part of the -- sherpaa has figured out a way to make that accessible for an early stage company like ours. >> and gives them an opportunity to offer employees benefits they might find in more established companies. >> first time startup tumblr is able to keep up with the benefits that a huge corporation like google is able to offer their employees. >> sherpaa is still a new company, so it's early to tell how successful it will or become. its client list expands. so will sherpaa's need to provide enough doctors to cover the patients' needs that's

law school. that cuts more into ocd behavior than to my journal. you know when i first set out to write this character, i was a little intimidated. i turned 40 this year she's 18. i didn't have that angst-ridden childhood, i didn't think i did until i read the journals. you really remember that even a happy relatively happy teenager is plagued with issues. and doubt. >> it's interesting, emily, from your perspective, i had a pretty good childhood. then you go back and look and maybe things weren't so great. i thought that was interesting to hear. >> they were definitely emotional and turbulent. i just don't think teenagers have much perspective. >> it shows that you're a normal teenager. like what everybody does. >> yeah. >> you know the story figures around an adoption. so i figured a, either you were adopted or your children who were adopted yet you have no adoption in your life but i write about it so well.

baggage for the women who had -- so marion the mother of kirby, the well-named 18-year-old she gave up for adoption. that's got to be kind of fun and intriguing to write about too to imagine how that secret would be held and all of the people it affected. >> absolutely. that was the true first seed of this novel more than adoption. what happens when you harbor a lifelong secret. what does that do to you and relationships around you. the big life secrets i didn't want to cover incest or abuse or -- i wanted a situation that could ultimately have a lot of positive attributes. adoption, there's great up lifting things about it. >> secret within a secret. what you show us clearly, nothing good comes of a secret. >> you didn't like approximate her for that did you? >> no i didn't. >> but i'm cheering you on emily. >> you have to like her to like

impact on the psyche? >> the actual cash was many many billions of dollars. there's an accounting thing that led to that sort of one-time thing. i don't think you should read too much into it. microsoft on a financial basis research basis is a phenomenally strong company. the article said maybe there wasn't enough focus in the company anymore. you're known for your focus on whatever task you have at hand. do you see that there's a lack of focus, trying to do too many things at once? >> no. i -- big companies with big r&d budgets need to be very ambitious. ironically, most people talk about what you miss not that you're doing too much. the magic of software shows itself in a broad set of ways.

and the primary products get almost all the resources. >> do you ever miss being there? >> certainly, that was my primary focus for my 20s to my 40s. i loved that work. the people who work there are close friends. i do spend part-time there. i am chairman of the board and that's fun. sometimes i wish i was still back there. you know, i'm very happy with my choice. i knew that when microsoft was successful, i wanted to give the money back to society in some way. i knew i wanted to be involved in innovation. that's what i like to work on and where i think i can help steer things. >> do you engulf 15 million people living with -- by 2015 is it realistic, reasonable? >> that is an aggressive goal. it's within reach. it's a possibility. it's one of those goals that

would take good funding and great execution to get all the way there. >> the u.s. government is responsible for 70% of the funding for hiv and hiv-related research. any concern that that could -- for 2013. the prospect is scary. this is not that there will be one less missile. this is saying we're going to have to take people off of aids drugs. and the assumption is that the funding will be continued. but it's straightforward to say this is a life and death issue. >> if the money doesn't come from the u.s.? >> then some people will die. >> there's no more else you can list at this point. >> more than any other government program -- because of the investment, let's put it in the pause term. the investment that started under president bush called pep

fund, the president obama continued and the congress has supported, because of that many millions of people are alive. and so everybody should feel wonderful about the u.s. role in this. >> why is it so important to you? >> well these are people i met. this is a great tragedy. it's really a test of how much we care about our fellow human beings. this is killing more than a war would kill. millions a year dying is bigger than all the traffic deaths all the things that we normally think about. it's not the reason i'm involved in it. i actually had a cousin who died and i got to see firsthand, he got sick before the drugs were available. so it was a death sentence for everyone then. no matter where you lived. so being part of getting the

community together to over time bring this to an end, there's no better use of my time and energy. >> bill gates in conversation. somebody that i know well and pfriend, i've interviewed him, many many many times. he's fascinating and you brought this out. this passion he now has, which is every bit as passionate as it was for the company. he feels it. he says that all lives are equal and it's driven him. he feels the fact that people will die if budge et cetera are cut. >> right. if budgets are cut and in general. that has really been the focus of the gates foundation. in many ways it's about saving children's lives. that impact so many different issues and diseases across the board. it has to do with vac nations and treatment of things like hiv and aids. sticks to your point, that's where his passion is. saving a life. >> he does pilot programs where the government can come in later with the kind of funding capacity. these issues are so big that no

foundation can do it alone. you need government's help. interesting guidelines. >> i think so. calling it miracle in colorado. two survivors of the shooting with have a brand new baby. we'll find out how everyone is doing. tomorrow phil mickelson in studio 57. we're talking golf and i couldn't be happier. more on "cbs this morning."
