captioning funded by cbs good morning. happy friday, everybody. i'm maggie rodriguez along with harry smith. julie is off today. we want to get right to a developing story this morning. indonesia's president is vowing to hunt down the terrorists responsible for the bomb attacks at two hotels. the explosions at the jw marriott and the ritz-carlton in jakarta killed at least 9 people and injured 50. let's go to beijing this morning and cbs news correspondent terry mccarthy. good morning, terry. >> reporter: good morning, maggie. it had been four years since indonesia has seen a major terrorist attack, so it came as a double shock this morning when bombs went off in not just one but two separate hotels in jakarta. the twin bombings came five minutes apart in the restaurants of the marriott and ritz-carlton

hotels as guests were sitting down for breakfast. >> the smoke covered the buildings. i couldn't see clearly. i saw that the firefighters and ambulances was just coming. and then it was just chaos to see the people running away from the two buildings. >> reporter: a third unexploded bomb was found on the 18th floor of the marriott hotel. it was removed by bomb disposal experts. suspicion immediately fell on jemaah islamiya, an extremist group affiliated with al qaeda. they had carried out a series of previous bombings in bali and jakarta between 2000 and 2005, targeting mostly foreigners. today marks a black spot in our history, said indonesia's president. once again, a bombing attack by terrorists in jakarta. the bombs will be a major setback to indonesia's attempts to attract foreign tourists and investors. in fact, already the british

soccer team, manchester united, who were due to play a local team in jakarta this weekend and stay in the ritz-carlton hotel, has cancelled their trip. >> thanks, terry. lydia is an american who lives in jakarta and witnessed the bombings. she joins us on the phone. miss ruddy, good morning. please tell us what you saw and what you heard. miss ruddy, can you hear us? we will try to re-establish that connection, and we'll get back to her in a moment. harry, over to you. >> thanks very much, maggie. cbs national security consultant juan zawarte is in our washington, d.c. bureau. he is just back from indonesia. how surprised are you about these attacks? >> i think most security experts are surpriseded. ji has undergone a severe crackdown by indonesian authorities and regional authorities in singapore and

malaysia. so this is a bit of a surprise. yet security experts know that jemaah islamiya is a capable, adaptable network. it has cells that still operate. one of their chief bomb makers is still on the loose. this is not all together a surprise although ji has been down and out. >> we should explain about indonesia. it's a multicultural nation. it's a democracy. these are western hotels. these bombs are very specifically aimed at western targets. >> that's exactly right, harry. this is a signature attack from jemaah islamiya, which has ties to al qaeda, and the broader violent islamic movement. these are soft targets. these are emblematic western targets in the heart of jakarta's business district. so these are the types of targets, as they've hit in the past from 2002 to 2005, that are emblematic for jemaah islamiya, which is why most experts think that that's who's responsible. >> and it's interesting, because

there seems to be a real degree of success in terms of the indonesians cracking down on this, that here we are some several years past the other attacks that they should crop up again. >> that's right. it's not since the last bali bombing in 2005 that we've seen jemaah islamiya attack. this is a bit of a surprise. that said, it demonstrates that indonesia's work is not yet done. there are cells that exist. there's a support infrastructure that continues to support activities like we saw today. this will backfire, i think, though because it will give president yudhoyono and the indonesians greater impetus to crack down. >> we appreciate it. thank you very much. >> we want to get back to lydia ruddy, who lives in jakarta and witnessed the bombing. miss ruddy, good morning. can you please tell us what you saw and what you heard. >> i'm staying at a house across the street from the ritz-carlton, and at about 7:40 this morning i was working when

all of a sudden there was a huge explosion. i went outside and looked across the street and down a little ways, and there was smoke coming up from the area of the marriott. i went back inside to grab my camera, and by the time i came back out just a couple of minutes later, the second bomb had gone off across the street at the ritz-carlton. >> did you see any casualties? >> i saw some. as i walked up towards the hotel, it was eerily calm. there were very few people around. i think one of the men i've seen a lot on the news is a jogger, who i saw him jogging up. there were people starting to come out of the building. smoke was pouring out of the windows. and then probably five minutes in, more people started coming out. they also start taking people out in vehicles. i think a lot of the worst wounded were taken out in

vehicles. however, there were some people that had cuts that came out into the street and were being -- there were medical people in the street after ten minutes or so. >> it had been quite a few years since the last major terrorist attack there. is there a sense that the anti-terrorist presence there really had things under control? is there a sense of safety, and is that gone now? >> i don't know how things will change in the sense of safety. i feel safe here. i feel safer here than in many places in the united states. that may sound a little bit naive given this morning's events, but there have definitely been major efforts with the indonesian president and in cooperation with, i think, australian and american governments. just earlier this week, there was someone arrested -- it could have been even yesterday in

central java. so you hear about things, but it's not like in the united states where for a while there we were living under constant threat of terrorist attack.k[ >> lydia ruddy, thank you so much for sharing your story with us this morning. now here's harry. >> thanks, maggie. pope benedict xvi went to the hospital this morning after he took a bad fall in northern italy. let's go to london.cbs news correspondent sheila mcvicar has the story on that. >> it's not such a good day for pope benedict xvi. he's on vacation in northern italy, and apparently overnight he slipped and fell in his bath. hospital sources tell cbs news the 82-year-old pope has fractured his right wrist. there are conflicting stories about how serious that fracture is. some media outlet ins italy are reporting he's had a local anesthetic and may be undergoing some surgery. we don't know why the pope has

slipped, but there have been growing concerns about his health just last week. he's still carrying out a full public schedule. just last week he met with president obama. he is known to have high blood pressure, and on recent public occasions, he is sometimes seen to weaken. >> sheila, thanks. now to the economy here at home. goldman sachs and jp morgan have recently posted far better than expected earnings reports, and wall street is now closely watching citigroup and bank of america today. cbs news correspondent priya david is at the new york stock exchange with more. pria, good morning. >> reporter: maggie, good morning to you. we just got word in that bank of america has beaten the earnings expectations. ge has as well although their revenue was down a little bit more than expected. for the profits, though, they both exceeded expectations. the dow is up almost 7% so far this week, fueled in large part because of the financial sector. headline from here at the stock exchange is that banks are back to profitability. goldman sachs posted a record-breaking .4 billion in quarterly profits.

jp morgan posted $2.7 billion. >> people don't understand why we gave these guys money and now they're making record profits. >> reporter: some say it's a sign that the nation is on the path to economic recovery. >> as the economy starts to grow again, growth tends to happen at the top. >> reporter: and it's the top that's benefitting. only a month after goldman sachs paid back its $10 billion in t.a.r.p. money, it's celebrating a record $11.5 billion in compensation and benefits for the first half of the year. that's nearly $387,000 per employee. almost 5 1/2 times more than the average american household brings in all year. >> people are really upset. >> reporter: unemployment is still climbing, expected to top 10% this year, triggering the highest rate of foreclosures since the great depression. 4% of all homeowners with a mortgage. 20 miles from wall street in yonkers, new york. >> i found out i was going to be laid off about a month and a half ago.

>> reporter: nora lyon is not taking home a wall street bonus, but rather collecting unemployment. >> i think certain people, groups find ways to make a whole lot of money in times like this while the ordinary folks just have to try to bear through it. >> reporter: in part, big banks are thriving in these rocky economic times because they bet both sides. so the financial crisis is actually providing opportunities for many of them to profit even as the broader economy continues to struggle. maggie? >> cbs' priya david. thanks, pria. we want to get you over to the news desk now. russ mitchell is off. jeff glor is standing in. good morning. >> good morning, everyone. a funeral is scheduled for today for melanie and byrd billings, the florida parents of 17 children who were shot dead in their home. the parents were shot dead, we should say. cbs news correspondent don teague is in pensacola, florida, with more. >> reporter: good morning. the attorney for the billings family tells us all of the children are being cared for by

relatives today, and there are no plans to separate them. meanwhile, investigators continue their search for answers. one week after the brazen murders of byrd and melanie billings, friends and relatives of the couple gathered for a private wake in a pensacola church. >> everybody's shocked, but everybody wants to know what really happened. that's the big question. >> reporter: investigators say they're close to answering that question. >> there obviously are loose ends to tie up. >> reporter: seven men and a woman have been arrested in connection with the murders though authorities say more arrests could follow. investigators have also recovered a safe stolen from the billings' home and a number of guns, including the murder weapon. >> this was a home invasion robbery. we think it's as simple as that. >> reporter: according to court documents, the safe was found hidden in the backyard of pamela long wiggins' home. she was arrested on her yacht wednesday, charged as an accessory after the fact in the murders.

the seven men who police say stormed the billings home drove away in a minivan owned by wiggins. what investigators don't know is why the billings were targeted. friends and relatives don't know either but now want justice. and the drug enforcement agency is involved with this case, but officials here tell us the dea was brought in to investigate the suspects, not the victims. jeff? >> don teague in pensacola. don, thank you this morning. the naacp is 100 years old, and president obama joined the celebration in new york last night. mr. obama said, without the naacp's efforts, he would not be president. he also said race relations in america can still be improved. >> there probably has never been less discrimination in america than there is today. i think we can say that. but make no mistake, the pain of discrimination is still felt in america. >> the president said he wants

young people to "be aspiring to be scientists, engineers, doctors, and teachers, not just ballers and rappers." all right. see, i just wanted to be a weather man. dave price is trying to show me how. >> there is still time. just watch and learn. >> take it away. >> good morning, everyone. friday it is. real quickly, let's go through it. that's the cold front. it's a strong one. mid-atlantic states, you're seeing a combination of warm moist air coming in, southeasterly breeze from the atlantic and the cold air from behind the front. that means strong storms potential potentially. it's still cold in the upper midwest, or the northern great lakes, we'll call it. keep in mind, 50s and 60s again. dallas, you'll see strong storms. temperatures in the triple digits. the weekend you'll cool down. high heat, look at that all across the west from the rockies to the coastline. temperatures in the 110s to 115s in areas around arizona and the desert sections of california.

that's a quick loo >> more weather in just about 15 minutes. folks, back to you at the desk. >> thanks very much, dave. still to come this morning, mismatched headstones, other shocking allegations from arlington national cemetery. and michael jackson's legacy. we're hearing previously unreleased music from the king of pop when we come back. ache d all over.

i felt this deep lingering pain that was a complete mystery to me. my doctor diagnosed it as fibromyalgia muscle pain and then he recommended lyrica. fibromyalgia is thought to be the result of over-active nerves that cause chronic, widespread pain. lyrica is fda-approved to help relieve the unique pain of fibromyalgia. and with less pain, i can do more during my day. how sweet is that? lyrica is not for everyone. tell you doctor about any serious allergic reaction that causes swelling or affects breathing or skin,

or changes eyesight including blurry vision or muscle pain with fever or tired feeling. lyrica may cause suicidal thoughts or actions in a very small number of people. some of the most common side effects of lyrica are dizziness, sleepiness, weight gain and swelling of hands and feet. do not drink alcohol while taking lyrica. you should never drive or operate machinery until you know how lyrica affects you. if you think you might have fibromyalgia, ask your doctor about lyrica. welcome to chili's. start your three-course meals with a shared appetizer. for a second course, choose two entrees from over 15 chili's favorites, like our big mouth bites -- the mini burgers with giant layers of flavor. or a half-rack of our triple-basted baby back ribs. then save some room to share a decadent dessert. a lot of bold flavors, for a limited time only. chili's --

there are some shocking allegations this morning about the conduct at one of america's most revered sites, arlington national cemetery. cbs news correspondent kimberly dozier reports on how the army may be failing to properly honor many of the country's fallen heroes. kim, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, harry. we've spoken to a former authority from arlington who tells us authorities there are having trouble tracking some of the graves. this is a place that's the last link for the loved ones of some 30,000 troops who are buried there. for some family members who come here, they may be paying their respects at the wrong gravesite. >> where people are buried is not matching the headstones because they're using a paper record keeping system still despite the fact they've spent millions of dollars trying to automate the system. >> reporter: arlington's leadership has been promising

congress to fix it since the year 2000, according to former employee gina gray. in 2008, gray reported the continuing problems with record keeping to the cemetery's then commander, major general richard roe. >> and two days later i was fired, and nothing happened. >> reporter: she is now suing the army. arlington authorities told cbs news they became aware of discrepancies in the stone locators and the burial records last year. they say they're on target to implementing a new computerized system to address the problem. mismatched headstones aren't the only worry for the families whose loved ones are buried here, according to investigative reporter mark benjamin from salon.com. >> and i've watched as the elements have washed the artifacts off the grave. >> reporter: technically, they're not supposed to leave these photographs, letters, or flags, but other war memorials have found a way to make allowances. all the mementos you see at the vietnam war memorial are carefully cataloged and saved. it's a mark of respect to both the living and the dead.

it's not that way at arlington national cemetery. benjamin has been photographing the graves at section 60, where troops from afghanistan and iraq are buried, since memorial day. >> everything is left to rot by the elements. it's scooped up by the workers. except for a few exceptions, it's all thrown in a dumpster. >> reporter: ami neiberger's brother christopher is buried here. this is not how she thought he'd be taken care of. >> it's concerning and even alarming to hear these kinds of things going on. at the same time, our family is still tied to arlington in a very deep and personal and almost spiritual way. because my brother's buried there. >> reporter: arlington cemetery had to cancel an on camera interview because of the pending legal allegations. >> announcer: this portion of "the early show" sponsored by t.wa save mon. ve better.wa t.arlm vo: you don't have to look for sales to save money.

walmart checks other stores' prices and they'll match any advertised price. so instead of searching for "deals" out there... you get everyday low prices, right here. vo: it seems like my life is split in two. there's the life i live. and the life i want to live. fortunately, there's enbrel. enbrel can help relieve pain, stiffness, fatigue, and stop joint damage. because enbrel suppresses your immune system, it may lower your ability to fight infections. serious, sometimes fatal, events including infections, tuberculosis, lymphoma and nervous system... and blood disorders have occurred. before starting enbrel, your doctor should test you for tuberculosis. also ask your doctor if you live in an area... with a greater risk for certain fungal infections. don't start enbrel if you have an infection, like the flu. tell your doctor if you're prone to infections, have cuts or sores, have had hepatitis b, have been treated for heart failure, or if, while on enbrel,

there's some enthusiastic folks out there on the plaza here on a friday. getting ready for a great summer weekend. welcome back to "the early show," everybody. coming up on this half hour, it's a bit of michael jackson's legacy. for the first time we're hearing one of the songs -- sounds suspiciously like "a horse with no name" by america, right? >> and there's a reason for that. >> we'll get to that in a little bit. also ahead this morning, if you have a playset in your backyard, you have to hear what susan koeppen has to say. they can be very dangerous. she'll tell us everything to how it should be anchored to a common problem with swings and the material you should be laying underneath and a whole lot more. all these tips to keep your

child safe in the backyard. first, though, a custody hearing is scheduled for this monday for michael jackson's three children. right now they are staying with the jacksons relatives. cbs news correspondent hattie kauffman has the story. >> reporter: this is where michael jackson grew up, now home to his three children along with many nieces and nephews. a couple of weeks ago, i got a private tour. tell me where we are. >> we are in a picture gallery full of memories. >> reporter: michael jackson filled the walls with photos of himself and the rich and famous, photos that now offer comfort to the children he left behind. >> i talked to a family friend, who says they're all grieving, but they're happy because they're with relatives. >> reporter: the cousins could roam the backyard or even spend time on a home stage. what a difference from the way the kids used to appear with michael jackson, always masked with their faces hidden from the public. >> there's talk that janet has bonded with these children quite a bit since michael jackson's death. and that she has said, i'll step forward, and i will raise them if this is what they want.

>> reporter: the children attended a jehovah's witnesses service this week. >> are the kids familiar with jehovah's witnesses? >> absolutely. >> they know the tenets? >> they know the tenets of the religion, and they believe they're going to see dad again when he is awakened from his sleep, that is, when he is risen from the dead. >> reporter: hattie kauffman, cbs news, los angeles. >> one of the drugs found in jackson's rented home after his death was diprivan. dr. omar manejwala treats people who are addicted to that. he joins us live in our studio. good morning. >> good morning. >> how does that drug make people feel? >> well, that's a mystery to some people because mostly what diprivan is for is to induce coma. so the idea is not to feel anything. sometimes, when people emerge from diprivan, they do feel a sense of euphoria. what happens with diprivan addictions occasionally is people try to play with the doses and get the doses within a window before they induce coma.

>> so that's a typical usage of it. who typically are the people who end up addicted to it? >> well, addiction is a treatable brain disease, and in some respects anybody is susceptible. but with this particular agent, the people who most commonly are addicted are healthcare professionals who have access to it. >> who have access to it. so they know about the experience of having used it. how difficult is it to get if you are -- if you wanted to abuse it? >> well, that depends on where people are. up until a few years ago, it really wasn't controlled very much at all. now some centers have begun to control access to diprivan. by and large, it's still not controlled the way medicines like fentanyl or more powerful addictive medicines. >> that are typically used in anesthesiology? >> correct. >> how rare is this? it's one of those things, i think until now, people almost never heard of. you're just a handful of people in this country who actually

deal with it as an addiction. how rare is it? >> it's quite rare. addiction is common. however, addiction to this particular agent is very rare. the exact incidence isn't known. there was an e-mail survey that was done a few years ago to directors of anesthesiology programs, and it suspected that the incidence was approximately 1 in 1,000. >> how difficult is it for your clients to come clean after being addicted to this? is it more difficult to be rid of than, for instance, alcohol or some other kinds of things people abuse? >> well, i think the main message is that addiction is extremely treatable, and the outcomes for this agent aren't exactly known, but in my experience they fall in line with treatment for other addictive disorders. so that is about 70% or 80% success rate. there was a study that was done by mcclellan and skipper that showed that of 904 physicians who were treated followed for an average of about seven years, they had about an 80% success

rate. >> so it is a treatable thing. >> very much so. >> back to the original question. this whole idea that the reason to use it is to almost feel comatose or this notion of the euphoria when you come out of it? >> correct. that's the initial reason to use it. once the addiction develops, the use becomes compulsive. what we find for most people who use diprivan is that there's a history of trauma or post traumatic stress disorder. not for everyone, but for most people who develop addiction to it. what they're trying to do is blot out the experience of life in some way. so life becomes so difficult for them that they use the diprivan in order to magically disappear, if you will. >> dr. omar manejwala, thank you very much for your information. >> you're quite welcome. >> do appreciate it. dave is at the weather board this friday. ready for a perfect weekend, dave. >> whenever you say that, it makes me nervous, harry. all eyes are on the weather board when it comes to activity. we talked about this in the 7:00 hour.

chilly weather coming down here. cold front barrelling down from the great lakes. warm humid air from the atlantic. what it means for new england, the mid-atlantic states particularly is a combination of high wins, downpours, hail, and building airport delays. through the afternoon maybe into tomorrow morning. keep that in mind and then clearing out by the afternoon in many locations. high heat continues in the southern plains. if there's good news to the bad weather begin to go roll on through, it's that it will cool temperatures down to below 100 degrees. dallas, you've spent much of the month so far in the triple l digits. out west, rockies out west, it is clear, but it is hot with tempatures anywhere from 110 to 115 plus in places like phoenix, arizona, and the desert sections of california. will begin to slowly clear out, bu

to the emergency room every year. our consumer correspondent susan koeppen is here with important information. >> good morning, maggie. we're talking about more than cuts and bruises from outdoor equipment. kids have been seriously hurt, even killed, in their own backyards. one of the biggest dangers is falls. what started as a fun day for caelyn martin. >> we were having a jumping off the swing contest. >> ended with a trip to the emergency room. >> i was making dinner, and i heard caelyn scream. >> caelyn broke her elbow when she jumped and landed the wrong way. every year, 50,000 children go to the hospital after being injured on backyard play sets. 70% of all playground deaths happen at home. >> make sure all the bolts are still tight. make sure there's nothing broken on it. >> john drengenberg is a safety expert with underwriters laboratories. he says parents should inspect their play sets at least once a month. we found several problems with this backyard set behind a house

in chicago. >> number one, this whole play set is not anchored in any way. it could tip over. >> sandbags are a simple solution to keep the play set in place. next, we found missing parts. >> look at this. there's a bolt missing from this slide. that's not a good situation. 50% of your securement is gone. >> and there were problems with the swings. >> we've got something called s-hooks. they're supposed to be closed to the width of a dime. this one clearly isn't. none of the swings are, which means in a bad situation it could come right out, and the child could fall on the ground. >> this jump rope posed a strangulation hazard. >> it's possible kids could do strange things, try to swing from it, maybe get it caught in their clothing. you just don't want ropes hanging from a play set. >> and this playground lacked any kind of padding. >> recommendations are you have a six foot perimeter around your play set with some kind of material that will help absorb shock if a child falls on it.

>> drengenberg says grass is not enough. that's all liz martin had under her play set when caelyn broke her elbow. >> she's learning with be they've all learned not to jump off the swings anymore. >> another problem with the playground, kids getting their heads and necks trapped. you should check all the openings on your play equipment. be sure spaces are either smaller than 3 1/2 inches wide so children can't put their body through, or larger than 9 inches so they can slide their body and head through. and never let your kids wear a helmet when they're playing on a playground, whether it's in your background or a public playground. it poses a strangulation hazard. >> people probably think they're being safe when you put a helmet on your kid. you heard the experts say you should have padding underneath. what's the best possible padding? >> mulch is cheap and easy. you can get it at any home improvement store. it should be nine inches deep. don't just sprinkle it on the ground. you have to dig up the ground and put in a good layer.

>> my daughter wears shorts to the park. every single time she goes down the slide, she says ouch because it's so hot. short of wearing pants, is there anything you can do? >> placement is key. the recommendation to keep the slide from getting too hot, place the slide to the north so it's not getting too much sun exposure. really look and plan where you're going to place the play set before you put it out there. >> that's a great tip. thank you, susan. she's full of them, great tips, that is. for more on backyard safety, go to our website, earlyshow.cbsnews.com. coming up, we get to hear a song that michael jackson left behind. we'll play it for you next on "the early show." >> announcer: "cbs healthwatch" sponsored by metamucil. beautify your inside. pports you. it helps your natural cleansing process. helps lower cholesterol. promotes overall well-being. and provides a good source of natural fiber. try metamucil today, in capsules and powders.

country, you want something with anti-mike robial properties. honey has been shown to beat every type of wound infection. pooh bear had it right when he was digging for that stuff. put a little dab underneath the band-aid, and it's going to have a similar effect as neosporin, and it's honey. >> does it help stop the bleeding, or is that something else? >> we're moving on to that next. >> instead of an antibiotic -- >> a little dab of honey will do you. >> that's good to know. >> sweet tip. >> it's the pepper that does it. >> another thing you can do right after you rinse out the wound. >> i've been juggling by ginsu knives, and all of a sudden, i'm covered with cuts. >> pull the knife out of the middle of your hand, say something like i ain't got time to bleed. >> put your hand down and immediately do this. >> sprinkle a little pepper. you think pepper might sting because pepper is hot. it's spicy. it doesn't. it actually has analgesics.

pepper will actually help stop the pain in the wound. >> it stops the pain. does it stop the pain and staunch the bleeding? >> it does kind of. you want to apply pressure. that's what's going to stop the bleeding. pepper and honey. >> we've had the toilet paper. we've had the honey. we've had the pepper. now it's time for little green apples. >> we're getting all julia child up in this. if you've ever felt claustrophobic in a cramped space in a plane, green apples have been shown strangely enough to reduce the feeling of claustrophobia. >> if i'm in one of the commuter jets. >> bring some green apples. >> you'll cut them open and feel better immediately. >> these things are delicious. >> what are these guys for? >> if you're selling your home and you want to make your living room look bigger, put a basket of green apples out. it might just help. last but not least -- i'm still eating my green apples here. if you've got a fever, anything up to 102 degrees, drink a lot

a great summer picture. growing numbers of divorced parents are sharing joint custody of their kids, and there seems to be an unexpected benefit to splitting up. the fathers may actually be getting better at parenting as a result. >> so let's start getting some of these flowers in.

>> guess what helped this dad cultivate a better relationship with his children? his divorce. with scheduled visits, peter giles spends more quality time with his kids now than during his marriage. >> before the divorce, i was a financial provider. after the divorce, i was a nurturer. >> with the rise in joint custody, many men are finding that without the stress of a failed marriage, they can become more fully involved with their children. in fact, a noted researcher finds more than 20% improved as parents. >> the divorce has given me an opportunity to define parenting on my own terms. i may be a different type of parent than my ex-wife, but i do feel that we're both exceptional parents, even after the divorce. >> while peter's ex-wife is supporti supportive, some parents find it hard to believe their ex-husband could still be a good dad even though he wasn't a good husband. >> when there's a divorce, don't throw dad away. dad is an important parent.

they learn, gee, i can do this. this works. >> according to one study, 77% of divorced men experience interference with their scheduled visitations, but technology is helping. >> how's your project coming together? >> it's not just talking on the phone. dads and their kids can become facebook friends. >> hello. >> and there's even video conferencing. michael gough won that right in court when his ex-wife moved away. >> you can help with projects, homework, read stories, play games. >> what kind of eggs can i make for you? >> before, peter was the guy who brought home the bacon. now he's cooking it too. that's the most satisfying outcome of all. >> ultimately, the kids are the ones that benefit from all of this. they get 100% of my attention, 100% of their stepmom's attention, and 100% of their mother's. it's a win, win, win. >> sure sounds like it. joining us is jill brooke. what do you think contributes to

dads becoming better parents after they split up? >> we're in a culture where divorce is more the norm, and we've learned important lessons. it means more fathers got involved and they had early bonding. when the divorce happened, they said, i'm really attached to this child, and i want more time with them than, let's say, a generation ago. as a result, you see the rise of joint custody, which by the way now is the majority in all divorce cases. >> i can see resentful ex-wives for a number of reasons. number one, a woman might say, why didn't he cook and clean and do chores when he was with me? and the other thing is why isn't he following my rules when i send the kid over to his house? >> the hardest thing for many mothers to understand and let go of is it's not only their child. it's also the father's child. and you just have to trust that the way you parent will teach your children lessons, and the way a man may parent may be different, but they'll learn lessons from that also. in the same way that necessity is the mother of invention,

maybe it should be the father's invention because before they didn't have to. now that they have the single minded focus, i'm with this child. i have to feed them. i have to take them to dentist appointments. and i also have to spend time with them. as a result, guess what? the results are they often become so much closer. you know what, maggie. love is a habit. the more you're with somebody, the more attached you usually are. >> and they often have little time with their children. so they make it quality time when they're together. >> all the mothers that i counsel all the time admit later on, they say, initially they were resistant because, you know what, it's coming from a loving place. they just want to protect their children. i send my backpack off with new clothes, toothbrush, and many instructions, and they come back and they've eaten ice cream all the time or nothing has been washed. you have to just let go of that and realize they're doing different things. the child is still a part of both of you. >> and it's not going to mess up

the child because he or she is being parented in two different ways? >> so often we don't realize we're living in the middle of the play and can't reflect until the end of it. children make their own evaluations. each parent teaches different things, and you just have to trust that the way you're doing it is the way that you feel is the best. unfortunately, in divorce you don't have control. so many of these men say that they have been really liberated because they're no longer being critiqued. >> they can do it their way. >> they can do it their way, and it's not necessarily that one is better. it's just different. >> all right. jill brooke, thank you. appreciate it. let's go over to the guys. >> all right. we've got really neat stuff to show you right now. if you're a space buff, a science buff, a history buff. >> an american. >> an american. neil armstrong became the first man to walk on the moon 40 years ago this week. come on, mags. you want to watch this. today we are seeing that historic mission like never before, thanks to the help of a film restoration company. they restored "casablanca" as

well. you may not be able to see it here, but you can see things now like the reflection on neil armstrong's visor, just a crispness. they spent a fortune to do this. >> you know what happened. nasa actually erased some of the tapes. >> there was a tape shortage in the '70s and '80s. >> so they had to come to cbs news and say, you got those pictures? >> it was july. >> what's that guy's name? walter cronkite. >> something kind of significant happened. do you happen to have that tape? >> by the way, this is one of the seminal moments of walter cronkite's career. the storied broadcast career was saying that man had landed on the moon. and we have video of that. because the video was so limited, one of the things we rely on was the astronauts' memories. in some cases, there aren't. alan bean, who was on apollo 12, the second manned mission, has created some fascinating

we're going to find out how to fix up a couple of things around the house for nothing or next to nothing. >> and -- because you love this stuff. this is your favorite favorite? >> love ceviche. it is anything with fresh fish. this is going to be good. >> cooks in citrus. >> time for a cool plate of fish. this is what renowned chef shaun hergatt is going to prepare for us this morning. >> can we come here and look? can we take an early sample? >> nothing like a little lox for breakfast. that's what i say. they started setting up this morning at 6:00 in the morning. what's the problem? >> i can feed myself. >> i made cookies for you last night, and now i'm trying to feed you. i like to take care of you. >> this is what's great, by the way. when maggie starts to do something to harry, and harry's like don't do this. maggie is thinking to herself, this is cute. we're on tv. harry is like, no, don't do this. this is not cute. >> the cartoon bubble. >> exactly. not going to happen.

let's take a check of the weather and see what's happening all across the country. harry's going to go feed himself. maggie is going to try to feed him. and we'll update you on what's happening in just a little bit. hey, that's my camera shot you walked through. we're going to talk about this after the show. let's take a check of the weather and see what's happening all across the country. it looks like we're in for stormy weather across the east coast. strong cold front is going to move through and winds out of the southeast is going to create high winds, ha, and rain tonight into tomorrow morning. we have high heat in the southern plains. some rain is going to bring the temperatures down. southwest, west coast really hot, everyone. clear from the rockies all the way to the western shores. as far as the weekend goes, you want hot? you want hot? yeah, how about 115 degrees plus in areas like phoenix, arizona, scorching weather as you head to the pacific northwest. seattle and portland and points in between. cool days and chilly nights, really chilly in portions of wisconsin and the upper peninsula of michigan. and then wet early as you head

into tomorrow in the northeast. then kind of nice and pleasant as we clear out in the mid-atlantic states down to the southeast. where are you from? >> syracuse. >> and where are you from? >> syracuse. >> this little girl is from belfast. >> and you're from belfast, northern ireland. nice to see you. >> and that's a look at your weather all acrossmcá" country, and in syracuse, new york, as

well. here's an "early" look at what's going on across the usa. over to you, harry. that was a save. >> indeed it was. an amazing adventure has ended with a california teenager sailing into history. 17-year-old zac sunderland is now the jungest person ever to circle the globe alone in a sailboat. for 13 months at sea, he encountered fierce storms, several times lost communication, and had a near run-in with pirates. his route took zac past hawaii to the south pacific, south africa, through the panama canal and up the pacific coast. he endured long stretches of loneliness. but lonely was hardly the word to describe his homecoming. zac received a hero's welcome. zac joins us now with his parents laurence and marianne sunderland from marina del rey, california. good morning to you all. >> good morning. >> zac, congratulations.

so much time alone on that boat. all kinds of trials and tribulatio tribulations. what was the hardest part of this journey for you? >> the hardest part, i'd have to say, like as far as consistently, was probably the sleep deprivation. just constant sleep deprivation out there when you're single handing. you're out there by yourself on the boat. there's no one to help you out when stuff goes wrong or watches close to shore. a lot of times i was up for 48 hours and stuff. it's going to be nice not to do that anymore. >> was there ever a moment when you thought i'm just going to give up. maybe i should try this another time because this is -- the idea of this is asking more than i can give. >> not really. i mean, once you're in the ocean, you're miles and days away from everywhere. if you think like that, it doesn't do yourself any good and wears you out more if you think

negatively. so i try and focus on the positive and make everything work out the best that i can. >> were you ever afraid? >> yeah. the things that scare me out in the ocean is stuff i can't control. like when the thing that holds the mast broke on the boat and falling backwards, it was crazy. four days with very little sleep and hoping the mast wasn't going to fall over backwards. pretty crazy dimes. and piracy off of indonesia. >> those are some serious reality checks if you're sailing solo around the world. laurence, let me ask you. this is boat -- this is a boat -- you're a boat builder. this is a boat that basically was kind of retrofitted for this mission. this is not a sailboat that was designed to go around the world per se. what level of confidence did you have as your son was embarking on this journey? >> i had 100% confidence in what zac was doing. yes, i am a boat builder, surveyor, and we've actually

owned two of these vessels prior to zac purchasing his own with his own money. and i knew the weaknesses of the vessels, the vessel, and we strengthened cabin walls. we strengthened the hull in strategic places. we made sure that that boat was bulletproof before he went out on the ocean. >> marianne, what was the most difficult part for you? >> i think i'd have to say the same as zac, the things that you had no control over. if there was a breakage on the boat, we could trouble shoot it. if there was a bad weather, we could route him around it or heed with know ahead of time it was forecasting that it was coming. but things like ships on a collision course that didn't listen or didn't hear him on the radio, or the forestay. the kind of things you can't do anything about are the worst for sure. >> zac, most important thing you learned out there? >> i don't know. i kind of learned so much about the world out there, seeing all the different cultures and

stuff. it's just amazing how different the world is and how happy these people are in other countries that comparatively have nothing to americans and how beautiful that all is. it's been an amazing year, life experience and stuff. >> lots of video available. lots of things to check out online. and i understand there's a book to come as well. we'll look forward to reading that. thank you so much. congratulations. what a journey. what an amazing accomplishment. >> thanks for having me. >> thank you very much. >> be well. all right. for more on zac's amazing journey, go to our website, earlyshow.cbsnews.com. now here's maggie. >> announcer: this portion of "the early show" sponsored by the home depot and behr. good, better, behr. >> are you putting off home repairs this summer because they just cost too much? home improvement expert jake tyson of the diy network. that's you. >> here i am. >> he's got small projects that can make a big difference in your home.

these all cost less than? >> $30. it's too easy. let's start off here, right? >> what are we making? a wine rack. >> we're making a wine rack, or you can call it a plumber's rack, whatever you like. it's made out of pvc. >> it's more attractive than the plumber's crack. >> it's a couple of pieces of shelving that i prebought. i went and cut this with a simple handsaw and your plumber's pvc. it's four-inch piping, and you cut it with a hand saw. you stick it in here. don't forget to use your brackets here to stabilize your box. it's very important. you stick it into the box and silicone all the way along. all the way along your pvc. >> before you put them in. >> absolutely. line the liner at the front here, and what you've got is your wine rack. >> perfect. >> it sticks out too. what is that? >> very creative. after you finish drinking your wine, you can make a lamp out of it. >> i love this. this is my favorite project.

you've got to start this on a friday because you've got to empty it and finish it on sunday depending on how you feel. what i've done here. get a vino bottle with a bit of character. you drill a hole. get a glass drill. costs about $3. i bought a lamp here, hanging ceiling lamp, so it sits on top of the wine bottle. >> this thing is heavier than this. >> very good. what you've got to do is get some sand here, fill up the wine bottle, and it counterbalances and gets hit. >> so that sand will stay in therefor ever. >> exactly. fix that to the wine bottle. >> look how cool that is. >> voila. >> i like that. >> easy. you did it yourself. something different. $22. >> that's what you spent? very nice. so we're making shelves. >> we're making shelves here. now, it's really easy. a couple of bits of timber.

shelves that look like your college dorm, you don't want that. what we've done here is a little bit creative. put some stuff together. this will cost you $16 at the hardware. >> you don't chop the timber yourself. >> you can chop it yourself. it's simple. they'll cut it up for you. a little stain, couple of brackets on the wall. make sure you screw into the side. >> this is the easiest one yet. >> that is easy, right? and the brackets you'll never see. so whatever else you put in there, it's not unsightly. how much does it cost? >> it costs about $16. >> and lastly, this is a project that i know can get expensive when you have water damage. how do you do it on the cheap? >> what you've got to do is try to fix it. i don't want to spend $400 on water damage. not with this. this is real simple. chip away here your old water damaged wood. get rid of that. and you come across -- this is preprepared.

this is step two. >> what is on there now? >> nothing. it's bare timber. you'll drill holes and make air gaps in here. what this is here is wood hardener. >> wood hardener. >> you just simply spray your wood hardener on here. give it about 24 hours to dry. and this here ends up rock solid. so you fixed your wood rot like that. that easy. >> and you cover it up? >> then you get your spackle. come on, maggie. you can have a go at this. >> i can get my hands dirty. >> there we go. simple as that. spackle straight over the top. let it dry. sand it down. dry to go. a lick of paint. it's done. >> jake tyson saving me money. we like that. >> thank you very much. >> thank you so much. we're going to put all of this online. go to our website at earlyshow.cbsnews.com. and get tips from jake the handyman. over to you, harry. >> thanks, maggie.
