a better man than i am. >> sometimes the pavement pops up. >> got the scruffy puppy. >> the dog got loose on an expressway. after a few narrow escapes. >> the dog has been taken into custody. >> a long way to go. >> and that. >> so you don't say before the game with the dallas cowboy, god let me win by at least ten points here to cover the spread? >> if you had one wish, what would it be? >> that you would vacate. >> and all that matters. >> any chance for the nation's hot dog eating contest took to the scales. >> how many does he have? >> like a sword swallower. >> on "cbs this morning." >> cut the mustard and be pronounced wiener. >> cut the mustard and be pronounced wiener. who wrote this? captioning funded by cbs

welcome to "cbs this morning." as americans celebrate their great summer holiday, many will be sweating under high temperatures. that brutal heat wave that just won't quit is here today as well. warnings and advisories are up from the east coast all the way through the midwest. st. louis is predicting highs of 05 today. >> it will not be quite that hot in the east. but it will be another hard day for about a million utility crust mers who lost power last friday. whit johnson is in washington where the cleanup continues. whit, good morning. >> jeff, good morning to you. the power is slowly coming back on. take a look around. you see all of the work left to be done. debris still everywhere. it's a visible reminder of the roadblocks ahead. but perhaps some lessons learned for the next disaster. five days since the violent storm. efforts to clean up and restore power growing more desperate. >> it is a huge mess. >> virginia resident terry savela, one of more than a million people across the storm zone without power tuesday,

tries to focus on the positive. >> we've been sweating it out in the basement. but no damage to our house. so i feel for the people around here who have houses, trees fall on their houses. >> people, like suzette and michael mcgrann. a tree crashed through their bedroom as they were watching a movie friday night. >> it was like a train. >> thought tornado. >> luckily, no one in the mcgrann household was hurt. powerless residents continued looking for ways to cool off and charge up. this library in the maryland suburbs packed since the lights went out. the state's governor calling on residents to alert power companies to help pinpoint where resources need to go. >> we now need for citizens to call the utility companies and let them know that your house is still out. >> homeland security experts are looking at last week's surprise storm as a test run for what could happen in the event of a terrorist attack. a test run that has failed so far.

>> it's completely unaccept toobl not have these basic needs met. >> dan kaniewski was a disaster response adviser to president george w. bush. he handled the recovery after hurricane katrina and says events like this week's storm exposed weaknesses in infrastructure as several power companies are still struggling to bring residents back online. >> sustained power outages are among the top concerns of homeland security officials. i know for a fact this type of scenario keeps them awake at night. >> now, with all these outages, many people are asking the question, why are these power lines aboveground vulnerable to trees? why not put them belowground? >> the simple answer is cost. up to $15 million per mile to make that change totaling billions of dollars in this area alone, a cost passed along to the people who live here. jeff, erica, back to you. >> whit, thanks. there is new fire daenger in the west this morning. a brushfire in palmdale,

california north of los angeles erupted overnight and is spreading across a rural area. at this point the fire is moving away from homes. meanwhile in colorado, fires continue to burn throughout that state but there is good news. c-130 tanker planes returned to the sky after being grounded because of a fatal crash. the deadly waldo canyon fire is mostly cntained this morning as rick sallinger of our denver station, cbs 4 reports. >> you can see the sparks flying all over the place. it was raining fire on us. >> three people that died and more than 600 homes destroyed in colorado since the first fire started on june 9th. this morning, we're taking you inside the fight to save homes and lives in colorado springs. >> had they not made a stop on that fire right there, they would have lost 195 homes. >> this video was shot by the colorado springs fire department. this is being called the most

destructive fire in colorado's history. >> firefighters on the ground use shovels, chainsaws and even a garden hose to fight the blaze. >> found a hose, garden hose, we're trying to put this roof fire out. he did it. this is the first fire he's ever put out. >> at ground level, the fight to save homes went on block oi block. >> i felt helpless. a force of nature and almost an act of god coming down this hill and seeing all this fire, seeing it jump, rounding the corner and see 15 houses all on fire and then it's jumping and leapfrogging from house to house to house. >> the national inner agency fire center which coordinates wildfire fighting efforts around the country says that 45 large fires are still burning across the nation. for "cbs this morning," i'm rick sallinger, in colorado springs. a tense dispute ended on

tuesday as secretary of state hillary clinton offered regret for the killing of pakistani troops by the u.s. >> that dispute carried significant political and financial costs as bill plante reports from the white house. good morning. >> good morning, jeff. it's been an angry seven-month standoff. pakistani closed the road into afghanistan used to supply u.s. and allied troops. it's been demanding an apology from president obama for a helicopter gunship strike which killed 24 pakistani soldiers. on tuesday, the apology came. but in a very limited way. secretary of state clinton said in a statement that she told pakistan's foreign minister, we are sorry for the losses suffered by the pakistani military. she did not, though, apologize for the incident itself and her spokesperson made it clear that was intentional. >> there were mistakes made on both sides that led to the tragic loss of life. >> since november, 7,000 truck loads of supplies bound for the

nearly 90,000 soldiers in afghanistan have been backed up hundreds of miles. it cost the u.s. government $2.1 billion extra to ship supplies in over a northern route, but in the end, it was pakistan that suffered the biggest loss. the u.s. withheld several hundred million dollars in aid. pakistan lost the $250 per truck border fee and most significantly, could no longer sell fuel to the u.s. military. relations between the two countries have gotten much worse since osama bin laden was killed on pakistani soil and the u.s. began drone strikes. the u.s. has repeated accused pakistan of being a safe-haven for terrorists. including long time al qaeda number two, a man al zawahiri. when president zardari came in may, he saw secretary of state clinton but not granted a meeting with the president. aid that was withheld during the

border closing. welcomed the deal with a hoping it moves ties can move to a better place from here. >> washington would like better ties too. particularly better cooperation to go after the terrorist network inside pakistan. but the opened resupply route, well, the pentagon says hey, it's been able to bring in so much to afghanistan, it probably won't even need that road that passes through pakistan until it begins withdrawing troops and equipment in 2014. erica? >> bill plante, thank you. also in washington, cbs news national security analyst juan. >> good morning, erica. >> it's been seven months. two-parter for you. why now and how effective will this be for the relations? >> this will certainly help the relationship but not healing the distrust that exists between the u.s. and pakistan. the distrust goes back to the bin laden raid that there were

assaults on their sovereignty and distrust on the u.s. side that they're not doing everything o possible to stop the terror networks. this is helpful, it will reopen supply lines. it's something to build on. but there's a deep chasm of distrust on both sides. >> juan, in your estimation, how badly did this damage, the u.s. withdrawal from afghanistan? >> well, it certainly made it more costly, jeff. the northern distribution network which goes through russia and central asia is a more expensive route. we've been developing the last few years. it hasn't hampered our efforts but made it more costly. the reason this supply route is important, though, as we look to 2014, as bill mentioned in his report, the withdrawal of supplies and troops will be important. it will be a massive effort and we'll need as many supply routes as possible. >> moving quickly to iran now. iran said it successfully tested missiles that could reach israel. as you know, the u.s. increased

military enforcements now in the gulf. this is three days of war games have gone on here. is there more to come? >> i think we're seeing increasing bluster intention, jeff, because iran is under a great deal of pressure. you have the european oil embargo that just went into place, continued u.s. pressure on iranian financial and commercial endeavors and the iranian economy really under assault by the international community. so the iranians have to demonstrate they're able to defend themselves, that they can cause trouble if possible. that explains the missile test and they closed the straight of who moou who moout. >> they've talked about this a lot. this is a huge point of leverage for them. every time there's a point of crisis or point of escalation, they'll talk about it. they could do it potentially. it would be a major mistake on their part because i think the u.s. navy would be prepared to reopen the straits.

so at this point it's more bluster than anything. the u.s. has to take it seriously and why they're positioning naval forces there alabi certificating its influencing in the arabian gulf. >> you mentioned the pressure -- is there any indication the sanctions have been working? >> well, erica great question. depends what you mean by working. certainly it squeezed the iranian economy. it has brought them to the negotiating table. it has slowed and impeded the nuclear program itself. the big question, though, is will it change the regime's calculus about weapons capability. that question is still out there. it's not clear that financial measures or pressure will be able to do it. >> thanks. thanks, erica. the jetblue pilot whose bizarre behavior forced an emergency landing in march has been cleared of criminal charges. >> terrell brown has the tore story behind clayton osbon's outburst in midnight.

terrell, good morning. >> jeff, good morning. passengers say that pilot was erratic, at one point running through the plane's cabin yelling about jesus and al qaeda. he was indicted on federal charges for that meltdown. yesterday the judge handed down a ruling. >> jetblue airlines pilot clayton osbon has been found not guilty of interfering with the flight crew by reason of insanity. the flight was en route to las vegas from new york. mid flight osbon was locked out of cockpit after saying things just don't matter and declaring to his co-pilot, we need to take a leap of faith. as seen on cell phone video recorded by passengers, osbon shouted a war cry and at one point charged towards the cockpit door trying to get back inside. >> inside the cockpit, the co-pilot gave an order to restrain osbon. passengers, flight crew tackled him and pinned him to the

ground. >> we have to go into amarillo. dee layer an emergency at this time. we need a few minutes to get everything straightened out. >> the co-pilot landed the plane safely and osbon was restrained and carried off. on tuesday, the judge ruled that osbon suffered a mental disease or defect and would undergo further evaluation at a federal mental health facility. there will be another hearing on or before august 6th. the judge will decide whether osbon can be released or needs to stay in a mental facility. court documents say osbon has to prove that by being released, jeff, erica, he won't be of any danger. in pelham, new hampshire, nine people were hurt in a house fire caused by exploding fireworks. a neighbor says one victim was taken by helicopter. >> many communities have canceled their planned fireworks shows because of budget cuts or fear of fire. this morning, as john blackstone reports, some cities are turning to a new way to light up the

skies. lasers. >> there are no explosions or falling sparks, but the skies still come alive with color and motion. promote ergs of laser shows say they are safer and better for the environment than big firework displays. this company, tlv creative, produces laser shows. >> if you cut back on the fireworks and add other elements, you reduce the risk and increase the opportunity for the crowd to just go crazy for it. >> lasers have that kind of effect, but not -- it's a different, more like an ah. >> the promoter made a laser show part of the celebration in the northern california town much windsor. >> it adds a whole different element. people like that wow factor. >> the cost of both fireworks and laser shows can vary widely. but laser enthusiasts say the technology can save cities 40% or more. here in windsor, california, as in cities across the country, fireworks have become a luxury in a time of shrinking budgets. but canceling a fireworks show

can be like trying to cancel the fourth of july. >> people were outraged. they have to have their fireworks. >> windsor's parks and rec director donna leahy says this year lasers are being added to the fireworks. >> a new element? >> a new element. element of surprise. >> nothing beats a big fireworks show as far as i'm concerned. >> louis has a bias. he stages big shows. he's getting set up for one in burbank tonight. and like all good fourth of july spectaculars, it will explode with sparks and noise and plenty of patriotism. for "cbs this morning," john blackstone, windsor, california. time for a look at some of the headlines from around the globe. "the new york times" says the food and drug administration approved the first at home hiv test. or a quick detects the presence

simple mourn full melody and talk to a bugler who has played it hundreds of times. that's on "cbs this morning." this portion of "cbs this morning" sponsored by jif. jif, the number one choice of choosey moms. liciously creamy. it might just make you feel like a kid again.

to do. >> no longer a tool used strictly by the military to take out terrorists overseas, drones of all shapes and sizes will soon be in our skies here at home. for surveillance missions by local police departments, energy companies looking to build pipelines, farmers looking to feed thirsty crops. >> unmanned systems are a game changing technology. they are a technology that could be a huge new industry. they're also a technology that is raising deep, deep political, legal and ethical questions. >> with so many in the sky and very little regulation, some have encouraged the fa too. come up with safety standards for the 10,000 drones that could populate our airspace by 2017. what i'm hoping that people take it seriously enough, that we could have it all tidied up by the time we open the barn doors and let in the drones. >> humphries does caution it's unlikely military drones like

the predator could be taken overdue to their sophisticated security systems even though last december iran claimed they hacked into the flight controls of this unmanned aircraft and brought it down. in a statement to cbs news, customs and border protection said the unmanned aircraft used for the tests are a different class and type than what cbp operates, adding this test does not have any bearing on our predators' security. >> as a result of that exercise, professor humphries has been invited to testify before a congressional panel later this month. he will recommend how to prevent hacking into unmanned aerial vehicles in the future. there clearly is a difference here between the smaller vehicles and the larger drones. that said, the amount of thought that has gone into figuring out who can use these and where they can use them is not extensive. >> i was going to say or is it the lack of thought? at the end the day. >> they put a lot of thought, it took them four years.

watching the old andy griffith show that they could recite a lot of the lines to you. that may not -- i don't know. that may say something not so nice about us in the country music world but we loved it and i had the opportunity, as you spoke of, to work with him two years back-to-back on matlock. i'll say this. i was talking to someone yesterday and i said, andy was probably the most likeable, easy to like, easy to talk with, be around man i've ever met in my life. he was nice enough to do this on that first matlock i did, he knew i had not acted much or at all at that point. so he came to the bus and we were doing a scene where i had to start at this level and continually get a little more aggressive, angry and mad at the end of the scene and he walked me through that as if i were getting an acting lesson from andy griffith. that was pretty amazing.

i almost laughed a couple of times because it sounded like sheriff andy taylor talking to opie a couple of times. >> you said at one point too, as a couple of north carolina boys, you really clicked from the word hello. that was the connection that you found with him? >> it probably is based on what you just said there, part of it. that we were both from north carolina. so that sense of humor that he had, i understand it very, very well. i grew up around people who were so much alike. andy in that sense. not all the way around, of course. but the carolinas, the music we grew up listening to and then playing and then singing that same music. we had a lot of things in common. so yeah from the word hello, he and i seemed to have that automatic connection. as far as playing music, i remember doing this on the set. couple of different times, i can't remember the director's name but a couple of times he

had to come over to andy and some of the guys on the crew were there listening to us and he was playing and so was i. we were both singing. he'd sing a verse, i might sing a verse, chorus, whatever. sometimes he'd sing harmony. the director would walk over, you know, i'm sorry. but we need to go to work. can we do this a little later? >> so how was his singing, randy? he helped you with acting. you helped him with singing? >> no. no. no, no. i don't profess to help anybody with singing. andy -- no, he was a good singer. everybody who has heard him do vocals on the old andy griffith show, on matlock or on the stage at the grand ole opry. he was a good singer and wonderful musician. a lot of people don't know this, but andy was a music teacher at

one point and played between 20 and 30 instruments, and i got a kick out of this. imagine andy griffith, that accent, in an opera singing anaria like pavarotti kind of singer. when he told me he did that, i said i'm not sure i could hear that. he said, well, it went like this. i finished, i worked with this coach and he tells me his name and then said, i finished that first aria and i said how was i when i came off stage? he said, well, you were brilliant almost unbearably so. >> very nice. randy travis, appreciate you being with us this morning and sharing your memories with us, especially after being up late last night. thanks again. >> thank you. good talking to you. thanks for having
