hardest hit, oklahoma. one person was killed and more than 20 others hurt. dozens of homes damaged or destroyed this morning. anna werner is outside shawnee, oklahoma. anna, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, norah and charlie. local news reports there are nearly 85 homes here outside of shawnee. as it gets light, we're getting a sense of the damage. many homes are destroyed, trees that are snapped in half and one person was killed. >> breck, it's back here. we've got to go soon. >> reporter: as the tornado tore through shawnee, oklahoma, sunday, you could literally hear it building. it tore through this trailer park leaving most as rubble. amid the destruction, authorities discovered the body of a 79-year-old man.

several other people were also injured. the tornado was just one of several reported in central, oklahoma, that knocked out power to thousands. >> just caught that. it just hits us. it hit that brand-new hospital. >> the powerful system spawned baseball-sized hail and winds strong enough to flip over tractor-trailers, littering them across the interstate. after the tornadoes carved a path of destruction, residents surveyed the damage. >> my pick upwas sitting out there, my daughter's car. everything, gone. >> reporter: emergency officials raced from home to home looking for trap and wounded. >> there's several areas. >> forecasters had been warning about an outbreak for days. in some cases residents had more than 30 minutes' notice. but nothing could prepare them for what the violent system

would leave behind. >> just another really bad day here for the people of oklahoma. >> reporter: well, oklahoma's governor has declared a state of emergency in 16 counties here, but it may not be over for residents here. they're expecting more severe weather today. charlie, norah, back to you. >> anna werner, thank you. in kansas a tornado touched down yesterday afternoon south of wichi wichita. thousands lost power but the storms stayed away from the most populated areas and another twister hit northern iowa. meteorologist jeff berardelli of wfor is tracking the severe weather. jeff, what can we expect in the next few days? >> we're going to see more severe weather. that's another saying much because it's been a very inactive southbound so far, but that's changing big time, especially this past weekend. on sunday alone we had over 400 reports of severe weather. in fact, nooerm 500 reports of

severe weather. 28 reports of tornadoes. 200 reports of wind damage and 191 reports of large hail. looking at the radar, explosive development yesterday evening. however, later today, more showers and thunderstorms likely and unfortunately the greatest risk is in some of the same hard hit areas of eastern oklahoma and western parts of missouri as we head through the day today and that severe weather threat will probably last as it heads toward the east over the next couple of days. >> thanks, jeff. the white house is pushing back against republicans but congress isn't letting up. two more hearings are. going up this week. nancy cordes is on capitol hill. nancy, good morning. >> good morning, charlie. there's a big debate over who knew what when. over the weekend they deployed a senior adviser's handling of this matter and to accuse republicans of a partisan fi

phishing expedition. >> they first found out several weeks ago that the treasury department's inspector general was inspecting the irs. the white house says they didn't receive the results of the internal investigation until last wednesday. >> they have met with the treasury department, spoken, he had resigned and they took steps to make sure it never happens again. >> he called it inexcusable. republican senator john cornyn sought to tie the irs scandal to the white house on sunday. >> it seems to be the answer whenever they're caught is i didn't know about it. >> reporter: they put them under extra scrutiny what when they

started in 2010. republicans said sunday they're not so sure. >> who knew, when did they know, why did they do this, how high up in the government did it go. >> he told congress on friday that his agency's mistakes were the result of mismanagement, not partisanship. >> i think what happened here is foolish mistakes were made in that they were foolish in their workload selection. >> reporter: we now know that some were informed that this investigation was under way nearly a year ago and that weakens the argument, charlie and norah, that there was some kind of coverup here. >> thank you. c bbs news jo b s nu bs news jo. good morning. >> good morning. >> what's going on? >> the key question is what started all this? how did these managers get

inspired to do this? was it really just the case lode? there wasn't a huge ballooning of it. there's an investigation about how this start and then as nancy mentioned, who knew what when and that's the question that might get over to the white house. so far we've seen no evidence of that. that's the question that has to be answered. it's become the big political scandal for the white house. >> what about the point that nancy just made that it weakens the argument of a coverup if they knew this was being investigated last year. >> right. there's no evidence of a coverup. to the extent that they should have known, that's kind of a p.r. issue. that is to say you should have seen it coming so be better prepared for it than you were, but there's no evidence that they knew about it for a long time. >> what happened with the white house and the president. we heard over the weekend that the white house chief of staff has said to those in the white house, don't spend more than 10%

of your time. is that plausible? is that realistic? >> why not 9%. it's smart, right, because white houses have to -- the main job of a chief of staff is to narrow down the options to the important things. on the other hand -- there are other important things we have to pay attention to but you obviously want to spend enough time that all of this crisis management doesn't get in the way of the other 90%. >> secondly, how did the white house get past it so it doesn't connell assume their time. >> there's a political and policy way of getting past it. the policy way is to check on everything else. get him on the road. talk about sort of a town hall style event where you see the president talking about it. the jobs, the economy. that's what people care about. that puts pressure on the republicans because they don't want to be talking about it. there's a political spin here, too, which is we saw dan

pfeiffer doing this, putting pressure on the republicans saying this is a witch hunt. that's fine but they're trying to work with the republicans. it's a careful balance. point at them and try to keep the relationship open to work with them. >> thanks. >> it is a long slow trip to work this morning for tens of thousands of rail commuters. two commuter trains collide and derailed friday night. a scene of smoke and chaos. it shut down one of the nation's most important commuter lines. don dahler is live. >> reporter: they shut down one of the busiest rail corridors in the whole country, leave commuters with a complicated trip into new york city as crews work to repair the tracks. highways in southwest connecticut are jammed as friday's train derailment has forced 30,000 commuters to find an alternate way to new york

city? anyone who's going to use the highway system in this area, please, if at all mob, car pool. >> reporter: a fleet of 120 shuttle buses and express trains in the city have helped 'leave yat the road conjection. but the damage caused by friday's derailment is so severe they don't expect service to return to normal any time soon. >> we have about 2,000 feet of track that was in some cases completely destroyed. it's going to be a lengthy job. we're essentially building a railroad from scratch. >> are we talking days? >> we. >> friday's crash occurred when the northeast bound train left grand central terminal around 4:40 with 300 people on board. a southwest train left at around 5:30 with about 400 people on board. shortly after 6:00 p.m. the first train deraining and swung

to the left. over the weekend they worked around the clochlkt ntsb are focusing their attention on a section of broken rail as a possible culprit in the accident but they don't yet know if the crash broke the rail or the rail caused the crash. i'm sitting noegt i-95 in fairfield, connecticut. this is a busy highway in the best of times. the governor of connecticut is saying he expecting many of the 30,000 people who would ordinarily take those trains be in a personal car and make this a parking lot this week. so far going well. many people probably taking his advice to stake stay home or find another way into the city. >> thank you. steph stephenie mey stephenie meyer of yahoo! is making the announcement that they may buy tumblr.

mellody hobson joins us. good morning. >> a bold move by yahoo! and myer. why tumblr? >> very popular, 11th most popular site. she wept out and bought herself some cool. that's basically what she did. the key issue here is the demographic. very, very young. most of the users under 35. that is the demographic that advertisers covet because they spend a lot of monday. she also bought mobile access. >> so is she betting the farm on cool? >> i don't think she's betting by any stretch of the imagination but she's saying she wants to make it part of everyday life. >> what's the risk for yahoo!? >> first of all, acquisitions are inherently risky, and this

is her tenth acquisition since july. 25% above its private price that we saw for tumblr. they only made $13 million last year. its users don't like ads. if she tries to put ads on, what happens? last thing, this is like the wild wild west, uncensored and any attempts to advertise, users will go away. >> let me ask you about melissa meyer. how is she doing? >> so far it's doing great. by all accounts, you know, she's hitting on all cylinders. she'd made it very clear she's here to win. it's amazing to see how far it's come. >> all right. mellody hobson, thank you. good to see you. and someone in florida is almost $600 million richer this morning. only one winning power ball

ticket was sold this weekend. it is the biggest single winning lottery ticket ever. mark strassmann is in zephyrhills, tampa. that's where the winning ticket was sold. mark, do we have any idea who won? >> not so far, norah. good morning. there's rumors about who that person is. probably the single best $2 ever spent inside this publix supermarket. inside this city, all kinds of rumors about who the winner is, man, woman, young, old, even a rumor it's one of the co-workers inside this supermarket. but they won't know and don't know until the winner steps forward. we could find out as soon as today who that winner is. i think about some of the numbers involved in this. you often hear about a million chance in life. this is a $1 175 million chance.

he or she used the pick six, so the computer picked the winning combination of winners. if tho the winner decides to wa away after taxes with $370 million. it's time to show you this morning's headlines from around the globe. it was caught stealing data from american companies and the united states government. but american officials say they're back in action using different techniques. britain's guardian looks at a defeat for the syrian opposition. they attacked troops near the lebanese border. they say this morn 30g people including 16 rebels were killed. the government claims its forces now surround the town. >> "the wall street journal" says they're considering bare

and security believed to be headed home. fogle has been at the center of a russian media frenzy since his arrest last tuesday. that's when they claim that they caught him trying to recruit a spy who was a specialist in the caucasus caucas caucasus. authorities released this reporting as ef. you can earn up to $1 million a year and i'll give 100,000 up front, he said, but only if we meet right now. his spy kit included an ill-fitting wig, sun glass, and euros. they think this case is out of the ordinary. >> what is apparent is that the russians have wanted to make this incredibly public. this kinds of spy cases are usually handled in the shadows. >> reporter: in this

interrogation video russian agents can be heard talking about the recent boston bombings. they expressed shock that an american dared to spy on them when they're helping the u.s. with an investigation. >> to not only demonstrate that they did, in fact, help and give leads but also that the u.s. should be very careful about pursuing these matter on their own. >> reporter: no u.s. official has acknowledged whether he worked for the cia, only that the 29-year-old was an embassy staffer. a legal former spy may be coming to a store near you. not long ago facial recognition technology existed only in a fantasy world, envisioned in the movies but last night on "60 minutes" lesley stahl showed us it's closer to reality. >> reporter: in minority report tom cruise is bombarded by ads recognizing him and telling him

surveillance footage. >> big brother is big business. >> and big business is free to do this kind of surveillance while government has all kinds of restrictions. so there are rules for law enforcement, government, military, but no rules for commer commerce? >> no rules for commercial companies. >> there are in europe where laws require companies to get your cob sent before they collect your face print. but not in the u.s. where regulation is lagging far behind the technology. meanwhile some of the biggest companies online are building faceprints. chances are they i have your faceprint on file. google and apple also make face prints. >> my identity, my face print should be i'ddentified as my property. it's very frievt me. >> what do you mean our faces are private? we're out in the street.

>> absolutely. >> we're walking around. cameras all over the place. are they really private? >> our faces are private in the sense that my face does not walk around with a tag saying i'm joseph in the street. >> lesley stahl joins us. good morning. >> good morning. >> where is this facial technology heading? >> right now it's kind of in its infancy. it's beginning in the commercial part of our lives, the idea being that companies will recognize you in stores and send you an ad. so they're not even there yet. so we're heading there first. the fear of people who worry about privacy is, of course, that the government will get into this and develop a data bank of all of this based on our faces. but you know? one of the things about businesses is that they don't really have rules and regulations. the government does.

we erie behind europe -- europe has begun to regulation this kind of thing. what we're talking about is where we just walk around the streets and there are cameras everywhere and so we lose our anonymity. it's a big kind of challenge. >> it is a big change. >> our fingerprints are already all over the internet. so they know where we surf. now they're going to know where we appear. >> as we walk down the street. you know, i don't know. tlink's a generational split here as it was with the internet in terms of privacy. younger people think it's so cool but older people think it's so creepy. >> was this part of the boston marathon investigation at all? >> it's so curious you ask because it's been so difficult to find out exactly what the government did. we know that they tried facial recognition. they're not that advanced with it in the government.

it didn't work. they may have come up with the wrong person through this technology which isn't developed and their data bank isn't full. they're trying to improve their data bank, but because they have rules, they can only put mug shots in these. >> leslie, what else can they tell other than saying, okay, lesley stahl was at this store. can they tell anything else about you? >> yes, of course. computers can see your face and then hook up to your facebook page. they might hook up to your financial records. all kinds of personal details as you walk down the street. >> as you know, congress is interested. >> imagine if you could do that. you're walking down the street or you walk into the bar and see a pretty girl or a cool guy. you want to know who he is. you just go like that because they're not putting that in their glasses at this stage. but you say where could it go. this is where it could go.

what if your next flight had only one pilot on the plane. on friday an aviation blog called operationally speaking says research is under way. boeing and a number of big manufacturers are reportedly interested. >> it would be like this. a co-pilot would be stationed on the ground. he would act like the pilot of an unmanned drone. they would be able to take remote control of the flight if needed. with us now captain sully sullenberger. good morning. >> good morning, norah. hi, charlie. >> hey. >> do you think it's a good idea? >> it's ludicrous. it's hard to -- it's hard to believe that people can keep a straight face and propose this at this time. there's no substitute for having

a well trained crew of at least two pilots and anyone who has flown for a living like that is knows there's sometimes a sense of overload. they can handle the unexpected. that just can't be done remotely. that has to be done in the cockpit with both people experiencing the same situation, feeling the same vie brarks smelling the sake electrical odors, sometimes wordlessly. sometimes you can't have conversation on the ground. >> you're a living testament of having a wise co-pilot in the cockpit. >> if jeff skiles was on the ground, there was no way. there could not have been. >> why do you think the airline may be pushing this?

>> you know, that's really a surprise to me. i don't see a clear upside. i don't know if it's about the money, which it often is. i don't know if it's some other, you know, idea that they from time to time try out about a potential pilot shortage or something else, but there isn't -- there is not a pilot shortage in this country right now and there won't be if the airlines can have entry-level jobs that pay more than starvation wages. >> go ahead. you have questions? >> the other question, captain, i was going to ask you, you talked about this a lot of the importance of human -- in terms of knowledge, landing a plane. all of the times it's exclusively been because of an error by the pilot, right? they can say something, and you're a perfect example of that. >> well, you know, technology has wonderful applications. i'm not at all against technology when used appropriately but we have to realize technology can only do

what has been fore seen and what has been programmed and it's the human element working in the technology system that can innova innovate, take it and apply it, in our case, a problem we have never seen before. >> thank you. >> always good to see you. thank you. >> and tomorrow delta air lines ceo anderson will join us. we'll ask him what's going on with all the new airlines fees.
