good morning. it is monday, july 27th 2015. welcome back to "cbs this morning." there's a new study this morning including new medicine for high cholesterol. it could help patients but the price could be a problem. first here's today'sey "e opener" at 8:00. >> his primary target is scott walker. >> creating a culture that's not conducive to politics. >> they're hoping to gain insight on why john houser stood up and opened fire. >> fiat chrysler recalling vehicles due to steering problem. >> bobbi kristina dies. >> the lowell fire threatens hundreds of homes northeast of

sacramento. >> terror groups like al shabaab has to be stopped. >> ethiopia is central to the home of terrorists. it's also home to a longis lt of human rights violations. >> they've been combing the florida coastline for any sign of the missing teenagers. >> right center field. he's going back. grand slammer for mike trout. >> there's a person out there in right center field with a big net. i think it says trout on it and this guy catches the grand slam. the crowd is going crazy in right center field. >> announcer: this morning's "eye opener" at 8:00 is presents by subway. >> i'm norah o'donnell along with vinita nair and anthony mason. charlie rose and gayle king are

off. an nbc poll shows trump leading. and in iowa the caucus state, he's second just behind governor scott walker. >> they're insisting that no classified e-mails were sent or received from her personal server while secretary of state. the inspector general tells congress his office checked 40 of the e-mails she turned over. four of them contained classified information. >> the republican party is shocked, and yet that arises out of a culture where, you know those kinds of outrageous attacks have become far too common place and get circulated nonstop. in 18 months i'm turning over the key. i want to make sure i'm turning over the keys to somebody who is serious about the serious problems that the country faces

and the world faces. >> john heilemann is manager of bloomberg politics. good morning. >> hi. >> you heard president obama and yet donald trump is serious. >> you think he's serious? >> he's serious about attacking his rivals. >> he's having a moment. he's basically blotted out the sun for all other republican candidates. i had someone who was very close the scott walker. he texted me i think he's had a good two weeks. i said who's your guy? scott who? >> the media loves him, can't get enough of him, very good for ratings but maybe not for the republican party. >> trump is the best known and also the least liked. at what point does that catch up with him? >> there are some who say we've already passed peak trump. i don't think that's true. i think for a number of months

until we get to developments donald trump because of what you're talking about, the fact that he's able to say anything, he does not play by the rules and he taps into something where people feel anti-establishment unconventional, all that stuff, i think he can dominate the debate for some points to come. >> when you look at all the images, it's your weming. so how do these other contenders stand out when he's getting so much attention? >> in a week and a half, we're going have the first of presidential republican debates and nine others will stand up there with donald trump. for all of them how do we deal with donald trump. do we try to take him down steer clear of him. it's the central issue in terms of debate prep.

that's going to be the most when they focus on the republican field. that is the central strategic challenge of that moment. >> let's turn to hillary clinton. it's not a criminal referral but this is an issue that continues to dog her campaign. >> it does. they have some reason to be upset about the story in the "times." they say clinton referral. then they say it's not about her e-mails. then they say it's not about her criminal e-mails. >> she says she never september it. >> she's basically arguing that she's never knowingly did that which is to say the e-mails she sent or received were never marked classified. that's true. what seems to be at issue is should they have been marked classified. and this is based on various

aspects of the government over turf. there's a legitimate issue. because it's not clear whether shg should or should not be classified, was it bad thing for hillary clinton to have this server at home which would have made them more vulnerable. it does go to a substantial problem for her. >> how does she get past it, john? shoo she's eventually going to testify and there's still some squabling about that. we think she's going to go before h t house benghazi committee meeting and answer questions. there are still some who say she has to turn over the server. this issue will continue to dog her until she has to answer every question as her husband likes to say until the last dog dies. >> there we go. we've got dog in there a number of times.

your options if statins don't work alone. this class of cholesterol fighters could protect millions of americans from heart disease but the price could send overall health care costs soaring. our dr. agus is in las vegas. good morning. >> good morning. >> how does this work? >> it's such great story. in the study of heart disease there was a family of african-americans with very bad low cholesterol, ldls and when they looked at their genes, a particular gene was turned off that makes a drug. friday it was approved in people who have a particular disorder of a very high cholesterol and also people where statins doesn't work enough. >> so will these drugs replace statins? >> right now they're in addition to statins and they probably will benefit significantly people who can't tolerate statins which is anywhere from 3% to 5% of the population. so it is a very important drug

and it's the first big advance in preventing heart disease since the statins. >> as you were speaking, dr. agus, we showed how expensive this injection is. it's an astronomical cost. do you think it's worth it? >> that's the key question. when you develop a new drug and you're the first out there, you have a monopoly. you can charge whatever you want and insurers have to pay especially if they have an impact on how well or how long you live. $14 million a year. the thing is you're on it for many, many years so we as a society have to look at this and say is it right. >> do you think this is one more tool in the tool backes? >> it's a fantastic tool. if each is priced excessively higher, what are you going to do? this is predatory.

you can price a drug any price you want and you have to pay. we have to figure out a way to assign value and appropriate pricing to drugs. >> the idea david, isn't it eventually competitive drugs come out and drives the price down. but that doesn't always happen does it? >> no. this is one of the few businesses where the price goes up. >> why david? >> because you can. every year you go out there, the price goes up not down. we have to look at this. when the competitor comes out, they take part of the market share. we need to figure out a way to do this appropriately. we need to figure out a structure, how you can incentivize for information at the biotech and pharmaceutical companies, and at the same time not bankrupt society. >> all right. dr. david agus this morning. thank you. london's nickname is ceremony. but this morning charlie d'agata is showing how that world is finding new meaning in the city.

movies which don't always show us in the right light. in all the years i've been in business, las vegas has never marketed weddings. >> you never had to. >> we should have been. >> what do you want to focus on. >> vegas is a really nice place to get married at an affordable price. >> reporter: that was the appear for jeremy and courtney parker. >> the decision to have a civil ceremony as opposed to a big wedding, what caused that? >> we're cheap. >> you didn't want elvis to marry you? >> i've god blue suede shoes on snoop you didn't want elvis to marry you? >> reporter: for a city that has constantly reindeveloped itself,

he fought off a great white on live tv. he escaped without a scratch. key & peele ending its run. they told us last year what they >> you know our very favorite thing to do gayle s do sketches that have nothing do with race. we love doing the "les mis" sketch where we're just -- we're just french revolutionaries in the midst of the struggle. that's the beauty of having a sketch show. you can have a sketch about a topical issue like race and you can follow it up with something completely silly and fun. >> the current fifth season will be its last. it was their decision to leave and explore other things. >> i really like them both. they're a lot of thuns. lawnondon's ""daily mail"" reports. he likes to exaggerate his age.

he met another boy who said he was 3. she says george says that. he thinks he's older. >> i like to exaggerate my age down. >> reporter: they look at new research showing rude behavior is contagious just like the common cold. the university of florida study rudeness at work are more likely to treat co-workers the same way. rudeness can spread like a virus. heidi is an associate director of motivation science center at columbia business school. good morning. >> good morning. >> i think this is all-intuitive. we could all guess that this behavior is somewhat contagious but what did you find at in the study? >> they specifically looked at how rude someone is in a negotiation. you and i are in a negotiation and you are rude to me. what they found is if i

negotiated with norah, i would be rude to her and she would be rude to the next person so on and so on. it seems to spread like a common cold. the good news is it's really not just about rudeness but, in fact, all human behavior can spread this way. so ka emotions and goals. >> why do you think that happens? why do you pass that on? >> it's happening entirely unconsciously. human beings are incredible mimics. we tend to often mickmic. we have neurons in the brain that are firing. in the rudeness study they found people were thinking a lot of thoughts about rudeness after someone was rude to them. you're more likely to respond. >> that tees second-hand effect. >> yes exactly.

you're seeing rudeness and cause for being rude where there is none. >> if it's a trigger o or chain reaction, is it possible for the first person to not be toll rant and you sort of break it or end it? >> there are a few things that can stop the contagion. for example, knowing about it. if you're aware of it in that moment and you're thinking this person is being rude i really don't want to be that way, that would break that way. ing if i really don't like you, your behavior is less contagious for me than if i really do like it. if you feel like the behavior is morally wrong, you're not going make it more contagious. >> all of us in the workplace. what about at home with spouses, family friends. >> it happens anywhere. and, in fact the closer someone is to you, more likely their mood is to be. >> if your spouse comes home in

a bad mood -- >> -- you're more than likely to indiana up being in one yourself. that's why couples as they live together become more alike. they really do actually sponge off one another, mimic one another. i don't know if they end up like their pets. >> what about your children? >> your children absolutely absorb a lot from their parents and from their piers. everybody watches that when they become teenagers. again, they don't know they're mimicking, it's very unconscious, but they do. >> all right. heidi halvorson. thank you. >> thank you. an american cook lesson is under way. the home is home to 56 southern barbecue restaurants. how grits are going down home with flavor far from home. >> reporter: brad mcdonald is a

long way from his hometown in yazoo city on the mississippi delta, but the acclaimed chef is bringing his narrative of the down home southern cooking to britain. >> a lot of british people are enamored by southern cook whatever it is. there's a history that they're attracted to and want to know about. >> reporter: of course, hot dogs and hamburgers have been over here forever, but this is way beyond that. the lockharts in london serve up southern staples like mallard gumbo, honey buttered cornbread and shrimp and grits. the grits have to be imported but mcdonald said it's not that

hard. >> a lot of the breeds i'm used to working with in the u.s. actually come from the uk. >> reporter: but the fried chicken is by far more. >> e'd put it up against anybody in london that's for sure. >> now he's got some comefort. they've taken barbecue to a new era big time. in all its sumptuous damned glory. restaurant critic and food writer says it's a recipe that works. >> are brits ready for southern food? they're not too snobbish?

>> i think we're always ready to try something but there's a slight snippiness there's about replicated it and not messing around with it even if it might scare you. at least it's real. >> at the smoke pit, he's about as slietz gets. it was recently poached from a manhattan restaurant. >> i never thought it would take me to london. maybe jersey but not london. >> well now, london's raised the barbecue steaks thanks to a few talented colonials how to get it done. >> right there there's the lean or the flat. >> you want them to feel it and the food needs to complement

that. >> while some of that all-american food might get lost in translation, the southern hospitality speaks for itself. for "cbs this morning," charlie d'agata, london. >> that food sure looks good. >> thats it sure does. good for the brits. >> how did legos build such a huge following.

iran keeps their nuclear facilities. military sites can go uninspected.

restrictions end after 10 years. then iran could build a nuclear weapon in two months. iran has violated 20 inttiernaonal agreements an td iseahe lding state sponsor of terrorism. this summer take flight, without having to take a flight. because all the thrills you need are right here at busch gardens, and water country usa. in williamsburg, va. like the daring new coaster tempesto. so ride together slide together whether it's monster drops collossal curls or furry friends it's all here. vacation packages start at $50 per person per night. the ultimate summer vacation is closer than you think at busch gardens and water country usa.

$37. >> that's awesome. >> now that song's going to be in our head all day long. the lego movie hit the theaters like a ton of toy bricks with half a million dollar in ticket sales. by last year the total number of lego pieces created reach eded over 1 6 0

160 million. there's a new brickamentary. >> do you know who's the best builder? my mom. >> i'm finishing up a few birch trees behind the library. we're in the middle. we're really excited about finishing it but we're also surprised at how big it turns out to be. you never quite know when you're working on one section at a time until you put it all together. >> oscar winner daniel is the co-director of it. you like me were a fan of legos growing up. why this documentary? >> i'm a huge fan and i have a tremendous liking to it including my classic set. i'm an adult fan of lego which you'll learn in the film.

it came to us by happenstance. our exec producer wanted to do a film on one of these lego conventions. if you've ever gone, we thought that was interesting. we wanted do the whole world and they said yes and we were off and running. >> you mentioned you approached lego. i must imagine this took a lot of time with these master artists? >> master builders. >> master builders, sorry. >> no. we had unprecedented access to lego but this is an independent piece. we worked with them. the box office movie, we hope we can tail on just a wee bit. but being in the lego atmosphere for that amount of time was amazing. >> i have two teenagers now, but

i still find that i'm pulling lego pieces out of the back of my sofa. >> out of your toes? >> they migrate everywhere. this is family owned, a small place in denmark. they've become so huge. ten years ago they almost went bankrupt. what do you attribute to this? >> they're now the number one toy company so it's hard to imagine a decade ago they were on far times. there are a variety of reasons but what's explored in the film is they lost touch of what they do and the audience that's grown up around them. there's a lot of adults playing with this. i think it took lego a lot to understand that. >> what about the involvement of women and girls in lego.

>> well, i have a 7-year-old daughter. you have a daughter. there's historically been a gender gap. some of our builders such as the woman you saw there are the best builders builders. you're going to see that come down. >> you saw a lego prosthetic arm honored wi an award. they do have a greater impact. >> it is a toy, but it's also a system and it's a building system that everyone understands. it's so inta'uive that people are using it for therapy, we found out. engineering. people are using it to solve complex mathematical projects. it's making movies. is's beyond what this danish guy invented. >> you mentioned going to the convention. there's really -- there's its own language around lego around

there, isn't there? >> that's right. you start hearing things like stot, stot or burp big ugly remaining piece. >> there

that does it for us. vinita, anthony, thank you for being here. be sure to tune in to the "cbs evening news with scott pe
