in port la varka, texas. >> reporter: good morning. as we start to feel the first effects of hurricane har vishgs t harvey, the rain, wind and rising tide, comparison to 2008's ike has already begun. if harvey remains on its current path, it could be far more br t destructive. people are moving inland away from the low-lying coastal areas nearly oh blisserated by hurricane ike in 2008. >> walls blown out. boats turned upside down. >> reporter: hur cake ike holds the distinction between the costliest in texas history. 103 people killed in the u.s. while about $30 billion was spent to repair the damage. the galveston sea fall is 17 feet high. a storm surge over that cou

to level the not seen since april. >> and with the effects of the storm down there, move 120 miles up the coast where demarco morgan is in galveston, one of the many areas under a storm surge warning. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. already starting to feel harvey's outerbands now as we speak. the wind picked up. the only thing keeping the gulf of mexico out of the city of galveston, this 17 foot high sea wall built about 100 years ago and has only been topped by hurricane ike which happened back in 2008. a lot of people keeping their eyes on this sea wall hoping for the best. when it comes to the west end of galveston you need to know they are not protected by a sea wall and under a voluntary evacuation and local officials are bracing for a potential six to nine foot storm surge. galveston's city manager is concerned about low lying areas like the city's downtown which could see severe street flooding because of a gravity-fed drainage system there operated and, of co,

the water from torrential rai efficiently. so the city's office of emergency management is basically asking everyone to prepare to survive for three to five days on food, water supplies, whatever you can get your hands on, but take precautionary measures right now. gayle? >> all right. demarco, good advice. meteorologist megan glaro of our chicago station, wbbm here with the forecast for harvey as it approaches landfall. got to be significant if you are here in person. >> right. gayle, with harvey we are looking at a major storm system, but the problem with this is, it's sitting over what we almost call premium fuel. sea surface temperatures are very high with this. while it's already a category 2, bordering on a category 3. expected to continue intensification and the then the issue will be, one it makes landfall, it's just going to sit and meander over the texas coastline here, and look at the intensity continuing to

surge, in addition to the issue with intense hurricane force winds, we now add to this days upon days of rain. so we're looking at rainfall totals which could be in excess of three feet in areas. including anywhere from corpus christi past houston, near the louisiana border, isolated totals could top 36 inches. >> thank you, megan. stay with cbs news for continuing coverage as hurricane harvey makes landfall. our streaming network, cbsn has updates 24 hours a day, available on the app and at cbs ne news.com. and president trump is continuing a feud with leaders of its own party. key legislative deadlines in september a prolonged standoff could trigary government shut down. we have the political discord at the e

>> reporter: mcconnell is the rg himself at odds with president trump, who will need the support of nearly every available republican if he wants to advance his legislative agenda. but patience from mr. trump's message may be wearing thin. tennessee senator bob corker recently said mr. trump hasn't demonstrated the stability nor competence to be successful adding, he doesn't think the president "understands the character of this nation." sanders blasted the senator for his comments. >> i think that's a ridiculous and outrageous claim and doesn't dignify a response from this podium. >> reporter: senator lindsey graham believes the president's attacks are deliberate. >> the congress is very unpopular particularly with the republican base. there's nothing unhinged about it. it's a political strategy i'm not sure is smart but it's a very thought-out strategy. >> reporter: in an interview with the financial times the president's only economic adviser gary

personalel of pressure to quit working for president trump after hills delayed condemnation of hate groups in charlottesville. gayle, he said the administration must do better. >> all right. interesting comments from gary cohn. thank you very much, margaret. denver police are investigating a series of disturbing videos and disturbing is the word. videos involving high school cheerleaders showing the student screaming in pain as they are forced into splits. the video was recordrd earlier in the summer but just surfaced this week. five denver school officials have been placed on leave. dana jane cobson is with us. >> good morning, gayle. kristen wakefield is the mother of one of the girls in the video. her daughter quit the team because she was afraid to be in the same room as her coach. that coach dismissed from a similar position at another colorado high school for doing the

cell phone video shows 13-year-old ally wakefield pleading, please stop, nine times, as she's forced into splits by her khmer leading coffee. >> i was thinking it was normal. i didn't think much of it. >> reporter: but the high school freshman suffered from torn muscle tissue and a pulled hamstring and receiving physical therapy. >> the doctor said 100% the injury sustained was directly caused by the knee of her coach on the back of her thigh forcing it to the store. it could affect reproductive organs as well. >> reporter: showing ally's teammates yelling in agony during similar stretches. the coach is ozell. in an interview williams said the videos are taken out of context.

"as the father of two high school-aged daughters, the images and accesses depicted of extremely distressing and absolutely contrary to our core values." as for ally, she's still trying to heal. >> the world is a scary place, and people you think you can trust, you can't always. you just have to trust your gut feeling. >> reporter: we could not reach coach williams for comment. the american association of cheerleading coaches and administrators says it viewed the videos and does not condone the coach's actions and rejects them to the fullest extent. >> so tough to watch. >> disturbing. i love how the -- not love, the fact the coach says the video's taken out of context. i can't imagine any con thatextt wo

[ applause ] rather than receive her winnings in 30 annual payments, the 53-year-old has chosen a single lump sum of $480 million after taxes she's taking home $336 million. >> a lot of people will be coming at her in order to try to recommend all sorts of different

years and pay off a car bought last year. plans beyond that are unclear. >> i'm going to go hide in my bed. [ laughter ] >> reporter: even with $336 million, get this. it is not enough to put wanczyk on forbes top richest americans and not enough to put her in the top 50 wealthiest people in massachusetts. gayle? >> we all love us some mavis in the studio. hoop happy, the lottery official. by her side the whole time. a great story. >> love it. >> love her. and taylor swift hoping her new song "look what you made me do," singing it all day, ryding to the top of the charts ahead. how the pop star uses social media to excite fan

bridge for lly 20 years. everybody says the bridge is dangerous. everybody says it has to be replaced, but nothing happens. >> reporter: you think there's political risk in actually building this bridge? >> sure there is. sure there it. it's one of the reasons the politicians stay away from it. we have a lot of big infrastructure projects we've tried in the past that haven't worked out and can be a career ender. so -- >> reporter: did that go through your mind? >> oh, only about seven times a week. >> the most spectacular project of the throughway is the three-mile bridge. >> reporter: the existing bridge, the tappan zee long ago deemed functionally obsolete. the cuomo bridge is a result of a public/private partnership designed and built by a private company and overseen by project director jamie

bridge like this last? >> service life. construction should last 100 years. >> reporter: it's built to last? >> yes it is. longer than us, i think. >> reporter: building it has taken 7,000 workers more than 9 million hours, 220 million pounds of american steel and enough concrete to stretch from here to key west. much of it was made on land, floated down the hudson river and maneuvered into place by a supercrane dubbed eye lift new york. could you have built this bridge without the crane? >> no. if you look behind me the beams are put together, put on a barge and lifted in place to span from pier to pier. >> reporter: it was shipped from california and paid a $70,000 toll to pass through the panama canal. >> wow! pretty spectacular. >> reporter: but worth it. >> about perspective.

big building in america. >> reporter: if the tappan zee bridge was the poster child for crumbling infrastructure in america, the cuomo bridge will be the poster child for what? >> for the optimism and the capacity and the competence that you doubt. what made america is what we built. the railroads, the tunnels, the bridges, the skyscrapers. we can't lose that. if we lose that, we lose who we are. that super crane we showed you, that helped build the new bridge is also going to take down the old bridge, because they have to take it down piece by piece for environmental concerns and recycle them, and that super crane can lift 12 stch chew statues of liberty at once. >> beautiful piece, norah. beautiful shot. >> really was. >> i can't imagine what it must be like for the

to the fights with isis in raqqah, syria so civilians can evacuate. they began an offensive against the self-declared capital in june. the u.s. estimates 20,000 people are trapped and at risk. isis released a disturbing video showing a 10-year-old american boy it claims. he is reportedly the son of an isis fighter living in rae ingi. if true, the first time an american child has been used in isis propaganda. the boy makes threats against the u.s. that appear to be scripted. our ongoing series called "issues that matter" exploring challenges our country faces.% today, a closer look at the nation's fight against isis. the state department says isis lost about 78% of its territory in iraq and 50% in syria since its peak in 2013.

happened in the past six months. s envoy for the global coalition to counter isis, served under three administrations and just returned from a 12-day trip to the middle east. welcome. >> thanks for having me. >> you were just in iraq. what have you learned? >> in iraq and syria. had the honor traveling with secretary mattis into jordan and iraq. about a week ago north of raqqah where we heard about this report. look, i think we have to keep things in perspective. serven months ago isis sitting n a infrastructure of a city happening only six or seven months ago. right now fighting for their life block-by-block. 60% of the city cleared. extreme extremely, extremely difficult and mindful of the report about potential humanitarian casualties. saying two things. we talked to a number of idps that came out of raqqah. >> whae

people who fled the ftieing is fleeing into the lines of the force we're working with and we are working with the united nations to try to take care of them. about 20,000 people remain left in raqqah. they tell us the number one thing we have to do to help these people, defight isis. they're using civilians as human shields, a hospital in raqqah as primary base of operations. the number one thing we have to do, defeat them and as soon as we can. it's going well. >> given the gains over the last six months while president trump has been in office, how has the strategy changed since president obama? >> well, a couple of -- when president trump came in, he said, look, charged the entire national security team to focus on a laser destroying isis. look what's working, reinforce those efforts and things that haven't and try to improve them. one thing he did early on was delegate authorities down to the lowest level in the field. that means in practice that as our military experts see an rt

the reason we're 60% through raqqah now is because we saw an opportunity about four, five months ago in a town called topka, just there. over a body of water, off an audacious military maneuver to do it. saw an opportunity, delegated authorities to the field helped us take advantage of that. an operation launched in a week and we caught isis by surprise helping to set conditions for getting into raqqah. delegate down authorities, shorten the cycle, it make as difference in the field and making sure our coalition it participating in the effort. i saw with my own eyes north of mosul. important for viewers to understand what these brave americans are doing in the field. in a town called tellskuf, a navy s.e.a.l. gave his life a year ago helping peshmerga. about 80% of the population returned. restoring their community. we are helping with the coalition to

mines are cleared, water can get back and running, electricity back and i saw with my own eyes as these families come back only six or seven months ago were controlled by isis. >> what you're saying, sounds encouraging. then we see that video, claiming there's an american little boy and describing him as an isis cub. a cute name for an ugly philosophy. when you see something like that, do you believe it? what do you make of it? >> let me say -- the leader of isis is a guy named baghdadi, claims to be the caliphate. losing all his territory. haven't heard from him since december and instead are putting out videos of children. i can't confirm this video or who this child is. they use children as human shields. try to recruit them at suicide bombers. used children inside iraq to blow up children's soccer games, attack ice cream parlors of familyoi

ede. we are moving as fast as we possibly can't mindful of how difficult this is. >> the global game of whack a mole with these guys, how has that affected efforts on the battlefield? >> a great question. self-proclaimed caliphate, used to sit and plan the attacks. planned brussels, paris, planning against us. we have to shrink their territory. at the same time through a global coalition, built a globe coalition, 69 countries, and working to share information as we collect out off the battlefield who these people are, putting them into a global data base. >> information that you can figure out where the cells are? >> the key to stopping the attacks is information sharing. the overall effort will shift from the military phase in iraq and syria to law enforcement, intelligence and sharing

information. one of the newest members, i me interpol. known terrorists joined isis trying to move into iraq and syria and we want every law enforcement agency, border patrol officer can check a database and stop these people, routine stops trying to cross borders. it's a long-term effort, a long-term fight and information sharing, trying to close a net globally making sure they can't travel. just as focused on that as the military side. >> long term, everybody wants to know how long is long? norah said just back from iraq. literally just back. you just got back last night, just got back. >> i did. got back last night. interesting, even iraq, i was in saudi arabia before going to iraq. interesting things are going on in that part of the world. iraq and saudi arabia have not are any diplomatic relations since 1990. i visited the iraq/saudi border crossing just opened in 27

years. very helpful in terms of the post-isis phase making sure they can never come back and we'll have stability there. >> i'm thinking you need to come back to the table. >> so much to talk about. >> very interesting. thank you. >> thanks to you. >> thank you. coming up, one of the last great salmon runs on the planet threatened by what's under the alaska wilderness. ahead, how a push to mine a huge trove of gold and copper could affect the entirmt in alaska, affect the wildlife and our

impact on the brain's pathways. author fran smith writes, addiction remolds neural circuits to a supreme value to cocaine, heroin at the expense of other interests such as health, work, family or life itself. fran smith joins us at the table to discuss. hello. good to see you. i think when most think of addicts they don't think they got brain issues. >> the brain play as huge role. addiction causes hundreds of changes in the structure of the brain, and the chemistry of the brain and the pathways that send nerve signals so that cells communicate with each other. and the -- it's very complicated but the basic essence of it is that it remaps the brain and causes the brain to focus on this one thing. one thing only. that object of desire, and blot out other things of interest. so i think of it kind of like a yoom lens on a camera.

thing and everything else is out of view. at the same time, the brain changes your ability to put the lid on desire. >> this kind of thinking, when did it start? back when addiction was affecting the black community and inner city, just cast aside as junkies, addicts, seen as a moral failing. now it's become more pronounced in other communities, now we hear it's a disease. when did that change and how did that change? >> well, the community recognized that it's a disease for a long time, the medical community. law enforcement is coming around. i was in huntington, west virginia, hit hard and talked with the former police chief saying we aren't going to arrest our way out of this problem. what changed it, not only as the opioid epidemic, that's opened up people's eyes to the problem, but the -- the technology. back in the '70s when heroin was a real problem in the inner cities weid

scanners. nobody knew what was going on inside it's brain. >> given that, will we see an addiction vaccine in our lifetime? >> there is work on addiction vaccine. a number of studies. there have been promising results, but nothing immediately on the horizon. >> some of the things that have been helpful include cognitive therapy. right? how can we retrain the brain after being addicted to drugs or alcohol? >> right. cognitive therapy has shown really great effects for lots of people, and it really trains people how to think it differently about -- about drugs and alcohol, and you can see in brain scanning studies that it really does begin to change how those circuits are operating. rewiring the brain. >> are some more prone to addiction than others? >> there are genetic sfeectsasp. know identified a gene or addictive person at. one thing we know is that kids,

people who have addiction later in life really begin misusing drugs or alcohol as teens or young adults. >> adolescent brain is still very, very vulnerable, not fully formed. >> exactly. >> your article is very, very good. very well done. a lot of good information there. >> thank you very much. >> thank you. >> fran smith. that article i talked about is in the september issue of "national geographic" out tuesday. comedienne amy schumer caught up in a new debate over equal pay. variety magazine flatly asked netflix for more money for her comedy special. the request came after chris rock and dave chappelle made headlines commanding $20 million for a network special. first received $11 million for the special and later received significantly more. some people on social media began to criticize schumer saying, she doesn't deserve the same pay as two comedy icons. >> god forbid she would ask for more money. schumer posted on

clarify, women deserve equal pay, but not to chris and dave. they are legends and two of the greatest comics of all-time. i didn't ask for the same as my friends. i did ask for more than the initial offer. i think that's an important clarification. >> she's classy, and funny. we love her. >> i don't know about classy. >> i don't even think amy schumer would call her classy. coming up, the peaceful alaskan landscape. i love the jokes. spoiled by the construction of a golden copper mine ahead. what i learned in alaska about the possible impact on the food chain,

a hot debate is brewing in alaska these days over what is worth more. gold in the ground or gold in the water? a reported 60 million salmon surged through the state's bristol bay last month. some 30 million caught and will feed half of the world's demand. near the headwaters of bristol bay, a canadian mining company northern dynasty found what they think could be the biggest gold and copper mine in the world, and if they dig it, the side effects could be toxic. that mine's development stalled under president obama, but president trump's administration has given the controversial

project new life and as part of my serious "the wonder list" i learn how this might be affected including the big furry residents of cat mine national park. ♪ >> reporter: this is not supposed to happen. we are supposed to hunker down and admire distant grizzlies through long lenses. these two didn't get that memo. holy [ bleep ]. that's unbelievable! we in the middle of a bear parade. >> well, we stood our ground. we -- we made our focus in one spot and they came to us. >> reporter: yeah. >> you guys okay? having fun? >> oh, yeah. >> reporter: brad believes this is safe in part because this is one of the rare spots in alaska where humans carryam

instead of guns. >> here's that one place where bears respect people, because the people respect bears. >> reporter: there was a time when the state of alaska naught they killed the bears there would be more fish for the people, but brad tells me the salmon runs weren't nearly as healthy. when this guy poops in the woods as bears do, he's spreading marine nutrients in the values, stewards where everything is connected by salmon. >> scared every year. will they come back? every year they show up like miracles i say, oh, thank you. everybody's happy. the bears, gulls, eagles, foxes, wolves, all cash in. >> reporter: at the top of that food chain are all the people that cash in on the salmon, and what really worries them these days is what lies benieath the ground above bristol bay. >> it's this spot right here. >> reporter: turns out t

spot mark as monster fortune. northern dynasty believes there are 100 million ounces of gold in them there hills, amen shill0 billion pounds of copper. this little chunk of real estate, this chunk, could be worth half a trillion dollars over the next century or so. but in addition to gold and copper, this ground also holds millions of tons of sulphur. mixed with air and water, sulphur turns to acid. critics of the pebble mine worry that acid could get into the watershed, destroying one of the last great salmon runs left on the planet. >> the developers of pebble mine insist shes can pull that gold and copper out safely. the idea the mine will destroy the fishery is incorrect, they insist, but fishermen and kovationists and native tribes disagree and fought the project more than a decade. then president trump won and one

development of the mine to move forward. so the fishing folk, interesting. you have fishing republicans versus mining republicans fighting over what do we want to risk? you know, salmon used to run all up and down the east coast. we dammed so many rivers, the last great spot, where they just keep coming back in droves, is so well managed, it's there, and a lot of people say that's not worth gambling. >> wow. >> really is one of the most beautiful places in the world. alaska is. >> yeah. >> really is. >> thinking that, too. >> the bears. never thought i'd get that close. >> i saw the guide shooing away the bears. where were you? >> right behind him. >> oh, okay. >> and we have guns on them. okay? >> no. a flare. one spot where there are no hunting. they've opened up hunting for predators elsewhere in alaska but this one spot, they get to co-exist. >> when i
