In the race for the white house the latest poll shows donald trump and ben carson neck and neck on the republican side. Marco rubio and ted cruz are the only others in double digits. The poll also found that against Democrat Hillary Clinton trump could not win but carson, chris christie, rubio, and cruz could. For rubio a rise in the polls means rising scrutiny. And heres major garrett. Reporter marco rubios personal finances faced scrutiny at last weeks gop debate. You accidentally intermingled Campaign Money with your personal money. You faced foreclosure on a second home that you bought. And just last year you liquidated a 68,000 retirement fund. Thats something that cost you thousands of dollars in taxes and penalties. You just listed a litany of discredited attacks from democrats and my political opponents. Reporter these are the facts. While a member of the Florida House of representatives rubio failed to disclose 34,000 in personal expenses charged to two separate political funds. A home he owned with a fellow lawmaker fell briefly into foreclosure when the coowner failed to make mortgage payments. Rubio sold the home at a loss earlier this year. And in 2005 he started using a state Republican Party charge card for personal and party expenses. Rubio insists he paid off the personal charges as they arose. Rubio admits to sloppy bookkeeping. He was cleared of wrongdoing by a florida ethics watchdog in 2012. Today in New Hampshire rubio addressed his financial past. What i said that i would do differently is i just wouldnt have done any personal things on it because i would have avoided all that confusion that its created in the minds of some. But its been coming up for five years. So its not a new issue. Stopped rubios rivals like donald trump from attacking him. Marco rubio has a disaster on his finances. He has a disaster on his credit cards. Reporter one chapter of rubios financial history remains hidden. Scott, rubios campaign has those records and told us the senator has nothing to hide and under pressure may release those records before tuesdays republican president ial debate.

Houston voted 61 to 39 against discrimination in housing and employment based on age, sex, or gender identity. Omar villafranca reports the gender identity part overwhelmed the issue. Reporter the measure was called the houston equal rights ordinance but opponents dubbed it the bathroom bill and made the name stick through a series of ads that claimed women and children would become vulnerable to sexual predators in ladies rooms. Protect womens privacy, prevent danger, vote no on the proposition 1 bathroom ordinance. It goes too far. Reporter the ordinance made no mention of bathrooms, but it was the inclusion of gender identity that opponents like Lieutenant Governor dan patrick seized upon. And im glad houston led tonight to end this constant Political Correctness attack on what we know in our heart and our gut as americans is not right. Reporter houston mayor anise parker, who is lesbian, had endorsed the measure. This is a calculated campaign of lies designed to demonize a littleunderstood minority. Reporter 17 other states and 200 municipalities including five major cities in texas have similar language banning discrimination based on Sexual Orientation and gender identity. Jared woodfell helped organize opposition to the bill. When the people finally had an opportunity to express their will on it, to show how they felt about it at the ballot box, they overwhelmingly said no to the mayors personal agenda. They said no to her bathroom ordinance. Reporter lou weaver is transgender and a community activist. Right now im disappointed. But i also know that its not over, that im going to get up and im going to continue this fight, im going to continue to educate about this, and that we will win. Reporter already some groups are calling for a boycott of houston businesses if the measure is not overturned, and that could be significant, scott, because houston is in the running to host the 2017 super bowl.

Reporter the pope is spiritual leader to millions of catholics. Hes also ceo of a multibilliondollar enterprise, the vatican. But, say the two new books, behind all this magnificence lies a financial mess. Emiliano fitipaldi is the author of avarice. Is it incompetence inside the vatican when it comes to handling money . Or is it corruption . [ speaking Foreign Language ]. Reporter both, says fitipaldi, and at the highest level. For example, the book focuses on one of the churchs charities. Catholics werefrom around the world sent in money to help the needy. But in the end, of every 10 that came in, 8 went to the vatican bureaucracy and only 2 went to the poor. Then theres the price of sainthood. It can cost up to half a Million Dollars for the vatican to approve a canonization. Meanwhile, the books say the vaticans pension fund is 800 million in the hole. Today, the vatican said the books facts and figures are oust date and a massive cleanup led by pope francis is already under way. In fact, the books revelations may actually help the pope take on the powerful vested interests that oppose him, says cbs consultant father anthony sigareno. This is an institution 2,000 years old where things have been done in a certain way for thousands of years. The holy father wants it all sorted out. Absolutely. Him, good.

None of the people im sure if you interviewed them would ever think they were going to need a parachute device but they did, and theres a lot of thankful spouses and parents. Reporter boris popov invented the device thats now in more than 30,000 aircraft. The idea came to him after his hang glider broke hundreds of feet in the air. All the way down i was myself, i could have had some sort of parachute device on board. So i promised myself if i survived that i would develop some sort of a ballistic or rapid deploy parachute. Reporter earlier this year a pilot flying to hawaii deployed the chute on his cirrus over the Pacific Ocean when he had a fuel problem. In 2009 a chute brought this plane down safely into a d. C.

Republican president ial hopeful donald trump wasted no time jetting up to New Hampshire to become the first gop candidate to sign up for the states first in the nation primary. Trump paid the 1,000 entry fee with a certified check and joked that the bank its drawn on isnt as rich as he is. For the democrats Martin Omalley also signed up, but although omalley is a long shot to gain the nomination, trump is back on top. The latest Quinnipiac College poll shows trump edging out ben carson 24 to 23 . Trump is also hawking a new book that critics describe as a longer version of his stump speech. Major garrett reports. Reporter donald trump unveiled his new book crippled america published by simon schuster, a division of cbs, and then said almost nothing about the book itself. Trump did call on many of his republicans in the president ial race to drop out. He dismissed others running close to him. And he even called the obama economy a bubble waiting to burst. Our country has no spirit. Reporter donald trump began his book tour in a spirit of spqte. For the gop establishment. Its called really the failed establishment because the establishment has let us down. We need a person that has tremendous personal energy. Reporter and many of his republican rivals. Do i think its time to have some of the other republican candidates drop out . Yes. There are too many people. Reporter paying special attention to florida senator marco rubio. I think that really marco is overrated. All you have to do is look at his credit card. Hes a disaster with his credit cards. Reporter and questioning the staying power of ben carson. When a man is weak on immigration and wants to get rid of medicare, i dont know how he stays there. Reporter trump says carson, a renowned neurosurgeon, lacks experience. Carson responded at his own book signing in tampa. Say . Would you expect him to say yeah, ben carsons got a lot of experience, more than i do. Reporter jeb bush was in New Hampshire tuesday where a new poll shows he has dropped to sixth behind trump, carson, and rubio. By the way, good Energy Reporter and he found himself running from the fronrunners attacks. I also have good energy every night. Reporter trump, a real estate mogul, even said president obama has ordered Federal Reserve chairman janet yelltone preserve low interest rates, in part to keep a housing bubble aloft. And he wants to get out of office because we are in a bubble and when those rates are raised a lot of bad things are going to happen. Reporter the white house denied meddlinwith the fed and tried to puncture trumps bubble theory. Thats an economic observation made by someone who at least tells the country he has some experience in real estate. And somebody who has declared bankruptcy like four times too. That line avenue tack has one flaw. Trump has never personallylyiled for bankrurucy. Companies within his empire have, and trump subsequently sued them for damaging his brand. Which brings us back to trumps new book, where he says part of his success, charlie, springs from knowing how to sell himself and nipulate the media. Marijuana enthusiasts in ohio are scrambling after a constitutional amendment to legalize the drug went up in smoke. The vote was 21 against allowing pot for medical and recreational use. But as adriana diaz reports from columbus, there was more on the ballot than just the weed. Reporter voters here in ohio voted overwhelmingly against the constitutional amendment to legalize marijuana. The decision came after months of controversy and debate about the group backing the legislation. This is a bump in the road. Reporter supporters of issue 3, an initiative to legalize medical and Recreational Marijuana in ohio, are regrouping after voters strongly shut down the measure on tuesday. Never have we seen a proposed amendment this detailed for a small handful of people. Reportet state representative mike curtain and other local lawmakers opposed a marijuana monopoly in the state, giving control over production to a small handful of wealthy people. The financial backers of a prolegalization campaign called responsible ohio. The law would have allowed them to grow marijuana exclusively at ten privately owned locations. My issues not legalization of marijuana. My issue is not using the state constitution to carve yourself a business exclusive. Reporter even some supporters of issue 3 were concerned about its economic model. I was really initially excited about the amendment for marijuana until i got to read it a little bit and realized im not a fan of the monopoly situation. Reporter responsible ohio is made up of 24 known investors, including former pop star nick lachey. The group outspent their opponents 201. We have to assess what all of this means and see if theres a will on the part of folks to go forward. Reporter Ohio Governor and republican president ial candidate john kasich applauded the decision, saying in a statement, at a time when too many families are being torn apart by drug abuse ohioans said no to easy access drugs. Responsible ohio says the only reason they went the route of having a small group of investors push to get this on the ballot is because marijuana a bills here at the state house have stalled for the last 19 years. They said theyll likely try again next year. Federal investigators are trying to determine what caused a small plane to drop out of the sky overerrkansas. It wasnt a tragedy because the plane was actually saved by an onboard parachute. The aircraft drifted slowly out of the sky a a landed on a road in fayetteville. Kris van cleave has more on the accident that could have been much worse. Reporter that parachute is right back here inside cirrus aircra like the one bill simon was flying tuesday. He took off from 235i yetville, arkansas heading for waco, texas when he had an engine problem. As he was losing altitude he made a splitsecond decision, and it saved lives. Oh, my god. Reporter witnesses watched in amazement. Were going to try to find a place thats clear. Reporter a singleengine plane suspended by a parachute gliding to the ground. Theres a plane coming down with a parachute. Plane down, plane down. Reporter it landed on this stretch of road. The entire aircraft still visibly intact. Looked up, there was a plane like freefalling for a second, then popped a parachute. Reporter seconds before touching down the plane struck a pickup truck carrying a female driver and two children. That driver and all three people on board the plane including the pilot, former walmart ceo bill simon, wked away with just minor injuries. They were losing engine and altitude, so they popped the emergency chute on the plane, which brought them down slowly. Reporter that emergency ballistic parachute is built into the planes fuselage, a standard feature on this type of aircraftftince the 1990s. The idea of the Cirrus Aircraft and the kluftmeyer brothers who designed it is there should be another option, that the penalty for bad judgment, for bad luck shouldnt be death. Reporter James Fallows is National Correspondent for the atlantic and a pilot who also flies a cirrus. It certainly is a future for smaller planes. I think people on your boeings and airbuses probabay are not going to be needing these and again shouldnt because those planes are so safe. But for the smaller planes i think the evidence becomes clear. Why would a plane not have this kind of Safety System . Reporter in january a pilot landed this cirrus in the middlele of the Pacific Ocean after it ran ououof fuel en route to hawaii. And in 2009 mechanical problems forced the pilot of another cirrus to deploy his chute over a washington, d. C. Suburb. Both pilots survived. At least 50 cicius parachutes have been deployed. More than 30,000 aircraft of various types have parachutes on board. Theyre credited with saving more than 200 lives. Into yesterdays incident. Fun. That is fun. Its already dry it dried right away.

An italian author is defending his exosive allegations against the vatican. His s w book accuses powerful church leadede of deception, greed, and financial mismanagement. He claims theyre fighting against the reforms put in place by pope francis. Elizabeth palmer in rome sat down with the man behind the charges. Reporter well, allegations of financial mismanagement at the vatican are not new, of course. But this book does provide detail on a whole variety of murky dealings, and it also sheds some light on how the current pope has reacted. Revered by millions of cathocs around the wld, pope francis emerges in the booooas a lonely crusader battling against powerful v vted interests to clean up Epic Financial mismanagement and corruption in the vatican. Gianluigi nuzzi is the author of merchants in the temple. Was there e e thing in particular that shocked you more than anything else you discovered . [ speaking Foreign Language ]. Reporter the shock was ongoing, he said. This pope is trying to make sweeping changes, and its going to take a long time. Thats because the mess is a big one. According to the book, it includes a real estate portfolio thats worth seven times as much as the vatican shows on its books. And donations from churches around the`world intended for the poor, which actually went into a slush fund to pay vatican running costs. The revelations are based in part on secret recordings of meetings the pope held with senior cardinals, recordings which were then leaked. In a statement the vatican sai such actions are a serious betrayal of trust granted by the pope. But in fact, Pope Franciss quest for transparency and accountability m actually have been given a huge boost by all this publicity. And he we have heard from the pope indirectly on this through a tweet from his chief of staff. His words, simply onward with determination and serenity. A new study shows a lot of younger americans are losing their religion. The Pew Research Center found fewer than half of all millennials say religion is very important to them. Only half say they believe in god with absolute certainty. That compares to 70 of baby boomers. All this is changing the way americans are getting married these days. Adriana diaz reports. At altars like this one couples have been exchanging vows to have and to hold for centuries. But the amount of americans getting married by a priest in a catholic churcrcis down more than 60 person since 1970. More and more americans are asking their friends to dot honors. We met one couple who believe it or not s s down with us an houou before their wedding for an interview to tell us why.

Reporter megan and patrick who were both raised catholic, broke from tradition. They asked pats college friend, matt ferrari, to officiate the ceremony, not a catholic priest. Having a minister or priest up there who doesnt know us would have seemed fake. I believe im quite qualified to say this. Youve clearly outkicked your coverage by marrying megan. I think megan was a little nervous at first knowing matt, but hes done a great job. Reporter the majority of amateur officiantseceive certification from websites like the universal life church, a nondenominational online ministry. In 2014 the church ordained 250,000 people and expects a 30 increase this year. The site says ordination is fast, free and easy with no experienceceecessary. I for one happen to think experience is pretty necessary to stand with the wedding couple to make sure that they are getting off on the righthtoot. Reporter steven stark lowenstein studied for five years to become a rabbi. He says clergy are specially trained to support couples throroh pre and postmarital counseling. But in the digital age he says spouses can overlook that traditional support. The world is changing so rapidly that religion is kind of being relegated to a back seat. I dont believe it has to be that way. But so many of the millennials dont even want to give us a chance. Reporter 35 of millennials, americans 19 to 34, identify as nonreligious. Thats compared to 17 of baby boomers and just 11 of those over 70. Do you take patrick to be your lawful wedded husband . Eporter megan and pat are rt of the 18 of amemecans raised within a faith whove given it up. I think part of my transition away from religion started when i became a little bit more political and i realized that didnt really agree with the politics of, you know, my church and all of that, and i needed to make a decision for myself. I was raised catholic. My mom is probably rolling her eyes as shes watching this right now. But u know, i went my own way. We were a generation i think that kind of chooses our own path. Today their lives, which began on separate paths, will be joined as one. What do you think it is that you can bring to this wedding that perhaps a religious figure cant . I think i can connect the dots between patrick and megan and how theyve evolved in this relationship. You started this journey years sgo just two miles from here. It more of a personal ceremony. By the power invested in me, i now pronounce you husband and wife. Patrick, you may kiss your bride. [ cheers and applause ] reporter a sacred bond fueled by friendship, not faith.

Putting a brace across the seat, attaching it to a winch, and pulling. So that passes. That passes the standard. Reporter with stdards so low, canr finds all vehicle seats and even that banquet chair meet or exceed the federal requirements. But failures like this can still happen. Do car makers know this is an issue . Yes. Reporter theyve actually known for decades. In a 1996 deposition a General Motors engineer admitted gm started tethering dummies to the seats during crash tests because the chances of losing them were pretty high. Improving the seats wouldnt be expensive. One engineer being deposed said strengthening them would cost on the order of a dollar or so. This is a beltintegrated seat. Reporter longtime accident investigator ken cikulsky has beenrying to get the national highway Traffic Safety administration, or nhtsa, to require stronger seats since 1992 when he spoke to ed bradley on cbs 60 minutes. Its an inadequate standard. Its flawed as far as im concerned. Has that changed . No, it hasnt. Its basically the same today as it was then. Its a worthless standard. It does nothing for the consum. It does nothing for the industry. Reporter auto safety regulators nhtsas own researchers also warned of the issue in 92, citing examples of major or fatal injuries when seat backs collapse. The agency also had the results ofrash tests required for other Safety Standards which showed seat back collapses in 30mileanhour rear impacts. Despite that nhtsa does not require similar tests for seat strengths. If you cant talk to them about it who can you talk to . No one, i i ess. Reporter r htsa declined to speak to 60 minutes saying only the agency was investigating ways to strengthen the standard. That was in 1992. Weve known for years thaha reporter in 2000 then nhtsa administrator sue bailey told cbs news the agency would be looking into the seat back issue within a year.

Im sure everybody who buys a car would pay 50 more to make sure that this doesnt happen to them. I know i would. Reporter the warner and massey families settled their lawsuits against those carmakers. The automakers say their cars are safe, meet or exceed all federal safety staards and have improved over the years. For its part nhtsa says it didnt have the data to support changing the standard.

D a bomb bring down the russian planan britain says theres a significant possibility. And it suspends some flights. Also tonight, a Police Officer is accused of staging his own suicide to make it look like murder. Gliniewicz committed the ultimate betrayal. And no engine, no airport, no problem. Announcer this is the cbs overnight news. The British Government says there is what it calls a significant t ssibility that a bomb brought down that russian jetliner in egypt last weekend. The British Foreign minister said intelligence points in that direction, but he did not say what that intelligence is. U. S. Officials are telling us mechanical failure has still not the airbus a321 broke apart at 31,000 feet, raining w wckage on egypts sinai peninsula. It took off from the seaside resort of Sharm Elsheikh, bound for st. Petersburg, russia. All 224 on board wer killed, and allen pizizy has the latest. Reporter the British Government said it was temporarily suspending flights to and from Sharm Elsheikh over fears the russian jet may have had a bomb on board. It is also sending British Aviation experts to the egyptian airport to assess the security situation further. Foreign secretary phillip hammond. We have concluded that there is a significant possibility thth that crash was caused by an explosive device on board the airport. Reporter it comes on the same day an isis affiliate in sinai released an audiotape daring investigators to prove that we did not take the plane down. Egyptian preredent Abdel Fattah Al sissi has dismissed the isis claim as propaganda. The russians have also been skeptical of any terror plot. But isis has recently been angered by russias air Strike Campaign against them in syria. Today egyptian authorities said they had successfully extracted data from the planes flight data recorder but the cockpit voice recorder is partially damaged and weeks more work will be required. Ouou in the desest investititors have widened their search field to 15 square miles. Theories about what caused the crash also include an engine firar a fuel tank explosion caused by some mechanical failure. Dies of passengers s the front and rear seating sections reportedly have different injuries, with the ones from the back showing evidence of being burned. U. S. Intelligence officials stililarent ruling out the possibility that mechanical failure could have caused the plane to break up in midair, scott, but they arent dismissing the british conclusion that it could have been a bomb either. Allen pizzey in cairo tonight. Allen, thanks. Now with some insight into this well go to michael morel, former number two at the cia and now our cbs news Senior Security analyst. Michael, what do we know and what do we not know . Scott, what we know at this point was that there was an explosion on the aircraft. We know that from a heat flash picked up by satellites. We dont know whether that explosion was caused by a bomb or whether it was caused by an internal problem on thth aircraft such as in the fuel. We also know that isis has claimed responsibility publicly. And we also know that u. S. Intelligence has picked up conversations among isis m mbers saying that they brought the plane down. But theres not enough specificity in those conversations to give you confidence that theuys actually know what theyre talking about. So scott, i was a cia analyst for 33 years, and this is not enough information to make a definitive judgment that a bomb brought down the aircraft. Were still going to have to wait and see. And what would be enough information . Scott, either forensic evidence, bomb residue or bomb fragments, or conversations mong isis members that are specific enough to give you confidence that they were actually in on the plot and know what theyre talking about. And we dont have that tonight. Michael morel, former number two at the cia. Michael, thank you. Youre welcome, scott. When a fox lake, illinois Police Officer was shot to death in september, swarms of cops joined a dragnet to find the three mehe said he was chasing. The cop was hailed as a hero, cut down in the line of duty, until today when we learned it was all a lie. The officer, an instructor who created fictional crime scenes, had done it o last time. And heres dean reynolds. Reporter after a twomonth, 300,000 inquiry involving 150 investigors, it came down to this. Lieutenant Joe Gliniewicz was a crooked cop who killed himself but tried to make it look like a murder. George falenco commands the Lake County Major Crimes Task force. Gliniewicz committed the ultimate betrayal. To the citizens he served and the entire Law Enforcement community. Theyre going to come in reporter investigators say for seven years gliniewicz stole tens of thousands of dollars from a Youth Program he oversaw. The Explorers Program for prprpective Police Officers was turned into his personal piggy bank for firstclass travel, mortgage payments, and subscriptions to pornographic websites. He behaved foror years in a manner completely contrary to the image he portrayed. Reporter that image was of a Straight Arrow g. I. Joe kind of cop. So popular with the public thousands turn out for his funeral. They say he drove on patrol to a secluded area and radioed he was following three men. Minutes later a backup unit found his lifeless body with two bullet wounds. But as investigators looked 6500 pages of his texts and 40,000 emails they found evidence pointing in a troubling directn. One text threatened that the body of a local administrator looking into gliniewiczs finances might wind up in a swamp. The shooting scene also raised doubts. With things like hish peppe spray andeyeglasses sttered on the ground to suggest a struggle. But the coroner found that gliniewicz had shot himself twice once in his bulletproof vest and once under it with h own semiautomatic handgun, ich he threw into the weeds before he bled to death. What investigators called a carefully staged suicide. Richard morrie was a gliniewicz neighbor. . G. G. Joe went from a hero to a criminal. Reporter commander falenco later told us the episode left him feeling ashamed. Those acts reflected on the entire police community. We took a black eye. Reporter a day before his death gliniewicz was told that his program was being audited. So, officials say, he tried to make it appear as if he had died in the le of duty because, scott, he wanted to be rememeered as a herond not as a thief. Dean reynolds tonight. Thank you, dean.

Marijuana enthusiasts in ohio are scrambling after a constitutional amendment to legalize the drug went up in smoke. The vote was 21 against allowing pot for medical and recreational use. But as adriana diaz reports from columbus, ere was more on the ballot than justed edthe weed. Reporter voters here in ohio voted overwhelmingly against the constitutional amendment to legalize marijuana. The decision came after months of controversy and debate about the group backing the legislation. This is a bump in the road. Reporter supporters of issue 3, an initiative to legalize medical and Recreational Marijuana in ohio, are regrouping after voters strongly shut down the measure on tuesday. Never have we seen a proposed amendment this detailed for a small handful of people. Reporter state other local lawmakers opposed the e ll, saying it would create a marijuana monopoly in the state, giving control over production to a small handful of wealthy people. The financial backers of a prolegalization campaign called responsisie ohio. The law would havellowed them to grow marijuana exclusively at ten privately owned locations. My issues not legalization of mariana. My issue is not using the state constitution to carve yourself a business exclusive. Reporter even some supporters of issue 3 were concerned about its economic model. I was really initially excited about themendment for marijuana until i got to read it a little bit and realized imm not a fan of the monopoly situation. Reporter responsible ohio is made up of 24 known investors, including former pop star nick lachey. The group outspent their opponents 201.

Reporter ohioovernor and republican president ial candidatjohn kasich applauded the decision, saying i ia statement,t,at a time when too many families are being torn apart by drug abuse ohioans said no to easy access drugs. Responsible ohio says the only reason they went theheoute of having a small group of investors push to get this on the ballot is because marijuana bills here at the state house have stalled for the last 19 years. They said theyll likely try again next year. Federal investigators are tryiyi to determine what caused a small plane to drop out of the sky over arkansas. It wasnt a tragedy because the plane was actually saved by an onboard parachute. The aircraft drifted slowly out of the sky and landed on a road in fayetteville. Kris van cleave has more on the accident that could have been much worse. Reporter that parachute is right back here inside Cirrus Aircraft like the one b bl simon was flying tuesday. He took off from 235i yetville, arkansas heading for waco, texas when he had an engine problem. As he was losing altitude he made a splitsecond decision, and it saved lives. Oh, my god. Reporter witnesses watched in amazement. Were going to try to find a place thats clear. Reporter 2a singleengine plane suspended by a paracacte gliding to the ground. Theres a plane coming down with a parachute. Plane down, plane down. Reporter it landed on this stretch of road. The entire aircraft still visibly intact. Looked up, there was a plane like freefalling for a second, then popped a parachute. Reporter seconds before touching down the plane struck a pickup truck carrying a female driver and two children. That driver and all three people on board the plane iluding the pilot, former walmart ceo bill simon, walked away with just minor injuries. They were losing engine and altitude so, they popped the emergency chute on the plane, which brought themmown slowly. Reporter that emergency ballistic parachute is built into the planes fuselage, a standard feature on this type of aircraft since the 1990s. Aircraft and the kluftmeyer brothers who designed it is there should be another option, that the penalty for bad judgment, for bad luck shouldnt be death. Reporter james flows is National Correspondent for the atlantic and a a pilot who also flies a cirrus. It certainly is a future for smaller planes. I think people on your boeings and airbuses probably are not going to be needing these and again shouldnt because those planes are so safe. But for r e smaller planes i think the evidence becomes clear. Why would a plane not have this kind of Safety System . Reporter in january a pilot landed this cirrus in the middle of the Pacific Oceanan after it ran out of fuel en route to hawaii. And in 2009 mechanical problems forced the pilot of another cirrus to deploy his chute over a washington, d. C. Suburb. Both pilots survived. Atateast 50 cirrus parachutes have been deployed.

Elizabeth palmer in rome sat down with the man behind the charges. Reporter well, allegations of financial mismanagement at the vatican are not new, of course. Buttthis book does provide detail on a whole variety of murky dealings, and it also sheds some light on how the current pope has reacted. Revered by millions of c tholics around the world, pope francis emerges in the b bk as a loney crusader battling against powerful vested interests to clean up Epic Financial mismanagement and corruption in Gianluigi Nuzzi is the author of merchants in the temple. Was there one thing in particular that shocked you more than anything else you discovered . . The shock was ongoing, he said. This pope is trying to make sweeping changes, and its going to take a long time. Thats because the mess is a big one. According to the book, it includes a real estate portfolio thats worth seven times as much as the vatican shows on its books. And donations from churches around the world intenend for the poor, which actually went into a slush fund to pay vatican running costs. The revelations are based in part on secret recordings of meetings the pope held with senior cardinals, recordings which were then leaked. In a statement the vatican said such actions are a serious betrayal of trust granted by the pope. But in fact, Pope Franciss accountability may actually have been given a huge boost by all this publicity. And he we have heard from the pope indirectly on this through a tweet from his chief of staff. His words, simply onward with determination and serenity.
