I come, he said, as a pilgrim of peace and an apostle of mercy. The masses of people along his route from the airport may have cheered in adoration but this is a place where danger lurks everywhere. The twoyearold civil war of muslims against christians has been violent in the extreme and torn this society apart. 900 french troops and 3,000 u. N.

They even brought sniffer dogs to check out a Church Center before he arrived for a brief visit. The u. N.

She wouldnt have survived much longer with the cold overnight temperatures, says Sergeant Marvin jaramilla. Anytime you have a helpless newborn child who cant help themselves, it is frustrating. There is a safe haven dropoff at any hospital or fire station. Reporter whoever abandoned this little girl could face charges of attempted murder. Jesse brew lives nearby. Who would do some dumb stuff like that over here . You know, thats why im saying they need to catch this person. You know, you need to go to jail. Reporter but amid the anger there is also relief. Thanks god, you know, we were there for that walk and then we found the baby. Reporter the infant is now in protective custody and recovering.

So a little bit of the blending of the retail of the physical and the online. Speaking of brick and mortar, though, one analyst we spoke to said foot traffic was down about 25 on black friday in stores. Not the end of brick and mortar entirely, though . Absolutely not. I mean, look, about 85 of all retail sales are occurring in physical locations. So its not dying. But what we are doing as consumers is were being smarter. Were using digital to inform our buying decisions, and retailers are doing both. Physical as well as online. It will be a good Holiday Season for informed consumers. So use that knowledge and shop well. All right, thank you very much. Thank you. There are new pictures of britains princess charlotte.

Coming up here, an architect who lost his sight but not his vision. ,,,,,,,, we close tonight with the story of an architect who has drafted a very different blueprint to success. Heres john blackstone. Reporter chris downey is a man with a plan. Plenty of plans. A lot of people didnt know what to say. What do you say to an architect thats lost his sight . He had been a successful and respected california architect, but in 2008 doctors found a tumor on his optic nerve. They successfully removed it. But it caused permanent blindness. And for downey some soul searching. I had a dad who died from brain surgery when he was 36 and i was 7. Here i was 45, and my son was 10, and i was alive. I just lost my sight. Reporter so he felt determined to carry on. As i move around, i can hear how the space changes. Reporter we first met downey nearly five years ago after he finished his first project for the department of veterans affairs. In your mind you can still see it. Oh, yeah. Definitely. The Creative Process was very much intact. What i needed were new tools. Reporter those new tools, which had served him well these past few years, include embossed building plans, a kind of braille blueprint, and wax sticks that he bends and manipulates to sketch. I really have a greater sense of being in the space, reading a drawing this way, than i did sighted. Reporter downey has gone on to design several structures that capture the eye and much more. What ive learned through this is that how a place feels, how it sounds, you dont do that just through the visual. Yet thats what we as architects tend to focus on. Reporter his latest project is the San Francisco headquarters of the lighthouse for the blind. He really knows the job. I think he probably knows it better than i do. Reporter David Faircloth is the project superintendent, who recently gave downey a tour. So have you started sheetrocking yet . Reporter carefully navigating past wires and other hazards. We are in the process of putting in our new beams. Overhead in. And the new beam is directly overhead. And you just hit the new beam. Thats the new beam. He was telling me, oh, yeah, i know where we are, this is a wood ceiling right here. So its really unique. Im an architect without sight. Not an architect without vision. An architect without vision is out of work. Reporter downey is not only working, hes thriving. And the reputation hes building is a sight to behold. John blackstone, cbs news, San Francisco.

President obama is in paris for todays opening of the world Climate Change summit. Leaders of more than 140 nations will try to establish a framework for reducing carbon emissions. Paris was the scene of the recent terror attacks and many protests have been banned but there were still clashsz. Margaret brennan is in paris. Reporter france is bracing for its biggest security challenge since the terror attacks two weeks ago. 147 World Leaders are gathering here in paris for a longplanned riot police have been deployed in unprecedented numbers.

The president will also have the chance here in paris to meet with Russias Vladimir Putin and other World Leaders who also are juggling the immediate danger of terrorism with the existential threat of Climate Change. Margaret brennan, cbs news, paris. Here in the u. S. Republican president ial frontrunner donald trump continues to Court Controversy on the campaign trail. The latest, his remarks about a New York Times reporter. Nancy cordes has more. Reporter trump insists he didnt know that New York Times reporter Serge Kovaleski suffers from a physical disability that limits the movement of his arms. But it sounded like trump knew him when he said this in myrtle beach tuesday night. Written by a nice reporter. Now the poor guy youve got to see this guy, oh, i dont know what i said, i dont remember. Reporter the times said it was outraged that he would ridicule the physical appearance of one of our reporters. Trump replied, i merely mimicked what i thought would be a flustered reporter trying to get out of a statement he made long ago. I do not know what he looks like. But kovaleski told the times donald and i were on a firstname basis for years. Back when kovaleski covered trump for the new york daily news. Trum hp used one of kovaleskis articles from 2001 to try to bolster his debunked claim that he saw thousands of muslims cheering on 9 11. Law enforcement authorities detained and questioned a number of people who were allegedly seen celebrating the attack. Reporter but kovaleski said this week those allegations were never proven and that he doesnt recall anyone saying there were thousands or even hundreds of people celebrating. Thats what set trump off. I dont remember. Hes going, i dont remember. Maybe thats what i said. This is 14 years ago, he still they didnt do a retraction. Reporter trump isnt apologizing. In fact, elaine, he said kovaleski should stop using his disability to grandstand. Another republican president ial hopeful, ben carson, is in the middle east. He visited a syrian refugee camp in jordan, and he says the syrians he spoke to are not interested in going to the u. S. John dickerson spoke with carson for face the nation. Dr. Carson, i want to ask you, you visited a syrian refugee camp. What did you learn there . Well, first of all, i was very impressed by the outpouring of humanitarian effort on behalf of the jordanians. This has been going on for many decades. But you know, they have really reached out to the syrians in a very big way. And i had an opportunity to talk with many of the syrians, and that was very eyeopening. Asking them what is their desire, what is their main desire. And their main desire is to be repatriated in their homeland. And i said what kinds of things could a nation like the United States do to help . And there was a pretty uniform answer on that. And that was they can support the efforts of the jordanians. The jordanians have done a yeomans job in terms of putting up these camps but the reason the camps are not full is because they are not supported by the International Community. It seems like everybody in the International Community is spending more time saying how can we bring refugees here rather than how can we support a facility that is already in place that the refugees are finding perfectly fine when its adequately funded. So your assessment visiting there is that jordan could take all the refugees, its just a matter of getting more Financial Resources . I think jordan could take a lot more of the refugees than theyre taking right now. I dont see any reason, quite frankly, that some of the other nations in the area shouldnt also be asked to do it so that you dont have to go through a big cultural change with them. And in terms of money, you know, when i looked at the refugee camps in jordan theres about a 3 billion shortfall. Annually. Thats how much money we spent last year on halloween candy. I mean, is it something that can be done . You know, if we bring 10,000 or 25,000 of them to the United States, thats not solving the problem. Thats a little bandaid that makes a few people say hey, were good guys. Thats not what we want to do. We want to actually solve the problem. Shooting at a planned parenthood location in colorado springs. Some abortion rights supporters have said that the rhetoric has led to that kind of violence. Whats your view on that . There is no question that, you know, hateful rhetoric, no matter which side it comes from, right or left, is something that is detrimental to our society. This has been a big problem. You know, our strength in this country has traditionally been in our unity. And we are allowing all kinds of circumstances to divide us and make us hateful toward each other. And the rhetoric is extremely immature, divisive and is not helpful when you have outside forces, global Islamic Radical jihadists who want to destroy us. Why would we be doing that to ourselves . We at some point have got to become more mature. No question the hateful rhetoric exacerbates the situation and we should be doing all we can to engage in intelligent civil discussion about our differences. Thats how we solve problems. We dont ever i pinky promised my little girl a Fabulous Garden Party for her birthday. So i mowed the lawn, put up all the decorations. I thought i got everything.

He has been called the final prisoner of the cold war. American allen gross was recently released after spending five years in a cuban jail. His crime bringing Internet Service to havana. Scott pelley reports for 60 minutes. They threatened to hang me. They threatened to pull out my fingernails. They said id never see the light of day. I had to do three things in order to survive. Three things. Every day. I thought about my family that survived the holocaust. I exercised religiously. Every day. And i found something every day to laugh at. Did you think in those early days, boy, the u. S. Governments going to get me out of here in the next week or so . Oh, i absolutely did for the first two weeks. And then i said to myself, where the hell are they . Where are they . You know, i figured i didnt have any idea id be there for five years. I knew i was in trouble. I knew i was in trouble. Reporter alan gross was attracted to trouble. Hes 66, a native of maryland, an Electronics Specialist who spent 20 years making the rounds of war and disaster, setting up communications for relief agencies. And thats why we say when we would connect when wed align the antenna and connect to the satellite wed be lighting the candle. Wed light her up. And we did that in a lot of places. Reporter in 2008 the place was cuba. Gross was hired by the u. S. Agency for international development. U. S. A. I. D. Is americas charity, delivering aid all around the world. But in cuba its mission was different. U. S. A. I. D. Asked gross to set up independent Internet Connections for the Jewish Community. Only 5 of cubans were online. But bypassing government censorship was illegal. Still, gross put together an equipment list that would do just that. The key was a device called a bgan satellite modem that made a direct connection to a satellite. On his first trip to havana he put a piece of tape over the hughes 9201 model number and walked his equipment through the airport. So once cuban customs had cleared your equipment through on that very first trip you concluded what from that . That bringing equipment into cuba wasnt that difficult. They had every opportunity to stop me from bringing that equipment in. They knew what that equipment was. And if they didnt, thats you know, shame on them. Reporter in the spring of 2009 he set up two systems at synagogues. But the people he was helping warned him about getting caught. Gross wrote to his supervisors that the project was playing with fire. It was on his third trip that he spotted trouble. I saw a van rolling down the street, and the gentleman was walking next to it with a whip antenna and what looked like a voltage meter. And essentially he was checking for radio transmissions. And he rolled right by the synagogue. Reporter after that gross proposed to u. S. A. I. D. That he add sophisticated equipment that could mask the bgan location. He wrote, discovery of bgan usage would be catastrophic. You recognized the danger at that point. Times . Well, the danger didnt seem so dangerous because i came home and i still had a contract to fulfill. Look, you keep saying you had a contract to fulfill. Thats not all thats going on here. No, thats it. You believed in the work. I do believe that access to information is a right for everyone, but i have never interfered or participated in any kind of political activity overseas. You were bringing free speech to an oppressed people under the nose of a government that did not want that to happen. 3 billion people every day log on to the internet around the world. How could that be circumventing the government . Now, it might sound a little bit naive. So im naive. Mr. Gross, you can tell me that you can call me alan. Alan, you can tell me that you believed in what you were doing, but you cant tell me you didnt know what you were doing. I knew exactly what i was doing. I was setting up Internet Connectivity for the Jewish Community in cuba. It was very simple. Get them connected. That was it. Reporter but it ceased to be simple on his fifth trip, when four men pulled him out of his havana hotel. He was driven to a police station, where a man who seemed to be a doctor ordered him to take a pill he said was a sedative. So i took the pill. He gave me a juice box. And as im drinking the juice box, swallowing the pill, he said, thats it. Thats right. Drink. Drink. And i thought i was in an old Humphrey Bogart movie. And then they took me to a hospital. They took my clothes. They gave me these striped pajamas. You spent the night where . I spent the first night and most of the next five years at the Carlos Finley military hospital. Reporter here in havana gross was held in a room 18 feet by 18 with two other prisoners. Every day for the first year he was interrogated. It was terrible. It was a time of sensory deprivation for me. Especially that first year. The place was infested with ants and roaches. I didnt have any meat really for five years. You lost 100 pounds. Actually, i lost 110 pounds. Reporter this is gross with his lawyer during his imprisonment. He lost five teeth to lack of nutrition. And yet he says he forced himself to walk 10,000 steps a day in circles. It turned out his legal case was on the same path. It was more than a year before he went to trial for subverting the government. I call it the kangaroo court. Reporter his wife, judy, was in the court. The prosecutor went on for over an hour talking about the United States. Never mentioned alans name. He started i think with the eisenhower administration. The United States was on trial, and alan was uncle sam. Absolutely. Absolutely. Reporter the sentence 15 years. My heart sunk. Then i thought, you know, we have to start moving seriously and do everything we can. Reporter judy gross held a rally every tuesday outside cubas unofficial embassy in washington. And she protested at the white house. The worst thing that could happen would be for people to forget his name. Absolutely. Absolutely. And you made sure that didnt happen. And i was afraid that the government had already forgotten his name. Reporter the government that sent alan gross on his mission seemed helpless. Years stretched on. Judy gross lost their home. Unable to make the mortgage. There was a time in this imprisonment that you stopped eating. I decided that i would go on a Hunger Strike to protest both governments lack of leadership and lack of effort to resolve this situation. It was ridiculous. I wasnt a spy. I wasnt a smuggler. I wasnt a criminal. This is absolutely ridiculous. You can see politely wait, wait, wait you cant put it in like that, you have to rinse it first. Whats that, alfredo . No,that can go in.

Theres also dork alicious, adorkable, and dorkify. Ooh, thats my favorite. Thats when i get to draw people in dork diaries style. You dorkify them. And its all a huge hit with their young fans. Can you all guess who it is . This is you. Come on up and get your dorkification. Reporter who see themselves as dorks. A dork is someone who has a lot of life problems. People call me weird, but i think i just youre helping middle school girls. We both thought we were just freaks but turns out there were a lot of kids who feel that way, and if i can help them through my trauma ill do it. Reporter as kids erin and nikki were both bullied by their own real mckenzie, and the books are loosely based on their experiences. This is middle school. So this is the inspiration for dork diaries. We made lemonade out of lemons. Reporter those lems on include the event that convinced rachel to put pen to paper. I was married 25 years, and i went through a divorce, and it was pretty traumatic. I basically lost everything, house, cars. Part of my motivation for wanting to write the book was to try to launch into another career and generate some cash. Reporter and it paid off. Bigtime. So this is the house that dork built. Yes, it is. And sometimes i pinch myself to make sure im not dreaming. Reporter the writing is collaborative, but nikki is trusted with her namesakes image. What do her eyes tell you about her . I think these eyes tell you that she is funny and that she is outgoing and she is also warm. Reporter rachel says she made nikki white simply because thats how she imagined her when she started writing her. Nikkis best friends are africanamerican and latina. All of the books have one big thing in common. You should treat people the way you would want to be treated. Reporter the golden rule. Exactly. And if you are treated poorly or bullied, number one, its not your fault. Number two, seek help from an adult. And number three, do not let it get under your skin because you should always let your inner dork shine through. Reporter in other words, always believe in yourself. ,,, Steve Hartman has an update now to one of the favorite stories he found on the road. Reporter it all began here in raleigh, north carolina. A1. Reporter with a flurry of plastic bombshells. You sunk our battleship reporter a few years ago 11yearold twins carter and jack hansen got really into the game battleship. That got them interested in Naval Warfare in general. Which eventually led to a Family Vacation to see the yorktown, a retired Aircraft Carrier in charleston, south carolina. My mind was just blown. Like bloom. Reporter the kids say the yorktown changed their lives. I just realized how amazing history could be. Reporter and it was about to get even better. On that same trip the boys learned about a world war ii vet named Robert Harding who actually served on the yorktown. They got his email address, started corresponding daily, and became really enamored. The boys now keep his picture by their beds. And if you ever go to the yorktown with them, as we did, theyll chew your ear off about mr. Harding and what he did on board as a plane handler. When the plane was ready to launch hed like go unstrap this and the plane would go flying that direction. Reporter the folks who run the yorktown say a lot of kids love the ship but no kid has ever fallen for a sailor who served here like these two boys have fallen for mr. Harding. Which is why for this trip the yorktown made special arrangements. Okay. Reporter for a surprise visitor. Mr. Harding . Thats right. Reporter hugging an old salt never felt so sweet. Youre a big boy. Reporter it was hard to tell who enjoyed it more. Or who needed it more. Japanese planes i guess i needed somebody to talk to about it. It was surprising the way it worked out. Reporter since we first told this story in april, mr. Harding and the boys have stayed in touch and last month got together again at the yorktown. Long time no see. Reporter this time for an entire weekend. Is this where were sleeping . Yeah. Reporter the boys got to spend the night on the ship. Oh, man.
