Happy to stay here. So is scotland. What a big vote there. In fact, it was a resounding no from voters in scotland this morning. They turned out in record numbers and decided not to break away from the rest of great britain. The outcome is a relief for the british government. Mark phillips is in edinburgh, the scottish capital, where the politicians now face another headache. Good morning. Reporter good morning. Well, the divorce is off, but the marriage may never be the same. A lot of promises were made to keep it in. This vote may not have broken up the United Kingdom but its probably changed it. The big vote was in and the big scare was over. Scotland had voted to stay in the uk, and the no to independence camp were as relieved as they were happy. In the end the vote spread was larger than the nervous lastminute opinion polls had predicted. Through the night the results dribbled in. The prouk side edging narrowly ahead. But the big Population Centers would determine how this vote went. Finally the biggest city, working class glasgow reported, and it went for independence but not strongly enough. The battle was effectively over. The nays had it. Even alex salmon had to admit, his dream of independence was over for now. As scotland has by majority has decided at least at this stage not to become an independent country. Reporter at this stage is the key phrase. He would abide by the decision. But hold them responsible for promises they made to shift more power to scotland. David cameron said it would but the battle was over for now. So there can be no disputes, no reruns, we have heard the settled will of the scottish people. Reporter but with a 55 45 split, theres work to be done on the morning after. Theyve got to make the most of the outcome, come back together and try to improve things. Reporter do you think that will happen . I hope so. Positive. Reporter a 55 45 point spread is a Pretty Healthy one. By referendum standards. A victory for common sense, the winning side said. And, indeed, the pounds are up shares are up and anxiety is down, for now. Norah. All right, mark phillips, thank you. French warplanes launched their first air strike this morning against isis targets in iraq. That follows thursdays u. S. Attack on a Training Camp outside mosul and an isis ammunition stockpile near baghdad. In washington last night the senate went along with the house approving president obamas plan to train and arm Syrian Rebels fighting isis. The president praised the bipartisan show of support. The barbaric murder of two americans, these terrorists thought they could frighten us or intimidate us or cause us to shrink from the world. Today, theyre learning the same hard lessons of petty tyrants and terrorists that have gone before. As american, we do not give in to fear. Bill plante is at the white house where officials still face tough questions about the president s plan. Bill, good morning. Morning and good morning to our viewers in the west. There have been more than 170 u. S. Air strikes in iraq but president obama still doesnt want to call this war. And officials in the administration continue to argue over how to describe this fight and the role that u. S. Service members will play. Testifying on capitol hill secretary of state john kerry again faced repeated questions over whether the u. S. Is at war. A lot of people are debating this idea of what do you call it, do you call it war, dont you call it war. Its not a war like iraq. But if you care about what you care it, it is a war similar to what we did with al qaeda. Scores of heavily armed u. S. Service men are already working alongside iraqi troops. Dense spite the danger. Despite the danger White House Press secretary earnest said they were not in combat. They would not be personally responsible for engaging the enemy in combat. Reporter but he acknowledged that role could change. American military personnel will have the equipment they need to defend themselves. Reporter obama took a more emphatic stance. The American Forces that have been deployed to iraq do not and will not have a combat mission. The motion is agreed to. Reporter crossing a final hurdle senators approve the president s request for authority to train moderate syrian forces. But it didnt come without criticism. Why is it that the president of the United States keeps telling the people that are slaughtering thousands, dont worry, we wont commit Ground Troops . This is a military strategy i believe, designed around political promises. This is not the military strategy you would create to destroy or devastate isil. Its not just members of congress that are not convinced. Some generals are also very skeptical that the no boots policy can hold. Thats likely to come up later this morning when secretary of state kerry chairs a meeting of the u. N. Security council on the situation in iraq. Bill plante thank you very much. Isis is showing a fifth western hostage in a new online video. He is alive. British photo journalist john cantlie sits wearing an orange jump suit.

Huntsman long criminal record includes convictions of grand theft and assault with a deadly weapon. His former neighbor in Pollock Pines says hes a wellknown trouble maker. He was fighting with his kouserkous er en out here and got arrested then too. Reporter facing conditions the firefighters are at work. Planes have dropped more than 450,000 gallons of fire retardant. Were literally setting World Records with respect to retardant drops and use on this fire. Reporter officials call the conditions unprecedented and say the flames are spreading on the ground because of whats in the air, that giant cloud of smoke. The embers that come out of these fires, the smoke column they are lofted and they go way out into the unburned area land and start a fire. Reporter also fueled by extreme heat and drought in the region, the king fire has become the second largest fire in california this year. Fighting it costs about 5 million a day. There is some good news about this fire. The rapid growth that saw it more than triple in size explode significantly yesterday and its movement now is towards the northeast and thats largely into wilderness areas and away from more populated areas.

The flu season is coming u fast and the government is making new recommendations this morning. Cdc director tom friedman rolled up his sleeve for a flu shot. Officials are recommending an ouchless way for kids to get vaccinated. Good morning. This is really important information. What does it is cdc say today . The biggest change theyre making is that now the nasal flumist is recommended for kids between ages 2 and 8. Over the flu shot. Thats the first time thats been done here the nasal mist. Its one spray, each nostril. Thats all you need. Its without a needle ouchless so kids prefer that. They made the change because actually some new research is showing its more effective in that age group. So its a good thing. Your recommendations for seniors as well right . Thats right, until now people over the age of 65 its been recommended they get a shot for pneumonia. That hasnt changed, but the cdc also wants them to get a second shot against thatpneumonia. Both fight the bacteria in different ways. Norah asked, can i get the mist too and not the shot. Its for between the ages of 2 and 50. If youre not pregnant. If you fall out of that range, you get the regular flu shot. We should be getting our flu shots now . Absolutely. Flu season peaks between december and february. Actually it starts in october and goes through may. Last year in my practice we saw a cluster of cases right around halloween. So the shot takes two weeks to kick in. So the sooner you get it the better. Is it ever too late to get the shot . You know, once youve hit march or april, you say, okay well wait until next year. We smo focuslk should all focus on getting it sooner rather than later.

Grandma mary has atrial fibrillation, an irregular heartbeat not caused by a heart valve problem. That puts her at a greater risk of stroke. Rome . Sure before xarelto® mary took warfarin which required monthly trips to get her blood tested. But thats history. Back to the museum . Not this time now that her doctor switched her to onceaday xarelto® mary can leave those monthly trips behind. Domestic flight . Not today like warfarin, xarelto® is proven effective to reduce afibrelated stroke risk. But xarelto® is the first and only onceaday prescription blood thinner for patients with afib not caused by a heart valve problem that doesnt require regular blood monitoring. So mary is free of that monitoring routine. For patients currently well managed on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto® and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. Xarelto® is just one pill a day taken with the evening meal. Spinach . Grazie plus, with no known dietary restrictions mary can eat the Healthy Foods she likes. Dont stop taking xarelto®, rivaroxaban, unless your doctor tells you to. While taking xarelto®, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. Xarelto® may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. Xarelto® can cause serious bleeding and in rare cases, may be fatal. Get help right away if you develop unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. If you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto®, watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle related signs or symptoms. Do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. Tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. Before starting xarelto® tell your doctor about any conditions such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. Switching to xarelto® was the right move for mary. Ask your doctor about onceaday xarelto®. No regular blood monitoring; no known dietary restrictions. For information and savings options download the xarelto® Patient Center app call 1888xarelto, or visit goxarelto. Com in the nation.

Has buckets of money to pour into research. The campaign brought in a fortune. Well look at the charitys new challenge, spending that money wisely. Thats ahead. But, first, this mornings headlines. The arizona republic. Police locked down terminal 4 for three hours last night. They were searching for a shirtless man suspected in a shooting in tempe. Dozens of flights were grounded or canceled. The man and two other suspects were finally arrested. The Orlando Sentinel says a man was arrested after hiding for hours in a wheel well.

Gordo was rushed to the vet with a fractured pelvis. Were happy to tell you this morning hes doing well. The vet says after he recovers he should be able to walk normally. On the season premiere of 60 minutes sunday steve croft takes us inside a multiMillion Dollar tax scam. Con men using stolen data to get money from the irs. For this fraud, all you need is a lab top, someones Social Security number, date of birth, not even their name. They can do it from their kitchen table. They can do it at a fast food chain restaurant. Or they can do it on the beach as long as they haveactually Corey Williams says you dont even need a laptop. You can file phony returns on your cell phone if you have the right app. He used to be a legitimate tax primarier until his boss turned him on to the scram. Scam. Before he was arrested, hed made millions. Anybody who knew about it, youd be a fool to not get involved with making some money. I could wake up in the comfort of my own home and just get on the laptop do about 15 returns a day. 15 times 3,000 is 45,000 a day. So you had a home office. Yeah i used to work in i would work in my boxers. Yeah. Its as easy as one, two, three. Williams gave us a demonstration. One, you collect or buy a list of stolen identities that are readily available in miami if you know the right people. Two, you go to one of dozens of tax preparation sites online and, using the stolen Social Security numbers and dates of birth, you fill out a completely bogus w2 form claiming a modest refund of a few thousand. It has given us a refund of 4,834. Three you tell the irs if you want the refund mailed to your house wired to your bank account or loaded on to a prepaid debit card. You have any idea how many return, how many bogus returns you filled out . It would be like in the thousands. Did the irs pay all of them . On a percentage range, it said they would pay out 40 of the tax returns. Wow. If you have the same questions you do, why is the irs sending billion, of dollars to con men in a scam it apparently cant stop . Youll find out. 60 minutes on cbs. Im fascinated by coreys thinking. Youd be a fool not to take advantage of this. And then he ends up in prison. Some states have new laws targeting photographers who take pictures underneath womens skirts but a Texas Appeals Court, if you can believe this said legislatures there went too far. Appeals ruled on wednesday a law intended to stop voyeurism is unconstitutional. Jan crawford is in washington this morning. Shes also a lawyer so she has the story behind this decision. Jan, were confused does this mean now its okay to take pictures up womens skirts . If so help us understand the courts ruling. First of all, not right not necessarily, gayle, about the first question about whether or not its going to be okay. Theres things that skates can do. What happened here texas didnt do it the right way. They passed a whats called a hidden camera law over a decade ago. It basically prohibits someone from taking an illicit photograph of a person in a public place without their permission. It wasnt specifically about what you were talking about, gayle, up skirting where theyre taking pictures up under your skirt. No one had even heard of that when this law was passed. This is children in their swimsuits at sea world. He argued that the law in texas was just so broad, it was unconstitutional. Because the way it was written, it would ban all kinds of photographs in Public Places and the texas court, we saw, agreed with him. What was the judges reasoning . He said the word used was just breathtaking. Because it can cover this is shocking if you think about it. It could cover almost any photograph in a public place that was taken without the persons consent. So even news photographers who take pictures of say celebrities on public streets, that would have been banned potentially. Thats why you even saw some media groups weighing in against this law as violating the first amendment. I know you say in this particular case you dont think texas did it the right way. Does the ruling have National Implications . This case is only affecting this texas law. But what it is going to do is send a signal to these other states that if they want to ban up skirting, like i think most skirts do, they have to do it the right way, pass new laws that focus on that specific problem. Its that kind of invasive behavior. Someones like zone of privacy. Thats probably not protected by the first amendment. I think youre going to see texas and some of these other states try to rewrite the laws and update them to more directly ban upskirting.

It creates a new challenge for the foundation. Michelle miller looks at using the cash windfall. Good morning. Thats the question. Charity watchers call it impulse giving. 2. 5 million donors gave money to the association after it went viral. Theyre looking at how and where theyll spend all that cash. J. T. Here. Russell stern. Reporter the ice bucket challenge was one of the biggest social media campaigns of all time. It challenged everyone from athletes to actors and even former president s to douse themselves with ice water all for a good cause. Fable saw over 17 million video uploads. Youtube reported a record 1 billion views. Proceeds unexpectedly poured in. No one knew it was going to take place. It grew organically through a family a couple of families who have als. Barbara newhouse the groups president and ceo says most of the money will go to research in hopes of finding a cure to the deadly and debilitated fund. Others will go to care groups and advocacy but some say none of it will be spent until they have organization and strategy. Were ming with various stakeholder groups. From there well come up with plan that will go before our board of trustee october and well then be releasing more information. Thigh really is to be careful. Thats why i think engaging the donors, to people theyre serving in this process is critical to do it right. Ken berger is part of a Watchdog Group that rates fund razing organizations. The Als Association rated a four out of four. Were talking an a charity that has a good rating good reputation. What are you concerned about . Weve seen charities before when they get this influx of cash, its a challenge that is not met by teen best. The red cross rates over a billion dollars but donors were outraged to learn some funds never went to major disaster relief. They were going to park it for other disasters and not use it for 9 11. Donors expectations were different than thatting. It was four times last years revenue. After a fleury of complaints last month they abandon eded calling its bucket challenge. They were trying to avoid skaerms. Its at a whole different level. It was clear that was a very bad decision. Donors want to see results, which is difficult when it comes to science tusk research. Newhouse says the association will kmun kaitz plans and progress reports to its 3 million donors. The group is counting on them to keep giving because als isnt likely to be next Years Charity cause. And, again, they still havent come to where. Where and how. I think theyre still figuring it out. Arent they . They are. They have to have been overwhelmed. Think of it like this most charities are in the 15 Million Dollar range. The amount of money that went into the Als Association put them in the 1 category the very top category of 1 . Not a bad problem to have. Its worth it to have the money spent reporting. Good reporting. Derek jeter love him does not want to leave the field for the last time without saying thank you to the fans.

Make it stop tony. Starting early if. Of course, people are annoyed by it. However, 3 Million People have already watched that k mart commercial on youtube. K mart did a christmas commercial already thats aired. Most of the comments are negative. People say they hate it. Yes, people will go to the stores and they will do the shopping.

Theyre in on the joke. Who is it targeted to older people younger people . Does it even matter . Boomers actually tend to wait to do their shopping. However, millennials, a lot of people are surprised, people who turned 20, you know after the year 2000 theyre very serious about this the early shopping. They sort of get out. They have all of their shopping done sometimes by thanksgiving. Bottom line can you save more by shopping early . No. You actually probably dont save more. Thank you. Thats what gayle and i were saying last week when the sales were on. Its tricky because it depends on how early youre talking about marketers do have those tricks of having a price that, say, 20 bucks and raise it to 40 and lower it to 30 right .

Counting crows has a new album that critics call its best collection of songs since the bands debut. This morning Anthony Mason shows us how the front man has struggles. Counting crows have sold more than 20 million albums. As they released their first album of original material in six years, i sat down with founder and lead singer adam duritz. Ive been hanging around its been more than 20 years since you guys started, which is the number i find a little scary. I dont know about you. It just seems to have gone. I know i lived all those days, but i do not know where they are. The rise of counting kroez was meteoric. The debut album in 1993 august and everything after would sell some 7 million copies in the u. S. Alone. All of a sudden i got mobbed. Did you like that or not . No. No, i was uncomfortable at the time. So how did you make peace with it . I dont know. You know, its like waking up on mars.

Fourth and mcdougal. And theres reason to believe reporter but as the bands success continue duritz found it more and more difficult to repress a secret. He has a serious mental disorder. I had reasons for not talking about it for a long time and i felt like i was really slipping down a drain and i didnt want to be a public spectacle. At one point i got briefly locked up at a Ucla Medical Center and i got in there the same day that mariah carey got out. And, man, they lit her up. Reporter finally, in 2008 in an article in mens health the singer went public. How would you describe what you have . I would describe it as a pain in the ass really. I get the Summertime Blues reporter duritz says its a dissociative disorder that makes the world seem unreal. Its scary stuff to go through. I imagine if you dont know whats happening to you, it must be. You dont at first. It doesnt feel right. It feels like youre taking drugs that youre not taking. It feels like you just woke up with an acid flashback at times, and thats terrifying. I dont think anyone needs to go through that especially without any acid. But youve managed it . Yeah. Well, you dont really get much choice in that. Youre not going to get to tell yourself later on well it was hard. So thats why i didnt manage. Reporter for counting crows new album, the bands songwriter says he was tired of writing about his own life. Im fine living it but i just it didnt seem like a movie i wanted to go see anymore. So you like the movie a little better now . Yeah yeah. Its kind of fun now. Reporter so the songs on somewhere under wonderland are filled with new characters.

Well talk with her about the story thats Getting National attention. Also Catherine Mcphee stars in the new highoctane show. Made a splash first on American Idol talks about switching to drama. That story is ahead. Right now its time to show you some of this mornings headlines from around the globe. South Carolinas Greenville news says they halted a con tro slers shul student questionnaire. It included questions such as how many times have you had sex in the last three months. Students complained about privacy issues. You think . University says the questionnaire was intended to help prevent sexual assaults and discrimination on campus. They need to come up with something else. New york post says a summit of cartoon characters did not go well. Only nine characters showed up for the meeting organized by the police. The purpose was to find a way to keep the peace. Back in july a man dressed as spiderman was arrested for assaulting a Police Officer. The characters routinely accuse police of harassment. Interview be ben affleck.

The resume lists part time jobs such as a golf course. He was taken in the sixth round of the draft and i would say it worked out just fine. Just like you love derek jeter i love tom brady. I know you love tom brady, too. Youve got to love it because everybody puffs up their resume a little bit. He lists what his gpa was. What was his gpa . 3. 3 out of 4. I like it. As a starter at the golf course he says he developed interpersonal skills and exemplifies flexibility in order to better serve. Classic resume words, right . Interpersonal skills. It has worked out okay for mr. Brady. Another vote in scotland this morning is a historic moment for go fllf. For the first time the royal and ancient golf club of st. Andrews is welcoming female members. The club 2500 men voted over whemingly to allow women to join. I think its quite right that the members have agreed to embrace. This comes after welcoming women to the club. Its a great day for the game. Well, the club has faced increasing pressure to open the doors to women. Two years ago Augusta National chose the first female members. Former secretary of state Condoleezza Rice and darla moore. I assume you approve. Its more fun to play golf with men and women, i think. Lets go. Lets go. Like right now . Yeah. Gayle, do you want to take the rest 30 minutes left . No i think youre both going to stay right here. A texas mom started a parenting debate this month blogging about her 6yearold playing outside by himself. She described her shock and anger when police and Child Protective Services came knocking on her door. He was in the familys neighborhood right in austin texas. Good morning. Good morning. He was playing by himself in this open green space one morning last month. Not always within his mothers sight. Their home is the one on the corner right over there just over 100 yards away. But one neighbor made it very clear, she did not believe the child should have been out here alone. Careful. Reporter Kary Anne Roy knows about the joys and challenges of raising a child. She has three of them. Her youngest 6yearold isaac, recently gained the privilege of playing outside alone for a few minutes. I can go from the house to like, right on the top of the hill where the stop sign is. And no more beyond that huh . Yeah nowhere. Reporter but a seemingly well wellintentioned neighbor brought isaac home one day after seeing the boy across the street from a row of homes without supervision. There was a disconnect there i was smiling saying yes, he was outside playing. She said whoa he was outside by himself. I said yes, he was outside by himself playing as 6yearolds do. Reporter but it didnt end there. Soon roy had toot knock on the door. A Police Officer who questioned her but left. A few days later, Child Protective Services also known as cps, arrived and questioned each of her children. Like have you taken drugs or alcohol, have you seen movies of naked people you know has anybody touched you . And they had to investigate, if cps gets a call you want them to check on the welfare of the children. However, i think that when theyre getting these kinds of frivolous calls its wasting resources. Reporter but shouldnt we err on the side of caution when it comes to children . I think that when it comes to children you have to give them the experience of life. Its doing them a disservice if we keep them trapped in the house until theyre 16 and then, you know theyre off in high school. Reporter Diane Debrovner says this is a debate largely fueled by fears, like kidnapping by a stranger which statistically is very low. We wish that we could let our Children Play more but everybody is more worried about safety. And i think that this case raises some thorny issues for parents about how much authority you have over making decisions for your own child and where the boundaries are for neighbors stepping in and making judgments about your parenting. Reporter in late june a South Carolina mother was arrested for allegedly leaving her 9yearold daughter at a park for hours while she worked at a fast food restaurant. Roys case never got to that level. The worse part for her was the children feeling they had done something wrong and fearing being taken away by authorities. If youre a parent and youre not comfortable with your kid being outside without your eyes on them totally cool. Im not going to tell you you cant do that. Just please dont tell me what i can do with my child and i think everyone can get along. You know . Texas law does not specify how old a child must be before they are allowed to be outside by themselves. Both Austin Police and Child Protective Services closed the roy case with no charges. Jeff . Manualel thank you very much. I think im with mrs. Roy, i think parents of little kids what do you think . She knows her neighborhood. She knows her son. She feels comfortable letting him play out there. 6 is young. Suburbs, too . Generational differences, too. And the house was here and little park was over there. Yeah. You want to say thank you, neighbor. Yeah, right. Or not. How is that neighborhood picnic these days . Thank you. Coming up she hit it big on American Idol but Catherine Mcphee said instant stardom was tough to the new cbs drama sporp i dont know is inspired by a true story that follows a team of geniuses who use their intelligence to help the government solve hightech threats. American idol alum Catherine Mcphee. Im happy to report security. Im going to rotate your cameras to point at the monitors. Ill walk you through each step. Scorpion is based on a computer whiz with an i qurks of 197, the fourth highest ever recorded. He and his team of brilliant misfits work with the feds to save the day. Something wrong . Its top secret. Catherine mcphee plays a tough waitress and the mom of 59yearold she believes is mentally challenged. Do you know what sheer doing . Turns out, he is a genius too. Hes playing chess with the grand master. Do you see this . I was catherine on sunday and at monday morning i was at costume shooting and fitting on monday morning. Wow. Yeah. Oh, my gosh. Oh, my god. When you read the script what attracted you to this show . Going from a show where i was sing pg anding and dancing and action sequences where youre doing green screen stuff. Thats a nice change. Reporter her last show was nbcs smash which did not live up to its name. It was canceled after two seasons. A tough blow for mcphee, who if she had it her way, would sing all day. Even my parents need to tell me when we go skiing ill will be going down the mountain i will be singing myself its a way to calm myself. So i think that the singing is like something thats just with me everywhere i go. Reporter mcphee was just 21 when America First heard her voice on American Idol. Her fans called themselves the cat pack and consumed with mcfever. Thats not how it quite felt for her. I was just trying to survive. There was no real strategy for me. I just i was just trying to make it through each day. Reporter she was runnerup to season five winner taylor hicks. You likely wont see a musical number on scorpion but that hasnt silenced this singer. Is there a preference acting versus singing for you or are they both equal loves . I think everyone on this set would vouch for me that i never stop singing. I dont do it to try and be obnoxious or look at me. Like all kinds of stuff. Its out of control. Really. I need to tone it down. Reporter but her tone is what took her to hollywood. Although mcphee grew up just a few miles away in the San Fernando Valley where she was the star of her high school musicals. Since her idol days mcphee has experiment wed new looks and is recording new music. Its the first time i ever made music that i wrote. Yeah. But for now shes taking her new tv show for a ride and hopes this road is long. Im hoping this one lasts a while. This one takes . Yeah. Its just such a it feels good. Reporter for cbs this morning, ben tracy, los angeles. Were with katherine, we hope it lasts a while too. I like her and like her music.
