"dear mr. president, first i would like to introduce my sell. i am elvis presley." the rock idol went on to offer his services as, quote, federal agent at large, in the war against drugs. as proof of his qualifications he added "i have done an in-depth study of drug abuse and communist brainwashing techniques." in a memo white house aide dwight chapin recommended the meeting to chief of staff h.r. haldeman. he was one of the bright young people the president ought to meet. you m be kidding, haldeman appears to have written in the margin. but he approved the meeting anyway. the president and presley met in a brief session captured in series of still photographs. the infamous secret white house taping system had yet to be installed, so there was no audio record. however, the white house

years ago. when one day's worth of lamp oil lasted eight in the just liberated great temple of jerusalem. hanukkah means music and prayers, latkes and jelly donuts and of course, hanukkah means, the dreidel. >> the word dreidel comes from the yiddish or german, to drei means to turn, to spin around. >> the four-sided spinning top is inscribed with the hebrew letters nun, gimmel, hey and shin. forming an acronym meaning, a great miracle happened there. the dreidel and its letters have a very different meaning for kids today. >> so we each have a number of gelts or pennies or whatever. >> you spin it and depending on what you land on, if you land on nun you get nothing. >> i like to watch how the dreidel spins. >> i like getting chocolates ♪ >> but beyond the fun and games this simple top has serious place in jewish history. legend has it that the dreidel was used as a ploy during the days when greeks ruled the holy land and students were foragedden from studying their religion. >> the guard came in the children knew they were to put away the manuscripts and they took out the tops. the guards said, what's going on here? where's all the studying? we're not studying, we're playing. the tops were part of the miraculous happening that led to hanukkah. >> rabbi eliyahu safran knows a thing or two about dreidels. he owns more than a thousand. >> who do you think cleans

>> eric pavony is one of the foremost dreidel players. he's the founder of major league dreidel. seriously. it's a dreidel club pavony started seven years ago at a family hanukkah party when he noticed that no one was playing. >> i said, that's a shame. i think because most people consider the actual game, traditional game to be a little bit boring. so i added a competitive, more adult spin on the game and we got spinning. >> talk about a spin zone. major league dreidel has hosted tournamentments in miami, washington, d.c. and other major cities. players names matter as much as their spinning skills. >> andreidel the giant, spinny the pooh, spinderella, spindiana jones, goy toy. goy wonder. can i say that on cbs? one of the great things about major league dreidel is that you don't have to be jewish to spin. >> the e all right! we got a live one here. all right! oh, my, god, that is what we call a gimmel, an eight point spot. that beat my spinny dip. >> thank you very much. >> good teacher. >> a miracle did happen. for the rabbi the dreidel is not the only reason he holds hanukkah dear. he met his wife clary who he calls the light of his life during the festival of lights 13 years ago. which brings us full circle. >> so is your collection of dreidels a representation of your love for her? >> absolutely. >> when you hold the dreidel, what does it mean to you? >> it means to me that every single moment, every single breath of air that we can breathe during the lifetime, there are miracles happening around us. little ones, medium-sized ones and real big ones. and

this because we want to do it. we're not going to make any money. >> are you making money? >> a tiny bit. >> right now money does seem to be taking a back seat to flay's obsession with wowing his customers. the night we were there he put together this massive seafood dish as a kind of warm up for his cross mass eve "feast of the seven fishes" then he served it to his bar patrons for free. >> you can call it obsession. to me it's my job and my work, thing i love to do. way more than television. no offense. >> do you think that some people didn't see you or don't see you as legitimate chef because you're on tv. >> it's easy for people to discount you because you're on television. i don't know why that takes your skill away. i understand it. >> does it bug you? >> it used to bug me a

>> you're going down, bobby flay: >> it's go time. >> but before he was a household name, you might say bobby flay's toughest enemy was himself. born in manhattan in 1964, robert william flay showed an early interest in cooking and not much else. except killing time with his pals on new york city street corner. >> that's what kids did then in new york. we hung out. atopies saw. got in fights. played some video games. we got chased by the cops because our boom boxes were too loud. >> he flunked out of a series of new york catholic schools, some more than once. >> were you bored? were you angry? you know what i mean? were you like the angry young man who just didn't have time for school? >> not really. >> nothing to be angry about really. >> maybe i was boredded. i guess i was. i wasn't interested at all. >> he did manage to show up here on a regular basis, mimi's pizza on new york's upper east side where he got a job as a delivery boy at age 12. you told people that you graduated from ucla. >> university of the corner of lexington avenue. it's right here. >> truth is he quit high school and his father made him get a job doing grunt kitchen work at another restaurant. but instead of scaring him back to school, that little restaurant job changed his life forever. >> i remember waking up in the morning, laying in my bed, staring at the ceiling saying to myself, i can't wait to go to work today. it hit me. >> what was it? >> i was working with my hands. i was creating things. i could actually -- i could actually do it. i didn't have to open a book. i was learning in a practical manner. >> excited and inspired, bobby flay went on to cooking school, graduating from new york's french culinary institute in 1984. seven years later he had a new york city place of his own, mesa grill. he was all of 25 years old. >> let me ask you this, did cooking save you? >> totally. cooking definitely saved my life. >> saved your life. >> yeah. i think so. i could have easily gone down bad road. >> like what? >> what was i going to do. where were my skilled. >> you would have turned to a life of crime? >> i'm not going to say that. but lot of my friends did. i took a different path. >> it worked out. mesa was a huge success and bobby flay now has 24 restaurants to his name. life outside the kitchen's pretty good, too. for the past ten years he's been married to actress stephanie march and he has a daughter sophie from a previous marriage who is now a college freshman. >> i got the greatest thing ever. i got sophie, who's -- happily surpassed me in the educational world. >> but there are times when it seemed he may have stretched himself too thin. in 2008 a "new york times" reviewer wonders if he'd taken his eye off mesa grill took away one of the restaurant's two stars. >> do you remember it clearly? >> yeah. i was in a taxi i found out that he was taking a star from me. >> somebody called and told you? >> uh-huh. and it was a long day. i got really drunk that night. >> still, mesa grill survived and flourished. right up until the rent got too high and flay was forced to close it down last year. the same thing happened with another place, bolo, which left him with a hole in his soul that only new restaurant could fill. and that was gato. >> no extra garnish or anything. don't forget, friendliest restaurant in new york. >> right after gato opened "new york times" restaurant critic came calling again. this time the review was glowing. so what did that feel like in your gut to read that? >> it was an amazing -- just -- i could finally exhale. >> anyone who has tasted his food knows he's not afraid to spice it up but bobby flay also knows how to savor the sweet. it's the holiday time. time people are counting their blessing, do you do that sort of thing? >> you know, i feel blessed and lucky every single day. my father always said to me, think of the word content. if you can feel like you're content most of the time, everything is good. >> are you content? >> 100% content. plus a little more. >> osgood: just ahead. how sweet it is. ♪ it's written on my face ♪ we're singin', we're singin' ♪ i found a happy place ♪

come to the symbol of the season? the tale it seems has as many twists as those tasty stripes, and as it turns out, most are the stuff of legend. one popular story says a choir master in the 17th century germany gave candy sticks to quiet now see children during christmas services. he fashioned a hook on one end to symbolize a shepard's staff, acknowledging all who watched over their flock, is that night. here in the united states, a candy maker in indiana is said to have bent one end of the sugar stick to form a j for jesus. and man named august imgard has been hailed as first to decorate his hole day tree with candy canes. one thing we do know is that the mass production of candy canes is inherently american. it was candyman bob mccore mac who cornered the market in the 1920s by turning out hand-made candy canes by the thousands at his factory in albany, georgia. bob's candies soon became number one candy cane maker by volume in the world. but with at least a 20% breakage rate, candy cane making proved to be a sticky business. that's when bob's brother-in-law, gregory harding keller, a catholic priest stepped in. with an invention that came to be known as the keller machine, automation increased production from thousands to millions per day. >> one of the machines he invented produces -- >> it was such a hit he even appeared on the tv show "what's my line?" the keller machine may not enlighten us on the actual origins of the holiday treat but it has insured that the candy cane along with its signature hook would delight children and grownups for generations to come. divine intervention, indeed. next, the story too good to be true. which means it's timeson for the volkswagen sign-then-drive event. for practically just your signature, you could drive home

peace on earth came through 100 years ago this week. mark phillips has the story of the christmas truce of 1914. >> merry christmas. >> the old line about never letting the facts get in the way of good story could have been invented for this screen. the facts are as slippery as the field and the story is so good it's still being told, even embellished, a hundred years later. it's the story of the world war i christmas truce of 1914, when groups of german and british soldiers briefly stopped shooting at each other and met and mingled in the no man's land between their lines, before going back to shooting at each other. on the hundredth anniversary of the encounter has been restaged as one of the places along the old front line in belgium where the truce originally occurred. the men, the story goes, not only exchanged gifts and greetings they organized a soccer game between teams from the two armies. boots and balls instead of bullets and bayonets. >> it's christmas. goodwill. let's just be friends for the day. >> and chris barker, whose three great uncles were killed in the war not far from here says the truce should be remembered because it shows a different side to a war more known for wholesale slaughter than humanitarian gesture. >> i think it just shows the good in people that can be there. where as days before and afterwards it was savage, but people can suddenly lay down their differences. >> the truce is now seen as a triumph of the human spirit, an interlude of reason in the madness of war. it may have happened because the full madness of this war hadn't happened yet. this was christmas 1914, just a few months after the outbreak of hostilities. a lot of these perhaps were green, not yet bloodied by the horrors to come. at the imperial war museum in london historians like allan wakefield say the bitterness and hatred has not yet taken hold. >> between 1915 like poison gas comes along, air ships are bombing london, germans sink the liner. actually created those sort of hatreds between the two forces. >> there are varying accounts of what happened here in the trenches along the front lines, some diaries say they heard calling from across no man's land saying basically, if you don't shoot, we won't either. it's unclear who stuck their heads up first, the british or the germans, but before long the troops were flooding out of the trenches on both sides of the line and moving through the wire into no man's land. pretty soon a ball appeared. the ball has become the symbol of the truce. it has pride of place on a new memorial in the old paddle field. it's kicked around and recommend radiotive school boy games with kids in appropriate uniform and just about appropriate age. and with the suitably bilingual version of silent night, just as it was sung by the opposing armies a hundred years ago, teams from the modern british and german armies squared off in what was called, the game of truce. the idea is so deeply ingrained in the collective memory, it's been made into a feel-good christmas ad for a supermarket chain. only one thing wrong, it's probably not true. a british-german soccer game, likely never happened. back at the war museum they have combed through the pictures and the diaries and the letters and found, not much. hearsay. not a single firsthand witness. >> if it happened, there's very few collaborative accounts, there's accounts, second, third-hand accounts of somebody hearing of a game going on somewhere. >> whether or not or not an actual soccer game took place here is matter of historic debate. but almost doesn't matter, the game has become part of war-time mythology, if people think it happened it happened. and there's one other outstanding question. the score. >> there's no report on who won. the war, yes. the game, no. >> actually there are couple of reports which are uncorroborated but said that it was 3-2 to the germans. probably on penalties. >> again, why let the facts get in the way? >> osgood: ahead. you think you have a long commute? >> osgood: christmas means one day break for most commuters. particularly welcome the fellow that steve hartman has been tracking. >> just outside richmond, virginia, at the end of this cul-de-sac we met the ultimate family man. of course, we all love our families and typically our extended families, too. but not many of us would make the kind of sacrifice thurmond alford has made to stay near his family. >> it's all about family. if you don't have family what are you going to do? >> about 12 years ago thurmond was offered his dream job. it paid three times what he was making. there was no question, he had to take it. even though everyone he loved was in richmond and job was in washington, d.c. and so began what has now become one of the longest daily commutes in america. >> every two weeks i was changing oil. the guy at jiffy lube. >> he knew you? >> my first name. my football team. you are here every two weeks. like getting my hair cut with him. he was changing the oil in my car. >> that's how long this commute is. it begins every weekday at 4:00 a.m. he drives 80 miles to a parking lot outside fredricksburg, which is still no where near dc. >> we're not there yet, no. >> from here he grabs ride with someone else. an hour later he's at another parking lot in arlington. which is still not dc. he then takes a train two, trains actually, to downtown washington. >> doors opening. >> by 7:0 he's finally to his program manager job at the department of justice. to get here he has passed through three major cities, forged three large rivers, and crossed nine different counties. round trip that's 220 miles in seven hours. if you calculate since he started in '02 basically like commuting around

chapter for sure. >> she was just 21 when she won her first major film roles in 2003 playing daniel craig's girlfriend in "layer cake" and then one of jude law's flings in "alfie." >> i love english. >> the chemistry between the costars was real. a romance blossomed on the set and law and miller quickly became the paparazzi's favorite couple. >> you were pretty young when your private life basically became your public life. >> yeah. >> how did you cope with that? >> you know, i think everyone has been a resilient person. it coincided with an exciting time. i was falling in love with someone and it was great. >> their love affair became a soap opera when law was caught cheating with his children's baby-sitter and miller broke off their engagement. she was hounded by photographers everywhere she went. what was the cost to you of all that? >> i think it was incredibly damaging in terms of my career. i think it's very hard to be considered a serious actor if you have that level of paparazzi or attention. public attention. >> do you think it cost you roles? >> i do, yeah. i understand why. it became inelegant. it became completely out of control. it was a daily -- i was sick to death of me. >> but the paparazzi weren't. and intimate details of miller's life began turning up in the tabloid "news of the world." you were suspecting your friends, your family. >> of course. because it felt ridiculous to think, well, someone's hacking my phone. >> then it broke that the newspaper owned by rupert murdoch's newspaper has been routinely hacking in to the cell phones of celebrities, politicians and members of the royal family. miller demanded to see the evidence from the police. >> i got four huge boxes of handwritten notes, of passwords and pin numbers and e-mail access codes. and my friends' pin numbers, just i saw the depth of information that they had. private information. >> must have been incredibly unsettling to go through that box? >> it was. >> the actress decided to file suit against murdoch's newspaper. hugh grant, who was also hacked called her the real hero and first one out wrenches walking towards the machine guns. >> he said something really dramatic. what was it? first one out of the trenches. i loved that. >> was that scary taking them on? >> it was really scary. i realized quite early on that this was decision that i had to make. so i could have been paid off and silenced. and i think that was happening a lot. >> why didn't you just take the money and shut up? >> because it wasn't about the money. it was about -- because that would have been immoral for me. >> immoral? >> yeah. >> the case culminated in an inquiry. >> that the evidence i shall give -- >> you testified. >> yes. >> at the hearing. >> the day after i found out i was pregnant. i was so ill during that inquiry with morning sickness, i was green. i feel terrible that i would even consider accusing people of betraying me like that, especially people who i know would rather die than betray me. seemed so paranoid to assume that your house is bugged or being listened to somehow. it just seemed so extreme considering that i changed my number so many times i couldn't think of an alternative. >> in the end, miller would win a 160,000 dollars judgment. the news of the world was shut down. rupert murdoch's son james, the chairman of news international, was forced to resign. >> but it was, you know, goliath. and i'm really -- i do feel huge sense of personal pride in making that decision and sticking to it. and winning. >> it's been about 15 years since you were -- >> was it? >> no. miller who took her first acting classes here at the lee strasberg institute in new york has returned to acting with a passion. >> always want to be a soldier? >> yeah. no, i wanted to be a cowboy. i thought i was meant for something more. >> she took a year off after the birth of her daughter with her fee sauna actor tom sturridge in 2012. but she's a cover girl again and in the new issue of "vogue" 2-year-old marlowe makes a discrete appearance. >> your daughter travels with you? >> yeah. >> she's in the hotel now. >> she's having a nap. >> how is it managing that? >> she's really good at being a gypsy now. she's used to it. >> her mother's daughter. >> exact glee do you feel like you're a different actress because you're a mother nowu in any way? >> i think it's a lot easier to cry than it used to be. i think parenthood and sleep deprivation contribute to a huge well of emotion. >> sienna miller is starting that new chapter without trying to rewrite the last one. >> i mean, i feel like we're making this all bad. i had a blast. i had an absolute riot. i mean murdoch or no murdoch nothing got in my way. >> osgood: just

interview" our contributors have very different views as well. to begin with film critic david edelstein. >> in the last few days we've been reminded of film makers who stuck it to foreign leaders. charlie chaplin's "the great dictator" turned hitler in to a clown. the south park guys made saddam hussein satan's gay lover. >> i don't know about -- n 2004 they even went after kim jung un's dad in outrageously racist "team america: world police" which i adored. but ten years north korea probably didn't have a hacking program and even the south park guys got censored tried to represent the prophet muhammad in episode of the show, a muslim no-no. after threats of violence, comedy central blocked the face. sony also had an economic incentive to eat the cost of the "interview" asia is now the source of hollywood's greatest prove its and the chinese are fond of north korea. plus this american audiences were scared to go to the multi-plex over the holidays, there goes some of the year's biggest prove its. look, i know it's easy for me to gas on about principles when lives might, might have been at stake. but there's going to be a chilling effect on movies. already a production company cancelled steve carell film with a north korean connection. good luck going after the chinese or the russian, or even our own leaders if american groups make threats. would-be studio
