All we know is we go 30 years in the future and theres something called a hover board. Ill take something thats 85 familiar, it could be a shape, could be a color, could be a pattern, and then if im projecting it in the future throw something thats just a little 15 twist. Ah reporter today companies are still testing how to make a reliable working hover board for the general public. On the real streets of 2015, though, toys like this swagway gliding around. Whoa. There was a lot of predictions we made. We thought maybe that will come true, that has a good chance. Hover boards, no, we never thought and the fact they said life imitates art.

Marlie hall reports for sunday morning. Reporter the atlantics coral reefs bustle with marine life. Natural paradises filled with creatures of all colors, shapes, and sizes. Including the lion fish. But this species is far from its native habitat. In fact, its a sign of troubled waters. The lion fish is a beautiful, wonderful ornate reef fish. Its native to the indopacific ocean. And now in these oceans we have lion fish which dont belong swimming all over our reef areas. Reporter from scales to tails, vlad akin studies lion fish for the reef Environmental Education foundation. How did they get here . Well, theyre super popular in aquariums. And just like we see with other things, people sometimes set their pets free. Reporter and soon a few abandoned pets started multiplying. A single lion fish can produce 2 million eggs a year. And with no natural predator in the atlantic theres plenty of this fish in the sea. Year after year their numbers keep growing and growing. Lion fish are always on the hunt for their next meal. Find. Many of them the young of fish we eat like grouper and snapper. We could see extinctions of species. We could see reductions in populations of species we rely on economically. And those are worst Case Scenarios. You guys are moving a lot of lion fish from these surrounding waters. Im a best Case Scenario kind of guy and i see were engaging a lot of people right now. Its a great event. Reporter thats mainly through what akins calls derbies. I think we should hand out some award money and prizes. Reporter competitions across divers to kill as many lion fish as they can. The goal is to leave no lion fish behind. For a better look at a derby near ft. Lauderdale. Back. Reporter we went underwater with project baseline. Prepare to dive. Reporter its a Nonprofit Organization thats documenting the condition of the worlds oceans. Nemo reporting. My life support systems are okay, and my vents are secured. Reporter cofounder Robert Carmichael took us to a shipwreck 120 feet down, where lion fish like to feed. Here they are. Oh, yeah. Okay. Maybe we can snag that lion fish over there. Reporter lion fish cant be baited, trapped, or trawled. So the derbys scuba divers must spear them one by one, exercising patience and caution to avoid their venomous spines, to prevent painful though not deadly stings they place the a zookeeper. Is it scary, do you think, for the divers to come face to face with the lion fish . They dont really attack you. Its just the only risk you really run is if you mishandle the lion fish. Reporter which is exactly what happened to diver patrick peacock. You got stung today. I did. I wasnt careful. He came free and he poked me, and i had to end the dive. Reporter what did it feel like . It feels like a wasp times ten. The venom is contained in the entire length of the spine. Reporter but cut off those spines, as they did at the derby. And you can handle it just like any other fish. Reporter and lion fish go from malicious to delicious. A little bit of celery. Reporter really. Lion fish ceviche, anyone . Its good. Reporter some of that days catch was sent here, to normans key, a caribbean restaurant in new york city. Since lion fish must be killed one at a time, its expense i. And this is one of the few restaurants serving it. Were not making any money on the fish. Thats for sure. Reporter owner Ryan Chadwick sells the fish for around 26 a plate. Less than what it costs. Its more about helping the ecosystem and doing something different. So this is not about money for you. Not this, no. Reporter and as for the taste its a light flaky buttery fish. This version is actually the jerk lion fish. So youll have a little heat, a little spice. And this is me spearing a lion fish. Yes. With a fork. With the fish on a plate. Thats right. Okay. Oh, wow. That is really good. What do you think . I love it. Its actually very similar to snapper. Reporter which makes lad akins hope that maybe we can eat our way out of this problem. I think we have a lot of examples of eating through fish stocks. Heres a fish that needs to be controlled. And if we can provide a culinary value, i think we can impact the lion fish population just through removal for consumption. That sounds pretty good to me. Its a winwin for everybody. Except the lion fish. Reporter if you bring your wallet and a sense of adventure. Bon appetit. Enjoy. The cbs overnight news will be right back. Embarrassed by a prostate exam .

Three teenagers in new york Face Criminal Charges over an alleged cyber attack on their school. The students are accused of hacking into School District computers, changing grades, and even class schedules. Anna werner reports. Reporter the original attack was three months ago. It led investigators to the house of the teen they call the mastermind behind the scheme. Its a story that seems fit for a hollywood screenplay, but its pardon me. Its no joke that three 17yearold students are facing serious time in prison. Walking out of a long island courtroom tuesday, 17yearold daniel soares. Police say he was the ringleader behind the brazen cyber attack. His alleged accomplices, alex muscara and eric vaisman covered their faces as they were released on their own recognizance recognizance. The three teens are accuse of hacking into their schools computers and changing grades and schedules. At this point we believe daniel changed at left one of his own grades and one of eric vaismans grade. His grade was changed from 49 to a perfect score of 100. Reporter police say soares broke into comack high school after school hours and installed a device known as as a key log to a school computer. It enabled him to collect logins and password credentials while operating remotely from his home. Its a piece of hardware that you can put on a computer, interfaces with the keyboard and it records every stroke of the keyboard. Reporter School Officials called police in july after raeldsing the class schedules of about 300 students had been changed without authorization. Their investigators led them to soares, who disappeared for about a week before Police Located him. Were waiting for a full investigation to be done and he maintains his innocence. What are you doing . Dialing into the schools computer. Reporter its reminiscent of the 1983 film war games that featured another high schoolaged hacker, matthew broderick. But this reallife case has muscara and vaisman are facing up to four years in prison. If convicted soares could see up to 11 years. All three students are facing computer tampering charges. Soares is also facing charges of burglary and identity theft. Now, in a statement the commack School District says its reviewing its Network Security protocols to prevent Something Like this from happening again. And thats the overnight news for this thursday. For some of you the news continues. For others check back with us a little later for the morning news and cbs this morning. York city, im don dahler. Joe biden shakes up the race. Unfortunately, i believe were out of time. Also tonight, remnants of Americas Nuclear past. The Health Effects from radioactive contamination at dozens of sites. Baby boomers are forced to put off retirement. Right now all im looking at is working and making money. And a big change on sesame street. A very special new kid moves into the neighborhood. We all are amazing announcer this is the cbs overnight news. Joseph r. Biden jr. Stepped into the rose garden, laid out a platform, and then gracefully stepped off, bringing to an end his ambitions of becoming president and a nearly 50year with president obama at his side, the Vice President announced he will not make a third run for the democratic nomination in what would have been an uphill battle against Hillary Clinton. Major garrett broke this story and he begins our coverage. I believe were out of time. The time necessary to mount a Winning Campaign for the nomination. But while i will not be a candidate, i will not be silent. Reporter joe biden stood with president obama and said the democratic nominees should stand on their accomplishments. Democrats should not only defend this record and protect this record. They should runon the record. Reporter but mostly biden framed an agenda for a campaign that was not to be. We cannot sustain the current levels of inequality that exist in this country. I believe the huge sums of unlimited and often secret money pouring into our politics is a fundamental threat to our democracy. Reporter he also made a plea for bipartisanship and took a veiled swipe at Hillary Clinton after she half jokingly called republicans her enemies during this months president ial debate. I dont think we should look at republicans as our enemies. Theyre our opposition. Theyre not our enemies. And for the sake of the country we have to work together. Four more years of this kind of pitched battle may be more than this country can take. Reporter after losing his son beau to brain cancer earlier this year bidens decision on whether to enter the race hinged largely on his familys emotional readiness for a campaign. Today he called for an ambitious assault on the disease that claimed his son. If i could be anything, i would have wanted to be the president that ended cancer. Because its possible. Its personal. But i know we can do this. Reporter biden, ever cheerful and resilient, ended with a note of optimism that wondering what might have been. Its about equality. Its about fairness. Its about respect. As my dad used to say, its about affording every Single Person dignity. Its not complicated. We can do this. And when we do, america wont just win the future. We will own the finish line. Reporter despite president obamas affection and respect for biden, he had grown restless with the Vice President s prolonged president ial deliberations. And scott, mr. Obama was more than mildly pleased to see the speculation and the distractions that came with it laid to rest. Major garrett at the white house. Major, thanks. Now lets bring in john dickerson, our cbs news political director and anchor of face the nation. John, what struck you about the Vice President s statement . Well, you know, at one point in his remarks he thanked the reporters whod been covering his deliberation process and then he quickly added and covered my whole career. It was a subtle acknowledgment of a larger point, which was that biden wasnt just putting an end to this president ial process, he was marking whats likely to be the end of his career in washington. It started in the early 70s. And as if to harken back to that he made that pitch that major talked about for bipartisanship with republicans. It would have been interesting to see if he could have campaigned on that. Because that is not the mood of his party right now. Now, tomorrows a big day. Hillary clinton will be testifying before congress on the attack on the u. S. Compound in benghazi, libya and no doubt asked questions about her private email server. What are the stakes for her . Reporter well, you know, she had a lot of big hurdles to clear in october and there were those she could control and those she couldnt. The debate was one hurdle and shes cleared that. Joe bidens possible candidacy was another hurdle which has now been cleared away for her. So tomorrow is really the last big test for her in october. Can she weather a full days worth of testimony in front of a committee that even some republicans have said is aiming to hurt her politically . If she can do that, she will be on stable ground after what was a pretty shaky summer. And well be watching face the nation on sunday. John, thanks very much. Were about to find out if one man can unite republicans in congress. Many in the house are begging congressman paul ryan of wisconsin to be the new speaker, and last night the reluctant ryan said he would do it but only if all the factions support him. Ryan was the gops 2012 candidate for Vice President. Hes an expert on the budget and chairs the ways and means committee, which writes tax policy. Will his ultimatum work . Heres nancy cordes. Reporter paul ryan spent the day meeting with conservatives who didnt know quite what to make of his take it or leave it approach. There were a list of some pretty strong demands. It kind of reversed the psychology on us a little bit. Reporter ryan says he will only run for speaker if all the wings of the fractured republican conference endorse him by friday and if hardliners agree not to constantly threaten his speakership as they did john we have become the problem. If my colleagues entrust me to become the solution. Labrador didnt like the sound of that. It appears that hes asking for more power to be in the reporter even this condition met with some resistance. I cannot and i will not give up my family time. Reporter congressman Tim Huelskamp of kansas. What did you think of his request to spend most weekends with his family . I dont think the speakership is a 9 to 5 job. Ive got family. Thats why im not running for speaker or any other position like that. Youve got to work on the weekends. Reporter ryan should be a conservatives dream speaker. Hes pushed for deep cuts in food stamps, housing assistance, and proposed converting medicare into a voucher program. We want to have real fiscal control. Reporter most republicans say theyll back him. Speaker boehner signaled today ryans the only viable option. Whats plan b if he doesnt decide to jump in on friday . Dont know. Reporter dont know. Ryans hardball approach may not be sitting well with some of the hardliners, but it is the kind of Strategic Thinking theyve been saying they want in a speaker. And its all in their hands now, scott, because ryan will not be able to get the 218 votes he would need on the house floor next thursday unless at least some of them support him. And ryan has also worked effectively with democrats. Nancy cordes on capitol hill. Nancy, thank you. The cbs overnight news will be right back.

Another politician who wants things on his own terms is russian president Vladimir Putin, who has now gone to war to save syrian dictator bashar al assad. Last night assad showed up unexpectedly in moscow, the first time hes left home since a rebellion broke out four years ago. Mark phillips now on putins game plan. Reporter this was a lot more than just a courtesy dropby between old friends. It was a thanks for everything, and i mean everything dropby. Vladimir putins jets are now effectively Bashar Al Assads air force. That may explain the smile. And that air force was in action during the meeting. The russians say they hit 83 targets over the past day, including these two strikes on what moscow claims were a rebel logistics camp. Theres no longer any pretense of only hitting isis targets. Most russian attacks have been on assads other enemies, including rebels supported by the u. S. And the airstrikes have another purpose theyre bombing russia back to being a major player in the middle east. Vladimir putin is now running the diplomatic show as well, telling assad the bombing must be followed by peace talks. And putins been working the phones. He called turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan after the meeting, and he called another major player, king salman of saudi arabia, as well. The welcome afforded assad in moscow, including a gilded kremlin dinner, was clearly designed to show russias unwavering support for him. In the west the syrian president may be irreparably damaged goods, who the u. S. And others say must go, but hes still and scott, the clearest sign that Vladimir Putin has his own agenda and is now a powerful independent actor on the syrian issue no one in the u. S. Government had a clue about the assad moscow visit until after it happened. Mark phillips in our london newsroom. Mark, thank you. We noticed a study today by the World Health Organization that said that longterm exposure to radiation, even at low levels, can dramatically increase the risk of dying from cancer. Last night we told you about a high number of rare cancers near an old storage site in missouri. Tonight vinita nair tells us about dozens of similar storage sites around the country. You miss that child. Reporter Carl Chappell lost his 44yearold son steven to appendix cancer three months ago. We talked with him and six of his neighbors, all of whom either had cancer or lost a parent or child to it. They all grew up here in north county, st. Louis where Radioactive Material left over from Americas NuclearWeapons Program was stored. Thousands of dirty barrels near a creek that ran alongside their playgrounds and back yards. Using social media, the neighbors say they have documented more than 2,700 cases of cancer, autoimmune disorders, and brain and thyroid tumors in their area. Mary oscko has stage 4 lung cancer. Theyre not statistics and theyre not numbers. They were my neighbors. Reporter currently the army corps of engineers lists 24 other sites in 10 states with lowlevel radioactive contamination that they are in the process of cleaning up. There are three other sites with lowlevel contamination under consideration for cleanup. This former chemical Processing Plant in queens, new york is one of them. Radiation barriers were installed as a bandaid solution in 2013. Michael feldmann with the army corps of engineers says the cleanup moves slowly for a reason. In general, there are things that we need to do at the pace that we are performing in order to make sure that we are protecting the health and environment of the area. Reporter dr. Faisal khan is the director of Public Health in st. Louis county. Some disasters unfold slowly over time and their true nature and extent and severity only becomes clear in terms of human cost once you start counting people around you. Reporter to keep count these neighbors keep a list. The landises, the dubells, shirley shank died of breast cancer. Theres 21 people on this list. And they were all on the same street . Right. On palm drive. Reporter all of the residents in north st. Louis with Health Issues told us they believe they had longterm exposure to the lowlevel contamination. This type of prolonged exposure has rarely been studied. Scott, we are going to continue to follow this story. Vinita, thank you very much. Something that surprised us today, in West Virginia president obama said drug overdoses kill more americans 120 Overdose Deaths every day.

Reporter this is 19yearold mariah powers, in a video she made while high on heroin on the day she says she hit bottom. I dont want to live my life this way. Im going to end up dead or in prison. Reporter mariah had overdosed four times in the previous month. She told us she made the video as a reminder of how low she was that night. She detoxed alone, at home, after she couldnt find a facility to take her in. Just to see my face, like even how i looked that day is like, wow. Reporter this was mariah ten days later, when we sat down with her. She says she was just 16 when a boyfriend introduced her to heroin. It starts with your first high where it is just complete euphoria. And then when i didnt get that high again after i did it again i thought maybe i need to do a little more.

Theres no way. Im not doing this anymore. Reporter powers had never seen that video his daughter made. I want my dad back. I dont want to be this empty, hollow shell anymore. Reporter she told us that that was the night that she made the decision to get sober on her own. I hope she stays that way. Reporter youre not ready to believe that yet. No. She will always be an addict. And theres always going to be a a waiting for the shoe to drop. Reporter at this point do you feel confident that you can beat back that voice of addiction .

For others check back with us just a little bit later for the morning news and cbs this morning. York city, im scott pelley. Announcer this is the cbs overnight news. Welcome to the overnight news. Im don dahler. Vice President Joe Biden has made it official. He will not seek the democratic nomination for president. His announcement ends months of speculation. Heres what he had to say. Mr. President , thank you for lending me the rose garden for a minute. Its a pretty nice place. As my family and i have worked through the grieving process, ive said all along what ive said time and again to others, that it may very well be that that process, by the time we get through it, closes the window on mounting a Realistic Campaign for president. Ive concluded it has closed. I know from previous experience that there is no timetable for this process. The process doesnt respect or much care about things like filing deadlines or debates and primaries and caucuses. But i also know that i could do this i couldnt do this if the family wasnt ready. The good news is the family has reached that point. But as ive said many times, my family has suffered loss and i hoped there would come a time, and ive said this to other families, that sooner rather than later when you think of your loved one it brings a smile to your lips before it brings a tear to your eyes. Well, thats where the bidens are today, thank god. Beau beau is our inspiration. Unfortunately, i believe were out of time, the time necessary to mount a Winning Campaign for the nomination. But while i will not be a candidate, i will not be silent. I intend to speak out clearly and forcefully, to influence as much as i can where we stand as a party and where we need to go as a nation. And this is what i believe. I believe that president obama has led this nation from crisis to recovery and were now on the cusp of resurgence. Im proud to have played a part in that. This party, our nation, will be making a tragic mistake if we walk away or attempt to undo the obama legacy. The American People have worked too hard and weve come too far for that. Democrats should not only defend record, they should run on the record. Vice President Joe Biden. On capitol hill republican congressman paul ryan is singing a different tune. After weeks of refusing calls to run for speaker of the house, ryan now says hes open to the job but he has conditions. Nancy cordes has the story. Reporter first and foremost, ryan says that all the different wings of the House Republican conference must endorse him by friday or he wont run. That turns the tables on hardline conservatives who were hoping to extract concessions from their next speaker in exchange for their support. What i told members is if you can agree to these requests and if i can truly be a unifying figure then i will gladly serve.

Reporter the last request was personal. I cannot and i will not give up my family time. I may not be on the road as often as previous speakers, but i pledge to try and make up for it with more time communicating our vision, our message. Reporter most House Republicans were happy to oblige after begging the father of three to take the job. There was overwhelming applause. I didnt see anyone booing. Reporter one candidate in the speakers race promptly dropped out. Im out, and im in with paul. Hes the right person at the right time. Reporter ryans unusual approach is a reflection of his strong leverage. As a conservative whos also cut deals with democrats, hes seen as one of the only people who can unite his fractured party after hardliners threatened to force out the current speaker, john boehner, and doomed his replacement, kevin mccarthy. My greatest worry is the consequence of not stepping up. Of someday having my own kids ask me, when the stakes were so high, why didnt you do all you could do . Why didnt you stand and fight for my future when you had a chance to do so . Reporter ryan says if the entire party doesnt get behind him by friday he will happily stay in the job he has. And it puts the hardliners in a situation where theyll get blamed if he backs out. Ironically, gale, that is exactly what they say theyve been wanting from the next speaker, a hardball approach.

Ah reporter today companies are still testing how to make a reliable working hover board for the general public. On the real streets of 2015, though, toys like this swagway gliding around. Whoa. There was a lot of predictions we made, we thought maybe that will come true, that has a good chance. Hoverboards, no, we never thought and the fact they said life imitates art.

Lionfish, beautiful to look at and tasty to eat, but theyre also venomous and wreaking havoc along the ocean floor. Marlie hall reports for sunday morning. Reporter the atlantics coral reefs bustle with marine natural paradises filled with creatures of all colors, shapes, and sizes. Including the lionfish. But this species is far from its native habitat. In fact, its a sign of troubled waters. The lionfish is a beautiful, wonderful ornate reef fish. Its native to the indopacific ocean. And now in these oceans we have lionfish which dont belong swimming all over our reef areas. Reporter from scales to tails, ladd akin studies lion fish for the reef Environmental Education foundation. How did they get here . Well, theyre super popular in aquariums. And just like we see with other things, people sometimes set their pets free. Reporter and soon a few abandoned pets started multiplying. A single lionfish can produce and with no natural predator in the atlantic theres plenty of this fish in the sea. Year after year their numbers keep growing and growing. Lionfish are always on the hunt for their next meal, gulping down whatever they can find. Many of them the young of fish we eat like grouper and snapper. We could see extinctions of species. We could see reductions in populations of species we rely on economically. And those are worst Case Scenarios. You guys are removing a lot of lionfish from these surrounding waters. Im a best Case Scenario kind of guy and i see were engaging a lot of people right now. Its a great event. Reporter thats mainly through what akins calls derbies. I think we should hand out some award money and prizes. Reporter competitions across the u. S. And caribbean for scuba divers to kill as many lionfish as they can. The goal is to leave no lionfish behind. For a better look at a derby near ft. Lauderdale. Back. Reporter we went underwater with project baseline. Prepare to dive. Reporter its a Nonprofit Organization hats documenting the condition of the worlds oceans. Nemo reporting. My life support systems are okay, and my vents are secured. Reporter cofounder Robert Carmichael took us to a shipwreck 120 feet down, where lion fish like to feed. Here they are. Oh, yeah. Okay. Maybe they can snag that lionfish over there. Baited, trapped, or trawled. So the derbys scuba divers must spear them one by one, exercising patience and caution to avoid their venomous spines, to prevent painful though not deadly stings they place the fish in a plastic tube known as a zookeeper. Is it scary, do you think, for the divers to come face to face with the lionfish . They dont really attack you. Its just the only risk you really run is if you mishandle the lionfish. Reporter which is exactly what happened to diver patrick peacock. You got stung today. I did. I wasnt careful. He came free and he poked me, and i had to end the dive. Reporter what did it feel like . It feels like a wasp times ten. Entire length of the spine. Reporter but cut off those spines, as they did at the derby. And you can handle it just like any other fish. Reporter and lionfish go from malicious to delicious. A little bit of celery. Reporter really. Lion fish ceviche, anyone . Its good. Reporter some of that days catch was sent here, to normans key, a caribbean restaurant in new york city. Since lionfish must be killed one at a time, its expensive. And this is one of the few restaurants serving it. Were not making any money on the fish. Thats for sure. Reporter owner Ryan Chadwick sells the fish for around 26 a plate. Less than what it costs. Its more about helping the ecosystem and doing something different. So this is not about money for you. Not this, no. Reporter and as for the taste its a light flaky buttery fish. This version is actually the jerk lionfish. So youll have a little heat, a little spice. And this is me spearing a lionfish. Yes. With a fork. With the fish on a plate. Thats right. Okay. Oh, wow. That is really good. What do you think . I love it. Its actually very similar to snapper. Reporter which makes ladd akins hope that maybe we can eat our way out of this problem. I think we have a lot of examples of eating through fish stocks. Heres a fish that needs to be controlled. And if we can provide a culinary value, i think we can impact the lionfish population just through removal for consumption. That sounds pretty good to me. Its a winwin for everybody. Except the lionfish. Reporter if you bring your wallet and a sense of adventure. Bon appetit. Enjoy. The cbs overnight news will be right back.

Narrator donate to goodwill where your Donations Help Fund three teenagers in new york Face Criminal Charges over an alleged cyber attack on their school. The students are accused of hacking into School District computers, changing grades, and even class schedules. Anna werner reports. Reporter the original attack was three months ago. It led investigators to the house of the teen they call the mastermind behind the scheme. Its a story that seems fit for a hollywood screenplay, but its no pardon me. Its no joke that three 17yearold students are facing serious time in prison. Walking out of a long island courtroom tuesday, 17yearold daniel soares. Police say he was the ringleader behind the brazen cyber attack. His alleged accomplices, Alex Mosquera and erick vaysman, covered their faces as they were released on their own recognizance. The three teens are accused of hacking into their schools computers and changing students grades and schedules. At this point we believe daniel changed at least four of his own grades and one erick vaysmans grade. On his own grade it was changed i believe from a 94 to a 100, a perfect score of 100. Reporter police say soares broke into Commack High School after school hours and installed a device known as as a key log to a school computer. It enabled him to collect logins and password credentials while operating remotely from his home. Its a piece of hardware that you can put on a computer, interfaces with the keyboard and it records every stroke of the keyboard. Reporter School Officials called police in july after realizing the class schedules of about 300 students had been changed without authorization. Their investigation led them to soares, who disappeared for about a week before Police Located him. Were waiting for a full investigation to be done and he maintains his innocence. What are you doing . Dialing into the schools computer. Reporter its reminiscent of the 1983 film war games that featured another high schoolaged hacker, matthew broderick. But this reallife case has serious repercussions. Mosquera and vaysman are facing up to four years in prison. If convicted soares could see up to 11 years. All three students are facing computer tampering charges. Soares is also face counts of burglary and identity theft. Now, in a statement the commack School District says its reviewing its Network Security protocols to prevent Something Like this from happening again. And thats the overnight news for this thursday.

And a big change on sesame street. A very special new kid moves into the neighorhood. We all are amazing announcer this is the cbs overnight news. Joseph r. Biden jr. Stepped into the rose garden, laid out a platform, and then gracefully stepped off, bringing to an end his ambitions of becoming president and a nearly 50year political career. With president obama at his side, the Vice President announced he will not make a third run for the democratic nomination in what would have been an uphill battle against Hillary Clinton. Major garrett broke this story and he begins our coverage. I believe were out of time. The time necessary to mount a Winning Campaign for the nomination. But while i will not be a candidate, i will not be silent. Reporter joe biden stood with president obama and said the democratic nominees should stand on their accomplishments. Democrats should not only defend this record and protect this record. They should run on the record. Reporter but mostly biden framed an agenda for a campaign that was not to be. We cannot sustain the current levels of inequality that exists in this country. I believe the huge sums of unlimited and often secret money pouring into our politics is a fundamental threat to our democracy. Reporter he also made a plea for bipartisanship and took a veiled swipe at Hillary Clinton after she half jokingly called republicans her enemies during this months president ial debate. I dont thinke should look at republicans as our enemies. Theyre our opposition. Theyre not our enemies. And for the sake of the country we have to work together. Four more years of this kind of pitched battle may be more than this country can take. Reporter after losing his son beau to brain cancer earlier this year bidens decision on whether to enter the race hinged largely on his familys emotional readiness for a campaign. Today he called for an ambitious assault on the disease that claimed his son. If i could be anything, i would have wanted to be the president that ended cancer. Because its possible. Its personal. But i know we can do this. Reporter biden, ever cheerful and resilient, ended with a note of optimism that left many friends and supporters wondering what might have been. Its about equality. Its about fairness. Its about respect. As my dad used to say, its about affording every Single Person dignity. Its not complicated. We can do this. And when we do, america wont just win the future. We will own the finish line. Reporter despite president obamas affection and respect for biden, he had grown restless with the Vice President s prolonged president ial deliberations. And scott, mr. Obama was more than mildly pleased to see the speculation and the distractions that came with it laid to rest. Major garrett at the white house. Major, thanks. Now lets bring in john dickerson, our cbs news political director and anchor of face the nation. John, what struck you about the Vice President s statement . Well, you know, at one point in his remarks he thanked the reporters whod been covering his deliberation process and then he quickly added and covered my whole career. It was a subtle acknowledgment of a larger point, which was an end to this president ial process, he was marking whats likely to be the end of his career in washington. It started in the early 70s. And as if to harken back to that he made that pitch that major talked about for bipartisanship with republicans. It would have been interesting to see if he could have campaigned on that. Because that is not the mood of his party right now. Hillary clinton will be testifying before congress on the attack on the u. S. Compound in benghazi, libya and no doubt asked questions about her private email server. What are the stakes for her . Reporter well, you know, she had a lot of big hurdles to clear in october and there were those she could control and those she couldnt. The debate was one hurdle and shes cleared that. Joe bidens possible candidacy was another hurdle which has now been cleared away for her. So tomorrow is really the last big test for her in october. Can she weather a full days worth of testimony in front of a committee that even some republicans have said is aiming to hurt her politically . If she can do that, she will be on stable ground after what was a pretty shaky summer. And well be watching face the nation on sunday. John, thanks very much. Were about to find out if one man can unite republicans in congress. Many in the house are begging congressman paul ryan of wisconsin to be the new speaker, and last night the reluctant ryan said he would do it but only if all the factions support him. Ryan was the gops 2012 candidate for Vice President. Hes an expert on the budget and chairs the ways and means committee, which writes tax policy. Will his ultimatum work . Heres nancy cordes. Reporter paul ryan spent the day meeting with conservatives who didnt know quite what to make of his take it or leave it approach. There were a list of some pretty strong demands. It kind of reversed the psychology on us a little bit. Reporter ryan says he will only run for speaker if all the wings of the fractured republican conference endorse him by friday and if hardliners agree not to constantly threaten we have become the problem. If my colleagues entrust me to be the speaker, i want us to become the solution. Reporter idahos Raul Labrador didnt like the sound of that. It appears that hes asking for more power to be in the Speakers Office instead of less power. Reporter even this condition met with some resistance. I cannot and i will not give up my family time. Reporter congressman tim hulz kamp of kansas. What did you think of his request to spend most weekends with his family . I dont think the speakership is a 9 to 5 job. Ive got family. Thats why im not running for speaker or any other position like that. Youve got to work on the weekends. Reporter ryan should be a conservatives dream speaker. Hes pushed for deep cuts in food stamps, housing assistance, and proposed converting medicare into a voucher program. We want to have real fiscal control. Reporter most republicans say theyll back him. Speaker boehner signaled today ryans the only viable option. Decide to jump in on friday . Dont know. Reporter dont know. Ryans hardball approach may not be sitting well with some of the hardliners, but it is the kind of Strategic Thinking theyve been saying they want in a speaker. And its all in their hands now, scott, because ryan will not be able to get the 218 votes he would need on the house floor next thursday unless at least some of them support him. And ryan has also worked effectively with democrats. Nancy cordes on capitol hill. Nancy, thank you. Will be right back.

And thats the overnight news for this thursday. For some of you the news continues. For others check back with us just a little bit later for the morning news and cbs this morning. York city, im scott pelley. Announcer this is the cbs overnight news. Welcome to the overnight news. Im don daylor. Vice President Joe Biden has made it official. He will not seek the democratic nomination for president. His announcement ends months of speculation. Heres what he had to say. Mr. President , thank you for lending me the rose garden for a minute. Its a pretty nice place. As my family and i have worked through the grieving process, ive said all along what ive said time and again to others, that it may very well be that that process, by the time we get through it, closes the window on mounting a Realistic Campaign for president. That it might close. I know from previous experience that there is no timetable for this process. The process doesnt respect or much care about things like filing deadlines or debates and primaries and caucuses. But i also know that i could do this i couldnt do this if the family wasnt ready. The good news is the family has reached that point. But as ive said many times, my family has suffered loss and i hoped there would come a time, and ive said this to other families, that sooner rather than later when you think of your loved one it brings a smile to your lips before it brings a tear to your eyes. Well, thats where the bidens are today, thank god. Beau beau is our inspiration. Unfortunately, i believe were to mount a Winning Campaign for the phenomenonnomination. But while i will not be a candidate, i will not be silent. I intend to speak out clearly and forcefully, to influence as much as i can where we stand as a party and where we need to go as a nation. And this is what i believe. I believe that president obama has led this nation from crisis to recovery and were now on the cusp of resurgence. Im proud to have played a part in that. This party, our nation, will be making a tragic mistake if we walk away or attempt to undo the obama legacy. The American People have worked too hard and weve come too far for that. Democrats have not only defend this record and protect this record record, they should run on the record. Vice President Joe Biden. On capitol hill republican congressman paul ryan is singing a different tune after weeks of refusing calls to run for speaker of the house, ryan now says hes open to the job but he has conditions. Nancy cordes has the story. Reporter first and foremost, ryan says that all the different wings of the House Republican conference must endorse him by friday or he wont run. That turns the tables on hardline conservatives who were hoping to extract concessions from their next speaker in exchange for their support. What i told members is if you can agree to these requests and if i can truly be a unifying figure then i will gladly serve. Reporter ryan laid out his requests first for House Republicans and then for the press, starting with a call for the gop to start focusing on solutions. We need to move from an Opposition Party to being a proposition party. Reporter then he said the house rule book must be changed. And it needs to include fixes that ensure that we do not experience constant leadership challenges and crises. Reporter the last request was personal. I cannot and i will not give up my family time. I may not be on the road as often as previous speakers, but i pledge to try and make up for it with more time communicating our vision, our message. Reporter most House Republicans were happy to oblige after begging the father of three to take the job. There was overwhelming applause. I didnt see anyone booing. Reporter one candidate in the speakers race promptly dropped out. Im out, and im in with paul. Hes the right person at the right time. Reporter ryans unusual approach is a reflection of his strong leverage. As a conservative whos also cut deals with democrats, hes seen as one of the only people who can unite his fractured party after hardliners threatened to force out the current speaker, john boehner, and doomed his replacement, kevin mccarthy. Ryan warned them, as speaker he my greatest worry is the consequence of not stepping up. Of someday having my own kids ask me, when the stakes were so high, why didnt you do all you could do . Why didnt you stand and fight for my future when you had a chance to do so . Reporter ryan says if the entire party doesnt get behind him by friday he will happily stay in the job he has. And it puts the hardliners in a situation where theyll get blamed if he backs out. Ironically, gale, that is exactly what they say theyve been wanting from the next speaker, a hardball approach. Police in st. Louis still have no suspects in a rash of fires at predominantly black churches. Six churches have been burned over the past two weeks. They are all within five miles of each other and stand on the doorstep of ferguson, missouri.

Marlie hall reports for sunday morning. Reporter the atlantics coral reefs bustle with marine life. Natural paradises filled with creatures of all colors, shapes, and sizes. Including the lion fish. But this species is far from its native habitat. In fact, its a sign of troubled waters. The lion fish is a beautiful, wonderful ornate reef fish. Its native to the indopacific ocean. And now in these oceans we have lion fish which dont belong swimming all over our reef areas. Reporter from scales to tails, vlad akin studies lion fish for the reef Environmental Education foundation. How did they get here . Well, theyre super popular in aquariums. And just like we see with other things, people sometimes set their pets free. Reporter and soon a few abandoned pets started multiplying. A single lion fish can produce 2 and with no natural predator in the atlantic theres plenty of this fish in the sea. Year after year their numbers keep growing and growing. Lion fish are always on the hunt for their next meal. Gulping down whatever they can find. Many of them the young of fish we eat like grouper and snapper. We could see extinctions of species. We could see reductions in populations of species we rely on economically. And those are worst Case Scenarios. You guys are moving a lot of lion fish from these surrounding waters. Im a best Case Scenario kind of guy and i see were engaging a lot of people right now. Its a great event. Reporter thats mainly through what akins calls derbies. I think we should hand out some award money and prizes. Reporter competitions across divers to kill as many lion fish as they can. The goal is to leave no lion fish behind. For a better look at a derby near ft. Lauderdale. Back. Reporter we went underwater with project baseline. Prepare to dive. Reporter its a Nonprofit Organization thats documenting the condition of the worlds oceans. Nemo reporting. My life support systems are okay, and my vents are secured. Reporter cofounder Robert Carmichael took us to a shipwreck 120 feet down, where lion fish like to feed. Here they are. Oh, yeah. Okay. Maybe we can snag that lion fish over there. Reporter lion fish cant be baited, trapped, or trawled. So the derbys scuba divers must spear them one by one, exercising patience and caution to avoid their venomous spines, to prevent painful though not deadly stings they place the fish in a plastic tube known as a zookeeper. Is it scary, do you think, for the divers to come face to face with the lion fish . They dont really attack you. Its just the only risk you really run is if you mishandle the lion fish. Reporter which is exactly what happened to diver patrick peacock. You got stung today. I did. I wasnt careful. He came free and he poked me, and i had to end the dive. Reporter what did it feel like . It feels like a wasp times ten. The venom is contained in the entire length of the spine. Reporter but cut off those spines, as they did at the derby. And you can handle it just like any other fish. Reporter and lion fish go from malicious to delicious. A little bit of celery. Reporter really. Lion fish ceviche, anyone . Its good. Reporter some of that days catch was sent here, to normans key, a caribbean restaurant in new york city. Since lion fish must be killed one at a time, its expense i. And this is one of the few restaurants serving it. Were not making any money on the fish. Thats for sure. Reporter owner Ryan Chadwick sells the fish for around 26 a plate. Less than what it costs. Its more about helping the ecosystem and doing something different. So this is not about money for you. Not this, no. Reporter and as for the taste its a light flaky buttery fish. This version is actually the jerk lion fish. So youll have a little heat, a little spice. And this is me spearing a lion fish. Yes. With a fork. With the fish on a plate. Thats right. Okay. Oh, wow. That is really good. What do you think . I love it. Its actually very similar to snapper. Reporter which makes lad akins hope that maybe we can eat our way out of this problem. I think we have a lot of examples of eating through fish stocks. Heres a fish that needs to be controlled. And if we can provide a culinary value, i think we can impact the lion fish population just through removal for consumption. That sounds pretty good to its a winwin for everybody. Except the lion fish. Reporter if you bring your wallet and a sense of adventure. Bon appetit. Enjoy. The cbs overnight news will be right back. Embarrassed by a prostate exam . Imagine how your doctor feels. So why do i do it . Because i get paid. Und. On this side of the glove i know prostate exams can save lives. So, if you are a man over 50, talk to you doctor to see if a prostate exam is right for you. If we can do it, so can you. Three teenagers in new york Face Criminal Charges over an alleged cyber attack on their school. The students are accused of hacking into School District computers, changing grades, and even class schedules. Anna werner reports. Reporter the original attack was three months ago. It led investigators to the house of the teen they call the mastermind behind the scheme. Its a story that seems fit for a hollywood screenplay, but its pardon me. Its no joke that three 17yearold students are facing serious time in prison. Walking out of a long island courtroom tuesday, 17yearold daniel soares. Police say he was the ringleader behind the brazen cyber attack. His alleged accomplices, alex muscara and eric vaisman covered their faces as they were released on their own recognizance recognizance. The three teens are accuse of hacking into their schools computers and changing grades and schedules. At this point we believe daniel changed at left one of his own grades and one of eric vaismans grade. His grade was changed from 49 to a perfect score of 100. Reporter police say soares broke into comack high school after school hours and installed a device known as as a key log to a school computer. It enabled him to collect logins and password credentials while operating remotely from his home. Its a piece of hardware that you can put on a computer, interfaces with the keyboard and it records every stroke of the keyboard. Reporter School Officials called police in july after raeldsing the class schedules of about 300 students had been changed without authorization. Their investigators led them to soares, who disappeared for about a week before Police Located him. Were waiting for a full investigation to be done and he maintains his innocence. What are you doing . Dialing into the schools computer. Reporter its reminiscent of the 1983 film war games that featured another high schoolaged hacker, matthew broderick. But this reallife case has muscara and vaisman are facing up to four years in prison. If convicted soares could see up to 11 years. All three students are facing computer tampering charges.

Baby boomers are forced to put off retirement. Right now all im looking at is working and making money. And a big change on sesame street. A very special new kid moves into the neighborhood. We all are amazing announcer this is the cbs overnight news. Joseph r. Biden jr. Stepped into the rose garden, laid out a platform, and then gracefully stepped off, bringing to an end his ambitions of becoming with president obama at his side, the Vice President announced he will not make a third run for the democratic nomination in what would have been an uphill battle against Hillary Clinton. Major garrett broke this story and he begins our coverage. I believe were out of time. The time necessary to mount a Winning Campaign for the nomination. But while i will not be a candidate, i will not be silent. Reporter joe biden stood with president obama and said the democratic nominees should stand on their accomplishments. Democrats should not only defend this record and protect this record. They should runon the record. Reporter but mostly biden framed an agenda for a campaign that was not to be. We cannot sustain the current levels of inequality that exist in this country. I believe the huge sums of unlimited and often secret money pouring into our politics is a fundamental threat to our democracy. Reporter he also made a plea for bipartisanship and took a veiled swipe at Hillary Clinton after she half jokingly called republicans her enemies during this months president ial debate. I dont think we should look at republicans as our enemies. Theyre our opposition. Theyre not our enemies. And for the sake of the country we have to work together. Four more years of this kind of pitched battle may be more than this country can take. Reporter after losing his son beau to brain cancer earlier this year bidens decision on whether to enter the race hinged largely on his familys emotional readiness for a campaign. Today he called for an ambitious assault on the disease that claimed his son. If i could be anything, i would have wanted to be the president that ended cancer. Because its possible. Its personal. But i know we can do this. Reporter biden, ever cheerful and resilient, ended with a note of optimism that left many friendsand supporters wondering what might have been. Its about equality. Its about fairness. Its about respect. As my dad used to say, its about affording every Single Person dignity. Its not complicated. We can do this. And when we do, america wont just win the future. We will own the finish line. Reporter despite president obamas affection and respect for biden, he had grown restless with the Vice President s prolonged president ial deliberations. And scott, mr. Obama was more than mildly pleased to see the speculation and the distractions that came with it laid to rest. Major garrett at the white house. Major, thanks. Now lets bring in john dickerson, our cbs news political director and anchor of face the nation. John, what struck you about the Vice President s statement . Well, you know, at one point in his remarks he thanked the reporters whod been covering his deliberation process and then he quickly added and covered my whole career. It was a subtle acknowledgment of a larger point, which was that biden wasnt just putting an end to this president ial process, he was marking whats likely to be the end of his career in washington. It started in the early 70s. And as if to harken back to that he made that pitch that major talked about for bipartisanship with republicans. It would have been interesting to see if he could have campaigned on that. Because that is not the mood of his party right now. Now, tomorrows a big day. Hillary clinton will be testifying before congress on the attack on the u. S. Compound in benghazi, libya and no doubt asked questions about her private email server. Reporter well, you know, she had a lot of big hurdles to clear in october and there were those she could control and those she couldnt. Shes cleared that. Joe bidens possible candidacy was another hurdle which has now been cleared away for her. So tomorrow is really the last big test for her in october. Can she weather a full days worth of testimony in front of a committee that even some republicans have said is aiming to hurt her politically . If she can do that, she will be on stable ground after what was a pretty shaky summer. And well be watching face the nation on sunday. John, thanks very much. Were about to find out if one man can unite republicans in congress. Many in the house are begging congressman paul ryan of wisconsin to be the new speaker, and last night the reluctant ryan said he would do it but only if all the factions support him.

Reporter paul ryan spent the day meeting with conservatives who didnt know quite what to make of his take it or leave it approach. There were a list of some pretty strong demands. It kind of reversed the psychology on us a little bit. Reporter ryan says he will only run for speaker if all the wings of the fractured republican conference endorse him by friday and if hardliners agree not to constantly threaten we have become the problem. If my colleagues entrust me to be the speaker, i want us to become the solution. Reporter idahos Raul Labrador didnt like the sound of that. It appears that hes asking for more power to be in the power. Reporter even this condition met with some resistance. I cannot and i will not give up my family time. Reporter congressman Tim Huelskamp of kansas. What did you think of his request to spend most weekends with his family . I dont think the speakership is a 9 to 5 job. Ive got family. Thats why im not running for speaker or any other position like that. Youve got to work on the weekends. Reporter ryan should be a conservatives dream speaker. Hes pushed for deep cuts in food stamps, housing assistance, and proposed converting medicare into a voucher program. We want to have real fiscal control. Reporter most republicans say theyll back him. Speaker boehner signaled today ryans the only viable option. Whats plan b if he doesnt decide to jump in on friday . Dont know. Reporter dont know. Ryans hardball approach may not be sitting well with some of the hardliners, but it is the kind of Strategic Thinking theyve been saying they want in a speaker. And its all in their hands now, scott, because ryan will not be able to get the 218 votes he would need on the house floor next thursday unless at least some of them support him. And ryan has also worked effectively with democrats. Nancy cordes on capitol hill. Nancy, thank you. The cbs overnight news will be right back.
