[0:03] Nature launches an attack on the US

[0:06] mainland.

[0:11] Hurricane Andrew bombs southern Florida

[0:14] with killer winds and rain.

[0:16] >> We've lost our homes. We've lost

[0:18] everything.

[0:20] >> The National Guard moves in to keep

[0:22] order. And now the powerful storm is

[0:25] ready to strike again.

[0:28] >> [music]

[0:32] >> This is the CBS Evening News. Dan Rather

[0:36] reporting [music] tonight from an area

[0:38] just south of Miami. This area is the

[0:41] hardest hit so far by Hurricane Andrew.

[0:45] Now, the question is, where does the

[0:47] hurricane hit next? It hit first and

[0:51] hardest today on the east coast of

[0:53] Florida with winds that gusted up to 165

[0:57] mph. Right now, the hurricane is in the

[1:00] Gulf of Mexico, expected to hit land

[1:03] again as soon as tomorrow night. The New

[1:06] Orleans area is one possible place for

[1:09] its next landfall. Death toll at least

[1:12] 12, including a minimum of eight dead in

[1:15] southern Florida. Too soon to total up

[1:17] the immense damage, but you can bet it

[1:19] will be in the many billions. A curfew

[1:22] is in effect in Miami, and the National

[1:24] Guard's been called out. CBS news

[1:27] correspondent Bernard Goldberg was here

[1:29] in Miami with us when Andrew struck.

[1:36] It was one of the most powerful

[1:38] hurricanes of the century. Winds gusting

[1:40] to 165 m an hour. And if the image

[1:44] makers like to think of Miami as an

[1:46] American paradise, in a flash, Hurricane

[1:49] Andrew turned Miami into a paradise

[1:51] lost.

[1:58] A million people have no electricity, no

[2:00] phones, and many of them have no water.

[2:03] Streets have become obstacle courses.

[2:05] Airports were closed.

[2:08] And tonight, National Guard troops are

[2:10] on the streets enforcing a dust to dawn

[2:13] curfew.

[2:15] The worst damage was in the suburbs

[2:17] south of Miami. But because this is an

[2:19] inland area about 10 miles from the

[2:21] water, residents were not required to

[2:24] evacuate.

[2:26] >> A reporter supposed to be disinterested,

[2:29] a completely objective observer.

[2:32] But it isn't easy when the hurricane

[2:33] hits your block.

[2:35] This is where I live.

[2:39] But I was one of the lucky ones. The

[2:41] unlucky ones are the walking wounded.

[2:44] The people Andrew left devastated. We

[2:47] have nothing. Nothing at all. It's

[2:49] totally took everything. Destroyed

[2:51] everything. Don't even have a roof in

[2:52] the house. Don't have nothing.

[2:54] Everything and everywhere is just gone.

[2:56] We've lost everything and everybody's

[2:57] homeless. I don't know what we're going

[2:59] to do.

[2:59] >> I guess everybody's in the same shape

[3:01] right now. Some of them's whole houses

[3:04] are gone. I do have some walls left, but

[3:06] that's it.

[3:07] >> And in one of the wealthiest parts of

[3:09] town, Andrew mocked the people in their

[3:11] expensive homes, too.

[3:14] And tonight, President Bush came to

[3:16] Miami to inspect the damage. One of his

[3:18] sons lives in the area worst hit. The

[3:21] hurricane ripped through Miami in just a

[3:23] few hours, but it will take weeks in

[3:25] some places, months in others before

[3:28] Miami is back to normal.

[3:31] >> Dan, you've been through enough

[3:32] hurricanes to know that in a much deeper

[3:34] sense, things don't really get back to

[3:36] normal. You start to wonder if something

[3:38] like this can happen again. And the

[3:39] simple fact of the matter is the answer

[3:41] is yes, it can. And remember, Andrew is

[3:45] just the first hurricane of this season.

[3:48] >> Bernie, we know that people are hurting.

[3:50] There's a lot of pain out there. It

[3:51] would help to have the power on, to have

[3:53] the lights on. How soon can that happen?

[3:55] >> Boy, it sure would. Dan, uh, for some

[3:57] people, it may happen in a matter of

[3:59] hours or days. But for others, the sad

[4:01] fact is it's going to take a long time,

[4:03] probably weeks.

[4:04] >> Thanks, Bernie. Andrew became a tropical

[4:07] storm one week ago today. It was

[4:10] upgraded to a hurricane on Saturday

[4:12] morning out in the Atlantic east of the

[4:14] Bahamas. Turning westward, Andrew struck

[4:18] the top of the Bahamas last night,

[4:20] reportedly leaving four people dead

[4:21] there. Then the hurricane came Plumb bob

[4:25] straight right to the coast of Florida,

[4:27] slamming shore this morning just after

[4:29] 5:00 Eastern time, 25 miles southwest of

[4:33] Miami. The eye of the storm tore through

[4:36] the community of Homestead, then raced,

[4:39] luckily for Fidians, across the very

[4:41] southern tip of Florida. Remember, the

[4:42] Everglades takes up a lot of that space.

[4:44] And 3 hours later entered the Gulf of

[4:46] Mexico. And that's where Hurricane

[4:48] Andrew is tonight out in the Gulf of

[4:50] Mexico. It is expected to hit land again

[4:53] with Mississippi and Louisiana

[4:55] considered the most likely places where

[4:58] it may hit. Earlier today, I went to

[5:01] perhaps the hardest hit area of Florida,

[5:03] that Homestead section of the state, 25

[5:05] mi just southwest of here in Miami. The

[5:08] eye of the hurricane roared directly

[5:10] over Homestead moments after slamming

[5:13] first into the edge of the Florida

[5:15] coast.

[5:19] This is the Highway of Heartbreak,

[5:22] Florida's new trail of tears. As we

[5:24] drove south on the Florida Turnpike from

[5:26] Miami down toward Homestead, the extent

[5:29] of the damage was stunningly evident.

[5:32] The word is incredible. The place is an

[5:34] overpass near Homestead, Florida. The

[5:37] main force of the hurricane winds came

[5:38] through here. Gust up to 165 mph. Let me

[5:42] show you something. See these are light

[5:44] poles on the overpass. This is where one

[5:48] was.

[5:50] The force and twist of the wind

[5:53] broke this off. The whole light pole is

[5:56] down there. Now, from here in the

[5:57] overpass, as far as the eye can see,

[6:01] there are, I do not exaggerate,

[6:03] thousands of roofs blown off homes in

[6:06] this area.

[6:07] A storage facility that looked as if it

[6:09] had been bombed. Personal belongings

[6:12] blown everywhere. Overturned vehicles

[6:14] were scattered and strewn for miles.

[6:17] >> Well, welcome to the holiday. Welcome to

[6:20] the Holiday Inn where we found not only

[6:23] a building destroyed but lives in

[6:25] shambles too.

[6:26] >> We are at just a few employees because

[6:30] our house is we lived on we lived on

[6:32] Hollywood. There's no house. We have no

[6:34] house to go back to

[6:35] >> and Paul my brother

[6:40] come get us. Don't cry.

[6:43] >> Don't cry alive.

[6:46] >> Okay. Okay.

[6:48] Well, I'm the food and beverage

[6:50] director. I've lost my restaurant and my

[6:53] bar, my banquet rooms. We've lost our

[6:55] homes. We've lost everything.

[6:59] >> The National Guard was hurried to this

[7:01] shopping center where incredibly looting

[7:03] was going on during the storm.

[7:06] >> What's happened here? The three of

[7:08] >> these three gentlemen right here under

[7:09] arrest for looting. They were caught

[7:11] inside here by members of the guard and

[7:13] a date officer as they were inside the

[7:15] Bites. What this was, I don't know, but

[7:18] it was a 3/4 of a city block of

[7:21] something gone, leveled across the

[7:25] street. Toys are us has become Toys was

[7:29] Us, completely destroyed. President Bush

[7:32] has declared three counties federal

[7:34] disaster areas. And in the

[7:36] neighborhoods, you could see why. People

[7:38] trying to climb out, clean up, and

[7:41] figure out what they have left. Anybody

[7:43] hurt?

[7:44] >> No. Nobody was in there. Everybody, we

[7:46] were inside, you know, my parents were

[7:47] in the bathroom with my brother and

[7:49] sister and I was in the closet with some

[7:51] friends.

[7:52] >> Are you Catholic?

[7:53] >> Uh, yeah.

[7:54] >> Yeah.

[7:55] >> Were you praying?

[7:56] >> Oh, all night.

[7:58] >> And

[7:58] >> this was your room?

[7:59] >> Yep.

[8:03] >> I mean, it's just ironic that that, you

[8:05] know, that picture there that was just

[8:08] given to us is just standing still

[8:10] there.

[8:10] And the people, these people are not

[8:12] accustomed to easy lives.

[8:14] >> Today, they kept telling us it was worse

[8:16] someplace else.

[8:18] >> And it was.

[8:19] >> Did you Did you think you might die?

[8:21] >> Yeah. One time I thought the roof was

[8:22] coming off and we would go flying.

[8:26] >> So, what were you doing at that moment?

[8:28] >> What I was doing, praying very hard.

[8:32] >> After a long night, everyone who lives

[8:34] along the Homestead Highway is still in

[8:36] shock, still in disbelief. You know, I

[8:39] think some people saw some of the

[8:41] hurricane and said, "Well, it's not so

[8:42] bad." It is. It's terrible.

[8:45] >> I don't think anybody got killed, so

[8:46] that's a good part.

[8:46] >> That's a good part. That's a good point.

[8:48] >> Robbery can always be replaced.

[8:49] >> Thank you very much. Good luck to you.

[8:51] Good luck.

[8:51] >> All right. Good luck.

[8:53] >> Happened to you. Thank you.

[8:54] >> Thank you.

[8:56] >> Yes, they need it. Luck and a lot of

[8:58] help. Still to come on tonight's CBS

[9:00] Evening News live from Florida. We'll

[9:02] take you across the Gulf to the place

[9:04] the hurricane may hit next. So stay here

[9:07] with us.

[9:20] It's a very sophisticated system. You're

[9:22] probably better off taking it to the GM

[9:23] dealership.

[9:24] >> We haven't got that kind of equipment

[9:25] here. Best bets the dealership.

[9:28] >> Pretty tricky stuff. Out of our league.

[9:30] >> Sorry. Try the dealership.

[9:32] >> The dealership.

[9:32] >> The GM dealership.

[9:37] >> [music]

[9:42] [music]

[9:46] [music]

[9:56] [music]

[10:05] >> For painful gas, which would you choose?

[10:08] Your ant acid or gas X, the tablet made

[10:11] for gas. It's extra strength. 100%

[10:13] syimethone to fight gas faster, faster

[10:16] than your ant acid. Fight gas right with

[10:19] Gas X.

[10:23] Back here live in southern Florida now.

[10:25] Thousands of people spent a nerve night

[10:28] in shelters. Many of those who went home

[10:31] today had their hearts broken, their

[10:33] dreams shattered. As Jazelle Fernandez

[10:36] reports from West Dade County,

[10:39] >> for many who braced themselves for the

[10:40] howling nightmare of Hurricane Andrew in

[10:42] shelters, not knowing what the morning

[10:44] would bring seemed unbearable. But at

[10:47] daybreak, first light on the disaster

[10:48] for many seemed far worse than imagined.

[10:51] >> Oh my god.

[10:53] >> Even residents who weathered the storm

[10:54] in their homes couldn't believe how

[10:56] devastating the night had been.

[10:58] >> What did you do to get through this last

[11:00] night?

[11:00] >> Just sat there in the kitchen. I was

[11:02] praying to the Lord

[11:06] and it helped.

[11:07] >> Doris, a widow with no home or flood

[11:09] insurance, lost almost everything. Parts

[11:11] of her roof caved in. Her bedroom was

[11:13] demolished. Shattered windows littered

[11:15] the floor. Her car and backyard, both

[11:17] are in ruin.

[11:18] >> This is as clean as

[11:20] >> Doris's neighbor, Gino Sanelippo, also

[11:22] was hit hard. Before the hurricane, he

[11:24] had plans to retire and saw the house

[11:26] now flooded and destroyed. The truth of

[11:29] it is you get wiped out after you build

[11:31] up something for so many years. Uh

[11:36] just unbelievable.

[11:39] >> 156th Street is one of the neighborhoods

[11:40] hit hardest by Hurricane Andrew. As if

[11:43] the chaos in their homes and here out in

[11:44] the streets is not enough, neighbors are

[11:47] having to contend with yet one more

[11:48] battle. Some are having to fight off

[11:50] lutters.

[11:51] >> Lutters also have begun preying on

[11:53] businesses unabashed, taking advantage

[11:55] of the crisis.

[11:56] >> It's pretty sad.

[11:58] you know, that people have to really get

[12:00] on to people when they're down.

[12:02] >> Some residents can't even seek refuge or

[12:04] comfort in their neighborhood churches

[12:06] demolished in the storm.

[12:07] >> I could not imagine that it was anything

[12:10] like this. They're going to have to tear

[12:11] the whole building down and I'm just

[12:14] wondering where we're going to go to

[12:15] church.

[12:16] >> Despite beaten spirits, Doris, Gino, and

[12:18] the neighbors have already begun

[12:20] cleaning up, rebuilding. They wasted no

[12:22] time.

[12:24] For some residents, the cleanup is going

[12:26] to be very extensive, and 90% of Florida

[12:29] homeowners reportedly have no flood

[12:31] insurance. All hurricane survivors are

[12:33] being urged to apply for government aid

[12:34] very quickly because the low interest

[12:36] loans that are offered do tend to run

[12:38] out quickly. And before I sign off, Dan,

[12:40] I should note that in the shopping

[12:41] center where we've been standing,

[12:42] looting has continued to go on this

[12:44] evening. Right out in the open, people

[12:46] have been driving up, running into the

[12:48] stores, raiding them, taking out bags of

[12:49] stolen goods, and driving away, not

[12:51] seeming to care whether they're seen or

[12:53] whether or not they're caught. Dan,

[12:55] >> a footnote. The National Guard is on

[12:57] duty with the police, but the US

[12:58] military is not. Jazelle, you and I know

[13:01] there's a poignant story on every street

[13:03] corner, every block. Which one burned

[13:05] deepest in your memory bank today?

[13:08] >> I guess the story of Doris, the woman

[13:10] that you saw in my piece just a moment

[13:12] ago. She's alone. She's a widow and

[13:14] she's lost really everything. And

[13:15] really, it's the community uh neighbors

[13:17] who have come to her aid to help her

[13:19] out. And I think it's that kind of

[13:20] spirit that really keeps this community

[13:21] together. And the spirit that the people

[13:24] say they still don't want to leave

[13:25] Florida. They love it here. This is

[13:26] their home and they won't let hurricane

[13:28] drive them out. I like that spirit.

[13:30] >> Thanks, Jazelle. who is in southern Dade

[13:32] County. After its three-hour rampage,

[13:34] the hurricane entered the Gulf of Mexico

[13:36] just below Naples on Florida's west

[13:39] coast. Near Naples, in Everglades City,

[13:42] and on Marco Island, there were

[13:44] overturned cars, flooding, and some

[13:46] damage. But CBS News correspondent Aaron

[13:48] Hayes reports the area escaped the kind

[13:51] of destruction the hurricane inflicted

[13:53] on South Florida's other eastern side.

[13:56] Now, the hurricane is now turning its

[13:58] attention to the Gulf Coast. It could

[14:00] strike anywhere from the Mississippi

[14:02] Alabama line on over to Louisiana,

[14:04] possibly even as far over as Texas

[14:06] within the next 48 hours. Hurricane

[14:08] warnings are up in the area. The mayor

[14:11] of Grand Isle, Louisiana, a very low

[14:13] place, warned that Andrew is coming like

[14:16] quote a bull out of the chute. Scott P

[14:19] is in New Orleans.

[14:21] Good evening, Dan. Just a few hours ago,

[14:24] the mayor of New Orleans ordered the

[14:26] evacuation of lowlying areas. This

[14:29] evening, those evacuations are well

[14:31] underway. The people in Bayou country

[14:33] know they have precious little time once

[14:36] the water begins to rise. This

[14:39] Mississippi Delta area is perhaps one of

[14:41] the most vulnerable in all of the Gulf

[14:44] Coast region because many people are

[14:46] living on nothing more than the sediment

[14:48] of the river. Their houses are built on

[14:51] that sediment just a few inches above

[14:54] the water line. Oil companies today

[14:56] began evacuating thousands of offshore

[14:58] workers and bringing in as many of their

[15:00] offshore oil rigs as possible. We are

[15:04] told that levy control district workers

[15:06] are now filling thousands of sandbags

[15:09] and are busy closing the 111 levy gates

[15:13] that protect the city of New Orleans.

[15:16] It's important to remember that New

[15:17] Orleans is virtually completely below

[15:20] sea level. It's helpful to think of the

[15:23] city as being in the bottom of a soup

[15:25] bowl with the levy system forming the

[15:27] edge around it. The mayor of New Orleans

[15:30] says today that anyone who is able to

[15:32] evacuate now should do so, although that

[15:35] evacuation of the entire city is not yet

[15:38] mandatory. We understand that the

[15:40] governor of Louisiana has put the

[15:42] National Guard on standby. Dan

[15:45] >> Scott, in the late 50s, it was a

[15:47] terrible hurricane with a high death

[15:48] toll in that area of Louisiana around

[15:50] Louisiana.

[15:51] around New Orleans, between New Orleans

[15:53] and the Texas border. Is there any talk

[15:55] around New Orleans that this could be in

[15:57] its own way perhaps the worst hurricane

[16:00] this half century? It could be, Dan,

[16:02] because the worst hurricane that has

[16:04] ever come ashore here was a category

[16:06] three. Andrew, as you noted earlier, is

[16:08] a category 4. And the people at the

[16:10] River River Control District tell us

[16:12] they don't know what'll happen if the

[16:14] flood stage goes above 15 or 20 ft. It

[16:17] could easily breach the levies at that

[16:19] point.

[16:20] Thanks, Scott. And that's a category

[16:22] four on a five scale. Five being the

[16:25] worst. We're going to have more about

[16:26] the hurricane, particularly an update on

[16:28] where it is and where it may be headed a

[16:30] little later on the broadcast. But right

[16:31] now, stay here with us for the CBS

[16:33] Evening News. We're going to take you to

[16:35] Somalia, Africa, and show you what's

[16:37] happening there.

[16:43] [music]

[16:49] Never seen nothing like it. I mean,

[16:51] Rusty Slade was an orary sort. Always

[16:53] [music] ate his old brand flakes just

[16:55] for fiber. But one morning, I gave him

[16:58] Kellogg's new complete brand flakes

[17:00] weren't the same. More than fiber, they

[17:02] had whole grain wheat. Flakes were new,

[17:04] too. Crispy, crunchy. [music] Why, that

[17:06] Kellogg's complete brand flakes even had

[17:08] a better nutty taste. It was all so

[17:11] good. May Rusty smile almost. New

[17:15] Kellogg's complete brand [music] flakes.

[17:17] Fiber and then some.

[17:19] >> Osteoporosis robs our bones of calcium

[17:22] [music] until one day they can break.

[17:24] But we can help defend ourselves with

[17:26] exercise [music] and extra calcium. Two

[17:28] tons a day is one of the best sources of

[17:30] extra calcium. Ask the doctor about

[17:32] calcium and tums.

[17:34] >> Look at me enjoying a crisp red apple.

[17:38] Even with my dentures, thanks to Super

[17:41] Polygrip.

[17:41] >> Super Polygrip holds so tight, many

[17:44] denture wearers can enjoy more of their

[17:46] favorite foods,

[17:46] >> even apples. Super Polygrip.

[17:49] >> I was really downing those tablets.

[17:53] >> Come on, they're not candy.

[17:56] I

[17:56] >> started to think there was something

[17:58] really wrong with my stomach.

[18:01] >> Was I relieved when my doctor told

[18:03] [music] me to try a new ant acid tablet?

[18:06] Introducing Milanta tablets shown to

[18:09] neutralize [music] more stomach acid

[18:11] than the leading tablet.

[18:13] >> Unbelievable.

[18:15] >> New Milanta tablets. My doctor [music]

[18:17] said myanta.

[18:20] >> Are you getting a real bargain or just

[18:22] getting ripped off? Watch out for fakes.

[18:25] An all new 48 hours Wednesday. [music]

[18:32] Back now live in southern Florida where

[18:34] there's still a lot of strange looking

[18:35] clouds, shifting winds, and occasional

[18:37] rain. We're tracking the hurricane as

[18:40] it's pointed now in the general

[18:41] direction of New Orleans. More about it

[18:43] later, but right now for other news,

[18:44] let's go to New York and Paula's on.

[18:46] Paula,

[18:47] >> thanks a lot, Dan. On a college campus

[18:48] in Montreal today, a professor went on a

[18:50] shooting rampage, killing two people and

[18:52] wounding three before he was captured by

[18:55] police. It happened at Concordia

[18:57] University. A witness said the professor

[19:00] was walking across the grounds like a

[19:01] robot, firing a pistol. He reportedly

[19:04] was angry because the university had

[19:06] denied his tenure. A US military relief

[19:09] operation is up and running in Kenya,

[19:11] bringing food to starving refugees from

[19:13] the civil war in neighboring Somalia.

[19:16] Later this week, the US airlift will go

[19:17] into Somalia itself. CBS News

[19:20] correspondent Dr. Bob Arnot is there.

[19:25] >> Yeah, he's good. He's dead.

[19:30] A young orphan dies in the village of

[19:32] Adoa. This is the face of death seen

[19:35] hundreds of times every day throughout

[19:37] Somalia. An apocalypse of enormous

[19:39] dimensions even for Africa.

[19:42] >> This is probably the worst thing I ever

[19:44] hope to see in my life as far as total

[19:46] devastation.

[19:48] >> This week, the United States begins a

[19:50] huge humanitarian airlift, moving

[19:53] 145,000 tons of food to Somalia. Some

[19:57] relief flights from Europe are already

[19:58] landing, but most of the food never gets

[20:01] where it is needed most.

[20:04] >> We bring in tons of food every day, and

[20:07] as fast as we bring it in, it gets

[20:08] looted. As fast as we bring in medical

[20:11] supplies, they get stolen.

[20:14] >> Every street plays like a scene from

[20:16] Road Warrior. Armed gangs run rampant in

[20:20] a country where the right to bear arms

[20:22] is the only law of the land. Bring it

[20:24] back.

[20:24] >> How many patients do we have in now?

[20:26] 150.

[20:27] >> We have 100 patients or so. And out of

[20:29] those, about 98 are gunshot wounds.

[20:31] >> 10-year-old Saloo was caught in the

[20:33] crossfire of gangs fighting over turf.

[20:36] Rival armies widely loot and kill the

[20:39] innocent.

[20:40] >> Their most lethal weapons are not

[20:42] machine guns, assault rifles, and

[20:43] grenade launchers, but rice, pasta, and

[20:46] vegetables. Food deprivation threatens

[20:48] the lives of 2 million Somali. But the

[20:50] young men who steal food from women and

[20:52] children are wellfed, fashionably

[20:55] dressed, and growing wealthy.

[20:57] >> Cheaper, more plentiful food here in

[21:00] what's left of the capital is beginning

[21:02] to make a difference for some lucky

[21:03] ones. And as aid starts to flow into the

[21:06] country, the world hopes there will be

[21:08] many more. Bob Arnot, CBS News. faces.

[21:19] >> I feel energetic and ready to face the

[21:22] day.

[21:22] >> Zane Hunter discovers breakfast with

[21:24] grape nuts for a week.

[21:26] >> I love grape nuts. It kept me going the

[21:28] whole morning.

[21:29] >> Grape nuts, the fat-free natural energy

[21:31] source.

[21:32] >> It just had a real crunchy, nutty,

[21:34] different kind of flavor that that

[21:36] stayed fresh. Old cereal's out. Grape

[21:38] nuts is in. Breakfast with Postg Grape

[21:41] Nut cereal helps keep you going strong

[21:43] all morning long.

[21:44] >> You just try it for a week and this will

[21:46] become your new cereal. [snorts]

[21:49] >> When I hear the rain, I know I'm in for

[21:51] it. The dampness, the chill, arthritis

[21:55] pain seems to come from every joint in

[21:57] my body. For pain like this now, instead

[22:00] of aspirin, I take Advil. Advil contains

[22:02] the same medicine my doctor often

[22:04] prescribes for arthritis pain. In fact,

[22:06] for minor arthritis pain, doctors

[22:08] recommend Advil most. With Advil, I'm on

[22:12] my way. Advil tablets and caplets.

[22:15] Advanced medicine for pain.

[22:19] After examining, testing, it's [music] a

[22:21] fact. You can buy new Preparation

[22:23] Hydrocortisone cream with the maximum

[22:25] strength available without a

[22:27] prescription [music] to relieve problem

[22:28] itch. New Preparation Hydrocortisone

[22:31] Cream. Prescription strength without a

[22:33] [music] prescription.

[22:34] >> Oh, great. Just what my stomach needs.

[22:35] Here comes my obnoxious boss.

[22:39] >> Hi, Daddy.

[22:40] >> Oh, boy.

[22:41] >> Better make it mocks cuz extra strength

[22:43] Mocks [music] Plus neutralizes more acid

[22:46] than Milanta. So you better make it

[22:48] Mocks.

[22:49] >> One of the fiercest hurricanes to ever

[22:50] [music] hit the United States. Hurricane

[22:52] Andrew. Continuing coverage live from

[22:54] the Gulf Coast tomorrow on CBS This

[22:56] Morning [music] with Harry Smith and

[22:57] Paula.

[23:01] >> Woody Allen and Mia Pharaoh have a date

[23:03] tomorrow in court. It is a child custody

[23:06] hearing in New York and today the judge

[23:07] ruled the cameras will not be allowed.

[23:10] Still, viewers who want a glimpse of

[23:11] Allen's private world can look for it in

[23:13] his upcoming movie. Sydney Canard in

[23:16] Hollywood has a preview.

[23:18] >> I want to ask you something, professor.

[23:20] Do you seduce all your students?

[23:22] >> Watching Woody Allen's new movie leaves

[23:24] the audience feeling as if it has been

[23:26] placed squarely in the filmmaker's

[23:28] offscreen bedroom. Some kind of six

[23:30] sense said that you were that you were

[23:32] not stable, but you on the surface you

[23:34] were, but now that we're having all

[23:35] kinds of problems, you you you're you're

[23:37] not stable. You were on the surface, but

[23:39] not really. In this movie, Art is truly

[23:42] imitating life. The film take is a

[23:44] breakup between Allan and longtime

[23:46] companion Mia Pharaoh with Allan smitten

[23:48] by a young college girl. In real life,

[23:51] there's an Alan Pharaoh split with Allan

[23:53] admitting he's in love with Pharaoh's

[23:54] 21-year-old adopted daughter. The

[23:57] true-to-life scandal has left Hollywood

[23:59] wondering about the effect on Allen's

[24:01] career.

[24:01] >> I think Woody Allen has big problems

[24:04] right now. He will have a difficult time

[24:06] with an audience finding his films funny

[24:10] from now on.

[24:11] >> But will movie goers close the curtain

[24:13] completely on Allen for this sex scandal

[24:15] that is captivating America? Hollywood

[24:18] history record some unforgiving

[24:20] audiences. Charlie Chaplan married two

[24:22] different 16-year-olds and was later

[24:25] prosecuted on a morals charge and

[24:27] paternity lawsuit. He was exiled in

[24:29] Switzerland. In the case of Woody Allen,

[24:32] colleagues are rallying to his defense.

[24:34] >> He's generally concerned with with

[24:35] ethics and morality and and where do you

[24:38] draw the line and uh how do you lead a

[24:39] good life?

[24:40] >> Movie goers also have to contend with

[24:42] Pharaoh's accusation that Allen is a

[24:44] child molester.

[24:45] >> I've known him for 30 years. The idea,

[24:49] the phrase makes his flesh crawl. I

[24:52] can't imagine anything that would make

[24:55] it crawl more short of kissing Pat

[24:58] Buchanan on the mouth.

[25:00] >> Still, Hollywood has the jitters. The

[25:02] studio has canled the press store for

[25:04] Allen's next movie, fearing questions

[25:06] about the scandal would overshadow the

[25:08] film. But seizing on the attention, the

[25:11] studio announced today that the movie

[25:12] would be released next month, a week

[25:15] earlier than expected. Sydney Canard,

[25:18] CBS News Hollywood. And that's it from

[25:21] New York for tonight. Dan Rather will be

[25:23] back in a moment from Florida.

[25:35] Draw from the facts.

[25:37] There's a way to maintain regularity

[25:41] without drugs.

[25:43] It [music] starts here. A high-fiber

[25:46] diet, which can include Kellogg's All

[25:48] Brand, may give you the fiber you need

[25:50] for drug-free [music]

[25:51] regularity.

[25:53] See the recipe on the box for another

[25:55] way to enjoy Kellogg's Allbrand. All

[25:58] brand [music] muffins, all that fiber,

[26:00] all that great taste.

[26:03] >> I drink B because

[26:04] >> Hey, I Hey, I think it's good for me. It

[26:06] makes me pepper.

[26:07] >> You [music] got your vitamin A, your

[26:08] vitamin C. I like it because it has

[26:10] those beta carotines in it.

[26:11] >> What's that word?

[26:12] >> Beta sauce.

[26:13] >> Pardon?

[26:14] >> What? Better carotene.

[26:16] >> Call me crazy, but I think it's

[26:18] delicious.

[26:19] >> 35 calories.

[26:21] >> Really?

[26:22] >> 35?

[26:23] >> Yes.

[26:23] >> It's a kick.

[26:25] >> I love you.

[26:26] >> VA.

[26:26] >> Va keeps me thin.

[26:28] >> It's zippy kind of thing. A zippy thing.

[26:34] >> Before [music] we ship a new Buick

[26:36] Lasaber, it must meet an international

[26:39] standard of excellence. If it fails to

[26:41] meet a single electrical [music] check,

[26:44] if the aim of a headlight isn't true, if

[26:46] the seams are not measured to the

[26:48] millimeter, [music] we don't ship it.

[26:51] So, if you buy a Buick Lasaber for its

[26:53] quality, you won't be missing the boat.

[26:56] [music] Even though it doesn't come by

[26:59] boat.

[27:01] [music]

[27:03] Tears of pain, tears of joy. But when

[27:07] your eyes are dry, soothe them with the

[27:22] bacteria that cause denture odor.

[27:26] [music] kills those odorcausing bacteria

[27:35] >> Live now from Florida, our old friend

[27:37] and one of the world's great hurricane

[27:38] experts, Dr. Neil Frank is standing by

[27:40] at Channel 11 Houston. Dr. Frank, what

[27:42] can we expect next?

[27:43] >> Well, Dan, everybody anticipates as the

[27:45] storm is going to turn to the northwest.

[27:47] If that turn takes place in the next

[27:49] couple of hours, then it could be

[27:51] Alabama, Mississippi. If the turn is

[27:53] delayed, then we're talking about

[27:55] Louisiana and maybe even the upper Texas

[27:57] coast. So, we're watching it very

[27:58] carefully.

[27:59] >> And it's top sustained winds at the

[28:01] moment are

[28:03] >> 140 mph and it could gather some more

[28:05] strength.

[28:07] Thanks, Dr. Neil Frank. Our thanks to

[28:09] also the friends at AT&T, American

[28:12] Telephone and Telegraph, who've been so

[28:14] terrific to us and for us today. Dan
