[0:00] at 11 here. What else has been done to

[0:02] several other homes and why police are

[0:05] now calling this a crime spree?

[0:06] >> Bruce, take us to that weather.

[0:08] >> Okay. Yeah, showers on the decrease.

[0:09] Maybe not totally done yet, but they are

[0:11] decreasing tonight. And there's a 7-day

[0:13] forecast. We're going to 70 on Saturday.

[0:16] >> Oh,

[0:16] >> not a bad deal.

[0:17] >> Pretty good.

[0:18] >> CBS Evening News up next.

[0:20] >> Good night.

[0:25] Tonight, the chairman of the Fed sees an

[0:27] end to this recession in just a few

[0:29] months. But look for unemployment to

[0:31] keep rising. I'm Jeff Gore. Also

[0:33] tonight, a mass exodus from Pakistan's

[0:36] SWAT valley. As many as a half a million

[0:39] start to flee, expecting a showdown

[0:41] between the Taliban and the Pakistani

[0:43] army. State attorneys general pressure

[0:45] Craigslist to clean up the website after

[0:47] it's linked to a high-profile murder

[0:49] case. and the high school phenom who's

[0:53] beating the boys at their own game.

[1:01] >> This is the CBS Evening News with Katie

[1:04] Kurrick.

[1:07] And good evening, Katie's on

[1:08] assignments. We begin tonight with the

[1:10] question everyone's asking. When will

[1:12] this recession end? The chairman of the

[1:14] Federal Reserve says the end is in sight

[1:17] now, telling Congress today he sees a

[1:19] turnaround later this year. But even if

[1:21] that happens, he said unemployment will

[1:23] keep rising. Here's Chip Reed.

[1:27] >> Fed Chairman Ben Bernani walked a fine

[1:30] line today, balancing hints of good news

[1:32] on the economy against signs of a long

[1:35] and painful recovery. We are hopeful

[1:37] that the very sharp decline we saw

[1:39] beginning last fall through early this

[1:41] year will moderate considerably uh in

[1:44] the near term and we'll see positive

[1:46] growth by the end of the year.

[1:48] >> He cited positive news on housing.

[1:50] Pending home sales were up 3.2% in

[1:52] March. That the housing market is

[1:54] beginning to stabilize. Consumer

[1:56] spending, he said, is also up 2.2% in

[1:59] the first quarter and it will get a

[2:01] boost in coming months, Bernani said,

[2:03] from the president's stimulus package.

[2:05] But the recovery will only gradually

[2:07] gain momentum, he warned. And with

[2:09] businesses nervous about hiring new

[2:11] workers, unemployment will remain high

[2:14] even after the recovery is well

[2:16] underway.

[2:17] >> We think that the unemployment rate will

[2:19] probably peak early in 2010 and then

[2:21] come down relatively slowly after that.

[2:24] >> Bernani defended the so-called stress

[2:26] tests that were delivered to 19 major

[2:29] banks today and will be publicly

[2:30] unveiled Thursday. He argued that

[2:33] transparency will restore confidence in

[2:35] the banks.

[2:36] >> That's a very important part of this

[2:37] whole process is letting people see what

[2:39] what is on the bank's balance sheets.

[2:40] >> Treasury Department sources say about 10

[2:42] of the banks will be ordered to raise

[2:44] more capital to make sure they can

[2:46] survive if the recession becomes even

[2:48] worse. If the banks can't raise the

[2:50] money on their own, the federal

[2:52] government has promised to back them up

[2:54] once again. Former Fed Governor Larry

[2:57] Meyer says it's necessary to make sure

[2:59] the banking system survives, but that

[3:01] doesn't mean taxpayers will be happy.

[3:03] >> If they tell us that uh uh a dozen or

[3:06] more banks need capital and that it more

[3:09] than exhausts the funds they have

[3:10] available, that'll be a very bad day for

[3:12] the markets.

[3:14] >> But Bernani says the stakes are so high

[3:16] on stabilizing the banks that failure to

[3:19] do so could stall this economic

[3:21] recovery. Jeff.

[3:22] >> All right, Chip Reed in Washington.

[3:24] Chip, thank you. Chairman Bernani

[3:25] mentioned the positive signs for the

[3:27] housing market and they are out there,

[3:29] but this slump is still far from over.

[3:32] Here's John Blackstone.

[3:34] A wrecking crew in Victorville,

[3:36] California today provides stark evidence

[3:38] of the collapse in housing. It would

[3:40] cost more for the developer to finish

[3:42] these 17 new houses and sell them than

[3:45] it would to just tear them down. So, the

[3:48] bank called in bulldozers. With

[3:50] California house prices falling by 50%

[3:53] or more, those who bought during the

[3:55] bubble are in big trouble. Last

[3:57] November, MountainHouse, a new planned

[3:59] community 60 mi east of San Francisco,

[4:02] became notorious as a place where 90% of

[4:05] the 3,000 homeowners owed more than

[4:08] their houses were worth. But now, the

[4:10] wave of foreclosures is attracting new

[4:13] buyers.

[4:14] >> And so, we just waited and waited and

[4:16] sure enough, the bubble burst. Victoria

[4:19] Perry and her husband bought a five

[4:20] bedroomedroom fourbath house in January.

[4:23] >> You paid about 400 or so.

[4:25] >> 405. Yeah. Yeah.

[4:26] >> For a house that somebody else paid

[4:28] almost 800 for.

[4:29] >> Exactly.

[4:30] >> Across the country, firsttime buyers are

[4:32] fueling the beginnings of a turnaround.

[4:34] In the first quarter of this year, they

[4:36] accounted for 65% of existing home

[4:38] sales. A 41% increase over last year.

[4:42] People coming in now are getting

[4:43] bargains.

[4:44] >> Sure. Yes, they are. They're getting a

[4:46] good deal. First-time buyers like

[4:48] Barbara Kaiser are seen by economists as

[4:51] the potential leading edge of a

[4:52] turnaround in the housing market.

[4:54] >> A few years ago, we'll never own a

[4:56] house.

[4:57] >> Never. We wouldn't have bought a house

[4:58] at all. A few years ago, we couldn't

[5:00] afford it and it would have been smarter

[5:01] to rent. So, right now, it's really

[5:03] smart time to buy.

[5:05] >> In Mountain House, 66 homes sold in the

[5:07] first quarter of this year, almost

[5:09] triple the 24 that sold in the same

[5:11] period a year ago. It's a glimmer of

[5:14] hope also seen in other communities. In

[5:16] Sacramento, sales are up by 45% over

[5:20] this time last year. In Las Vegas, up by

[5:22] 35%.

[5:24] But as the destruction in Victorville

[5:26] dramatically shows, not everyone is

[5:28] convinced the worst is over. John

[5:31] Blackstone, CBS News, Mountain House,

[5:32] California.

[5:34] >> In other news tonight, President Obama

[5:35] welcomes the leaders of Pakistan and

[5:37] Afghanistan to the White House tomorrow.

[5:39] Their meeting comes as Pakistan's

[5:41] military prepares for a showdown with

[5:43] the Taliban in the Swat Valley. More now

[5:46] from our chief foreign affairs

[5:47] correspondent, Larara Logan, who's just

[5:49] back from Pakistan.

[5:53] >> Residents are packing up and fleeing the

[5:55] Swat Valley. The government preparing to

[5:57] shelter up to half a million people. A

[6:00] sure sign the situation is getting

[6:02] worse, not better. It may also mean the

[6:04] Pakistani army is finally doing what the

[6:07] US wants,

[6:09] taking on the Taliban and al-Qaeda

[6:11] militants who now control that area.

[6:14] That issue sure to be top of the agenda

[6:16] tomorrow when three presidents meet.

[6:18] Barack Obama's greatest foreign policy

[6:21] challenge so far in the hands of these

[6:23] two men. Pakistan's Asali Zadari and

[6:26] Afghanistan's Hammed Kazai.

[6:28] >> He might get warm handshakes. Uh but can

[6:33] uh the men deliver and deliver

[6:35] adequately? It is far from clear. The US

[6:38] needs Zadari to reign in the militants

[6:41] and guarantee his nation's nuclear

[6:43] weapons are safe from terrorist hands.

[6:45] But the US is dealing with a weak

[6:47] president in a country more accustomed

[6:49] to military dictatorships.

[6:51] >> In general, he's not very popular.

[6:54] >> Like many Pakistanis, Fuzier say

[6:57] supports the president's party but not

[6:59] the man himself. One thing that we do

[7:02] not want is for any powerful country,

[7:05] especially United States, to undermine

[7:08] our democracy.

[7:09] >> Pakistanis do feel undermined by recent

[7:11] public statements from the US.

[7:13] >> The civilian government there right now

[7:17] is very fragile.

[7:18] >> That may be true, but saying it hasn't

[7:20] made President Zadari any stronger as he

[7:23] faces critics in Washington and at home.

[7:26] Here in the poorest areas of the

[7:28] capital, Islamabad, people feel

[7:30] abandoned by the government. Even though

[7:32] many of them voted for President Zadari

[7:34] and his party, they say he's done

[7:36] nothing for them.

[7:38] >> Across the border in Afghanistan, many

[7:41] feel the same way about President Kazai.

[7:43] he has turned into uh somebody which is

[7:47] shown the ultimate sense of

[7:50] irresponsibility towards the the needs

[7:54] uh in the feelings of the people

[7:56] >> today in Washington Kazai asserted his

[7:58] independence from his US backers mindful

[8:01] of his audience at home

[8:03] >> money can't buy you love as you say it

[8:06] in America and force wouldn't buy you

[8:08] obedience no matter how much it is

[8:11] >> President Obama's challenge How to get

[8:13] results without alienating two key US

[8:16] allies. Jeff,

[8:17] >> Laura Logan tonight. Laura, thank you.

[8:18] Now, the latest on the controversy

[8:20] surrounding Craigslist. With more than

[8:22] 50 million users a month, there is great

[8:24] concern over how that website is

[8:26] managed. And today, state's attorneys

[8:28] general met with company officials to

[8:30] get the popular online classified

[8:31] network to clean up its sex related

[8:34] postings. One of those ads has been

[8:36] linked to a recent high-profile murder.

[8:38] Kelly Wallace has more.

[8:40] In a closed meeting inside this

[8:42] Manhattan office building, three

[8:44] attorneys general pressed lawyers from

[8:46] Craigslist to permanently remove the

[8:48] site's controversial erotic services

[8:51] section.

[8:52] >> No question, absolutely none, that

[8:55] Craigslist is operating an online

[8:58] brothel here. We're going after them to

[9:01] persuade them they ought to do the right

[9:03] thing, cooperate, and eliminate these

[9:04] ads. South Carolina's attorney general

[9:06] went further, saying, "Remove all

[9:09] prostitution ads and pornography in 10

[9:11] days or he'll prosecute the executives

[9:14] of Craigslist.

[9:15] >> It is nothing but filth. It is

[9:17] advertisement for prostitution."

[9:19] >> But experts say it's unlikely Craigslist

[9:22] can be held criminally liable. Current

[9:24] federal law grants immunity to web

[9:27] operators like Craigslist for content on

[9:29] their site they did not create. simply

[9:32] because Craigslist knew there was bad

[9:34] behavior going on online that somehow

[9:36] makes them culpable. Well, perhaps in a

[9:39] moral sense, and the attorneys general

[9:40] are free to argue that, but what they

[9:42] can't do is argue that there is some

[9:44] kind of legal violation here.

[9:46] >> The pressure on the classified online

[9:48] site intensified after Philip Maroff was

[9:51] accused of robbing two women and killing

[9:53] another, all of whom he met on

[9:55] Craigslist. In a statement, Craigslist

[9:58] CEO said of today's meeting, "We are

[10:00] optimistic that our shared concerns can

[10:03] be addressed without compromising free

[10:05] speech." In November, Craigslist, at the

[10:08] urging of 40 attorneys general, began

[10:10] requiring a working phone number and

[10:12] credit card to advertise erotic

[10:14] services. But the state's top

[10:16] prosecutors today demanded Craigslist

[10:18] take tougher action in days, not months.

[10:22] Kelly Wallace, CBS News, New York.

[10:24] Coming up next on the CBS Evening News,

[10:26] a horrible crime destroyed her face.

[10:29] We'll show you the remarkable results of

[10:31] America's first ever face transplant.

[10:47] They tickle, they tease, and you sneeze.

[10:52] Maybe it's time to ask your doctor about

[10:54] Singular. While many allergy medicines

[10:56] block histamine, Singular blocks

[10:58] lucotrien, an underlying cause of nasal

[11:01] allergy symptoms. And that's how

[11:03] Singular works differently. One pill

[11:05] once a day. Side effects are generally

[11:08] mild and vary by age and may include

[11:10] headache, ear infection, sore throat,

[11:12] and upper respiratory infection.

[11:14] Singular, a different way to treat

[11:16] allergies.

[11:18] Mom was diagnosed with moderate

[11:20] Alzheimer's.

[11:22] It was tough news to hear.

[11:25] Everything changed.

[11:30] I didn't know what to do. Right about

[11:33] then, our doctor mentioned the Exalon

[11:35] patch. He said it releases medicine

[11:37] continuously for 24 hours. He said it

[11:40] could help with her cognition, which

[11:42] includes things like memory, reasoning,

[11:44] communicating, and understanding. The

[11:46] most common side effects of Exalon patch

[11:48] are nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. The

[11:51] likelihood and severity of these side

[11:52] effects may increase as the dose

[11:54] increases. Patients may experience loss

[11:56] of appetite or weight. Patients who

[11:58] weigh less than 110 lbs may experience

[12:00] more side effects. People at risk for

[12:02] stomach ulcers or who take certain other

[12:04] medicine should talk to their doctor

[12:06] because serious stomach problems such as

[12:08] bleeding may worsen.

[12:09] >> Mom's diagnosis was hard to hear, but

[12:11] there's something I can do.

[12:13] >> Ask your doctor about the Exalon patch.

[12:15] Visit excelonpatch.com to learn more.

[12:18] >> I'm Mark Goldston, chairman and CEO of

[12:20] NetZero. Here's a plan for America's

[12:22] broadband users to save 16 billion a

[12:25] year and $300 individually. Switch to

[12:28] Netzero dialup at95 per month. Call 1800

[12:31] Netzero or go to netzero.com.

[12:35] >> It's a revolution in pain relief.

[12:37] >> The new Icy Hot Medicated Roll. Take

[12:39] what you need for shoulders, backs,

[12:41] joints, even arthritis. Medicated relief

[12:44] gets icy to dull pain hot to relax it

[12:46] away. The new icy hot medicated roll.

[12:48] >> With the roll, pain's under control.

[12:50] >> Okay, maybe it was my fault.

[12:52] >> She told me to kill the weeds.

[12:53] >> And you did along with the grass.

[12:55] >> I used the wrong stuff.

[12:56] >> Oh, there were dead spots everywhere.

[12:59] >> This is the right stuff. Orthoede Begone

[13:01] Max. It kills weeds down to the root.

[13:04] Even the tough ones like dandelion and

[13:05] crabrass.

[13:06] >> Unlike that other stuff, it won't kill

[13:08] the grass. Ortho guarantees it. Kill the

[13:11] weeds, not the lawn.

[13:13] >> Weeds, not lawn.

[13:15] >> Got it.

[13:17] >> Ortho, weed begun, Max.

[13:18] >> Defend what's yours.

[13:21] >> The H1N1 flu has claimed a second life

[13:23] here in the US. Texas health officials

[13:26] can report a woman in her mid30s, died

[13:28] earlier this week. They say she did have

[13:30] underlying health problems, but gave no

[13:33] details. Today, the CDC confirmed more

[13:35] than 400 flu cases in 38 states. and the

[13:38] Navy canled the June 1st deployment of

[13:40] an amphibious ship, the Debuke, based in

[13:43] San Diego. There is one confirmed case

[13:45] on the ship and 50 others suspected.

[13:47] Meanwhile, US health officials are no

[13:49] longer recommending that schools close

[13:51] because of the flu now that the virus

[13:53] has turned out to be milder than

[13:55] initially feared. Now, a very different

[13:57] medical story. The first ever face

[14:00] transplant in this country. Today, we

[14:02] saw and heard from that patient for the

[14:04] first time. Michelle Miller has the

[14:06] story. But this warning, some of these

[14:08] images are graphic.

[14:11] >> Five years ago, Connie Culp was a

[14:13] striking, energetic mother of two. Then

[14:16] one night, her husband tried to end it

[14:18] all. He pointed a shotgun at her and

[14:21] pulled the trigger. The blast blew away

[14:23] her nose, her upper jaw, and left her

[14:26] almost blind.

[14:27] >> Could not breathe through her nose,

[14:29] could not smell, could not at least

[14:31] sense aroma. Her husband was in jail,

[14:34] but after 30 plastic surgeries, she was

[14:36] confined to home with little help of

[14:38] leading a normal life.

[14:40] >> Society have rejected her. She was

[14:43] called names and children were afraid of

[14:45] her

[14:46] >> until last December when a team of eight

[14:49] surgeons at the Cleveland Clinic began a

[14:51] 22-hour operation to replace 80% of her

[14:54] face. The cost for all of her medical

[14:56] care, an estimated $1 million. Though

[15:00] she didn't have to pay for it. First,

[15:02] doctors removed the face of the donor

[15:04] who had been declared brain dead. And

[15:06] through micro surgery, the team

[15:08] connected Conniey's veins, arteries, and

[15:10] nerves to the tissue, rebuilding the

[15:12] bones to support it all.

[15:14] >> Connie remained anonymous until today

[15:17] when she revealed her new face

[15:20] >> and her old sense of humor.

[15:22] >> I don't need my nose.

[15:25] >> With her new nose, she's recovered her

[15:27] sense of smell. Connie can also now eat

[15:30] solid food, drink without a straw, and

[15:33] breathe on her own.

[15:35] >> She eats hamburgers and enjoys her

[15:38] pizzas. She's drinking coffee from the

[15:41] cup.

[15:41] >> Like any transplant patient, Connie

[15:43] takes medication so her body doesn't

[15:45] reject the donor tissue. And she faces

[15:47] more surgery ahead. But today, she hopes

[15:50] her story is a lesson for everyone.

[15:53] >> Don't judge people that look the same as

[15:55] you do, cuz you never know. One day it

[15:58] might be all taken away.

[16:01] >> Michelle Miller, CBS News, New York.

[16:04] >> Well, straight ahead here, journalists

[16:06] put aside competition to help solve the

[16:08] murder of a colleague killed doing his

[16:10] job.

[16:15] >> My grandkids are a great reason for me

[16:17] to keep my bones strong. But even with

[16:19] calcium, vitamin D, and exercise, I

[16:21] still got osteoporosis. I never thought

[16:23] I could do more than stop my bone loss.

[16:25] And then my doctor told me I could with

[16:27] once monthly Bonva. Bonva works with

[16:30] your body to help stop and reverse bone

[16:32] loss. Studies show after one year on

[16:35] Bonva, nine out of 10 women stopped and

[16:37] reverse their bone loss. I know I did.

[16:40] Don't take Bonva if you have low blood

[16:41] calcium, severe kidney disease, or can't

[16:43] sit or stand for at least 1 hour. Follow

[16:45] dosing instructions carefully. Stop

[16:47] taking Bonva and tell your doctor if you

[16:48] have difficult or painful swallowing,

[16:50] chest pain, or severe or continuing

[16:52] heartburn, as these may be signs of

[16:53] serious upper digestive problems. If jaw

[16:55] problems or severe bone, joint, and or

[16:58] muscle pain develop, tell your doctor.

[16:59] >> I've got this one body and this one

[17:01] life, so I wanted to stop my bone loss,

[17:04] but I did more. I reversed it with

[17:06] Bonva. Ask your doctor if Bonva can help

[17:08] you stop losing and start reversing.

[17:11] >> For a free trial offer, call 1800 for

[17:13] Bonva.

[17:15] >> Honey, we've got itches.

[17:17] >> Is it plug bite, allergy, rash, poison?

[17:21] >> The only medicine you need is licane. It

[17:23] stops itching fast, kills germs, too.

[17:26] One and only Lakane, the every itch

[17:28] fighter.

[17:32] the freshness and freedom of the

[17:34] outdoors for your indoor cat. Specially

[17:37] formulated to promote healthy weight and

[17:39] hairball control. Frisky's indoor wet

[17:41] cat food. Feed the senses.

[17:44] >> It's clear we need more energy from all

[17:47] sources. And most Americans agree we

[17:49] need more domestic oil and natural gas.

[17:51] But does that mean you'll see more oil

[17:53] and gas platforms? Well, with advanced

[17:56] subsidy technology, one platform can now

[17:59] gather oil from wells 40 m away.

[18:03] So, what used to take many just a few

[18:04] years ago now takes only one. That's

[18:07] more of the oil and natural gas we need

[18:10] from less than meets the eye. Log on to

[18:12] learn more.

[18:14] >> She's losing her battle against nasal

[18:16] allergies, but we found a way TO FIGHT

[18:18] IT. OMNIS TO THE NOSE.

[18:21] >> Omaris works differently than many other

[18:23] allergy medications. Omnis fights nasal

[18:26] allergy symptoms that occur from

[18:27] allergic inflammation. Relieve those

[18:30] symptoms with Omnis. Side effects may

[18:32] include headache, nose bleed, and sore

[18:34] throat. Mission accomplished.

[18:36] Oh, incoming. Ask your doctor about

[18:38] Omnis. In the battle against nasal

[18:40] allergy symptoms, Omnerys combats the

[18:43] cause.

[18:45] In Elama County, California, tomorrow,

[18:47] two men will be arraigned for allegedly

[18:48] ordering the murder of journalist Chanty

[18:50] Bailey. The case was cold until a group

[18:53] of reporters banded together to conduct

[18:55] their own investigation. Here once again

[18:58] is John Blackstone.

[19:00] >> When Chanty Bailey was gunned down in

[19:02] Oakland, California nearly two years

[19:04] ago, his killing shook up his city and

[19:08] his profession.

[19:09] >> The reporter got his head blown off.

[19:11] It's that simple. Bailey was editor of

[19:13] the Weekly Oakland Post. He was

[19:15] investigating a black Muslim splinter

[19:18] group allegedly using a local bakery as

[19:20] a front for criminal activities when he

[19:22] was shot.

[19:23] >> You can't let that go unanswered because

[19:25] what happens to the next reporter who's

[19:27] investigating a story that someone

[19:28] doesn't want him to report.

[19:30] >> But at a time when newsrooms and news

[19:33] budgets are shrinking, some feared

[19:35] Chanty Bailey's work might go

[19:37] unfinished. So with some foundation

[19:40] support, two dozen news organizations

[19:43] agreed somewhat reluctantly to

[19:45] collaborate.

[19:46] >> Collaboration was something we shied

[19:48] away from really because it was get the

[19:50] story, get it first, and scoop somebody.

[19:53] >> The reporters who joined forces on the

[19:55] Chanty Bailey project admit putting

[19:57] aside competition wasn't always easy.

[20:00] >> And if you have secret sources,

[20:03] are you going to share them with all the

[20:05] people in this room?

[20:07] Well, yeah, but that was hard.

[20:09] >> There's been a few chairs thrown at.

[20:11] >> Their work was low budget. Two of the

[20:14] three lead reporters didn't have jobs.

[20:16] Bob Butler laid off from radio. Mary

[20:18] Fricker retired. But on story after

[20:21] story, they pressed the police

[20:23] investigation. Their reporting revealed

[20:26] links between the lead detective on the

[20:28] case and the black Muslim group's

[20:30] leader, Ysef Bay. Last month, the

[20:32] detective was suspended. The big

[20:35] breakthrough came when the reporters

[20:37] obtained a secretly recorded jailhouse

[20:39] video of Bae and found something

[20:42] detectives had missed.

[20:45] >> They heard Ba whispering he had the gun

[20:48] used to kill Bailey.

[20:50] >> The gun I was used was in my closet.

[20:53] >> That admission became headline news.

[20:56] >> It gets the message out and it sends the

[20:58] message that investigative reporting is

[21:00] still alive. Finally, two years after

[21:02] the killing, Bay has been indicted for

[21:04] Chanty Bailey's murder. He'll be

[21:06] arraigned tomorrow. For the reporters,

[21:08] getting results became more important

[21:10] than getting a scoop. A team effort that

[21:13] would have made the slain journalist

[21:14] proud. John Blackstone, CBS News, San

[21:17] Francisco.

[21:18] >> In other news tonight, there aren't many

[21:20] guarantees in life, but the words here's

[21:22] Dom Deloise were a sure bet we were

[21:25] going to laugh. The muchloved comedian

[21:27] and actor died overnight in Santa

[21:29] Monica, California.

[21:34] >> Though he was often a second banana, Dom

[21:36] Deloise was always a ham.

[21:39] >> Okay, simmer down.

[21:41] >> His comic timing and generous frame made

[21:44] him a lovable favorite on Dean Martin's

[21:46] variety show and led to a career as a

[21:48] character actor in some of Hollywood's

[21:50] most memorable films.

[21:51] >> Not in THE FACE.

[21:55] Thank you.

[21:56] >> Deoise is most famous for playing the

[21:59] bumbling buddy of leading man Bert

[22:00] Reynolds. The duo made six films

[22:03] together, including the slapstick

[22:05] classic Cannonball Run.

[22:09] I am Captain Chaos.

[22:12] >> An avid foodie and amateur chef, Deloise

[22:15] penned two cookbooks.

[22:16] >> Most people wake up to an alarm clock. I

[22:17] would have got to the smell of food, you

[22:20] and once said of Hollywood that he'd

[22:22] rather be at home with 12 people around

[22:25] his table.

[22:28] >> Don Deloise was 75.

[22:37] >> Need extra income? See how some are

[22:39] putting their houses to work in show biz

[22:41] $15,000

[22:43] >> tomorrow on the CBS TV News with Katie

[22:45] Curr.

[22:47] >> I'm Lindy. And I'm Joanie. We've been

[22:49] best friends since we were two. We've

[22:51] always been alike. We even both have

[22:53] osteoporosis, but we're active,

[22:55] especially when we vacation. So, when I

[22:57] heard about Reclass, the only once a

[22:59] year IV osteoporosis treatment, I called

[23:02] Joanie. My doctor said Reclast helps

[23:04] restrengthen our bones to help make them

[23:07] resistant to fracture for 12 whole

[23:09] months. And Reclast is approved to help

[23:11] protect from fracture in more places,

[23:14] hip, spine, even other bones.

[23:16] >> You should not take Reclast if you're on

[23:17] Zometa. have low blood calcium, kidney

[23:19] problems, or you're pregnant, plan to

[23:21] become pregnant or nursing. Take calcium

[23:23] and vitamin D daily. Tell your doctor if

[23:25] you develop severe muscle, bone, or

[23:27] joint pain, or if you have dental

[23:28] problems, as rarely jaw problems have

[23:30] been reported. The most common side

[23:32] effects include flu-l like symptoms,

[23:33] fever, muscle, or joint pain, and

[23:35] headache.

[23:35] >> Nothing strengthens you like an old

[23:37] friendship. But when it comes to our

[23:39] bones, we both look to reclass. You've

[23:41] got to ask your doctor. Once a year,

[23:43] reclass year-long protection for

[23:45] onthe-go women.

[23:48] I absolutely love playing badminton.

[23:52] Started playing after 30 years again.

[23:54] It's wonderful. It keeps me young. My

[23:56] shoulder sometimes hurts and my doctor

[23:59] said I was overusing my knees. And I

[24:01] said, "Well, that's not the answer I

[24:02] want to hear." A leave makes me painfree

[24:05] so I can move on the court. And you

[24:07] can't play this game if you can't move

[24:08] on the court and get to the bird and

[24:10] return it. I'm Ann Marie Dano and with a

[24:13] leave I'll never stop playing bad

[24:15] mitten.

[25:20] >> At 11 tonight, a local family's cars

[25:22] covered in hateful graffiti.

[25:24] >> Why they're worried it all stems from

[25:25] trouble at their daughter's school. At

[25:27] 11,

[25:30] >> it was a power lunch in a burger joint.

[25:33] >> I'm going to have a Swiss cheeseburger,

[25:35] jalapeno peppers, and do you put ketchup

[25:37] on or do we do that ourselves? I'm going

[25:39] to have a uh just a your basic cheddar

[25:42] cheeseburger.

[25:44] >> Medium. Well,

[25:46] >> the president today treated the vice

[25:48] president to lunch at a place called

[25:49] Ray's Hellburger in Virginia. President

[25:52] had his burger with cheddar as you

[25:54] heard. The vice president Swiss. They

[25:56] shared an order of cheesy potato puffs.

[25:59] And yes, the president left a tip, a

[26:01] portrait of his favorite predecessor,

[26:04] Abe Lincoln.

[26:06] Finally tonight, if there's anything as

[26:07] American as hamburgers, it's baseball.

[26:10] Sandra Hughes tonight has the story of a

[26:12] trailblazing high school pitcher.

[26:16] >> When the Burbank High School baseball

[26:18] team hits the locker room,

[26:21] >> the starting pitcher changes in the

[26:23] snack bar.

[26:24] >> ONE, TWO, THREE.

[26:26] >> THERE are some teams that when they

[26:28] realize there's a girl pitching, they

[26:30] kind of step up their swagger a little

[26:31] bit, you know, and they're like, "What

[26:33] is this, a joke?

[26:37] By the third strikeout in a row,

[26:40] >> no one's laughing at 5'2 in Marty

[26:44] Simmonelli

[26:45] >> on the mound. You know, it doesn't

[26:46] matter your height. Just got to hit your

[26:48] spots.

[26:48] >> You feel like you're 10 ft tall out

[26:50] there on the mound.

[26:51] >> Yeah.

[26:51] >> Just hit the target.

[26:52] >> Her dad Gary has guided every missile.

[26:55] >> Strike.

[26:57] >> YAY. GO, MARTY. GO. Ever since she was

[27:01] big enough to hold a bat and ball in

[27:04] little league, she had more than 500

[27:06] strikeouts.

[27:09] >> Already this season, 35 strikeouts in

[27:12] the first six games. How many different

[27:15] pitches do you have?

[27:17] >> I have about like eight different ones.

[27:18] I have my fast ball, curve ball, slider,

[27:21] two different kinds of cutters, two

[27:22] different kinds of palm balls, and a

[27:23] change up.

[27:24] >> Most major league players have three

[27:27] pitches.

[27:29] 35 years ago, a lawsuit forced Little

[27:32] League to let girls play baseball. In

[27:34] response, the organization also created

[27:36] a separate league of their own for

[27:38] softball. Today, 100,000 girls play

[27:41] Little League baseball. But far more,

[27:43] 360,000

[27:45] play softball.

[27:46] >> And after age 12, the message is clear.

[27:51] >> Boys play baseball.

[27:55] >> Girls play softball. Marty wasn't

[27:58] listening.

[27:59] >> Did you ever think about going into

[28:01] softball? Never. Everyone always asked

[28:03] me that. I would never be a pitcher.

[28:05] It's so awkward to me. It's not the

[28:07] right motion to me.

[28:08] >> An 11in softball is pitched underhand. A

[28:12] baseball 2 in smaller is pitched

[28:14] overhand.

[28:16] >> Calling softball the same as baseball is

[28:19] like calling tennis the same as ping

[28:20] pong.

[28:22] In Japan, where females of all ages play

[28:25] America's pastime,

[28:28] >> Marty won most valuable pitcher in the

[28:30] Women's World Cup. Back home, she's

[28:33] hoping being best in the world is good

[28:35] enough to stay in the game in high

[28:38] school, college, and beyond. Sandra
