>> the short answer is no. syria is not a super power and what we've seen is when they're trying to put down their -- they am mass all their forces in one place and they don't have enough men or material to be everywhere at once. they are not likely to run out of material there. the question is how much can the rebels do. as we heard earlier, the government has cut off the city and there are citizens who can't get bread and gasoline. and the rebels seem determined to fight it out. >> and still no indications, really no i guess real clarity on an end in sight. >> in fact now. and this is the stunning thing. to be honest, as cruel and as ruth this will as this war has been up until now, it is mystifying to me why the rebels would try will this inside a crowded urban area. i mean, if you're trying to be a force for good, do you really want to draw civilians into this kind of blood shed? nothing outside the world is stopping it, weapons are coming in it's an open secret that weapons and money are being smuggled in. the people with guns are determined to keep fighting and no matter where you are, when the men with guns want to fight, no one can stop them. >> so the resources are endless. something else will have to intervene. >> or the rebels will -- the government is well supplied. the rebels could conceivably run out of men or material. but they he are still being supplied and the whole country is being boiled like a caldron. >> here we are at 16 months in and the numbers are sizable every day. today 100. >> and it could get a whole lot worse. this is a city of 3 million to 4 million people. the blood shed could be in-calculable. >> jonathan, thank you so much. this, an olympic shocker. particularly for michael phelps and his fans. we'll be going to london live to update you. and if you do have to go out today, you can continue watching cnn there your mobile phone and also from your desktop. cnn.com/tv. a pretty stunning defeat for one of the most decorated owe himmi himmi owe limpiance. a rather surprising outcome. ped droe, this is exactly what the olympic games are all about. you never know. they're full of surprises. you can't presume you know what the outcome will be. >> you're right. and this is a major story because not only did phelps fail to win the gold, he missed out a medal all together. so ryan lochte pretty much took michael back to school and taught him a lesson. he told michael phelps in the pool that he's got to step up his game if he's going to have a chance of picking up some titles here in london over the next ten days. he was like dynamite out there in the aquatic center. he led from start to pin finish. and phelps was fourth. brazil got the silver. japan with the bronze. it's a case of michael pick up the pieces and trying to figure out what went wrong in the pool. >> and i wonder for michael phelps who has quite the litany of races that he'll be involved in, if he would be reflecting on the what went wrong or if it's a matter of focusing on, okay, the next race. >> exactly. i think you forget about what happened. kind of like when you play golf. if you have a bad hole, you forget about it and you move on. up next he has to focus on his next goal getting back in there and going for a medal. he needs to get on the podium in the next event he's into raise his confidence. we spoke before the race and we talked about the fact that he just squeezed into the final. was he saving energy, was he actually struggling. the answer is he just wasn't fast enough. so was just the medley, is he going to be faster in other disciplines? michael phelps will come out and compete, no doubt about it, but right now, he's not looking like the fastest guy in the water. >> so is it a friendly rivalry? you've heard they're good friends and then you've also heard they motivate one another in kind of a more competitive way. so can you have both? which is it? >> well, i can tell you that when you spend as much time as they do together in the kind of competitive environment, i'm sure they have good days and bad days. rate now i think if you ask michael phelps if lochte is miss his best friend, he would say no, he just beat me. but they have mutual respect for each other and i think that they are decent friends.just beat me. but they have mutual respect for each other and i think that they are decent friends. but can you you be that close to someone you want to beat? i've talked to roernlg fger fed about that and he said we're this close, but when we're in competiti competition, i want to beat that guy more than anyone else. so i think it's tough to be great friends when you're out there going for gold. >> and serena and venus. they're sister, but they are competitors and the blood thing goes on the sidelines. so one more time, lochte winning his first gold. michael phelps does not medal at all. but there are more. meantime, michelle bap obam leeing the white house delegate and she had front row seat for serena williams' victory. sitting in the family box for the match. and she was seen chatting with willi williams' steer sister. williams gave the first lady a thumbs up to say hello and then met with mrs. obama after the victory. track and field or athletics is one of the most watched olympic sporting events. and an olympian who won two gold also happens to be my father. he's now 87 years old. he's a bit fragile these days in a wheelchair, but nothing will stop him from heading to london tomorrow, 64 years after winning the 800 meters 4 by 400 relay and brochbs in tnze in the 400 . but 1948 diver san lee and harrison dillard will be there, as well. my brother and i will escort my dad who is very anxious to reunite with all of them. we call them the '48ers. they will all be making that journey across the pond to london and dad along with fellow olympians from that historic games are featured in the new york times in a beautiful potential gallery. you've got to check it out. you can hear them in their own words, as well, at n ychlnytime. how they continue to keep the olympic flame burning bright. they comfort crying kids. and sometimes they teach them how to read and how to write. i'm talking about nannies. not those olympians i was speaking of. but the nannies in many ways every single day are spreading cheer and love to a lot of these kids. they're almost like second mothers to many of them. a family portrait coming up. not those olympians i was [ "human" by the human league playing ] humans. we mean well, but we're imperfect creatures living in a beautifully imperfect world. it's amazing we've made it this far. maybe it's because when one of us messes up, someone else comes along to help out. that's the thing about humans. when things are at their worst, we're at our best. see how at libertymutual.com. liberty mutual insurance -- responsibility. what's your policy? in syria today, government forces are laying siege to the city of allepo. rebel activists say there was nonstop shelling in the city this morning and residents have been fleeing to safer neighborhoods. they also said at least 100 people have been killed in fighting around the country today. one of the upstate new york's most recognizable buildings has been reduced to rubble this morning. intentionally the 19 story building just outside rochester was taken down. it was built back in 1973 and has been used as a nursing facility. but the small elevators made it too difficult for nursing staff to care for over 200 residents. so they decided to bring it down and then they'll start all over again. you may remember the story of an elderly school bus monitor taking shots, criticism, terrible licks from a group of middle school bullies. the video sparked outrage after going viral. now we're happy to report that the woman, 68-year-old karen klein, is not retiring. she isn't quitting because of what happened, but simply in her view it it's just time to leave. they are the glue holding many professional families together. yet many times they go either unnoticed or undervalued. i'm talking about nannies. lisa sylvester finds out how they do it. >> reporter: they read to them. they play with them. they have a way of making everything better. in every way a loving mom. except they're not. >> my favorite is a lot of times people will tell me how much i look like the kids and i'll gee, well, that's on coincidence because i'm the nanny. >> reporter: they are the nanny, helping raise other people's children. erica has been with her current family for 2 1/2 years. >> one of our jokes is that there's the husband, and then there's the-shf she's his wife, his contemporary, modern working woman, and then i'm her 1950s housewife who takes care of kids and dinner and runs them to, you know, last minute doctor's appointments. >> reporter: but it's a job erica says she loves. and so does lori. >> they make you happy and they make you laugh. sometimes they give you a hard time, but then it's fun. >> reporter: she is herself a single mother. when she's working for ten hours a day, it means she's away from her own child. >> yes, i do, i do miss him a lot before i think about him and sometimes i call just to hear his voice. >> reporter: she works in tacoma mark, maryland. >> she's a really strong person. i don't know how she does it. >> reporter: the stories of nannies and their private lives are the subject of a "new york times" photo essay. >> these women are a huge part in some cases 50%, 80%, 30% in raising the children that they take care of and they are really mother figures. >> reporter: she started the project after watching the relationship between her own child and a nanny. >> i watched my baby fall in love with another woman. and it was an incredibly you powerful experience. it was unexpected and it was intense and it was complicated. it was also very beautiful. >> reporter: this is her than any from guatemala. she shs been a nanny for 16 years. >> for me it's like my own child. it's like -- a feel, i can't explain. >> reporter: there are estimated 1 million nannies in the u.s. and yet they often go unnoticed. >> a lot of nannies are immigrants and don't have the same rights necessarily and access to the same kind of services. and i think that they tonight g don't get the credit they deserve at all. >> i definitely think that people tend to look down on nannies.all. >> i definitely think that people tend to look down on nannies.>> i definitely think t people tend to look down on nannies. i've had people say things where whatever they were saying i could tell that what they meant was, so what are you going to be when you grow up? >> reporter: in an thatnannies n entrusted with their true treasure, their children. they get paid for what they do. but for the good ones, there's no measure for the love they give. >> lisa sylvester joining us live from washington. a lot of families feel like they couldn't do without those nannies. they really are a piece -- a member of the family. but it's not necessarily a reflection of families that are wealthy, is it? >> no, not necessarily. this is one of those things where it's not just the affluent families that who can using nan nannies. and i can speak from personal experience. i have friends in the same situation. she put her name on a list for a daycare when she was six weeks pregnant because she couldn't get in, so many families turn to nannies or nanny shares. so it's becoming quite more common particularly in your urban cities for professional peoples to turn to nannies. >> is there a push for certain states to adopt some type of legislation to ensure that in n nannies don't get short changed when it comes to benefits, health insurance, vacation time, being paid for sick day, et cetera is this becau cetera? because i know that can be a real problem, too. >> this is a real issue. and what you said at the beginning of our conversation is so true. parents rely on these nannies. but it is a two-way exchange. and for the nannies,e treated f. new york state recently passed a domestic workers bill of right so is when things like overtime or sick time or when all these issues come up, that at least there is some mechanism for these issues to be resolved. and in montgomery county, maryland, they have passed a law a couple years ago where they now have families required to have contracts with their nannies spelling out again will is what will happen in the event someone is sick, this is overtime rules, vacation and so forth. and so i think that will go a long way so that the nannies feel treated and they get the respect that they deserve. >> lisa sylvester, thanks solve. if you're planning a trip this summer, there are new apps to help you get organized and find the best deals while on the road. extreme heat continues to cripple the crop industry. just take a look at how badly corn production is getting hit. according to statistics, over 64% of the country is experiencing moderate or worse drought conditions. the effects of the heat will soon take its toll on our wallets, as well. emily schmidt has details. >> reporter: in a rural corner of maryland, it is the right place, the wrong time, to live off the land. >> yeah, it's been sunny side too much this year. >> reporter: too much sun, too little rain for too long. tommy's crops are the worse he'sed a in more than 40 years of farming. >> i've never seen anything -- i heard them talk about i think it's 1948 or something like that. >> reporter: his corn is dry, shri shriveled and hurting. >> usual it's 42, 44 grains long. this one's 8 grains long. >> reporter: the damage stretches across the country. the u.s. department of agriculture estimates two-thirds of all crops are now affected by at least moderate drought. when did it start looking bad? >> started here about the third week of june. >> reporter: he has federal crop insurance, but at least he'll break even. so he won't hire the six extra workers he usually gets and they won't be the only ones paying the price. >> corn prices are fed all the way up to the supermarket. >> reporter: usda economy i.s say the drought shouldn't cause historic levels of food inflation, but shoppers will see a price mcthis year. >> we expect to see poultry bryces go up 4.5%, beef another 4.5%, pork prices probably 2% to 3%. >> reporter: in 2013, high are prices are expected to add another $3 to $4 to a $100 grocery bill. >> should be beans in this it area right here. don't see anything. >> reporter: if there's no rain in two weeks, his beans will be worthless. with the next crop one year away. >> it's in your blood. you like what do you and you can't wait to get up every morning and go do it, but it hurts. it hurts. >> reporter: if tommy had to guess, he would estimate an 80% crop loss this year. in fact, his only certainty is that if 6300 acres that he farm, these are the only 13 acres that are green. he irrigates them for a corn maze in the fall and afc right now, they are the only guaranteed crop that he'll have. and apple is very successful at selling their iphones and ipads and now they may be venturing in to the social media world. the tech giant has recently been in talks to buy a chunk of twitter. our money tech expert joining us with more. tell us about these talks. how serious are the talks? >> well, first of all, it's speculation at this point and we can't confirm that they're actually are talks happening, but knowing apple and twitter, it's definitely on the table. twitter raised money last year at about $400 million. they have an $8 billion valuation. looking to go public in the next couple years. so at the end of the day, they will be looking now for strategic investors. they no longer need investors to throw money at them, they will need investorses that will be good for the future company. so definitely a possibility that 2450 these talks could have been happening. and twitter and apple have a good relationship. >> how would it help if they were to team up? >> if you look at apple, apple does a lot of things right. they're a power house when it comes to iphone, ipad. but they don't have a social network. microsoft invested in facebook a long time ago. it could be a good move for apple to invest in twitter because it would give them access to a huge social network. and for twitter, twitter was baked in on ios about a year ago and that means every time you take a picture, you can easily tweet it. that helped them get out there even more. so it could definitely be a strategic alliance for both if it were to happen. >> let's switch gear to travel apps to make vacationing a lot easier and more affordable. >> yeah, hotel tonight, this is one i've been testing out. this is kind of for last minute bookers for day of travel. let's say you get vanded strand city, you can pull about up an app called hotel tonight and they'll tell you all the hotels in your area that are available. and these are luxury hotels, it will use gps to find you and show you great hotels around you. empire hotel that was recently on there. and it will offer discounts up to 70% off. and the cool thing about this app is you can book everything completely using your smart phone. so this is not a web application at all. you can book it in just a couple taps and it's almost a little too easy to book travel this way. so they've gotten a lot of traction. >> so many people have found themselves in that kind of predicament where they're like here i am, where am i staying tonight. so recently i understand you went to tel aviv and you received some advice from some of your friends there about go go bot app? >> i know, it's a strange name, but i heard about it and i thought 50i678 i'm goii'm going out. instead of looking at yelp or something like trip adviser, why not try to utilize your social networks an ask your friends what are good places for you to go to. so it's an a app that allows you to do that. you post a question, you say this is exactly what i did, i said i'm going to tel aviv, i need good places to go. and your friends will answer you and tell you good places that they've been and there's also a local community of travel writers that will tell you good places to go. and gogobot takes those recommendations. if someone recommend as restaurant, it will show me where it is, pictures around the restaurant, and it will also if you're using your smart phone will give me directions. if i'm getting off the beach and i want to go somewhere, it will give me directions. so this idea of social travel and a bit more personalized. >> and then why not an app that will help you organize your travel plans. because that can be inundating, too. >> if you're anything like me, i get all these e-mails with my hotel booking, my car rental and that kind stuff and it can be a huge problem if i'm unorganized. so trip it is something is lot of people are using. every time you get a confirmation, you send it to trip it, it will aggregate it into one folder. it is a huge help. and then it will also send to your smart phone so you have basically your itinerary in your pocket. and all the valuable numbers like the number for your hotel, confirmation number, all this one. so it's a pretty cool app and a lot of people are using it. so definitely one to test out if you're traveling. because the travel industry and tech industry a lot of people are trying to come out with these travel apps and those are some that are worth trying. >> i can see how trip it is really going to help. all right. thanks so much. for more high tech ideas, go to cnn.com/tech and lk for the look for the gaming and gadgets tap. every saturday at this time, we bring you information about new technology and how it just might impact your life. ♪ ( whirring and crackling sounds ) man: assembly lines that fix themselves. the most innovative companies are doing things they never could before, by building on the cisco intelligent network. agents, say hello to the biggest hailstone in u.s. history. oh, that will leave a dent. which is exactly why we educate people... about comprehensive coverage. yep. the right choice now can pay off later. looks like a bowling ball. yeah. oh! agents, say hello to the second-biggest hailstone in u.s. history.
