This National Guard chopper crew spent the entire day dropping these bags trying to shore up a canal in the state capital of columbia. The bags are 3,000 pounds. Some are filled with sand and some are filled with rocks. Theyre being used to build a barrier because the colombia canal has breached, threatening the water supply to more than 350,000 people. You know, just being here on the scene lets you know how real that is. Reporter kim stenson is director of the states Emergency Management division. How long do you think it will take to temporarily shore it up . I think the next day or so they should be able to do that. Reporter today, he toured the Columbia Canal with fema administrator craig fugate. Both agency heads are monitoring floodwater that is flowing east and threatening to breach 62 other dams in the state. With 14 dams now breached, sowks shaky maintenance record is being scrutinized. The state spent overly 260,000 on inspection and maintenance in 2014. By comparison, North Carolina spent nearly 2 million, nearly 10 times as much and had zero dam failures from recent rainfalls. One of your newspapers is calling the Dam Safety Program flawed. Would you take exception with that . I think there will be a lot of people with a lot of opinions. What i will tell you is this is a 1,000year flood and we have thousands of dams in this state. And, you know, there will be a lot of things we can go back after this and say, okay, where do we go from here . Reporter this morning, authorities recovered the bodies of two railroad workers.

Today, by air, land, and sea, russia launched a major escalation in syria to seize the military initiative from the united states. Russian warships fired dozens of missiles in support of the assad dictatorship. Russian bombers hit rebels, some of them backed by the united states. The u. S. Has been bombing syria for a year, attacking the isis extremists. Holly williams is covering. Reporter russia says it launched 26 cruise missiles today from its warships on the caspian sea. They flew over 900 miles across iran and iraq hitting parts of Northern Syria where both isis and Al Qaedalinked fighters have a heavy presence. Russian president Vladimir Putin said the highprecision caliber missiles used for the first time reflected good preparation and training by his countrys military. But the u. S. Says moscows airstrikes in syria are also targeting moderate americanbacked rebels, and that russias real goal in syria is to plop up the regime. Protected by russian air cover, regime troops began a ground offensive today in rebel strongholds. Opposition fighters hit back in some of the most intense fighting in several months. But after four years of bloody civil war, russias air campaign may be tipping the balance in favor of the syrian regime. Russias military buildup in syria now also includes a battalion of Ground Troops, according to the u. S. Ambassador to nato. And, scott, that is despite russian assertions that it will not use Ground Troops in its operationinoperations inside sy. Pelley and the u. S. Said those Russian Troops are equipped with their topoftheline tanks and artillery. Holly williams reporting from istanbul tonight. Hole, thanks. Today, president obama personally apologized for the american airstrike on saturday that killed 22 civilians at a hospital in afghanistan. He phoned the head of doctors without borders, which ran the hospital, and he also called the afghan president. The u. S. Commander in afghanistan said the attack was directed by american troops after Afghan Forces called for help. He called it a mistake. Doctors without borders says it still wants an independent investigation. Today, prosecutors in oregon said the gunman who killed nine people last week also shot at two detectives. They fired back, wounding him. Then, he took his own life. President obama will meet fridays with families of the victims, and Julianna Goldman tells us that the shooting has now become a major issue in the president ial campaign. From the indications that i got, they did not rush the shooter. Reporter on cbs this morning ben carson doubled down, repeating the suggestion that victims of last weeks mass shooting at an Oregon Community college could have done more to protect themselves. He apparently department know that an army veteran did, in fact, try to stop the shooter. Do you know who chris mintz is . No. Reporter the republican president ial candidate ignited the firestorm yesterday. I would ask everybody to attack the government because he can only shoot one of us at a time. That wayee dont all wind up dead. Reporter the former neurosurgeon posted a provocative defense of the Second Amendment on facebook writing, i never saw a body with bullet holes that was more devastating than take the right to arm ours away. Some rivals, like senator lindsey graham, took issue with carsons remarks. I just dont think thats the road to go down in terms of questioning people who have lost their lives, because you have no idea what you would do. Reporter donald trump came to carsons defense. I thought he was treated unfairly. Reporter the republican president ial field has largely responded to last weeks campus massacre by rejecting calls for stricter gun laws. In iowa today, Hillary Clinton jumped on their rhetoric. Youve got people running for president on the other side who say, well, you know, we just need more guns. And the idea that you need more guns to stop people who are committing Mass Shootings is not only illogical but offensive. Reporter this isnt the first time carson has invited controversy. In 2014, he compared the Obama Administration to nazi germany, and he recently said muslims shouldnt be president. It may not be what carson said but how he said it thats controversial. Scott, government guidelines for how to handle an active School Shooting advise that its a last resort that daylights in immediate danger should try to overpower the gunman. Pelley Julianna Goldman in the washington newsroom. Julianna, thank you. In iowa today, Major Garrett asked jeb bush about carsons comments. I dont quite understand what that means. Reporter bush said the focus should be on the victims families and he has compassion for those calling for stricter gun laws but disagrees. I know theyre acting on their heart. Name a case where gun rights being restricted out of washington would have changed the course of any of those cases. The bigger problem right now is that we have people that are have growing despair, that are isolated from society, theyre disconnected from the rest of us, and spiral out of control, and then commit these atrocious acts of violence, in many cases commit suicide. Reporter despite a Significance Fund raising and organizational advantage, bush runs fourth or fifth in polls in early voting states and nationally. Theres now talk of bringing former president george w. Bush on to the campaign trail to rally g. O. P. Support. He doesnt have to rescue me. Im on the path. Im toadlely confident about where we are. I will continue to ask his advice and counsel, but i gotta go win this. This is this is my job. Reporter bush likes to call himself the tortoise in the race slow and steady. Its a long haul. You know, its what happens in october is completely irrelevant. Ask me how its going in january, and ill tell that you its going pretty good. Reporter the tortoise metaphor is interesting except i dont ever remember the tortoise going backward. Look im not going backward. Reporter but your numbers having down. I dont have a clue of what peoples expectations for me were. I have a plan from the beginning to the end and were going to lay out provocative ideas to lift people up. Reporter bush told us he will win one of the first g. O. P. Nominated contests and might win as many as three. Scott, bush is running in the middle of the pack here in iowa, new hampshire, south carolina, and nevada. Pelley Major Garrett in des moines tonight. Major, thank you.

Today, new yorks attorney general opened an investigation of the Fantasy Sports industry. Employees at two Major Companies are accused of gambling with inside information that millions of customers did not have. Heres don dahler. Reporter in Fantasy Sports leagues, participants pick athletes to create their own teams. A belt to deep left field. Reporter theyre rewarded based upon how those athletes perform. Elizabeth vagianos has been playing on fanduel for a year. Shes won 45. But now this boston resident is crying foul. Any time the Playing Field isnt level, its it does make you think, like, hmm. Whats really going on here . Reporter up until this week, it was common practice for employees of the two biggest Fantasy Sports companies, draftkings and fanduel, to play in the others Fantasy League. The concern is that Fantasy League employees knew which athletes were being picked before that information was made public. They could then create a fantasy team of lesspopular pickwho, if they performed well in a real game, would pay off big. A fanduel spokesperson confirmed to cbs news that draftkings employees have racked up millions in winnings. Ted clark teaches ethics and entrepreneurship at northeastern university. Its information arbitrage. They have information the other group doesnt, and they use it to their advantage. Reporter the controversy is a black eye for the rapidly growing industry thats expected to generate 3. 7 billion in entry fees this year and over 15 billion within five years. Daily Fantasy Leagues have Financial Relationships with major league baseball, nbc, comcast, fox sports, and cbs. Prominent nfl owners, robert kraft of the patriots and jerry jones of the cowboys, are investors. Theres even a draftkings fantasy lounge in both of their stayed yups. Both Fantasy LeagueCompanies Say theyve stopped allowing their employees to play. Draftkings c. E. O. Jason robins played defense on esnps outside the lines. I think this was a real eyeopening experience for us. In retrospect, it seems obvious that would cause people concern. Reporter draftkings is based here in boston. There are members of congress who want to look at whether Fantasy Sports leagues constitute gambling or whether theyre simply games of skill. Scott, the difference, is gambling is regulated and so far Fantasy Sports leagues are not. Pelley don dahler reporting tonight. Don, thank you.

Charged drastically different prices for the same medical procedures. Dr. Jon lapook looked into this.

Sacramento, california, ranked highest on mamo grams at 485 compared to 159 in cincinnati. Michelle scott is General Council for fair health. Has there been anything that just knocked your socks off . I think sometimes the fact that there are such disparities in pricing and that they can occur within blocks of each other. Reporter for example, a mammogram done for suspected cancer where bergman lives cost 211, but 30 miles away, in teaneck, new jersey, the same test is 95. Why is there such a wide range of prices for the same procedure . Theres a wide range because there are a lot of different circumstances, and the costs may be driven up by other factors overhead, rental considerations and the methods that different doctors use to perform the procedures. I think consumers need to take a more proactive role in their health care. There are tools that they can use in order to make proper decisions, so that they can be the educated consumer, which we need to be in todays day and age.
