The media track star reporter pistorius is charged with murdering reba steincamp in a fit of rage. He claims he shot her accidentally, fearing a home invasion. I believed there was a threat to my life. His lawyers argued pistorius was suffering from an anxiety disorder. But a Court Ordered psychological evaluation found no evidence that pistorius was mentally impaired. It should be great. Will it be a world record . Reporter athletes and experts know this kind of mad adulation. Pistorius has set a world record. Reporter can change a person for better or worse. You get treated differently. You get more things handed to you, and you have a greater feeling of invincibility, that you can basically do anything you want and youll get away with it. Did you have that feeling . Absolutely. Reporter mike golic has heard the roar of the crowd. He played defensive tackle for nine nfl seasons. A position and a game that demand an element of rage. I dont want to take anything away from what payton maning is doing. Golic and his sports journalist partner, Mike Greenburg are cohosts on espn radio. Mike and mike. One of the greats in professional sports. Sports is a microcosm of society. Men commit horrible acts when tay put their hands on a woman. Some are professional athlegalitys and they wind up at the top of the newscast. Star running back ray rice. Reporter ray rice of the Baltimore Ravens made news. Dragging her from the elevator he allegely knocked her out. Rice was charged with aggravated assault but the charge will be dropped if he completes counseling. Rices name is now added to a long list of pro athletes akueds of abusing women or worse. What we have here is a suicidal man o. J. Simpson with a gun to his head. Charged today with a double murder. Reporter how interested are people generally in athletes who get into criminal trouble . Enormously so. Athletes have become far more than any other time celebrities. Today i think theyre much more like movie stars and rock stars. Thats exactly the point. I think when we talk about professional athletes, we should be comparing them to celebrities, not to the average joe. Abrams is the author of anger management in sports. Talk about athletes being a violent population. Theyre more likely to be involved in criminal behavior, and theres no research to support that. Reporter most players the overwhelming majority of Football Players and professional athletes in the country are like mike who have a full understanding of when the switch gets turned off. The perception is these guys are meptal cases mental cases on the field and cant shut it off. We expect the gun and abuse charges. And when they do get charged, they get on page 1. Its not surprising that Aaron Hernandez, a former tight end for the new England Patriots has been splashed across the headlines. Hes charged with three homicides. The Massachusetts Police led Aaron Hernandez out of his home in handcuffs. Hearing gunshots. You start to hear about Aaron Hernandez. The new charges isnt over a spilled drink.

This was an enormous story in the United States despite the fact it was a player that most people hadnt heard of prior to that incident. Reporter plaxico burress, a star nfl receiver became a tabloid star after he accidentally shot himself in a new york night club. Plaxico burress is on the front page of the newspaper for weeks. According to published reports, burress was carrying the unlicensed weapon for prec. How vulnerable are these guys to attacks on themselves . I think judging from their own actions they feel very vulnerable. Reporter the fact is some athletes are targets and become victims like shawn taylor of the washington redskins. Shawn taylor is just 24 years old and already a football star. Reporter taylor was shot when he confronted an intruder. The door burst open, and the gunman fired two shots. His girlfriend and oneyearold daughter were also in the house. Shawn taylor was shot and killed during a home invasion. So it does happen. Oscar pistorius has said he was armed because he was afraid of a home invasion. And for a growing number of athletes, fear is a part of fame. I dont know if there is a statistic on this that can be verified. I would say the percentage of athletes who carry guns has co probably jumped 50 from what it would have been 20 or 30 years ago. I think largely because they feel they have to. They feel they need it to protect themselves. You can have a separate argument whether its a good or bad idea, but forget what they say. Look at what they do. These guys are carrying guns, and theyre not doing it for no reason. Abrams says frequently athletes are their own worst enemies. Too proud with faced with challenges off the field to just walk away. Reporter do you think you know from real case histories the types of thing that is cause these guys to snap . Yes. The people they think are at greatest risk to snap are those full blown narcissists. The ones so full of themselves and when they engage in criminal behavior its a rage. Where does is it start . Someone took a shot at your manhood. Reporter how hard is it to walk away . Its very difficult to walk away. Its difficult when youre in that mindset to turn it off. That gets guys in trouble. Eventually the judge in pretoria will decide what was at stake worry oscar pistorius. Was it his safety, or was it his pride . Osgood wait until you see what 60 minutes discovered. Miles and miles of empty towers homes and subdivisions. Is this the next housing bubble . Tonight on 60 minutes. I can translate for you. Hey guys. I need you. Osgood now a page with the sunday morning almanac. 1921, 93 years ago today. A new form of agriculture first took flight. That was the day that army pilot john lecree look off from the field in dayton, ohio on the first demonstration of crop dusting by plane. Crop dusting flight was to follow. Among the first of the aerial dusters were the delta puffers. Osgood this informational film from the 1950s offered a simulation of the crop dusting early days. Planes like the puffers inaugurated a new industry. Osgood along with chemical pesticides crop dusting planes opened up a front against weeds and insects and achieved no small measure of success. The planes were a common sight across america by 1959. A common sight put to common use in north by northwest. Thats funny. What . That plane is dusting crops where there aint no crops. The crop dusters pursued by carie grant is one of the most iconic movie scenes of all time. I believe most crop dusting flights are free of those pilots and free of pilots of any sort. As a new generation of crop dusting drones takes to the sky. The new crop dusting phenomena. The pilots of old unknown. It does it all by remote control. Low flying spreading drone. Coming up. The beat goes on. Osgood its one thing to say an individual marches to the beat of a different drummer, but what if its an entire island were talking about. A postcard from japans island. Sado island. Reporter 30 miles off the coast of japan lies remote sado island. So far from mainland japan, entually it was a notorious land of exile. Banish those who displaced the regime. Today aside from occasional boat loads of tourists, sado remains a lonely outpost. Distraction free. Visitors come here for the islands dramatic coastline, lushly forest the mountains and quiet coastal villages. They also come here for something else. The drums. The drumming is among japans most cultural icon. Sado is home of one of its most renowned ensembles. Melody, no lyrics, mesmerizing. Drumming is doesnt quite convey the pyrotechnics of the kodo troupe. The tightly choreographed performances on the drums are a joyous display of pure athleticism, as musical entertainment. The instruments are as old as japan itself. The largest tyco drum made from a tree trunk weighs almost 900 pounds. He became a kodo artist when he was just 18. Now 33, he directs the ensemble. He says, when were on stage, we clear our mind. Speaks gets in the way when drumming. While making music we allow ourselves to be swallowed up and immersed. The remote seting is tailor made for molding kodo drummers. This is what makes kodo unique. Here at the isolated village, a drummer must spend years, living and training together. Its a grueling apprenticeship unmagable for most musicians. Training is 24 7. When youre not in practice, chores. The lifestyle is meant to hone a sense of teamwork and discipline that translates into seamless intuitive performances on stage. Tyco drums have been pounding out the backbeat of every day japan for 2,000 years. Originally used in religious ceremonies traditional drums remain popular in a country where old customs still drive the rhythm of modern life. Its mostly a mans game. Females are ignored in the world of kodo drumming. Among them is amy. Training was tough, physically and mentally, she says, but it really paid off. Nothing in my life has been more satisfying. When not training the world is traveling the world the world on tour. When not training, many come to the island for the music festival. Tony is from denver. 15 of us have come from all over the United States and from canada. Kodos appeal lies in the fact that its as much a physical as a listening experience. Production assistant dan rosen. The tyco is is such a primal university instrument its accessible to everyone. And something about the japanese sdrum thats at once exotic but at once familiar to everyone. What isnt familiar is the emotional send off at the festivals end. The ferryboat takes fans home. Theres one last salute. What are you doing later . Still to come, actress and director lee grant tells all. We kissed each other and it felt so good, we just kept kissing and kissing. Osgood but first. Tori amos on tour. Announcer cbs news with scott pelley. Its sunday morning on cbs, and here again is charles osgood. Osgood thats corn flake girl, a summer song from the prolific singer songwriter, tori amos. Shes been charting her own course a long time now and has won a very loyal following over the years. We have the story. We see reporter its an inside joke. Tori amos is now 50, and her fans in age right along with her. Many of them first fell in love with her with the megahit crucify in 1991. Along with the persona that was equal parts mystic and renegade. 14 albums and 33 years later, tori amos is still packing them in. The world tour kicked off in ireland three years ago, ask as you expect, theres a message in the music. Its not a like reporter not a lot of women 15 and up are getting front line contracts. Thats true. Intimidating. And its real and true and accurate its fact. Born myra davis in North Carolina in 1963, she was a natural musician who at age 5 won a scholarship to the prestigious peabody conservatory. Her father was a minister but took his daughter to play bars around washington, d. C. That left a lasting bond. Eventually amos moved to the west coast and worked the circuit. At age 22 she was sexually assaulted, an ordeal that left her psychologically mutilated. Tell me what her song about that trauma became an anthem for millions of victims of sexual violence. These days, amos spends most of her time with her teenage daughter and her musical collaborator and husband of 16 years, mark hawley. Hes the right guy. We have date night. Im dating my husband. If i decide to take myself away so hell miss me. She goes to ireland. Its peaceful countryside and bally illiams. Is this a place you stay right. Oh, yeah. Its nice here. When im here, the music comes. Reporter the name of her new album hanging in the hallway of the house. So i saw her and a story started taking over, and the rhythms started coming. Reporter the lyrics are a summons to liberation. Dont be crushed they say by the guilt heaped on women by a Traditional Church or a judgmental society. Even when we were thinking we were shamed. The shame is damaging. Reporter so i had to ask, does amos, the daughter of a preacher feel any shame when he looks at this outrageous downright weird 1996 album picture of her. Do you regret now that you did it . No, i dont. Reporter but that was then, before she had her own child. I did that before. And what does cash think about it . Rock on, mom. Granddad must have had quite a day when he saw that. Part of the tori amos all her life. Ever take your reporter and now sharing the limelight for the first time on the new album in a duet with her mom called promise. What did you have in mind when you wrote that . We were talking about what happens when a mom and daught the point of talking they dontine get that far because the world comes up. So we decided lets Say Something that talks about what we wont do, what we we wont do eachat we say do to support each other. Reporter before every vf ngs again. W6zs looag ari leave. But theverauell ari61 ofc3 admit to doing some hi other orkers are given 31 days of paid time off. Japan . 10 days. Italy,nada, 19. And if your time off consider thislk than a quarter of the American Workforce take no vacation time. Are both okay. We need them both, its clear. But one without the other is not good for us. All work, no play each day, makes jack aoy. And time away from work does not mean greater joy. In working hard as well and satisfaction too. Which makes vacation sweeter. No matter what we do. Coming up the freemasons. Behind closed doors. U8 osgood the square and compasses are among the traditional tools of stone masons and also form the symbol of an organization misunderstood and maligned for centuries. Mo rocco takes us inside the freemasons. Reporter its the worlds most well known secret society. Rich with symbols and ritual. Its a source of legends. Parodys. Who has the metric system down we do, we do. Reporter and conspiracy theories. Because so much organized crime using the masonic secret system and the good old boy . X et worknetwork to get away with murder. Reporter welcome to the world of freemasonry. True or false the masons are a secret society . No. Thats false. Reporter ucla history professor, Margaret Jacobs is one of the worlds leading experts on freemasonry. True or false freemasonry is a religion . False. Reporter true or false, freemasons were behind the American Revolution . False reporter what about the dollar bill thats masonic, right . No. Everybody says masonic. Its a commonplace symbol that particular set of symbols. Reporter true. Freemasons laid the corner stone of america well, at least some of the most iconic structures. So what is freemasonry . Simply put its the worlds oldest and largest fraternity. Its membership of whos who of world history. George washington. Beverage lin franklin, Winston Churchhill mozart, Davey Crockett harry houdini. Gerald ford, john wayne, andine even colonel sanders. If you want to be a member, youll need to demonstrate good character and belief in some sort of a supreme being. And in almost all lodges its men only. Next, youre up for a vote explains former new york state grand master james sullivan. They either vote to accept you, and then the three degrees thaw go through. Once you earn the third degree and thats where the phrase comes from, you can join any number of brant mason is a 33rd gree mason, and you know, that big building in washington, d. C. This isnt like the masonic vatican, but its an important building. Its an important building, absolutely right. Its the freemasonry in United States, and thats the headquarters building. Reporter inside the temple lodge room is a stunner. Downstairs, theres this. This is the flag that he took with him. Thi. Flag, southern jurisdiction that went wow. Now its tiny hats and small cars are your thing theres the Party Animals of the freemasonry, the shriners. You may know them for the two childrens hospitals where patients dont have to pay a cent. The masons are philanthropic and donate 2 million to charity every day. Freemasonry began in europe as a guild for stone masons, but liveed on as a social organization. 1717. The first lodge is createed in london. And now there are men in these lodges that are not associateed with trade organizations theyre not stone cutters . Theyre not stone cutters. So something happened and modern fraternity was created. Its not long afterwards that the conspiracy theories began. These men with different neighborhoods, different possessions meeting in a cafe, breaking bread and doing rituals. What could this be . So the response on the part of the authorities was oh, my god, this is a conspiracy. Reporter and so in 1738, pope clement the 12th issued the Catholic Church first decree against freemasonry and it still applies today. In the u. S. , freemasonry flourished until the secrecy made together object of suspicion here, spawning americas first third party, the antimasonic party. It elected eight congressman, but lost the 1828 president ial election to Andrew Jackson a proud mason. Today freemasonry has about 1. 3 million members in the u. S. Down from 4 million in 1959. Among the members today, africanamericans formerly relegateed to a separate black only branch of freemasonry, and then members like those in Colonial Lodge 1821 of washington, d. C. Most of them are in their 20s, and some attracted to freemasonry by novels and movies Like National treasure. They formed a new brotherhood called the freemasons in honor of the great temple. The mystery well its a combination of history, of tradition and ritual. You know the ritual but dont know exactly what . Right. Thats the reason people joined . What about the secrets. What would happen if i found out the secret handshake and i werent a mason . Would you have to kill me . We might take you out and buy you a beer. The secrets of a mason represent my integrity as a male. I took a promise that i would not tell you what the secrets of a mason are. I didnt take a promise that i would care if you know what they are. Reporter also a big secret the meetings. No nonmasons or cameras are allowed but in new york city they agreed to give us a glimpse. For meetings they dress in their sunday best, and like stone cutters wear aprons. At the center of the room is an altar. And all the pierce vaughn is the former lodge master. Do people talk about religion here in meetings . Absolutely not. There are certain subjects which are prevented from discussing in the lodge and religion is one and politics is another. Religand politics. Reporter someone said masons were raised right. And then the ser poens. Each one teaches a moral legend relateed to the legend of hiram, the architect of King Solomons temple. They can be a little unusual as pointed out in this recruitment video. Even while blind folded, try to concentrate on what youre asked what is said to you, and what is happening around you. Everything will be explained to you in later sections of the degree. When a candidate comes through the door, he is blind folded because symbolically hes in a state of dparkness, because freemasonry is about moving from darkness to masonic light. Reporter its about being unenlightened and then enlightened . Thats right. Reporter as for what happens after that . Well, thats a secret. But for members freemasonry is about something much simpler. Its a group of men that i enjoy being with. These are people that i go out to dinner with, we socialize together. Theyre the guys i like to hang with. Theyre my friends. Osgood ahead. Oscar winning actress lee grant, the bad old days. I playeye couldnt work again in television. Osgood next, were going fishing. Osgood nothing like a good catch for a fishermen or a story for a traveling correspondent. Reporter a trout spring is no bigger than and when it comes to outsmarting fly fishermen, its enough which is why truly obsessive fishermen like randy brown seek any advantage they can, like splurging on a 4,000 fishing pole. This is a pleasure to fish with. Theres no other rods its just a stick. Its the best stick there. The best stick there is . I think so. The rods hes references are designed by a legendary maker. This is the holy grail. Which is why we recently made a pilgrimage to meet the maker at his home outside of bozeman, montana where we learned this man who may know more about fly fishing rods than anyone in the world hasnt so much as held one since 1995. It has always been a pursuit of perfection. Reporter he runs the business with the help of his wife jerri he never cared much for fishing let alone rod making. But after tom was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis he bought into the dream hook, line and endless tinkering. It has given him a life he wouldnt have had. I wouldnt have thought about m. S. Reporter as a kid growing up in montana all tom wanted to do was fish. He used to fish until he dropped, literally. As an adult he needed less sleep and did even more fishing until m. S. Now virtually paralyzed the disease forced him to rechannel his passion. Do you still day dream about fishing . I sure do. I catch them. Reporter tom has none of the bitterness youd expect with a man denied his past time. Theres a joy in him that comes from bringing joy to others. Over the years i know that ive provided thousands of people with their enjoyment in their favorite sport. It brings tears to my eyes. Reporter proof that theres only one thing better than a great day. Making someone elses. Osgood still to come. I had a face lift at 30. Why so young . Yes. But i couldnt look in the mirror. Actress and director lee grant tells all. I need someone to be nice to me this week. Can you be nice to me this week . No, i dont announcer its subpoena morning on cbs sk, here again is charles osgood. Osgood thats lee grant playing a doomed passenger in a disaster film, airport 77. In real life, grant is a hollywood survivor, with quite a life story to tell. If she tells it now with Michelle Miller for our sunday profile. Reporter lee grant has been studying her face for more than 80 years and so have we on stage on television, and in movies like shampoo. You have no respect for me. Reporter valley of the dolls. Why dont you remember him as he was. Reporter and in the heat of the night. What kind of a place is this . Reporter for four 1 2 years, sitting in her manhattan apartment. This was the desk. This was the desk they used for makeup. Reporter the Academy Award winning actress and director confronted her past business writing it all down by hand. The result is a new thoroughly honest memoir. I said yes my real name is yova pascal rosenthal. Her family had a vision for her. A life of fame and glamour, maybe as a dancer. Rich, rich. Rich american with a slightly rich accent. What they saw in the movies. There was play acting going on . Not play acting. It was just a yearning, an a wish. An immigrant wish. It all depends on me to carry out the wish. Reporter to make that wish come true, she threw herself into studying theatre. Her early training led to a part in the 1949 broadway play detective story. A role she repeated in the film. It was the first of four oscar nominations. But as quickly has she ascended it all came crashing down. I was blacklisted from the time of 24 an actress 24 to 36, the prime years. Can you imagine . 24 to 36. Are you a member of the communist party, or have you ever been a member of the communist party . Starting in 1947, the House Unamerican Activities Committee subpoenaed actors, directors and writers to discover if the Entertainment Industry was indoctrinating americans with communist ideology. What did you think about communism at the time . Was it something that you were passionate about . I knew nothing about it. It was one of the big rifts between my husband and myself. He was a communist. I didnt have the base for that kind of philosophy. I just couldnt understand it. Reporter not only was grant in love with an american communist, screenwriter arnie manhoff. She agreed to speak at the Memorial Service of a fellow actor. Jay edward donver, who died of a heart attack sloert of his 40th birthday. Two days later i was in an actors equity meeting, and the actor in front of me said and i said what . And he said, he had this book of red channels, and my name was in it, lee grant was in it. With the words that i said at his memorial. Reporter what is it to see your name on that list today . Im in good company. Reporter grants name was placeed on a list that included leonard bernstein, lena horne arthur miller, pete seger. Orson wells and many others. From that day for 12 years, i couldnt work again in film or television. Reporter once her name appeared, she had to testify in washington, d. C. Observe the unamerican activities committee. What did these men ask you . They asked me if i got my work through the communists. Apparently, they had put together communist agents theatre agents. So an agent they thought was a communist. It was so stupid. Reporter in 1964, her attorney did a political favor for the head of the house committee, and for grant the black list was over, but so was her marriage to arnie manoff who soon died at 50 from a heart attack. Once off the list, many offers came her way including one of the most Controversial Television shows at the time. Payton place for which she won an emmy. This is the continuing story of payton place. The statement was tell your brother im going to get it. Reporter payton place was a place rife with secrets and grant had been keeping a few of her own. Shed been scriming years off her birth date and more. I had a face lift at 30. Thats so young. Yes but i couldnt look in the mirror. Did you achieve the effect you wanted . Absolutely. Everything that went down, went up. Reporter so even if it meant playing slightly older woem, like the one who wanted a shampoo and a lot more from her seductive hair dresser. Great. And what whatever you say. Andine Warren Beatty was at hottest commodity in hollywood, but grant claims there was no sex even during his visit to her hotel room. We kept kissing and kissing and kissing until he left. It was morning afterall. You know, he had a lot of other ladys to drop in on.
