diand he's headed for surgery. "early" this thursday, july 28th, 20 1. captioning funded by cbs >> good morning to you, i'm erica hill. beautiful sky. >> i'm chris wragge. we're allowed to have our cup of coffee. >> a lot of people. >> it was a tumultuous day on wall street but not for dunkin' donuts. their stock jumped 50%, taking aim at starbucks and mcdonald's when it comes to the coffee wars. if you were smart enough to get in, you were rewarded. >> cheers with your ice water over there. >> we're faking it. >> we'll get to that ahead this morning. we want to update you first with the latest from washington on the debt talks. there are only five days left for congress to pass a budget cutting plan that will raise the government borrowing limit and avoid a default. this morning the house is set to take an important vote and much of america from main street to wall street will be reporting. nancy cordes is on capitol hill, good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you, erica. the vote is on speaker boehner's bill to raise the debt ceiling and it's important because it's one of the two bills out there that could possibly get us out of this mess, but at this hour, it's still very uncertain whether speaker boehner has the republican votes he needs to pass it. and so he became boehner the enforcer yesterday holding several meetings with house republicans, tea party republicans, freshmen republicans, telling them essentially it is time for you to get on board. some of these republicans don't like the bill, they don't feel like it cuts spending enough. they don't like that it doesn't contain a balanced budget amendment but what boehner and other republican leaders are saying to them is look, this is a marathon, not a sprint. we need to take what we can get and come back to fight this fight another day. otherwise if the economy goes sour, we will be the ones who get blamed for it. here is how senator john mccain put it on the senate floor yesterday. >> that is not fair to the american people to hold out and say we won't agree to raising the debt limit until we pass a balanced budget amendment to the constitution. it's unfair. it's bizarro. >> reporter: now if this bill passes today and it's going to be close it goes to the senate where all 53 members of the democratic caucus vowed to vote against it. the main thing they don't like about it is that it only raises debt ceiling by six months which they say creates a lot of uncertainty. if there's some way to alter that in a way palatable for democrats and republican it is might pass the senate, then get sent back over to the house but that's a tall order, erica, when they have, as you said, five days to do all of this. >> countdown is on. it will keep you busy today. nancy cordes on capitol hill, thanks. >> also joining us from capitol hill one of the tea party republicans taking a hard line on taxes, spending and the debt limit, congressman joe walsh of illinois is with us. good morning. >> hi, erica. good to be with you. >> speaker boehner said essentially to republican, it is time to get in line. so will you get in line with speaker boehner and will you vote for his plan today? >> i give my speaker, erica, a lot of credit. they've been working this hard and in reality they've sort of been the only ones in town working on this problem for weeks. look, we came here in washington to change the way this town does business. i think these troublesome freshmen and a lot of the house republican rank and file have had a great impact on changing the debate, but we've got to, we're so obsessed, erica, with august 2nd. i think what's important is that we get this right and neither plan right now does that, though i understand the speaker's plan is a step in the right direction. >> so just to stop you there, two points. you say it's important to get this right, so you're okay with a potential default on august 2nd. you would let that date pass? >> erica, default's not an option. look, the administration knows that. most people in your profession should know that. we've got plenty of government revenues in the month of august to service our debt. default isn't even on the table. let's make sure we get this right, and if that means going to august 3rd or august 6th, let's do a real solution. >> well then part of the issue, though, brought up a number of times is, the debts, $306 billion or $307 billion, the money coming in without raising the debt limit would be $172 billion, clearly there's a shortfall there and not everything could get paid. how is that not a default? >> erica, what we know is the government's going to bring in a couple hundred billion in revenues this month. it's about $29 billion to service your debt so there's revenue to service the debt. there's also revenue to take care of social security and military benefits. look, there have been reports that this administration privately in private conversations has been telling banks don't worry about a default, everything is going to be okay. in public they've been scaring the american people. i don't think that's at all helpful. >> i still need to get a yes or no from you sir. are you going to vote for this or not? >> right now i can't but again we just got the numbers last night and still looking at it. >> we have to leave it there. congressman joe walsh thank you for your time. >> thank you, erica. wall street is feeling the debt limit turmoil with the dow jones industrial suffering fourth straight losses on wednesday. there are fears the numbers will fall even if a deal is reached. rebecca jarvis is on the floor with the latest. >> reporter: good morning, chris. >> with all of the uncertainty, is this the result? >> reporter: basically what you see is stocks yesterday fell 199 points, 1.6% to the downside. for the standard a&en i poor's s the worst in eight weeks. that has fueled the flames as far as negativity, the uncertainty, traders don't like it and the uncertainty in addition to the debt deal is the uncertainty like you mentioned in the introdux over standard standard & poor's will downgrade our country to investors putting their money in our treasuries. >> the federal reserve released its beige book on the first half of the year. how bleak were the numbers? >> reporter: looks gloomy. ultimately things are slowing down, wage increases are weak, weakness in the jobs market and seeing companies looking like they are not as optimistic about the growth going forward, so that was gloomy as well. >> cbs's rebecca jarvis on wall street for us, thanks so much. back over to erica. tropical storm don is in the gulf of mexico heading north for texas. tropical storm watch is out, and a lot of people in south texas are saying bring it on. give us some rain. it is so needed in that area. marysol castro is here with the latest. normally you don't see people bring on the tropical storm. >> absolutely not. good morning to you, good morning everyone at home. it's churning in the gulf of mexico about 650 miles off the coast of corpus christi, texas, moving 10 miles an hour west-northwest, picking up a little bit of speed, packing 40-mile-per-hour winds, expected to make landfall in the overnight hours, and erica as you mentioned in a portion of the country that has been experiencing the worst drought almost on record, portions of texas have seen a drought conditions for the last nine months. this tropical storm is expected to bring anywhere from two to five inches of rain, that doesn't seem like a lot of rain but when you're talking about a drought, any precipitation is welcome precipitation and of course we're going to keep an eye on this and i'll tell you about your national forecast later on in the show. erica and chris taback to you. >> jeff glor is at the news desk with a check of the other headlines. a new report shows the home foreclosure crisis may be easing. foreclosure filings dropped 29% in the first half of this year compared to the same period last year. 84% of metropolitan areas saw foreclosure rates fall. banks are trying more loan modifications to avoid foreclosing. this realty track report says lackluster home sales give lenders less incentive to foreclose. they don't want properties to go unsold. in norway the prime minister there says there will be an independent investigation into how last friday's terror attack was handled. police acknowledged it took them more than one hour to respond to that campground shooting. meanwhile in oslo today the memorial flowers and flags continue to grow outside the city's main cathedral. eight people were killed in the bombing and 68 others shot to death on utoya island. in south korea this is the capitol, seoul. at least 77 people are dead or missing. some of them swept away by the fast-moving floodwaters. 17 inches of rain has fallen since tuesday, that is the worst in a century. in hollywood a wild scene outside gromman's chinese theater. it was overcrowded and angry crowd, riot police moved in. it took place more than four hours to dis. ers that crowd. two people were arrested. ryan lochtie finished a tenth of a second faster than his own world record two years ago and the first world swimming record since the high-tech body suits were banned last year. michael phelps finished second. parents are facing more conflicting data over whether cell phone use increases risk of bain cancer. new studies say no, doctors say not so fast. >> reporter: like many other 11-year-olds, rebecca greenwald can't live without her cell phone. >> in fifth grade all of my friends have it now. fifth grade from the start to the end, people kept getting, getting them. >> reporter: rebecca's mom bought her a cell phone despite seeing various reports possibly tying cell phones linked to brain cancer. >> i tried to base it linked to brain cancer and it wasn't bothering me. >> reporter: a new study use does not cause brain cancer in children and teen's. researchers in switzerland found children in cell phones are no greater risk. they examined the records of children with and without brain cancer. this just two months after the world health organization concluded that cell phones could possibly cause cancer putting them in the same category at engine exhaust and chloroform. dr. keith black and other experts believe more research is required. >> the microwave radiation from cell phones will penetrate deeper into the child's brain and more of the radiation goes into the brain because their scalp is thinner, the skull is thinner. >> reporter: 75% of teenagers are using cell phones, up 45% since 2004. >> the question is, the child that begins using the cell phone at 7 or age 12, when they're 47, after four decades of using the cell phone, is there risk of developing brain cancer higher? >> reporter: for rebecca no matter where the debate falls her cell phone is something she'll rely on. >> i like to call my mom after activities, text my friends, see what they're doing. >> dr. ashton is here with us now. so many reports, so many studies. seems like there's a new one every couple of months. is this the final word? >> absolutely not. this study was based on association, not cause and effect. when you look at brain cancer especially in kids we have to follow kids 10, 20 years in the future. most kids, mine included are using the cell phones to text, not hold it up to their ear. >> parents will wonder what is the takeaway if we need to wait all the years for real results. what would you do? >> balance the risk versus benefit. minimize use and encourage them to use it texting and not hold it directly up to their head. >> dr. ashton thank you. see you later in the broadcast. marysol castro is here with the first check of the national forecast. >> good morning chris and everyone at home. we turn our focus to the northern plains and great lakes. we've been following the severe weather for the past five days and moving at a snail's pace so it's called training, the line of storms goes over the same area day after day after day. this is the greatest risk, grand island and des moines, you'll see hail, gusty winds and rain and actually some of you don't need this rain, if only we could take this rain and bring it to portions of texas. flash flooding is on the rise because of the deluge over the next 24 hours. high temperatures we're looking at the heat, 103 in dallas, 100 in kansas city, >> thanks so much. that's your latest weather. back over to erica and chris. >> marysol, thank you. you don't have to worry, your kids will get the blackberry with the texting from the phone studies. >> for sure. still ahead, alex trebek ends up on crutches after chasing an alleged burglar. >> you did not put that in question form. ment that's okay, don't worry about it. when will he be back on his feet again?

>> reporter: the program officially ends on sunday. ben tracy cbs news, los angeles. >> joining us now, jack ford. i hope abigail is watching. we'll get an important answer in a second. first you look at this in l.a., legality, whether or not they could legally enforce it. what kind of criteria do they need? >> we've seen some courts around the country who have thrown these out, the highest court for instance in minnesota said it's unconstitutional. they said the reason is this. the way it works right now, you're looking at a light there. if you get a picture in the mail of a car that has your license plate on it and it says you violated the law, bang, here's the picture, essentially we're saying you're guilty and some courts have said that's not the way our system works. our system is such you're innocent until proven guilty. how are they going to prove i was the driver because the license plate is registered to me? you've seen some courts who said it doesn't work. unless you can prove who the driver is. some states have come rahs that will take a shot of the driver and in that situation the courts have said that's fine. other states said it's not enough to throw the photograph on the table and say bang you're guilty. somebody has to prove this is a legitimate photograph, the camera was working at the time so there have been a number of issues raised about the legality, the constitutionality and some have staid we're not happy with this, we're not going to let it stand. >> the reason it's different as you started to point out in different cities and municip municipali municipalities, each has its own set of laws and judges could interpret it in different ways. >> some courts said we're okay. some places and one of the things los angeles is talking about, some places said let's put the constitutionality aside and look at the efficiency, the efficacy of the whole thing and one of the arguments has always been this is going to be a deterrent, to keep people from flying through red lights. >> you don't want to see the flash go off. >> some jurisdictions said we're finding the opposite, it's become a danger, people are so conscious of it, they'll jam their brakes on beforehand and some claimed there's a higher incidence of rear end strikes now because people are so concerned about that. >> so it's not working out in some cases. then there are people like abigail who we met in the piece, paid her fine and said i want my money back. jack, you are the lawyer. >> the answer is this is not as if you bought something at the grocery store, give me my money back. once you pay the fine you give up your right to contest. you have the right to challenge it but once you say okay, here is my check, i'm checking off the guilty part of it. >> sign the ticket. >> i can't afford ta take the day off to contest this, whatever your reason is for it or maybe you were the driver, once it's done, it's pretty much done so even though if los angeles turns around and says administratively we're not going to do this anymore, chances are not getting your money back. >> well -- >> but a good try. >> worth a shot. jack, thanks. now here's jeff standing by at the news desk with another check of the headlines for you, 36 minutes past the hour. good morning again. >> good morning to you, erica as well. the house will likely vote today on speaker john boehner's revised plan to raise the debt ceiling. some republicans say it doesn't cut federal spending enough though. the new plan calls for $22 billion in cuts and a $917 billion deficit reduction over ten years. however, even if the plan passes the house, senate democrats say they will vote it down. stock markets around the world are reacting with some concern to the deficit deadlock. prices were down by 1.5% in both germany and japan today. a county in alabama may vote today to file the biggest municipal bankruptcy in u.s. history. jefferson county includes birmingham, alabama's largest city. the county is more than $4 billion in debt, mostly because of a sewer system project hit by a bribery scandal. in australia, workers clearing a storm drain got an unexpected surprise. they were met by a crocodile and had only their brooms to keep the crocodile at bay. a wildlife worker eventually showed up to subdue the croc and haul it away to a safe just ahead for 102 years it treated america's wounded warriors. now walter reed army medical center is closing. and later on the story of a soldier's wife, wouldn't let war come between her and love so they got married over the phone. she was in california and he was in afghanistan and we'll meet her in our next hour, this is "the early show" here on cbs. fleas and ticks, ks it repels most ticks before they can attach and snack on us. frontline plus kills but doesn't repel. any tick that isn't repelled or killed may attach and make a meal of us.

before last weekend but traveling now, turns out something might happen with your ticket on wednesday the irs asked the airlines to refund the federal taxes, which are included in all of those tickets. that's because the taxes expired last week, when congress couldn't agree on a plan to keep the faa running. just because there are no taxes doesn't mean the tickets are cheaper and doesn't necessarily mean you'll get the money back and all of that is causing a huge stir as cbs news correspondent betty nguyen reports. >> reporter: the friendly skies aren't so welcoming right now. as of last friday the federal aviation administration has been on a partial shutdown and as a result the taxes they normally collect on air fares are on hold, but instead of passing that savings on to the consumer in the form of lower ticket prices, most airlines have raised their fees to make up the difference. >> instead of helping the people, they just looking out for themselves. >> reporter: transportation secretary ray lahood axwreez. >> average citizens planning family vacations on airlines can little afford to pay an additional cost on their ticket. >> reporter: and those additional costs are adding up to big profits. $200 million every week from the extra $22 plus on every $200 tickets sold. a few carriers aren't raising fares, alaska, hawaiian and spirit airlines which started a website this week called don'ttax don'ttaxmebro. not everyone is hopeful. >> you got to take it because not a lot else you can do. >> reporter: with the debt crisis taking center stage it seems the legislative stealmate that caused the shutdown will continue with no relief in sight for fliers or their wallet. betty nguyen cbs news, new york. >> and with us now is cbs news travel editor peter greenberg, good morning. the issue which seems to be the issue any time we talk about the price of a ticket and everything that's getting tacked on is as that woman just said there's not a lot you can do. you don't have another choice. >> this is a de facto airline air fare increase of $77.5%. that's an additional $25 the airline gets to pocket that would have normally gone to the irs, a big problem. >> how is that legal? >> airlines can pocket the money because they kept the fares what they were before. they're not turning the money over to the federal government. those taxes aren't collected until the plane takes off with you in it. so there's the real issue here, what happens if you bought a ticket three or four weeks ago, paid the taxes but haven't left yet, do you get the taxes back. >> do you? >> nobody knows. >> that's what everybody is trying to figure out. what's amazing, too, and i feel like almost a broken record. we talk about this a lot. when there is talk about a fare increase, clearly airlines don't have a lot of goodwill i would say with the public these days. the public is frustrated, feel they don't get what they pay for and paying for everything. why not take this opportunity to win them over a little? >> isn't this ironic? the time they're pocketing this difference the airlines have been lobbying congress, please don't increase our taxes because it will kill the airline industry. a tax holiday, we'll take that money. not a good idea. >> we've talked about spirit airlines, you're not a huge fan but in this case. >> it's ironic the one airline that leads the pack in nickel and diming passengers says we're not going to keep the taxeses. we'll keep the fares down and taking the 7.5% off your fare. they need to be applauded. >> you can't help but laugh at the website, donttaxmero. >> they're charging the ancillary fees for pillows, checked bags. that doesn't get the 7.5% excise tax. the airlines are making more money from ancillary fees than they are from flying the planes. if they can figure out a way not to fly the planes they'd be great. >> wow, you made a lot of people very upset. >> thank you. >> but not in a bad way. so as you look at this, if you're buying a plane ticket today, you're essentially paying more. >> you are. i'm waiting for a class action suit. >> will it change anything you think? >> the lawyers will make the money in the class action suit. >> you'll get 82 cents. >> take your ticket to an arts supply institute, frame it and put it on the wall. >> peter greenberg always nice to have

of the sudden happened. this generation doesn't know what they can't do which is powerful, and social media and mogul media costs little to get into. myyearbook got into it for almost nothing and sold it for $100 million six years later. >> they convince people to give them a couple million dollars in startup funds and able to produce something along the lines. >> their parents really believe in them but aside from that what's happened is during the last dot-comand bust the gray hairs recognize young people are seeing opportunities in ways they don't and it's worth it for them to invest a few million dollars to take a shot at it. we're seeing profitability early on in the enterprises so they're coming up with an idea with a guy last night 21 years old started this business, taking off,

and seeing reward. >> zuckerberg and the guys that have billions of dollars that are so young, what's next? even for catherine what's next for these people, after they've made these millions at a young age, what do they do? >> i coach a lot of people who have made money that are young. they get a whole new set of friends and think they're their friends and they get through that stage they recognize this is as much a responsibility as it is a gift and they're trying to figure out what to do. there's a conference in new york with very wealthy people under the age of 30 trying to
