For some of you the news continues. For others, check back with us a little later for the morning news and cbs this morning. From the Broadcast Center in new this is the cbs overnight news. Welcome to the overnight news. The zika continues to spread through florida. Governor rick scott announced five new cases of the virus have been confirmed and all have come from mosquito bites. In the miami neighborhood of winwood at the center of the outbreak. But one other case was 265 miles away near tampa bay. Meanwhile, the governor is coming under fire from miamis mayor for the way he is handling the crisis. With the zika threat, you have pregnant women in florida considering relocating. Going somewhere else. Some have decided to do so. You have businesses like those in south beach who are worried with what the threat will do to pitch far the biggest headline has been the sizzling political feud between the mayor of miami beach and floridas governor. What the governor did, he not only blind sided me. For the third day in a row, the mayor took aim at Florida Governor rick scott. For failing to tell city leaders about zika cases on miami beach before he notified the public. I think it would be more useful in the public to let the elected administration know whats going on so we can take necessary steps. Governor scott fired back. I reached out to mayor levine and he didnt return my phone call. Two tourist areas in miamidade county. The winwood neighborhood and south beach are home to at least 37 locally transmitted zika cases. Katrina bernards third child is due in december. This isnt a cold. It is life or death. Outside the zika zones, she is scared to leave her home. What has instilled that fear . Seeing all these poor babies with micro krefly and seeing women have to make the choice to either not continue their pregnancy or to just be dealt a really hard hand. There are 69 pregnant we will in the state of florida who have been infected with zika. The disease has been linked to babies born with micro cephaly and can impact the size of a childrens head, causing seizures, developmental delays and additional mental and physical problems. You cant keep mosquito in addition box. She is also from the miami area. But earlier this month she relocated to chicago and she mans to stay there for the remainder of her pregnancy. You just inconvenience yourself so your baby is safe. Should we get a storm here, standing water after the storm transmitting the zika virus. Here in south beach, they will fine you for standing water. Even a little bit. Because mosquitos can breed in Something Like this, a bottle cap. More trouble on the campaign trail for Hillary Clinton. An investigation by the Associated Press shows that while clinton was secretary of state, more than half the people outside of government who met with her ended up donating money to the Clinton Foundation. Nearly two dozen donated more than a Million Dollars each. Thoughot give impression that donating to the Clinton Foundation was the price of admission for access to the secretary of state. Meanwhile, the start has been ordered to release another 15,000 emails from clintons personal server. They were turned up during an fbi investigation. Clinton aides say they dont know what is in these 15,000 emails and documents recovered from her servers by the fbi. Or how the lawyers missed them when they said they turned over 2014. On late night tv, she tried to make light of what has become a serious liability. Weve already released, i dont know, 30,000 plus. So whats a few more . Clinton tried to use humor. Have you considered using face time instead of email . Actually, actually, i think thats really good trump and his supporters didnt find it that funny. Now we learned about another 15,000 moise she failed to turn over and theyve just been discovered. On jimmy kimmel live, clinton tackled a trump attack. Take my pulse while im talking to you. Make sure im alive. Trump and his allies have repeatedly insinuated she is unwell. Physical stamina. Clintons doctors say she is in excellent health. It is part of the wacky strategy. Say all these crazy things and maybe you can get some people to believe you. Trump used the same approach to go after clintons charity on monday. The Clinton Foundation constitutes a clear example of racketeering, influence, corrupt organization enterprise. He insisted got faefrs from the Clinton State Department and he called for a special prosecutor. Criminality. Everybody knows it. The state department said, it is not true. We have seen no evidence of any behavior, any relations with the Clinton Foundation that werent completely above board. The form he president bill clinton did announce yesterday that he will stop raising money for the foundation, and step down from the board if his wife resisted some calls for them to shut down all together if she wins. They say that would deprive millions of people around the world of life saving medical treatments. Donald trump has canceled several Campaign Appearance this is week where he was expected to outline his new immigration policy. Donald trump denies what appears to be a clear move away from mass deportations. The best clue . Trump doesnt talk about it anymore and neither does anyone paid to speak on his behalf. What presidency would mean to an estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants in the u. S. Were going to build a wall, folks. Donald trump clung to that applause line like a rhetorical life raft in akron, ohio, amid muddy this calls to deport all undocumented u. S. Residents. He now talks of deporting only hardened criminals and and when i win, well get rid of all the bad ones. As far as everybody else, well go through the process. Trump would not say what that process was or how would it work but no longer insists it includes raids, arrests and lengthy deportation proceedings. You dont have to put them in a detention center. Im not going to do that. An Advisory Council informed trump of the logistics tied to deportations. Now he is dialing things back while simultaneously wooing minority voters. It is a disaster the way africanamericans are living in many cases, and in many cases, the way hispanics are living. I say it with such a deep felt feeling. What do you have to lose . Trump described a world of squalor and hopelessness offering himself as a potential savior. Countries that were fighting, and it is safer than living in some of our inner cities. These days. You are buying finish these days. I got a new dishwasher and they recommend finish. Really . You should try it. Unlike cascade gel, finish has active cleaning enzymes. Its unique powerball takes on anything. I used to blame the weather for my frizz. Turns out my curls needed to be stronger to fight back.

This back to school, limited time offer the Smithsonians National museum of africanamerican culture opens next month. And they were intent on finding a slave ship to put on display. The trouble is that none exists except at the bottom of the sea. Mozambique island defies the erosion of time. The portuguese colonist whos claimed it 500 years ago would still find the cut of the cloth that borrows the wind as familiar as the cut of the stone that framed their city. He came to this capital of the slave trade because he was new National Museum on the remains of a ship. I thought it wouldnt be hard. I called museums around the world and said, look, you must have some things. You must know where i can get some materials. Everybody said no. Almost every slave ship was at the end of its life so it is probably on the ocean floor. Then i got scared i thought i wont be able to find this. Mozambique island rises off the ocean south of the equator. It was one oe was called the triangular trade. Goods from europe to africa. Cotton, gold and tobacco back to the old. In the 1400s, the portuguese are the first europeans to trade in slaves and they became the largest. Followed by the english, french, spanish and dutch. On Mozambique Island, the portuguese built a fortress that they called st. Sebastian for captured, chained and martyred it was the only they know the portuguese trailed to grasp. When you look at the enormous effort that went into building this fort, they were protecting something that was hugely valuable to them. They recognized that the key to their future as nations was economic prosperity. They oversaw the of more than 400,000 slaves. He was certain there had to be evidence of a ship and he soon discovered, he was not the only one looking. He found a group of researchers calling themselves the slave reps project and they were following a lead. What do we final here . A very interesting thing. He is a mozambiquan archaeologist helping to locate used to put slaves inside, to put them out of the island as well. Reporter under the old portuguese town, tunnels connected holding pins. They preferred to keep slaves in transit out of sight. How were these slaves captured . Some individuals specialize in the capturing slaves. So they would raid villages far from here. And they walked them in chains from there to here a on the way. So these were africans capturing jampbs. Yes. It was not only a business for the portuguese. Also for some of the local chiefs as well. Those local chiefs came to this auction house to sell captives to european clients. A male in the late 18th century, early 19th century, would go anywhere from 600 to 1,500. 9,000 to 15,000 today. This was incredibly lucrative. In the years before the civil war, the. A money invested in slaves was more than the amount invest in the rail roads, banks and businesses combined. This was the economic engine of europe and the united states. By the time you got here the slaves marched from the auction ramp, down the ship. You had almost an assembly line. You bring people, you sell people, you would move them on to the boats and off to the new world. What does black america need to hear in your estimation from the echoes off these steps . I think all americans need recognize that as tragic and horrible as slavery was, as big an economic shadow as it casts, the one thing it didnt do was i wish that all of us were as strong as the people who walked down those steps and got on those boats. Were wading out into the tidal flats. If lonnie was to find his slave ship, he would need steve, the cofounder of the slave project. He is an an throw apologist from George Washington university who believes that slavery is the greatest story in maritime archaeology. Think about the way in which computers n our lives. It is not just, it doesnt affect just the computing industry. Everything is interlinked and depends on this. And the slave trade in its time was truly the equivalent. It reached into and influenced and created the modern world. Even so, it is not likely much has survived centuries under the sea. Were not talking about a hull that youll find down there we dont find intact ships. We find parts of ships. You have to go underneath the water, at some difficulty, find pieces, try to put them back together and put together story that you can. The story he was searching for wasnt discovered underneath the water. His ship was lost in the dry official records of cape town, south africa, which reach back to the 1600 the slave x project had been diving into these binders for months when they discovered the st. Joseph known in portuguese. It arrived in Mozambique Island in 1794. The cargo manifest records 1,500 iron bars for ballast and more than 400 slaves bound for brazil. This is a cargo sketch from a paul was an historian of slavery and curator of the smithsonian museum. Bodies and souls laid side by side with no room to move no, sanitation. Many people on these voyages died. How long was that journey . A journey like the one it took could take up to four or more months. This is slavery on industrial scale. From about 1500 through the 19th century, through the late 1800s, were talking about at least 12 million people. Off cape town, south africa, the captain of the ship was caught between a Violent Storm and a nautical chart spiked with warnings. Whittle rocks, bellows rock. The ship crashed. 212 slaves were killed. There was an investigation. They wanted to have independent verification. Interviews with survivors have survived. This is the crews account. Right here we have the captains account. And he signed his name here 220 years ago. Incredible. He said he decided to save the slaves and the people. The people are the crew. The slaves are just cargo. The investigation pinpointeded the site. In 2010, divers responding to a metal detector discovered bars of iron. One of those divers is an archaeologist with south africas museum, and his partner in founding the slave x project. He says these the iron bars we mentioned a moment ago on this ships manifest. Sand on the sea bottom of this was under the sand. So you were in how much water . About five meters of water. 15 to 20 feet of water. Thats correct. And these are two feet tunneled sand below that. Yes. It turns out, Shallow Water makes it harder. Surf tosses the divers and sand vacuumed away settles back within hours. But after more than 300 dives, this is what theyve recovered so far. These are nails that pin sheets of copper over the hull for protection. What looks like a lump of concrete is marine growth on a wooden pulley block. Similar to this one used to hoist sails and cargo. This xray shows the two white spaces where rope was threaded around the wheel. The divers discovered wood that a lab would later trace back to revealing artifact of all. Masked by two centuries under the sea, xrays show a shackle. Similar to this used to bind slaves.

Researchers are deliberately setting a wildfire. This is somethingou been able to observe with this type of experiment . Exactly. Reporter cameras capture flames from every angle to help scientists understand better how fires spread. There is an expression everyone uses in the u. S. I spreads like wildfire. But we dont even know how wildfire spreads. Reporter researchers with the u. S. Forest go Service Measure how fast plants and trees burn. It doesnt even require a flame just hot air.

But one other case was 265 miles away near tampa bay. Meanwhile, the governor is coming under fire from miamis mayor for the way he is handling the crisis. With the zika threat, you have pregnant women in florida considering relocating. Going somewhere else. Some have decided to do so. You have businesses like those in south beach who are worried with what the threat will do to them. This is one of the biggest but by far the biggest headline has been the sizzling political feud between the mayor of miami beach and floridas governor. What the governor did, he not only blind sided me. He blind sided our administration. For the third day in a row, the mayor took aim at Florida Governor rick scott. For failing to tell city leaders about zika cases on miami beach before he notified the public. I think it would be more useful in the public to let the elected leaders, let the administration know whats going on so we can take necessary step Governor Scott fired back. I reached out to mayor levine and he didnt return my phone call. Two tourist areas in miamidade county. The wynwood neighborhood and south beach are home to at least 37 locally transmitted zika cases. Katrina bernards third child is due in december. This isnt a cold. It is life or death.

An investigation by the Associated Press shows that while clinton was secretary of state, more than half the people outside of government who met with her ended up donating money to the Clinton Foundation. Nearly two dozen donated more than a Million Dollars each. Give impression that donating to the Clinton Foundation was the price of admission for access to the secretary of state. Meanwhile the state department has been ordered to release another 15,000 emails from clintons personal server. They were turned up during an fbi investigation. Clinton aides say they dont know what is in these 15,000 emails and documents recovered from her servers by the fbi. Or how the lawyers missed them when they said they turned over all her workrelated email in on late night tv, she tried to make light of what has become a serious liability. Weve already released, i dont know, 30,000 plus. So whats a few more . Clinton tried to use humor. Have you considered using face time instead of email . Actually, actually, i think thats really good advice. Trump and his supporters didnt find it that funny. Now we learned about another 15,000 emails she failed to turn over and theyve just been discovered. On jimmy kimmel live, clinton tackled a trump attack. Take my pulse while im talking to you. Make sure im alive. Trump and his allies have repeatedly insinuated she is unwell. She also lacks the mental and clintons doctors say she is in excellent health. It is part of the wacky strategy. Say all these crazy things and maybe you can get some people to believe you. Trump used the same approach to go after clintons charity on monday. The Clinton Foundation constitutes a clear example of racketeering, influence, corrupt organization enterprise. He insisted foundation owners got favors from the Clinton State Department and he called for a special prosecutor. Criminality. Everybody knows it. The state department said, it is not true.

The former president bill clinton did announce yesterday that he will stop raising money for the foundation, and step down from the board if his wife is elected president.

Donald trump has canceled several Campaign Appearance this is week where he was expected to outline his new immigration policy. Donald trump denies what appears to be a clear move away from mass deportations. The best clue . Trump doesnt talk about it anymore and neither does anyone paid to speak on his behalf. What is unclear is w presidency would mean to an estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants in the u. S. Were going to build a wall, folks. Donald trump clung to that applause line like a rhetorical life raft in akron, ohio, amid muddy explanations to deport all undocumented residents. Felons. The first thing well do if and when i win, well get rid of all the bad ones. As far as everybody else, well go through the process. Trump would not say what that process was or how would it work but no longer insists it includes raids, arrests and lengthy deportation proceedings. You dont have to put them in a detention center. Im not going to do that. An Advisory Council informed trump of the logistics tied to mass deportations. While simultaneously wooing minority voters. It is a disaster the way africanamericans are living in many cases, and in many cases, the way hispanics are living. I say it with such a deep felt feeling. What do you have to lose .

And they were intent on finding a slave ship to put on display. The trouble is that none exists except at the bottom of the sea. Erosion of time. The portuguese colonists who claimed it 500 years ago would still find the cut of the cloth that borrows the wind as familiar as the cut of the stone that framed their city. He came to this capital of the slave trade because he was determined to launch americas new National Museum on the i thought it wouldnt be hard. I called museums around the world and said, look, you must have some things. You must know where i can get some materials. Everybody said no. Almost every slave ship was at the end of its life so it is probably on the ocean floor. Then i got scared. I thought i wont be able to find this. Mozambique island rises off the ocean south of the equator. It was one of the points in what was called t goods from europe to africa. Slaves to the new world. Cotton, gold and tobacco back to the old. In the 1400s, the portuguese are the first europeans to trade in slaves and they became the largest. Followed by the english, french, spanish and dutch. On Mozambique Island, the portuguese built a fortress that they called st. Sebastian for captured, chained and murdered in rome in 208. It was the only they know the portuguese trailed to grasp. When you look at the enormous effort that went into building this fort, they were protecting something that was hugely valuable to them. They recognized that the key to their future as nations was economic prosperity. They oversaw the trafficking of more than 400,000 slaves. He was certain there had to be evidence of a ship and he soon discovered, he was not the only one looking. He found a group of researchers calling themselves the slave x project and they were following a lead. What do we final here . He is a mozambiquan archaeologist helping to locate the beginning of the story. This is a tunnel that was used to put slaves inside, to put them out of the island as well. Reporter under the old portuguese town, tunnels connected holding pins. The devout portuguese preferred to keep slaves in transit out of sight. How were these slaves captured . Some individuals specialize in the capturing slaves. So they would raid villages far from here. And they walked them in chains from there to here and lots died on the way. So these were africans capturing africans. Yes. It was not only a business for the portuguese. Also for some of the local chiefs as well. Those local chiefs came to this auction house to sell captives to european clients. A male in the late 18th century, early 19th century, would go anywhere from 600 to 1,500. 9,000 to 15,000 today. This was incredibly lucrative. In the years before the civil war, the amount of money invested in slaves was more than the amount invest in the rail roads, banks and businesses combined. This was the economic engine of europe and the united states. By the time you got here the slaves marched from the auction ramp, down here and to the ship. Almost an assembly line. You bring people, you sell people, you would move them on to the boats and off to the new world. What does black america need to hear in your estimation from the echoes off these steps . I think all americans need recognize that as tragic and horrible as slavery was, as big an economic shadow as it casts, strip people of their humanity. I wish that all of us were as strong as the people who walked down those steps and got on those boats. Were wading out into the tidal flats. If lonnie was to find his slave ship, he would need steve, the cofounder of the slave project. He is an an throw apologist from George Washington university who believes that slavery is the greatest story in maritime archaeology. Think about the way in which computers nowadays affect all of our lives. It is not just, it doesnt affect just the computing industry. Everything is interlinked and depends on this. And the slave trade in its time was truly the equivalent. It reached into and influenced and created the modern world. Even so, it is not likely much has survived centuries hull that youll find down there and masts and all of that that you would imagine. We dont find intact ships. We find parts of ships. You have to go underneath the water, at some difficulty, find pieces, try to put them back together and put together story that you can. The story he was searching for wasnt discovered underneath the water. His ship was lost in the dry official records of cape town, south africa, which reach back to the 1600s. The slave x project had been diving into these binders for months when they discovered the st. Joseph known in portuguese. It arrived in Mozambique Island in 1794. The cargo manifest records 1,500 iron bars for ballast and more than 400 slaves bound for this is a cargo sketch from a different but typical ship. Paul was an historian of slavery and curator of the smithsonian museum. Bodies and souls laid side by side with no room to move, no sanitation. Many people on these voyages died. How long was that journey . A journey like the one it took could take up to four or more months. This is slavery on a global, industrial scale. From about 1500 through the 19th century, through the late 1800s, were talking about at least 12 million people. Off cape town, south africa, the captain of the ship was caught between a Violent Storm warnings. Whittle rocks, bellows rock. The ship crashed. 212 slaves were killed. And because money had been lost, there was an investigation. They wanted to have independent verification. Interviews with survivors have survived. This is the crews account. Right here we have the captains account. And he signed his name here 220 years ago. Incredible. He said he decided to save the slaves and the people. The people are the crew. The slaves are just cargo. The 200yearold investigation pinpointedhe site. In 2010, divers responding to a metal detector discovered bars of iron. One of those divers is an archaeologist with south africas museum, and his partner in founding the slave x project. He says these the iron bars we mentioned a moment ago on this ships manifest. So you were excavating the sand on the sea bottom of this was under the sand. So you were in how much water . About five meters of water. 15 to 20 feet of water. Thats correct. And these are two feet tunneled sand below that. Yes. It turns out, Shallow Water makes it harder. Surf tosses the divers and sand vacuumed away settles back within hours. But after more than 300 dives, this is what theyve recovered so far. T sheets of copper over the hull for protection. What looks like a lump of concrete is marine growth on a wooden pulley block. Similar to this one used to hoist sails and cargo. This xray shows the two white spaces where rope was threaded the divers discovered wood that a lab would later trace back to mozambique. And this may be the most revealing artifact of all. Masked by two centuries under the sea, xrays show a shackle. Similar to this used to bind slaves. You can see the full report on our website.

Usually when a child gets out of an air strike, theyre crying. These children cannot go to school. Often they cant even to go hospitals because they are also targets. Like the one shown here on the Security Camera video. The hospital that was struck in aleppo last month. And if children do make it to a medical facility, treatment is children cant overcome these serious injuries, the doctor says, because their bodies are too weak. And parents are faced with the Impossible Task of making children who have only ever known war, feel safe. At least the mother and father survived the air strike.

Negotiate a 48hour truce so californias blue cut fire is now contained but not before it destroyed more than 100 homes. A new technique to battle the flames. Reporter inside a laboratory tucked away in missoula, montana, researc a deliberately setting a wildfire. This is something youve only been able to observe with this type of experiment . Exactly. Reporter cameras capture flames from every angle to help scientists understand better how fires spread. There is an expression everyone uses in the u. S. It spreads like wildfire. But we dont even know how wildfire spreads. Reporter researchers with the u. S. Forest Service Measure how fast plants and trees burn. It doesnt even require a flame to ignite. No. Just hot air. Reporter and they study how wind. Show motion video shows how it forms peaks and troughs. So those dips are where the fire is advancing . Thats right. And it is pushing the names down. Reporter but his Research Shows more needs to be done outside the lab to cut down on the number of large wildfires. He says the current approach of putting out every fire is not working. If we truly want to manage fire, rather than have it us, we need to get out there well before those fires and conditions. Reporter the Forest Service spent an unprecedented 1. 7 billion that burn a record 10. 1 million acres last year. Are we making it worse . We are. By fighting these fires, we enter whats called the fire paradox. The harder you try to suppress them, the worse they get. Reporter under normal conditions, fires thin out for us. But by constantly putting them he says firefighters should be intentionally setting more socalled prescribed fires to burn off excess vegetation, or simply let some natural fires burn. In a statement to cbs news, the Forest Service says it agrees managed and prescribed fires are important tools. But our capacity to complete this work is restricted by the congress. The agency says there are liability issues with state and local governments, as more developers push to build homes closer to fire prone areas. Fire is inevitable. If we convince ourselves it is not, then we have a are pete every year of the same situation. Reporter for now, scientists hope by setting these controlled fires in the lab, theyll better understand how to manage them in the forest. Carter evans, missoula, montana.
