Thousands of people remain evacuated from their homes this morning including in this neighborhood where embers from a small brush fire in the hills nearby were carried here yesterday by those gusting winds and torched this home.

Rough time out there for a lot of californians. Janet, thank you. In addition to the historic winds, other parts of the country today will see heavy rain and possible flash flooding. On friday, emergency crews worked to fix power lines that came down when an apparent tornado cut through mobile county, alabama. There are no reports of any serious injuries. Meteorologist Jeff Berardelli has more on the nations weather there and elsewhere. Good morning. Good morning, everyone. I do want to start in the west. There is no exaggeration here. This is likely to be the strongest wind event of the season by far starting tonight into tomorrow. You can see all the alerts that are out right now. High wind warnings, red flag warnings. Let me tell you why this is happening. High pressures going to be building in later today and tonight. Behind this front right here. Now its going to tap very dry air which is in the inner Mountain West and force it down the hillsides. As the wind rolls down the hill, it accelerates, it also compresses because were forcing this wind downward. And by doing that, it warms up and it dries out the soil making it very flammable. So here are the winds not as barzee today, but not as breezy today, but watch, winds will start gusting over 70, possibly as high as 80 Miles Per Hour in the foothills of the sierranevada and north bay. The wind will translate south into Southern California later tomorrow, tomorrow night, into monday morning. Lets put this in perspective. Because of a warmer climate, the risk for western wildfires has been going up. Fire season is two to three months longer than it used to be. The area burned has doubled since the 1970s. The risk is increasing due to warmer air, drier vegetation, and more homes in prone areas for fires. Now on the other side of the country, its the complete opposite. We had a tropical depression that died overnight last night merging with a front, causing a lot of heavy rain. That means a miserable night in places like the great lakes, chicago, green bay, detroit. Tomorrow, a stormy sunday for the big cities right here in the east. Thank you. Nobody can escape.

The vermont senator was in iowa and says he feels better than ever after undergoing heart surgery. Sanders is focusing his message in iowa on his fight against corporate greed. He tells cbs news he believes the wealthiest americans are addicted to money and are willing to exploit the working class to further enrich themselves. We are in situations where Companies Cut back on the health care of their workers or the wages of their workers in order to give, you know, unbelievably large compensation packages to their ceos or do stock buybacks which enrich their stockholders at the expense of the workers. So greed for some of these people has literally become a religion. I need more, more, more. Like a drug addict.

First, heres a look at the weather for your weekend. For many students one reason to get a College Degree is to have the chance to make a good living. For most, a degree also means debt. This year, about 70 of College Students graduated with Student Loan Debt averaging around 33,000 per student and totaling more than 1. 6 trillion nationwide.

We could do as well as 100,000 or plus with the right shop, the right amount of work, the right amount of education, the right amount of dedication. Would be. Thats more than comfortable. Reporter the school opened this year. A 43 million custombuilt facility with specialized classrooms. Like this fully equipped restaurant kitchen designed to mimic realworld settings where the learning is lands on. Students is hands on. Students are volunteers and must attend and pass regular High School Classes to get their diploma. And while some students may go on to college, others here will go right to jobs. That was a tough sell for principal mark morgan. I get the sense a lot of parents are not always comfortable with the idea of not going from high school right to college. So for parents were trying to educate, as well, that what really matters is having a successful plan where a student will graduate high school and go into a career where they can be happy and healthy and something that can sustain them. What areas are you experiencing pain in . My leg hurts. Okay. So that sounds like something within your scope to go ahead and help her with.

Reporter whats the demand for these students in terms of people looking to hire them . They want them yesterday basically. Reporter it took a lot of work to create an aircraft mechanics class. First, they needed aircraft. They bought a used 1981 helicopter and two planes that were flown to a nearby airport and then at dawn on a sunday morning, towed to the school.

I absolutely love it. Im a very visual learner. Im a very handson learner. You can go inside, like you can see all the open engines, you can see how it works. How this fits together, how this doesnt work. It can affect just a little bit of the engine or the entire thing. Reporter the school got faa approval to graduate certified aircraft mechanics. Training that instructor David Williamson says can be very pricey. If these kids had to go to a school, what would it cost them to get the certification . About 40,000. Reporter really . Really. Reporter and this is basically free. Basically free, yes, sir. Reporter are there jobs out there when they walk out of here . Yeah, theres plenty of jobs out there. Reporter another skill students learn how to succeed after theyve landed a job. So 30 of every students grade on this campus is about professional skills. It goes to work ethic, showing up to work on time, what it means to truly collaborate, what it means to lead and to be led. Reporter and thats the real lesson taught here that success can be a good career with good pay and doing what you love. It is life changing. Reporter for cbs this morning saturday, barry petersen, centennial, colorado. You know, if you ever see on line, it will say like here are the six jobs that pay a lot that you dont a lot of these jobs are in there.

Hello . Sorry, honey. [ telephone beeps ] butt dial. Tomorrow marks 100 years since president Woodrow Wilson vetoed the volstead act. One day later on october 28th, 1919, the house and senate overrode that veto and america suddenly had a law to enforce prohibition. The legacy of prohibition which lasted 14 years is a huge part of our nations history. But there are reports that sometimes get overlooked or ignored. For example, who was andrew j. Volstead, the author of the act, and what parts of america did prohibition create that still exist today . The stars of prohibition have been glamorized for the last 100 years. Al capone entered Chicago Court at the height of his career and leaves still king of bootleggers. Reporter al capone, meyer lansky, and bugsy siegel speak easies that popped up across the country allowing people to flout the nations new absolutist approach. Theres bootlegged liquor on every american lip. Shiny flask on every hip. Reporter but the people and places that still thrive in movies and pop culture are only part of the story. 100 years later, what do people not understand about prohibition . I think what people dont understand about prohibition is the very serious and longlasting legacies of the law. Reporter lisa mcgur is a legal professor and author of the war on alcohol. The 1920s saw a vast upsurge in federal power, and after 1933, that power did not diminish, it simply took on new directions. One of those directions was policing and surveillance. The prison industry vastly expanded. So many of the kind of legacies that we live with were established during prohibition. Reporter americas new look and the rise of a large government was born perhaps more than anywhere else inside a small town. The modest woodframed home where congressman Andrew Volstead lived. Did the man who banned alcohol in the u. S. Drink . Yes. Reporter melaine gabbert gatchel is a historian at the museum in granite falls. You would be surprised how many people who come here arent aware of who he is. Theyre like, hes a guy who didnt like alcohol. Reporter because people know what prohibition is, they dont know who volstead was. Yes, they hear its the 100th anniversary but dont know the plan behind it. Reporter Andrew Volstead and will other progressives thought bars allowed men to drink their paychecks away, while the family suffered. In some cases was abused at home. Women are suffering from the blows of drunken husbands as in the days when the saloon had right of way. Reporter he felt strongly that morality could be legislated . Yes. Reporter theyd been legislating morality since the bible. Heres one other law you should follow it. Reporter a social group of conservatives were also worried about the countrys direction. Remember, this is a period between 188 9 and 1920 millions of immigrants entering the country. Theres anxiety among protestant middleclass men and women over how the immigrants are changing the face of the nation, including their leisure and drinking habits. Reporter despite its expanding power, the federal government struggled to enforce prohibition which led to unwelcome opportunities for others. The ku klux klan recruited during the 1920s instrumentalizing the vold stead act and arguing if the federal government, state, and your local police are not able to rein in violations, we will. Reporter he was the most hated man in america. Yes. Reporter he did not look like a sympathetic character which worked against him. No, he didnt. Reporter volstead became the face of everything going wrong. He didnt take into account peoples personal a dictions he didnt take into that there seems to be a problem when the government tries to tinker with peoples personal choices. Yes, yes, exactly. You know, because youre taking away peoples rights to actually decide for themselves. Reporter melaine gabbert gatchel believes volstead was well intended. She continues to share his story as lisa educates on the wider, longlasting impact of the 18th amendment. Was any part of prohibition a success . It is known that in the wake of the law, consumption seemed to have declined. After prohibition, the level of consumption declined by about 30 from what it was in about 1914. You can say that w a positive impact. Prohibition is repealed. Reporter beyond that, mcgur says before prohibition saloons were basically men only, bars that emerged after welcomed everyone. Its the moment where women really come out in a large way in these spaces and creates essentially the kind of social form of leisure weve known since. Reporter the world we live in today. Yes, exactly. We normally have cocktails at 8 30. Right. We have coffee here. Didnt know so much of that. Whats interesting, though, that women largely put the volstead act into law, and yet, the flip side of it was the bar scene was now open to women it was an odd combination of social progressives and serves who came together to push for prohibition. Now on the timeline, basically the 18th amendment, only 111 words. The volstead act that codified and executed the 18th amendment, the volstead act was 25 pages long. The raeason they picked volstea is because he was such a good law writer which is why it lasted as long as it did last. Again, the legacy continues. Amazing that they were able to pull this over. It lasted for 14 years. If you are heading out the door, dont forget, it wont take 14 years, set your dvr. You can record cbs this morning saturday.

For 60 years, hes been addicted to being in the action. Chaos, but i love it. Reporter thriving in conflict, whether its a street protest, a street battle, or a war. What are you looking for when you look through that lens . Obviously the ultimate statement, that hits you straight in the face. It says what the hell is all this abou reporter a photograph mccullin says has to come at you like a highspeed train. I love this quote of yours, i want my images to contaminate your thoughts because they contaminated mine. Its a bit of honesty really. I mean, why should i suffer on my own . Reporter many of mccullins most striking images are now on exhibit at the Howard Greenberg gallery in new york city. That was my first day in vietnam. Reporter he went to vietnam many times. In 1968 to cover one of the longest infantry battles of the war, the brutal fight for whey. His photo of a shellshocked marine would become one of his most famous. How many images did you take of him . Five. Reporter just five . Five. I just went click, click, click, click, and the man never batted an eyelid. Reporter he also covered the war and famine in beafra. Allied units reporter and the conflict in cambodia. You were almost kill friday cambodia killed in cambodia. I walked into an ambush. Reporter he was put in this truck with the injured. You almost died. The man who is dying is dying at the moment i took that picture. Reporter as you take this picture, youre wounded. But im only wounded in the legs. Im not dying. Reporter youre still taking pictures i think it took my mind away. I thought this is an opportunity to show yet another phase of suffering and war. Reporter mccullins empathy came from his own poverty. There is where i grew up as a boy in north london. Reporter in his recent memoir, unreasonable behavior, mccullin admits he has a chip on his shoulder about it. My father died when i was 13. In total misery and poverty. I wanted to overcome his this sorrow in our family. Reporter in 1958, he took this picture of local gang members who were later thought to be involved in a murder. And i took the photographs for a newspaper. They said, did you take this photograph . I said, i did. They said, well, were going to publish it. Reporter you remember all of these assignments . Every single detail. If i could only remember the literature i read the way i understand photography. Reporter it must burn into you in some way. This stuff is part of my bone marrow. Reporter you are frequently called a war photographer. Which i detest actually. Reporter why . I suffer terrible conscience about the way ive chosen the last six years of my life. You know, i go to wars, i see the innocent dying. You know, i feel like caesar who is wearing comfortable laurels. You know, war is total madness really. And youre in that war, and you are part of the mad hatters tea party. Reporter do you ask yourself every time you go why youre going . Lets not be deceitful here. First of all, the adrenaline rush was exciting. Particularly when you got away with it. Reporter i know what you mean in terms of the rush you get. Even fear can be exciting. Reporter he knows all forms of fear. The british author, john lacare has said hes an expert at it. So photography kind of duped me in some ways. Led me down places you wouldnt normally go. Why did i do it . I dont think i can honestly answer the question. Reporter in the 90s, mccullin began to shoot winter landscapes around his home in rural england. This is beautiful. Yeah. I took this on my way to a hospital where one of my children were being born. I stopped the car and got out. Ran across the fields and did this picture. And then carried on to the hospital to see my new child. Reporter they are stunning but stark. Somebody said was it lecare that fids . Your landscapes are battle thats right. Reporter in the fields around Don Mccullins home, the photographer known for war has found some peace. It was my psychiatrist, it was me curing myself by just embracing the landscape.

Hair yet, based on the life of Harriet Tubman opened to an enthusiastic crowd in the very place thats home to some of her precious possessions. The Smithsonian National museum of africanamerican history and culture. Harriet speaks to truths rarely share god about tubman a her journey from shrivlavery to freedom. Some of americas most hall you on owed ground, the makers sheared their inspiration. God dont make people to own people. Reporter Cynthia Erivo plays Harriet Tubman. I think it will be a sigh of relief to know her work wasnt in vain. Reporter for years three years, the slaveborn character came into focus through the lens of director and cowriter k. C. Lemons. She accomplished so much just on determination. She was iliteral, she could neither read nor write, yet was able to accomplish amazing feats of courage. This was resistance. You still see people trying to create some fantasy about what slavery was like and people were won tent. People wanted to escape. They were willing to risk their lives. Reporter led through the underground railroad, the network of secret routes and safe houses that brought slaves to the north, she then became one of its most successful conductors, rescuing more than 300 people before the civil war ready . Reporter some 700 after it started. We cant go there way. Theres danger. Reporter while her actions were heroic, lemon said her motivation was more basic. One thing we know, she was motivated by love. I come to get you. Bring all of you to freedom. She was motivated by love of her husband, love of her family, and really feeling like if she was free they should be, too. Reporter this is a familiar walk for you. All the time. This is my hood. Reporter we caught up with lemons and her own family at the lenox coffee sharp in harlem. A family affair. Reporter her husband, producer vandy hall and her son star in the movie. Did you have it in mind, all through of you, we want in . Hunter was teasing me, leaning over high shoulder going, doesnt harriet have sidekicks . Reporter in fact, she did. A union spy named walter plowdy but he placed him much earlier in tubmans life. Why should i trust you, walter . Most folks definitely should not. Such a great character. I was like, god, i need to play this. Reporter was that an uphill battle for you . Winning over your mom . I mean, moms is definitely like dont mess up my movie. Like, do not mess up my movie. Maybe nobody knows youre gone. Maybe you sneak back before daylight i aint going back. I want to be free. Reporter Vondie Curtis Hall is the reverend samuel green, ally of runaway slaves including t tubman himself. Hes not what he seems at first. Was it hard to play that duplicity . I think about reverend green, for me to see that you think this and youve he turns out to be such an integral part of the underground railroad. Harriet, welcome to the underground railroad. Reporter what is it like to work with him whats it like to work for her . Work for her ooh. Yeah. I really like working for her because shes so specific with her vision. Sometimes i feel like a prop, but sometimes sometimes, you know, she really gives you the opportunity to sort of stretch. Reporter shot on location in virginia, not in tubmans native state of maryland, lemons claims cast and crew alike still felt an otherworldly connection. We shot on plantations where there had been 1,000 slaves, and you could feel it, you could feel it in the air and in the ground. But it wasnt a terrible thing. It was a celebration of the people that had lived and worked and loved and died there. Somehow you could feel their strength. So being cold and wet in the woods, we just got a little tiny taste of what it must have like to be alone with no shelter, hiding. Reporter 30 years in the business, lemons has really done it all, writing, producing is this electric reporter even acting in such blockbusters as silence of the lambs. How do you kill someone with voodoo . Reporter it was her directorial debut in the 1997 film eves bayou that earned her critical and commercial success. Still it didnt bring an onslaught of opportunities in the directors chair. Fi harriet is her fifth directing credit in over 20 years. How did you sell it . The idea of Harriet Tubman as a young kind of action hero which was inherent to the story. It wasnt imposed on it because thats what she was, you know. You got lucky, harriet. And theres nothing more you can do. Dont you tell me what i cant do. I made it this far on my own. God was watching, but my feet was my own running, bleeding, climbing, nearly drown, nothing to eat for days and days. But i made it. Reporter for this generation, what should harriet mean . Fighting apathy. I mean, i find that theres a lot of apathy in this generation. And i understand because the problems of the world seem so insurmountable. I understand you just want to put your head down. My favorite Harriet Tubman quote is she said, i prayed to god to make me Strong Enough to fight. And thats what i prayed for ever since. And thats what i think we need we have to fight, for our country, for the planet. We have to fight for the future. We have to fight for children. We have to fight for our rights. We have a lot of fights. So, yeah, pray to god to make you Strong Enough to fight. Well, consider this Harriet Tubman was just 52 tall. She was a spy, she was a nurse, she was a cook, and she was a fighter in the civil war. She fought for womens suffrage. This i love you know, she was married before she ran away. And she ended up, by the end of her life, to be married married to a man 22 years her junior. Wow. So here she is dying at the age of 91, and her last words were, i go to prepare a place for you. This movie comes out november 1st. So i want both of you it looks amazing. Id love to see it. It is an important film. It looks amazing. I love the story behind it. And lemons, too, her family, that even that part of it the directing. Yeah. And her husband. Yeah. Its crazy because i met lemons 30 years ago. We were extras in a movie together. Five heartbeats. We learned that her cousin my cousin is her best friend. It was the craziest thing goodness, gracious. Six degrees of separation of Michelle Miller. Full disclosure. Wow. All right. Coming up, the healing power of music. Well take you to atlanta where a special program is lifting the spirits of some young hospital patients. And next week on cbs this morning, flee has been the basis for the red hot chile peppers for years. Hes opening up about the wild life before his days of rock stardom. Pretty wild during rock stardom, too. Well hear about his autobiography. Youre watching cbs this morning saturday. Looks like the movies. Bruce springsteen transformed this more than 100yearold barn into a concert hall, complete with 30piece orchestra for his new film western stars. Heading out of heartache and pain its part documentary, its part concert, its part love story to me. How do you describe it . It doesnt quite have a genre because its a mixture of a performance film. But theres all these sort of met tative pieces where we made the film between each song that hopefully givers gives a deeper meaning of what theyre about. Here we find my brother in heartbreak. Reporter those moments between the music is where the singer songwriter reveals more of himself. Intro to tucson train, i spent my 10,000 hours and then some learning my musical craft. But i spent a lot more time than that. Some 35 years trying to learn how to let go of the destructive parts of my character. I think after all the years of reflection and struggle that you have, you still find it a struggle. It never stops. I mean reporter never . No, of course not. Thats life. You know, life its that way until you go into the box. I dont think its supposed to stop, you know. Reporter but bruce, i want to get to the point where i dont want to struggle anymore. I just dont. Honestly. I just dont. When you get there, let me know. Let me know how you got there. Peect harmony. His half hour in songs for kid is an organization that brings music to children battling serious illnesses. They perform for kids in hospitals in an effort to give them the strength to fight on. We traveled to atlanta to meet the man behind the music. Do you ever feel feel so paper thin to josh rifkind, music is a powerful prescription for healing. From the first moment of knocking on a door and when they watch their kid smile and start to rock its like a le preserver being thrown out. Yay dont stop believing reporter believing he could make a difference, rifkind launched songs for kids in 2013 when a roadtrip. And we traveled the whole year around the country performing at nearly every Childrens Hospital in the united states. The one thing about our job is it promotes very direct Human Connection immediately. It was something that like i chose to do. Reporter songs for kids first connected with Anderson Krieger by handing him a guitar. Battling cancer for seven years, music helped him cope with monthsf hospitalizations. They could give me all the medicine they wanted, take my blood, but i could do this if i wanted to do this. Reporter you controlled the music. Yeah. Reporter from bedside sessions, rifkind builds bonds that can help leave these patients away from the darkness of their disease. Theyll finally get up with us, and then they wont leave the stage. They literally will not leave. They might have to go to treatment or therapy, but theyre like, im singing a few more songs. Reporter earlier this year, rifkind opened the songs for kids center in atlanta. A safe space where kids facing serious conditions can take Music Lessons or write a song expressing what theyre going through. Reporter its been a lifeline for 13yearold marie. Physical abuse as an infant damaged her spinal cord. Shes already endured 19 surgeries. Weve seen our daughter miss out on so many things while shes engaged in her battle. Josh is somebody whos a hero because hes going back for kids who would have otherwise gotten left behind. Yeah. Reporter whats it like to work with josh . Ill enter the door, and hes like, whats happening, guys . Its refreshing because you can be yourself around him. Reporter rifkind has found his calling. A decade ago he was managing proffer essential musicians but professional musicians but felt unfulfilled. Son of a surgeon, he grew up idolizing his dad. High found a way to combine the things he loved most, music and medicine. I love the fact regular people can make an impact. Reporter these days rifkinds famous friends often stop by when theyre in town. In august the Backstreet Boys led a singalong. I want that way i definitely love, love, love the Backstreet Boys. Reporter really good. Yes, really good. Reporter songs for kids has touched thousands of lives. Supported primarily through private donations, theyve never charged for anything. What is that moment like when you see a kid light up . You just get chills. All the time. Its so moving, and you would think after 13 years, oh, ive seen that. Reporter right. So i am numb to the experience it is like a new experience all the time. Yeah reporter his energy is amazing. And marie, who was in that piece, i watched her light up. So shy, and then you saw her performing her song, and it really is amazing. Do not underestimate the ability of this group. They obviously need money. So if you like the story, go help them. I know were not supposed to pitch things like that, but do. Great cause. Heres a look at the weather for your weekend. Up next, the dish with midwestul star shauna sever. Youre watching cbs this morning saturday. Life is better with you whoa whoa whoa whoa life is better with you whoa whoa whoa whoa life is better with you i know just one thing is true. Life is better with you look a door to another dimen. Oh, no, just a bag. Train insane, or remain the same. Phew well never totally figure them out. But we do know what makes them happy. Meow mix.

Move up to fluzone highdose. See your doctor or pharmacist and ask for it by name. This morning on the dish the best of the midwest from cookbook author and tv personality shauna sever. Raised in illinois, sever always remembered the treats she enjoyed as a kid. What do you think of those pictures . For a time she worked as a broadcast journalist covering the entertainment industry. But she eventually started a blog that focused on baking. Is that where i know you from . That led to her current work as a food expert for broadcasts such as nprs splendid table and food and wine. Just this week she released her latest midwest baking, and we welcome you to the dish. Good morning. Thank you. Its a pleasure to be here. What you got here . Wow. Well, lets start lets start with our fruit salad actually. This is what i like to call my sweet and spicy fall fruit salad. Weve got some great fall and winter fruits in here. It has a dressing on it which a lot of fruit salads dont. A spice infused dressing on the salad. We have, lets go over to this end here. To the cucumber salad. This is a midwestern classic. So when you have a garden, lots of cucumbers, this is what youre going to make with the greek yogurt dressing, pickled red onion. We have quick bread here which is in the savory chapter of the book. We have savory baked goods. Lots of wisconsin sharp cheddar, beer background. The brisket is what i like to call a german braised brisket. Rather than any Barbecue Sauce with vinegar, were going to use sauerkraut for the tang. Apple sauce for sweetness. This is a roasted pear and crumpkin soup perfect for fall. There is a poke cake. It is sort of a modern twist from scratch version of that kitschy retro classic. The midwest had such an impact on you, and as somebody whos from here, the food really is different. Why did you feel the need, though, to create the book that you have now after having such a varied background . To be honest, the great Tony Morrison said if im going to ruin this quote but if you cant find the book you want to read, you have to write it, right . So when i moved back to the midwest after living in california for 13 years, i wanted to sort of have an heirloom recipe collection that could tell the story of foods they grew up with and others grew up with. There wasnt a book quite like it. I think a big part is the immigrant influences that are so deeply embedded in the region that we dont even know that theyre there. That was the fun part for me is pulling out the roots of all of these things i really took for granted for a long time. How do you go from broadcast journalism . Do you want to make the switch . No. No, truthfully, i worked on entertainment news. After a while it felt a little thin, you know. And i got into food, sort of the very beginning of food blogs, as a way to remember where i came from. And i was in l. A. At the time, but it really helped connect me to home. And then that sort of grew. I started writing recipes professionally, and then started writing books. You can be assured, this is sick. Delicious. And we we missed this piece the cocktail. Yes. Anyone watching in nebraska now knows what this is. Right here. This is red beer. So its sort of like a mexicanm i m miclelada. If youre going to drink in the morning tomato juice. To work on the hangover you had the might a midwestern bloody mary basically. You know, growing up, did you know obviously food came in later. I guess, what was food to you when you were a kid . For so many of us it was comfort. It was everything. I grew up in a really big family. And the suburbs of chicago. My grandfather did a ton of cooking. Greek and italian. We always had lots of pasta. Lots of breads and delicious things. So food for me was it was home. It was connection. And it was family. Thats what youve created here certainly. Thank you. Lets have you sign the dish. Yes, of course. If you could have this meal with anyone past or present, who would it be . It would have to be my grandparents. I mean, making this book, i felt like they were with me the entire time. And i wish that they were here to see it. And know that i brought my kids back to the midwest. My grandma would love that, to know. She pass good a year before we passed about a year before we moved back. I. Her with me the entire time making this book. Wonderful. Congratulations on the book.
