Reporter the first glitches in the system began to appear soon after the opening bell when orders for some smaller stocks failed to go through says trader peter tuckman. In the midst of trying to fix those problems, they laid out some kind of a new program to prevent this from happening and that may have caused the further technical glitch. Reporter a little after 11 30 the n. Y. S. E. Shut down the entire exchange to sort out the problem and canceled some 700,000 orders in the system. But as the wall street Trading Floor went silent, trades could still be executed on other exchanges. The markets didnt panic. Were not seeing overreaction. Were not seeing fear. Were running in a technically advanced world that does have problems sometimes. Reporter in august of 2013 the nasdaq was similarly paralyzed by a threehour shut down after a software upgrade. Steve grubman is chief technical officer with intel security.

Pelley Senior Business correspondent anthony mason, anthony, thanks very much. That problem you heard mentioned at the wall street journal, its web site crashed probably because so many folks were trying to find out what was happening with the Stock Exchange. The journal was offline for about an hour. At United Airlines, the computers went down about 9 00 a. M. Eastern time. Planes sat idle, coasttocoast. Kris van cleave is following this. Reporter the computer glitch paralyzed United Airlines, the nations second largest carrier for roughly 90 minutes. In los angeles, a long line of passengers stretched well past the terminal. It was a similar story in boise, idaho, and at chicago ohare airport. Crowds at the nashville airport ticket counter greeted Nancy Williams this morning. I walked up to the kiosk to just quickly put my bag through and everything was just blank. Reporter blank united says because of an issue with a router that knocked several systems offline. Passengers could not check in, employees reported flight plans could not be sent to cockpits and Crew Scheduling Software also stopped working. Josh marks advises airlines on their systems. And the airlines are so dependent on computers now its virtually impossible to operate without them. There are things that can be done by hand such as printing paper tickets or manually entering flight plans in an aircraft but it adds so much time to a given operation, that by the time you take that into account, the airline is usually just better off just canceling the flight. Reporter the pilot on a denver bound flight offered tours of the cockpit because one passenger tweeted we dont have anything better to do. Yall are wonderful people, thank you for your understanding. I really appreciate you very much. Thank you. Reporter by midafternoon, 800 flights were delayed and nearly 60 canceled as the airline tried to catch up during the busy Summer Travel season.

Despite emergency intervention by the communist government. Now theres a crisis of confidence in the market and in the leadership in beijing. Seth doane is our man in china.

The first hour is expected to be rough again today, more than 80 of investors here in china are socalled mom and pop outreach chain ease investors who got into a booming market. More than 4 million new investors got in in the month of may alone. And the government here has really worked as a sort of cheerleader encouraging people to invest. Money has been relatively cheap to get so pem have borrowed heavily to buy stocks. And as stock prices have slid, we have seen panic selling. Pelley and the Chinese Government is taking extraordinary measures to try to stop this. Reporter thats right. More than a third of the 2,800s companies on the countrys two main stock indexes here have been forced to stop trading. And the government has set up a massive 19 billion Stabilization Fund to try to buy up some of those shares and shore up the market. It so far has not really worked and thats creating fears here not only among average chinese but also within the ranks of the communist party, this, of course, scott is a country that is used to having total control over its economy. A place certainly that praises stability. Pelley seth doane in beijing at the start of another trading day there, seth, thanks very much. There was a shakeup today in the Baltimore Police department. Justice correspondent jeff pegues reports the commissioner was fired. So we need a change. Reporter mayor stephanie rawlingsblake announced the change that many said was long overdue.

Too many continue to die on our streets including three just last night and one lost earlier today. Families are tired of feeling this pain. Reporter batts had been in charge of the Police Department since 2012. In late april, he faced his biggest test after riots exploded in the city in the wake of the death of freddie gray in police custody. Six officers have since been charged in the case. That created a rift between batts and his officers. They accused him of putting them in harms way during the riots he was reported apologizing to the police union at a closed door meeting in may. Reporter despite the apology, some questioned whether police were easing up on arrests and protests. Homicides spiked in the weeks after the riots. There were 42 murders in may after 22 in april, and 15 in march. Just today that Police Officers union issued its report on the riots and strongly condemned batts leadership. Scott, with the rise in crime, its been a long summer for baltimore and the officers charged in freddie grays death will not be back in court until the fall.

Pelley weve been learning this week that the pentagon is falling far behind in the most important part of the strategy against isis. Training syrians and iraqis to do the fighting on the ground has turned out to be extraordinarily slow. So we asked david martin to look into this. Reporter at a hearing before the Senate Armed Services committee, defense secretary Ashton Carter disclosed that a 500 Million Program to train 15,000 Syrian Opposition fighters has gotten off to an embarrassingly slow start. With just 60 recruits in training. I said the number 60 and i can look out at your faces and you have the same reaction i do. Which is that that is an awfully small number. Reporter carter said 7,000 syrians have volunteered, but they first must go through screening designed to weed out extremists and those who want to use the american training and equipment not against isis, but against the Syrian Regime of bashar alassad. A fight the u. S. Wants no part of. Some who make it through the screening quit the training and go home. Said one u. S. Official, we are failing miserably. In iraq, the u. S. Has trained some 10,000 iraqi soldiers but that too is going slower than planned due to a shortage of recruits. More alarming is that iraqi troops in the field have, as in the recent battle for ramadi not been willing to stand and fight, even when they outnumber the enemy. That said joint chiefs chairman general Martin Dempsey is not a problem that can be solved by american advisors. If it takes us to stiffen their spine in the face of a threat that is existential to them, then it doesnt seem to me that they are going to be stiff. Reporter for now the most capable Ground Troops fighting on the u. S. Side are the kurds. With the help of air strikes they have regained territory in Northern Iraq and syria and are pushing toward the isis stronghold of raqqa. General dempsey has estimated it will take three years to push isis out of iraq. As for syria, scott, there is no timetable. Pelley david martin at the pentagon for us tonight, thank you.

For people with afib currently well managed on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto® and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. I tried warfarin before, but the blood testing routine and dietary restrictions had me off my game. Not this time. Not with xarelto®. Ill have another arnold palmer. Make mine a kevin nealon. Really, brian . Hey, safety first. Like all blood thinners, dont stop taking xarelto® without talking to your doctor as this may increase your risk of a blood clot or stroke.

She wanted to believe him because he was the only one giving her hope. Reporter but fata used his elite credentials and large practice as a smoke screen to dupe patients and fleece medicare and private insurers. He discouraged patients from getting second opinions and belittled them when he asked about his painful but always billable chemotherapy treatments. The doctor would send me down the hall in the waiting room which would be passed the i. C. U. Doors, in the waiting room so i wouldnt hear anything, but you could still hear it loud and clear. Reporter hear what . Her screams. Reporter when angela sought a job as a nurse for him she was alarmed by how the chemo drugs were being administered at his office.
