(CBS/AP) CAIRO – Egypt’s official news agency said the country’s top generals are holding an “emergency meeting” to discuss the surprise decision by the president to recall the dissolved, Islamist-dominated parliament. The Middle East News Agency said the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces that comprises top military chiefs was meeting Sunday to “review and discuss the consequences” of President Mohammed Morsi’s decision earlier today. Morsi on Sunday ordered the country’s Islamist-dominated parliament to reconvene in defiance of a military decree dissolving the legislature last month following a court ruling that a third of its members were illegally elected, the state news agency reported. The decree by Morsi, a longtime Muslim Brotherhood member and Egypt’s first democratically-elected president, also called for new parliamentary elections to be held within 60 days of the adoption of a new constitution for the country, which is not expected before late this year.

(CBS/AP) ANKARA, Turkey – NATO will hold emergency talks on Tuesday to discuss Syria’s downing of a Turkish jet fighter, but the alliance is not expected to take military action, even if it confirms Turkey’s claim that the unarmed plane was attacked in international airspace. The incident has further raised regional tensions over the conflict in Syria, where some 40 people were reported killed Sunday in new clashes between rebels and government troops. On Sunday, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton sharply criticized Syria for downing the Turkish plane, which Turkey’s Foreign Ministry called an “open and grave violation of international law” that would justify retaliation. Wreckage of downed Turkish jet foundTurkey threatens action over downed jetTurkey: Military jet missing over sea near Syria “The United States condemns this brazen and unacceptable act in the strongest possible terms,” Clinton said in Washington. “It is yet another reflection of the Syrian authorities’ callous disregard for international norms, human life, and peace and security.” Meanwhile, a Turkish official said Monday that dozens of members of Syria’s military had defected to Turkey overnight with their families. The state-run Anadolu news agency said 33 soldiers crossed into Turkey overnight and the group – 224 people in all – included several high ranking officers.

From garages to basements to a hole-in-the wall neighborhood bar, every musician started somewhere — played his or her songs for people in the hopes that maybe the right person could be listening and a career could be born. “Early Show” Contributor Ayla Brown has the story of one place where that is more likely to happen than just about any other. It’s called The Bluebird Cafe, and what makes this place so special is the people who sit in the audience, and the rich history of some pretty big singer/songwriters who have been discovered on its stage. They don’t call it music city for nothing. Nashville, Tennessee is the epicenter of country — one of the most popular forms of American music there is. For all the honky tonks and music bars that line the streets of downtown Nashville, there is one place that stands alone. “If you are a songwriter or a performing songwriter, you absolutely must come to The Bluebird. If you haven’t played the Bluebird, you really haven’t established yourself in town,” said music publisher Jennifer Johnson. The Bluebird Cafe — an unassuming little venue in a strip mall on the outskirts of town — is the place to play. Not because the stage is so great, Brown said, adding, “It’s not, it’s kind of small and cramped. And it’s not the acoustics. No, the...
