to keep wearing our shades. >> reporter: the sun, like we've never seen it. turbulent, constantly erupting, new images revealing a restless power. huge arcs of fire reach into space. in the past few years scientists have been getting ever more detailed pictures. the sun, of course, makes life possible on earth but now and again, these great explosions send damaging clouds of particles our way. until now, we haven't always known they're coming. from earth, we can never get a view all around the sun but it's where some of the biggest eruptions start. now, to try to do this, two spacecraft were launched five years ago and are now directly opposite each other. for the first time, images can be taken in 3d and all around the sun. we may get early warning of possible trouble. this footage captures a great blast of highly charged particles surging around mercury on the right and then around venus. this shot shows the eruption reaching us on earth, the blue

dot in the center of the screen. researchers call this space weather and it can prove devastating. electrical supplies can be disrupted, so can satellites. solar storm destabilizing our magnetic field, which is why scientists want to keep a constant watch. >> what we really want to do is to be able to see exactly what the sun's doing. we want to be able to watch regions on the sun as they grow and evolve and we want to see them as the sun rotates and brings these regions of activity towards -- pointing towards the earth. >> reporter: this nasa mission using british cameras is set to run for many more years. all the time building up an understanding of how the sun works. how its eruptions can be forecast. and producing sights that most of us could never have imagined. david shukman, bbc news. >> we look so cool. >> just too cool. let's not even talk. >> bask in the sun. >> look cool, baby.3q

this morning on "world news now," political pressure from protesters in egypt. >> they want president hosni mubarak to be forced out right now. but is the timing right? it's tuesday, february 8th. >> announcer: from abc news, this is "world news now." >> good morning and thanks for being with us on this tuesday. i'm vinita nair. >> i'm rob nelson. those demands on mubarak came as he met with his cabinet which sent a message to the world that he's still in charge, at least for now. we have a look at what's going on behind the scenes. also ahead, a very close call here involving an american airlines jet and two military planes. just take a look at those images. they are frightening. how a whistle-blower called attention to a scary situation in the skies. later in the show, an eye-opening new link in the

childhood obesity link. does starting your babies on solid food too early make them overweight babies? a story for all the moms to check out there. >> i have a niece who has just gone to solid food so i need to watch that as well. >> check it out. we begin with the protests in egypt, now entering their third week. thousands of demonstrators say they will not leave until president mubarak leaves. >> but the egyptian leader shows no signs he's going anywhere. abc's aaron katersky joins us from giza, egypt. >> reporter: good morning. as if the last two weeks hadn't happened, president mubarak appeared on state television presiding over a cabinet meeting. and the government raised salaries for public sector workers, sure to be welcome news after the economy here crumbled during civil unrest that now enters its third week. tourism, key to the economy, is just nonexistent. i'm here in giza at the pyramids. an extraordinary sight.

these are why 15 million people around the world come to egypt, but now not a single tourist. it's just guarded by the military. there's tension here between those who want the upheaval to end and demonstrators who doubt the government will really change as long as mubarak is still in charge. today protest organizers have called for another large-scale demonstration. they're the biggest factor of political life here now. they don't want to lose momentum. vinita? >> so, what about this google executive that we're hearing about? there must be such a sense of relief he's finally been released. >> reporter: wael ghonim said freedom is a blessing and it's worth fighting for, on his twitter page. he was detained ten days, took on some symbolic leadership of the protest and brought straight to tahrir square, welcomed by the protesters. in an interview he simply broke down when he learned that all of the people that have been -- that have been killed here.

he broke down in tears. said he didn't mean for it to happen. he blamed the government. the protests under his symbolic leadership continue. >> his apologies certainly say a lot about him. aaron, thank you. and the uprising in egypt is hitting home this morning. in your wallet. gas prices are up across the country. an average of three cents a gallon. the average price for a gallon of gas is $3.13. analysts say the cost went up due to uncertainty in egypt, which controls the suez canal, which is heavily used by oil industry. demand is up worldwide as the economy gets better. to the very close call involving a packed airliner and two military cargo planes. federal aviation investigators are looking into the incident which happened three weeks ago near new york city. lisa stark has the details. >> reporter: an american airlines jumbo jet with 259 passengers and crew had taken off from jfk airport and was climbing. two c-17 military cargo planes in the area were descending. a miscommunication between two controllers ends up sending the

jets to the same altitude, 22,000 feet. in radio transcripts obtained by "the new york post," the c-17 controller tells the other controller, i said stop the american at 21,000. but it's too late. a collision alert in the american airlines cockpit warns the pilots to descend. they do. narrowly avoiding a midair disaster. the c-17 pilot, "this is going it to be close." the american pilot, "that was not good." the planes were less than one mile apart horizontally and just 200 feet apart in altitude. >> the impact of a breakdown in communications can be very serious. in this circumstance, technology stepped in within the aircraft and saved the day. >> reporter: this comes as a former manager at the center alleges he was demoted after trying to clean up practices there. in a whistleblower complaint

obtained by abc news, evan sealy alleges controllers working just three hours out of an eight-hour shift. work slowdowns to drive up overtime and attempts to take breaks and potentially create dangerous situations where one controller was working too many aircraft. the union calls these wild, baseless allegations. and says the controllers put safety as their top priority at all times. both the whistleblower allegation and the near miss remain under investigation. but the faa points out that extremely close calls are rare, there were 44 of them last year. that's out of more than 100 million operations. lisa stark, abc news, reagan national airport. >> way too close a call there. the axe is falling on 500 workers at continental airlines. former headquarters in houston. the layoff had been anticipated since the merger between continental and united airlines. many managers and clerical workers are losing their job in houston. after the merger, the airlines'

headquarters will be in chicago. two brothers from a los angeles area are facing charges in connection with a major counterfeiting ring. their arrests came after police seized phoney ipods, iphones and other electronics worth millions of dollars. the counterfeit devices arrived in parts and were apparently assembled and packaged in l.a. warehouses. the suspects have pleaded not guilty. the nfl season just ended but planning for next year's super bowl in indianapolis is already well under way. in some ways super bowl xlvi can't help but be better than sunday's edition. >> particularly for hundreds of fans who had tickets but no seats. john hendren is in washington with details. >> reporter: it's an 1,100-mile to arlington, texas, from green bay, wisconsin. it's 1,200 from pittsburgh. imagine driving all that way with your super bowl tickets and arriving to be told your seats

aren't ready. it was a super-sized seat snafu. >> we want our seats! we want our seats! >> reporter: 400 fans, some who drove more than 1,000 miles, were left outside of the super bowl. >> we drove from green bay, wisconsin, through bad, bad weather to get here. and we can't get in. they're holding them like animals. >> reporter: another 850 were moved. the fire marshal said their seats weren't ready. >> we apologized to those fans. we take full responsibility for that as putting on this game. but the one thing we will never do is compromise safety. >> reporter: the rest got refunds for three times the seat's value but for many fans, no price was worth missing the game of the year. >> we have this letter refunding our money back, which we don't care about. we just want our seats. >> reporter: christina aguilera had already set the mood for a super bowl full of gaffes of gargantuan proportion by botching the national anthem. the bit about the twilight's last gleaming she sang it twice. ♪ at the twilight's last

gleaming ♪ >> reporter: skipping the ramparts and gallantly streaming. halftime the black-eyed peas had mike problems. demonstrating in the most carefully orchestrated game of the year, not all the fumbles are on the field. christina aguilera was apologetic. she said i got so caught up in the moment, i lost my place. when it comes to that song, it may be a while before she gets another chance to find it. >> nfl has a good memory on which cities do a great job, which ones don't. we'll see what happens in your home state. as you know, the packers topped the steelers and today they'll celebrate with all the fans. >> plenty of cheeseheads grabbed shovels yesterday to help get the snow out of green bay's lambeau field. today thousands are expected to join the team for a public victory party. >> the stadium hasn't been used since early january. of course, you remember the packers won three playoff games on the road before beating pittsburgh sunday night to win it all.

>> i have a feeling i know how they stayed warm while doing all that. >> yes, solid theory. to the tuesday forecast. in the northeast with a mix of rain and snow from philadelphia to boston. lake-effect snow from detroit to buffalo. heavy snow from rockies to kansas. up to 10 inches around denver, amarillo and oklahoma city. behind the storm, up to 35 degrees colder than normal. >> 6 degrees in colorado springs. 8 in kansas city. and zero in omaha. 30s from boston to baltimore. 45 in atlanta. 14 in billings. 47 in seattle. well, it's boy meets girl in south florida but no sparks are flying just yet. >> oz and abby are two koalas at the palm beach zoo. they had their first official date, but it wasn't much of a love connection, actually. abby cast quite a few glances at oz, but oz was more interested in his eucalyptus leaves. bad call, dude. >> zoo keepers say like most male koalas, he's a little lazy so abby might have to make the first move. don't do it. this sets the tone for the relationship. they hope cuddly babies are on the horizon.

>> women can make the first move every now and then -- >> sets the tone. sets the tone. tone.'ll fight it out. sets the tone. >> we'll fight it out. hd 3. [ doctor ] here's some health information for people over 50.

didn't matter when a breast fed baby was introduced, they didn't change but researchers discovered formula-fed babies introduced to solids before 4 months are six times more likely to become obese by age 3 than a baby given solids after 5 months. how could one month make such a difference? >> in the short life of a baby things are changing very rapidly. >> reporter: researchers are trying to find out how those changes affect a baby's chance of becoming obese. at every age there is a hurdle for parents trying to raise healthier kids. we learned first lady michelle obama has been quietly petitioning restaurants to rethink their children's menu. consider an average 8-year-old should consume 1,500 calories a day. ruby tuesday's kids' mac and cheese has half a day's calories. applebee's mini cheeseburgers, 720 calories. add kid sized fries and milk, almost a day's calories in a

single meal. >> junk food with pepperoni pizzas, cheese everywhere, soda pop in huge cups. that's the way to raise an obese generation of kids. and we're doing a pretty good job of it. >> reporter: sharyn alfonsi, abc news, new york. >> this comes on the heels of a news a few days ago a doctor saying we feed kids rice cereal too much, that's a bad carbohydrate leading to obesity. lots of advice out there for what not to feed the kids. >> they did poll mothers. they asked mothers what their babies were eating at certain marks of life. a lot of time you think this research doesn't correspond with real kids. this was done with real kids. >> absolutely. this is the one year anniversary of when michelle obama launched her anti-obesity initiative. hopefully we're getting thinner and healthier. how mary-kate and ashley olsen's younger sister is stepping out of their shadow. r shadow. younger sister is

stepping out of their shadow.

welcome back, everybody. before last month's sundance film festival, elizabeth olsen was known as the younger sister of mary-kate and ashley olsen and now she's stepping out of their shadow. >> she looks exactly like the two of them. peter travers hosted abc's "popcorn" sat down to talk to her about her two hit films from sundance. >> reporter: welcome to the show. >> thank you. >> reporter: i don't know which one to start with. "the silent house" is scary. >> horror genre. >> reporter: horror. >> it is a lot more complex than a horror genre film. it's -- the catch is that it's shot in one shot. it's all in real-time. so, that's what was exciting to me about the part because it

kind of blends the stamina you need for theater with film. >> reporter: but your other film also doesn't have -- it's not horror. >> it's not. >> reporter: but it's pretty chilling. >> yes. i think -- i think it would be more like a psychological thriller and very robert altman-esque. >> reporter: we should explain a little about -- >> yes, it's about a girl -- >> reporter: -- who's been in a cult. >> yes, been in a cult. really no good relationship with her family. but then the cult turns a little too abusive. as much as she wants to believe these people are living a very peaceful life, she realizes that some of the things she witnesses are not moral. so, she leaves without -- you know, she runs away. no one knows -- she's not really allowed to leave. she calls her sister. she hasn't seen in two years played by sarah paulson. and she tries to reassimilate, but is so ashamed and confused about what's happened to her that she doesn't talk about it.

but she has -- but she has these things that are inherent in her personality that the -- that the cult did kind of like shape into her morale. so, sarah paulson's character as my sister, lucy, doesn't really know how to handle it. and is bothered by it. also, the audience doesn't know how to handle it either. >> reporter: explain how you got into all this. we know your sisters are and that you grew up doing this in a family that was working. >> yes. >> reporter: but when did it hit you that this was what you wanted to be? >> when i was 7 or 8 i started doing kids musical theater, that i have videos for that are really awful. >> reporter: oh, i would kill for those. >> but i lived doing that. i looked forward every single summer. we did it during the school year also. i was a dancer. and i just tried to do anything i could perform.

i loved performing. i was -- i was that one in the family. as much as my sisters were always on set and working, i was the one who was like, wait, wait, look at this show i just created. >> reporter: so, you're going in a different direction than mary-kate and ashley are going. >> yes, yes. >> reporter: this is it. >> yeah. >> reporter: there's no business side to you? >> no. my sisters are amazing businesswomen. >> reporter: they are. >> seven days a week they're at an office. >> reporter: they're an empire. >> yeah. every time -- because we both live -- all three of us live very close to each other. i always want to hang out when i free time in between, you know, school or something. and they're like, oh, we're at the office. lunch breaks are at their office and then they have to go to a meeting. they work their butts off. i just -- all i wanted to do was be an actor. >> reporter: last question i ask everybody on the show. sing a little piece of a song that's in their head or means something to them, special meaning. >> okay. let's see.

there's -- what's his -- tom -- why can't -- ♪ a little bit ♪ let it all hang down ♪ broken every rule let it all fall down ♪ who's -- ♪ a good man is hard to find only strangers sleep in my bed ♪ why can't i think of it? >> reporter: are you -- >> liz in my family but no one else calls me liz. only my family calls me liz. i never really liked it. but my family calls me liz. >> reporter: then i'm saying, thank you, elizabeth. >> great meeting you. thanks so much. >> i never knew there was even a third olsen sister until this. apparently she's three years younger than her better-known twins. what a star-studded family. she got her start in a way starring in some of her older sisters' big movies. >> can you imagine? >> now she's doing it on her own. >> she mentioned school. of the three she's the only one that finished. she went to nyu. the other two also went to nyu but they took leaves of absences.

mr. obama delivering a speech to the chamber seemed unthinkable just a few months ago. the white house and the chamber sparred throughout the fall, with the president accusing the chamber of funneling foreign money into american elections. >> are you going to let special interests from wall street and washington and maybe places beyond our shores come to this state? and tell us who our senators should be? >> reporter: chamber president tom donahue has been a frequent vocal critic of the white house on health care and financial reform. the president was conciliatory and he acknowledged that businesses are still facing tough times. >> i understand the significance of your obligations to your shareholders and the pressures that are created by quarterly reports. i get it. >> reporter: it was part of a concerted effort by the white house to work with the business community to create jobs and stimulate economic growth. but mr. obama's message, especially on government regulation, was met with skepticism. >> the devil's in the details. how fast is it going to happen?

what regulations are we going to talk about? >> reporter: president obama urged american businesses to spend money to create jobs. his message was simple. now is the time to invest in america. rob and vinita? turning now to egypt this morning. new figures from the group human rights watch show that nearly 300 people have died since political protests began there two weeks ago. embattled president hosni mubarak met with his reshuffled cabinet yesterday in a clear message he is staying put, at least for now. and the obama administration agrees mubarak should not step down right away. meanwhile, a top executive at google is back with family and friends this morning after being held in egypt for two weeks. wael ghonim cried as he described the emotional ordeal in a tv interview hours after being freed. he confirmed he was behind the facebook page which helped sparked the demonstration.

kabobs, but he's still carrying his smith and wesson. the signs of the unrest are everywhere. but now with a palpable calm as parents once again took their kids out for ice cream, enjoying the peace that has been so absent. alex marquardt, abc news, cairo. from egypt to mexico, three teenagers, two americans were shot and killed in a border city wracked by violence. the boys were gunned down while looking at cars at a dealership in juarez. two were students at an el paso high school. so far police have no motives. juarez, across the border from el paso, is considered one of the world's most dangerous cities. we shift gears to a story is that has all of us talking this morning. a 65-year-old man in the seattle area was arrested, accused of robbing a gas station. >> what makes this story different is he apologized profusely throughout the entire robbery saying he needed the money to help his kids.

>> how about i give you $40? >> well, i can't do that, sir. i've got rent to pay. i have bills. and the kids need to eat. >> reporter: henry handed over $300 in cash, genuinely believing the suspect needed money but highly skeptical for what reason. >> he told me he needed the money for his kids. he looked like 65 years old. it's not true. you know, because if you're 65 years old, you are not going to have kids. >> reporter: the robbery happened around 11:30 saturday morning. the man did nothing to conceal his identity. his every move captured by 14 surveillance cameras inside and outside the gas station. before he calmly walked away, he made john henry a promise. >> thank you very much. i appreciate it. and i really am sorry. if i ever get back on my feet again, sir, i'll bring it back. >> and that report from komo's ray lane. now, criminal records indicate the suspect has already been convicted of another armed robbery. that was back in 2004. and he did three years behind bars. kind of a sad, bizarre story. it's funny too, on his way out,

bush and i both pressed to have him leave the country at the end. and he wouldn't. i wanted to avoid a war and so did the president. >> reporter: as we watched them publicly, rumsfeld says we didn't know the president's personal kindness. he writes in the book that two of his three children had problems with addiction. right after 9/11 he's in the president's office. his son had been struggling with drugs and at times would disappear. the president said you were in tears. >> i think that's right. he reached out and said, you know, tell me about it. you start talking about it and it's hard to talk about it. because it's a wonderful human being that you love. and you want them to be better.

and he is, god bless him. >> reporter: in our interview, there are other times donald rumsfeld wept, talking about his wife, his father and the fighting spirit of a fallen soldier. as we walk, we stop at a corridor. artists' portraits of 300 faces of the many who have fallen. >> each one, a different life, different circumstance. god bless them. well, you're dealing with lives. it is a very difficult thing to ask people to go into battle. >> reporter: hard to live with? >> well -- >> reporter: have you done it? is it hard to live with? >> i have so much respect for the men and women in uniform, they're all volunteers, all asked to serve. each one said, send me. >> reporter: robert mcnamara said of vietnam, we were wrong. we were wrong. >> that's not the case with iraq. that's not the case with iraq.

i think the world's a better place with saddam hussein gone and with the taliban gone and the al qaeda out of afghanistan. >> just hearing that interview i think it's evident what the tone of the book is going to be like when you read the memoir, which comes out today.
