administration's also promising new guidelines for federal law enforcement to help racial profiling end once and for all. it's calling for better tracking of military equipment provided to local police departments and seeing $263 million for more training and for those body cameras we've talked about so police confrontations of people can now be recorded. well, attorney general eric holder was here in atlanta for a first in a series of nationwide conversations on the ferguson shootings. he has opened two civil rights investigations into the case, as you know. he says the case presents an opportunity now to tackle issues that have long been ignored. >> as we've seen around the country, there have been large numbers of incidents in response to the american people -- not just in those areas but the american people to wonder what's

going on here. what is it we feed to do differently. >> now, holder's appearance still drew protests, both outside and even inside the meeting at ebenezer baptist church where martin luther king jr. had briefed. it's important to note after the disturbance he said peaceful civil disobedience is what it's all about and, "i ain't mad at you." protests over the ferguson played out in cities all across the u.s. on monday. our george howell has more on from ferguson. >> what do we want? >> justice. >> reporter: protesters marched from coast to coast, one week after a grand jury decided not to indict officer darren wilson.

in ferguson, missouri, residents voiced their frustrations. >> we are -- >> reporter: to demonstrations in d.c. protesters are making sure their message is heard. some gathered outside the justice department, even blocking some streets. >> for them to be inconvenienced for 20 minutes is only testament to how the lives of people are stopped every day. >> reporter: at sunday's nfl game, five familirams player har hands up. >> we wanted to come out and show our respect to the protest and people that have actually been doing a heck of a job around the world. >> we just wanted to let the community know we support them. >> reporter: but the st. louis police officers association condemned the players action saying it is unthinkable

hometown athletes would so publicly perpetuate a narrative that's been disproven over and over again." despite pleas to discipline the players, the nfl said none of the players will be punished saying, quote, we respect and understand the concerns of all individuals who have expressed views on this tragic situation. george howell, cnn, ferguson, missouri. >> and now to another big story we're tracking for you, the fbi is putting businesses on alert for a new hacking threat and official says this new threat is the same type of malicious software that has affected sony's computer systems last week. at least five of sony's unreleased movies have appeared online as a result of that and questions are surfacing whether north korea is to blame. >> reporter: it's a hollywood romp with the perfect villain. >> i have a gift for you. >> tiger ser killing me.

>> he's a crazy cute. >> reporter: in "the interview." james franco and seth rogen are recruited by the cia to assassinate kim jong-un. >> be alone in a room and the cia would love it if you could take him out. >> hmm? >> take him up. >> for coffee? >> reporter: when the north koreans got word of it they called it undisguised krichl and vowed a strong and merciless terrorism. they're dealing with a massive cyberattack. corporate e-mailers have been crippled and screener movies including "fury" soon posted on illicit websites. experts say the attack is very damaging? >> for an entity like sony their movie especially ones that haven't been released are the keys to the king dom and want to

protect more than anything. >> reporter: sony is exploring the possibility hackers working for north korea possibility operating from china could be behind the attack. a north korean official at the u.n. would not comment and a group calling itself the guardians of peace said they perpetrated the attack. could north korea carry out this sophisticated attack. >> they can buy hackers on demand and go out to the free market and can you say, this is what i want to have happen. here's a certain amount of money, just make it happen. >> reporter: experts say kim jong-un like his father is a voracious consumer of western movies but doesn't mean they can take a joke. >> when they see themselves being ridiculed these media forms they love it must really hurt them more than sanctioned by the united states or by the u.n. security council. >> reporter: contacted by cnn sony would only say it's a criminal matter and working with law enforcement to address it. the fbi confirms it is investigating the sony hack.

meanwhile, experts say sony will likely lose millions of dollars this holiday season from people viewing illegal downloads of those movies online rather than going to theaters. brian todd, cnn, washington. the fbi is warning members of the u.s. military that isis or its sympathizers may be plan ago tacks against them on u.s. soil. the bureau is asking military personnel to be careful about their personal information posted on social media. jim sciutto has more. >> reporter: an attacker shoots a xhaden citizen dead in ottawa. another runs over two soldiers with his car, killing one. both attackers inspired by isis allegedly. now a new fbi bulletin warns isis members are spotting and assessing like-minded individuals in the u.s. who would carry out attacks on the

american military on u.s. soil. the first time an fbi bulletin has included such a warning and cites attacks s is in canada. >> all commanders are concerned about it, reminding them on a daily basis to be careful of their familiar surroundings. >> reporter: they're reminding the military to be aware of and review their online social media postings, as well. goal, to make themselves less of a target to a terror group with an unrivaled and aggressive information. bulletin obtained by cnn advising them "to use caution and practice operational security when posting." one grave concern of u.s. counter terror officials so-called lone wolf attacks require very little planning and little, if any, direct contact with isis commanders abroad. >> the new phenomenon i see that

i'm concerned about is somebody who has never met another member of that terrorist organization, never trained at one of the camps, you know, who is simply inspired by the social media, the literature, the propaganda, the message to commit an act of violence in this country. >> reporter: u.s. law enforcement posted this warning now in advance of the upcoming holiday season. many members of the u.s. military travel in uniform. jim sciutto, cnn, washington. >> now to a developing story coming to cnn out of east africa. al shabaab militants are suspected of carrying out another massacre. 36 people's bodies were found in a quarry just a few kilometers from mandera. ktn reports 20 gunmen were targeted and killed 28 people in

a bus attack in mandera just last month. we'll bring you developments as they come available. still to come, protesters in hong kong are struggling to find ways to push their demands. we'll tell you the latest move by one of the prominent faces of the movement and what it means. plus, an online retailer is getting a little extra help this holiday season. we'll talk robots and how they work coming up. why ray rice's wife says her husband deserves a second chance in the national football league.

welcome back. the stakes are being raised in hong kong between protesters and the government. one of the most prominent faces of the movement is now on a hunger strike with two other students and say they won't stop until the government responds to their demands for a free election. their action comes after some of the worst violence to hit the protests in weeks. our senior international correspondent ivan watson joins us live from hong kong with the latest. it's past 3:00 p.m. where you are. this has gone on for almost two months. what's new today? >> well, we're just getting news of an announcement by three of the founders of the occupy central movement. they have released a press release, giving a press

conference any minute now and they they basically announced what they'll do is plan to hand themselves over to the hong kong police at 3:00 p.m. local time on wednesday. there are no indications that the police are actually searching for these three individuals. though the authorities here have said that this sit-in this protest move s illegal. what's more important about their press release is that it goes on to urge the students of this protest movement to retreat, to put down deep roots in the community and transform the movement to extend -- to extend this umbrella movement so you've got a call from, you could describe them as the elders of this occupy central movement, the founders of the movement telling the university, the high school students who have been really at the forefront of the protest movement that's enough. it's time to move on to another stage of this process of civil

disobedience. what will the response be from the student leaders themselfs? there have been divisions in the past over tactics and strategies between some of the elder leaders and some of the student leaders. for one, we have the 18-year-old leader of the scholarship movement joshua wong who has announced he is now going on hunger strike to try to put more pressure on the government to give in to his demands for more democratic reforms. take a listen to what he had to say earlier today. >> translator: on behalf of the chief executive hoping we will take care of our bodies we hope he can face the core of the problem, we're hoping for a chance to meet our officials. we are hoping for the public to support us in admiralty tonight. it is already to stay here at temperatures dropping to 40

degrees celsius and harder to stay with a hunger strike but we will stay strong. >> reporter: so here you have a new tactic being used by a group three of the student leaders of this protest movement, a hunger strike and this is after they have conceded that their efforts earlier this week to try to encircle and blockade the government failed. that the hong kong police very quickly succeeded in crushing this attempt by some protesters to expand their occupy movement and clearly some of the protest leaders, arlingtothey're recogne more it's unpopular it's gotten. meanwhile, c.y. leung is the top man in hong kong when asked about the hunger strike he responded and said that i hope the students involved can take their of care health, especially in this cold weather.

errol? >> an interesting development there ivan. you know, in addition to joshua wong saying he's on a hunger strike to hear these occupy central leaders essentially giving themselves up, speaks to what i was going to ask you about, i mean, all of these weeks the students seem to have lost a bit of momentum. i was wondering if they were getting desperate because local support for their cause has also diminished. >> reporter: i do think that -- and they've actually conceded that they have failed in some places. that they've failed at trying to basically besiege the headquarters of the hong kong government which their sit-in is right next to but that their attempts to try to paralyze the government as they put it to try to incur more democratic reforms that that failed and now clearly another tactic which smacks of desperation basically starving

one's self in order to get the government to agree to their demands for elections in 2017, for their to be universal suffrage there and for beijing not to have veto power over the candidates who could run for that top office. neither the central government in china nor c.y. leung, the chief executive in hong kong have shown any signs of being willing to give in to any discussion renegotiation of the rules for that 2017 election which are basically at the base of this entire dispute and have helped trig they are entire and very remarkable tent city that has been in place here for more than two months now. >> just unprecedented events, unprecedented scenes there in hong kong and ivan watson live with that latest development where they plan to give themes

up in 24 hours from now. good to see you, thanks. other stories we're following. there is yet more fallout for bill cosby as he continues to deny allegations of sexual misconduct. he resigned from temple university's board of trustees on monday. he attended temple and held that post for 32 years. in a statement he said he wanted to do what's in the best interest of the university. another of cosby's accusers is telling her story. janice dickinson claims cosby assaulted her in 1982 after giving her a pill and a glass of wine. >> i am here for those women. i think having the support of me telling my side of the story will only add for perhaps more women to come out or perhaps lend to these women my account of the story. it could give them validity. i want to validate these women

and i want to applaud them for their courage. if i can be there for them, amen. >> now, cosby's lawyer says dickinson is lying and contradicting what she wrote in her autobiography and spoke to cnn about those allegations. interested to see what she said an it was an emotional interview head over to cnn.com. now, a u.s. republican aide is now out of a job after her comments about president obama's daughters went viral and quickly. in a facebook post back on thanksgiving, elizabeth lauten skoelted the teenage girls tore lacking class and told them like you deserve respect and hot a spot at a bar and deleted it after the backlash and wrote another apologizing but on monday resigned as communications director for a tennessee representative. imagine her job was

communications. now, just days after an arbitrator lifted ray rice's pro football suspension, the world is now hearing from his wife. janay rice says her husband deserves a second chance in the nfl. nbc's "today" show aired her first interview since video emerged of her then fiance punching her in the face and earlier video showed him dragging an unconscious janay out after he hit her. she says it was an isolated ago of violence but won't happen again. >> was there ever any incident of violence in your relationship with ray or has there been any incident of violence since that -- >> no. >> -- elevator incident. >> no. >> no, there's no way. he know what he would have to deal w you know, if this was something -- i'm not going to sit there in silence and let something happen to me and, you know, god forbid in front of my

child. >> the sports network espn says four teams have expressed interest in signing him but for now appears unlikely he will play this season. all right. still to come here on cnn, the holiday shopping season, it's going high-tech. see what company is using these robots to fulfill orders. plus, our meteorologist ivan cabrera will be along to tell us about some welcome weather for those watching in california. ivan. >> it is the rain they've been waiting-for-months. it is going to come down heavily, though. that's the problem and i think some areas will be experiencing some significant flooding. we'll have the details coming up. stay with us. you're watching cnn. i have a cold

with terrible chest congestion. better take something. theraflu severe cold doesn't treat chest congestion. really? new alka-seltzer plus day powder rushes relief to your worst cold symptoms plus chest congestion. oh, what a relief it is. here we go! get to t-mobile and knock out your gift list. with zero down and zero interest on all the hottest gifts. like the samsung galaxy note 4 and the note 10.1, plus the beats solo 2, the ue boom and more. yep all of them, zero down, zero interest. we know, we're out of control. looks like the big guys job just got easier.

errol. now, after a disappointing holiday shopping weekend at the malls millions turned to the web, the internet in search of cyber monday bargains. ibm bench mark reports sales jumped 8.1% from 2013 but that's less than half of 2013's year-to-year increase likely because many cyber monday deals start extra early and extend through the week. amazon.com wants to make sure all those orders get out to shoppers fast. the company is now using a robot army to move merchandise through their warehouses. a quick look at how it works.

>> the system serves a core function, enabling the very rapid picking of products for customer orders and drives to the associates and ready right when it's time to go to the customer. a robot brings up a storage pod for an associate to put inventory into so ready available for the customer to ship and on the other side when a customer places an order the drive unit will bring the inventory to the associate to be picked. in the past an order may have taken an hour and a half to get through our total system to go to customers. now we get them in as little as under 15 minutes in some cases out to customers. they are about like nfl linemen. sort of 350 pounds, lift about 750 pound, fast and super efficient. ♪ >> the automation approach we take is all about using automation to improve and to

help the job. not replacing associates doing their job, it's making the job more efficient and helping support them for delivering customer orders this holiday season. >> we're very excited about kiva and very excited about unmanned aerial vehicles and think there's the ability to use those devices for ultra fast delivery to customers is right there and is actually feasible and we're going to be ready to do it when we get clearance to do it. i think you'll see a world where unmanned vehicles are delivering packages in under 30 minutes. >> interesting stuff. now u.s. transportation officials are addressing the extra long security lines at chicago's midway airport on sunday. at one point it reached almost 2 kilometer as cording to a reporter for komo-tv. the tsa says it did not open checkpoints early enough. take a look at some pictures. even they know more passengers would be coming through.

that's why it doesn't make sense and says staffing was less than anticipated sunday morning. the sunday after thanksgiving is one of the busiest travel days of the year in the u.s. so kind of ridiculous. a powerful storm bringing heavy rain to cali. ivan cabrera is here to discuss that. it's welcomed. >> and the lines at the airport will be an issue here. i think they will have delays with that, of course. >> will you start off with a bad note? a positive note -- >> the positive thing they're getting rainfall. we have the dark lining here as usual here. let's go to the boards and show you what's going to happen with california and this low, this upper low that will park itself to the west here. errol, what it'll do, pull this ribbon of moisture coming right from the tropics and that is going to be resulting in very heavy rainfall over the next couple of days. we're thinking anywhere from 2 to as much as 4 inches. higher elevations will get wrung out with additional moisture that comes down the mountainside

and have problems with flash flooding and mudslides here and then, of course, even worse will be areas that have been affected by fires in recent months. those areas, of course, can no longer absorb the water so it's going to run off even more so. the radar right now, you begin to see the showers, lighter showers beginning to move into l.a. this is nothing compared to what's coming later on today. later on this afternoon, the rain is going to be coming down, significantly i think in fact some areas will be picking up rainfall rates as much as half an inch an hour. that's a problem here because we cannot absorb that moisture in such a short amount of time and have two areas, a low to the north that will bring rainfall through wednesday to central and northern california and then this southern band here that's going to hit southern california with the heaviest rain as we head through today. by wednesday the rain actually ends down to the south and it continues pouring up to the north so that's why the totals here could be anywhere from 2 to

as much as 5 inches. so flash flood watches in effect for the entire area as you can imagine and sandbagging and ready to go, yes, exceptional drought, we need the rain, we will take this, but we have to monitor conditions very closely because i think it'll come down very quickly and cause some problem, as well. >> the thing is when it's been suffering from drought for so long the ground doesn't absorb that water when it comes down so quickly and get those flash flood situations. ivan cabrera keeping a close eye on it. thanks a lot. still to come for you on cnn, we saw in the michael brown shooting how people recall different things from the same event. we'll take a closer look at why eyewitness accounts can vary so much. and the captain of the capsized "costa concordia" will finally give his version what have happened nearly three years ago. a preview of that next. a bike r i didn't think i'd have a heart attack. but i did. i'm mike,

thanks tore staying with us on cnn, everyone. i'm errol barnett. our headlines begin with information that's new to us that we brought you this hour. three founders of hong kong's occupy central movement say they will surrender to police on wednesday. the men are urging protesting students to retreat and, in fact, what you're seeing now is what our ivan watson alluded to this past half hour. those leaders of the movement are holding a press conference now explaining why they're handing themselves in or surrendering you could say. this move comes a day after the city saw some of the worst violence in weeks. we will bring you more information as we listen in to the press conference. other headlines for you now,

al shabaab militants are suspected of killing 36 quarry workers in north even kenya. the victims' bodies were found just a few kilometers from mandera. they killed some last month. $263 million in additional police funding is asked for to buy body cameras for law enforcement to record confrontations like the one in ferguson, missouri where a police officer shot and killed an unarmed black teen. now, one of the key issues in the ferguson shooting is whether teenager michael brown really was surrendering when officer darren wilson shot him. several people who were there tell different stories. so why do eyewitness accounts of the same exact event sometimes have varying or drastically different reports of what took place? our kyung lah has a report on that.

>> joined by the rest. >> reporter: the now universal sign of the protests, st. louis rams igniting a firestorm of their own on national television. the grand jury ultimately rejected this notion, saying it lacked probable cause that an unarmed michael brown had his happens up in surrender. >> [ bleep ]. >> reporter: but how is it in the seconds after michael brown was shot that witnesses recording or recorded from three different angles testified to the grand jury wildly differing accounts of that critical moment from this recording audio from an unseen nearby man who says he saw brown moving towards the officer. >> he started running -- >> reporter: then there's this video. this contractor throws his hands up moments after the shooting and others also testified brown did not run toward the officer. >> faced the officer and puts his hands up and the officer

continues to shoot him. >> reporter: who is telling the truth? maybe everyone. or at least they believe they are. >> just because somebody tells you something with a lot of detail, just because they say it with confidence, just because they express it with emotion, it doesn't mean that it really happened that way. >> reporter: cognitive psychologist elizabeth lofta testified in 300 cases since '75 and said over and over eyewitnesses are often wrong. the trayvon martin case, one witness saw a plaque man with a hoodie on top of a white man while another recalls a man with a white shirt on top of another. the 2002 d.c. sniper shootings, multiple witnesses described a white van or box truck. police shut down freeways to frisk scores of van drivers but the real car used a blue chevy four-door sedan. the 1995 oklahoma city bombing,

a key eyewitness rented timothy mcveigh an john doe number two the ryder truck that carried the bombs used in the attack but there was no john doe number two. that witness was not intenti intentionally lying, she says. memory is flawed and affected by stress. >> the major cause of wrongful convictions is faulty eyewitness testimony. that's the major cause. and it's responsible and maybe about three-quarters of the cases. >> reporter: as time grows from the actual shooting witnesses might unknowingly shape and adopt their own memories of what happened based on what they now see and read in the media. the witnesses that testified before the ferguson grand jury likely all saw the same event. they just now remember it differently. kyung lau, cnn, chicago. nearly three years after a deadly cruise accident off the coast of italy, the captain of the "costa concordia" will be in court to tell his side of the

story for the first time. francesco schettino faces a number of manslaughter charges and at least 23 years in prison if convicted. 32 people died when the ship hit rocks and capsized in january of 2012. we are covering the trial and we have a preview of what we can expect. thanks for joining me again on cnn. you know, it's been a couple of years since the incident took place and today is all about getting the captain's official account on the record and in public. but i'm just wondering what are some of the key questions people still want answers to. >> reporter: well, i think really what people want to know is what was going on on the bridge at the time of the accident and in the hour it took between the accident for the captain to call to abandon ship. that is going to be the key question. none of the 32 who died died on impact. they all died during the

evacuation and this captain skets wa schettino waited one hour before he called abandon ship even though he was close to an identify so he's going to have to answer questions about what was going on on the bridge at the time and also going to have to answer questions about communications he with the cruise company costa which is owned by carnival and a lot want to know especially the civil parties, not so much the prosecution which is against captain schettino's quite focus add tempt, the civil parties think there's blame to be placed on cost that. they want to know what conversations whether going on between schettino and the home base where he was on the phone a dozen times between that accident and when he finally called to abandon ship. that's going to be an enlightening moment today. >> in some ways, barbie, captain schettino is blocked in in what he can say.

there were a number of other "costa concordia" employees serving time after admitting their role in what happened. i mean, that in and of itself does not bode well for mr. schettino. >> no, in fact, it doesn't because five people who wok for costa cruise lines including two people who are officers at the time of the accident have admitted their guilt and their role in the accident and what happened as all public record, the court already accepted that as truth so captain schettino is either going to have to contradict that and give his version of events or he will have to take some blame himself in the culpability but, again, you know, nobody died on impact. everybody died during evacuation and this manslaughter charge stems on whether or not that evacuation should have been carried out earlier. he's also facing charges for abandoning ship. there is no denying he got off the ship before the last of the passengers. he was seen on the island of

giglio and the hotel concierge says he was trying to find a room there. he's facing three charges, multiple manslaughter abandoning ship and causing a maritime disaster so he's got to defend himself on three different fronts. >> a couple seconds left. i want to ask, he was the captain. he's never admitted guilt an facing possibly three decades behind bars. surely people expect him to accept some amount of blame. i mean, he was the captain. the cardinal rule is he should be the last to leave the vessel. >> that's right and he's been very defiant throughout this entire trial so far through his lawyers. we'll see though in court what he has to say when he's asking -- answering these questions for the first time with his own voyage. >> barbie nadeau, great to see you. we'll see what comes of it later today. other stories we're tracking for you. vladimir putin has called off a major pipeline project.

the so-called south stream pipeline would have supplied natural gas to southern europe without crossing ukraine. mr. putin accuses european officials of putting up obstacles to the project. >> translator: i think the attitude of the european union about this issue is negative. they didn't help in any way for this project to happen. but instead they blocked it. if europe does not want to carry it out then it will not be carried out. we are not going to make it happen. >> now, mr. putin's announcement comes as plummeting oil prices drag down russia's ruble. those prices hit their lowest levels in five years on monday. both light, sweet an brent crude plugged this early trading and regained $2 a barrel before the close, generally speaking this follows a slide late last week after opec decided to maintain production levels. that is a big concern right now for nations that depend on higher prices to meet their economic targets.

they include venezuela, nigeria, russia, already feeling the heat from western sanctions. now, just a short time ago i spoke with chad brownstein, an energy analyst and chief executive offer of rocky mountain resources over in los angeles. i asked him what was behind the drop in oil prices. >> there was no view on what demand would look like so there was overdrilling in the united states and now we're at a place it's $70 a barrel or less that the consumer is going to benefit but long term there's thousand a concern amongst the secondary and tertiary markets within opec they can't sustain balancing their national budgets with the price being stagnant in the 70s. >> that's what this essentially comes down to. it's which nations are more exposed financially to the fluctuating oil prices. those relying heavily on exporting oil could suffer here, right, we're talking russia, nigeria, venezuela, but which nations do you think face the

highest risk and which ones not so much and just so you're aware looking at this diagram which shows us the break-even point for many nations it comes to the cost of a barrel of oil. >> sure, well, you're seeing quite a competition between the united states and saudi arabia and the united arab emirates where they're challenging the u.s. to lay down rigs and the u.s. is challenging the opec secondary and tertiary markets like iraq, like kuwait, like non-opec but close members like russia to challenge where we are as far as production is concerned. and what you're going to see is much more a sunni versus shiite model of warfare when it comes to using oil as an economic weapon. you're going to see the countries in the middle east challenging each other and you're going to see ultimately china benefiting the most because they now don't have to look for production other

places, they're happy to import oil at $70 a barrel. their manufacturing costs will be down and this is the best news they could have had. >> wow, so china may benefit from all of this. but is diversification another lesson here? if you look back to the '80s when mexico faced a debt crisis because of the plugging price of oil it spurred other industries there so the government could rely on other sources of income. might what's happening now cause this to happen elsewhere? >> well, it's interesting as it relates to the pipeline through the united states, it was so focused by the legislative arm of the government, keystone should be passed now. we don't have the luxury of hundred dollar oil. we need to create hundreds of thousands of jobs in the united states and spur production even at $70 a barrel in the united arab emirates they reaffirmed their $20 billion capital commitment and allocation of private equity so as far as

diversification is concerned, the u.s. and the middle east are balanced specifically the saudis and the united arab emirates but it's very important to diversify and certainly the u.s. and the saudis are best positioned. when you look at venezuela which is i'm sure based on your chart way under water on their economic budget as far as balancing they need to be challenged to diversify. you're looking at iran which is in big trouble forde verseification purposes. it's going to cause many rogue waves as it exists in the world economy. >> for the few seconds left, oil is at around $70 a barrel. when do you think it will get back to 100? >> i think 75 to 77 is the new 100. it's the new standard by which the u.s. operators are going to have to view their drilling strategies. you're going to see probably 9 million barrels a day run through 2015 but you're not going to see an immense amount of new drilling that exists outside of the shell markets of the united states.
