standard -- >> this morning's "eye-opener" is presented by toyota. let's go places. ♪ welcome to "cbs this morning." charlie rose and norah o'donnell are off today. but we're in good hands, because anthony mason is here. hello, anthony. >> happy presidents' day. >> same to you. >> i hope you got everything you wanted under the presidents' day tree. >> i certainly did. it's you and i in the next two hours you reddy? >> i'm ready. >> 200 people aboard an ethiopian airlines flight is safe this morning after a hijacking drama. >> the co-pilot is accused of forcing the plane to land in geneva. charlie dageda has more on the rogue pilot. charlie, good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you, anthony. you could call it an inside job. a co-pilot hijacking his own plane. he waited until the other pilot needed to use the bathroom and then locked him out of the

cockpit. he alerted authorities himself while the plane was in flight and said he was seeking asylum. passengers file down the stairs of the ethiopian airlines flight in geneva with their hands in the air. the swiss police saying they were unaware they'd been hijacked. the co-pilot opened the cockpit window and lowered himself down with rope. the co-pilot himself seized control of the boeing 767 after locking the other pilot out of the cockpit during a bathroom break. two italian fighter jets are scrambled to accompany the plane. it may be the hijacker was hoeching for a softer landing and better chance of asylum when he landed flight 702 with 202 passengers and crew on board in a more political neutral company like switzerland than italy. since then, some flights have resumed and airport officials hope everything will be back to normal later today.

now, it's unclear why the hijacker is seeking asylum. he's under arrest while swiss authorities investigate the hijacking, but already they're considering charges that could carry a prison sentence of up to 20 years. gayle, anthony? >> charlie dageda, thanks. while many of you in the west will enjoy highs in the 60s, winter misery is building across much of the country this morning. a new snow and ice storm will sweep from the midwest into new england over the next 24 hours. >> it's already snowing across minnesota. don dahler reports officials in thousands of cities and towns are saying enough. >> reporter: not just officials, right? good morning, anthony. good morning, gayle. the season has broken records for snowfall and frigid temperatures, but it's been budget-breaking. the constant barrage of snow and ice has wreaked havoc on local economies as consumers are stuck indoors, and cleanup costs triple the norm in some parts of the country. wind-swept snow blew through new york city streets.

thick eye coated power lines and trees in south carolina, while icy roads made for dangerous driving and brought traffic to a near standstill in north carolina. this winter has caused $50 billion of lost productivity according to financial analyst jordan goodman. >> when you count transportation, flight delays, municipalities having to spend more on salt and snow removal, lower car sales, retail sales, industrial production, a whole series of thicks hurt. >> reporter: more than 75,000 flights have been cancelled since early december, costing passengers an estimated $2.5 billion. while cleanup costs have skyrocketed for some municipalities like ramapo, new york. >> right now, we're about 70,000 over the salt budget. and about 63,000 over on all time. not counting the past storm. >> reporter: chicago is already $5 million over budget, money that's meant to last into 2014. forecasters blame the

unrelenting snow on a slower-moving jet stream. questions are growing over why the stream is moving at a glacial pace. on sunday's "face the nation," dr. marshall shepherd argued that climate change is one contributing factor. >> you have some that will say, what are you guys worried about global change, climate warming, it's cold and snowing, and i said it's winter, it's february and january, it's like at nighttime, the sun doesn't exist anymore. >> reporter: the latest winter blast which blanketed from the south up the eastern seaboard left over 1.2 million homes and businesses without power. more than half has been restored just in time for the next storm. anthony? >> thanks a lot, don. meteorologist megan glaros of our chicago station wbbm is tracking this morning's snowstorm as it moves east. >> good morning, anthony and gayle. here we go again, in this never-ending winter. another storm system, this one moving west to east, impacting chicago and portions of indianapolis, cincinnati,

columbus, going into the next 24 hours, and then moving on off to the east coast, to new york and to boston by the time we roll into tomorrow morning. accumulations on this will stay a little lighter than the last two storms but would top six inches in spots. ice accumulation could be a factor from washington through south of cincinnati and into st. louis and omaha. middle to end of this week, we're looking at very mild air. temperatures 20 degrees above average, topping 50 in new york, and in boston a problem, because not only do we have a lot of snow on the ground, but it will be paired with a possibility of rain. so snow melt will be a big factor. frozen ground will create a lot of runoff, and there could even be icejam flooding on rivers, so flooding will be an issue paired with the milder temperatures. anthony, gayle? avalanche warnings are up across the mountains of colorado this morning. on sunday, searchers found the bodies of two skiers killed by a massive slide on star mountain. that's about 80 miles southwest of denver.

they were skiing with five other people. avalanches claimed eight lives in the past ten days across the west. as barry petersen reports, officials say the danger is now at historic levels. >> reporter: the two victims were with five other cross country skiers when the avalanche swept them down star mountain around 5:00 p.m. saturday. authorities believe the group triggered the deadly slide. radio beacons led search teams to their bodies. >> they all had beepers. all the equipment they needed. it was just unfortunate what happened. >>reporter: three of the skiers were hospitalized. two others escaped unharmed. recent heavy snowfall followed by warmer temperatures have made for unstable snow packs and dangerous conditions throughout the west. >> folks that don't normally know avalanching, and see the slopes that are producing avalanches, are producing much bigger avalanches.

>> reporter: the information center issue add special advisory on sunday warning, you can't rely on standard safe routes and travel practices to keep you out of trouble. brian lazar is the center's deputy director. >> the size of the avalanches that we've been seeing recently are not survivable. >> reporter: over the last ten days, eight people have been killed in avalanches in colorado, oregon, and utah. last month, this skier in colorado's berthoud pass was swallowed up by an avalanche -- >> holy [ bleep ] -- >> reporter: -- and captured on camera. >> maybe i was in a risky zone, but a lot of thing disslide without a lot of impact. >> reporter: authorities are warning people to stay off dangerous slopes hoping there will be no more deaths in the snow. for "cbs this morning," barry petersen, denver. this morning's weather in sochi, russia, is causing big trouble for skiers and snowboarders at the winter

olympics. heavy fog in the mountains forced the biathlon to be postponed. indoors, the american women's ice hockey team won again. alphonso van marsh is in sochi where there was plenty of drama yesterday. alphonso, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, gayle. good morning, anthony. sunday was not a slow day here in sochi. the people here are saying that team usa managed to work that podium and bring some more olympic medals back home. >> trying to get by! he scores! >> reporter: the united states' hockey team continued its outstanding run sunday, beating slovenia and advancing to the quarterfinals. >> kessel, the hat trick! >> reporter: phil kessel scored three goals to lift the americans to a 5-1 win. >> scores! >> reporter: and team usa scored a throwback jersey style after the 1960 hockey team, the first u.s. hockey team to win olympic gold. this win was a day after team usa's explosive victory over russia that ended with a

nail-biting penalty shoot-out. >> scores! team usa wins! >> reporter: over on the slopes, success for american andrew, winning in the super g, and success for 36-year-old bode miller, tying for bronze in the super g. this makes miller the oldest alpine skier to win an olympic medal. after his run, miller was overcome with thoughts of his younger brother, who died from a seizure last year. >> -- to pass away the way that he did, really kind of -- i don't know, it sort of connected with my sort of journey coming back. >> reporter: it was an exciting day in the woman's snowboard cross. there were jumps, tussles, and a few falls. >> oh! >> reporter: the american women were only able to finish in fourth place. but a pair of american ice dancers are one step closer to gold. michigan's meryl davis and

charlie white are currently in first place after a stunning short dance program. their canadian rivals and training partners are right behind them, leading up to the ice dancing finals later on today. now, after some sunny, warm weather in recent days, a cool nothing has been making a visit, and that is causing some problems here. sochi organizers blaming limited visibility for the delay or cancellation of some of today's olympic events. anthony, gayle? >> alphonso van marsh, thanks, alphonso. as hillary clinton decides her future, there are new signs that republicans are targeting two clintons, not one. 2012 gop presidential nominee mitt romney is taking a jab at former president bill clinton. >> the times when he was president were by and large positive economic times for the country. on the other hand, he embarrassed the nation, he breached his responsibility, i think, as an adult, and as a leader in his relationship, and

i think that's very unfortunate. but i don't think that's hillary clinton's to explain. she has her own record, her own vision for where she would take the country, and i think that's something which we debated extensively during the 2016 campaign. >> romney also said if the former secretary of state makes a presidential bid, quote, i don't imagine that bill clinton is going to be a big part of it. this morning, a florida man faces a possible 60-year prison sentence, michael dunn was found guilty on saturday on three counts of attempted murder after opening fire on a group of jacksonville teenagers in an suv. the 2012 shooting happened during an argument over loud music. 17-year-old jordan davis died that day. davis was black, so are his friends. michael dunn is white. the jury could not agree on the most serious charge, first-degree murder. >> we're so very happy to have just a little bit of closure, and we'll continue to stand, and

we will continue to wait for justice for jordan. >> cbs news legal analyst jack ford joins us at the table. good morning. >> good morning to you. >> a lot of people confused by this verdict. can you explain? >> yeah, it sounds confusing, but it might not be, because the question is, is it inconsistent for him to be found guilty of the attempted murder and jury not resolving the issue of murder. the attempted murder is very different, according to what the evidence was. the attempted murder was shooting in the car, especially after it's speeding away from there, and clearly the jury found he was the aggressor. >> shooting into the car because he feared for his life. >> the jurors were saying, you didn't have any reason to fear nor your life if the car is leaving you. the big issue is the self-defense claim for the shooting that took the life of the one victim here. because the defense was, i'm acting in self-defense. what you have to understand about that, and we don't know what the juries were -- how close they were to a possible verdict -- the notion of

self-defense in florida, if it's reasonable for you under the circumstances to believe your life is in danger, you can use this type of force. but reasonable doesn't necessarily mean that you are accurate. so in other words, here, he's saying he pulled a shotgun on me, and the prosecution saying there was no gun there. the fact there wasn't a gun by itself doesn't mean that self-defense -- >> he never told his girlfriend. >> -- and the circumstances themselves were -- >> and he never told his girlfriend, who was in the car with him, i thought i saw a key -- >> and he didn't call the police, didn't tell his girlfriend, so that should mean it wasn't reasonable. >> the prosecution says they'll retry the murder charge. you think that's likely? >> i think so. what happens if you're a prosecutor is this, you look at a retrial in terms of how close were you to getting a conviction in the first place. we'll have to see what the jurors say here. can you remedy a problem you had the first time around if you do it a second time. they'll look at what the feelings are, and the emotions of the victim's family. that doesn't control it's a factor. they'll also look at whether they need to make a statement

here. and ultimately, they'll look at whether or not the sentencing for the other counts will be enough. if they still feel -- >> he's likely to get 60 years -- >> probably not 60, because i don't think the judge will stack emthis. it was a single event. but probably a good chunk, maybe 20 years or so. >> all right, jack ford, thank you. this morning, we're learning a suicide attacker is responsible for the bombing after bus in egypt. three members of a south korean church were killed in the attacks sunday on the sinai peninsula. more than a dozen others were hurt. they were visiting biblical sites. the driver was also killed. no word if the bomber was linked to a group. this morning, about 200 people remain inside an abandoned gold mine near johannesburg, south africa. they are there illegally. some miners may be trapped but others may be refusing to come out for fear of being arrested. at least 12 miners trapped by debris were rescued yesterday, and then arrested. rescue workers say it's too dangerous to go into the mine to reach the other men. time to show you some of the morning's headlines from around the globe.

>> during his two terms in office, the presidential appointees have been political supporters, not professional diplomats. that's higher than president clinton and more than the bush administration. but it's slightly less than ronald reagan and jimmy carter. >> i really think that political appointees can be. yes, they should have been prepared and be ready because they're going have to be ready when they go to post. >> the state department says these ambassadors need to be judged before they get there. they need to be confirmed by the senate and no vote has been scheduled just yet. we know in the coming days the union that represents the foreign service is about to issue new job requirement guidelines. they want more foreign policy experienced officers to get these jobs.

rome is accused of forcing the plane to land in switzerland and is under arrest this morning. another storm system. this is from west to east. >> this season has already broken records for snowfall and frigid temperatures but it's also been budget breaking. the question is, is it inconsistent to be found guilty of the attempted murder and the swrir not to resolve the issue of the murder? the answer is that the attempted murder is -- >> fog has been making a visit. that's causing problems here. organizers claiming the delay or cancellation from some of the event. >> not to take anything away from some of the other sports, a lot of people don't think the olympics get going until the hockey gets going. >> nailed the first three. misses the fourth. he gets off a fifth shot. but jack may not get the money. the school says he must make four consecutive shots.

>> i would have given him the money. of course, it's not my money. >> announcer: presented by nati nationwide insurance. >> anthony, #givejackthemoney. >> there you go. >> i'm gayle king with anthony mason. norah o'donnell and charlie rose are off today. co-pilot of an ethiopian airline s overnight. >> charlie d'agata is monitoring the events from london. >> while the other pilot used the bathroom, he locked him out of the cockpit and alerted authorities that he wanted to seek asylum in switzerland rather than landing in rome. that alert prompted italy to scramble two jets. after landing, the co-pilot

lowered himself by rope. and surrendered himself to police. none of the passengers or crew were hurt. in fact, most were unaware that the plane was hijacked. flight 702 took off in ethiopia, a country that's had a history of political turmoil and human rights abuses. the hijacker would be charged with taking hostages, a crime that carries up to 20 years in prison. >> thank you, charlie d'agata. it is snowing again in the midwest. the newest storm will move into the northeast tonight. that region has been hit over and over again in the last few weeks. meteorologist megan glaros of our chicago station, wb about bm, says conditions are starting to change. that's good news, megan, because people are starting to say we've heard this song before. good morning to you. >> good morning, gayle and anthony. really similar song and dance has been going through this entire winter so far.

once again, we track a storm system. this one started in minnesota and wisconsin and pushing into illinois within the next couple of hours. very heavy snowfall rates with this. it chugs slowly across the country, arriving in the very hard-hit northeast by the end of the day tomorrow. so, we're going to be dealing with a storm system for a while. generally looking at highest accumulations from the three to six inch range. we could see some number that is top ten inches in spots. this is what you were talking about, gayle. milder air coming very soon. unfortunately, it won't last long. gayle, anthony? >> megan glaros, thank you very much. the united auto workers union is doing some soul searching after a big defeat. volkswagen employees in chattanooga, tennessee, voted against the uaw last week. the factory would have been the first in the south to be organized by the union. contributor and analyst mellody hobson is with us from san

francisco. good morning. >> good morning, anthony. >> the union thought they were going to win this. what happened? >> this was a big blow. they didn't see it coming, i have to say. they thought they were going to win it because volkswagen was neutral to positive because they had good relations in germany with unions. months ago employees voted and signed registration cards in favor of the union. and so tit came hard and fast ad they hoped this would allow them to really grow their ranks in the area. >> mellody, does this vote tell us anything about the state of unions in this country? >> well, it's interesting. cloerly, unions have been on the decline. right now, we have 11% of americ americans that belong to a union. that's way down from where they peaked in the 1950s, where 30% of workers were unionized in some way. the big story has been the difference between private and public sector. 30% of employees in a union in

public versus 6% in the private sector, which why the uaw was working so hard on what they call these transplant companies, foreign companies manufacturing in the u.s., specifically cars. and the cars that we drive. union ranks have been climbing and there have been big efforts to grow those ranks. that's why this was such a setback. >> mellody, in the last week or so before the vote, a number of employers came out against unions. >> politicians worked hard on this one. they came out very, very strongly against the union and they said it was because they thought it would hurt economic development in the region. bw plant was unionized, that would cause other companies that may be thinking of relocating to the area to actually go somewhere else, specifically to auto suppliers or other foreign auto companies.

that's why they say they pushed so hard. the jury's out whether that's true or not. >> can i say i like the new haircut? tres chic. >> thank you. backing michael sam's decision to announce he was gay ahead of the draft. first openly gay player. the president told former nba charles barkley other athletes put their careers on the line to pave the way for those who follow. >> you think about what the nba was before african-americans were allowed to play on an equal footing. you think about some of the stories that even folks like robson tell that they went through. you think about what jackie robinson ended up meaning -- not just to baseball but to all of society. i wouldn't be sitting here if it weren't for him i think america is stronger when everybody is

songs. darlene love is behind thousands of tracks but because she's a backup singer, she didn't get much fame until she entered into the hall of fachl before we meet her, a look back. "be my baby," do run run," and "the boy i'm going marry." they're some of the biggest hits of the 1960s and darlene love sang all of them. born darlene wright she sang in her father's church before joining a local group called the blossoms. the women grieng sang as backup singers for singers like sam cooke and bobby darryn. they wanted to use the

roof-raising voice to capture the sound of the times. and in 1962 specter asked love and the blos oms to sing for "he's a rebel." though the song was number one, she never got credit. that wasn't unusual for darlene love. her job was to sing backup for other singers and she diddet for the best of them including elvis presley, frank sinatra, and dionne warwick. despite decades of chart-topping songs, she never knew fame. she eventually quit singing and became a maid to support herself. this year she's in a documentary "20 feet from stardom." i looked up and said, okay, all right, darlene, this is not where you're supposed to be.
