combatant who did harm and was planning to do harm, more harm. >> reporter: the army initially kicked golsteyn out of the berets and order him gre discha from the service but did not bring criminal charges. now eight years after the shooting he is charged with the most serious crime of all, premeditated murder, which carries a possible death sentence. >> are you hoping for a pardon? >> whatever it takes to have justice for matt. if it's a pardon, great. overseas now. there's hope for a possible peace agreement in yemen. a ceasefire in a key battleground port city took effect hours ago, and it couldn't come soon enough for the millions who find themselves on the brink of famine. elizabeth palmer was the only u.s. correspondent inside yemen. she has the very latest from the jordanian capital of amman. >> reporter: here's what desperation looks like. a bowl of boiled leaves. >> they're cooking these to eat

weren't there before thanksgiving. they're called pop-ups. and they're the new rage in retail. conor knighton reports. >> reporter: 'tis the season to be shopping. but while everyone is bemoaning the death ofal a mrendil,th o es have been, sorry, popping up all over the place. these temporary events, think of them as the hermit crabs of unused retail space, serve all kinds of purposes. from selling products overtly to selling things in a more subtle way. like this recent pop-up that brought back new york's famed carnegie deli, which actually closed in 2016. all in the interest of promoting an amazon prime tv show. >> ah, this is a sandwich. >> reporter: because they're fun, immersive, and oh, so instagramable, but somebody still has to pay for them,

pop-ups often straddle the line between art and commerce. and no one straddles that line quite like 29 rooms. ♪ when your back's against the wall ♪ ♪ because you feel you've lost it all ♪ >> we think of 29 rooms as our immersive world of culture and creativity where 29 different peen bs.ori t so everythinge lifortus frocean. >> reporter: it's the creation of pierra gilardi, whose digital media company, refinery 29, covers culture from the perspective of young women. 29 rooms, which popped up in l.a. for just four days a week ago, featured various rooms curated by artists and celebrities. like nicole richie and kesha. and social justice organizations like the aclu and major brands like pantene, smirnoff, and

morning after pill plan b. which paid for these phone booths where visitors could hear recorded stories of emergency couldn't rah-session. >> all of my family lives in iowa, so if i were to explain this to them i would tell them that this is an interactive live in the moment type exhibit where you can see, feel, touch, hear. it's just sensory overload. >> reporter: for these brands paying to be here at least temporarily is a good way to reach potential customers in real life, which is difficult to do in this era of online shopping. >> we wanted an opportunity t really connect people in a physical space and allow them to interact with artists, interact with different forms of creativity that they might not already have access with and then interact with both our frands and our brand partners. >> reporter: pop-ups have become big business. worth about 50 billion nasdaq 2016. so pop-ular.

sorry again. that in fact the average length of commercial retail leases has shrunk from 20 years to just five years. just ask john goodman. >> we just want to come into a city, conquer a city, and leave. whether we come back, who knows? >> reporter: goodman used to be the ceo of mall retailers like merv's and wet seal. but these days he thinks the future of retail is in pop-ups like the one he runs, candytopia. >> feel free to touch sxint racket with the candy displays. >> reporter: a traveling funhouse dedicated to all things sweet. >> i was inaife. k. know the area. i know experiential retail. i felt like we could be part of the reinvention of the mall because it was getting staid and tired. >> reporter: goodman's business partner is jackie sorkin, celebrity candy artist. and yes, there is such a thing. >> it's just hundreds of thousands of pieces of candy,

thousands of hours of work. >> reporter: who took us on a tour of candytopia san francisco. >> i was obsessed with willie wonka. i was a latchkey kid, so spent a lot of time watching the movie over and over again. and eventually i think the principles of the movie really spoke to me. >> reporter: and for a limited time visitors can experience those principles themselves, all for the low, low price of $34 a ticket. there's the celebrity portrait gallery made of candy. next door to the room where candy confetti shoots out of -- well, just see for yourself. and of course don't forget the gift shop. but the main attraction might be the giant pit of fake marshmallows. a moment perfect for sharing on social media. which is kind of the point, says sorkin. >> we've got all these incredible structures or you want to take photos with the candy sculptures.

it's really just an instagramer's dream really. >> reporter: dreams that can also come true at san francisco's museum of ice cream. which technically speaking is not really a museum but was so popular as a pop-up it's now permanent. and just the place to take that perfect picture with that special someone. yourself. tommy honton is one of the founders of the museum of selfies. >> you're standing in our famous bathroom. there's a bit of an optical illusion effect. >> reporter: located where else? in hollywood. and yes, it also started as a pop-up. >> when you walk into al space, you're there. that'sea r very special. because there are chemicals in our brains that react when we are in a space. watching tv, you can still get a reaction from a character or a journey, but you know that -- >> reporter: hold on there, tommy. let's not get carried away. but he does have a point.

scientists and explorers have been depth testing their privately built manned submersible. it's called tight sxn it's you off the coast of abaco island. they needed the sub to reach 13,000 feet. that is the necessary depth to reach the "titanic's" wreck site. on monday oceangate founder stockton rush got there. becoming only the second person ever to reach that depth solo. the other person? was "titanic" director james cameron. >> i was so busy in the sub when i got down there that i didn't appreciate it until i started to come back up. and as i ce to the surface and realized accomplished this amazing thing,ad it was just a eat moment of joy. >> reporter: the continten-ton capable of carrying five people, launches from a separate platform designed to sink below the waves, releasing titan into deeper waters. scli can't express what that has meant to me and what it means to imagine the great things we're going to explore and find in the ocean in the years to come.

>> reporter: the achievement not only opens up 50% of the ocean to private manned exploration, it also paves the way for annual survey expeditions to "titanic's" final resting place to map the wreck and create a detailed 3-d model of the ship and its debris field. researchers and explorers will be able to join oceangate's expeditions for a fee. $100,000. that's the inflation-adjusted price of a first-class ticket in 1912. >> we expect to survey the "titanic" over many years. it's a gigantic site. and we want to collect as much data as possible before it decays into the ocean. >> reporter: the first of oceangate's scheduled expeditions to the "titanic" run from june to august of 2019. i'm david begnaud. >> well, i think that's a little bit out of my price range. well, that's the overnight news for this tuesday. to have some of you the news continues. for others check back with us a little later for the morning news and of course "cbs this morning."
