whole time are being charged by police. and celebrity stalking. a new website makes its easier than ever to track your favorite celebrities' whereabouts. now, stars are saying it makes stalking even easier. does it go too far? such a big news morning. we decided to wear matching outfits. >> we're going with the gray look this morning. three days later, it's still so heartwarming to watch the video of the miners coming out one by one. such an incredible story. also, big news from your beat, the business world, this morning. big fish in the mortgage mess, paying a big fine. the largest ever for a ceo. the co-founder of countrywide financial has agreed to pay $67 million to settle with the federal government. he was one of the most vilified ceos in the mortgage mess. he's the first to pay up personally. we also have medical news this morning. brain injuries are often hard to detect, even fatal before doctors know that something is seriously wrong. but the army may have come up with a simple blood test that could make detection a lot easier. could this be a life-saver for soldiers, athletes or anyone who has an accident? >> some skepticism in the medical world this morning. plus, check out who is getting involved in the jon stewart/stephen colbert rally in d.c., just two weeks from today. oprah is giving free bus rides to the rally. but here's the question -- if you hold a rally for people who don't like rallies, will anybody show up? >> big news if oprah is involved in a story. we begin with the happy homecoming for the chilean miners. all but two of them got to sleep in their own bed last night for the first time in nearly three months. neal karlinsky got the latest from copiapo. >> reporter: just imagine a personal party for nearly every one of the miners. and we are talking huge, street parties. quite a contrast from where they came from. and there is still a lot more they have to get used to. overnight, the reunions that the whole country is waiting for. 27-year-old carlos barrios, a part-time miner, who also drives a taxi, seemed to be in the process of shaking every hand in town when we spoke with him. and he may have put it best. i never expected to be received like this, he said. it was calmer for us down in the mine than it is up here. across town, his former roommate underground was popping champagne. esteban rojas was the 18th miner to be rescued. it was a scene repeated over and over, throughout the region, well into the night. but there was serious talk, too. edison pena is nicknamed the runner for the six-mile runs he would take inside the mine. i'm angry, he says, blaming the mine's owners. then, there was this. never-before-seen video of miners being treated on-site immediately following the rescue. and the unforgettable moment when ariel meets his newborn daughter for the first time. she was born while he was trapped. her name, esperanza, hope in spanish. the local health minister says, celebrations aside, the mental health of the famous 33 is what's most important now. >> we are concerned, now, obviously, with their psychological status. this time, it's going to be very hard for them, with the readaptation. life will never again be the same. >> reporter: many of the miners are still having some difficulties. doctors here told us at least one wakes up in the morning and still thinks that he is down inside the mine. others are having a hard time telling the difference between day and night and readjusting to life above ground. bianna? >> neal, we know that the miners have said they would remain united. any deals or ventures that come their way to tell their story. any sense we may see a rift in that union? >> reporter: well, they're going to have a lot of trouble keeping together. there are 33 of them. they live far apart. right now, they've been together the entire time. but once they're all home, tough to stick together. and they're getting uneven attention. several are getting a lot more interest than some of the others. hard for them to stick to that pact, bianna. >> thanks, neal. >> all right. thank you. we have some big news this morning about a man some consider to be the heavily-tanned face of the mortgage mess. his name is anglo mozilo. he's the ex-ceo of countrywide financial. he would pay the largest penalty ever for an executive. he'll be shelling out $67.5 million to settle fraud charges. our meg oliver is here to break down the details of this agreement. good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning. this is historic. anglo mozilo was slapped with the largest-ever s.e.c. penalty for an individual executive. the s.e.c. charged mozilo for misleading investors about the credit risk, being taken to build and maintain the company's market share. all this as the subprime mortgage crisis emerged. now, basically, investors were sure that countrywide was a stable mortgage lender. but in reality, countrywide was on the verge of imploding, with risky loans, mounting defaults and delinquencies. and the s.e.c. a has alleged that mozilo was involved in insider trading. the finding on friday comes just days before the federal trial was to begin next tuesday in los angeles. mozilo is not alone. two other countrywide executives will also pay penalties. mozilo will not confirm or deny any wrongdoing in the case. so, a huge fall from grace. >> where does the money go? and what happens next to mozilo himself? >> reporter: yeah. that's the interesting thing. the money will go to investors hurt in all of this. they should see a significant financial relief, as far as shareholders go. mozilo has been banned from ever becoming a director or an officer of a publicly-traded company. but a lot of people want to know who is actually paying all of this? it looks like he was protected by employment contracts against lawsuits. so, it looks like bank of america will actually pay for the fine. >> thank you, meg. let's go to bianna and the political news. >> it's hard to believe there's 17 days to go before the high-stakes midterm elections. that has some high-profile names blazing the campaign trail to boost candidates in key races. president obama is in boston, campaigning for the massachusetts governor. tomorrow, he and mrs. obama will be in ohio. and bill clinton, john mccain and sarah palin are all stumping in california. david kerley is mapping it all from washington. >> reporter: good morning. you will see the most powerful politicians, as you mentioned, out on the road, at work this weekend. for the democrats, the big stars are on the road. they are the political headliners. the heavyweights. clinton in california last night. >> we've got to get through this very tough spot. >> reporter: obama and biden, crisscrossing the country. delaware friday. >> and two years ago, you said, yes, we can. >> reporter: it's boston today. and for the first time since his election, campaigning tomorrow in ohio with the first lady. >> we've come much too far to turn back now. >> reporter: with some states already voting early, the sprint is on, with candidates in tight races, hoping a high-profile visit by the president or former president might help. >> we've been there before. and we're not going back. we're moving forward, not backward. >> reporter: clinton and obama are tag-teaming. the former president, showing up in states where mr. obama is unpopular. and in the final days, sarah palin is in high demand. >> november 2nd is right around the corner. i can see it from my house. >> reporter: but not for every republican. neither gubernatorial candidate, meg whitman, nor the senate candidate will be appearing with her today in california. >> they want to appeal to independent voters. they want to look like an independent voice. they do not want to look like they're beholden either to the tea party concept or to sarah palin. >> reporter: but a new analysis by the associated press found that the tea party may be a force to reckon with after election day. about half of the tea party candidates running for the house are poised to win. that could mean up to 35 seats, a tea party bloc in the house. so, maybe they will be able to caucus, as well. those that are handicapping these races, sources say democrats look to lose control of the house. the races are tightening. but republicans are still ahead in most of the races. dan and bianna? >> all right, david. thank you. what impact will the movers and shakers have down the home stretch. well, the columnist for "the daily beast," john avalon, joins us this morning. >> good morning. >> talk about the tea party. question, if they win all of the races they're expected to, how much power will they ultimately wield in washington? >> they could have considerable influence. they could help set the agenda and ore conservatism to politics in america. right now, they've been running an opposition. tben ing will they have the ability to work with them and play a construct rolove agenda? or will they be in oppo loud, but ineff >> sarah palin and john mccain are campaigning in california. there are people that are shunning her there. is that a surprise? >> like meg whitman and carly fiorina. it is not a surprise. because the reality is, while sarah palin is great to pulling out the base, she is kryptonite to independents and centrist. those are the voters you have to win general elections, especially in california. while she's going to be deployed to a lot of conservative rallies, the leading candidates for governor and senator don't want anywhere near her. >> let's turn to delaware. a lot of people were wondering why the president and vice president were stumping there. >> that was a weird call. i think the only explanation is, it was really effectively a victory lap. first of all, joe biden wants coons to win. he doesn't want to be succeeded in the senate, effectively, by o'donnell. christine o'donnell is the epitome of the candidate they want to run against. democrats want christine o'donnell to e al republicans this year. they know n they know she reaffirms all of the worst otypte p and she's likely to lose big. that's why they went there. >> and we can't finish the segment without bringing up bill clinton. hasn't been in office in nearly ten years. and yet, he seems to be the campaigner of choice here >> he abso this is a big deal. it's hard to remember. but he won west virginia. he won kentucky. he has the ability to connect to the bubble vote that democrats need. they are hemorrhaging white, working-class voters. bill clinton has the ability to and also win over moderates the middle-class, who determine who win all elections in america. that's why bill clinton is still the big campaigner. >> and it's never dullch john avlon, thanks for joining us. >> and goodf thword we check the other stories with ron claiborne. >> good morning, everyone. just three days after the chilean miners were freed, news of two, serious mine accidents elsewhere. in china, at least 20 miners were killed in a mine explosion this morning south of beijing. that blast trapped 17 workers. in ecuador, 4 miners are trapped almost 500 feet underground after a mine collapse there. there could be peace talks in afghanistan that could include the taliban. general david petraeus has confirmed that coalition forces have allowed taliban representatives to travel to kabul to meet with afghan government officials. however, petraeus says the discussions are only preliminary at this point. and botox has been approved as a treatment for migraine headaches. the food and drug administration has given the okay for botox injections for patients who have migraines at least 15 days in a month. doctors would inject patients every 12 weeks to dull the pain of the migraine attacks. and the last of ponzi schemer bernie madoff's mansio c 8,800-square-foot home went for $5.6 million. it was bought by a california couple. officials seized the properties in new york and france, after madoff was arrested. proceeds will go to madoff's victims. it was yogi berra that said it ain't over until it's over. that's the case last night. as the yankees staged a stunning comeback from five runs down to beat the texas rangers. you'll see it here. alex rodriguez scored the go-ahead run as the yankees rallied to score five runs in the eighth inning of game one of the american league championship series. game two is this afternoon. dan, none of your red sox negativity, please. >> as a guy from boston, i refuse to celebrate the yankee victory. >> for the rangers? >> the rangers? no. >> what's wrong with texas? >> all the regional loyalty coming out this morning. we want to go out to minneapolis. we have a shoutout from minneapolis. chikage windler is joining us from our affiliate in minneapolis. >> great to be back. we have to start with the weather that's happening here and now through the northeast. currently outside, it is starting to wind down. but not until after a foot of snow or more fell in the green mountains of vermont. pictures from killington, where i have a feeling that ski season will get an early start. take a look. it's just october. and the snow has been flying. the snow's tapering, as well. the winds are starting to diminish. after seeing wind gusts in the 40-mile-per-hour to 60-mile-per-hour range yesterday. today, winds up to 40 miles per hour. it will be a breezy but dry and pleasant day and next half hour, we'll look at some of the wind damage from the nor'easter. dan? >> thanks, chikage. there's been a major breakthrough in diagnosing life-threatening head injuries. we're talking about the type of hard-to-detect concussions or brain trauma that affects young athletes, infants with shaken baby syndrome, and combat troops. in fact, the army came up with this test. they say it's a simple blood test that will do the trick. but some people in the medical community are skeptical. we brought in physical medical specialist, dr. ian smith. he's in chicago to tell us more about this. dr. smith, good morning to you. >> good morning, dan. >> simply, how does this test work? >> the idea is very simple. you take a very simple blood test, like you would for anything else. get a blood count. but they're looking for a particular protein they think will spill into the blood after your nerve cells are damaged. we have a similar test for heart disease, to see if someone has suffered a heart attack. the idea is look for the protein. the protein will let us know whether someone who looks normal and may be talking normal, has suffered a concussion. >> just to repeat it to make sure i got it. if we have some sort of head injury, signs of that can show up in our blood. and you're saying the tests would tell doctors whether we've had a serious or some sort of head injury that should be checked out further. you've called this potentially revolutionary. why? >> well, because so many people, 1.4 million brain injuries a year at least. so many people walk around who have had concussions. and while they look fine and we don't think anything is wrong, concussions can have something called a postconcussion syndrome. you have cumulative neurological damage. one concussion, then another. all that could lead to damage and epilepsy. that's why the nfl is so serious about quarterbacks and concussive injuries. why this is revolutionary now, is if we can do the simple blood test, those that we suspect have mild to moderate trauma, we can test them and say, they suffered a concussion. and therefore, take a restrictive approach to future activity or at least supervise them and monitor them much better. >> this will be important for high school athletes. i was struck by one of the military scientists who came up with the test. he said it will, quote, change medicine entirely. that says there is skepticism in the medical community. why is that? >> i like to use the word cautiously optimistic. this was a rather small study. only 34 patients. the second part, it has never been published. when scientific evidence is revolutionary of this size, you want to see it in a well-regarded journal, like "the journal of the american medical association," or "the journal of medicine." they haven't published it yet. so, a lot of this data, they're not reporting on it. other scientists and doctors have not had a chance to look at it, study it and analyze it. we remain cautiously optimistic. we're hoping for a bigger study and more transparency on what they did to get the results. >> great to have you on, dr. smith. >> thanks, dan. >> so interesting. so much in the medical community doesn't understand the brain. that's promising, indeed. want to switch gears now. jon stewart and stephen colbert now have oprah's endorsement for their rallies on the washington mall, two weeks from today. can two comedians really pull in the same crowds as tea party conservatives? here's karen travers. >> look under your seat. you're going to the rally. >> reporter: the talk show queen is referring to jon stewart and stephen colbert's upcoming rally to restore sanity and/or fear. >> i'm really excited about it. i think we need more sanity in the world. >> it would be nice. >> reporter: the comedy central event is an answer to glenn beck's rally, restoring honor. stewart's goal is to bring together in the exact same place the moderates whose voices are not heard because, as he says, they're too busy to scream and shout. >> there's millions of people at home who have to mow the lawn. who have -- they have things to do. >> reporter: the format of the event is still unknown. >> jon stewart is first and foremost a comedian. he's going for the punch line. but there's substance to the humor. >> reporter: the big question? if you hold a rally for people who don't like rallies, will anyone show up? >> we believe that at least 225 people will be there. >> reporter: a lot more than that. nearly 300,000 have signed up for the event on facebook. but that doesn't mean they'll show up in person. these washington, d.c. college students said they won't miss it. >> i've gotten an incredible amount of friends saying, tell me you're going to this. you have to come to this one. >> get out there and restore some sanity. >> see you october 30th, on the national mall, spreading the timeless message. take it down a notch. >> reporter: for "good morning america," karen travers, abc news, washington. >> i think it's interesting to watch his evolution from comedian to quasi political figure. >> and people don't know whether to take him seriously. but he makes us laugh. >> i'm not sure whether he knows. >> well, we'll find out. coming up on "good morning america," upwards of 500 under aged kids booze it up at a ritcy boca raton mansion. are the parents to blame?

"your week in three words." that's coming up. but first, in towns all over the country this weekend, teenagers will be having parties. and, yes, police will be called to a few of them. but few parties will make headlines like the one that police broke up down in boca raton, florida, last weekend. at that 1, police found nearly 500 teenagers drinking. and ended up arresting the parents that owned the house. linsey davis has more. >> reporter: the party, crashed. >> it's a little crazy here. >> reporter: the house, trashed. >> there is security here. but they're not doing anything. >> reporter: the kids, smashed. >> we have four kids that are passed out. >> reporter: kegs, coolers and bottles litter the pool table, the patio, even the night stand of this multimillion-dollar home in boca raton, florida. the high school house party played out more like a college frat party. and it ended up with the and it ended up with the parents, shlomo and jeannie rasabi going to jail. >> they were in the bedroom. they didn't know there was alcohol. >> reporter: their lawyer said they were on the first floor. that they had hired three chaperons to attend the party. that 150 students were invited. and you had to have a wristband to get in. robin knowles lives nearby. >> i never saw anything like this. i saw the paramedics wheeling kids past my house. >> reporter: police say they found about 500 kids. many with alcohol. >> there were several buses and limousine buses and limos that pulled up, almost simultaneously and dropped off 400 or so kids. >> reporter: he says the kids arrived to the rasabis' already intoxicated. >> four juveniles are unconscious. >> what? where. >> all of the alcohol that was presumably consumed or possessed by the minors was brought on to the property by the teenagers. >> reporter: so, who is to blame? parents are increasingly being held criminally responsible for underage drinking. earlier this month, two mothers at two, separate florida residences were arrested after alcohol was served at their teen daughters' parties. the rasabis could walk away with a slap on the wrist because they weren't in charge of providing alcohol. they're charged with not doing enough to keep minors away from it. they pleaded not guilty. for "good morning america," linsey davis, abc news, new york. i want to bring in ralph blackman, the president and ceo of the century council. it's a group founded to fight underage drinking. good morning to you, sir. >> good morning. >> what are the laws? are parents legally liable in cases like this? >> there's a variety of laws in each state. there's more communities that are passing their own laws. in florida, florida, of course, has a house party law, an open house party law, that could hold those adults liable if, number one, they are providing that alcohol. they know that alcohol is on the premises. but also, they're not doing anything to prevent that underage drinking. >> generally speaking, what are the penalties in these cases? can parents go to prison? >> generally, they're pretty small, given the risks that are out there. but in florida, could be about $500 fine. could be days in jail. of course, all the facts of the case have to come out. >> there is this conventional wisdom that it's better for parents to create a controlled environment for children and their friends, in which to experiment with alcohol, perhaps. do you see any logic to that? >> actually, we think that's pretty misguided. they may be controlling the environment. but they're not controlling the consumption. taking somebody's keys away or even in this story, where they're talking about the buses rolling up, you're dealing with the driving part. but i can guarantee you those parents were not helping those young people make responsible decisions, you know, about alcohol. the fact is, that it's illegal to drink if you're under 21. >> so, in your view, what is the right approach for parents, given that underage alcohol consumption is a fact of life in many places? >> well, any parent of a teenager who has not already spoken to their kids about alcohol, hasn't really kept up on what's going on, what their friends are doing, what their kids are doing. that's something that has to happen early. and has to be reminded. we know from all of the research, that parents have the largest influence in their kids' decisions to drink. not exerting that influence to have your kids follow the law and be safe is just, quite frankly, irresponsible and unconscionable. >> ralph blackman, thanks for coming in. >> you're welcome. all right. let's get it over to ron claiborne once against. he has the morning's headlines. >> i like the twin gray thing going on. good morning, everyone. in the news, there will be no increase in social security benefits for the second year in a row, once again to low inflation. democrats propose a one-time $250-payment to all 54 million retired and disabled americans on social security. and weight problems are costing us twice as much as previously estimated. a new study puts obesity-related care at about $168 billion for almost 17% of all u.s. medical costs. and take a look at this dramatic car chase. it happened in brazil, in the middle of rush hour traffic. an escaped prisoner struck cars and police officers in sao paulo. but was eventually apprehended. three people were injured, including the escapee. finally, you find yourself constantly losing your cell phone, this may not be the phone for you. this is an $8 million iphone, sold by the british designer, stewart hughes. it's encrusted with diamonds and gold and platinum. it works like the regular iphone. but get this. it weighs 15 pounds. 15 pound-iphone. time, now, for the weather. and chikage windler, from minneapolis/st. paul. >> we call it the twin cities. what we're talking about in the northeast, is the nasty nor'easter. take a look at some video from south boston. a tree fell down injuring one person. wind gusts in northern new england yesterday, as high as 60 miles per hour in maine. and close to 50 miles per hour out in boston. looking at the gusts for today. they should start to diminish just a little bit. we'll see the nor'easter pull away. the low pressure weakening. that should mean the winds get in the 40-mile-per-hour range today. out to the southwest we go. you can expect to see rough surf on the beaches in california. also a possibility of showers and thunderstorms for places like pho this weather report has been brought to you by volkswagen. dan?

>> it's frightening. it's outrageous. really needs to be taken down. >> reporter: actor brian austin green agrees. >> it's an invasion of privacy. its unsafe. >> reporter: back in 2006, oscar winner george clooney went on the attack against another celebrity source. he says it violated his privacy. and then, hatched a plan to cripple the site by encouraging friends post fake trips. remember the bling ring, charged with ransacking celebrities homes? paris hilton, orlando bloom, and lindsay lohan. they're accused of using the internet and twitter to track the celebrities' movements. and they used google earth to scope out their homes. >> it's nobody's business. it may be legal. but it's certainly not moral. >> reporter: justspotted.com says their goal is to better connect celebrities with their fans. >> the celebrities that are right now really want to get in touch with the fans. if they want to promote their book signing, or music tour, or the next movie, they can do that through our site. >> reporter: the folks at justspotted.com say their database has 7,000 celebrities. and they map them all across the globe. so, dan, you can forget about getting that cup of coffee in peace and quiet. >> oh. i assure you nobody cares what i do. >> and let the record show. we did have your permission to out where you are. you're in oakland, california. you allowed us to say that. >> that is true. that is true. i will consider you one of my loving fans. >> i think most people can understand that jumping in front of a celebrity with a camera is something we don't agree with. but couldn't you say it's a sign of the times to walk outside and tweet if you spot someone? ordinarily, you would have told your friend or wrote about it on your blog anyway. >> technology is blurring that line between privacy and celebrity. these are people with the past history really sought out this attention. but technology is taking it to a whole, new level. >> we'll see there is obviously a big market for this right now. >> huge market. >> becky, thanks for joining us this morning. appreciate it. getting up so early for us on the west coast. >> thanks, becky. >> that's love. coming up on "good morning america," "your week in three words." ♪ [ sneezes ] [ female announcer ] kleenex brand tissues are america's softest.
