Greatest end to a sporting event in history. An answered prayer. So was it . The great debate today, monday, 3 f2nds and all o3 f2 f23 f23 f2 33 f2 3 f2 era un hombre amistoso,3 f22 3 f23 c13 f23 f2 3 f2 f3 f2 3 3 f23 f2 3 f2 f23 f2 f2 f2 33 f2 3 c1 train. We want to take a second to remember one of our own. Jim lovell. An audio technician part of our nbc family and part of every concert we had on the plaza. He was on his way into Rockefeller Center to rehearse and prepare for the lighting of the Christmas Tree when the crash happened. Man that always did his job with grace even under extreme pressure. He was working tirelessly with a smile on his face. In the words of his son finn, words cant express how much my father meant to me. Rest easy, dad. I love you. And all of us here at nbc share those sentiments with the lovell family. Such a gentle man and nice man and greeted you with that famous smile. Everybody loved him and he was so good at what he did. Well miss him dearly. We do want to begin with the accident as our top story and nbcs tom costello is in the bronx with the very latest on the investigation. Tom, good morning. Reporter hey, natalie. Good morning to you. Were at the crash scene. Thats the train crash scene right behind me. You can see they managed to right several of the cars already. Four dead, 63 injured. The engineer is in the hospital. The ntsb is hoping to talk to him some time today. But the ntsb has the digital recordings from both ends of the train. The black boxes. They are hoping that will tell them how fast the train was traveling and might there have been a mechanical problem. Working in the cold under the glare of flood lights crews begin picking up the remains of the north metro train. The deadliest new york train crash in more than 20 years. The job now for ntsb investigators piecing together how this happened on a heavily traveled line along the hudson river. Our mission is to understand not just what happened but why it happened with the intent of preventing it from happening again. Reporter passengers and witnesses describe a horrific scene with victims being tossed through the cars and ejected out the windows. It started to flip and fell over and passengers fell on top of me. There was screaming and people crying out. I saw people being carried out. People that couldnt walk were being helped. Reporter the trip started in poughkeepsie, new york, at 5 54 bound for Grand Central station in manhattan. At 7 20 a. M. , just 20 minutes from its final destination, the train went off the tracks in the bronx near the hudson river. It needed to slow from 70 to 30 Miles Per Hour but many witnesses reported it was going much too fast. The engineer told Law Enforcement his brakes malfunctioned. Coming into the Spuyten Duyvil station the trains make this dramatic 90degree lefthand turn, but in this case they went off the tracks and toward the harlem river. Since speed was a factor, the question is why. Safety is job one and if there is a lesson to learn from this tragedy, we want to make sure that we learn it. So were probably most eager to hear the results of the ntsb investigation. Reporter this is a busy train line. 50,000 people take the hudson line into and out of manhattan every single day and this morning you might imagine theres significant delays and you might want to plan an extra hour to 90 minutes if youre coming in to work today. In some cases theyre on shuttle buses. Standard procedure, the crew given drug and alcohol testing. Theyre also going to check and see how much sleep the crew had just before this accident. The night before. And is there any evidence that they were distracted . Texting while operating the vehicle, anything like that. You may remember, guys, we had several big high profile and terrible accidents recently in which train operators were found to be speeding and texting while operating. Operating. Back to you. Tom costello on the story. Thank you very much. New yorks Governor Andrew Cuomo is at the scene of that derailment. Governor, good morning to you. Good morning, matt. You had a chance to look around. Theres cars everywhere. First responders had to rescue people from within the cars and in some cases under the cars. What was your first reaction when you saw the scene . Well, matt, it was actually much worse than it looked. It was truly a horrific situation. From the pictures you see the trains are tossed about it looks like a childs train set that was just strewn about. As the cars were skidding across the ground they were actually picking up a lot of debris and dirt and stones and the tree limbs were going through the cars. So it actually looked worse up close. And its its your worst nightmare. People get on a train in the morning. They think theyre going out just another day and then tragedy strikes. You said yesterday that you think obviously speed did play a role but you dont know whether it was mechanical error or human error. The ntsb recovered the black box from that train. That will be an important piece in this investigation. Have ntsb officials told you how quickly theyll be able to make the determination between mechanical error and human error . Theyre working on it now. They havent given us a time frame. First of all, we want to know the best we can what happened because we want to learn from this. If theres anything the mta can do to improve the service by looking at this tragedy we want to do it. We also want to get Service Restored because as your piece said this is a very busy line and it will be problematic for the commuters and we would like to get service up toward the end of the week. We havent gotten anything specific from the ntsb. There are several options that could have been a problem with the track. There could have been a quote unquote equipment failure or it could have been just operator errors. Human beings make mistakes. You said there could have been a problem with the tracks. The mta chief engineer recently said that the mta is behind on several safety projects and i guess maintenance projects. Do you think its possible that that played a role in this . Those are the three options that are on the table, matt. Problem with the track, equipment problem, or operator error. Im not an expert in this field. Working with the experts over the past day, i think it is going to be speed related. This was a tricky turn on the system. But its a turn thats been here for decades and trains negotiate all day long. So its not about the turn. I think its going to turn out to be about the speed more than anything and the operators operation of the train at that time. New yorks governor i thank you for your time this morning. I wish it was under different circumstances. Me, too. Thank very much. Were learning about the deadly car crash in california that killed two people including fast furious paul walker. Joe fryer, good morning. Reporter good morning, natalie. Investigators are still looking into what happened leading up to the crash. Meanwhile, here at the scene a memorial for paul walker continues to grow and fans are not the only ones showing up here. One of his wellknown costars also paid his respects. Tyreese gibson said nothing as he wiped away tears for paul walker. Its not the way hollywood stories about good guys are supposed to end. I felt it in my heart. Something was wrong. Walker and his friend took a red porsche out for a drive saturday afternoon. Heres walker standing next to the red sports car minutes before they heard an explosion. We have one vehicle fully involved. Reporter friends ran toward the scene of the fiery single car crash. They tried everything they could to get him out of the car and they couldnt. Of december2 we want you to share your pictures of the morning with us. The todaysunrise. Heres a look at whats making headlines today. Ntsb investigators have recovered the black box from the tragic commuter Train Derailment here in new york. Four people died. More than 60 others were hurt. One of the victims, jim lovell worked for the today show for 20 years. Police in california say speed was a factor in the onecar accident that killed Actor Paul Walker and a friend over the weekend. Walkers fans set up a makeshift memorial at the crash site. And the National Retail federation estimates a record 141 Million People shopped in stores and online over the long Holiday Weekend but for the first time spending was down over last year. We reached the end of our no Shave Campaign to shine light on mens health issues. Re deciding to let you cihappens with our beards. Oh, really . Youre going to leave it up to the viewers. Exactly. So they can say tashe or goatee or mutton chops. What is this here . Thats what they used to call a soul patch in the 70s . We think so. We brought our barber sweeney todd in. When we disappear in that trapped door. You guys like the look. Is it itchy . Past that stage . Now just the grubby stage. We want to begin on a more serious note with the new rossen reports in the wake of the deadly Train Derailment. Officials say theres technology that could prevent accidents like this. Todays National Investigative correspondent jeff rossen is here with more. Good morning. Reporter good morning, no official cause of this accident over the weekend but investigators are looking at speed and possible human error here. Now theres a state of the art commuter system that can literally override the engineer and take control of the train to make sure its not speeding or going somewhere it shouldnt. This morning, the federal government wants it installed nationwide to make us all safer. Officials believe speed was a factor when this commuter train took a curve and went off the rails. But experts claim revolutionary technology could make accidents like this a thing of the past. State of the art Collision Avoidance technology. Reporter its called positive train control or ptc. A sophisticated system of sensors on the rails and inside the locomotive. Even using satellites to track the trains movements and prevent many accidents caused by operator error. If the train is going too fast, the computer warns the crew. If the engineer doesnt slow down, the computer activates the brakes. Ptc helps prevent collisions too. Stopping the train from blowing operator is distracted. It will absolutely save lives. Both crew members, passengers, and maybe people along the wayside as well. Reporter like in spain this summer when this train flew off the rails. The operator took the turn at nearly twice the speed allowed. 79 people were killed. In massachusetts, this transit train collided with another after the operator fell asleep. The ntsb said ptc technology would have prevented the accident. In california, 25 people were killed when this commuter train ran through a signal and collided with a freight train. Again, investigators said ptc would have made the difference. That on board ptc computer will take control of the train and prevent the accidents from occurring. And the ntsb agrees. Positive train control is on its most wanted list of safety improvements. Amtrak is already using it on some routes. So is metro link in california and bnsf, a freight line but Congress Wants it nationwide. Mandating many by the end of 2015, including metro north. The line involved in this weekends deadly derailment. Metro north is working aggressively to meet the governments deadline to start installing ptc, but theyre pushing for an extension to 2018. Law enforcement sources tell us the metro north train operator involved here said he tried to hit the brakes but they just didnt work. Ptc may have helped with that too. It gives engineers an Early Warning about mechanical failures. Back to you. Jeff rossen, thank you. Let us get a check of the weather now from mr. Roker.

He was edged in in the cab of this truck. Six days, six nights, no food. No water. I was lying on top of my dead friend. My dead friend. Reporter rick was trapped along a quite stretch of u. S.

Reporter investigators are looking at speed as a factor in the deadly crash of a new york city commuter train this weekend. Tom costello is in the bronx with the latest. Good morning. Reporter good morning. Were overlooking the crash site and literally 30 seconds ago they moved this train. They finally got one of the cars that was right here and moved it out of the way. We have a live chopper shot to show you of the scene. In total, eight cars including the locomotive went off the tracks yesterday. Four people dead, 63 injured. The engineer is in the hospital. The ntsb hoping to talk to him sometime today. The question is how fast was this train going as it came around this dramatic 90 degree bend. Almost everyone who was on the train or witnesses have said the train seemed to be going very fast and the engineer said he tried to apply the brakes but they didnt work. The question is how fast was the train going . Was there a mechanical problem . The ntsb already recovered the black boxes from both ends of the train. They will look at the data to see what it says about how fast the train was going and theyre also going to be looking at the crews action before the crash, during the crash. This is a big investigation, its likely to take time. In the meantime, its really disrupting the commute into and out of manhattan on the hudson line today. Tamron . Thank you very much, tom. I spoke this morning with one of the survivors that said the crash was like a slow motion movie. He was heading to new york for a dentist convention when the train jumped the tracks. He escaped with cuts and bruises. The train lifted to the left side and started to roll back and forth. It was tossing me like a rag doll and i ended from the right side of the train to the left side smashed into the side wall. He said his daughter who appeared with him this morning decided not to join him on the train trip because she was too busy getting ready for college. Police say speed played a role in the one car crash saturday that killed fast and furious movie star paul walker. He was riding in a red porsche driven by his friend, a former race car driver when it smashed into a light pole and a tree in Southern California and burst into flames. The friend was also killed. Hundreds of fans along with costars gathered sunday at the site of the crash. Walker was 40 years old.

After a few delays prince harrys trek to the south pole is now underway. Nbc special correspondent back buckingham palace. Reporter good morning.

Was he spreading Holiday Cheer or asking for trouble . Theres a guy in minnesota who was feeling a little down on his luck last week. He thought a good way to feel better was to do something nice for other people. So in the middle of the black friday blitz he tossed 1,000 bills from an upper floor at the mall of america. He says it was his last 1,000. So why did he do it . Here was his explanation. I thought i would spread Holiday Cheer and be positive and kind of pay it forward type of thing and make it snow money. So police were not filled with the spirit of the season. They sited him for disorderly conduct. It was 1,000 in bills, by the way. And they only let him go once they were sure no one was injured in the incident. Heres my advice, walk around handing people right. There are other ways to spread Holiday Cheer. Exactly. There you go. Perfect. Good way to do it. Provocative photo making the rounds on instagram is reigniting the debate over fat shaming. Take a look at this fitness blogger.

Stars Dakota Johnson and jamie dornan were pictured on the set in vancouver on sunday. The movie will be released valentines day 2015 and producers plan to put out two versions.

Meanwhile, coming up, were going to check in on the big shave with matt, al, willie and carson and also sir ian mckellan on the hobbit and his two broadway plays. But first, this is today on heres some good news for you, bill is back with muchanticipated second installment as we look at alan getting shaved. The muchanticipated second installment of the hobbit trilogy. This time the master burglar takes on a mighty dragon with the help from gandolf the grey. I found something in the tunnels. Found what . What did you find . My courage. Good. Well, thats good. You need it. Welcome back. Good to see you. Can i start with an apology . What . You came here with that gorgeous beard this morning. The guys thought you were going to no shave november and they took it off. Its all in a good cause. It really is. How have you been . Ive been very well. Ive been busy. Youve been incredibly busy. Ive been involved in plays on broadway. Very handsome. You were just there as they started to trim me. Number one. I want to talk about broadway in a second, but let me talk about this new movie. The way Peter Jackson works, he edits right up to the last minute. So you still havent seen this. I dont think anybodys seen it. And although it has its official premiere in l. A. Tonight, i bet the version we see on december 13th will be a little bit different. Hes still bit tweaking the color. He still keeps going . Hes absolutely obsessed. The minute hes done hell be on to the final one. Because you shot all the elements for the three movies at the same time, you dont really know where one ends and the next begins. No, i have no idea. And i dont understand the plot anyway. I just do what im told. You just stand over there and deliver the line. Theres a lot of action in this movie. And gandolf gets involved. It was great fun. Its lovely being in new zealand with those lovely people. Such a stunning place. Lets talk about why youre so busy. Youre in new york and youre on broadway and youre starring in not one but two distinctly different plays. We did a play called waiting for gutter in london. But that wasnt enough for us. We wanted to do another play, no mans land. So its perfect. And on wednesdays we do both plays. And the audiences come to see both. So we never get bored. Its a secret we dont like to say, but age shows weakness and play gets a bit tedious. Amazing for the audience because some sit through those two and they get to see you in remarkably different roles. And long play and short in another. Its amazing. You were here for thanksgiving. I even have a beard in waiting for gutter, but its a false one. You were here for thanksgiving. Obviously a day off, but you had to work the next day. And on thursday i went to pat stewart and his new wife and she cooked. Family all the time. Ive been having a kick following some of the pictures that patrick has been tweeting of your times together in new york. It looks like you guys are having a blast. We have known each other for about 30 years, its quite genuine. Two of the guys we roll out together. Last night hearing stewart sing. Probably hear some of it. Its nice that weve got actors who Work Together and get along so well. And i just got to put one picture up. Recently you did a charity event. You ended up in your scivies okay, thats not you. Put the real picture up. What is going on there . Well, it was a charity for only make believe that sends Live Performances to hospitals in the new york area. And i was being the master. I came on as if id just run the marathon and changed into my good clothes. It was a very brief moment when somebody took that photograph and it went viral. Cant tell from the derryaire. And a good cause. Thank you. What a pleasure. Thank you. This part of the hobbit opens next friday. This is today on nbc. Carson reveal their fresh new looks.

Temperatures will fall into the low 50s tomorrow. Announcer from nbc news, this is todays take with al roker, Natalie Morales, and willie geist, live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. Welcome to today on this monday morning, december 2nd, 2013. Im willie geist along with al roker and Natalie Morales and no shave november is officially over. Yes. Al looks fantastic. Thank you. You look like denzel washington. I think its a denzel look. My dad wore a goatee the last ten years of his life and he was always a dapper fellow. I may wear it for a little while. Willie on the other hand, were not so sure about willues look. No, im sure its not the look. Not what we are going for. A certain 70s anchorman. A certain someone who wears a burgundy blazer. There we have it. His is so much bushier though. Hes got more. You mentioned your dad, my dad has red hair as well and he has always had a mustache and when i saw this, i said same thing. Thats my dads mustache. His is much better than this. No disrespect to my old man. So we have some time lapse imagine. Its been a long sort of 30 days growing the beard. Lets take a look here at the long journey. I was like wow, is there any growth happening there . Day by day. Its a slow and steady its very slow. But it comes in at the end. There we go. Were speeding it up for you. Lets look at als now. Als is more dramatic oh, now, a little bit. Here it comes. Its like watching a chia pet grow. There we go. Thats it. During the parade, you could really see your beard. It was like the yeah. It was prominent. My daughter was like, dad, it was like a hobo was doing the parade. I said thank you, sweetie. Do you think shell like this look . I dont know. It will be interesting to see. The best part for me is people asking us all month. First they laugh and then you get to shave its no shave november, mens health. You get to tell them about the organizations. This isnt helping anybody. Its hard for me to even look at you. Im knocking this down. It would be nice if you did an oliver hardy. Just a little thats a bad place to go. Yeah. Or you could just work the ends a little bit. Yeah. There you go. A mustache wax. A lot more growth coming. On to serious news to begin with. Right up the river here in new york, crews working overnight in the bronx to pick through the remains of that derailed metro north train. 7 20 a. M. Yesterday. Only 20 minutes from its destination at Grand Central, the train went off the tracks in a turn. 4 people died. 63 injured. The job now is for the ntsb investigators to figure out exactly what happened. Speed, was it a factor, or mechanical problem . The brakes maybe not working is what the conductor had reportedly said when he was interviewed. So all of that of course now being evaluated as investigators try to piece together what exactly happened. But in the meantime we have sadly learned that one of our own from the today show, long time member of the family. Has worked here tirelessly for 20 years, jim lovell was an audio technician, passed away on that Train Derailment accident. He is survived by his wife, nancy, and three sons and daughter. Nancy sent a nice message to us a short while ago. She said jim loved his today show comrades so much. He was all happy to go to work. Ill miss his stories about his time there. He was coming in to work on the Tree Lighting which is happening in two days. On his way to work. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all the families of the people that lost their lives. The other three people and the other 65 people that were injured. Badly injured. Some of them very badly. So its something that we take for granted every day, a, getting up and going to work. Right. And we never know. But, you know, especially something on a commuter line that millions of people take every year. Yeah. Exactly. One of the deadliest Train Derailment accidents in this area in decades. Something so routine. A quiet sunday morning. You roll in, youre going to work or whatever. If you have taken that train, its one of the most gorgeous rides in america. Its beautiful. Used to commute. Along the hudson. Gorgeous. And makes that turn, and continues on into the city. Especially on a beautiful morning, theres nothing you can beat. For that to happen then is just devastating. Tragic. A lot of people talking about that turn. That probably had something to do with it but that turn has been made thousands and thousands and thousands of times. So theres Something Else at work and well certainly learn more from this investigation. Again, our hearts go out to all the families suffering this morning. Other news, kind of an eye opener last night on 60 minutes, amazon has been working on delivery drones that would drop off goods from their warehouses, 30 minutes after click they buy. The technology could be ready less than five years from now. Drone delivery. Do we want this . Theres a lot to work out. Theres a lot to work out. What if, you know, you complain a little too much . Do they send a predator . Thats when things get serious. I just worry about things falling from the sky. And theres another air Traffic Control problems as is. You dont want to add drones. Drones getting hit by birds and all of that. Clearly the faa has not signed off on this yet. No. Really . Thats a long way coming. This came from their workshop and theyre hoping the faa will come around on it. Do they drop your package and spy on you . I think no cameras. Lets hope no cameras. But they say its a guidance system. Like your gps. You plug in the coordinates and it drops it off. I dont know how that works in a place like new york city. An apartment number, do you drop it on the street . I think they might limit it to certain areas. I dont know if midtown manhattan is the way to go. Thats wild. Seems like a crazy idea.

But jim has afib, Atrial Fibrillation an irregular heartbeat, not caused by a heart valve problem. That puts jim at a greater risk of stroke. For years, jims medicine tied him to a monthly trip to the clinic to get his blood tested. But now, with onceaday xarelto®, jims on the move. Jims doctor recommended xarelto®. Like warfarin, xarelto® is proven effective to reduce afibrelated stroke risk. But xarelto® is the first and only onceaday prescription blood thinner for patients with afib not caused by a heart valve problem. That doesnt require routine blood monitoring. So jims not tied to that monitoring routine. [ gps ] proceed to the designated route. Not today. [ male announcer ] for patients currently well managed on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto® and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. Xarelto® is just one pill a day taken with the evening meal. Plus, with no known dietary restrictions, jim can eat the Healthy Foods he likes. Do not stop taking xarelto®, rivaroxaban, without talking to the doctor who prescribes it as this may increase the risk of having a stroke. Get help right away if you develop any symptoms like bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. You may have a higher risk of bleeding if you take xarelto® with aspirin products, nsaids or blood thinners. Talk to your doctor before taking xarelto® if you have abnormal bleeding. Xarelto® can cause bleeding, which can be serious, and rarely may lead to death. You are likely to bruise more easily on xarelto® and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. Tell your doctors you are taking xarelto® before any planned medical or dental procedures. Before starting xarelto®, tell your doctor about any conditions such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. Xarelto® is not for patients with artificial heart valves. Jim changed his routine. Ask your doctor about xarelto®. Once a day xarelto® means no regular blood monitoring no known dietary restrictions. For more information and savings options, call 1888xarelto or visit goxarelto. Com.

Dont put if n yo dont put i your credit card. Is cyber monday really this is made up by the National Federation genius. They made it up. It was hey, black friday, why dont we do monday. They did. That was in 2005. The worlds changed so much since then. People do online all the time. Shopping all the time now. Is it still such a big deal, this day . Its bigger. Its only growing. This whole thing is now where this this is a big Clearing House they put up. You have 800 merchants here. This is cybermonday. Com. This is a fabulous website, only that its look, its all their merchants putting all these deals here. Theres one after another. And you can click, say, for example, the kohls one that i did. Its going to tell you what is their cyber monday deal. It comes up, boom, there it is. For this cyber week, an extra 20 off. Each of the merchants have this kind of thing going on. Thats just that said coupon. If you want a coupon i always see those things. Do you have to do anything special . Is that safe, too . Do you have to print it . Good question. Sometimes you print it, sometimes you dont. Its more often than not you no longer need to carry a coupon into a store. When you shop on line, you dont need to print it. Look at this. This is dealio. Another great site. There it is. Youre talking about where you put in your email address hare to get coupons sent to you. Its okay if you dont mind getting a ton of coupons way after the fact because theyre going to keep on sending you this stuff whether you want it or not later. So a great idea would be to set up a bogus email account or another email account if you have an alternate and call it your name and coupon. Any of those are free to do like gmail or yahoo . I shop on amazon. Its easy, i buy a lot of stuff. I keep my stuff stored. In other words, whenever i hit buy, i dont have to reenter all the stuff in there. I know where youre going with this. Is it safe to keep your credit card data and personal stuff yeah, i dont its a tradeoff. The pros, convenient, you dont have to enter it again. In, out. Suddenly its at your door, right . The downside of that is your information is being stored at their computer, and indeed it could one day perhaps be stolen. Its happened. Is it likely to happen . No. But if it does, your credit card is still going to protect you. Dont use your debit card, use your credit card. Youll never be responsible for anything more than 50. Federal law. I love it when i call and order chinese food. They already have my information. Thats on the phone. Thats not cyber monday. I call. No, were not talking about that do you have a special on egg rolls . Oh, my god. Okay. Got it on speed dial show me please. Frugal its google site for shopping, if you put in frugal spelled like google, youll get this. What it is, its a great way to price compare. So lets search for two things.

Do i want to use them . I want something more reliable even though its a few more dollars more. And search for, say, a Barbie Dreamhouse play set. 128 on line is the best price. 159 nearby. And it shows you all the different options. Right. Will they include shipping . All right. Hold on yeah, all the shipping prices are here as well as the tax. Then they total it for you.
