Were starting to see a lot of the videos now coming into us of those damaging tornadoes. Yeah, take a look at some of the damage were seeing. Cars overturned, roofs ripped off homes, and there is major flooding from these storms. Lets turn to al with what we can expect. Oklahoma city got 7. 1 inches, more than double their record last night, and its not done yet. This is going to be a multiday event going right on into the weekend. Lets show you what weve got going on right now. Again, tornadoes, up to 50 tornado reports from nebraska, kansas, on into oklahoma. And we saw these tornadoes moving across at a very alarming rate. At some point these tornadoes had multiple vortices within them. Multiple funnels of suction causing major damage. Thankfully nobody killed but 12 injured, 2 of them critically in an rv park somewhere right outside of Oklahoma City. We continue to track this. The damage major. And in fact, Oklahoma Citys airport, the will rogers airport, was shut down. People had to be actually evacuated. Jay gray was able to get there because he was able to drive in. And jay, it looks like what you see behind you is some major devastation. Reporter good morning, al. I want to give you a firsthand look at some of that devastation. Take a look behind me. Believe it or not, there were people inside when the storm hit. Miraculously, they all survived here. It was the winds that caused the problems here. Other places, it was the water. In some cases, more than seven inches. Overnight, dangerous storms unleashed a string of tornadoes in and around Oklahoma City. Sirens warning hundreds of thousands to take cover as the violent system delivered tennis ballsized hail and tornadoes. Several touching down throughout the night. That thing just started spinning. Reporter kfor reporter mark dillard found himself in the middle of one. Ive got trees coming down on me and power flashes. Ive got to back out of here. Ive got trees coming down on me. Back it out, mike. Back it out. Reporter some of the twisters believed to be f3s with winds in excess of 158 miles an hour ravaged homes, blew off roofs and knocked down walls. Southeast of Oklahoma City what was once a Storage Facility is now gone. And for the first time ever, a flash flood emergency was declared for Oklahoma City as torrential rains caused widespread catastrophic flooding. Homes and businesses swallowed by the water. Motorists left stranded. Then amid the nights chaos, there was this. Residents in tuttle, oklahoma, told to stay inside after the tiger safari exhibit was hit by one of the twisters. There are wild animals on the loose right now. Thats all we needed, wasnt it, flooding, tornadoes and now wild exotic animals on the loose. Reporter now, all of the animals were recovered quickly. The cleanup, the recovery here is going to take a bit longer. Al . Yeah, jay. And in fact, we spoke with the police chief in Oklahoma City. There are more water rescues going on right now. Jay gray in Oklahoma City, thank you so much. And this is going to be an ongoing event. Right now this is looking at the live radar. You can see heavy thunderstorms south of oklahoma along i35. And weve got this dry line. Thats where that dry air gets sucked into this and makes it even more potent. So for today, weve got the risk of strong storms stretching from wichita, pueblo, colorado, down to dallas. It goes into tonight. Kansas city, wichita, Oklahoma City, austin. 9 Million People at risk. Wind gusts of 60 miles per hour. Isolated tornadoes. Friday, weve got an enhanced risk from central oklahoma, Oklahoma City again included, down to del rio, texas. And this is very unusual. Looking ahead to saturday, there is already a strong risk a strong risk were looking at a major outbreak of tornadoes on saturday. 20 Million People at risk. Wind gusts of over 70 miles per hour. Strong tornadoes. Oklahoma city, again, right in the midst of this, guys. And it lasts right on into sunday. This is going to be a multiday event that could cause major, major problems. Not only just with damage from tornadoes but with the rains, we could see massive flooding as well. So this is going to be a very dangerous event to track. Well spend a lot of time with you this morning. Al, thanks very much. Meanwhile, deflategate is trending in a big way. A muchanticipated report finding its more probable than not that new England Patriots staffers took air out of footballs in the afc championship game and that tom brady knew something about the practice. Nbc National Correspondent Peter Alexanders been on this story since the start. Peter, good morning. Yeah, three months later were still talking about this. No word yet from tom brady but his dad came to his defense speaking to usa today, dismissing this investigation as framegate, not deflategate. So heres your lengthy wells report. 243 pages in all. Compare that to the ray rice Domestic Violence report, just 96 pages. It felt like a thud in new england. The fallout and reaction landing squarely on the shoulders of new englands number 12. Now hes going to be looked at as a quarterback whos cheated, which has helped him achieve his glory. Reporter tom brady is in the nfls crosshairs. The league must decide whether to fine or suspend the reigning super bowl mvp. Brady defended his record to me when deflategate first broke before the super bowl. I feel like ive always played within the rules. I would never do anything to break the rules. I believe in fair play and i respect the league. Reporter but the independent report concludes it was more probable than not that brady was at least generally aware that Team Personnel were deflating footballs before a critical playoff game. The wells report singles out two longtime members of the patriots locker room staff and some of the most telling evidence is a trail of Text Messages between those two locker room attendants. One of them calling himself the deflator. Over the course of months, there were complaints about a demanding brady. Tom is acting crazy about balls, ready to vomit and heavy implications footballs were deflated in exchange for bribes. I have a big needle for you this week. Better be surrounded by cash and new kicks. I think this hurts his image in the short term, but in the long term, i think people are going to still think of tom brady as tom brady the mvp of super bowls and americas quarterback. So while it seems like a big deal now, its still were talking about football. And deflating footballs. Reporter missing from the report, complete texts from bradys phone. According to the report, he refused to turn over call, text or email records to investigators. While brady was a noshow at the white house back in april when even the president joked about deflategate i usually tell a bunch of jokes at these events, but with the patriots in town, i was worried that 11 out of 12 of them would fall flat. Reporter this week bradys been his usual highprofile self, trackside at the Kentucky Derby and ringside at the Mayweather Pacquiao fight on the same day. Hes been silenced so far on the report, but brady did also say this about deflategate back in january. This isnt isis. This isnt, you know, no ones dying. Reporter the rest of the patriots including coach Bill Belichick and owner robert kraft all cleared in this report. When the story first broke, kraft demanded an apology from the league if the investigation turned up no proof his team did anything wrong. On wednesday he reiterated his disappointment in how the investigation was conducted but said the patriots will accept the reports findings and take the appropriate actions Going Forward. All right. Thank you, peter. Meantime, weve got peter king here. He covers the nfl for football night in america and sported illustrated. Hes as plugged into this league as anybody. Good morning to you. Everyones faulting the report for saying more likely than not, using wishywashy legal terms. Does the nfl have the evidence or not . Its a good question. I think they used 23 quivocating terms in a 129page document. I think one of the things the nfl has to look at is how positive are they . Because they are messing with the reputation of one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time. And they have to be absolutely sure, when they penalize him, when they sanction him, that they have the goods on him. Well, thats why theyre in such a tricky position here because they commissioned this report. This is the standard of proof for the league to say if theres a violation, is it more probable than not, they found that it is. Right. Now the request he is how do you discipline him . Right. I think if Roger Goodell and his assistant, troy vincent, executive Vice President of the nfl, find incontrovertible proof in their eyes that brady had something to do with it, that they will sanction him harshly. That is going to be the big question because i dont think we know yet what Roger Goodell thinks, and hes the man holding the cards right now. That suggests you think theres more investigation to be done. I mean, isnt this report supposed to be the final word on it . It is supposed to be the final word, but, you know, the last time this happened when the new Orleans Saints had a report done on them, sean payton, the coach of the saints, went into Roger Goodells office and basically kind of threw himself on the mercy of the court. It didnt work, but again, thats why im not positive that its over right now. When you look at this generally, when you look at the pats super bowl victory they went on to win after all of this, do you think it has a different meaning for a lot of fans . For a lot of fans it will because the patriots are like the yankees, the old cowboys, the team that america loves to hate. And i think that is one of the things that people take great delight in the kingpin getting toppled. And thats why i think people take great delight this morning in looking at tom brady and saying that hey, look. He should get whats coming to him. Needless to say, its being viewed a little differently in boston. Peter king, good to have you. Thanks. So what do you think . Were posing that question on today. Com. Should the patriots keep their 2015 super bowl title . Head to our website to weigh in. Well have results a little later. How about this exchange between the two guys at the center, jim mcnally and john jastrem jastremski. Talked to him last night. He actually brought you up last night. You must have a lot of stress trying to get them done. Brady says he doesnt even know who these guys were. But there were Text Messages. A connection between one of the gunmen who opened fire at that controversial event in texas and isis sympathizers is becoming clear this morning. Our Pete Williams has been talking to investigators. Pete, whats the latest on this . Matt, good morning. A Congressional Committee today hears from experts on this alarming rise in direct terrorist recruiting through social media, just the kind of thing the fbi says was behind the plot to attack the gathering in texas dealing with the prophet muhammad. Reporter in the wake of the plot by two phoenix men to shoot up the texas meeting, isis sympathizers and recruiters have suggested more is coming. You aint seen nothing yet tweets a british isis convert. I smell Something Big coming soon. As investigators look for exactly what prompted the two gunmen, Elton Simpson and nadir sufi, they say simpson was deeply immersed in jihadi twitter accounts including some that called before attacking the event. Two weeks before, it carried the risk of being targeted. Federal Officials Say more than 5,000 people are following the kind of radical twitter accounts that Elton Simpson did. But how to tell which followers are truly dangerous . This is a very difficult task for law enforcement. There are a lot of people who say a lot of things on twitter, and most of them dont carry out terrorist strikes. Reporter people who knew the other gunman, nadir sufi, say he showed no signs of violence, helping out at a nonprofit for the homeless. He was very gentle with the clients that he worked with. He helped them with their computer systems. He was just a really nice person. The fbi says this latest plot dramatically shows how powerfully isis and other terror groups have exploited social media, taking calls for violence directly to people already receptive to the message. Matt, savannah . Pete williams, thank you very much. Turn to natalie covering a big medical story this morning. Thats right. And good news perhaps for parents. A Surprising New study with big implications. Thousands of premature births have found that some babies born at 22 weeks with proper medical treatment are able to survive with few Health Problems. Currently most medical experts consider 24 weeks as the age of viability, but now leading medical groups are considering reducing that. And this study in the new england journal of medicine may help them decide. And it could affect the abortion debate. Well have more on this with dr. Natalie azar coming up later on in the program. New attorney general Loretta Lynch heads to capitol hill today to ask congress for 28 billion next year. And that includes a 40 increase in her immigration budget to deal with the massive backlog of cases. Lynch also wants more money for prisons, grants for things like police body cameras, and funding for civil rights investigations. Former u. S. House speaker jim wright has died. The Texas Democrat served in congress for 34 years, rising to the speakership back in 1987. However, he stepped down as House Speaker in 1989 amid charges he violated house ethics rules. Jim wright was 92. Defense attorneys for Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev plan to call notable antideath penalty advocate to testify today in the penalty phase of his trial. The Roman Catholic nun portrayed in the 1995 film dead man walking is one of two remaining witnesses tsarnaevs Defense Attorneys intend to call. Federal prosecutors have indicated they will file a motion to restrict or prevent her from testifying. We have some dramatic new video this morning of a frightening close call between an airplane and a boat. This happened in argentina. Take a look. There was an air show going on at the same time a Fishing Tournament was happening. And three men cruising down the lake here when take a look, a small plane you saw that buzz right past them, cruising along. The men can be heard laughing. One of them later admitted, though, they were scared. I would be, too. You call it a small plane. It looked big to me. It looked pretty big when it comes that close to you. And broadcasting legend bob euc eucker and his colleagues became trapped in the radio booth in milwaukee. Turns out the door handle broke. It wouldnt open from the other side either. An employee climbed up on a ladder, removed the hinges and finally they got it open again and bob uecker could go on home. Must be in the front row. Thats right. I think he said it was just a little bit inside. All right. Matt, thank you. Mr. Roker, busy morning for you. Ive got to tell you, he is still one of the greatest. He really is. Warm air.

Com, we have a couple questions up there for you, we ask you in light of the report should the patriots keep their 2015 super bowl title . In a sland slide so far, we have 73 saying no 27 saying yes. We also asked you this other question obviously, guys, people overwhelmingly think the nfl should take a stance. Its a little bit of new England Patriots hate in there. No question i think peter said its a little like the yankees, a lot of people weighing in programs more emotionally than logically. Thank you. All right, coming up a today live exclusive.

Take a look at some of the damage in Oklahoma City from that outbreak of very powerful tornadoes overnight. People there are waking up to it. Our look at the headlines, dozens of tornadoes spotted in kansas and nebraska him at least 12 people were injured overnight when one storm tore through parts of the city. Dozens of homes have been destroyed across the region. What will goodell do . The nfl commissioner will have to decide if punishment will be handed out in the deflate gate controversy. Its probable the new England Patriots personnel deliberately deflated footballs in the afc championship game and the top Quarterback Tom Brady was probably aware of the riles violations. Marylands governor lifted the state of mortgages put in place in baltimore following the death of freddie gray. Six officers have been charged in that case. Now a closely watched and controversial case t. Lawsuit by Sophia Vergaras fiance nick loeb over embryos created while they were a couple. Nick loeb will speak out. But hoda is here with more. Guys this started off as a very private battle that has gone very very public after loeb wrote an oped in the New York Times saying quote, our frozen embryos have a right to live. Reporter sophia a lot of people think not bringing the embryos to completion is murder. Any comment . Reporter on wednesday, a smiling Sophia Vergara arrived at lax with her fiance joe manage manganiello. She brushed off paparazzi asking about her battle with former fiance nick loeb. I forgive you for bumping into me though. Reporter in his New York Times oped, loeb wrote, in my view its tantamount to killing them. He wants to raise the children himself. One place she spoke about her ex is with howard stern who, of course went there. You guys break up and you say, look i dont want to have a baby with you, im not involved with you anymore. Can you braham me . A child needs a matter. More than a mother needs a loving relationship of parents. You know that get along, that dont hate each other, that i mean i you hate each other now . I dont hate him, but obviously he has a problem with me. Reporter vergara breaking her silence on loeb. My advise would be go out and find a girl and make a family . And you know what its like i totally understand him, but the thing is this that fortunately or unfortunately, there is law. You wrote, you, you signed paper, legal papers and he if it was so serious for him, this issue, which i totally respect if its serious for someone, then you should have taken it more serious at the time like i did. All right. And nick loeb is with us now. Nick good morning. Good morning, thank you for having me. Lets talk about that agreement as it was stated you seech signed an agreement saying neither of you would bring these empriios to term without the others consent. It sort of seems like a dead issue, is it . We actually signed these forms way at the very beginning before all the processes happened. None of the forms really discussed what would happen in the terms of separation. It was while we were together. After we signed the forms, we went through invitro, creating life putting it into a surrogate once and a surrogate a second time. We went through the process again to create new live then we went and my thought was we would do it again. There was no really thought of well now, shes going to change her mind now were not going to do it. I always assumed with our agreement that we will take it to term. Heres the perception Sophia Vergara, a beautiful actress, about to get married, starting a new life very successful. She doesnt want to have a child with her exe. You are perceived as the guy who cannot let go of a relationship. She wants to move on. I have tremendous respect for sophia. She is very successful. She is very smart. You know we filed this back in october. It had nothing to do with this at all. This has to do with doing moral, legal and ethical contests that are out there about lives we have already created. It has nothing to do with anything else. Now you said this in the New York Times for as long as i can remember, ive dreamed of being a parent. Okay i want to ask you a very very important question. Do you want to have a baby or do you want to have her baby . It has nothing to do with her, her baby or a baby. Lives were already created. We created. A lot of the question is why dont you move on and meet somebody else. No doubt i want to do that. These are two lives i wouldnt toss them aside than a child that had been born. You are 39yearsold lets pretend you find a girl tomorrow. You fall madly in love and say lets have a baby. Is it possible this whole issue would go away if that were the case . Absolutely not. It has nothing to do with one woman over another woman. This has to do with the two lives we created and exist that are two female embryos. So lets pretend, sophia said okay Joe Manganiello and i, we want to take those embryos, we want to have those babies would you be okay in that . As long as i were involved in the parental process, no different than if we had children and i separated. We would have joint custody. They would spend time raising the child. No different than millions of americans out there today. Nick a lot of people say the timing is so weird. The oped comes out at the time that sophia is promoting this movie, on the red carpet. Doing all this stuff and boom it comes out. It looks like a publicity thing. You want press. Unfortunately, i didnt come out with this story to begin with. It was leaked to the press. There were comments made. I felt i needed to come out and correct the record. I submitted the oped to the New York Times a week before it even went out. I have no control when the New York Times prints their opeds. Why did you sign this thing, i was looking through your complaint. I found this interesting. It said theres talk of abuse here. For example you say she physically abused him of four separate occasions. She bunched on two occasion kicked him, threw her phone at his head andrew teenly bullied him, called him loser, and degrading names. You signed this form even they he did not agree with it in order to avoid further abuse. I got to tell you, i was reading this complaint for the first time last night. I read this part and said oh my god what was going on there . So what was going on . I really came here to talk about the embryos, the live wes are creating. I think sophia is a wonderful, wonderful woman. I dont want to sit here and talk about our personal issues we had in our relationship. I dont think thats fair to her. We are both going through a tough time with that. She said on howard stern, a child needs a loving relationship and parents that get along and dont hate each other. She says she doesnt hate you. I dont hate her at all. You know there are 20 million Single Parents in this world and you know i think theyre all working really hard to bring children. So i dont think there is anything wrong with being a single father, a single mother raising a child in america today. Any financial motivation . I think people are going, why would he be doing there . Like whats the deal . Not only do i have financial motivation. I have offered her to waive all financial responsibilities. Ill financially pay to raise this child. Put it in college i can give these children a wonderful life. These girls will be knowing a father fought so hard for them because he loves them so much. You can understand from a mother sophias perspective, you wouldnt want children walking around, inevitably you will say who is their mom. Oh its the lady over there on television. Does not not put her in a position she sort of has to agree in some sense. I let it open to her. If she wants to be involved. If she doesnt want to be involved. Either one is okay with me. I want these children to have the best lives possible. Whatever makes everybody happier, but there is nothing i want to do more than bring these children to life for me. Theyre on a journey and a path way to being born. Why go the other way . We are talking equal rights. Ierer on the side of death . We should be erring on the side of life. So will is a court date or a hearing on the 22nd of may. So well hear more then . Yes. Thank you so much. We appreciate it. Guys back to you. That is fascinating and by the way this is one of those stories where it seems it will be hard for them to find compromise either or not. Some judges decision which is a difficult one to make. And set a precedent as well. Hoda thank you very much. We appreciate it. Lets get a check of weather from al roker. So besides the Severe Weather, we are also watching the possible development of what could become a Tropical Storm or subtropical cyclone anna.

Know what we have in common . We talked to our doctors about treatment with xarelto®. Me, when i had a blood clot in my leg that could have traveled to my lungs. Thats why i took xarelto®, too. Xarelto® is proven to treat and help reduce the risk of dvt and pe blood clots. I took xarelto® for afib. An irregular heartbeat that can lead to a stroke from a blood clot. Xarelto® is proven to reduce the risk of stroke in people with afib, not caused by a heart valve problem. Hey, well im glad we got together. For people with afib currently well managed on warfarin there is limited information on how xarelto® and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. I tried warfarin before, but the blood testing routine and dietary restrictions had me off my game. Tell me about it. Lets see, golf clinic, or blood clinic . Ooh, thats a tough one. Not this time. Not with xarelto®. Anything else . Ill have another arnold palmer. Ok. Make mine a kevin nealon. Really, brian . Hey, safety first. Like all blood thinners, dont stop taking xarelto® without talking to your doctor as this may increase your risk of a blood clot or stroke. While taking xarelto® you may bruise more easily and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. Xarelto® may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. Xarelto® can cause serious bleeding and in rare cases may be fatal. Get help right away if you develop unexpected bleeding unusual bruising, or tingling. If you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto® watch for back pain or any nerve or musclerelated signs or symptoms. Do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve, or abnormal bleeding. Tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. Before starting xarelto® tell your doctor about any conditions such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. Xarelto® has been prescribed more than 11 million times in the u. S.

Some premature babies born at 22 weeks can survive with proper medical care and have few Health Problems. Most medical experts currently consider 24 weeks as the age of viability. Doctor, what does this study tell us and what are the implications of this . First of all, its very important. Because number one, 18,000 premature babies are born every year in this country. 5,000 of born are at 21 to 22 weeks. The thing that comes ott of the study. First of all, it was a well designed study. Rather large. And basically showed that what happens to these babies how much intervention they get very widely based on the hospital youre in. It reaffirms that the babies born before 22 weeks can still make it. A small percentage of the premature babies from 22 to 23 weeks survive. So what is the take away here . The take away this is really important for parents to understand they should know regionally what their hospitals are capable of doing. Have a discussion with your obstetrician, physician, what is their belief system, what experience do they have in this area and to be as informed as possible. As we said, the minority can have a good outcome. The majority of the babies unfortunately born before 24 weeks dont do that well but theres some hope and its rethinking that cutoff. Thanks.

A young mom from minnesota who found out that the pain she has been enduring for Something Like 33 years may have been unnecessary. Nbc National Correspondent kate snow is here to explain that. Good morning to you. Good morning. This is a medical story, but its also really a story about the human spirit and a woman with an incredibly positive attitude. Jean abbott struggled to walk for more than three decades. By the time she hit the 30s she thought shed end up in a nursing home and one little pill changed everything. This is jean abbott in high school, struggling to get up the school stairs. It was painful. It was exhausting. It was challenging. As a child, she was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy. A specific form of it called spastic deplease ya. No one babied me. She took thousands of medications from more than a dozen doctors. She was using a scooter when she met her husband steve. She leaned on him as they cut their wedding cake. They had two girls, but it was tough. She couldnt drive them to activities. As a mom i felt inadequate. People that didnt really know me they would come up and say, you have Cerebral Palsy . Jean looked like she had Cerebral Palsy but heres the crazy part of her story. It turned out she never had cp. Never. In her early 30s, she was referred to dr. Mann who quickly realized it didnt look like classic cp. She walked more easily in the morning and her disability was getting worse with age. My job when i saw her was to think about any other possibility. I thought she was crazy. I couldnt imagine living life any other way. I have Cerebral Palsy. I had been treated my whole life for that. Dr. Nance gave jean a new diagnosis. A rare brain disorder called dopa responsive distone ya. Its a different genetic disorder, not as well known when jean was a child. This is kind of a one in a million disease. And with one big difference from Cerebral Palsy. Drd can be treated with a simple pill. For jean, that one pill meant that after more than 30 years she could walk without help. Now jean could play really play with her kids. To have a child cry for joy, its something you see, she was so genuinely happy for her mom. I thought so grateful. And i want to see more. Theres so much out there i want to see. I want to see more. Shes able to do so many things that we never dreamt shed be able to. Its amazing to see the transformation. My leg is still like jello. Jean made this video showing the difference from when shes not taking her medicine to when she does. My walking is a lot faster. A lot easier. One pill made all the difference. And could have for nearly three decades. Im not angry in the least. All the Life Experience the physical therapy, the surgeries, all the medication, all made me a really strong person. Their 2yearold john wont even remember what it was like when mommy couldnt walk. Jean rode her first roller coaster, took a second honeymoon. You have got a really good life. If this wouldnt have ever happened we still would have had a good life. Im grateful for it. I can honestly say i would go through it all again. All of it. Such a remarkable woman. Jean and her doctor caution that the medication is not a treatment. It is a treatment, rather, but not a cure. Now she still has to get plenty of rest and sleep, but jean hopes by sharing her story she might help others who have this rare disease. Meanwhile, jean says shes not considering lawsuits against all the many doctors who misdiagnosed and treated her. It was a long and winding road to get her to the one doctor who correctly diagnosed her condition. Right. She was referred to dr. Nance and she had seen it before and had read an article in a medical journal and had it in the very back of her mind. But its a very rare disorder so its understandable the other doctors didnt see it. Thank you very much. Theres more of jeans story on our website. Thats today. Com.

My mom and dad some years ago came out to this Small Community and fell in love with this particular piece of land. This home was a dream for all of us. And one thing they always wanted was a vegetable garden. He wanted tomatos. He wanted corn. Greens herbs. Peas cucumber he wanted everything. The problem was we had rain that year. It rained out. He said mary im done. So he was done on the garden. Reporter the garden went unplanted. In 2008 before they could try again, my dad suddenly passed away. I remember this conversation with her one day i flat out said are you going to keep going . And she looked at me in my mothers way and never said a word but i knew i could see that resilient spirit in the middle of all of that heart break that she was here for us. Shes taught me to be resilient. Shes my inspiration. There isnt a mothers day gift big enough to fully thank my mom for all that shes meant. But last year on mothers day, i remembered my parents unfinished plans. The next thing i knew you had purchased all of this stuff for a garden. Did you have high hopes for my garden . Really . Yes, come on. Turns out, im no gardener. Im like what happened to my garden . At some point something did grow. I dont know to this day what it was. But it was grown with love. Even though my garden failed. I always wanted to have that for her. So this year i gave it another go. This time with the help of Country Gardens magazine and editor james bagett. One of the main problems was shade. I planted in the wrong spot . Its in the wrong spot. Thats why it failed. We will have a perfect garden you cant fail with. A cant fail garden. I promise you will have tomatos and zucchini coming out your ears this summer. After finding the right spot they went to work leaving me with some mom time. You are so resilient. You lost your mom when you were how old . 11. Then dad has passed away. I hope what i instill in you, thats going to be time that you are going to fall get yourself up dust yourself off and go on. My goal was to have a home to raise you and your brother and now raising my grandchildren with the fathers help and the mother.

Our friend tom brokaw has been battling cancer for much of the year. Hes faced much of what hes faced and the impact on his family in the new book lucky life interrupted. Good morning, tom. The truth of cancer is it affects the patients whole family. Our family had been on a long streak of very good fortune, what our friends call the brokaw lucky star. Suddenly i was facing an incurable but treatable cancer. In the early stages i had to be med evacced out of montana because the pain was so great. I was paralyzed by the pain. Sara our youngest daughter was there with our newest grandchild, archer. She realized i may not be around forever. When did you realize i might have been sicker than you thought . When we were in montana and you were having a lot of back pain and you asked for a kiss from archer and we leaned down to give you a kiss and your body just convulsed. You just your body became paralyzed, and i thought, something is seriously seriously wrong. All of a sudden recognizing that, no life is so finite and you might be gone. In my new book i recount what happened next and hope to offer some guidance to other families who face cancer. Just four days earlier i had been diagnosed with a blood cancer called multiple myeloma. I was keeping it a secret between meredith and me. I was determined to go on with my life at full force. Not knowing how unrealistic that would be. I did a dumb thing. I get up and i feel not too bad so im going to go fishing. I was going to drive 150 miles across montana to meet friends to fish. At a friends stream a half hour into the day i had to crawl out of the water into a nearby cabin porch and curled up in agonizing pain. I lay there until another friend of mine came along and said my god, whats going on. A fishing buddy drove with me for three hours back to our ranch. I was in bed for two days immobilized by pain. At that point meredith my wife had seen enough. She put in a call for the emts and a med evac flateight to the mayo clinic more than a thousand miles away. Then we got down to the ambulance. I think i was kind of hallucinating. I dont think i was checked in at that point. I think that you were in so much pain that its hard to even recall for you what that was like, i think. When the emts arrived to carry me out for the ride to the airport my daughter sara confronted her mother. I said tell me right now whats happening to dad. I need to know right now. And she said well he has multiple myeloma. Sara thought immediately of archer. It was awful. Especially because he was only six months and i was mad too. I thought, you have only had six months with him. I wanted to envision you playing baseball with him and fly fishing and not knowing if that was ever going to happen. And thats the good news is that i am in remission. The cancer is in what we call a check place. Ill be on a drug Maintenance Program for the rest of my life but thats better than the alternative. You take this the right way when i say it. There was a time a year ago, eight months ago when i would see you and you didnt look so good. You didnt look as good as you look today. It was a lot harder than i thought it was going to be. We tried to keep it a secret by the way. You did keep it very private. You told a few of us but you didnt share the story. So what was the decision to share the story now . Well the decision was that i thought i could be helpful to other families. This is a book not just about tom brokaw having cancer. Its really about what i learned and what families need to know when cancer invades their family because it is an invasion. There is a great line about cancer. Doesnt care if youre a mother father if you have children. It only cares about declaring war on your body. The whole family does get involved. Then its important that Cancer Patients also help manage their own cases. And i describe how they can do that, being honest with your doctor. There are a lot of sites that you can go to at the mayo clinic. Dana farber Sloan Kettering to find out more about the kind of cancer you have. Happy to see you looking so good. Im doing much better. Youll share more of your story on dateline, a special tonight. Do your kids care more about getting the grades or learning. First, this is today on nbc. E more about the grades or learning. First, this is today on nbc. music hey let me help with that. Oh, thank you music introducing the oneandonly Volkswagen Golf sportwagen. The sportier utility vehicle. Back with an eyeopener with parents and teens. According to a Princeton Review survey when it comes to getting into College Students feel learning is actually less important than getting good grades. Katie obrien and hunter mots are contributors to the Princeton Review. Good morning to both of you. This is very very interesting. Well put our first results on the board. 90 of students said getting good grades is important. Ill buy it. Only 6 say they care about whether theyre learning. This is why we were so excited to collaborate with the Princeton Review on this study. It takes some of the focus off just grades and test scores and really onto how are students thinking and feeling on a daily basis. That seems a little bit disturbing to me. Theyre sort of results oriented but they dont care if they learn. Thats a problem. That sort of attitude will get you into college but really wont get you through college. What ends up happening is there is a myth in america that you have to make a choice. Either get good grades and be stressed or have a fun life and get mediocre grades. Its not a choice. You can have great grades without the stress. 43 said the College Acceptance is what drove them to get good grade. Obvious. 100 . Yes. Lets talk about students stress. We have a next series of stats. 25 said homework causes the most stress. Thats no surprise. Students reported they spend onethird of their study time stressing out. Which is a ton of wasted time. We now know from science that stress shuts down the learning process. So that third of the time that theyre stressing out theyre not learning anything. Students need to know that stress can be managed and its something you can deal with. I think thats one of the most remarkable results that you have, that a third of the study time is freaking out basically. Exactly. Parents and students should know there are things you can do about it starting tonight. If you need to get the stress out of the study process students can do an emotional reset. When you feel the stress take a deep breath tell yourself this is just an assignment. I have to do this so my dad lets me use the car or whatever it takes. Then break the assignment down into pieces. If you have 20 calculus problems do the first three and see where that gets you. We have results from parents too. These are also interesting. 43 of parents said they check in about grades regularly. Once a month. 76 said they check in more than that. Surprising . They check in more than that. Surprising . Well its not surprising. I think the thing that was most powerful about this was the disconnect. In general, parents feel they are checking in twice as often as students report they are checking in. Its possible parents are check income that often. Its when the teenager is running through the kitchen. You ask them how their school is going. Theyre going fine that i are hearing you half of the time. There is another result. 50 said their parents ask you to do better. The parents said oh no 77 . I encourage them. So basically, parents think they are more encouraging than the students think they are. Absolutely. One of the issues is that parents want to help. They dont always felt they k. That makes sense, few are a parent. You might not have taken algebra ii for years and years. What you can do is say, i dont know how to do this either. Thats almost more helpful. If you cant go through the textbook with them. Get an academic support system in place a. Sibling, a teacher, a tutor, their online resources, available 24 7. Physical out what that will be to get your student through that process. Thank you very much. Interesting results. Appreciate it.

[ ] im gettin out im gettin out im gettin out gonna have a look around now is the time i started flyin both feet off of the ground head in the sky eyes open wide happy to look around this morning on todays take. Josh hartnett on why he returned to television for a dreadful role. Pope francis showing his skills. Nick loeb speaking out on that embryo battle. All that and more coming up now. From nbc news this is todays take with al roker, natalie morales, willie geist and tamron hall. Live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. Welcome to today. Its thursday morning, may 7th 2015. Lets call it a chamber of commerce day. It is beautiful. There is a big crowd on the plaza for the weekend. Tamrons favorite. Im tweeting the picture al roker took of the weekend, not with me because we couldnt get near him. I sent you a couple of selfies i took. You took selfies. You were far away. He is very elusive. He doesnt like to give tvs. He has never given a full interview. I think you take a camera down there and ambush him. Ambush him with my camera . Hes probably gone with his body guards. He draws a crowd. Huge thursday morning. Coachella. His fan base is huge and diverse. Let me tell you. You want to pop that in and listen to it all weekend. I know he is called the weekend. I started him referring to the band as the weekend. Thats my confusion too. If he would only come on todays take and do an interview and clear it up is the band the weekend or is he the weekend . Im sure people will tweet the answer but we want to hear it from him. Is he named offer the o jays song living for the weekend. He left one weekend and never game back home something about that. In canada. There is a story behind it. We may never know. Thats the mystery of the weekend. What else is fascinating, the interview hoda did earlier. A lot of people are waiting to hear both sides of the story. Were hearing from nick loeb. The story is about the embryo battle. He is the former fiance of Sofia Vergara. He wrote an oped in the New York Times last week. He is talking about the lawsuit that he has with Sofia Vergara. Hes talking about his fight and talking to wanting to have a surrogate have the baby girls, as he calls them. The custody of the two frozen embryos he shares with Sofia Vergara is important to him and he feels like he deserves to be a father. Wants to be a father. Take a listen to what he had to say this morning. Do you want to have a baby or do you want to have her baby . It has nothing to do whether its her baby or a baby. Lives were already created. We created a lot of question is why dont you move on and meet somebody else. No doubt i would love to do that. It doesnt matter that two lives have already been created. I wouldnt just toss them aside. No different than a child that had been born. Interesting point of view. Its the right to life he is saying. These are children essentially that, you know deserve to have a life. But on monday Sofia Vergara told howard stern that bringing children into the world under these circumstances would be selfish. She said that loebs plan would violate a contract that they both signed which when you sign that contract its saying that you mutually agree that youre going to bring these children up in a world that you come to terms with youre agreeing that you are bringing them. You both agree and agree with whats going to happen to the embryos. Exactly. Exactly. So he did admit to hoda that he signed the contract before Going Forward with the idea and stating nothing could be done with the embryos unless they both agreed. But the contract didnt specify what happens if you separate as a couple and i guess thats something thats required by california law. So its an interesting legal battle but i think its one that could possibly set a precedent for other people in this position where you have the frozen embryos and when you do break up what happens to them if, you know the mother or father potentially want to be able to have that baby then have life. A lot of couples are probably having that discussion. A lot of people have frozen embryo ands what are they going to do. Theyll probably lartstart looking at that. What about her right not to have two or three or however many children in the world that are hers and is she obligated to be a part of their life. Hoda asked him that. He said he would raise the children on his own. He doesnt want her help if she doesnt want to be a part of it. I thought hoda did an amazing job. I think she asked all the questions people wanted to hear him answer. And he said it would be up to her. But what if you know suddenly the daughters, as he refers to them as find out who their mother is. This is a lot of questions. Perception too in the timing of this. He is coming forward at the time where she is out promoting what is a star turn for her in a movie. She is a leading lady. A wedding. Planning a wedding with her now fiance. The timing of it of course is why now. There may be other motives. Lets just say. Can you let go of her. Thats the question. Can he let go of her and move on. As he even suggested people asking him that question moving on having a life with somebody else and maybe a family. She talked to howard the other day and said thats about all im going to say about it. She is moving on. Remember when deflategate was the biggest thing in the world for a couple days. Its back. The report called the wells report after ted wells who did the study. It was found that, quote, it was proper probable than not two too locker room attendants did deflate footballs prior to the afc championship game that the patriots won against the colts and led them to the super bowl. The report concludes it was, quote, more probable than not that tom brady, quote, was at least journal aware Team Personnel were deflating footballs before the playoff game. Is this a revelation . The Text Messages were very revealing. But had people pretty much come to the logical conclusion yeah. Pretty much. We wanted to know what the proof was, though. Its all circumstantial stuff. I dont know. The Text Messages are pretty damning. You could never convict anybody on those. At the same time where is tom bradys side of the Text Messages . Hes in them. Hes not revealing them. Hes not giving over his Text Messages. Which might be telling. If you have nothing to hide you know and tom brady is if you were on Hillary Clintons service. You would say here is my phone. There were questions of a larger patriots conspiracy. This report found that the ownership, bob kraft, didnt know anything. That the head coach Bill Belichick did not know anything. That the equipment manager didnt know anything. It kind of narrowed it down to tom brady and the two locker room guys. If you use common sense you say these guys are not going to do this without at least winking consent from tom brady. I think you can still conclude that. But there is no concrete evidence tying brady to it. What happens now . Nothing. Is there going to be any kind of a punishment . A suspension . Fines. I doubt it. I doubt it. I bet the Players Union or whatever will get involved. There wont be. Any fine or suspension of tom brady is a statement by the nfl that they believe he cheated. From that point forward with no proof. His legacy is tainted. Thats a huge decision for the league. Does this still boil down to people who like the patriots and people who dont . A lot of it. I think you have the optimism that exists in the new england area and outside of that people there is no proof. The debate will go on. I have to tell you, we loved your piece with your mom earlier today on today. It was just really special. Thank you. All week long weve been celebrating our moms cooking our dishes. Willie said his mom started crying yesterday about the fet cheen cheni. People across the country said i made the pasta and loved it. I missed it.

I grew the pods. This year Country Garden home along with the editor came out and showed me where to grow the garden. The over all message was resilience. Al youve lost your parents. Weve all had different losses. My mom having lost her mom at such a young age. She said that she was determined to be the best mom, and she has lived up to it.

A virgin suicide, he played captain danny walker our hearts racing in the epic pearl harbor now he made it to the small screen for Penny Dreadful he happens to be hiding a secret of his own. Good morning. Good morning. Spoiler alert for those who havent been following along, the secret you have been hideing is you are a werewolf. A werewolf. You are unawarewolf. I havent heard that before. Thats fantastic. He doesnt know hess a werewolf. He knows things are happening. He blacks out, wakes up things have gone incredibly wrong in his vicinity. He is putting together what that is. At that time there was no lore of a werewolf. He doesnt know the concept of who he is. Josh for people who may just be coming to Penny Dreadful i mean its fleeky to faint backdrop of this show you created . Its victoria london 1890s. A lot of the characters are taken from victoria horror literature treated as real people. They bump into each other. They all sort of know each other and, craziness ensues. To say the least. This is a horror i mean a horror genre i mean really in the true sense of the word. Are you attracted to that . It wasnt necessarily the genre that attracted me. Its because john logan who has written everything from sky fall to the afiator to gladiator asks. Sam mendes directed american beauty and this great director was directing the first few episodes i thought these were great amazing collaborators, to work with. If you work with tv you want to work with good people giving consistent material. You seem so thoughtful in the roles you choose i recently read batman. Tell me the truth, did you turn down batman . I think that story got blown out of proportion. Sometimes when things go from your mouth to the page. You are telling us. Through the blog sphere. It end up being a game of telephone. I said back if 2002 or 2003 i had a meeting with a director who i thought i should have formed a relationship with and i liked a script that he had that his brother had written and he ended up doing that next. I said to him at the time i really want to do this. We were talking about batman. It wasnt what i was interested in. I said that in that interview that i thought i should have formed that relationship not knowing more about hollywood now, i would have definitely done anything to stay in that relationship and make you know multiple films. It doesnt know what it is. Its all lies . Its a reinterpretation of the truth. Okay. You keep really busy it seems with directing and producing as well. Do you prefer that to acting . Its much less nerve racking on the camera, i have to say. I like to be a little more in control. You know and here im giving up all control to you guys. Whenever im on screen. But, yeah i like both.

A new Study Confirms what we all have been told since we were kids eat your fruits and vegetables it found people who ate healthy diet had 24 less decline to have cognitive decline and memory loss. What did you see . Here what you need to know is dr. Natalie asur. What did the study find . So the study looked at a population of people at high risk for cognitive decline. That means people over the age of 55 men and women who had a history already of stroke, vascular disease, heart disease, we know they are at risk of cognitive decline as they get older. What they found. They took a questionnaire and did a mini mental status exam looking at a number of different docknytive variables as well cognitive variables. There were 150,000 people in the study. A fair number experienced cognitive decline over a number of years and found the people with the least healthy diet were more likely to experience it than people that ate a healthy diet. Fruits and vegetables are a specific category. Are there specific fruits and vegetables we should be eating . They didnt break that down. There are a few caveats, for example, some people dont like tomatos, they find it to be pro inflammatory. In general, the vegetables linked to Better Cognitive Health were nuts. This is a big one. I know they get a ton of press as they should particularly almonds and walnuts, but generally speaking we are talking about fish a moderate amount of red meat not a ton. A moderate amount of alcohol and of course fresh fruit and vegetable, the socalled mediterranean diet. Where do we see exercise in this. Exercise helped for this. They think one power of the study they tried to correct for certain confounding variables, preexisting hypertension and physical activity. This is interesting. We know good food like this is good for heart health. Now we have subjective evidence its good for brain health. Thank you so much. For more information, check out today. Com.

Im kris sanchez. The search is on this morning for the man in this chilling video. He is attacking a san jose girl in her own home. The 13yearold girl managed to fight the man off and police say that was after he followed her home from school and likely had no idea there were surveillance cameras in the home. The same man is believed to have targeted at least one other young woman. Police fear he may be bold enough to strike again. We know who killed the humpback whale in pacifica this week. Scientists say it was struck by a passing ship. The whale suffered four broken vertebrae and hemorrhaging around at least one broken rib. Another whale washed ashore last month.

An important new study of thousands of premature births found some babies born at 22 weeks with the proper medical treatment are able to survive with few Health Problems currently most medical experts consider 24 weeks as the age of viability but now leading medical groups are considering reducing that. And the study raises new questions for parents on how intensively to treat those infants. Most cases are treated with measures like ventilation and intubation to improve the functioning of babies lungs. If you have allergies, you know that pollen is bad in parts of the u. S. Especially this time of year. In the northeast, a combination of a rough winter and a delayed spring has helped create what one expert calls a pollen tsunami that is covering cars and porches with lots of green residue. No doubt youve seen it all around. Experts say that you should consider lowering or showering, rather, at night to wash the pollen off of your body and outside to hose down the green pollen instead of sweeping it away. A company that keeps track of what business travelers put on their expense report says starbucks is the restaurant that most is most frequently expensed followed by mcdonalds, panera bread and subway. The firm certify says businesspeople eat most of their breakfast at starbucks, lunches at subway and dinners at mcdonalds.

There is a spanish section. Goya makes these shells perfect. You can make them at home. Put the filling in the middle. Yu like that. Okay. Then what you will do is pull it over. Okay. Take the egg wash with a little of water inside and then around the edges of the shell. All the way around. On the one side is fine it doesnt matter. Then you will fold it over. As i said use that fork press down to make those little. How long do you bake it . Seals. Until its delicious golden brown. A little egg wash on tom you bake it. They come out looking like this.

If you ask any mom, she will say she find inspiration in children. Thats what happens to two women who turn their kids ideas into booming businesses. These are for school. These are for the park. 8yearold Ayla Blumberg had a creative streak. As a toddler, she was climbing drawing, and experimenting with fashion. I think my daughter was two. 5 years old when she started to have fun with her unique creative wardrobe choices. The most memorable choice opting to wear mismatched shoes with every out fit. As a mom, i wanted to embrace her creative spirit. Shelves a little off balance because the out soles will be different. Thats when her mom had an idea. A void i wanted to start a company that empowers kids to express themselves creatively. Shoes was born if 2011 featuring boys and girls footwear. Each shoe a different pattern with hundreds of thousands of shoes sold it is sharon and husband marks fulltime job and alest title. Im the chief tester of shoes him. I try them on tell them if theyre comfortable. I loing a at their designs. The coolest this inc. Is that my daughter inspired me. Now im getting to inspire her. I hope she learns from me she can come up with an idea and really make it happen. I started my company just out of sorry, just out of love for my kid. You know i just wanted to do something for him. Abigail wall was also inspired by her family to create a business. When arthur was born he was just really sensitive. He was sensitive to gluten and dairy, i couldnt needle anything he had reflux all the time. So they put him on a strict diet no gluten corn, sugar. I had to say no to everything he wanted to eat all the time. We were literally that family eating kale and carrots in the corner while other everybody was eating blue birthday cake. Fed up abigail decided to create something her son would love to eat. I went in the kitchen and put all the things i can say yes to and make something and after about two hours, i had made this thing and i put like 30 of them on the plate and they were gone in like five minutes. Like oh you guys like that thing . And theyre like yeah more more. And in that moment the yes bar was born. Its now sold online and in over 80 stores. I like the berry. For me its much bicker than a little snack bar, its about being who you want your kid to be and being what you want to put out there in the world. Very nice. By the way, the yes bars were even given to celebrities at the 2014 golden globe. We dont have one. Can we have a yes bar . I want some of those shoes for my kid. How cool. This has turned into our own shopping show. We are back in a moment. This is today on nbc. Amazing. Hi wladz, how are you . Great. I have a quick shout out. Yesterday in d. C.

Lets get this party started. Well were also going to have your music. Yes, an ihoda week. Youve had a busy morning. Its billy called you. Billy called me on this. Nick lobe decided to finally speak. He was engaged to Sophia Vergara. They had some embryos. Two frozen female embryos. And now nick has come out and said he wants those embryos so he can have these children without her. They signed a contract . Iron clad . Most attorneys say it is a contract. Both people agreed not to bring the embryos to term unless they signed off on it. We had a discussion about that. Lets take a listen to this. Do you want to have a baby or do you want to have her baby . It has nothing to do with her baby or a baby. Lives were already created. We created a lot of the question is why dont you move on and meet somebody else. No doubt id love to do that. But two lives are already created. I wouldnt just toss them aside no different than a child that had been born. Lets pretend you meet a girl tomorrow and say lets have a baby. Is it possible this whole issue would go away if that were the case . Absolutely not. I was looking throughior complaint and it says theres talk of abuse here. For example you say she physically abused him on four occasions, kicked him and threw his phone at her head. Bullied him, called him a loser, worthless and other degradesing names. You signed this portion of the form directive even though he did not agree with it in order to avoid further abuse. I was reading this complaint for the furst time last night and said what was going on there . What was going on . I really came here to talk about, to deal with the embryos. I think sofia is a wonderful, wonderful woman. I dont want to sit here and talk about our personal issues we had in our relationship. I dont think thats fair. Wow. Good job, though. At the same time she was speaking out. She was speaking out an another show. I dont like promoting my private life. I dont want this man to take more advantage of my career and try to promote himself. I asked about the timing. Is this about Getting Press . He says no. Regarding the lawsuit it shouldnt be out there for people to give their opinion when theres nothing to talk about. Theres papers signed a court date. He shouldnt be creating something so ugly out of nothing. The court date is coming up in may. On the one hand i agree with her. You dont want your private court situations made public unless theres some good for the in the public interest. This is its very i understand why she doesnt want it. Its obviously not flattering for her. It also may not be true. What it does people do have opinions. Once its out there in the publicarena, everybody is going to what once he put the oped in the paper it became a bigger story. He talked about this stuff. I asked him, lets pretend that sofia and joe who are starting their new lives wanted to have a baby and they wanted that embryo. Its half hers. How would you feel . He said hed want a role in the parenting of it. Are you worried about the lives of the embryos, the children or wrd about yourself and being a dad. Or potentially just jealous that shes moved on so quickly with her life. Getting married to one of the sexiest men in the world. He was in her shadow forral that time. And joe is a very accomplished guy. Maybe its a little of everything and a lot of all of it. Its going to play out. May 22nd well probably find out if that contract was iron clad. Why have contracts if they dont mean anything. Its not something you can say thats settled in case were not happy with it. Something should mean something in this world we live in today.

Now its time for a little game we like to call freeze it or eat it. When we figure out which foods are okay to store in the freezer. And which are not. Here is nbc news health and nutrition editor madeleine bernstrom. Were going to play one of our favorite games. When youre going to take this food and its left over. Were not talking about safety. Were talking about taste, and texture. These are all safe. Potato salad berries, burgers, hot dogs deviled eggs alcoholic beverages and fresh fruit pies. 20 seconds to determine if you want to put it in the freezer. In this batch. Or in this basket. This is stuff you want to eat now. And then well compare them. Ready, set youll put all this together. Look in. That looks like strawberries. For taste . No i take it back. Taste, texture can you freeze it or eat it now . Potateo salad. Better eat that. Freeze that. You can freeze that . Wait a minute. We thought we no guacamole, you have to eat now. Whats that . Pie. Lets start with potato salad. Hoda said freeze it. I say freeze it. And you would be wrong. You want to eat the potato salad. I didnt know what was in there. You cannot freeze mayonnaise containing things. Next we have fresh berries. Hoda says yes. And kathie you can freeze them but theyll be just like the the taste and texture. Nothing is better after its been frozen is it . Nothing tastes better. So kathie lee gets the second one. Imagine that. Grilled burgers. Burgers are fine. I said freeze it. Freeze it for up to three or four months. Lets go to deviled eggs. They are best fresh. And the thing is you have to eat it. Eggs dont freeze well. The mayonnaise and egg whites get really rubbery. Lets go to guacamole. Kathie lee, you said eat it. You are both wrong on that. Im sorry, but i dont like it if its been frozen. Avocados freeze well. If you have lime juice in it it turns that nasty color. Sorry, madeleine. How about the leftover drinks . You have to drink it freeze it. Alcohol lasts forever and that frozen slurry is great. I put my vodka in the freezer. You can have it as a slushy. Completely disagree. Hoda said eat it. I said freeze it. And you would be right. I still dont understand this game. I think you won. I dont care if i win. You won. I dont care. Whats the prize . Oh, i do care. Thank you. All right. Wheres madeleines.
