Especially now that i live with a higher risk of stroke due to afib, a type of irregular heartbeat, not caused by a heart valve problem. I was taking warfarin, but wondered if i kept digging, could i come up with something better. My doctor told me about eliquis. For three Important Reasons. One, in a clinical trial, eliquis was proven to reduce the risk of stroke better than warfarin. Two, eliquis had less major bleeding than warfarin. And three, unlike warfarin, theres no routine blood testing. Dont stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Those three Important Reasons are why eliquis is a better find for me. Ask your doctor today if eliquis is right for you. Welllllllll, not when your .

Love that the children were apparently the wedding planners. Sweet. Well have detail as head. We begin with the latest on that massive hollywood hacking crime. Provocative protos of such big stars as Julia Louisdreyfus and kate upton and posted online. The fbi is investigating and abcs Rebecca Jarvis has that story for us. Reporter from Jennifer Lawrence to kate uptown this morning the fbi says its actively investigating what could be the largest hack of racy celebrity photos in history. More than 100 star leis allegedly targeted by a user called himself blunt mastermind who posted them to the website 4chan. This is a frag plant violation of privacy. The authorities have been contacted and will prosecute anyone who posts the stolen photos of Jennifer Lawrence. A representative for upton confirming the authenticity of the pictures and prompting legal action. Others including arianna grand da, Victoria Justice calling their pictures fakes. Either way the alleged hack is raising major security concerns and not just for celebrities. It appears at least some of the material came from some sort of cloud, that is servers which store all of our data from our emails to our pictures. If you use Services Like dropbox, google, apple or facebook, your data is in the cloud. Even if you have deleted photos from your phone oftentimes theyve already been uploaded to the cloud. If you dont have a picture you dont want anybody to see ever you shouldnt take it to begin with. Its not clear how the celebrity photos were leaked but apple says it is investigating whether any of its systems were compromised. We take user privacy very seriously and are actively investigating this report. So how can you protect your own photos and information on the internet . Use unique and separate passwords for all your accounts. And able twostep verification on all apps. First user name and password and random randomly generated private code via text message and accept Software Updates that arm your smartphone with protection. Sources telling me they believe this hack was not into apples icloud which has some of the strongest safety protections but no another Cloud Storage provided offering offering this warping to anyone trying to search for those online, hackers are already exploiting the issue and they are posting fake links that claim to take you right to the pics but instead they are taking you straight to a virus you download on to your computer or phone. Not wasting any time with that. We bring in abcs chief Legal Affairs anchor dan abrams. Oftentime when this happens there is no prosecution. Will it be different this time . If no question that the law is behind the technology on this. But there are a whole host of potential crimes here. Youve got talking about the ability of identity theft, wiretapping, unauthorized access to a computer. Remember 2012 there was a case where someone had improperly and illegally accessed the emails of Scarlett Johansson and Christina Aguilera serving ten years so this is serious stuff when it comes to the law. How about those celebrities who have said these are fake. Theyre not real. That takes them out of the criminal and civil realm. There will be some who say i want to sue, et cetera, anyone saying its not me is immediately going to be saying in effect im not going to be part of this case because as far as im concerned these arent pictures of me. You said the hackers are in deep trouble here. How about the websites that post these photos. Look, theres there are protections in the law that protect websites from information that individuals post on them. But the individuals who are now there are some individuals who are going out and reposting some of these photos, theyre getting in trouble from places like twitter and et cetera and could certainly theoretically be sued at a later time but i dont think thats likely but the focus on the person who committed this offense. Dan, thank you. Thank you, guys. An unusual story about a murder suspect facing a big gamble. He has the chance to balk free without facing trial if he can prove his innocence by passing a lie detector test. It could backfire. Reporter gustavo dubond facing life in prison in the highprofile murder case of a prominent florida businessman and facing a high haf stakes challenge from prosecutors. Agreed to take a polygraph, pass and walk free. But fail it and have it used against him at trial. He is accused of the brutal 2007 killing of francisco cuevas, a father of four. He was charged with kidnapping and first degree murder last year after police say he confessed. He has pleaded not guilty but in this shocking recording two detectives working the case caught on tape telling their supervisor they think dubond is innocent. Seriously, seriously, serious doubts dubon had anything to do with it. Reporter one detective failed to remove his microphone after reviewing an unrelated suspect in another case and it was released to the attorney for dubon. They say he gave a false confession. He doesnt know where the body is. We dont know anything about the body. What you hear in that is an intelligent debate between two officers and their sergeant. Reporter greg rossman still moving forward with the trial but offering the polygraph as a possible get out of jail free pass. If, in fact, the defendant passes the polygraph as to their involvement in the crime we drop the case. Reporter according to the American Polygraph Association proponents say theyre accurate around 90 of the time while critics would argue thats closer to 70 . The next hearing in the case set for thursday and dubon still undecided whether he will take the polygraph. For Good Morning America, ryan smith, abc news, new york. Wow. He has a big decision ahead. Boy, ginger, that picture straight out of wizard of oz land. Mammatus clouds is what theyre called. They almost look like a painting. I know, it does make sense. But the other storms you can see in the back, austin after the storm pats but can be before so kind of just around storms is when you see them.

Back now at 7 42 with a gma investigates and an incredible new experiment this morning revealing what to do if youre caught in a flash flood or fastrising water. Abcs matt gutman bravely got behind the wheel to test out a new way to escape a submerged car. Reporter imagine youre behind the wheel of a car speeding around a corner one moment then losing control crashing into a lake the next. Youre engineered to react with a single emotion. Terror. Lets take a step back. This wasnt an accident. In fact, its all precisely planned under the guidance of the Indiana State Police and doctor gordon geesebreck the guru of a new theory of escaping a submerged car alive. What im trying to do is create the stop, drop and roll for the 21st century. Seat belts, window, children, out. Reporter on average 300 americans die a year in submerged cars and im about to find out why. As we prepare to crash the car into the water, he walks me through the new method so we can all escape live. Have the seat off off so you can move and two, you have to have an exit so you have somewhere to move to, not the door. You need to plan there are three safety divers in the wear, one in the car equipped with air tanks should we get into real trouble. All right. Its go time. I round the cones and hit the ramp at 15 miles an hour. I unclick my seat belt. Roll down the window get my pretend baby and flop out of the window into the water. Sorry, kid. Reporter one key life saved by the bell ing tip. Do not touch your cell phone. If you touch it youre probably going to die. Where your car is floating when you can open the windows before the water gets up above the side windows. Reporter another tip, keep a sharp object or a window punching toll like this in your car. For decades experts taught us the only way to survive was letting the car fill with water before opening the door and switching out. Thats the method that gets you killed. Reporter dont wait for the water to come in the car. Unless you want that to be your final resting place. Reporter now its time to do it again. This simulating reallife problems. This jeep will shove our car into the pond. Suddenly that jeep is pushing us much faster this time. Well over 20 miles an hour. Going over the ramp and down the bank, all of us shocked at the force it hits the water. This time the water isnt trickling in, its flooding in and im about to make it worse. Try the door now. See if you can open it. Were all surprised when somehow i can. More water flooding in, the window is now stuck so i shatter it with that pumper but in a helterskelter to escape the car i forget something. Really important. The child . I shimmy out as the water engulfs the car. Watch ow quickly this car goes under. But the safety diver is still inside. Seconds later they pop out. If he hadnt been drained its possible they would have drowned. For Good Morning America, matt gutman, abc news, indianapolis. That was an incredible, incredible piece. Such helpful information. And those window punchers, theyre about 10. Every car should have one. You need to have that. Every second counts. Wow. Great job, matt. Coming up all sizes are not created equal.

First up in heat index trending big on the New York Times website and just in time for all those young adults heading off to college an oped asking if that degree is really preparing students for the real world . The author citing a recent poll from the online job site after college saying that 83 of graduating College Seniors said they didnt have a job lined up as of the spring and suggesting that colleges create a course in Career Training and make it a mandatory requirement for graduation. They said theres a diskept between the in the school about Career Options and letting them know how to go about to apply that degree to get a job. Great idea. To give kids a way to also job interviews, all the things you have to have. Skis you have to have. I like that idea but a debate whether college should be exploring yourself or tracking you into a why do you have to choose . Have one class freshman year exploring is great until you have bills to pay. And exploring whether or not what you think you want to do is really whats suited for you. Yeah. But its also i learned how to . Very practical. My new supply learned how to balance a checkbook in college. There was some wonderful life lessons did you have money to balance . Not much so that made it a little bit easier. I learned you guys are on fire. Welcome back, robin. Okay, next up in the heat index, this is a big one. Whats more important if you have that afternoon slump, coffee or a nap . Well, theres a new study that says that coffee nap may be the right way to do it of its not scientifically completely c conclusive but the idea you have your cup of coffee before take ago i 20minute nap. It takes 20 minutes for the caffeine to get into your system. A 20minute nap is the ideal length so if you go for 20 minutes the coffee and nap kick in. I might do some research this afternoon on that. That soups so counterterinu tiff. I love the idea and thaw wake up more alert and ready to go. Two of my favorite things. Coffee is waking you up. How that works, amy. Ill let you know tomorrow. All of you at home what mawas up up more, 52 a nap, 48 said coffee.

Im glad she feels like she can get back out there and i think Everybody Needs to just give her a break. So very important. All right. Next up, everybody. On the heat index, finding the perfect pair of jeans. We all know its tough. And eightinone brand isnt the same as a size eight in another brand. It does eight things . A size eight in one brand may not be the same in another brarndz. Becky worleworley, what did you. When i find those eightinone jeans youll be the first to get them. If you ever ordered online, you know how it is. You go et them in your side and when they arrive sometimes they fit. Sometimes they dont. Well why is that . Thats the question we set out to ansz. 12 inches is a foot. 16 oupszs is a pound. So all size jeans should have the same measurements, right . Hmm. We ordered seven pairs of boot cut jeans all different brands. I normally wear a size. Size 8. We asked two teach attorneys try them on. These are super high waisted. Oh, yeah, im not buying these. Of the seven brands each stever said only three fit them the way they expected. For clair it was gap. J. Crew and express. For very lario, grab, j. Crew and joes and American Eagle was the furthest from a good fight. I sit down and theres this. Reporter we asked 9 instructors at san franciscos academy of Art University school of fashion to measure all the pants. All these size 8s were exactly the same size. Not exactly. Not even close. Reporter they found the waist measurements rank from 31 inches all the way up to 35 inches. Probably wouldnt buy these. Reporter since some sat higher or lower. Too short in the back. Reporter this is somewhat an issue of style, the hip measurement were just as wide ranking. Not too much give. American eagle the biggest at under 40 inches and joes were the narrowest at 36. So four inches of difference in the hips. Thats quite a difference. Reporter the leg circumference from a sizable span, two inches difference between the joes and levis. Is this range abnormal . Is there a stand forward for sizing. As far as i can see there is no standard. Theres standards within a brand that conform form to what a customer wants. Reporter levis responded saying trial is a critical component of finding the perfect fit. Joes explained the measurement in leg opening is small story offer a sexier take on the traditional bootcut. Until we come up with virtual tryons only way to find a good fit is one leg at a time. American we are and i have to start this by saying American Eagle declined to comment for this story but our conversation is really why would they do this . Four inches of difference between these two size, its a measuring employ. Once you know what size you are in a specific brand you have one brand you love . I do. I like ag. And then whats your fave . I like gap and i also like joes jeans. Once youre locked in, youre locked in for life because you know what size you are. Its all marketing, girls. Really. That is fascinating.

This is something that youve thought about as a small child. Yeah, you and i have talked about how important family is especially when youre a small child growing up. I was the 12yearold with a dream and wrote to the local newscaster and waited for that letter to come back and finally did. He said, you know, theres always room for the right person, it could be you. And a week or two later im in the tv station carrying the tripods and the scripts and for years on my summer breaks they would let me come in and measure how much i had grown from summer to summer on the newsroom wall with a bright red face but now i look back and so grateful to everyone who gave me a shot. You are the right person for being in that chair. You know that and its not just about being in the chair. Youre going to get out. Thats what you are known for and youre going to continue to do that. I think the viewers at home who watch our reporting would say what happened to this guy if i wasnt still out in the field doing these stories and were just back from the Syrian Border because there are so many children who have left syria with their families from middle class family, their parents were theechers, lawyers and now theyre living in lebanon and the children are the ones who actually support the entire family. I want everyone to get their firsthand look at this. Lets do it. Reporter there is no school bus waiting, instead a truck of the children soon spilling over. And we board the truck with them.

Reporter the children, their tiny Hands Holding on many from middle class families in syria, now they are the ones who support their families. Youre going to work on the potatoes. Potatoes. Yes. You never stop to think about that. The children supporting their families and they hire only the children because the adults would have to pay more and learn in the field even the little boys make more than the little girls and say the boys are stronger. Oh, come on. We are shining a spotlight on this tonight and hopefully the world will remember there are children right now, you know, hundreds of thousands of them working, instead of going to school sfluls be all around the world and right here at home made in america.

Now to Phil Robertson, the man behind the duck dynasty clan is out with a new book unphiltered that covered a lot of business, the controversy over the antigay comments that got him suspended from duck dynasty. We sat down with him to talk about it. Reporter hes the outspoken patriarch of one of americas most famous families. Millions welcome him into their homes every week on duck dynasty. Phil robertson is also 68 years old and not about to change who he is or what he says. Wow. I mean look at our culture, dude. You can look in any direction and go woe. Reporter his comments have gotten him into trouble but robertson isnt backing down in his aptly named book unphiltered. People will read it and decide for themselves but people need to get in their head, dude. I dont hate anybody. Reporter he says the book is partially to clarify comments that got him into hot water. The comments were published in gq magazine earlier cowing homosexual behavior a sin. The only place i know of that i could have gone to answer that question would be a bible. The dictionary wouldnt have explained it and an encyclopedia would have explained whether it was a sin or not so i went to the only source i had to answer this question. Reporter would you consider yourself a homophobe . Im as much of a homophobe as jesus was. People who participate in homosexual behavior need to know i love them. Reporter long before the beard he was a cleancut College Quarterback who gave up football when it interfered with duck hunting season. He says he was an alcoholic, a wom womanizer, until he found jesus at the age of 28. That conversion changed his life strengthened his marriage to miss kay and turned his hobby of making duck calls into a multimillion dollar business. Im a highly educated man, maybe a sharker to some, i have a masters degree. Im no dumbo. Reporter his comments about growing up in precivil rights arkansas rubbed some the wrong way and told gq i never with my eyes saw the mistreatment of any black person not once. You say that but they couldnt go to the same school. They couldnt use the same water fountain. There is one race, one race on this planet. Its called the human race. Were all the same. To me there is absolutely nothing that as color to do with it. Reporter theres a lot more in the book much of it religion. A lot said its the gospel according to you. Well, its the gospel according to the scriptures. I didnt dream it up. Reporter robertson also dedicates a chapter to money. I guess having money in the bank gives you a little piece of mind but it really hasnt changed our lifestyle much. Another chapter tackles what robertson calls americas addiction to social media. I dont have a cell phone. I never turned on a computer in my life. So whatever america is saying or not saying about me true or untrue, what they need to understand is im not hearing it. Reporter like we said, dont expect Phil Robertson to change. For Good Morning America, ryan owens, abc news, west monroe, louisiana. Unphiltered available now. Coming up inside the frozen phenomenon. How the song let it go let it go disneys megahit frozen may not have become the top grossing film without let it go quote. The triple platinum hit inspired tributes and our singlong. But even before that let it go changed the fate of frozen. Let it go reporter the song has become a global phenomenon and inspired a generation of tiny budding singers. Let it go let it go reporter to unleash their inner elsa. I dont care what reporter but elsa didnt start out as the misunderstood character . They made her blue and spiky hair and just your quintessential evil queen. She had a coat made out of living weasels. All the weasels would crawl up her and make this living fur coat. Reporter once upon a time elsa was the villain until fate stepped in and the form of songwriters. We were still writing a villain song. And we started getting into the head space of what youd feel like if you were that isolated. Limit her contact with people and keep her powers hidden from everyone. We knew in this moment shed go through a transformation from repressed to letting her powers out and sort of trying to get away from society and be who she really was. And once we started kind of writing from that from the reality of that, we found that we had something to say. So we got this hook. Kristin got the hook let it go. Because she had to let go of everything she knew and it was this moment of exhilaration when she could finally let go of all she had been holding inside. Couldnt keep it in heaven snows ive tried and the song wrote itself very quickly. It was a day and a half.
