giordano to re-create the maryland woman s disappearance six weeks ago. will it bring them one step closer to solving this case? we re live in aruba, tuesday, september 20th, 2011. captions paid for by nbc-universal television welcome to today on this tuesday morning. i m ann curry. and i m lester holt. matt lauer is on assignment. the struggling economy the biggest issue facing the country right now. it s pretty clear this will be the big issue in the next presidential election. needless to say the obama administration not happy with ron suskind s new book. you got that right. he suggests the president suffers from a lack of leadership when it comes to the economic crisis. in fact, suskind quotes one of the president s top advisers as saying, quote, we re really home alone. there s no adult in charge. we ll get the latest from the white house and talk with the pulitzer prize-winning author ron suskind this morning. also what she told the courtroom could be a blow to the defense s case. we ll get details coming up in a live report. also this morning, she s best known for her wholesome role as carol brady on the brady bunch. but florence henderson lives a much different life. affairs, even a one-night stand with a late former mayor of new york, john lindsey. i think we all miss that brady bunch episode. we ll talk about it when she joins us a little bit later. we ll not miss it this morning. this morning, we ll get right to details of that, maybe more than we want to know. we begin with the controversial new book about president obama and the questions over its accuracy. chuck todd joins us, nbc s chief white house correspondent. you ve got details, chuck. good morning. i think the president is waking up in new york city here this morning and is enjoying the brief respite he ll get to focus on international issues because between the book and the new debt plan he released is being met now by republicans with a thud. middle east peace may look more attainable to president obama as he heads to the u.n. than selling republicans on his plans for the economy. i m ready to sign a bill. i ve got the pens all ready. reporter: the president laid out a $3 trillion deficit reduction package including $1.5 trillion of new taxes on wealthier americans. i will not support any plan that puts all the burden for closing our deficit on ordinary americans. this is not class warfare. it s math. reporter: but speaker of the house john boehner wasn t buying it. i don t believe that class warfare is leadership, and you know, we can get into this tax the rich, tax the rich, but that is not the basis for america and it s not going to get our economy going again and it s not going to put people back to work. reporter: senate republican leader mitch mcconnell issued a terse statement saying the president s plan is not a recipe for economic or job growth or meaningful deficit reduction. all of this comes as a new book by ron suskind paints an unflattering picture of the president s leadership on the economy and his team of economic advisers. suskind quotes peter orszag as saying his former colleague larry summers complained about president obama s lack of leadership telling orszag, you know, peter, we re really home alone. there s no adult in charge. clinton would never have made these mistakes. suskind quotes christina romer as saying summers deliberately blocked her from a meeting. romer telling suskind, i felt like a piece of meet. another said this place would be in court for a hostile workplace because it actually fit all of the classic legal requirements for a genuinely hostile workplace to women. but summers, romer and dunn all contest the book s reporting saying their words were taken out of context or never even spoken. and treasury secretary timny geithner described in the book as dragging his feet on some presidential orders also was asked about the report. the reports i ve read about this book bear no resemblance to the reality we live together. no resemblance. reporter: the white house is pushing back furiously at author suskind even suggesting he lifted part of the book directly from the internet. one passage seems to be lifted almost entirely from wikipedia in the book. i think based on that, i would caution anyone to assume that if you can t get those things right that you suddenly get the broader analysis right. that analysis is wrong. so you can judge for yourself on that charge from the white house. here is the comparison that they are making. it was a description of fannie mae in confidence it read in 1968 it officially became a publicly held corporation to remove its debt and related activities from the federal balance sheet. the wikipedia entry says in 1968 it converted to a publicly held corporation to remove its activity and debt from the federal budget. ann there you go. chuck, thanks. ron suskind joins us to talk about his book, confidence men: wall street, washington and the education of a president. good morning. let s begin right there. did you or did you not lift that passage from wikipedia? of course not. of course not. how do you account for it being so similar. if you are going to talk about fannie mae in 1968 you use a combination of a number of words. the white house should be doing something better on wiki searches on a 500-page book. after a week, that s all they ve come up with. they ve come up with more. let s get to them one by one. we have some time not a lot of time. you write that the president tried to navigate the economic crisis as he was trying to do this, you write that his authority was systematically undermined or hedged by his seasoned advisers. for example you report that the treasury secretary timothy geithner ignored the president s order to create a plan to do something about citigroup. so what i m wondering is, just yesterday, geithner said that these reports in your book, quote, bear no resemblance to the reality. did geithner ignore the president or didn t he? geithner clearly slow walked the president, meaning that he did not move as the president hoped he would, some would say he ignored the president. this is not just reflected in tim geithner s conversation with me. he responded to that. it s all in the book the response but also memos, internal memos in the white house from pete rouse, they talk about how treasury slow walked the president. they didn t like what the president was decided. they simply ignored it. they buried it bureaucratically and the president responds to that in our interview. he doesn t disagree with it. he said these were hard. these were difficult decisions. yes, the bureaucracy didn t do what i wanted them to do. the fact is, ann, almost everything in the book is responded to in the book toward the end. everybody was asked about these comments. let s talk more about the comments. but the white house communications director told us these comments i just talked about with timothy geithner are absolutely 100% not true. so they are saying they re not true. he is disagreeing with tim geithner s rendering in confidence men. we talked about 35 minutes through citi. everyone was quoted and sourced on the citibank issue. i think the real issue is whether the white house will respond to whether the president is still getting gamed by his advisers or not. the evidence is that he s not and in our interview, me and the president, he said, look, i ve grown into this office. it took awhile. he was a new president with very little experience. he came in in a crisis, but i think the whole point of the book is the evolution of barack obama to now. and the president is quite forceful, in a way saying, i m the president home hoped i would be and that s part of what the book says. the book also quotes this comment by pete orszag. we just bhrd it in chuck todd s report saying that larry summers, the former director of the national economic council often relitigated the president s decisions. at one point said we re home alone. there s no adult in charge. clinton would never have made these mistakes in response to your portrayal in your book, larry summers said hearsay attributed to me is a combination of fiction, distortion and woerds taken out of context. i ve always believed the president has led this country with determined, steadied and practical advice in an in the economic area. did summers believe the president was in over his head or didn t he? it seems that he did. and it seems from the comments of orszag and others, certainly the start in the first year in 2009 into early 2010, these sorts of things were part of the prevailing conversation in the white house. when i asked larry summers he was one of the sources for the book. i asked him about that quote. he offers a comment in confidence men which is more seasoned and less political than that. he says we were overwhelmed. we had five times as many problems. we didn t have five times as many people. your saying he acknowledged these comments to pete orszag? he said to me after we talked. what did you say? what did you mean? he said i will say this. we had too many things going on and we didn t have enough people. but that s not what you are saying here. in this quote he s questioning if, in fact, he said this, he s questioning whether the president was in over his head. did he step back from that or say that s exactly what he was feeling at the time? in the book, he first said, i never said it. and then i said, look. a lot of people heard you say it. he said okay. here s what i meant. when i when i said such a thing, this is what i meant. i think it s important to know there was enormous cooperation from the white house and they knew virtually everything in this book before it came out and had a chance to respond. they said they cooperated with you because they were concerned about the direction you were taking and wanted to make sure you got it right. let s talk about this one issue. i want to make sure we get to it. this issue that is perhaps as sensitive as all the things we ve said before. the idea the white house was a boys club. in one story you quote christina romer, the former chairman of the council of economic advisers saying i felt like a piece of meat when she was excluded from the meeting. also you quote anita dunn who quoting her calling the white house a genuinely hostile workplace to women. now both of these women have subsequently denied saying making these comments. how do you respond to that? everyone is under a great deal of pressure. it s a political season. the fact of the matter is all of them said everything, we have extensive notes and tapes for this book. they were told what would be said next to them. what they said in the book. with anita, the washington post this morning confirms the quote. i had to do something i ve never done before but i said it s a special occasion. i let the washington post listen to the tape. they were like, there it is. clear as a bell. let me get to what s on tape. i understand what s on tape is the fact that she said if it weren t for the president this place would be in court for a hostile workplace. that s not quite the same as saying it s a hostile work environment. she said if it wasn t for the president, it would be a hostile work environment. did you take liberties with that quote? absolutely not. in fact, what i did, as i did with many subjects, i called anita back at the end. here is what s going next to your name in the book. she said can we say looking back rather than in present tense? we talked about that and ultimately the quote is broken down in terms of the core of the quote that she agreed with, and interestingly the comments about the president is throughout the book. it s shown that people felt good about the president. part of why the white house actually pushed me to write about this women s issue in the workplace is they felt the president solved this issue and in large measure the book says the president stepped up here. a key core issue of the book is the president s growth as a boss, as a manager. he had very little experience. he sat all of a sudden atop the most complex managerial organism on the planet. that s the evolution. he learned how to be the president, the boss. this is a stumbling block along the way. i ve got to ask you one final question. we did some looking through your book. you do call in your book cnbc erin burnett you call her erin burkett. you said the unemployment rate was 8.2%. in fact it was 9.5%. you say the dow dropped 378 february 10th. it dropped 38 it points on that date. so do you agree, jay carney makes this point. if you cannot get these details right, then the broader analysis that you subscribe to, that you put forth in this book has got to be judged in accordance with that? has got to be questioned? there are inaccuracies in your book. this is a 500-page book. the fact is that everything in this book is solid as a brick, and we have gone through every little thing they ve found. much of it was changed early. the book was pushed through with great effort, and the fact is this book, like all the books i ve written is densely sourced, and the analysis is picture perfect. everyone in the white house was confronted with this early. they responded in the book. and this is really a portrait, a first portrait of this white house and this president. when this happens, when the curtain is pulled back, they often respond vigorously. they are. and i think that s testimony to the fact that this is really who they are. it s not the last we re going to hear about it, ron suskind. the sbook called the confidence men. here s lester. the death toll in that crash at an air show and air race in reno, nevada, climbed to at least ten. this as ntsb investigators try to piece together what caused the disaster. nbc s george lewis is in reno and has the latest. good morning. reporter: good morning, lester. it turns out that plane, the galloping ghost, had been heavily modified, its wings clipped and engine suped up for speed. now the question for investigators, did those modifications have anything to do with the cause of the crash? new video has emerged shot by the wilson family from newberg, oregon, capturing the crash at the point of impact. oh, my god! we re looking right up at the fuselage, meaning i m looking at the prop and right up the fuselage. it s coming directly for us. reporter: the man who shot this other video, licensed by nbc news, said it appeared to him that the pilot was trying to avoid the crowd. to be honest, it s really hard for me to talk about because there was about one to one and a half seconds that he was pointed right at us. i start to flinch, and then he pulls up miraculously from my family. he pulls up and misses the bleachers. reporter: the pilot, 74-year-old jimmy leeward, had shortened the plane s wing span to boost performance on the racing circuit. he talked about it in this video. i know the speed. i know it will do the speed. the systems aren t proven yet. we think they re going to be okay. reporter: but were they okay? this picture of the plane appears to show the cockpit empty. a veteran crash investigator tells nbc news there s lots of speculation about whether heavy g forces caused the pilot to black out or caused his seat to collapse. in the frantic aftermath of the crash, volunteers rushed in to help. some fueled up an old huey helicopter on display and flew victims to the hospital. one of the patients they transported, ed larson. the thing crashes right behind me, and all i remember was trying to run, is i see stuff coming, and then that s the last thing i remember. reporter: he had metal fragments in his head, back and legs, and he s very grateful to those volunteers. all i saw was a real coordinated effort. reporter: as he and the other injured victims continue to recover, the investigation into the causes of the crash continues. that investigation is expected to take months to complete. the ntsb team has returned to washington with some of the key components from the aircraft near reno. lester? now we get the rest of the morning s news stories from natalie lewis. good morning, everyone. at one minute past midnight this morning, the military ban on openly gay service members ended with the official repeal of the don t ask, don t tell policy. more than 13,000 service members lost their jobs because of their sexual orientation since the law went into effect back in 1993. at the stroke of midnight a navy lieutenant celebrated the end of the ban by marrying his long-time same-sex partner in vermont in his uniform. another delay for the two american hikers jailed as spies in iran. their lawyer was sent away empty handed from court this morning after seeking a second judge s signature on a $1 mule bail for freedom deal. that judge was expected to return from vacation today, but did not show up in court this morning. a condition conman who lost his wife and daughter in a deadly invasion takes the stand today for the trial for the accused mastermind. we have more. peter, good morning. reporter: natalie, good morning to you. from the start of this case the defense attorney said what you hear in the

will relive his cool personal nightmare again the brutal murders of his wife jennifer and daughters hayley and michaela. we just want justice to be served. that s all. reporter: now standing trial, the second suspect. in court monday his defense lawyers admitted their client did plan to break into the pettitte home and steal, but insisted he did not have a weapon and never intended to kel anyone. instead they blame steven hayes, accused of torturing and killing the family. in the first trial the defense said komisarjevsky was the mastermind, and while in jail kept a chilling diary of his role in the murders. writing years of pent up aggression built in was waiting to be released like a ticking time aboving bomb. the yurnl in this case is going to be a very key piece of evidence. it is going toway weigh heavily on the minds of those jurors. his team is trying to launch a defense from sitting in the courtroom. that motion denied. dr. pettit now faces the beginning of another long and painful trial. hard having to go through all this starting all over again? i would prefer not to. reporter: on monday the defense attorney directed another shot at william pettit and his loved once in the courtroom, referring to them as the pettit posse. natalie, saying the fact that they were wearing pins endangered the defense s right to a fair trial. the judge said the family can wear those pins. peter alexander in new haven, connecticut. thank you. take a look at this time hfts lapsed video from the international space station as it rotates around the southern lights. the

did gary giordano s story check out or not? they don t have the answers yet. we ll check in a little later today and we ll let you know. important to note here, lester, gary giordano remeans in kia prison in abruaruba. that extension is in place and he ll be here quite a while longer and he has not been charged with anything yet. fascinating exercise. jeff rossen thank you very much. 7:34 now, here s ann. the murder trial of a well-known developer in florida accused of killing his own wife is entering its fourth day and this after the defendant s ex-girlfriend testified on monday. nbc s mark potter is outside the courthouse this morning with the latest on this story. hey, mark, good morning. reporter: good morning to you, ann. the jury in this trial here has been hearing from the prosecution which is trying to prove that bob ward willfully shot and killed his wife, and that it was no accident, as he claims. in court 63-year-old developer bob ward lowered his head as a medical examiner described the death of his wife, diane. and what was the cause of death? gunshot wound to the head. were you able to determine the manner of death in. yes. and what was that? homicide. reporter: prosecutors say ward shot and killed his wife during an argument two years ago at their mansion near orlando. it was bob ward that shot her almost dead between the eyes. reporter: the defense claims the shooting was an accident, that the handgun went off as ward tried to rest tell from his wife, who, while drunk and depressed, tried to kill herself. you will see that no crime has been committed by bob ward here. reporter: prosecutors played the tape of bob ward s call to 911 after the shooting. i just shot my wife. you just shot your wife? i shot my wife, yes. is she breathing? no, she s dead. is that for sure? i think so, yes. okay, sir, where is the weapon? it s in the nightstand next to the bed in the master bedroom, and i ll be glad to meet the officers at the front door. reporter: in claiming the shooting was a murder, prosecutors suggest the motive was financial, that ward was distressed over facing bankruptcy. on the witness stand an old girlfriend said ward complained to her two years ago about his wife. he said that his wife spent too much money and that there was a time that he was supposed to meet her at the orlando international airport and she was late because she was having a manicure and a pedicure and he was livid. reporter: ward s oldest daughter mallory said her parents got along well but sometimes drank and did have financial trouble. during the summer month 2009 did the family financial circumstances appear to change? i knew that things weren t as good as they had been. were you aware of the fact your father s business was in bankruptcy? i was. reporter: mallory ward s somber appearance on the witness stand was in stark contrast to her behavior two years ago after her father was jailed on the murder charge. both were recorded joking and making faces at each other, prosecutors say they will not be showing those tapes to the jury. now the prosecution continues this case today as for the defense, there s a lot of speculation here at the courthouse about weather bob ward himself will take the witness stand to testify before the jury but so far, no official word from his lawyers. ann?

i didn t believe anything, i ve never believed anything the defense had told me. reporter: the defense claimed casey first told the story of caylee s abduction because she had been telling lies for years. why?

in her case someone hacked her e-mail account. a lot of people post their e-mail addresses publicly on their facebook so what he would do is go into the e-mail, click on forgot password. reporter: and strike up a facebook chat with the person pretending to be a friend and casually ask the answer to their e-mail security question, a few key strokes later, another case of identity theft, with a devious sexual twist, 26-year-old timothy norgene, a man from her hometown she s never met is charged with stealing her identity, stealing pictures of her most intimate moments and posting them online with her name for everyone to see. prosecutors claim others have come forward, authorities found hundreds of e-mail addresses on his computer. authorities ask what is the motive? we re seeing hundreds a day. reporter: pete orr say the crimes can inflict permanent damage. these are young girls that forever and ever it could be out there. that s what makes it so egregious. reporter: so egregious alicia says it strained her relationship with her mother and has her worried about her future career prospects. still she says she did nothing wrong by taking or e-mailing the photos, her only regret was not deleting them afterwards. now she wants others to learn from her mistake. people really need to be careful and i just want people to know what can happen when you re not. reporter: private pain, exposed to all. timothy norgene has a pretrial hearing scheduled for november. his attorney did not respond to interview requests. as for motive, prosecutors do not know. we ll switch gears and talk live to paula abdul about her reality reunion with simon cowell. and jane lynch, all coming up after your local news and weather. i got this citi thank yd and started earning loads of points. you got a weather balloon with points?

they ve been asking you for years to write an autobiography. i always know when i read an autobiography if that person has not been truthful or tried to make themselves look very pure and perfect and so i thought if i m going to do this, i m going to tell the progression of my life, and how i did what i did, warts and all, mistakes and all, choices i made, and let people know that i have a little more dimension than carol brady. and it has been over the course of, i asked permission if i could say this, over the course of 77 years. yes, already just looking at you that s setting the bar, number one, number two you talk about being the youngest of ten kids, being born in a very, very poor family. yes. talk about your father being an alcoholic and sometimes he behaved very inappropriately to you. he did. you know, when he was under the influence, my father was a wonderful man, but when he was drinking, he wasn t such a wonderful man, and you know, in those days i don t even think aa existed, but i always felt a lot of compassion for my father, and a lot of confusion because of that, and because of him. add to that there was a priest who was very inappropriate as well to the girls who were in the parish. yes. and add to that you talk about your unhappiness in your own marriage, you had four kids, you were just talking about, one of them now a grandchild now, going to college, but you were unhappy enough to have affairs, you write about, in your marriage. le with, you know, i think that people don t stray outside the marriage unless there is a problem, or unless they are unhappy, and i married very, very young. i was totally inexperienced. i was a virgin. i never really had a teenage life, and i wasn t happy, and when the pill came in and i was given permission to take the pill, i think i just thought, wow, this is something. i think a lot of women did. but for me, it was, i think it was a growing up period, and i made some poor choices during that time. and this sort of dovetails nicely to this thing you wrote about in your book. nicely? i know exactly where you re going, ann. you wrote about in your book, network morning show the host says florence, i enjoyed your book, great life and wonderful insilgts you share, blah, blah, blah, but i can t stop thinking about your one night stand with late night former new york mayor john lindsay. that s your cue and what you just said. i had worked for john lindsay, very hard, to get him elected, had a lot of respect for him and we were friends. i was in l.a. myself filming the brady bunch and he was out there for some event, i can t remember what it was. anyway, we were friends and he said come back to the hotel and have a drink, and i did, and one thing led to another, he was very convincing, and so that led to the one night stand, which led to something, some little critters that i never knew existed. oh, dear. yes, it s true. oh, dear, and scared me absolutely to death, so i believe in karma in life. i just didn t know it would be so instant, you know? yeah. but this is the thing in talking about all of this stuff, you are really kind of in some ways saying to anyone reading your book that all of this greatness, the thing that we love you about, love so much about you, there was a face in front of the tv, you know, the face on television. yes. but life is not a stage, you re saying. no. you shouldn t think that your life has to be this perfect thing. well, no, no one s life is that perfect and my hope in writing the book because i know there are a lot of people out there who had the same hardships growing up, went through all of these difficult things who made bad choices but my goal was to hopefully inspire those people to know you don t have to be a victim of your environment, your childho childhood. you have the ability to change your life, if you re not happy. it takes courage to be happy. it takes courage to make the changes in your life that would allow to you experience more joy and be more fulfilled. if i ve done that for one person, then it s worth you asking me those questions. exactly right. i think you have done that for more than one person, florence. i hope so. on top of that, this life that you, and overcoming all your odds has led you to some really fantastic experiences. what would you say has been one of the highlights for you? i know you were on the johnny carson show at one point. what were some of the highlights for you in your career as you look back? well, ann, really there have been so many, seeing tony bennett, i think we were on the dean martin show together. we did so many things, i met so many great talents who taught me so much. i loved this business. i love that i m still in it, and that s my goal, and the thing i think that has given me the most satisfaction that i ve been in this business for almost 60 years, very tough business, but i ve been able to manage to retain my sense of humanity. i love people. i still love what i do, and i have no cynicism about life. um-hum, and such complete honesty. yes. i don t know, i feel sort of like i don t know if i should or not but it s sort of out there so i want to know what you want to say about it, there have been some, there has been some reporting about barry williams who played greg, what do you want to say or not about that? about me and barry williams? um-hum. that was i said it so many times that it s totally, totally innocent. i think he s going to be waiting for me today after the show, we re great friends. you know, now that i see barry, i think he s old enough for me to date now, so actually have a legitimate date, but it was very innocent. he just always had a crush on me and so i helped him through that crush and no, i was not a cougar. well, you are beautiful enough to be one, even today. thank you so much for being so honest. thanks, ann. and thank you so much for your book. i think people are going to really enjoy it. we love you here, ann. i love you, too, ann, i love everybody at the today show and all of you people out there. that s what we feel. thank you so much. florence henderson, the book is called life is not a stage. coming up next, bobby flay s recipes for a tasty supper, rib roast and soup. hang around, florence. come on, let s have some! announcer: the toyota concert series on today brought to you by toyota. i go from rags to riches the legendary tony ben set one of the most successful and popular singers ever, and now, get this, at age 85 years young, he s out with a brand new album called duets ii and we re pleased to have mr. bennett joining us along with another grammy winner, latin music s alessandro sans. great to have you. good morning, thank you very much. after six decades in this profession you are still so passionate about music. what is the reason for all of this passion?

absolutely not. suskind says dunn and others in the obama administration were informed before the book went to print. officials say human remains found in a california canyon saturday are those of nursing student michelle lei who disappeared in may. a former high school friend suspected in lei s murder will be back in court next week. dolores hope the widow of entertainer bob hope died monday at her home in los angeles. a former nightclub singer she often joined her husband to perform for u.s. troops during their 69 years of marriage. hope was 102 years old. a new study has found that whooping cough vaccine loses effectiveness in as little as three years. under government health recommendations, children sometimes go as long as eight years between booster shots. and a different kind of breaking news for an anchorwoman in south dakota. jennifer hudstpeth thought she was introducing a story about a surprise marriage proposal in a nearby town. the minnesota man nate johnson joins us to continue his story of love. jennifer oh! will you marry me?

happy news for them. al is out here somewhere, he s upstairs. he went inside because it was raining. al give us a memo. is it that hard to figure out really? i mean come on. let s show you what s going on as far as your weather is daerto ar wey torey we are look frontal system, you can see it clear as day stretching from new england all the way down to the gulf bringing showers, a few thunderstorms especially down through the southeast, a secondary front coming through the northern plains, that s going to be bringing some rain there, beautiful weather out west, 76 seattle, 105 in phoenix, 79 l.a. but the showers will continue through the southeast, mid-atlantic states, all the way here into the northeast, going to hang aroun good morning to you. the sun is out in full force over the city of san francisco. our temperatures are sky rocketing across the bay area. we are at 79 degrees already in san jose. you re going to round out the day at about 80 in san francisco, 89 in redwood city and 80 in santa cruz. we are expecting that fog to roll back in between about 2:00 and 4:00. that should keep temperatures down a little bit by the coast later on today. inland, yeah, a few degrees warmer even from yesterday s highs. sending out on s.o.s. time for joy s diet s.o.s. jgs today joy is answering questions about artificial sweeteners and school lunches. our first question comes from kim, in smyrna, georgia and joins us live via skype. oh, they are so cute! that s the best! thank you, good morning. yeah, i have a question both of my girls are really picky eater, and they attend a school that will not allow peanuts and they won t heat up any items and i want a healthy yet yummy lunch. do you have any suggestions for items i can put in their lunch box that are healthy, fresh and low in sodium in. i ve got a ton of options for you and i love this is a whole family affair. first when it comes to packing a healthy lunch box, you want to include three things, a protein item, a produce item and a fun snack or a treat and most people have problems with the protein piece so that s what i m going to focus on. first when it comes to hot things you want to invest in a real high quality thermos for you. you ll need two of them, and you can fill it with a hearty soup, lentil, black bean, chicken noodle, minestrone or leftover chili or taco meat, with a bag of tortilla chips or pasta with marinara sauce and cheese is going to work. from the cold standpoint you can make sushi rollup sandwiches, a whole grain roll with turkey and cheese, tightly roll it up, cut it into sushi or humus with dippers like whole grain crackers, yogurt with a crunchy cereal as well. there s a lot of options, get your girls involved and you re going to have a good lunch. you guys like those ideas? yes. thank you very much. thank you, kim. bye-bye. involve them for sure. yes, the chili could be risky after lunch. anyway now let s go to shelby in red lion, pennsylvania, she s on the phone. good morning, shelby, what s your question? caller: good morning, joy. my question is about stevia, there has been some negativity surrounding the use of artificial sweeteners so what do you think of all-natural stevia? this is a tricky question to answer. and really it s a personal choice. if you re looking for a more natural way to sweeten your foods without adding calories then stevia is definitely your best bet because the artificial sweeteners like equal and splenda are synthetically created. stevia is a naturally occurring substance from a south american plant. the mainstream packets that we buy in the store or sometimes we find in the food is not 100% pure stevia. the companies are isolating one compound and mix it with sugar alcohol so it s somewhat processed, and i tell you this because really the bottom line is, pick the sweetener that you like the taste of the best, but really try to minimize all of them. because the body still thinks it s sugar. exactly and some preliminary studies show it may intensify our cravings or mess with metabolic pathways so you want to whenever you can minimize all of the sugar substitutes. the last one, e-mail, sam from plantsville, honey or raisins in my oatmeal? raisins because they deliver a shot of sweetness plus fiber and nutrition. honey delivers the sweetness without any significant nutrition. raisins win. thanks, joy. an inside look at elizabeth taylor s closet, some of her most spectacular pieces before they hit the auction block. up next, jill s steals and deals, exclusive hot for imsor you, our today show viewers. accept no substitutes. ecent trip to france we discovered the inspiration for a totally new yogurt. activia selects french yogurt. so silky and smooth with lots of juicy fruit. it was a grueling trip! try new activia selects french yogurt. it s a new totino s pizza stuffer.

[ deep breath ] thank you! that s the cold truth! but your cloud of depression is still with you. maybe it s time to ask your doctor about adding seroquel xr to your antidepressant to treat your depression. seroquel xr is a once-daily, extended-release tablet, which means medication is released around the clock. for many, seroquel xr, when added to an antidepressant, was proven more effective than an antidepressant alone at helping people feel less depressed. call your doctor if you have unusual changes in mood, behavior, or thoughts of suicide. antidepressants can increase these in children, teens, and young adults. elderly dementia patients taking seroquel xr have an increased risk of death. call your doctor if you have fever, stiff muscles, and confusion, as these may be signs of a life-threatening reaction or if you have uncontrollable muscle movements, as these could become permanent. high blood sugar has been reported with seroquel xr and medicines like it and in extreme cases can lead to coma or death. your doctor should check for cataracts. other risks include increased cholesterol and weight gain as well as seizures, dizziness on standing, drowsiness, impaired judgment, trouble swallowing, and decreases in white blood cells, which can be fatal. use caution before driving or operating machinery. isn t it time to put more distance between you and your depression? talk to your doctor about seroquel xr. if you can t afford your medication, astrazeneca may be able to help. with two children and no way to support them. i put myself through nursing school, and then i decided to go get a doctorate degree. university of phoenix gave me the knowledge to make a difference in people s lives. my name is dr. kimberly horton. i manage a network of over a thousand nurses, and i am a phoenix.

i really felt that, you know, the country exploded over this issue, and the whole argument stereotyped gay people but it also stereotyped people in the military, too, as bigots, as you know, behind the times, and i felt that it was just deeper and richer than that but none of us could know about it because nobody was allowed to talk about it, so i realized as an actor that i could be a voice for people who weren t allowed to speak for themselves and i went around the country interviewing people to find stories to show a community that was hidden from all of us, but also to show people that break down stereotypes. how did you get them to talk? because they re told, don t ask, don t tell, and right. for those buying into that, how did you get them to come forward and speak? it was very, very dangerous for them. you know, if people knew that they were talking to me, they could have been kicked out, they could lose their benefits and everything, but i think what happens is, when you push people down and push people down, it becomes like a volcano, and human nature, you need to talk. you need an outlet. you need to tell your story, and i was able to, i don t know, they trusted me. you know, what happened was, i have a lot of friends in new york, from all over the country. right. and they know somebody who went to high school with who turns out to be gay and they were dating somebody at the military base say back in iowa. so word of mouth spread. it had to be secret and people in the military were paranoid i was being followed. what was surprising you conducting the interviews? what did you learn out of this? i think what was mostly surprising is how paranoid people were. i met somebody at a cafe i was sitting along the window and he said what are you doing here? i can t be seen talking here so we had to go to the back. women told me someone they knew in the military had threatened to take her child away if she didn t turn other people in. oh, my. wow. a lot of horror stories. a lot of horror stories. and we should mention the movie opens today but more than 13,000 service members of course have lost their jobs as a result of don t ask, don t tell. what do you think now happens in this new era, where this ban has been lifted? i think in a way nothing is going to happen, because the straight soldiers have been serving with gay soldiers forever and so it s not going to be a big thing, but for not a big seat change in. but for individuals, they won t have to lock their computer when they leave their desk. they won t have to worry about is somebody going to find this letter to the boyfriend or the girlfriend that reveals something about them. and not lose their jobs because so many did. and their benefits. marc wolf, thanks so much for bringing this to light. you can catch don t ask, don t tell opens on snag films.com. coming up, bobby play. but first, this is today on i m a curious seeker. i am a chemistry aficionado. diphenhydramine. magnesium hydroxide. atheletes foot. yes. i m a people pleaser. if elected, i promise flu shots for all. i am a walking medical dictionary. congratulations virginia. inflamed uvula. i m virginia. i m a target pharmacist and i m here to answer your questions. this morning on today s kitchen, what s for dinner?
