Chairman of the kremlin cup for the past 18 years, a member of the ioc and even a former coach to boris yeltsin. Now hes under fire for something he said on russian tv about the way serena and Venus Williams look. He made the the comments during a russian talk show. The nowsuspended president of the tenn1tennis p eed raising, the the host asked her how she felt playing against serena and veenius williams. He interrupted calling them the williams brothers, and adding that its, quote, scary when you look at them. If someone with his power, its really unacceptable on make such insensitive, bullying remarks. On sunday Serena Williams addressed the insult headon during a News Conference at the World Tennis Association tournament in singapore. I thought his comments were very insensitive. I thought they were extremely sexist as well as racist at the same time. Russian tennis great Maria Sharapova also came to the williams sisters defense spoo he was very inappropriate especially in his position and all of the responsibilities that he has is just really irresponsible. Terpashev who was also a member of the International Olympic committee was suspended for one year and fined 25,000 by the wta. He issued a letter of apology released by the the Russian Tennis Federation saying his intended joke was inappropriate in any context and that the williams sisters are among the greatest players ever to compete in our sport.

You saw that backup here. They scrolled before the wide shot and theyre zooming back in for the status. The recovery has to recover 680, looks like at the off ramp area. On the map you see how jammed it is. South of danville is where the backup is. They will start to head back down. Out of Pleasant Hill and concord.

South africas department of Correctional Services is denying a report that a cell has been prepared for oscar pistorius. He was found guilty in the culpable homicide of his girlfriend, reeva steenkamp. A judge is expected to announce his sentence tomorrow.

Good morning to you, matt. Yes, its 38 days since frein allegedly shot and killed one state trooper and wounded another. The possible break over the weekend, a possible sighting that police have described as very credible. A woman out for a walk in the woods who thinks she came within 20 feet of frein. But today one of americas most wanted is still on the run. School is open today at pocono Mountain High after a lost weekend, no soccer or Outdoor Activities because the manhunt for eric frein was suddenly right in the schools backyard. Its impacting the community. Put a hold on our lives. Reporter freins former high school. Police closed in after she told police she saw a man resembling frein carrying a gun. This is what Police Believe frein right look like. The suspects face was covered with mud so a positive identification could not be made. Reporter police have called this a dangerous and potentially deadly game of cat and mouse with a survivalist, marksman and avid war reenactor. Cold blooded and chilling, police call it, with frein writing how he ambushed the troopers and escaped. Im not surprised he hasnt been found. He has had three years to prepare this. This guy knew where he was going and knew where he was going to hide. Reporter with no end in sight, these picturesque communities remain on edge as costs add up. Many say tourists are staying away, hunting season in some areas on hold. Police operation reportedly is costing more than 1 million a week. When you have someone that is capable of just shooting someone coming from work and taking their life is concerning, i think, to everyone. Reporter police have emphasized that frein has only attacked police and not civilians and his anger, for whatever reason, seems directed at Law Enforcement only. Schools in this area are open with added security. Hoda, matt . Ron allen, thank you very much. Its going to start to get very, very cold.

Drivers putting your children at risk by failing to stop for school buses. Today National Investigative correspondent jeff rossen here with part one of our series, School Danger zone. Good morning to you. Good morning, matt. 23 million children are out right now waiting for the school bus. When it comes, the flashing red lights go on. As a driver, you know to stop. Kids are crossing right there. But so many people arent paying attention and blow right by. Or, worse yet, theyre late for work and do it on purpose. Already this school year, students have been hit and killed at the bus stop. But now a new push to catch violators in the act. This morning, were on patrol with police. And a warning here, some of the video is disturbing. Keep an eye on this boy getting off the school bus. He crosses the street. That car nearly hits him, never even slowing down. This young boy isnt as lucky. That car slamming into him at full speed as he walked off the bus. And take a look. The stop sign is clearly out. So hard to watch, but amazingly, he walks away unharmed. According to the bus industry association, it happens over 70,000 times a day, vehicles passing stopped buses. Heartpounding surveillance videos catching car after car, blowing by school buses during stops. Those flashing red lights on, stop signs out. The offenders ignoring it. Somebody just hit a kid trying to get on the school bus. Reporter 11yearold Michael Burgess was knocked to the ground just weeks ago. All i remember was seeing a car and i was so scared. I just knew the car was going to hit me. Reporter michael spent days in the hospital, in a body cast, with multiple breaks and fractures. I felt pretty lucky that im alive now, because i thought i would die, because the car was going really fast. Reporter its not just cars either. Watch this semi truck. Driving off road to pass the stopped school bus. This other semi passes another stopped bus just before this kindergartner crosses the street. This is literally life and death. It is, life and death. Reporter the Broward County sheriffs department, inviting us along to scan for offenders. Theres no room for error in this. Reporter right away, we start following this school bus. Okay, the yellow lights are on. Its about to make a stop. Cars should be slowing down now. When the bus stops, we see the red lights are flashing. The stop sign is out. Keep watching. Count with me. One, two, three, four, five cars fly right by. Bingo. Reporter so many violators, our deputy cant even get them all. The reason i stopped you today is because you passed a stopped school bus. Reporter why did they do it . Jeff rossen from nbc news. Did you see the bus is this. No, i did not. Reporter do you have children . Yeah. Reporter how would you feel if your child was, you know, crossing the street, expecting the cars to stop and then a car flew through . I would feel bad. I have taught my children to look both ways before they cross the street. Reporter but shouldnt they expect to be safe . But they need to be cautious, too. Reporter then deputies pulled over this car, the driver telling us she saw the bus too late. By the time i could do anything i said oh, my gosh. Reporter you realized what you had done . Yes, yes. Reporter from now on, will you pay more attention . I always do but this time i didnt. Reporter drivers both slapped with a 270 ticket. To me theyre not paying attention or dont see it. Youre talking about lives, children that could get hit. The video so dramatic. This problem has gotten so bad, School Districts across the country now installing new technology on school buses, little cameras that activate when the bus stops. Think of it like a red light camera, capturing the license plates of any car that flies by. They send the violator a ticket in the mail which range from 100 to 1,000 plus points on your license. But forget about that. Youre talking about the safety of children. I see it all the time in my neighborhood. Paappalling. Scary. Good thing theyre cracking down now.

Lets start off on a monday morning with a story thats lighting up our Facebook Page. Toys r us is selling a toy thats creating a lot of controversy, breaking bad, a teacher turned crystal meth dealer. The walter white action figure comes complete with whats supposed to be a bag of crystal meth. Now one florida mom is boycotting toys r us, calling the toy inappropriate and demanding it be pulled from the shelves. Toys r us tells us the toy is located in the adult action figure section of the stores and that the packaging clearly states it is for ages 15 and up. What do you think about this . Terrible. 15 and up still is right. Not appropriate. I saw some hidden camera video that showed that those dolls were hanging next to, like, thomas the truck or Something Like that. Have you seen the walking dead dolls . They come with a bag of dust. Is that true . No. But thats next. Come on, guys. Youre on to something here. You walk aid litted a little for that joke. Me .

The only ones coming close are beyonces self titled album and lorde lordes. Speaking of lorde, here is Something Interesting if youre heading off to work in San Francisco this morning. Theres one popular song youll not be hearing on the radio. Well never be royals how come . Nothing personal against lorde or royals. The world series gets started tomorrow and thats a bad thing there. If youre a San Francisco giants fan, it is. Theyre set to take on, thats right, kansas city royals. Two radio stations died theyll ban that charttopping single. One kansas city station says it will play royals once every hour. I like it. Might go platinum now. Might help it. One station is playing royals nonstop. Find ourselves living our lives through our smart phones, right . Here is a good reason why you shouldnt do that. This is happening during a live news report. Watch the guy oh trying to take a picture of the action. Takes a long walk off a short pier. I bet that hurt. Wow i would love to see that from his camera view. Cameras ruined. Exactly. Halloween is quickly approaching. If youve noticed that your neighbors decorations are spookier, youre not alone. Here is kevin tibbles. Reporter when it comes to halloween, a lot of folks get creepily creative. With all these hairraising, spinechilling displays comes the question, has halloween gone a little too ghoulish . No one has ever come to our block just for sight sight seei reporter zombies aplenty adorn this yard in minneapolis, so scary tour buses stop by to witness the ghostly sights. Monica paquet lives nearby and says it may be too much for tiny trick reporter i pittsburghs brookline neighborhood, some people want decorations outside this house of horrors taken down. These severed heads, limbs and skeletons are, of course, fake, but can still provide a real scare. We had to come see it. Its incredible. Its amazing. This guy, hes committed. Joe dioria started his overthetop yard decor 20 years ago. He says it gets bigger and gorier every year. Overwhelmingly, people seem to enjoy it, and they keep coming by and giving me thumbs up and high fives and tooting their horn. Reporter tooting their horns today, but come halloween, it will be shrieks, screams and trick or treat. For today, kevin tibbles, nbc news, chicago. Its funny, we all had had the same reaction. The skeletons, things like that, didnt bother us, its the babies. The demon babies. Up next, meredith and her longtime producer get mammograms on merediths show and get some unexpected results as well. Were going to talk to them in just 30 seconds. Them in j back now with our ongoing series pinkpower, in an effort to bring attention to Breast Cancer awareness month, meredith decided it was time to get a mammogram. So she buddyed up with angela, a producer on the Meredith Vieira show, and our own former coworker and the outcome was unexpected. Good morning to both of you. Yeah, hi, hoda. What happened . We all know how important it is to get regular mammograms, but we put it off for a while. We finally realized the time was right. We went for our appointment and we recorded it for the show. Heres what happened. Reporter its something we always used to do together. We have an appointment. Reporter the buddy system mammogram. But its been two years since i had one. And angela has put it off for five years. Okay. How are you . Im going to be in the other room watching as it happens. Reporter after taking nine images, dr. Drasman informs me that i need further testing with an ultrasound. Part of this is being able to open up the breast tissue and see all the areas clearly. Reporter im relieved to get a clean bill of health, but what about angela . Just like me, she needs an ultrasound. I do see a little area of d nodularity that i want a biopsy. Now i need an biopsy on the right side and aspiration on the other. Reporter shell have to wait 24 hours for the results, but she gets a biopsy immediately. Did it hurt . The aspiration i felt. The biopsy didnt really hurt. Its good that we came. Yeah. Do you think its going to be okay . I think its going to be fine. I really do. Thank you. Thank you for going with me. I love you. I love you, too. Wow only to start off by saying welcome. Its great to have you. Angela is also part of the today show family. Worked here for many years. You bandabandoned us and went w meredith, but were fine with that. When Something Like that happens on television, it has to be so jarring. What does it feel like having it come out in that way . As the producer, as a producer, i was looking up and i was a little stunned because i thought, this is crazy. And then dr. Drassman said lets stop which i thought was the right thing. But then i thought we cant do this and not do it. Right. We based the show merediths show is about being authentic. We werent going to come out and say we had these great little mammograms. You have to tell the truth. Right. So i said lets continue. Are you still processing or yeah, i am processing. Physically, you know, im getting opinions and im going for information and i know sort of what i have ahead of me. I have to have chemo even though its early stage because its invasive. Its also the nature of it. I have to either have a lumpectomy with radiation or maybe something more than that. Im waiting to get results. It was surreal. You know. Im so glad you went when you did. Im guilty of this, too, so im not casting anything. You didnt go youre supposed to go every year, and you didnt. I didnt go for years and years. My mom had Breast Cancer. My grandmother died of Breast Cancer. Yeah. Both postmenopausal. And my dad was a doctor. Youd think id be so proactive about my health. Angies dad my dads a radiologist. I think i thought if i didnt go, no harm could happen to me. Its total illogic. Its ridiculous. How many years since you went . We went together back in 2008. I think 2008 which is ridiculous. I know that. But i dont think im unusual in the sense that so many people put things off because really, youre afraid. And i know better. You know better. Right. I really put it on off. I talked to so many people afterwards. Everybody who knows me, theyre calling and getting mammograms, which is great, and sonograms which is how it was discovered. You guys did the buddy thing which is such a smart idea. Did you call her in years past and say hey, look, its our time to go . What did you say . Im too busy producing segments. I never put my health i never submit my Health Insurance. Its too expensive z im not going to get the money back. A million excuses. The doctor would yell at me every year. Wheres angela . Tell us the importance, meredith, of going on the buddy system. Because thats almost the only way some people ever end up going. Yeah, because you can encourage each other. Nudge each other a little bit. Weve got to do this. Make it a day. You know, hopefully a celebratory day. But in the case where you get some bad news, its great to have a friend there. Yeah. I mean, i was so glad to be there for angela. I mean, i literally owe meredith my life, which is annoying now. What do i get her for christmas . Youd better start thinking. A little trinket for the tree. I mean, seriously . Did you know what to say . Sometimes when youre with someone going through Something Like that, its hard to know you said i love you, but what did you i think thats about all you can say, and that im here for you and whatever you need. And ive been on the internet all weekend, googling everything i can about Breast Cancer so that i can be an advocate for angela, too. How about advice for people watching your show, this show . Get your mammogram. Dont be afraid. Go with a friend. I really do believe thats the best thing you can do. Yeah. And if you care about someone. And for the men out there who care about women in their lives, fathers, husbands, boyfriends, brothers, cousins. Say it, you know. And take it seriously. Women have to theres so much information out there. Theres such a support system that i didnt expect. Well, you have a little baby. I know you have to take care of.

I dont see you cook in the show, yet this is something you really enjoy doing. Kourtney, i was 22 years old. Have you to feed her. They give you a baby, you have to feed it so it will grow. Ive been cooking. Over the years i have found that my family loves certain recipes that i love to make. Whats the goto . Whats the number one . It used to be i love pasta. So, many, many pasta dishes along the way, sausage and peppers and pasta primavera. Everybody has a favorite. Kendalls favorite is its just she needs it the day before. Brownies and dedicated to the ones you love. Yes. It mentions your kids and everybody, but it doesnt mention bruce. Well, you know what . Because i did it for the kids this time. And bruce and i were, you know, getting a divorce. So, i mean, hes a great guy, but i just did it for the kids and grandkids. Now how is that separation, divorce proceeding, how is that going . You know what . At some point in your life, you have to make a decision to do whats right for your you know, your family. Yes. And the kids. And i think we decided to be grownups and we decided if were you know, were just better apart than we are together. But were still really good friends. So you just have to say, okay, were going to do this the way we think its best for everybody and everybody is really comfortable with it. It must be weird looking through tabloids and magazines. Youre in every one, one of you or your kids is in every one. Theyre 99. 9 wrong most of the time. Will you clear up a few things . Bruce, they show him and say hes slowly developing into a woman. Yeah. Is that a bunch of malarkey . Its silly. Theyve been saying that since the 70s. You would think you would be cooked by now. I dont know. That story line continues . It just continues, since the 70s. They all do. They keep regurgitating the same old stuff. Do you care who he dates . The latest tabloid, hes dating a friend of yours. Right. I just want him to be happy. I dont know who he is dating. He doesnt check in with me, give me a playbyplay. Its his life. Hes still the father of two of my children and so were friends. Speaking of those two and flipping through another magazine time magazine, flip, flip, flip. Yeah. Kendall and kylie, the most influential teens. How did that feel . Isnt that great . Im really proud of those two. They are amazing kids with great hearts. Theyre really smart. And they work hard. Theyve got that great work ethic. They picked up probably from their older siblings. Or from you. They know how to get it done. So im just proud of them, that they have picked projects that they like to work on. They have a clothing line. Kendalls modeling and kylie has her new hair extension line. And everything that they do, they do with a lot of passion. I think thats interesting. There was a little, as there is with most things. Theres a little blow back on the time magazine. But the kids do more than show up and look pretty. Oh, god, yes. When they do their clothing line, they dont just stamp their name on something. I told you this before. Theyre in a design meeting, doing zippers and lining and buttons. They actually have the best education in the world, doing what theyre doing. Because theyve learned so much about business. Sure. And being an entrepreneur and how to make things happen from nothing. Overall, are you happy . I am so happy. I can tell. I can tell. Youre going to come back a little later. Yes, i am. Youre going to cook with us at 10 00. Would love to. Thank you so much, kris. Thanks for being here. Again its in the kitchen with kris.

Announcer 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 on a monday morning, october 20th, 2014. It certainly feelslike fall out there. Im willie, along with al, natalie and tamron. Hope you all had a good weekend. We had an exciting weekend, the four of us did. To start off. Starting off the weekend, capped by a visit to the hospital . Lets start at beginning. We went together, the four of us, to the brighton asylum Haunted House in passaic, new jersey. An asylum thats haunted. Big old abandoned asylum. This is the infrared camera following us through these hallways, people jumping out with chainsaws. I guess we went one by one, singlestyle formation. We decided to hold hands. Because we couldnt see, for one thing. Im wearing a manzier. On the outside, considering fashion choice. And that screaming led to an injury, i understand. Natalie, your voice was sore. 20 minutes. You walk through. The entire time, someone is either jumping out at you or youre bracing for someone to jump out at you. Uhhuh. And al, once we ran for freedom and got out, you said oh, man, my shoulder. I think i hit my arm, scraped up my arm. Thats because here is the thing. They said on average it takes 20 minutes to get through. We cleared it in a little under 12 minutes. Thats right. We were going, as willie is the lead man willie is the lead. We were going at about, i dont know, 30 miles per hour. So were whipping into walls. Bam, boom. Its called a Haunted House, not a bumper car derby. So your shoulder got injured . I didnt get injured. So i got in the car to go back home, because this is in new jersey. I started sweating and the driver who brought us out said are you okay . And i said i dont know. My stomach hurts really bad. I cant breathe. And he said let me pull over. I said no, no, no, dont pull over. Take me home. I took a hot herbal musclesoaked bath, feeling nauseous and im really worried. Do i call 911 . Do i call my mother . I dont know. I take an advil, advil pm. I start escalating. I go to sleep. Next morning, i was at a five or six and al calls and says i think you might have appendicitis. Ive had it once. Whatever happens if, youre still nauseous, you ought to get checked out. I was really in so much pain. Went to the hospital. Didnt tell my mom. Until now. Because she would have been hysterical. Went to the hospital. Had a sonogram, blood work, the whole nine yards. And what did they say . I have a deep muscle tear. From screaming for 20 minutes . For screaming for 20 minutes. Its a good scream. Thank you. It was so painful. My throat is still sore. And i decided you should let us know. Go to our today todays take. I dont think horror places like that are for everyone. No. They do warn and say they have a warning. Make sure youre able to handle it. We should thank our producers for sending us on that. Yeah, thank you. Is your throat sore . Im good. I had a great weekend. Al is talking to the zombies. Hey, hows your day . Hows the weather in your neck of the woods . I was like, al, dont engage. The guy walked up with a bloody head, screamed at al and he said, you know, you should have that looked at. Natalies wedding ring i said im going to make a cast of your her ring, the design was embedded in my palm. We were clutched. And willie, hes trying to act like hes so calm and cool, was the grip. The willie vice grip. I was trying to make you feel secure, tamron. The vice grip and the sweat certainly escalated as we went minute to minute. When you see the piece i think its going to air the day before halloween to get you in the mood. Tamron had literally she had this pristine tshirt that had she literally you were going out after. I was going out. She literally sweated through this. She pitted it out completely. She pitted it out. I pity the fool. You pitted the fool. Tamron, when she screams, she also jumps. And so my hand is going like this the whole time while youre jumping. I think that had to do with the tear. You were screaming. I was screaming pretty you both were. All a great advertisement for the brighton asylum Haunted House in new jersey. Scariest place on earth. Not for everyone. Make sure thats right. Put your doctor on call. And thank you very much. Listen, another story hays caught our eye today far from a horror house or house of horror, but something that is absolutely scary. This facebook battle between, i guess you could say, two families in a sense. It brings the question up of how responsible are parents for their kids actions . Bottom line is a young man posted a pretty mean description of a young girl on his Facebook Page. Theyre in seventh grade, in georgia. And the family was told to take it down. But it remained up on his Facebook Page after this went through the courts. This went through the schools, the whole nine yards. The app he used to create the horrible image of this girl, i hate to say it but its something called fat face app. That tells you in itself how mean it is. It stayed up online for 11 months. Now the question is, the parents of the boy, are they responsible for their childs actions . The courts say that they are responsible, because they were because they knew that he had, i guess, posted these harsh things on that site, on her site. If you didnt know, thats one thing. Once they knew, once they were apprised of it and once they were told, take this down. Absolutely as a parent if i god forbid Something Like that was happening with my children. I would make sure that, you know, you cant do that. And it wasnt his Facebook Page. He created this other Facebook Page. He created one. I guess you could excuse the parents, they didnt know where to look. But when it stays up for 11 months after the school tells you about it. They disciplined the kid. The parents grounded him. How could it stay up for 11 months after that . Thats the question. Hes in the seventh grade. If you cant control the seventh grader in resource homyour home chance for the teachers or principal, because if hes not showing we spoke to the parents of the young girl. All parties were aware. Sure. We have no information that indicates the parents were unaware of this page created. Im surprised facebook didnt take it down. They did eventually. It took 11 months . Yeah. Thats crazy. Thats Cyber Bullying. You need to step in and if the kid drinks underage, if theres Cyber Bullying once you know you have to parent your child. Its your responsibility to do something and Say Something to correct that behavior. I agree. I agree. Lets move on to the most interesting story of the day. This, out of california. On sunday morning, firefighters had to rescue a woman. Get this. She got stuck about eight feet deep inside a chimney. Here is the interesting part of this whole story. She met this guy online. Lawrence fernandez. He met the woman online. After seeing her a couple of times, i guess he tried to break off the relationship. And thats when she showed up at the house and the rest ensued. Here is what he has to say about their socalled relationship. I met her online not too long ago and, you know, i thought she was pretty normal, as you meet people online. And, you know, we hung out a couple of times and, you know, you never know how crazy somebody is until they do crazy things. And, you know, this is a pretty crazy thing. As al said earlier, was the rabbit in the pot . Im telling you. Oh, my gosh thats nuts. Thankfully, she was okay. They were able to take her out. They had to take the chimney apart brick by brick, use dish soap to lubricate her to get her out. Turns out her last name was claus. Thats terrible. You guys are all married. Im single. People have often said have you ever gone on a dating site . No offense against them. Im sure theyre fantastic. I know people who have met, fallen in love, gotten married but for every one of those. Yeah. This is the one odd i dont know. Woman down a chimney is, hopefully, the exception. I dont know. You may not have someone in your chimney, but ive heard some pretty crazy stories. This friend of mine went out on a date with a guy. And i cant even tell it. Never mind. You started the story. Come on, really . Really . You know why . Because she watches the show. You started it. Nothing like outing her. Al will do the weather. Ill vet the story. What the heck . Seriously. Stay tuned. Please forgive me. We should have left you in that house. No oh. Oh. Im only kidding.

We were talking when al was doing the weather. Youre a little bit scared to get back out on the road. I am. Explain what you meant about that. Its not a usual thing to do for a living, or anybody, just to get up in front of thousands of people, keep them seated and have a good time. Ive forgotten how to do it since i did it 2 1 2 years ago. So i have to acustomize myself to doing that now. And it takes a while. Im 2 1 2 years away from having done it. And i hope i remember some of it. Thats all. I think youll do just fine, neil. When you break out sweet caroline, the minute that song starts, people get so into it. Whats that like for you . Its so amazing. I cant account for that either. I thought when i wrote the song, i thought this is some kind of magic that happened. It was very unexpected. It was last minute. The whole thing took about half an hour. Only half an hour . It took about half an hour to write it. Who is it about . Who is caroline . Its actually about my former wife, marcia, but i couldnt get marcia into the threesyllable name that i needed. So i had i had Caroline Kennedys name there from years ago. One of my books and i tried sweet that works. It didnt work with marcia. So i couldnt tell her that i dedicated the song to her. It was almost marcia. Thats my song, really. She said to me, but you told me you were going to write about me. Im sorry, dear. I did, sweetie, really. It was. There was no way to squeeze it in. How do you balance when you have such incredible classics with that musician spirit who wants to create new music and you want your fans to love it . How do you balance that . You try to write new songs that are on the same level. Thats always the challenge. And sometimes you do, and sometimes you dont. This new album was i was a nervous wreck, because i knew i had 40 or almost 50 years of songwriting to match up to. But there was some i got lucky with this album. Theres some really, really special songs in there. So, whew its like you dodge a bullet. Neil diamonds fun fact. He hates Haunted Houses. I hate anything scary. Were with you. Yeah. Scary. Scary. By the way, i made the sean connery. Take a look. Highlight reel . You have more hair. Pretty good. I dont have my glasses. Is that sean connery on the left . Well, i cant tell the difference. He as not moving in the video. I didnt know. He didnt move yet. The album is called melody road. You have one more song coming up with kathie lee and hoda. Thank you so much. I love it. I dont know which one i am in the video. Coming up next, unexpected diagnosis and the power of positive attitude. A great i had this deep, radiating pain, everywhere. And i wondered what it was. My doctor diagnosed it as fibromyalgia thought to be the result of overactive nerves that cause chronic, widespread pain. Lyrica is believed to calm these nerves. I learned lyrica can provide significant relief from fibromyalgia pain. And less pain means i can do more with the ones i love. Lyrica is not for everyone. It may cause serious allergic reactions or suicidal thoughts or actions. Tell your doctor right away if you have these, new or worsening depression, or unusual changes in mood or behavior. Or swelling, trouble breathing, rash, hives, blisters, changes in eyesight including blurry vision, muscle pain with fever, or tired feeling. Common side effects are dizziness, sleepiness, weight gain and swelling of hands, legs and feet. Dont drink alcohol while taking lyrica. Dont drive or use machinery until you know how lyrica affects you. Those who have had a drug or alcohol problem may be more likely to misuse lyrica. I found answers about fibromyalgia. Then i found lyrica. Ask your doctor about lyrica today. You get used to food you think it smells fine,n. But your guests think it smells like this.

Breast Cancer Awareness month, a great story of a young survivor inspiring others. Despite several obstacles along the way, sarah realized the power of positivity. 25 years old. I found a lump in my breast. I decided to be proactive and get it checked out and it turns out that it was, indeed, Breast Cancer. I, immediately, burst into tears. I thought i was going to die. Sarahs mother, lillian, and her twin, lois, are both Breast Cancer survivors. In our middle to late 50s. I never thought it would happen to her. Its very uncommon for Breast Cancer to happen at the age of 25. Breast cancer happens, on average, at around age 60. About one out of eight invasive Breast Cancers are found in women younger than 45. And only 1. 8 of Breast Cancer patients are between the ages of 20 and 34. Sarah, along with her doctors, responded aggressively to her stage two Breast Cancer with chemotherapy plus a bilateral mastectomy and reconstruction. I had a choice to be angry or sad, but i chose to be positive and hopeful. And there was unwaivering support from her college sweetheart, matt. There was never any question that he would be at every single appointment. I went to graduate school and i got married and bought a house and got a dog and was doing all the things that i had hoped to do. Then the unthinkable happened. I had just sort of celebrated my fiveyear cancerversary, we call it, and discovered another lump on top of my reconstruction. Youre looking at a picture of sarahs chest. The area of abnormality thats a little thicker is about three centimeters, which was how big her recurrence was. After surgery, theyre rolling me into the elevator and i look out the doors and theres a big sign that says maternity ward. And then the doors close. And at that moment, i really thought that that was never going to happen. But sarahs health needed to be the priority. Especially after it was tested in a new way. I was participating in a runway show of Breast Cancer survivors and went into cardiac arrest. Today, i have internal cardiac defibrillator that monitors my heart rhythm. At that moment, sarah decided neither that neardeath experience nor treatment of the new tumor would keep her from pursuing a role she has long sinced hope for, mother. We went through the process of ivf. I think i had made a joke at some point and i said lets just have lisa, my husbands sister, carry our embryo for us. And that was like, shes actually already mentioned it to me. I had no clue what was involved in having a child for someone else, but the thought of it did not scare me at all. She was just not going to take no for an answer. She kind of god like. Shes way better than the best sister ever. Embryos transferred into lisa just before sarah started another round of chemotherapy. Fast forward nine months. On april 8th, 2011, lily was born. People have asked me how is it to give up your child . I never gave up my child. It was always matt and sarahs in my head. I can never thank lisa enough. Cancer is such a horrible thing and it takes away so much. But i got this really amazing thing because of it. Wow sarahs healthy, doing well. Her daughter, lily is 3 1 2 years old. Sarahs oncologist suggests that lily start getting screened as early as age 20, something we were discussing. Sit down, talk with your doctor.

You can see in the live video, from the video on our helicopter that the outage is causing a massive backup. This happening at ignacio valley road. The lights were damaged in a single vehicle crash just after midnight. Police said the lights are flashing red which should be treated the same as a stop sign. If theyre out taking them westbound on ignacio valley road from concord. The lights wont be fixed until 2 00 this afternoon. Could be a long wait.

Everything about her is so cute. We have first birthday parties, of course. First birthday parties are the new norm. Which are really fun. I had a fun adult brunch yesterday. But i dont know about you, my sundays are totally dominated by football. Thats all there is. Yes and no. Yes and no. For example, we schedule the brunch with good friends, the boys were on one side with their phones, my fantasy team jenna, my fantasy team. I dont get the fantasy thing.

She even has the snarl. Okay. And i just i didnt put any gel in her hair. Lift it back with a little rag, and on the actual day i might spray a little baby friendly. And number two, a peinata. I like the pinata, as long as she doesnt choke on the little things. My mom is like is that paper . Im, like, no. Should baby neleh be belvis or the pinata . The reason why i like belvis, she can only be a boy for that much longer, you know what i mean . Next year shes going to want when you went out for halloween, you said you were always the boy. Thats true. I could never pull off like the naughty nurse. One of my friends used to dress up that way when we were older, the sexy, naughty, whatever and i was always the cow with the utters flapping around. I always had more fun. When you try to dress like that, and go to a party a, youre worried things are going to fall out. I was. Even if it was just a stomach wall, nobody wants to see that. Second of all, i was always the one that was nominated to be the boy. It was, like, who is going to be austin powers. Jen jenna. Who is the person with the mustac mustache . Jenna. Last year neleh was a baby astronaut, and everybody was, like, what a cute boy. Im, like, girls can be astronauts. Good for you. Good for you.

Cases of west nile virus have exploded across the state of california. And the drought could be to blame. The Contra Costa Times reports the number of mosquitos infected with the virus statewide is at the highest level ever detected. 562 human cases reported just this year alone. That is more than twice the number from just a year ago. Health Officials Say it could be linked to a range of factors, including climate, the number of birds and mosquitos in the area and, of course, the drought.

Okay. That makes sense. Robin, lets hear your side of the story . I would like to have a lower premium im sorry a higher premium and lower deductible because i feel were going to meet the deductible immediately and all of a sudden our Health Insurance is going to be paying us back immediately. Otherwise were going to be paying and paying and paying our medical costs and never see our Health Insurance pay us back. Time for the verdict. What were you going to do with the savings . Id like to go on a cruise. Okay. The verdict is this is in the a high deductible, high cruise factor. Here is the deal. The verdict, nice try, but you lose. The verdict is for robin. Why .

Sha shafali wants separate accounts and duvall wants a joint account. Okay, judge dave. Or, plead your case. I want the dual income. You want extra cash. Okay. Shafali. I want separate accounts because he spends a lot of money. Hes starting his new business, and i just want to make sure we keep track of everything he spends. Is it about trust or not for you . For me, it is trust, he spends a lot, like, i just want to make sure i have control. And you just want more money. Absolutely. Absolutely. Thats one of the perks. Dont you she makes the money for herself, dont you ever think if you want to buy something, you should buy it with your own work money or no . Well, before, but now it is were together. Up to you.
