Later today, he will walk out of this hospital. Meantime, as you say, this morning, another new scare at the Newark Airport, this one involving a passenger from liberia. Another day, another worry. A sick passenger who landed at Newark Airport outside new york tuesday sent to a local hospital and isolated. Medical workers are evaluating his symptoms out of an abundance of caution. The Liberian National had traveled from liberia to brussels before flying in to the u. S. On flight 998, landing before 1 00 pm tuesday.

Through one of five airports that have screening where temperatures and travel history are taken. Late word telling nbc news, the passenger, liberian who came into newark, likely does not have ebola. That is good news here, the latest from here in nebraska. Back to you, hoda, matt. Kate snow on the story for us. Thank you very much. The fbi is going through the online history of three colorado girls after they were stopped in germany. Investigators believe they were on a journey to join up with islamic militants in syria. Nbcs justice correspondent Pete Williams has latest on that. Good morning, pete. Reporter hoda, good morning. No release of names because these girls are all under 18 and no charges have been filed. But Officials Say this is an example of the system working, worried parents sounding the alarm, getting the fbi on the case. The fbi says if the parents of the three girls, ages 15, 16 and 17 had not spoken up, the teens probably would not have been stopped, detained over the weekend at the airport in frankfurt, germany. American officials believe they planned to travel on to syria and join up with isis or another group. We are very grateful to germany for their cooperation with us on this particular instance of some young folks who were traveling. Reporter their father reported them missing when they didnt come home from school on friday evening. The Sheriffs Office reports he discovered their passports were missing, too, along with 2,000 in cash. Alarmed, he called local authorities, who notified the fbi. Thats when officials discovered that the sisters and another girl, the daughter of parents from sudan, who also live in denver, left friday on a flight to chicago, then to frankfurt, and had tickets to fly on to istanbul in turkey. Notified by american authorities, german Airport Police stopped them in frankfurt and sent them home. Back in colorado, they told a sheriffs deputy they left for family reasons but refused to elaborate. Authorities are now checking their emails and internet histories to see if others were involved. And officials are also investigating whether one of the girls struck up a relationship with someone in syria she met online. The prospect that americans would be recruited by the slick propaganda pumped out by isis has been a prime National Security worry. Any time you have even one individual who seeks to join isis, you have the possibility that they will be trained at a high level, radicalized and then possibly returned to conduct an attack in the United States. Reporter u. S. Officials say they doubt any charges will be filed. Prosecuting minors is rare and complicated in the federal system. But Authorities Say they will keep a close eye on the three girls.

Ben bradlee, former editor of the Washington Post, who guided that paper through the watergate story, has died at the age of 93. Nbcs Andrea Mitchell has more on the man and his legendary career. It was legendary, andrea. Indeed, it was, matt, leading the Washington Posts historic coverage of watergate, leading to the resignation of richard nixon, events that influenced generations of journalists to follow. Ben bradlee, the hardcharging, swashbuckling, often profane editor who took on a president. Is it hard for a newspaper to go up against a popular president . Its my kind of hard. I like that. If youre right, it isnt hard. Reporter played in all the president s men by jason robards. When is somebody going to go on the record on this story . Reporter already famous when two young reporters, bob woodward and carl bernstein, took on a source they named deep throat. They kept his identity a secret for decades until the source, a highranking fbi official, was revealed by others. All that time, confiding only in bradlee. Nixons involved. Lives could be at stake. Theres wiretapping. This is going the distance. His question was, what the hell do we do now . Reporter the late publisher, katherine graham, didnt flinch, despite white house threats to ruin her and the paper. She also backed bradlee in publishing the pentagon papers, a secret history of the vietnam war, a landmark case they won against the Nixon White House in the supreme court. Bradlee, a boston brahmin, a world war ii veteran and his wife, sally, the Washington Post reporter, defined the washington couple for decades. This past year, president obama awarded bradlee the medal of freedom. He was, on balance, the greatest newspaper editor of postwar period. He was daring. He was willing to be dangerous. Reporter president obama issued a statement late last night that for benjamin bradlee, journalism was more than a profession, it was a good vital to our democracy. He was an inspiration to all of us, to you. Back to you guys. Thank you very much. Carson is off. He has the voice going on. Tamron is in, in the orange room. Good morning, girl. Good morning. Good morning, everyone. Who didnt and who cant say they werent influenced by ben bradlee in this business . We actually said a legend of our era, but of all time. He will be remembered for his great work and influence, as andrea mentioned, on all of us here. And, guy, by the numbers, 70,000 tweets in the matter of 11 hours after the news of ben bradlees passing. We have pulled a couple of the ones that have stood out to us. Larry king, great editor and friend of mine, ben bradlee of the Washington Post was 93. Courageous. Rest in peace, my friend. We got a statement in from our own tom brokaw. Just as there will not be another babe ruth, sinatra or hemingway, there will not be another bradlee. I miss him already. From bob woodward and carl bernstein, these men tied together in history forever. Ben was a true friend and a genius leader in journalism. He forever altered our business. We loved him deeply and he will never be forgotten or replaced in our lives. And, you know, you can talk about someones professional life and the impact they had in the work world. But for bradlee, he said his lifes work was a book he wrote in 2002 life work fathers and sons. You should read it, if you havent had an opportunity. It takes you past that historic career but inside his home, his family, which meant more than anything. A lot of people will be picking up that book. You should take that picture of him and put it up in newsrooms just to remind people how we should be. Youre right.

Lets begin this half hour with the latest on the hazing investigation surrounding the Football Team at a high school in new jersey. Its season already canceled, seven players facing criminal charges and now suspensions of the teams Coaching Staff are being extended. National correspondent craig melvin has more on that. Good morning, craig. Hoda, good morning to you. At a sometimes Heated School Board meeting here in sayreville last night, Board Members approved five suspensions for football coaches, including the head coach who has been here roughly two decades. This, as we learn more about what may have happened inside that locker room. Late tuesday, sayreville Board Members approved the suspension for the head coach and other coaches as many in the community passionately defended the coach. We are showing our support to coach najar because of his character. He is one of the biggest impacts in everybody in this communitys lives. Reporter one player insists the allegations against his teammates are not true. The accusations are all false. To me, its a lie. Ive been in the locker room and nothing has ever happened. Reporter youve never seen anything thats been described . No, sir. Reporter seven players 15 to 17 are facing criminal charges, including aggravated Sexual Assault and criminal restraint. According to a report in the New York Daily News all of those accuse rd minorities, causing further controversy since the majority of the team is white. Four freshman players were victimized during a tenday period in late september. News reports say in one case upper classmen allegedly pinned a freshman player down before sexually assaulting him. The New York Times interviewed some of the alleged victims and witness with his different accounts of what happened in the locker room. Of the alleged victims that we spoke to, both of them said that they thought this was just a part of team bonding, a part of camaraderie, but witnesses said what they say was very upsetting to them. Reporter the allegations and media attention, they say, have taken a toll on their client. Hes a child and not only the magnitude of the charges but just the magnitude of the attention. Its a very daunting, sobering experience for him. Reporter the coaches are suspended with pay until the investigation is complete. Im told by a school board official that that is likely to take at least several more weeks. Hoda . Craig melvin, thanks so much. Lets get a check of the weather now from mr. Roker.

The new book is called killing patton. Good to see you, as always. Is it really, lauer . It is. Youre insecure. You need to have more confidence in yourself. My therapist is right there in the orange room. Really . Well talk about the book in a second. Can i ask you about ebola . There was Something Interesting in the new york time over the weekend, we have no clue at this point how far ebola could spread in the United States and no reason for panic, but one dimension of the diseases toll is clear, its ravaging americans already tenuous faith in the competence of our government and bureaucracy. Do you agree with that . Yes. Ebola is not going to break out to be the andromeda strain. Theres not going to be a big end in big epidemic in america. Theres just not the access that americans have to this disease. One or two cases will pop up. But the fear is very, very disturbing to me. People should be more rational. That being said, they should be angry at their government, because they blew it blew it, blew it, blew it. Would you curtail flights from africa if you were president . Of course i would. Shut it down . Nobody comes in to the United States . You basically have to deny visas to people who dont have to be here until we get organized. Until we get organized. Were not organized now. You say the government blew it, blew it, blew it. Yes. He goes further and says ebola is his presidency in a petri dish. Right now theres a crisis of competence and confidence and that is the Fertile Ground in which the ebola terror flowers. Thats the backdrop for steps of whatever obama and biden take from here. Calming people who are anxious not just about ebola but about america. I dont even want to think about the wrong ones. Listen, i dont blame president obama for the ebola chaos. I do blame frieden. He should have been removed a long time ago. He should have been removed. When you cant explain how you get ebola on a bus which he cant. He says, you know what, if you go on the bus with ebola, you cant give it to anybody. However, if youre sitting next to somebody on a bus and they sneeze you on, you can get it. Does that make sense . Thats what the man said. As soon as he said that, the president should have said put him on vacation, get somebody else in there. The president doesnt do that. That is the leadership factor. More to come on that. Lets go to patton. How would you rank general patton in the list of alltime wartime battlefield generals . Who is above him . U. S. Grant, civil war. And you could argue macarthur. Brilliant in the pacific. Ive got books on my shelf in my library at home, all kind of patton books. When you looked at the subject, what hand been said . Oh, stop, lauer. You didnt read killing patton. Every single page in the book is stuff you dont know, lauer every page. You could say that about a lot of books. No, you cant. Theyre usually derivative. We do something called investigative history, Martin Dugard and i. We put you in the furor. Lets tell you who they really were. Patton is relieved of his post 1945, set to fly back to the United States. I think it was the day before the day before. He gets into a car accident with a truck, right . Yes. On a scale of one to ten, that accident was a it was a two . Its ridiculous. Its a clear day. Hes driving down. All of a sudden, a military truck comes and smashes into him for no reason. And it shouldnt have been life threatening but two weeks later, hes dead. And you say and thats the Fertile Ground for conspiracy for you . Yeah, and you know i wrote killing kennedy and debunked all the conspiracies there but stalin was after patton. Because he criticized the russians . Coming back to the United States, doing a speaking tour telling the americans that the soviet were the the soviets were the enemy, whereas truman was saying, no, theyre our friends. Have you found something that hasnt been done on this subject before . A million things, lauer. A book in 2008 thats why you have to read the book. Dont hold it upside down. Its important. All right. They couldnt get patton in the ground fast enough. No autopsy. All the paperwork disappears. Where is it . Its too bad youre not passionate about the subject. You know you are my guru for all things pop culture. Lets end on one pop culture work. Lot of Renee Zellweger this morning. I like renee, very pretty girl. First of all, she says she hasnt done anything. She has the right to live her life the way she wants. If she wants to look like that shes not unattractive. I think Everybody Needs to leave her alone. Shes a good actress, a nice person. Isnt it nice to end on agreement . I agree completely with you. People should leave her alone. You hang with this swell. I dont hang with the swell. Shes a good actress and a nice person are you a swell . You wouldnt be seen dead with me, all right . Bill oreilly. Come on. Congratulations. Thank you. Again the book is called killing patton.

Changing the way you think of retirement. Were back at 8 10 on a wednesday morning. Good time for whats trending today, and we start on a wednesday morning with Renee Zellweger. By now, youve probably already seen some photos comparing what she looked like then and now. This morning, zellweger is speaking out, addressing the speculation about what seems to be a dramatic change in her appearance. Heres nbcs halle jackson. Reporter from the moment she famously fell in love on screen you had me at hello. Reporter Renee Zellweger captured hollywood hearts. Her star shining brightly for two decades as she won fans and an oscar award. But this week, the glare of the spotlight intensifies. She looks very lovely. She looks very different. Reporter zellweger appeared on the red carpet in Beverly Hills monday night and almost immediately, headlines declared her unrecognizable, a different human being, asking is that you, Renee Zellweger . Overnight, the actress responded to the reaction, telling people magazine, im glad folks think i look different im living a different, happy, more fulfilling life, and im thrilled that perhaps it shows. Calling the conversation about her looks silly, she added shes living a healthier lifestyle now, perhaps i look different. Who doesnt as they get older . Ha. But i am different. Im happy. Reps for the actress did not comment on her most recent red carpet appearance, but zellweger is just the latest in a long line of hollywood women whose new look raised eyebrows. Celebrities like lara flynn boyle, dirty dancings Jennifer Grey and meg ryan, americas sweetheart. Well, what are they supposed to do . Theres no work if they look their age, and if they try not to look their age, then they get ragged on. Well, what are they supposed to do . Im hoping that its changing. Reporter many are now rushing to zellwegers defense online, arguing leave her face alone. Nothing is wrong with her face, theres something wrong with us. And she can do whatever she wants. And perhaps that is the most fitting line for an actress whos delivered many memorable ones. You look gorgeous. Thank you. Its very important at this moment. Reporter for today, haley jackson, nbc news, los angeles. What do we think . You know, i did look at her picture the first time and it took a double take to figure out who it was. And shes very identifiable by her eyes. Like, i think those are her signature, so it looks like something happened. But you know what, theyre right. In hollywood, you have to, you know, maintain a youthful look to go far. I feel sorry for her, though, seeing all the headlines and she says shes at a different point in her life and there were cruel things said. It really took my breath away. I know shes star and put herself out there, but it was sad. Just because shes a public figure doesnt mean she has been on this show a lot of times and its never been about her looks. She has one of those great, fun personalities, which sets her apart. In a Perfect World, people would not be commenting about this. It is not a Perfect World and shes a public figure. She is a great actress. Im kind of famous for this. Youre famous for this. Oh, yeah. It is called ghosting. Youre at a party and you want to leave but you dont want to say goodbye to everybody because you just want to do your back exit. I use the im going to the bathroom thing. Some people think its rude. Folks at slate. Com wrote a piece using ghosting. Slipping out is actually more considerate. Good. Which i agree with. You dont want to make a whole thing. Get over here. Get back here. Hes ghosting on us. If youre at a big event and start shaking hands, i have to go early, it seems like everybody has to stop their conversation and say goodbye to you. I always slip out. You do . Weve been at events at the same time. You do it here. I always use the excuse im going to the bathroom with hoda. Walking backwards. You just kind of shaking hands still. I actually got nicknamed hodini. I dont know if thats the reason. We went to our Facebook Page to ask if ghosting was rude. Oh, no. 80 say youre rude. Ythey want you to say goodbe to the host. Not to everyone. Its not as rude because we leave so early for so many of these dinners if you get up, you do kind of put a crimp in the whole thing. It was like, was matt lauer here . How many times was Elizabeth Taylor married . Eight. Eight. We have photos. These have never been seen before. Take a look. This was back in 1991. You see taylor looking stunning in the custom valentino gown, we are told, and Michael Jackson helped to walk taylor down the aisle. Elizabeth Taylor Aids Foundation releasing the photos exclusively to people. Com. Question for everyone. I already know the answer. You googled yourselves, right . Yes. Not recently. Well, if you find something you dont like, take a lesson from stevphen colbert, he said e googled himself every single day and he recently found something he did not like. I was horrified to learn that the google celebrity profile of me lists my height at 510, i am 511, okay, thats me, brad pitt and russell crowe. 510 . Thats matt damon numbers. Thats what johnny depp is sucking. These guys represent the lollypop guys. It gets better. He called out the ceo demanding an apology and a substantial cash settlement. So what happens now if you google how tall is stephen colbert, notice there is no specific height for john stewart, he is just shorter. Well, i google his height first, i didnt know they put your height in. I am listed at 59. You are not 59. But i will take it. I will take it. The other thing the internet loves a good game show moment. This guy had been watching the show for over 40 years, and watch what happens when his spin lands on the big money. Look what is happening, buddy. Whoa yeah. What was that . He had a unique dance move. I dont know that we needed to see that. He won 25,000. It happened twice. He landed on it twice in a row. Whoa. Thats reverse twerking. Thats why they pick guys like him to go up onstage. Come on down. More than 59,000 bucks is what he won, a car and a cruise. Were back in just 30 seconds. So much has been written about former first lady, jacqueline kennedy, but a new book takes a look at her life through a different lens. Natalie has more on that. For decades after her husbands assassination Jackie Kennedy suffered the affects of post Traumatic Stress disorder forcing her to live that fateful day in dallas over and over again. Jackie kennedy spent her life in the public eye, and from her time as the young wife of a rising politician i have enjoyed campaigning so much, mrs. Kennedy. To her life overseas, married to a greek shipping tycoon, to her life spent as a philanthropist. But behind the smile was a haunted soul. The inner struggle is the subject of the book by the kennedy biographer. She wanted an unpredictable life. There was infidelity and illness and political pressure, and it was in this last arena jackie tried to save her marriage. The day in dallas he said to her, you played so well in texas, will you campaign with me in california in two weeks . Jackie knew what that meant and said yes. The assassination stunned the world, but for jackie it was devastating. She is traumatized in a very specific way. Her husbands head was inches from her face and she was look into his face when the gunshot blew his head apart. The book says jackie was tproe frozen in the moment, retelling the death to friends and family and even mentioned suicide. At the time post Traumatic Stress disorder was not recognized and she received no formal counseling. She was constantly waiting for the next attack. When is it coming . You are in a state of arousal at all times waiting for the next gunshot. Its a hideous way to live. By the time bobby was killed, jackie was existing in a trance. She found security in a second marriage. After his passing she moved to new york, and she says this time with the help of a psychiatrist, she started gaining control of her fears and life. Somebody asked her what would you say was your greatest accomplishment, and i think he expected her to say, paris or renovating the white house or Something Like that, and without hesitation, she said i kept my sanity. Obviously the events of that day really destroyed her world. I dont think that is surprising at all, but the details in the book, theres certainly a lot more known about her as well. I am not putting the book down at all, but it should not be shocking at all to anybody that she was in post Traumatic Stress for years after that, not only the assassination of her husband, but then Bobby Kennedy as well. You can read the book that will be released october 25th. You can find an exert on our website. We have a party going on, even though there is no music. There is music always in their heads. Good to see you. You guys are taking over the twitter account and instagram for the today show . Yes, we are. We just started. Yeah, behind the scenes. Already, are you ready for this . They have a huge, big, major i wish we had a drum roll announcement. Johnny, do you want to were pregnant we have a baby gift for you no, no babies. We have a bigger announcement.

We were so excited in sochi and how things went for us, and getting to enjoy our sport every day and now that we have this amazing opportunity we are completely honored and so proud.

He kept saying get me a shoe shot. This guy will perform live for us, but first your local news. Youre watching today in the bay. Good morning, its 8 26 right now. Im kris sanchez. New this morning, the Santa Clara County coroner is trying to identify a body that was found at Republic Services recycling facility in milpitas. Investigators have not released any other information, like if it was a man or woman, or if they consider the death suspicious at this point. Also, firefighters still battling that huge fire thats been burning in gilroy for hours this morning. This is a live look at the chopper, where there once was rabbit flames, now lots of smoke and charred land. You can see crews are making progress. Its burned more than 10,000 square feet and destroyed a barn. We know one road was closed earlier this morning, but hows it looking now . You can see from the shot, that smoke rising up as the sun came up, that was a concern, but if we look at our maps right now, we still have the closure off ferguson there, where the fire is smoldering right now. The smoke is not causing as much of a distraction, because things are much calmer right now. 152 and 101 are okay through the area. The greater bay area is very slow.

And were start iing with an overhaul of your wallet. Im sort of embarrassed because i can see my purse in front of me. But, anyway, if your purse is like mine, its busting at the seams, sharon epperson, jen fallick. Good morning. I went away to summer camp with something smaller than this. What about this . Let me tell you what this says to me about your wallet and your finances. Messy wallet, overstuffed like this, busy life. Its not that overstuffed. Not that overstuffed . Maybe it also says you dont really want to deal with these money issues. Can i tell you what i just noticed . Wait a minute. What is that . A Candy Wrapper . No, a dog bag for blake. Whose is this . Thats mine. Streamlined. That is annoying. I dont carry cash in that, just a couple cards and i. D. And thats all you really need. Thats how you need to streamline your wallet. Better than yours. Take out all those receipts. What should you take out . You might need some pharmacy that you went for medical expenses, keep it for tax purposes, put it in a filing system. You dont need lip gloss, an extra key. You definitely dont need a passport or Social Security card. Youll lose that. So what form of i. D. Should you have in your wallet . Drivers license or photo i. D. Health insurance card as well but you dont need Something Like a passport, which is going to really lure identity thieves. This is kind of good, though, for the receipts. I would never use anything like that, but it has a nice filing system. Its a good idea, right . Maybe you could start. Put that in there and keep that. Every couple of months you purge that. Credit cards, how many . Two. One credit card really. One debit card, one credit card. Maybe you have two credit cards in case one doesnt work. Thats all you need, put it here in a slimmer, sleeker wallet. Not a big, overstuffed wallet. Sometimes when you go to a car they give you a good deal for a credit card. So you have a lot of the store cards. Rate on the store cards is so much more than a general purpose card. 23 interest, on average. Youre going to pay a lot more if you carry that balance on that credit card. Want to move on . Im bringing this down to jen for the first segment because its so heavy. Its a workout in itself. When you have a purse thats full of things you just say unload basically, yeah . Unload. Take an inventory. I get t you like having things with you. We live out of our purse. Its okay to have stuff. Just keep it organized. These are the contents of a typical bag, makeup, change, everything. Get some ziplocs, clear packages so youre accountable. Oh, wait. Let me show you something. Ziploc. Great. Perfect. Is that for the dog also . Dont get them confused. That wouldnt be good. Put labels on them. Makeup and garbage. Make a little diy garbage. So much in your bag is wrappers and things when you dont have a trash can around, bandaid container, advil container. What about that . Perfect. No, no, this is my coffee mate. When its empty, make it into your purse trash can. Clothes pins are drat to keep your cords from getting all tangled up. Easy, magnetic ones. Get rid of the big, clunky wallet. Ive been using this for years and i love it. 30. Put your phone in here. Even a lip gloss. Stick a bracelet on it. If you really want to stay organized get a bag that comes with everything that you need to stay organized. Other cool little gadgets, if you ever miss a call because your phone buried at the bottom of that bag, this is blue tooth enabled. When your phone rings, it lights up so you always know. Love that.

Back now at 8 40 with todays money. And this morning, how to make it through retirement. Surveys show most americans worry about coming up short during their fwoelden years. We want to arm you with the strategies youll need to live comfortably. Tamron is standing by with questions from viewers down in the orange room. Ladies, good morning. Lets start with you. Okay. Good news, bad news. Were living longer. We are living longer. New numbers just this week. You can expect a couple of decades in retirement, which means its not enough to just say that you need a plan for after. Bad news is you need more money. You have always said start early. Be aggressive. Save as much as you can. You also want people to find a way to get a paycheck during retirement. Right. And were going to start over here with Social Security. So, people need a Social Security strategy. If you take Social Security as soon as youre able at age 62, youre missing out on 180,000 if youre single, 300,000 if youre a couple. Wait until you are 70 years old if youre single. And if youre married wait until the higher earner is 70 years old. Annuities. People think theyre for rich people. What is an annuity. You take a sum of money and use it to essentially buy yourself a paycheck. Annuity payouts go up as Interest Rates go down and as you get older. Its a really good idea to take a sum of money as you retire, use it to cover your fixed expenses and annuitize over time. Lets move over here. Sure. The strategy you want people to remember, withdraw as little money as you can to keep them intact but also to allow them to keep growing. Right. In the early years of retirement especially, you want to keep those withdrawals to about threeish percent. We were relying on this 4 rule that said you could pull out 4 of your money and it would last 30 years. Didnt work when the market dropped. You still have to make sure you still have money in stocks as you are through retirement. You mention that. You mention the markets. A lot of experts tell you, you get close to retirement age, you start to run away from the stock market to reduce your exposure to risk. You want people to think a little differently. Right. Money that you need to spend in the first five years or the next five years should not be in the market. But beyond that, retirement is still a long term. Were talking about 20 years, 30 years. That means you need exposure to stocks. Take 100. Subtract your age. Thats about the percentage that you want to stock. So take 100 minus 44, 54 of your money should be in stock . Yes. My retirement dream is to be able to stop working early enough to enjoy life, travel and help family. Again, im sure thats so relatable to a lot of people. Jean, whats the advice . I hear the word early and i think save more, save more, save more. Make sure you are fully funding your 401 k . If youre not working and you have a spouse in the workforce, you can make a full ira contribution. Tamron, Something Else . One more here from princess. She wants to live it out in the florida keys in her camper, enjoying life, as she put it, on the rock. Get a plan. Jean, whats the plan . Sounds great. Whatever youre going to live in, in retirement, i want you to pay it off before you retire. Pay off the mortgage on that camper or your house or wherever you are. It will make life in retirement a lot easier. Thats it, tamron . Thats it. Im sure more are coming in. Please use the get a plan. Tamron, thanks very much. Live longer, you need more cash. Jean chatzky, thank you very much. My pleasure. Up next, gavin announcer the toyota Concert Series on today brought to you by toyota.

The folks who live not far from Milpitas Christian school are told to boil any water they use for drinking or cooking, because their water tested positive for e. Coli.

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. And welcome to today on a wet wednesday morning, october 22nd, 2014. Some fine folks hanging around still. We appreciate them sticking around. Im Natalie Morales with al roker, tamron hall. Willie on assignment, cool assignment. We cant tell you. Top secret. We could but we would have to kill you. Apparently weve all been pouring orange juice the wrong way. Oh he will show us how we should be doing it, coming up in a little bit. Crazy video out of pennsylvania. And its a car crash caught on tape. Right. And you see there the two delivery men were recording this car in front of them driving erratically. They say they were recording it because they were thinking it was an accident waiting to happen which, sure enough they were trying to get the license plate number on oh and thats when you see they were actually involved in a crash there as well. Fortunately, everybody okay. But it begs the question, what do you do when you see that situation unfolding before your eyes . I mean, two guys in the car. One of them is recording. Its safe. Hes not driving and recording as its going on. Do you call 911. Thats what you do. Call 911 immediately. Dont take the time to record. Dont try to record. Call 911. Right. The man who took the video said they were just trying to get the license plate first so they could call and report it because they were afraid the car was going to get too far away. All you have to do is give the road youre on, mile marker youre at and the police will do the rest. Thats why al roker is so smart. Hes brilliant. Thats what you do. I wouldnt say that. But i think thats what you do. Dont spend time recording. And then you put yourself in danger. Even though maybe he wasnt the guy driving the vehicle. No, but you saw all of a sudden that second vehicle that gets hit comes right at them. Theyre so busy taping. Right. And he continued to tape. And they did get out of the car and went over to check the drivers. Boom. Look at that. Nobody injured, thank goodness. Surprisingly no one injured. It looks like they get hit, too, with that second car. Yeah, they do. They did. It crossed right in front of them and they spun out. Could have been far worse. Call police and let them handle it. Especially this time of year, slick roads. Need to be so careful out there. Marriage ultimatum. Is it ever okay to look at your significant other and say its time . Pony up. Put a ring on it. Matthew mcconaughey said thats exactly what his beautiful wife, camilla had, to do to get him to tie the knot. He told gq, i had to get to the point where i saw it as more than just the thing to do. I wanted to really want to do it. I didnt want it to be a destination. The thought is were on the adventure together and, look, some of it had to do with her putting it on me. She says apparently to him, come on, big boy, mr. Easy going, well get to it when we get to it. She didnt quite use that phraseology. Right. Used something a little more earthy. She basically said get off the pot. And he did it. They had two children already. They now have a third. Beautiful family. But without that extra push from her, apparently he wouldnt have done it. What do you think as a man . Look, i think look, this is a great country. Freedom of speech. Your significant other wants you to do something, they need to tell you. You dont necessarily have to do it. But this way you know how important it is. Obviously they knew they were in a committed relationship. They were having children together. I think theres no question in their minds they were already married. Right. But you just have to have that piece of paper. It was a deal breaker, though. She said this is a deal breaker. Hes very laid back. She knows him, obviously, better than anyone else. You should let people know where you stand. Sometimes there is that i know when joe and i were basically almost living together, you know, it got to the point where it was like, okay. Did you say anything . When is it going to happen . Yeah, i put a little pressure on him. All right, ive been dating you for like three years now, were practically living together so come on, lets go tick, tick, tick. And i knew i wanted to be with him and he knew he wanted to be with me. A little bit of a nudge. We need a little help. This is cool. He keeps a diary. I love this. Or a journal. Do guys say diary or journal . He said diary. Its something ive wanted to do and i havent. Im going to start doing that. You should. Thats a great idea. Since the third grade i kept a diary. Once my dad found the diary, but thankfully, there was nothing in there, i dont think, that was too scary. Third grade. Well, you never know. I recently gave a diary to a fellow thats hanging around my life and he keeps it ooh, hanging around her life. Im like matthew mckconaughe. Hanging around my life, give me the Matthew Mcconaughey talk in a minute. Have you thought about giving him some sort of ultimatum . Ultimatum . Stop hanging and start doing . Its probably the other way around. Im expressed my phobia of marriage. My parents had a beautiful, beautiful marriage. I just i mean, the love they shared and respect is tremendous. Ive had this fear that, you know, i will fail at it. And i just maybe im a little time to get over that fear, girl. Yeah. Youve been so unsuccessful at Everything Else youve done. We have fears. Everyone, im sure absolutely. Going in. The fear of pouring orange juice the incorrect way. Yes. How do you pour orange juice . Open the bottle. First of all, do you like pulp . I dont like pulp. Do you want to switch . No pulp. Ill take your pulp. Now i spilled everywhere. There you go. You pour it. Just like that. So thats wrong . Supposedly. Because then you it spills all over. I think if youre careful about it. Allegedly, according to some Youtube Video thats gone viral from a russian guy, youre supposed to start back here. What . Back here. Then it dribbles over i dont believe it. Then you have a messy lid and it gets all over. I dont quite understand it. I think you pour the way you guys did. Maybe they dont have these kind of cap. Youre supposed to hold the cardboard down, im told. This is when youre trying to impress the kids at breakfast. Still, thats a mess. Oh, no, it doesnt touch. Whats the difference in the way we supposedly, it flows and just do you feel that much smarter now for learning this very useful tip . Youre going to feel smarter after this. This is a would you wednesday. Ooh. Gather round your Television Sets at home. Buzz feed has a list of things were posing them to you. Wear wet socks the rest of your life or wash your hair once a year. No brainer for me. Thats not fair. I would say wet socks. Nobody has to see my socks. But you feel it. Your shoes are a mess. Eww.

His big influence came at the age of 15 when he saw the great billy joel perform. Who could imagine he would open for the legendary singer. Finest hour the best of gavin degraw. Good to see you. Good to see you. I love this table. Its very transparent, literally. Want to answer the question we asked which tv show the song i dont wanna be, malcolm in the middle, One Tree Hill, buffy the Vampire Slayer, dr. Google says One Tree Hill. I have no idea. No, it was One Tree Hill. I dont know, man. You are such a classical joker. Are you serious . No, im not. I was just saying that. And you also requested to get the end seat because you wanted to show the ladies im the new guy here, can i get the leg chair . Then he told me i have to cross this way versus the other way because you didnt like my hamstrings, which i thought was a little weird. I said do you have good legs and you said . I have the legs of fred flintstone. Yabbadabbadoo. Thats not what we heard. Oh you have good hamstrings. Talking about ham this morning. Thats right. Were here to talk about your music. Everybody is hungry here. Billy joel inspired you. Who else inspires you . I grew up on that era of music, billy joel, elton john, stevie wonder, piano players, singers. Honestly, my parents generation of music for some reason. A lot of sipsychadelic rock. I grew up near woodstock. I grew up around a lot of that type of music. You really get into the song, too. I do. Do you channel any of those performers . I dont know. Honestly, im so busy trying to remember the words. There will be no channeling. Im channeling lyrics. Words, im thinking to myself, you know, dont mess this up. You know, youre on tv. Has that happened to you . Have you forgotten . Only all the time. But other than that, its usually pretty okay. This is like being in the movie liar liar. We dont know whats true anymore from you. What we do know is true is that a lot of your lyrics inspired by life, journey talk to us a little bit when youre writing and thinking about what part of your life to share in your music. Thats a good question. My first hit, i dont wanna be was very autobiographical. I was thinking, you know, how do i let people know who i am as well as being the songwriter, you know . So much of songwriting isnt necessarily just writing a song for the sake of it sounding good, but also you want to tell your story to your audience, get an idea of the window of who you actually are as a person, you know, overall. Thats one of the challenges when youre songwriting, trying to make that connection. And hopefully it works. Once in a while, you get one in. It works. Youre going to hang around and do weather with me. Only if you let me. Absolutely. In shorts, though. The finest hour the best of gavin degraw. And hes going to sing that in the 10 00 hour.

A soldier was shot outside the war memorial there, his condition currently unknown. There were also shots fired inside the Parliament Building as police searched for a gunman or gunmen. Nbcs senior justice correspondent Pete Williams is in washington. Pete, what more can you tell me about the shooting . And also put in the context, a heightened state of concern in canada over the past couple of days. Right. The only people we know of that were shot were the soldier at the war memorial and the gunman inside the Parliament Building. Those are the only two places that weve got confirmed reports that shots are fired however, authorities are searching for the possibility of as many as two other gunmen according to eyewitnesss that could be in the area. A nearby Shopping Center has been placed on lockdown but authority there is tell us no shots were fired there. We dont know the condition of either the soldier or the gunman in the Parliament Building. But there has been increased concern about isisinspired terrorism in canada and quietly authorities raised the terror alert level this weekend. Pete williams in washington. Pete, thank you very much.

It turns out pain from years back are not only likely to reappear later in life but can cause more damage if you ignore them. Here to help from family circumstan circle magazine and from langone medical center. How often do old injuries tend to reappear . We thought it was an important topic to hit on. Look, injuries impact everyone. Im sure we could go around this circle right now and talk about an injury that weve had to struggle with in the past. When it happens to you, it is the most important thing in the world. All you want to do is get better. Once you get past it, you tend to kind of forget about t as were talking about today, these injuries are gone. But they shouldnt be forgotten. They can sneak up on you and can come back to you. There are three things i really want people to remember as we go over everything today. One, dont ignore an injury. Act on it. When you get that signal of pain from your body, thats impetus to do something about t a small tear can become a big tear. Two, see the proper authorities. Come up with an action plan. Three, dont forget about it. Make sure your body stays strong in the future so that injury doesnt come back to you in the future. Herniated disks. Well talk about low back pain, second most common reason people visit the doctor. It comes in many different shapes and sizes. Were talking about a herniated disk, otherwise known as a slipped disk, sciatica. What happens here, your lumbar vertebrae, the bones in the lower vertebral spine. This little cushion right here is actually the disk. A herniated disk happens when the outer ring of this disk becomes torn and the disk material can actually slip through, hit on the exiting nerve and cause shooting pain down the leg. Thats the classic symptom of a herniated disk. That is low back pain radiates to the buttock. Shoots down the leg. How do you treat it . It is the worst. Warning signals, numbness, bowel or bladder problems. Management can include a topical or oral antiinflammatory, pain patches like lydoderm. You go for an epidural. A lot of moms it happened to me after picking up my toddler. Right. Good question, natalie. Before the age of 40, its some inciting thing. It can be a heavy sneeze, cough or a twist or lifting or a fall. As one gets older, there can be just degenerative tears of that outer ring and it can happen out of the blue. A lot of people remember a trauma, a lot of people dont. I had a rotator cuff. I ignored it. It got worse and worse to the point where the three tendons tore and my biceps detached. And then you needed surgery at this point . Right. Rotator cuff, very popular word. Sort of in the nomenclature. Theyre a group of tendons that sit with the cuff and with the deltoid are responsible for all the ranges of motion of the shoulder. Pain with a certain maneuver. Oh, when i try to attach my bra or brush my hair, it hurts. What actually a rotator cuff injury is actually tearing of the rotator cuff tendons, thats tendonitis. Small tears can be managed conservatively, physical therapy. Full tear will require surgery otherwise youll lose complete function of the shoulder. And the knee, the acl. Common injury as well. Extremely common injury. Acl or anterior cruciate ligament is basically stabilizing your knee. A lot of people hear that popping sound when they actually have a tear. Popping pain. And pain, unfortunately. Unfortunately. And that is an injury that can come back and haunt you. It can come back as arthritis. You want to make sure youre strengthening that part of your knee.

Its a riff on a classic french salad but the kale modernizes it. Im going to crack and egg and poach an egg. A lot of people are intimidated by it. I used to be. Not anymore. Not anymore. Here is a pot of simmering water. You dont want boiling water. Youre going to slowly lower the egg into the simmering water like this and then youre going to create a whirlpool by circling a spoon around the circumference of the pot. Thats going to coddle the egg. Baby kale is similar to normal kale. Same family but its not as hard to cut, to eat. More tender . More tender. Same flavor, same health benefits. Im going to do one apple, julienned. Granny smith. Any apple . You could, but i like the tartness. Its giada de laurentiis. Very big compliment.

Andy lopez is being remembered today one year after being shot and killed by a sheriffs deputy who mistook lopezs toy gun as an ak47.

Fremont police are revving up their efforts to deter crime by using privately owned surveillance cameras in peoples homes and businesses. They are holding a workshop to teach people how to install cameras at their homes. Private surveillance cameras like the one that caught this package thief were part of the reason for a recent slight decrease in burglaries. Lets get a look outside right now with meteorologist rob mayeda. 70s in the afternoon, mid 70s downtown san jose. Close to 70 San Francisco. 73 in oakland. Mid 70s out towards the trivalley and low 70s in the north bay. High clouds at times with the rain staying off to the north, but during the day tomorrow, thats going to change as we see the first chance of rain chances ahead dropping into the north bay for your thursday and more for the central and south bay into friday night and saturday. Watching your wednesday morning commute now, lets get another update with mike. All right, things are calming down for our wednesday commute. Cash payers waiting at the toll plaza. Were talking about upper east drive, oakland recovering through downtown. Speeds are improving greatly, but still slow off the Castro Valley wide for north 238. Both sides of the san mateo and dunbarton bridges slowly, but very slow south from san mateo southbound to 280. Thats unusual. No incidents reported, although on the northbound side we had a crash earlier in the day that might be a distraction. The south bay starts to speed up a bit. Sam, back to you. Some folks still grinding out that commute. 9 58 right now on your wednesday. Well be back in 25 minutes. See you then. From nbc news, this is today with Kathie Lee Gifford and hoda kotb. Live from studio 1 a in rockefeller plaza. Hello everybod. Welcome to wines day wednesday. Had to come back for wines day wednesday. How was florida . We got there thursday evening. We were celebrating our 28th wedding anniversary so you are thinking this is ridiculous how fast this has gone. That was a year ago. That is the one you came to the house. We had a place there for years where we raised the kids and it is so foculksy and theres a disease where the minute you get off the plane and the air is different. And you relax. You chilled . We chilled. There is the first sunset when we got there. Its just talk about a get away place. Your timing was great because palm beach just got pounded with tons of rain. We missed that. It was fun. Anytime you can get away from your daily grind and not that youre a grind, hoda, but your daily schedule. You know what im saying. It is a matter of speech. You dont have to get up as early and a plan your day and see friends and drink a little stuff. Even though it is rainy on the coast andgavin degraw. Bobbie thomas with creative costtumes that you do yourself. It is a production. There is our friend. What a great way to dress up that baby bump. Wednesday wines day for hodas words of wisdom. Dont promise when youre happy, dont reply when youre angry and dont decide when you are sad. Who was it . Anon. She is the best. My ms. Hody was up to mischief. Im reading page six. Hoda returning to svu. I only had one line. It was hard to blow it but i practiced it over and over. We do this every day and somehow i get i feel like i dont want to blow that. This its fine. Its pressure. It is a whole other thing. Theres a whole bunch of people sitting in the dark watching you do it, listening you do it. We have our people here but they dont give a rip. They are playing pool. On the phone. Joanne is calling her baby sitter. Weird things going on at all times. But there time is money, baby. And they dont like it when you dont take it seriously and you dont hit your marks and dont say your lines. We killed a lot of television shows, you and i personally. I am scared about it. That one will air november 19. I smell an emmy. This was a crazy day because there was a picture that has a lot of people talking. Some people saw this photo for the first time and didnt recognize who it was. This is renee zelweger. She made an appearance at an event in Beverly Hills. People are talking about what is different. She claims the discussion about how different her face is silly. She is glad people think she looks differently. She did make some comments. She says that she is living a different happy more fulfilling life and thrilled that perhaps it shows. She says in the past she took on a schedule that didnt allow her to take care of herself and said i kept running until i was decompleted. I was aware of the chaos and chose different things. Here is the thing. She is damned if she does and damned if she doesnt. The trouble with being in the public eye is that we all age a day at a time but most people you can age privately in your own home. Everybody has something to say about everything in our world today. I think she looks beautiful. If we all say we are so for feminism which is a womans choice to do what she wants to do with her body . What if she wants to go to the spa or get her eyes done, im not saying she has had these things done, but that is her prerogative. In hollywood to be employed you have to look a certain way and everyone is trying to look a little bit younger. If she did it you sort of understand why. Whoever she went to if she did i think she looks beautiful. You look at somebody like a maggie smith, meryl streep, those kinds of women who i dont think have had anything done. They get the roles of a lifetime because they have let themselves age. Maggie smith couldnt do what she does if she doesnt look like craggy maggie. I think the reason it is so jarring is because it is her eyes. You notice the tear drop eyes. Because you see such a difference in shape. She is 45 years old. I think she is lovely. Whatever she did it is her own business. Even though we spent ten minutes talking about it. Bli blake lively looked beautiful. That is her baby bump. She looked so joyful in that picture. Another one from the other night that is more glamorous. Look at those two. Dont they look happy and in love . Those two. We made a big to do about Barbara Walters retiring. We went to her Good Bye Party but we both agreed we didnt think she was going to retire. She is coming back to do her most fascinating people of 2014 special.

The question is, these are the ones that you hang oef your stove in your kitchen that probably dont get washed all of the piem. You walk by every now and then and wipe your hands on it. How dirty do you think these are. So they did a study and they found that 90 are covered in bacteri bacteri bacteria. E. Coli was found on a quarter of the towels. What does that say about your family . Maybe its your kids who are reaching it. Still. Experts say if you need to dry your dishes with your towels, you need to dry your towels after every use. After every use . Thats what they say. Why dont you just use paper towels. Dont trees have to die for paper towels. But then you make some new ones out of the old ones. Or dip them in dluted bleach and hang them to dry because nothing looks better than that. That was researchers from the university.

Hersheys is mine, yours, our chocolate. Its time to ask lou about pesky problems around the house you wish you could fix yourself. You asked and he is answering from repairing broken grout to staining a deck. All you need is help from lou. Lets get started with one of our people who wrote in. Jack from illinois asks this. I need to clean the stain on my deck. Is fall a good time to do this and what temperatures should be the time to avoid. Fall is a great time to do the deck because temperatures are cooler. Typically we dont get a ton of rain. The idea behind this is when it is cooler outside whether you choose an oil based stain or latex base stain the slower it cures or dries the better it holds. You are going to have a long winter ahead which will maybe damage it wouldnt it be better to maybe wait until spring . No matter what you will get to winter the following year. You need to pressure wash and sand the deck. Nobody wants to do that. I know. This is the rustolium 10 x. This is one of my favorite oil stains. What i like about this, this is my own opinion about penofin, you look at red wood like this. It will gray over time. This is when the stain. Look how beautiful it looks. It will stay how long . It will last probably a good five years. I say this makes wood happy when you put it down there because it gets absorbed in there. It is a rose wood oil based product. Brian from chicago writes this. I have cracked and chipped grout in the shower. Do i need to regrout the entire shower . Not sealer but grout and or caulking. You need to clean it up and then you can buy premixed grout. It does come in different colors. The are samples you can get or cards to bring home to match. The vast majority of it us are using white grout. Put it in there and you dont need to do anything further than this. Once you fill the gaps take a damp rag and wipe it away. Not one from your kitchen. Not one from your kitchen. Stay out of there overnight and let it dry and that is it. Are these your glasses . Those are my glasses. We are building a new house, should i use granite or quartz counter tops . Yes. This is corean counter tops which i love. Very durable. This is a quartz material which is amazing because they have changed the look.

That blaze is mostly knocked out now you see from the video right here. Video taken within the last hour from our helicopter. The owner told us hes had a couple runins with Homeless People recently, including last night. You can see how wide spread the fire was. It burned through 10,000 square feet. Most the stuff that burned was mainly junk. The fire started just before 5 00 this morning, bright orange flames lighting up the sky. Investigatorings do not know how the fire started, but they say it did begin in a pile of pallets, wood pallets, and spread to a nearby barn. Fortunate nobody was injured in that.
