Know you need more ways to show your disapproval on social media today, wednesday, september 16th, 2015. Announcer from nbc news, this is today with matt lauer and Savannah Guthrie live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. And good morning. Welcome to today on a wednesday morning. Probably the last guy to ask about facebook, but apparently this is a new way to show a wider range of emotions. Yeah, why is there only the like button when people post something thats kind of sad or poignant it feels awkward to press like so maybe there should be an alternative, a dislike button. Socalled. Exactly im longing for the old days of sideways smiley face and frown face but well get into that a little bit. Our top story, politics. The second republican president ial debate hours away. The site this time, the reagan president ial library in california and the man to beat remains donald trump. Were going to talk to the head of the Republican Party in just a moment, but first nbcs National Correspondent Peter Alexander is there. Peter, good morning. Reporter hey, savannah, good morning to you. The spotlight will once again shine brightly on donald trump, but not just on him exclusively. Also on his challengers like ben carson and Carly Fiorina on the debate stage for the first time with the top ten, now top 11 this time around. Its also a crucial moment for those folks who have plummeted in the polls, jeb bush and scott walker. With only so many dollars from donors available, a bad performance from a candidate tonight could signal the end of the road. Would you come over and speak. Im here for a certain reason. Reporter breaking out the big guns ahead of tonights Republican Debate frontrunner donald trump revved up supporters on the uss iowa in los angeles delivering a speech heavy on promises and light on specifics. Were going to come out with some plans in a very short time. Were going to be building up our military. Reporter earlier predicting a barrage of attacks from his republican rivals. You know, they are all coming after me is what i hear, and whatever tupac shakur. Reporter the showdown is being touted as a heavyweight bout. Rand paul sparred with trump at the first round and appears poised to do it again saying i think he deserves both barrels. I want to make sure everyone in the whole country knows hes a fake conservative. Still, trumps biggest challenge may come from the other republican outsiders with polls showing barson closing in and Carly Fiorina gaining ground as jeb bush falls behind. The superpac supporting bush out with a new online ad saying trump is in a very dark place. The American Dream is dead. Reporter looking to revive his own campaign, bush just released this bilingwall ad. Declaring hispanics an integral part of the American Dream. Bushs mexicanborn wife columba who rarely speaks publicly speaks out. We have celebrations with the family. We keep our traditions. You know, at the end its just that, you know, faith, friends and family. Reporter and in another sign he may be nearing a run, Vice President joe biden for the first time attacked trump directly at a reception honoring hispanics. Trump and that stuff youre hearing on the other team and not just this isnt about democrat republican. Its about a sick message. Reporter a lot at stake for these republicans tonight. Of course, debate prep during the day and how will some that have relax for john kasich, a trip to the gym. Marco rubio will enjoy some time with his wife and daughters and Carly Fiorinas camp, matt and savannah, says she needs an iphone and some solitaire and she will be fine. Well be watching. Reince priebus is the chairman of the Republican National committee. Good to see you, good morning. We have apparently lost our signal to mr. Priebus. Well get him back in just a second. Got Nicolle Wallace here, a former republican strategist and worked for president george w. Bush as his communications director. Good morning. Good morning. As we await mr. Priebus, if youre in his shoes and thinking im the head of the Republican Party and this is my bunch and donald trump is blowing away the competition. Yeah. Do you think the mission tonight for any candidate not named trump is go after trump . Well, i think they all have to run their race and do whats comfortable for them. I think that whats interesting to me is the only two humans that have laid a glove on donald trump are Carly Fiorina with her attack, her counterpunch to him was tougher than any of trumps counterpunch from anybody in the media or look at that and he said look at that face and she put up a great ad with all the beautiful faces and the two sons of Ronald Reagan saying we know Ronald Reagan and donald trump you are not Ronald Reagan. So far no one on stage has laid a glove. This is round two. The next round doesnt come for five or six weeks. Thats an efernt in politics, and some of these campaigns will wither on the vine in that time. Who is tonight do or die for . I think tonight, and i agree with you, this is the last twotiered debate night for the republicans. I think next time they will all be able to fit on one stage but i think tonight is do or die for the establishment wolf pack, if you will, the group of former governors, who are really struggling when compared as a group to Carly Fiorina, ben carson and donald trump who are viewed as outsiders. Do you at this point feel like theres a decent chance that donald trump could actually be the republican nominee, that he could emerge from this process a winner . Listenings ive said for a long time that republican primaries are Better Television than the kardashians and im going to stick by that predicti prediction. This is going to be a roller coaster. This is going to be exciting. Anything can happen. At the end of the day though for the same reasons that the reagans son that donald trump will not inherit the mantle of Ronald Reagan, the strains of narcissim, if you will, making it all about himself and talking about how great he is not where i think the republican primary voters could land. Could they, absolutely but i dont think it will happen. Have you figured out the dynamic, you look at the polling, three candidates with no experience in politics or governing anything. Right. No time in congress or in governors offices as you just mentioned. Right. And those tree candidates, trump, carson and fiorina, have 54 of the total support. Why is that . I think that what trump has tapped into perfectly and what carson and fiorina are starting to talk about more is the abject disgust with politics as usual in washington, and it is it is at the other folks peril to fail to hear that. I think what trumps doing perfectly is listening to the sentiment, but at the end of the day we dont always vote for the person that echoes our anger. We vote for the person that channels our hopes for future and so far trump is not that guy. Nicole wall air, thank you so much. Trying to get our signal up with chairman priebus, get back to, if we can. Good to have you. Meantime, another did you have day on tap for crews out west fighting mass fwildfires in california and dealing with the ah math of deadly flooding in utah. 16 People Killed and four others still missing. Two reports beginning with nbcs ron mott. Ron, good morning to you. Reporter matt, good morning to you. The death toll from these flash floods has left this region in a state of shock, and the aftermath here is pretty eyeopening. Take a look at the scene behind me, this white car crushed, wedged into between mountains of muddy debris and were learning this morning just a bit more about some of those who were killed. Oh, that van. Oh, theres two vehicles. Reporter shortly after one of three survivors fled this scary scene in search of help as floodwaters threatened. There goes the van. Oh, my goodness. Oh, dear. It went over the thing. Oh, no. Reporter the rapids moved in. Oh, no. Reporter sweeping at least a dozen of one family to their deaths, Three Sisters and their children, one still missing this morning and feared lost as well. My name is Joseph Jessup and this here is my son Joseph Jessup. My family and my Friends Family were swept away in this flash flood. Reporter Joseph Jessup, the eldest son of one of the mothers, couldnt reach help in time to save his family. According to distant relatives estranged from the polygamist second once controlled by warren jeffs serving a life sentence for sexual assault. We trust in him to heal our wounded heart at this time. I would not like to take any questions at this time. Thank you. Reporter Officials Say the Three Sisters, naomi, della and josephine, seen if these family portraits, were stopped short of the initial flood when waters engulfed them from behind. Many in this closeknit religious Community Stood watch throughout the day as cleanup crews cleared much degreeclogged road and rescuers continue to look for the last missing person. Utah governor gary herbert took to twitter to express his sorrow over dual tragedies including four people found dead at nearby Zion National park where three remaund up accounted for into the night and they were warned to be mindful of flooding threats. Be careful. This area does flash flood and it doesnt take that much. Reporter 25 members of the Utah National guard have been called in to help, and, unfortunately, for a Third Straight day the weather is going to be a factor. Thunderstorms again in the forecast. Matt, savannah, back to you. All right, ron mott. Ron, thank you very much. Now to the wildfire raging north of San Francisco threatening thousands of homes there. Nbcs National Correspondent Miguel Almaguer is on the scene again for us this morning. Miguel, whats the latest. Reporter savannah, good morning. Here in the mountains there arent many roads in or out of this community. We were on one when we hit smoke, then flames. We hunkered down with firefighters in a safety zone when this blaze just exploded. This is the eye of a firestorm, a blow torch whipping in multiple directions. On our way home on the only way out this is what we found. You could hear the fury. And feel the intensity. Crews tell us these flames are shooting at 40, 50 miles an hour in some places, and even here in the vehicle you can feel the heat. We were with firefighters when the wave of flames exploding how quickly can this fire take off and jump from hill to hill . In a matter of minutes. Reporter it looked like a furnace and felt like an oven. Crews rolled into the mouth of the infern ore as we retreated to their safety zone. Could you see this blaze was out of control, and could you hear this monster feeding on these droughtstricken mountains. Sounds like that sucking sound that people describe as a jet plane. Reporter when the fire torches in these trees, the immediate concern isnt necessarily the flames which are intense. Its the embers. They can travel for miles. Those embers and hot ash sent crews scrambling. A vehicle catching fire. One firefighter called this biblical, conditions few will ever see. Because we were on a twolane road with experienced firefighters, danger was as minimal as it can be in a hot zone like this. Fortunately there were no homes in the area. Ultimately this blaze ran into an area that had burned just a few years ago so it burned itself out. Savannah. Incredible to see. Miguel almaguer, thank you so much. Natalie joins us now with some new steps to deal with an ongoing crisis in europe. Yeah, guys. Its sad news. Hungary taking even more extreme measures to keep the migrants out of the country with a new razor wiretopped fence now in place. Police rounded up far fewer people on its side of the serbian border on tuesday. Nbcs chief Foreign Correspondent rich engel is in hungary with the latest on the humanitarian crisis. Richard, good morning. Reporter good morning, natalie. Yesterday there were dozens of people who were arrested while trying to cross this fence. Today hardly any simply because they are not getting through. The fence is holding. It is being patrolled 24 hours a day by police and by soldiers. Some people are backed up in serbia which is right on the other side of this fence, but already they are looking for new routes to sweden and germany. They are trying to go around hungary, and the new routes that are emerging through croatia and a land route that goes between turkey and greece. So this country, hungary, has dammed this river of migrants, and like a river they are finding a ways around it. Natalie . All right. Richard engel in hungary for us. Thank you, richard. All eyes will be on the Federal Reserve today, and the big question will it or wont it raise Interest Rates for the first time in nine years . The fed meeting today and tomorrow, and now that the job market is considered essentially recovered, many economists say it is time to start edging from a record low near zero towards normal rates. Others argue though that many other factors such as chinas sputtering economy raised some serious concerns. A decision will be announced thursday. Salmonellatainted cucumbers imported from mexico have now sickened at least 418 people in 31 states. Health Officials Say the outbreak of foodborne illness has sent 91 people to hospitals and caused two deaths. Most people recover without treatment, but the illness can be serious for young children, the elderly and people with compromised immune systems. Some frightening moments in new jersey on tuesday when a stunt almost went terribly wrong. Escape artist spencer horseman was attempting to get out of a waterfilled plexiglass box during a promotional event for an upcoming show with chrissagel, but after being underwater for about two and a half minutes he couldnt get that final lock open so rescuers saw him struggling and lowered the box and were able to pull him out. He was taken to the hospital. His condition is unknown but he was responsive at the time. Now, you may recall this isnt the first time that horseman has failed to complete the stunt. Back in june he wasnt able to free himself at the foxwood casino in connecticut and lost consciousness for some time and had to be freed by stage hands. A home run usually cause for some celebration, sometimes fireworks when a player sends one over the fence, but you dont typically see fireworks when the other team hits one, right . That is until tuesday night in cleveland. Take a look. Into the corner and alex rios has his second home run of the trip. Kansas citys alex rios hitting that solo shot home run and the man in charge of the fireworks in cleveland had an itchy trigger finger and send or the pyrotechnics display and the hometown crowd started booing and the poor fireworks guy clearly embarrassed by the whole situation hiding his face with his hat. You know, what hes going to love living in kansas city, he really is. Beautiful at this time of year. Meanwhile, the indians, not so happy. You had one job. Natalie, thank you very much. Dylan is here. Looks like an umbrella day for some of our friends down in florida. In florida, yes, where it has been an umbrella day which seems like for the past several weeks. Its eastern florida that is still under a drought, so its eastern florida thats actually going to get most of the rain. Weve got a combination of lowlevel moisture streaming in off the atlantic, upper level winds streaming in off the gulf of mexico and that combination means pockets of heavier rain for the next several day and we do have an area of High Pressure sitting off to the north. Part of the reason why the rest of the country is enjoying some pretty nice weather. This is going to keep all of these showers and storms down across florida, and we could end up with perhaps some flash flooding within some of these heavier downpours. Look at how much rain we can see from miami all the way up to jacksonville. As much as two to four, maybe even five inches of rain so that will certainly help with the deficit weve seen since june. Thats a look at the weather across the im first alert meteorologist Brittney Shipp. Today temperatures will range between 83 and 87, lots of sunshine and nice. A little warmer than what we saw yesterday. But our humidity stays low, wind speeds light out of the west. 5 to 10 miles per hour. Your sevenday forecast shows we are going to see an instant replay into tomorrow, then look at friday and saturday. The only difference is saturday more humidity but a cold front drops temperatures to the low 80s by sunday. Ts your latest forecast. All right, dylan, thank you. Now to that shooting that shocked and saddened the country. A Television Reporter and photographer gunned down while they reported live on the air. Well, now for first time the woman they were interviewing who was also shot is speaking out and nbcs Hallie Jackson has the story this morning. Hallie, good morning. Reporter good morning, savannah. Millions of people have seen those images of Vicky Gardner standing with Allison Parker second before a gunman opened fire on live tv. Gardner has also seen that video and said she had to watch it to move on but is still not ready to return to the scene. Vicky gardner remembers every moment from this interview. I saw movement and then gunfire, lots and lots of gunfire. Reporter the shooting airing live on wdbjs morning news, a single image of the gunman captured on camera. I didnt know where he was. I felt the next shot i knew the next shot he was going to shoot me in the head because thats what he was doing. World goes in front of your in front of you, and it did real fast, and i said im ready. Im ready. Reporter instead the shooter fired a bullet through gardners back as she lay on the ground in the fetal position. Gardner tells fox news Greta Van Susteren she new reporter Alison Parker and camera man adam ward had been shot. The only thing i could think of was play dead. I was just concentrating on being so still that he wouldnt shoot me again, and then it was quiet. Reporter at home her husband watched live, telling our willie geist after the shooting. Immediately tried to call her on her cell phone. Reporter after the video cut away to show a stunned anchor on set, tim gardner waited 15 frantic minutes before his wife called from the ambulance. I spoke with vicky for about three, four minutes while she was being transported to the the emergency room at roanoke memorial. She explained what had happened to her and that she didnt know how she survived but she did and that she loved me. Reporter that day as doctors rushed gardner into surgery at the hospital, the gunman, a former reporter at the news station, killed himself. We have a long way to go on understanding what would possess somebody to have that muchage sneer but instead of anger, she and others in roanoke are choosing to focus on healing. Its good to be back, folks. Reporter parkers boyfriend, a news anchor, returning to his position on air this week. I know the answer to what we all must do. It is to profess love, not hate, to love one another and to love strangers. Reporter gardner still struggling to understand why she was spared. My heart just goes out to alison and adam, and they are so young. Why spare me and take them . Reporter gardner says shes hoping to create a lasting tribute to alison and to adam. As for the investigation, police tell me overnight they are working to come up with information to share with other agencies that might help prevent shootings like this in the future. In the meantime, they say they are working with their community to try to regain some peace of mind and to heal. That will, of course, take a lot of time. Guys. Well, she has a lot of strength and spirit. Hallie jackson, thank you very much. Coming up, a disturbing scene, a High School Football player slamming a helmet into an opposing players head.

We begin this half hour though with a disturbing incident from a High School Football game. Take a look. A player rips the helmet off an opponent and then hits him in the head with that helmet. Willie is here with more on that. Willie, good morning. Good morning, guys. Game was last friday might in linden, new jersey. The player struck ended up at the hospital with ten stitches, and now Police Investigators are getting involved. This Morning Police and School Officials in new jersey are reviewing video released overnight of a High School Football game between linden and immaculatea. During the Second Quarter of last nights injuriesity game number 73 and number 1 can be seen getting tangled up in a play at the line of scrimmage with the immaculatea lineman being tossed to the ground. His helmet then apparently ripped off by the linden defensive lineman who appears to swing it striking it across the head and sending him to a nearby hospital where he received ten stitches. Linden player was flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct though he was not ejected from the game. He now has reportedly been suspended from the team. School officials are demanding that player be punished. School officials in linden released a statement reading in part an investigation by the administration is taking place and disciplinary consequences will be issued accordingly. Aggression on the High School Football field has been in the spotlight in recent weeks. Last friday a san antonio High School Football player was caught on camera apparently shoving a referee after a penalty call, and two players from a Different School in san antonio have been accused of intentionally targeting a referee, knocking him to the ground and diving on to him during a game on september 4th. Those two players have been suspended from school and placed in a countyrun juvenile justice school. They could face criminal assault charges. Back to the new jersey incident, the juvenile bureau of the linden, new Jersey Police Department Investigating the incident to determine if charges will be filed. The immaculatea coach said the high school has been effusive in its apology offering to help in any way you can. Look at way the kid was hit. Lucky he only got stitches. How did the referees not throw that kid out of the game . Got a 15yard penalty and stayed in the game. Thats unreal. Keep us posted on it, willie, thank you. Now to a bit of a strange one involving Sir Elton John and Vladimir Putin. The music superstar says he got an unexpected phone call from the russian president , but now the kremlin is saying dont believe that. Nbcs kier simmons has more on this. Key, good morning. Reporter full disclosure, i cant entirely explain what happened here so youll have to decide for yourself what you think. Elton johns team tell us this morning they are sticking with the statement that the singer made on insta gram suggesting he received a call from the president of russia to talk about gay rights except the kremlin says what phone call . Its the human side reporter russians love elton john. His concerts sell out, so maybe, just maybe, he could help heal this kind of hatred. Gay rights protesters attacked in moscow. I tried to persuade president putin to stop this, elton john said over the weekend. I would love to sit down and talk to him. I said, come on, this is not gay people are not the problem here. Reporter then a stunning development. On eltons Instagram Page a big putin picture. Thank you to president Vladimir Putin for reaching out and speaking via telephone with me today, the spinninger posted. I look forward to meeting with you facetoface to discuss lgbt equality in russia. Incredible. Actually maybe too incredible. Back in the ussr reporter phone call didnt happen says kremlin spokesman. I dont know who spoke to elton john. Wait, what . Was it some kind of prank call . If so, elton may not be laughing. A longtime campaigner for aids sufferers and against discrimination, while president putin seen here last month in the gym with his Prime Minister has faced International Criticism for russias laws against homosexuality. Putin and elton really meeting, now that would be something to see while whoever made the call may be in hiding. Now this morning putins spokesman is quoted as saying if the president does get such a signal from elton john to meet up, the president has always been open to discuss any human rights problems, any issues. Hes always ready to clarify the real situation, so, guys, a p putin elton meeting could be really be possible. Want to be a fly on the wall. Who made the call, was it a prank, a radio prank story . Reporter we just dont know. If it were a prank, supposedly wouldnt you think they would tape it and release it. We have would heard that already. Key, thank you, appreciate it. Lets get a check of the weather now from dylan. You guys liking the fall. Love it. A little heat is on the way, perhaps one of the hottest sense on record. Weve got an area of High Pressure, so we are looking at upper 80s to low 90s to stick around for most of the week. If we take a look at the average september temperature up until this point in the month, in new york city were averaging about 78 degrees. Thats above the record by about almost five degrees. The record of warmest september was about 73 degrees so are certainly seeing the chance of breaking some of these records. Same goes for minneapolis where the average so far has been 70 degrees. St. Louis averaging around 78. If it cools off out the end of the month obviously that will all balance out. Well see what happens. Meantime, looking for temperatures to stay well in the mid to upper 90s, dallas, shreveport, louisiana, upper 90s and st. Louis and good morning. Im first alert meteorologist Brittney Shipp. Today temperatures range between 83 and 87, lots of sunshine and nice. A little bit warmer than what we saw yesterday. Our humidity stays low, wind speeds light out of the west 5 to 10 miles per hour. Your sevenday forecast shows we are going to see an instant replay heading into tomorrow, then look at friday and saturday.

Edu. 7 42 and were back with our ongoing series the hacking of america. This morning a new warning before you log on to public wifi. Some of the hot spots may be traps to steal your identity, and youll find many of them in the countrys most popular Tourist Destinations. Tom costello has more on this. Tom, good morning to you. Reporter hi, guys. Good morning. You know its tempting to find the first wifi network that you see that doesnt require a password and log on and, of course, its very enticing for that very reason, its free, and hackers are hoping that in fact it will be so enticing it will be too good for you to ignore. You touch down in a new city, and the first thing many of us do look for a wifi network and log on, but beware. Thats exactly what cyber crooks are hoping youll do. Your video, your Social Security number, your insurance information, your credit card information, mobile payments and then after that information. Reporter varun kohli has worked in Computer Security for ten years and a vp with skycure which has released a list of top Tourist Attractions surrounded by potentially vicious Wifi Networks. First on the list, no square, times square, new york. Each red pin represents a network that could be risky. In a two square block area youve got ten suspicious wifis. Thats true. When we did the study we found hundreds of bad Networks Just around the top Tourist Destinations. Reporter one big washing sign, says varun the word free. If you see free wifi advertised be wary. Nearly one out of ten suspicious networks calls itself free so we asked tourists in times square how they pick a wifi. Im not too picky. I just choose one and if it works im like whoo. We get to the hotel and use the hotels wifi but if im desperate i would risk it. Reporter to prove how easily hackers can gain access to phones, varun hacked mine in less than a minute. I have access to your password, access to your bank information, access to your email. Reporter you can see all of this. I can see all of that. Reporter studies suggest 922 of people who use free wifi never read the disclaimer which sometimes clearly states the network will access your personal information. On the list of tourist sites surrounded by risky wifi we werent surprised to find the hollywood walk of fame. Everywhere i go, im searching for a wifi to be with my friends. I just assume that its a safe network, i dont know. Reporter also on the list, area surrounding Notre Dame Cathedral in paris, major theme parks in california and florida, Golden Gate Park in San Francisco and the vegas strip, but this one was a surprise. Just outside vatican city in rome. Around the vatican youve got six suspicious sites. Youre not saying the vatican is suspicious. That is right. When people go they stay 30 minutes from the Tourist Destination and hackers know about it so they have set traps around the Tourist Destination. Reporter one big caveat, just because the network is suspicious doesnt mean its malicious, but it may be worth avoiding. The safest way not to get sick is not to shake hands with sick people. Reporter good advice there, dont shake hands with sick people so you want to do everything you can to avoid, of course, the risky apps and also risky Wifi Networks. Heres a look of tips that you can from what the experts are telling us. To begin with, dont join Free Wifi Networks unless youre really sure you can trust them. Keep your phones operating system up to date. If your phone or apps start to crash, turn off the wifi and phone immediately and download a mobile security app. Lastly, check out this website, maps.

On instagram you can like things with a little heart and on twitter over here you can favorite posts by hitting a star but on facebook you, of course, can click the word like. Another option may be coming soon. In an hour long q aimptd a on tuesday Mark Zurkerberg announced that the often discussed dislike button is in the works. Specifically he was to clarify the purpose was to show approval but instead to have a way to show empathy. Heres how mr. Suckerberg described the intended use. Whether its Something Like in Current Events, like the refugee crisis that touches you or if a Family Member passed away, then it may not feel comfortable to like that post, but but your friends and people want to be able to express the fact that they understand and relate to you so i do think its important to give people more options than just like as a quick way to emote and share with their feeling on a post. We asked you at today. Com is a dislike button a good idea. 77 saying yes, it expresses empathy and 23 saying no, not necessarily. Fun fact. Apparently facebook did have a dislike button back in the day. They removed their thumbs down in 2008 to simplify the site and to create a better User Experience so well keep an eye on this story. Do you think we should have an agree button or like. Work on it, carson. Work on it, carson. Coming up, an update on the i sure had a lot on my mind when i got out of the hospital after a dvt blood clot. Work on it, carson. Coming up, an update on the what about my family . My lil buddy . And what if this happened again . I was given warfarin in the hospital but i wondered if this was the right treatment for me. Then my doctor told me about eliquis. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots and reduces the risk of them happening again. Not only does eliquis treat dvt and pe blood clots, but eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. Knowing eliquis had both. Turned around my thinking. Dont stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. If you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily. And it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Eliquis treats dvt pe blood clots. Plus had less major bleeding. Both made switching to eliquis right for me. Ask your doctor if its right for you. How muwe saved today . Think a lot.

When i see a Justin Bieber crowd or one direction crowd and i seed tweens on our plaza and teens crying and fainting, that was me about duran duran. It will be fun. Lets go inside. Natalies got a check of the top stories. Natalie. Hey guys, good morning once again. Ten republican rivals are ready to confront donald trump tonight in the second gop debate. Nbc National Correspondent Peter Alexander is in simi valley, california, with a look at the candidates strategy. Peter, good morning. Reporter hey, natalie, good morning to you. Donald trump may have a big target on his back as the gang of 11 now is on the main stage tonight. Trump, of course, the first time around really was more of a novelty act, but now the novelty has worn off for a lot of his republican opponents as trump has solidified his lead right now. This is likely to be a much more combative debate than the first time around, the moderators saying they will try to pit the candidates against one another and they are describing this as a real dog fight. Already rand paul who in the first debate sparred with trump has said his goal tonight is to out trump as a, quote fake conservative. Donald trump for his part has been unimpressed by the possibility of attacks. Hes repeatedly said whatever. Its also a critical night for other candidates like ben carson and challenger Carly Fiorina who has been steadily gaining steam, but perhaps more important for folks like jeb bush and scott walker whose poll numbers have plummeted. With a fundraising deadline approaching and only so many dollars from donors available, a bad performance for a candidate tonight, natalie, could mean the end of the road. Well wait and see what happens and pop your popcorn and get ready. Thanks, Peter Alexander in simi valley, california. Well, the death toll from flash flooding in utah is vicing with the discovery of at least four bodies in Zion National park. Several other members of their hiking group still unaccounted for overnight, and would the the deaths came hours after a small pill mist community loved 12 loved ones. Rescuers searched through mud and debris for another Family Member who is still missing. Firefighters have made progress against the devastating wildfire that has burned nearly 100 square miles in northern california. They said it was 30 contained overnight and no additional homes were destroyed after the loss of more than 600 earlier this week. But Officials Say the swirling firestorm can shift direction with little notice posing new threats to people and property. Five cities have been officially named as candidates to host the 2024 summer olympics, los angeles, paris, rome, hamburg and buoydapest we named by the International Olympic committee. L. A. Also hosted the games in 1932 and 1984. The ioc will now elect a winning bid in 2017. An audience was stunned into silence on tuesday during a presentation of the new bmw models at an auto show in frankfurt, germany.

Dont be alarm the its just carson, everybody. Just testing out the latest beauty craze. Wheres my news credibility gone, everybody . This is what ive been brought on the today show to do now. Carson, this is the latest in face masks, dont you know . Supposed to make me younger. Make me more beautiful. Should put this mask on my heart, apparently. These face masks have been around forever like we all know the clay mask that mom would put on and it was green usually. Yeah. This is apparently where face masks are going, kind of peel it off and all the celebrities are doing it. Its coming back into style. Leave it on for a few minutes. We ride it this morning. Heres what happened. What we looked like. Jason. Feels great, by the way. Hydrating. Something about it where you cant smile apparently. None of us smiled. Because your mouth is like a little hole. I just knocked on matts door with that on, and as if nothing was going on. Didnt even notice it. Just a typical morning. There are other kind, too, by the way, you know. Look at this one. Well, this looks kind of space age. Theres no eye holes or anything. What is it . I guess the light, the red and blue lights help sort of bring back the collagen to the face. You look beautiful. Definitely look young er. Theres all these gadgets now, and this is kind of the new thing. What it really shows is just how far people will go just to get a little bit of an edge. Thats true. A lot of celebrities are using them, jessica alba. Cool. Like a stormtrooper halloween costume. Im going to keep this on. Beauty mask not the only big trend right now. How about wearing socks with sandals. You guys like that look . I dont like that look. Just uncomfortable. Not my favorite. Do you like sandals . I dont mind sandals. Can he take this off yet. Hasnt been five minutes. For a long time its been a nono dont wear socks with sandals and popular with athletes and stars like snoop dogg and look who else is jumping in on the trend, bigname designer, calvin klein, among those bringing the controversial look to the runway. Footwear company teva has created a whole guide on how to pull off the look. But they are not the thong sandals that have the thing that separates, hasnt dont work. Like a slide sandal. Tall guys like snoop, athletes, they can pull that look off, you know, really well. So are you tall. Are you carson daly . See. You look good, carson, you do. Your skin is glowing. Im so thirsty. Question for panel, your kids have chores, right . Yes. If they make a mistake, they shrink something or dont iron it right do you make them do it over again or what do you do . I dont have my kids ironing. I remake their beds sometimes. Do you if. Yes. They are supposed to wipe up a mess and dont do it well or supposed to clean the table i tend to reclean it. Guess what. Apparently were all doing it wrong because youre not supposed to help them if they mess up. The website slate says you should let kids botch their chores because that makes them better at it. They are forced to figure it out on their own and by way the website says dont try to even bribe your kids with cash. It doesnt work in the long run. Really. We have my 3yearold who learned to clear her plate from dinner, clears her plate and walks over to the counter, thats awesome and throws the whole thing into the trash so we didnt fix it we have nothing to eat on. Imagine if you were the mom or the mccaughey sextuplets and had to remake all those beds. Forget it. Thats okay. Take you all day. Savannah, this is a story that savannah pitched but just didnt want to actually read, okay. Thats true. Scientists are looking for ways to make science fun, and more appealing to the masses so the folks at nasa came up with a very interesting little guide to space, and heres one little nugget. Good choice of words. You know when you look up at the sky and think you may be seeing shooting stars. It may not be a shooting star. It could very well be the result of an astronaut going number two. Seriously. Come on. Wait a second. Apparently when astronauts on the space station go number two they dont just store it for the six months they are up there, they they eject it into space and then it burns up. And nasa says its like a shooting star. I like that they actually tweeted about it and when you go number two you dont youre not making shooting stars. Look up. Dont look up. Dont look up. So its a flying pile of yeah. Okay. Meet logically speaking. Im sure it was pretty well understood and i think everybody got it. I think some tinks you just dont need to know that its happening in space. The information doesnt always have to be readily available for all of us. Why do we need to know these things . Science. I feel better for us. Only if my wish comes true. The new take on iconic movie scene that gave us nightmares and Ariana Grande does her best sierra leone. Carson. Well start with a good scare, one of the most frightening scenes in history, a classic from Alfred Hitchcock psycho, janet lees character getting an uncouple surprise in the shower and nowjaimy lee curtis is striking a new pose for the tv show scream queens and thats pretty cool right there. Next, helen mirren and the comments raising some eyebrows this morning. The dane was talking about gender equality and some form of pdas and she said it annoys me when i see a men with an arm slung around their girlfriends shoulders. Its like ownership. When youre young you want the guy to take you by the hand and look after you but i see girls being leaned on and i want to say, tell him to get his blank arm off your shoulder. Wow. Guys doing this kind of thing. And i think its more when they do this. I think thats a show of endearment and love. I think hand holding is better though. Cool. And we love when they do this on the tonight show, a game called wheel of musical impressions where jimmy and a guest take turns impersonating people singing famous songs and last night Ariana Grande was there and they made beautiful music together. I can feel my face when im with you but i love you i cant feel my face when im with you but i love you, but i love you shall we go for you. I cant feel my face with you thats kind of awesome. Thats really good. Funny and alarmingly talent. What cant jim doe. They sound good together. Thats your pop start. Your skin looks fantastic. Feels nice. Dylan, your skin looks nice, too. Want to do the weather . Yes. Ill go do the weather. Looking at heavier rain and even some mountain snow across parts of the rockies, especially 8,000 feet out in yellowstone. Showers moving into parts of the Pacific Northwest and also in middletown. Thats where were going to see more showers begin to move in along with temperatures in the upper 60s. Want to point out yesterday in los angeles of all places we ended up with almost three inches of rain in just one day, and i found out, unfortunately, 80 to 90 of that goes into the storm drains and runs right out into the ocean and much needed rain wasted in that situation. Afternoon temperatures cool in the northwest and hot down through the plains. West texas topping out above 100 degrees and the area of High Pressure will continue to move eastward and some of the heat will start to stretch into the northeast. Shooting star right that. No, thats a and thats your latest forecast, savannah. Dylan, thank you so much. Now day thee of our special series of where are they now checking in on some of the most compelling stories weve covered on the show. This morning seven siblings who made history the moment they arrived. The year was 1997. President William Jefferson clinton was sworn into office for a second term. We said goodbye to the peoples princess and titanic hit the big screen breaking box office records. Im flying. And on november 19 in des moines, iowa, bobbi and Kenny Mccaughey made headlines of their own welcoming seven bundles of joy into the world. Four boys, three girls, all healthy. The miracle babies will become the worlds first surviving set of sextuplets making their Television Debut on our air at just four days old. These Little Fighters have had us wrapped around their little fingers ever since. Growing up in front of our eyes. And our cameras. And with just two months to go follow the sextuplets 18th birthday the mccaughey home is just as hectic as those early days, but now the tiny babies are practically all grown up heading into their senior year of high school. Its scary to think about all of them being out, choosing their career path, making those choices. When you have infants and somebody tells you, you know, dont blink, its going to be over, you think that they are out of their mind, but it really is true. Here they are, natally, kelsey, kenny jr. , weve got brandon, alexis, joel and nathan and their parents, of course, kenny and bobbi. Good morning to all of you. Good to see you. Good morning. I dont know about you, bobbi and kenny, but these 18 years have really flown by for us. They have flown by. Do you feel a little differently . No, they have flown by. Yeah. Whats the biggest memory when you look back at that video we just showed and, kenny, whats the biggest memory from that time, the little baby time . It was in the e. R. , for me it was seeing each one of the kids come out of the womb, and it was really it was really quite a sight to see that. Has it been fun to reminisce, bobbi . Is your heart twingeing a little bit as you see those images . Yeah. Yeah. Why . Can you explain. Because theres been so many things that have happened and the memories, the joys, the heartaches that have happened, and but its all you know, its what has gotten us to where we are today and its very special. Its just a little bit of wonderful, isnt it . Yes. These seven beautiful faces against all odds. I want to catch up with the kids. Now, we followed you over the years, right . Our cameras were around in the early years, and some of these descriptions were given by you guys about the kids and i want to see if they hold up. Who would you say is the class clown . Kenny. Kenny. That is you. Its true. Yes. Okay. Who is the book worm, the reader. Joel. Joel. I had it as natalie. Smarty pants. Okay. What do you think in. Well, joels the one who likes to read a lot, but im the one who takes school very seriously and spends a lot of time like doing homework and studying so i can try to keep my grades up. Okay. Thats good. Someone said one your siblings is stubborn and fearless. Brandon. Brandon. Do you plead guilt . Yeah. Whats the best thing, guys, about being a sextuplet, the best thing . I would say just having a big family, a lot of brothers and sisters to hang out with. Youre never alone. Always someone to hang out with and talk to. I think thats the best. Do you agree best . You know whats coming. Whats the worst thing about being a sextuplet. Kelsey, you look like you have something to say. I dont know, its just i dont think theres a worst part. Ive enjoyed all of it, so theres not been a worst part you know, just sit here and marvel how wonderful you have all turned out. Bobbi and kenny, thats such a testament, couldnt handle seven babies in diapers and seven drivers licenses and now tuition bills coming. How have you been able to manage, bobbi . Early on we had so much help from family and friends and if there was anything that we needed there was always someone there who was willing to help us and, you know, we have a super strong support system. We have a super strong faith that has been the rock that we have had just to stand on. Great foundation is absolutely key. Bobbi, i mean, it was so public. You guys were on the cover of magazines and for a while our cameras followed you and you did a little bit of press but you said okay, thats enough. Were going on with our lives. You didnt go the reality tv route. Was that on purpose . Yes, because i really want us to be, you know, as normal of a family as we could be. Thats the best way to raise a family is just let the normal everyday, you know, things. Yeah. Is it fun, guys, to be in the spotlight now . Youre almost 18, or are you ready to just go back to normal life . Its fun, i like it. Of course, you would say that, kenny. Youre the class clown. Well, good luck to all of you. Its so good to see you, and i think so many people in this country feel like they really know that they watched that miracle when you were born and were glad to catch up with you. Thank you so much. Thanks for having us. Coming up tomorrow another great story we followed, Jessica Lynch the army soldier captured and dramatically rescued in the 2003 iraq war. We will get up to date on her life and check in with jessica. Carson, over to you. Savannah, thank you so much.

Thanks for watching. 8 30 now on this wednesday morning, 16th of february, 2015. Guys, it is a great morning. They are playing our song. We are going to party, siesta, forever. All night long because Lionel Richie is here. Not only is he going to sing, we looked it up on lyrics. Com. I thought it was carumba, too. I thought it was whatever, one of the greatest artists of all time, Lionel Richie going back to the commodores in the 60s and hands down one of the nicest human beings alive. Absolutely and a big announcement ahead. And tom brokaw reintroduced us to the greatest generation. Hes written so eloquently about that generation, but now wes talking about millennials this morning and what they can do to serve their country in some very different ways. All right. Well catch up with him. Meantime, if you happened to catch last nights premiere of Neil Patrick Harris show the best time ever here on nbc, well, you probably notice that had carson put in an appearance along with some of his friends from the voice. And that man in disguise, as you see, is Neil Patrick Harris. Hes trying to be an international interviewer and the guys from best time ever shared an exclusive outtake. Here goes nothing. Pharrell, i love your style and energy. Who choose your outfits. I choose my outfits. My wife is a seamstress in austria and i wear your outfits like costumes. Bananas, bananas. Had no idea who he was, pretending to be a host of another voice in another country and everyone was trying to be nice but he was just so weird. So weird the whole time and it turns out he sang, no coach turned around and its like its me, Neil Patrick Harris, youre on my show best time ever. I dont think ive ever seen pharrell not smile. He was bewildered. Awkward. By the way, catch the best time ever with Neil Patrick Harris next tuesday 10 00 p. M. Volumes kwltd the voice. Also a very good show i hear on nbc. Dylan, how about a check of the weather. The heat is building. It feels like anything but fall, thats for sure. Temperatures in the 90s to even 100s down through texas. We are going to see some of the heat and the humidity build back in across the northeast, even up into new england where we could be flirting with some records, especially tomorrow. More rain is likely down through florida, and we also have some pockets of heavier rain that could lead to more flash flooding through the rockies and also mountain snow before that at 8,000 feet. Still still unsettled across washington and oregon and muchneeded rain in that area and temperatures only in the 60s and a front that moves in that will bring showers through minnea good morning. Im first alert meteorologist Brittney Shipp. Lots of sunshine and nice. Warmer than what we saw yesterday. Our humidity stays low. Our wind speeds stay light out of the west, 5 to 10 miles per hour. Your sevenday forecast shows we are going to see an instant replay heading into tomorrow. Take a look at friday and saturday. The only difference is saturday more humidity. A cold front drops our temperatures to the low 80s by sunday. Just signed this gentlemans cast, the first signature. Got to get anybody else out here. Thank you very much. Feel better. Thanks very much. From time to time our good friend and colleague tom brokaw stops by with an issue that has caught his attention. Today the impact millennials will have in particular through Public Service here, at home and abroad. Its a popular theme in his commencement speeches. We must all take a role in exporting the american ideals and culture and the American Dream so i would hope that each of you would dedicate a part of your life to the idea that american citizenship goes beyond our own selfish purposes. It is a privilege and an obligation and an opportunity not to be taken for granted. It is hardearned. Arizona State University president michael crow has embrace that had message in a big way kicking off a first of its kind Public Service academy, training both civilian and military leaders together. Dr. Crowe, tom, good to see you both. Good to be here. Well, i just i so admire michael as a University President but also as a guy who is willing to seize on ideas. Would i come back from iraq and afghanistan and think were putting all the burden on our military people, less than 1 of our population, and we have the millennials who feel disconnected from their government and from the idea of Public Service. He heard me give that speech about we need to kick start Public Service and use land grants to do it so this fall hes started the Public Service academy at arizona state. What happens with this academy, and what exactly will take place when students are a part of that . Think of it like rotc but its to produce civilian leaders for civilian roles so were building an academy where people will learn practical aspects of leadership and will take their regular major and will have scholarships training side by side with future military officers to produce the new kinds of leaders. Weve created a new academy, new environment for them. Tom, how many times in the past have we talked about only really respecting people who put their money where their mouth is . Dr. Crowe is putting money where his mouth, is personally donated more than 1 million to this academy. Really by all accounts im not afraid of embarrassing him but everybody regards him as one of the two or three greatest University President s that we have in this country because he is so dynamic. The other piece of it is that we want to have the private sector have an engagement with these people in the Public Service academy as well so they emerge with it from real job skills. Tom has written so much about the greatest generation, doctor, and all they did to contribute to the betterment of the world, and i think sometimes millennials dont get a fair shake when it comes to our expectations of what they might accomplish. Would you agree with that . I think thats true. When we look at the millennials and particularly the millennial nets, people born after 94, we see them as wanting their lives to have purpose and what were doing is expanding their opportunity to have purpose and to be of service and building an academy, adding to americas capabilities to produce new leaders. Real quickly, when you give that speech and you talk to them about exporting the ideals of our country and their civic and civilian responsibility, what kind of response do you get . I get in every kind of audience, conservative, liberal, young, old, corporate, standing ovation, you must say. Im quite stunned by it. I describe it as a big idea that can bring the country together. This is not a partisan idea, matt. This is an idea that everyone can rally around during a campaign in which the country seems to be broken in a lot of parts. You may get Standing Ovations but you may not realize it because youre also tom brokaw. That probably contributes a little bit, too. I dont think it has much. If i was mattite be out there on the golf course with jordan spieth. We can all do that. Doctor, great to see you. Thank you very much. Great, matt. My pleasure. Coming up, a talent invasion in studio 1a, oscar winner benzio were back now at 8 39. The new movie that delves into the highstakes world of illegal Drug Trafficking and a task force and oscar winner benzio del toro stars as a mysterious consultant. Take a look. Where were you sent from in. Cartagena. Colombia. Nothing will make sense to your american ears, and you will doubt everything that we do. But in the end, you will understand. Benicio del toro, good morning. Good morning. This is an intense film, and there are good guys and bad guys but you dont actually know who is who for quite a bit. Yeah. Well, i think thats thats the point of the film. Youre compelled by by you understand what they are doing but then you dont youre not so sure if their tactics are the right ones. From almost your first scene i felt like watching, it like i liked you but i didnt know i wasnt ready to commit because i thought theres a good chance that youre going to be really terrible. Does that mean Mission Accomplished . Yeah, yeah. Hes the type of guy that hes going to win no matter what, you know. Youre the kind of actor i would assume who just has the pick of scripts right now. Are you somebody who gets a script and its love at first sight, that this is a movie that i want to do, or do you pull it over and let it marin ate and think about it in. Usually when i read a script i can tell if its original and that this one was very original so i was motivated to go the next step which would be meet the director and the director of sicario, his enthusiasm, his point of view, his vision just was contagious, and i said yes. And then the cast josh brolin and emily blunt, great. Its amazing. The movie, of course, deals with the war against cartels, the war on drugs. This is an area that many of your movies have dealt with, but youve played different perspectives. Youve been a recovering addict in one film, an addict in one film, a good cop and this mysterious creature. Ive played all most of the angles. Yeah. I think, and this one is different because this one is the guy that that is bent on revenge and hes going to do anything he can to be on the good side and thats thats a journey. Emily blunt is coming on tomorrow. Shes in the movie as well. She says, by the way, that youre amazing to work with, and we asked her were you intimidated by benicio and i think it was tongue and cheek and she said i think he may be intimidated by me. I think thats true. When you sit down and work with an actor that is like so good as she is, its like and in particular theres this one scene in the movie that its like im not going to say which scene, but its like i was amazed, you know. It was like every now and then you you work with an actor and you see the scene goes to another level, and and it happened in this movie. It doesnt happen that often that youre with an actor and you go, oh, my god, this scene went to a place where i thought it would never go and its because of her. Shes intimidating that way but shes a lot of fun, a prankster. We look forward to talking to her tomorrow. I cant let you go without telling you that i did a Little Research and i have a piece of video to share with you. This is you, Benicio Del Toro in madonnas video. Oh, yeah, thats me in the back. That is not you. Got to get a nice tight shot of you because youre 20 years old. This had to be one of your first acting gigs. Were going to show you in a second. Oh, there it is. No, come on. Youre the main guy in there. No, im the guy sitting in the back, smiling, trying to find a camera. You look good, but i have to say i thought you were the maybe star, watched the whole video, the guy strumming the guitar, i thought it was you. No, no. Thats good. I think we knew good things were coming. Yeah, yeah. Thank you for reminding me not to forget where i come from. Exactly. Benicio del toro, the movie is incredible. His costar emily blunt will be here tomorrow and sicario opens live october 2nd and a big the toyota Concert Series on today brought to you by toyota.

Man, youve had an unbelievable year, train wreck, so good in that movie. You and lebron were like these crazy surprises. The acting, amazing. The one scene with miss schumer that you got to shoot over and over and over. Were here, the best part of the year so far. Can i point out something that you put up on twitter yesterday because i had a good laugh about this. Sure. You were at the gym and you tweeted this out. Just so happened to be thinking about willie, man about 9 00, sure hes doing his thing. Time for sunriseandsquats, at monday motivation. Were you doing your squats . I was having a monday danish, my monday exercise. I do love that you think about me when youre on the squat rack. Why werent you thinking about me. Whats that . Why werent you thinking about me . I was just focused on making sure that willie was doing some hard work. Yes. Maybe getting his mind in the right place. This is my hard work right here. Okay. So ive got to show you something. On saturday we had a bunch of people over to the house. Okay. My wife said got to get out, fran some stuff, fancy napkins and fancy people coming over and heres the cocktail napkins i got in tribute to john cena. Nothing says a classy cocktail napkin like john cena. Where did you find them in. Wwe, party store. Ive never seen this. You cant see them sometimes, thats my thing. Some of you get it, some of you wont. Dont write. How did they go over in. Huge, people loved them. Otherwise youve got like a doily or a thing with a pattern on it. Nobody wants to see that. What kind of drinks do you serve with that, though in. Any drink, beer, wine, the kids liked it. Chocolate milk even. That will work. Anything you neath need. Anything you need. Yeah. So ive seen mr. Cena in action live. Hes always so generous with fans backstage with a lot of people. Does such a good job with that, an after monday nights episode of wwe john surprised a very special kid in the crowd. This is great. Check it out. Weve got a special fighter in the house. We have a young lady who is 7 years old and she just got some amazing news. She has been fighting quite a tough battle, and im proud to announce that she won thats kiara. 7yearold cancer survivor. Thats an awesome moment. And what a great thing. Theres a lot of preconceived notions what i do in my other job.

Its great. Shows when you get a bunch of people together and give them an escape and let them have a good time that good things happen. Youre a big guy with a big heart and give so much of yourself to make a wish and to all those kids. Thanks so much for airing that clip. It was a wonderful moment. Im happy to share it with you guys. An awesome, awesome moment. Now a moment i dont even know if i want to bring up again just last month jon stewart comes in the ring. He does. At the summer fling. And it also has its drawbacks. Comes into summer slam on a sunday night and basically strips you of your title by helping rollins. Yeah. So the next night he comes back from monday night raw and you confronted him. I know youre going to understand this because right now im just going to do what ive got to do. Oh. Oh, no. Thats jon stewart. John cena. Let him down. With jon stewart. Oh, i was told to put him down. Thats a hard you put him down hard though. Oh, my gosh. He was down for the count for a while. Jon was actually great. Wanted to be proactively involved in our show and his son is such a fan. Son was so excited for his dad and summer slam didnt go my way but i got my comeuppance the next night. And you could the stewart. John has a match for the championship the against seth rollins at wwes night of champions and airs on the wwe Network Sunday night at 8 00 eastern, 5 00 pacific. Im going to do my best. Have you changed your strategy to get it back. Got to watch out for jon stewart. Thats my main focus going on. Keep leek looking over my shoulder. A cheap shot from stewart there. This is an incredible piece of video. You know sometimes Major League Baseball teams, when the Home Team Hits a home run, tradition, see it all over the country. Shoot off the fireworks. When the Home Team Hits a home run. Thats what happens. Well last night the man in charge of fireworks at Progressive Field in cleveland had kind of an itchy trigger finger because at the top of the fifth inning alex rios of the visiting kansas city royals, the away team, hit a home run, an heres what happened. High drive deep left field. If its fair, its gone, and it is a home run deep on to the porch in left field and kansas city leads 20. Oh. Oh, no. Oops, wrong team. He knows immediately what he did and buries his head in the hands and watching him put his hat over his head in shame. Didnt help that kansas city ended up and winning it there. I think he was doing something nice, following the royals, in a bit of a snide so congratulating them for getting back on their winning track. Just happened to be against the indians. Yeah. Or maybe waking up the cleveland fans. Guys, a lot worse things can happen when fireworks go wrong. Thats true. Guy in shame syrup at home in cleveland. Ever had a moment i think weve all had embarrassing moments we kind of wish never happened but ive never had that public and involving pyrotechnics as well. Thats a good thing. Theres a great story a couple years ago, red sox pitcher had given up so many home runs at a visiting game and fireworks were going off and terry francona, manager, goes out to the mound and he says im not taking you out, i just wanted to give the fireworks guy a break. Hes got to reload. Oh, my gosh. A little moment of levity in a blowout loss. All right. Youre on facebook, right . Yeah. A little bit. Yeah, yeah, put out your promotional stuff. With the billions of people on facebook. Theres a proposal in the works and Mark Zuckerberg is talking about possibly adding another button. Of course, when you like something, you like it, right, the little thumbs up thing. Yeah. There used to be a button a was a thumbs down but years ago they did away with that, but what do you do when say somebody is putting something out there that is sad or some disappointing news. And i get this, i get this. You want another button because you dont want to like it, right so Mark Zuckerberg in a q a announced they are now discussing what could be a sort of button, like the dislike button, although hes not calling it that. Didnt say what it was going to be but heres how he explained it. Take a look. Whether its something in Current Events like the refugee crisis that touches you or if a Family Member passed away, then it may not feel comfortable to like that post, but but your friends and people want to be able to express that they understand and that they relate to you so i do think that it is important to give people more options than just like as a quick way to emote and share with their feeling on a post. Definitely. Its time. Great definition. Yeah. As posts get more and more broad in their range and people are opening up to social networks and putting more out there, its more than just a like. I think the emotional spectrum has to be more diverse. Cant be dislike. That implies a boo of some kind, a sad face or something. We dont need my more of that on social media. Cyber bullying is out of control already. Dont need to go into the dislike territory. See what they end up doing. Well keep you posted. Dylan you have a really cool new map. Look at that. Probably the coolest map ive ever seen. Totally made of play ddohplay playdoh made in 1956 with four cullers and now up to 56 colors and the playdoh sculptor who made this thing, and i sniffed it, it does smell like playdoh, the salty smell and he said the hardest part was opening the 250 cans of playdoh that you need to to create this. This took 30 hours to create, and ive got a sun right here so im going to stick this on and well bring this map to life now so close your eyes and use your imagination and now open up your eyes, just so life like. Weve got motion and everything in here. This is incredible. Weve got lots of rain down through florida. Keep in mind we could see some flash flooding because some of these downpours could end up producing perhaps up to two to three inches of rain, and over the course of the next 72 hours we could see even more rain, perhaps as much as five inches, especially across the eastern coast of florida where moisture is streaming in. This High Pressure system up here is sort of blocking the whole thing so it will be good morning. Im first alert meteorologist Brittney Shipp. Temperatures are range between 83 and 87. Lots of sunshine. Warmer than what we saw yesterday. Our humidity stays low and wind speeds 5 to 10 miles an hour out of the west. We will see an instant replay heading into tomorrow. Take a look at friday and saturday. The only difference in saturday, more humidity. A cold front drops our temperatures to the low 80s by sunday. If i didnt live in a shoebox in new york city id love to take this thing home, guys . Put it in your office, dylan. World playdoh day. Im making you a sign. I made a playdoh mustache.

I love what sprout stands for, cowatching with your kids and they are relaunching on september 26th with a whole new look, and their slogan is free to grow which i love, and its just super exciting. Tenth year. Yeah. The tenth anniversary which is crazy. Funny how your perspective on different projects changes when you have kids. I need to do that so my kids will think im cool. Exactly, yeah. So its great. Were going to go over to sprout later and ill bring my daughter and she will get to meet chico which is very exciting. A huge celebrity. A big deal. Moms pretty cool. I couldnt meet chico. Couldnt get through. Cena. Chico with all the bodyguards around her. There she is. Didnt want to get body slammed. Exactly. Attitude adjustment. Look how cute that chicken is.

I brought her to her first fashion show at new York Fashion Week last week. At 1. Shes been to fashion week. Took my son to super bowl when he was 1 so this is like the equivalent of that. Look at her little outfit. Has her little tie on because i took her to the marissa webb and shes all about mens wear for women and had a great time. Shes funny. Shes like girly but then loves bams and cars at the same time. I like that. I like that, too. As the woman i feel ill ask you the question about you posting pictures of yourself breastfeeding on social media. I dont think the guys want to go there. Its interesting. I think its great what youre doing. Youre taking a stand for women breastfeeding. I didnt really set out posting those pictures, like taking a stand for breastfe breastfeeding, just kind of sharing a moment and i realized through the response is that it was a moment that kind of needed to happen to start a dialogue because people are still very antibreastfeeding in public. A lot of backlash on this as well. Someone once told me to go breastfeed my baby in the bathroom, and i just thought, yeah, that didnt go over too well. I thought do you eat in the bathroom in a stall . Its so weird, but i think that, you know, this was a moment that needed to happen. Im glad the dialogue started and hopefully i can make things easier for moms in the future, whether they are breastfeeding or bottle feeding. It doesnt matter. Also talking about facebooks revamp of social networking and social networking, you are the boss of our own social network accounts. You put the stuff that you want to put up for people to interpret. Speaking of being the boss, the boss, are we going to see it. A good segue. Are we going to see it . Weve been talking a lot about it because they have been doing all these reboots. I mean, it would make sense to me. Theres a lot of things that went unanswered, like did tony and angela actually end up together . We dont know. I want to know. I want toy . If they said go, are you in. Im in if the script is good. Im sure tony would feel the same way. And you can see you grown up with your own kids and him as a grandfather. How great would that be. Net. Ics, amazon, somebody do it. It would be awesome. Thanks so much. Thank you for having me. Good to have you a part of sprout as well. Im so excited.

Third grader mori took this idea and ran with it creating probability plinko. They are here to teach us how to play. Good morning, guys. Good morning. Hey, mori, so youre the brilliant one. You came up with the idea. How did you think of this . Well, mrs. Clark was going through some ideas, and i thought that no one would do probability plinko because its probably too big. Yeah. So i chose that. Yeah. Im glad you did. Like the coolest game in the world. Its a fun game, like carnival game. Were going to break into teams and play. I want to be your teammate since you invented the game. Is that cool. Sure. Lawyer ark and i are on the same team. Weve got the whites and the originals here, right, so youre going to drop the disc. We drop from the top. Yes. And the discs will land in the white area, white means win for us and original means nothing. Because the probability mori, can you say the probability. The probability of losing the red squares, its 80 that you will lose and 40 that you will win. Because three out of five versus two out of five. Very good. You know your math.

Take a look at friday and saturday. The only difference is saturday more humidity. A cold front drops our temperatures to the low 80s by sunday. And thats your latest forecast. Natalie . Dylan, thank you. Well, with more than 70 film and tv credits to his name Michael Shannon is considered one of the most versatile actors in hollywood. He was nominated for an Academy Award in his role in revolutionary road opposite kate winslet and leonardo di caprio and starred in man of steel. And havent even mentioned boardwalk empire. And now he plays a different kind of villain, a routeless Real Estate Agent taking advantage during the crisis. America was built by bailing the winners. You go to church . Sure. Only 1 in 100 is going to get on that ark, son. And every other poor soul is going to drown. Im not going to drown. Wow. Michael shannon. I dont like you very much. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Thats pretty sinister. We were just talking about how powerful this movie is, the foreclosure crisis over the last couple of years to a lot of people has been number and statistics about how we know how bad the problem was, but this really humanizes it in such a personal way. Who is your character . How do you describe that guy . Well, i think its a guy who really studies the system and he understands how it works. I know for myself i found it pretty incomprehensible when i would read about it. Couldnt make heads or tails about what was going on and thats honestly what the system relies on, that people just cant fathom whats happening, so rick is somebody who actually studied it and figured out the ins and outs of it and figured out how to use it to his rang. Not only studied it and i saw the film last night and thought it was amazing, im a florida resident myself. I was there when the crash happened and communities turned into ghost towns and it seemed as if all the scenes in this movie which are very movie that people are getting evicted from their house and rick is so jaded and cold and systematic in his approach, how i dont want to give anything away, but the movie starts with about the worst result you could possibly imagine, you know, so its if thats where he starts off. Yeah, you know, its funny because i spent time with somebody who was in a very similar situation to rick, and like rick says in the movie, a lot of these brokers, they just started off wanting to sell homes. They didnt anticipate that this was going to happen, and it just kind of got thrust into their laps by, you know, the banks and the regulatory committees. They said, oh, would you mind doing this, too. We know you really want to sell homes but we just happen to have a lot of foreclosures. Ricks attitude is if he woke up tomorrow morning and said, you know what, im not going to do this anymore, i cant take it then they would just send somebody else so hes really in a way hopefully hoping to take responsibility for it. The underlying theme in the movie, across many characters in the movie they had that choice of sink or swim an they choose to swim. I dont want to give the movie away at all but truly riveting and truly amazing movie. Thought you did fantastic, coming out next friday. Yes, sir. I think everybody should see this, a very realistic look at a real crisis. I was there for all of it. I thought it was amazing and i thought you did fantastic. Thank you very much. Im going to lighten things up just a little bit because weve got to clear something up with our word on the web game that we like to play so you can clear up something that you put out on the internet. This. Yes. The fins. Okay. So you said your character general zod in the batman versus superman film will not only be a ghost but have flippers. Can you explain . Well, honestly, that was just kind of me having a life because the weird thing about this is that you do a movie like that and the studio begs you not to say anything like that and then people constantly ask you about it, so theres this tension there, and every once in a while i just let off some steam by making up something silly. Rattled the cage a little bit. Increases the anticipation. We love that. They are also going to make an aquaman pretty soon so i was trying to make it so my character could segue into flippers and then can be the bad guy. Career move. Big fan of your work, particularly this movie. Its really strong. 99 homes opens next friday, september 25th. Thanks very much. Hope everybody goes to see it. Coming up next, three brave men agreed to get a style upgrade at the urging of their significant others. We will reveal the n i guess i never really gave much thought to the acidity in any foods. Never thought about the coffee i was drinking having acids. It never dawned on me that it could hurt your teeth. My dentist has told me your enamel is wearing away, and that sounded really scary to me, and i was like well can you fix it, can you paint it back on, and he explained that it was not something that grows back, its kind of a onetime shot and you have to care for it. He told me to use pronamel. Its gonna help protect the enamel in your teeth. It allows me to continue to drink my coffee and to eat healthier, and it was a real easy switch to make.

Later, harsh garnier clean . Yoplait. The smooth and creamy yogurt your whole family loves. Yoplait original with no artificial sweeteners, no artificial flavors, and no high fructose corn syrup. After a dvt blood clot. Mind when i got out of the hospital what about my family . My lil buddy . And what if this happened again . I was given warfarin in the hospital but i wondered if this was the right treatment for me. Then my doctor told me about eliquis. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots and reduces the risk of them happening again. Not only does eliquis treat dvt and pe blood clots, but eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. Knowing eliquis had both. Turned around my thinking. Dont stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. If you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily. And it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Eliquis treats dvt pe blood clots. Plus had less major bleeding. Both made switching to eliquis right for me. Ask your doctor if its right for you. Like most guys john and i both have those two or three items of clothing that we wear all time that probably should have been chucked a long time ago. An old astros hat. Change doesnt come easy but today three men agreed to get a style upgrade. Here to show us the new look is andrew powel of merchandising for guilt. Com. Lets do this and jump right in with todd. This is the old look and his girlfriend vicky is tired of the sloppy sweats. So what do you think . Yeah, you know, weve been out of college for a few years now and, you know, i kind of want him to upgrade from that and have more of that adult look on the weekends, too. So this is the problem we see all the time, so, you know, hes comfortable and maybe a little bit too comfortable so we see this at the local starbucks and at airports and see it at my brothers house. Just a few small tweaks will make the world of difference. Shall we take a look. Lets have todd step out from behind. Lets go for it. Oh, my god. Twirl. What do you think . I love it. Yeah. I love the joggers. Yeah. What did you do, andrew . What he did here is we wanted to keep the comfort but, you know, we didnt want to sacrifice the style so like i said, probably getting a little bit too comfortable here so keeping some of the favorite items like the hoodie and the sweatpants but just making it a little bit more tailors. These are joggers, are great and have a panded botd tomorrow so they can show off a new streamlined sneaker which is really on trend. Really super comfortable with the sweatshirt, thats fine but lets add a new bomber over the top of it. Do you like it, todd . Its good. Going to stick with it. Ready to get rid of those track pants. Lets do it. With deditch them. Into the can. There we go. There goes the pants. Has the option if he wants to keep them. Thanks so much. Lets move down a little bit here. Okay, and check out teds old look. His girlfriend does nont not like it one bit. Whats the problem . You know, hes an entrepreneur, super busy and doesnt devote a lot of time to his wardrobe, always wearing the baggy shirts and i just want to see him in something a victim of that myself. It does make a difference. What do you think you do here . Another common problem, see this all over the streets outside. Not an overhaul, just a really small tweak, like lena said, an entrepreneur so we dont just want him to look like the boggs. We want him to feel like the boss as well so a really tailored slim suit is going to do that. Ted, come on out, my man. Oh, wow. Ted, tapered up, look as this. He looks fantastic. Believe it or not, this is a 200 suit. Hes got a much slimmer shirt on. We picked this one up from bar street, 55 bucks so a great value and something thats been selling for past couple years, a double monk strap shoe and he normally would wear a laceup so god something more modern. You happy . Very important decisions behind the scoreboard. I think its time, the baggy shirt. Away it goes. Look at that. With the assist. Come on. Looking good, man. You look great. Thank you. Down one. Okay. Weve got sort of a whats the problem here .

Its a 3x and he does not wear a 3x so im ready to see it go. Were getting married in a couple of weeks and im ready to see the jacket gone. Step out. Lets see what we did here. Oh, look at this. Again, just a little bit more polished, a little bit more modern. Were getting into the fall season so a lot of guys kind of reach in their closet and pull out something heavy. More updated and we have a lightweight down vest underneath a lighter weight jacket so he still gets to keep the leather but looks a little more polished. You like it in. Love it. Good look. Congratulations, guys. Thank you. You can get married now. Three success stories. Were good to go. Guys and ladies, thanks.
