Winless. Except for three. Two of them coming actually in new jersey. Heres one look at little egg harbor. It is in the sandy disaster zone. So, some real joy headed to a place that could use it. Meanwhile, our linsey davis tracking the latest overnight from another winning location in the state of new jersey. Thats where we find her. South brunswick, the place. Linsey davis, good morning to you. Reporter good morning, josh. This is the super stop n shop. Things opening up here. We were able to talk to one of the employees not too long ago inside. And he was telling us this isnt normally the place that has lottery frenzy. If you wanted to line up for a powerball ticket, there was no line at all. And while he has no idea who purchased that Winning Ticket, hes convinced someone just won 5, hes saying. But this guy is convinced, its one of the regulars. We have 58. Reporter these six numbers the number 30. Tonights winning powerball number, 32. Reporter this morning have made three people exceptionally rich. Overnight lottery Officials Say three tickets matched those winning digits. Two of them at Grocery Stores at opposite ends of new jersey. The third, in minnesota. Employees here at the super stop n shop in new brunswick, new jersey, are waking up shocked. We play the lottery. And that was it. Reporter thanks to an overwhelming frenzy for all that free money, in the hours leading up to wednesday nights drawing, the jackpot swelled by nearly 25 million. Up to a whopping 448 million. I hope i win. Reporter split that three ways, and the person or People Holding each of those Golden Tickets could walk away with nearly 150 million each. That is, at least, before taxes. Jackpots this large were once unheard of. Now, they seem almost common place. In fact, the largest payouts ever have happened in just the past two years. The record of 656 million jackpot last year. The secondlargest, one just three months ago. As for this mornings eyepopping 448 million pot, it will go down as the fourthlargest haul in history. One might imagine, for the lucky people waking up winners, being in fourth place probably still feels pretty good. They also told us that last year they sold a winning 1 million ticket and no one came forward to claim it. Somehow, i doubt, josh, thats going to happen this time. Well be on that, if it happens. That one guy, i got 5. Theyre happy. Now, though, to the outofcontrol wildfire in southern cal, surging in just a few hours to more than 6,000 acres. Hundreds have been evacuated. Many homes burned. Abcs cecilia vega is in southern cal, right now. Good morning, cecilia. Reporter robin, good morning to you. And look at this, the flames stretch up to the top of that ridge. The difficulty here right now, the erratic nature of these flames. Firefighters have struggled to get them under control. The massive fire burned out of control all night long. Stretching eightsquare miles. It was so bad, i thought i was going to die. Reporter a raging inferno 85 miles east of los angeles, where home after home went up in flames. When i left, i was backing out of my house. And there were flames all around my car. Reporter this morning, the fire still rages on, destroying more than 15 structures, forcing more than 1,500 people to evacuate. But not everyone who wanted out could get out. Firefighters say the glablaze blocked the highway escape route. It was pretty scary. Reporter this inferno called the silver fire, exploded quickly. Starting at 2 00 in the afternoon. In just four hours, it spanned more than 5,000 acres. Hundreds of firefighters raced to battle back flames any way they could. Navigating their way up steep hills and through the air, d. C. 10 tankers and helicopters. Its going to be a long night out here. Well have nightflying aircraft assisting us. Reporter two firefighters were hurt. So was a civilian who was airlifted to the hospital. As the sun rises, new challenges of wind, dry conditions and dangerously steep terrain. And the hope out here is that crews will be able to gain ground in the Early Morning hours during these cooler temperatures. But it is very windy out here right now, robin. So many people waking up this morning, hoping their home survived. Absolutely. That wind not helping. Always surprising how quickly it can spread like that. Now, to Abcs Amy Robach with the other top stories this morning. Good morning, amy. Good morning, everyone. We begin with breaking news from dallas. A deadly shooting rampage. Police say a man entered a home, opened fire and took off to a second location in the suburb of desoto, where an explosive device was then reported. Ryan owens is there with the very latest. Ryan, good morning. Reporter good morning, to you, amy. An extremely violent overnight here in texas. Eight people shot, four of them kimmed. Two of the fatalities were found in the suburban home behind me. Thats where police say the gunman murdered his exgirlfriend after he apparently first tossed some sort of explosive device in there. Were told when police arrived, the suspect actually pretended to be among the injured. Police have identified that suspect as erby bowser. He is at the Police Department now. Before he got to this home, he stopped at another home in south dallas, where he thought his exgirlfriend was. She wasnt there. But that did not stop him from shooting four people, killing two. Among the injured this morning, amy, a 13yearold and 11yearold boy. What a sad, sad story. Ryan owens. Thank you so much. A terrifying scene at a fair in minnesota, after a rodeo bull broke loose. A family with young children, as you might imagine, running for their lives. 8 people were injured when a 1,200pound bull escaped its pen. It was on the run for 15 minutes before it was finally and thankfully captured. Overnight, we learned another major bank, jpmorgan chase, is facing criminal charges stemming from the financial crisis. The bank confirming that the government is investigating its sale of mortgagebacked securities. It comes one day after we learned the government is suing bank of america. And crash tests this morning show your new car might not protect you in an accident as well as you might think. Of 12 small cars tested, only the honda civic earned the top safety rating. And half of the cars tested, were rated marginal or poor. Police in new jersey say two thieves who posed as golfers, may have been targeting country clubs from florida to massachusetts in recent weeks. They say the men made off with thousands of dollars in cash and credit cards, after hitting three new jersey clubs. They were arrested after allegedly targeting the locker room of another exclusive club last month. And finally, a little trying to get moms attention. Thats what happened with this bear. He was trying to get up on that jet ski. He was trying to distract mom who was interested in eating a fish. When she didnt share her share, he was on the jet ski to go catch his own. Hopefully didnt leave the keys. That might have been funny. Or a man in a bear suit. Thank you, amy. Were going to turn, now, to the growing freeze between the United States and russia. A possible new chapter of a cold war heating up. Were learning this morning it was president obama himself who canceled his summit meeting with Vladimir Putin, saying it just wasnt worth it. And Abcs Jonathan Karl is in washington with the very latest here. Jon, good morning to you. Reporter good morning, josh. Well, the president s decision to cancel that summit with Vladimir Putin comes as u. S. russian relations are at their frostiest since the cold war. They clashed over syria. Now, the relationship is even worse. The last time a u. S. President canceled a planned meeting in russia was 1960, the height of the cold war, before even the cuban missile crisis. Putin has carefully crafted his image as a russian strongman. Showing off his physique on horseback, dominating foes in the hockey rink and on the judo mat. And just last month, some mighty big fish. Even perfected the art of the icy stare. That seems to be his preferred style in press conferences. Sitting back and not looking too excited. Reporter in cancelling the moscow summit, the white house cited not only the decision to grant asylum to edward snowden. But also, a long list of grievances, from human rights to global security. Were not afraid to state clearly where we have disagreements. Reporter another cloud over the russian relationship, is the countrys recently passed homophobic law, that outlaws talking about homosexuality in front of children. Or displaying a rainbow flag in public. That has some suggesting there should be a boycott of the upcoming Winter Olympics in sochi, russia. If russia wants to uphold the olympic spirit, every judgment should be made on the track or in the Swimming Pool or on the balance beam. Peoples sexual orientation. It is the Winter Olympics that are coming up in russia. But his point was clear. As chilly as relations here are with russia, nobody at the white house is suggesting that an olympic boycott should be considered. Thats just not on the table. All right, jon. Thanks so much. Now, to the courtmartial of ft. Hood shooter, major nadel hasan. His lawyers asked him to be removed from active participation in the case. Dan abrams joins us now. They say its unethical to assist him. They say if hes not going to try to avoid the Death Penalty, we cant continue being part of this defense. Meaning, he hasnt been crossexamining witnesses. He admits hes the shooter here. They say hes trying to get the Death Penalty. If thats the case, we dont want to be involved. In all likelihood, the judge is going to instruct them to continue advising. Theyre sitting on the sidelines. Theyre giving him basic advice on the law. And i would suspect that the judge will talk to him, talk to them and eventually say, lets continue this trial. But mr. Hasan, remember, that if you cross any lines, i might put them in and force them to defend you, even though you dont want it. The judge cautious. Doesnt want anything to be appealed later. This trial has cost the u. S. Government 5 million. He is flown in by helicopter to come to court. And hes admitted guilt. And many people want to know why is there even a trial . And he tried to plead guilty in connection with this case. Except, when you talk about a courtmartial and the Death Penaltys on the table, you cant plead guilty. One of the questions here is, what will be the sentence . Guilt is another question. But the process has to move forward. And you are exactly right, that the big concern is, this judge does not want this verdict appealed later, as many Death Penalty verdicts have been in courtmartials. Well see where it goes from here. Dan, thanks very much. Were going to turn to the International Manhunt under way at this hour for a suspected killer and kidnapper on the run. You see him here. A san diego man accused of abducting a teenage girl, killing her mother, possibly her younger brother, as well. And then, setting their home on fire. Abcs brandi hitt joins us from los angeles, with the very latest. Good morning, brandi. Reporter overnight, the amber alert for the missing teen expanded after someone spotted a car that may be the suspects. In an exclusive interview with abc news, his Sister Says Police are searching for the wrong man. Heres a picture of our suspect. Reporter this morning, a possible sighting in the International Manhunt for 40yearold james dimaggio. The man Police Believe kidnapped 16yearold hannah anderson, after allegedly torching this house and killing her mother inside. Overnight, police said someone in oregon spotted a car matching the description of the one they believe dimaggio is driving. Earlier wednesday, investigators had expanded their search to include mexico and canada. Overnight, issued new amber alerts in oregon, washington and nevada. She was the kindest, sweetest soul that you could ever imagine meeting. And completely incapable of hurting anyone. Reporter in an exclusive interview with abc news, dimaggios sister, laura, described his close friendship with the andersons. And believe he, too, is the victim of foul play. Amid the ashes of dimaggios home, detectives found the unidentified remains of a child. Close friends believe its hannahs 8yearold brother, etha he tried to take care of those kids. And he took care of them as if they were his own. Reporter in fact, friends say the children knew dimaggio as uncle jim. But that recently, hannah voiced concerns. I know hannah did say she was a little creeped out when jim did tell her that he had a crush on her. Reporter authorities wont comment on possible motives in this case. But after speaking with detectives, hannahs father made this desperate plea to dimaggio. Im begging you to let my daughter go. Youve taken everything else. Hannah, if you have a chance, you take it. You run. Reporter Laura Dimaggio told me her heart goes out for the anderson family. And shes praying for them, as for the safe return of her brother. Thank you. Now, to a theft caught on camera. The brazen thief, stealing a package, right off a mans front porch in broad daylight. But the victim did not go quietly, even having a little fun at the crooks expense. John muller has the story. Reporter this tall blonde talk the package off the porch. She looked around. Grabbed the package and scurried off in the distance. Looked like sasquatch darting off in the forest. Reporter the arizona man said he had no choice but to take justice into his own hands. She took the safety from my home. Thats something that amazon cant ship out. Reporter the 21yearold said he wasnt satisfied just filing a police report. He became the village male vigilante, crafting this wanted poster. Warning maybes to beware of unique features. Her height is about ya tall. Reporter the email account he collected was bombarded. No leads. Ive gotten marriage proposals. A couple weird political rant ps. Reporter this blonde bandit is the latest in a series of nationwide porch pilferers. Stealing from shrubbery to holiday gifts. As for lake, not only is he enjoying this hunt, he may have gotten the last laugh. Inside that box a couple dozen cups and a couple ice trays. Worth a whopping total of 22 bucks. The hunter has become the hunted because i will find her. Reporter for good morning america, john muller, abc news, new york. He means business. He will find her. I know. Lets get a check of the weather with sam. Sam, i was telling you, for the day yesterday, the amount of rain in the afternoon was unbelievable. Ive never seen it like that.

Theres words being thrown around like lazy, greedy. Theyre the new smurfs. Lazy smurf and greedy smurf. Were going to find out what this battles all about. Were going to turn to the latest on usher. The superstar speaking out. His 5yearold son still in the hospital this morning, recovering after nearly drowning in the family pool. This accident has reignited the bitter custody battle with usher and his exwife. Steve osunsami is in atlanta with the latest. Good morning, steve. Reporter good morning, josh. At one point, this child was under heavy sedation. But his family says he is up and recovering. This morning, usher raymond is speaking out for the first time about his sons neardrowning. Writing in a statement that, i am blessed and fortunate to say that my son, usher v is doing well and is recovering. Im overwhelmed by the outpouring of prayer, love and support for my familys wellbeing. My nephew was in the pool. And he went in. And i couldnt get him. Reporter there was this frantic 911 call, placed by the singers aunt, rena oden, who is out of breath. She was baby sitting monday afternoon, when the boy went under and didnt come back up. The ambulance is here. Reporter the First Responders who answered that call, tell us they believe that usher v was trapped under water for at least two minutes before two contractors who were working inside the home were able to free his hand from a drain at the bottom of the pool and then save his life, giving cpr. Overnight, ushers exwife, tameka raymond, tweeted, im happy my son is doing better, talking and asking for food. She didnt waste a moment, calling her lawyer. Finally, this request, the day after the accident, challenging her exhusbands custody of their two children. Miss raymond would prefer to parent her children rather than nannies or third parties. Reporter she made similar arguments at a custody hearing last near, where she lost. Hes traipsing in with his girlfriend. Reporter in court, usher fought back and said his exwife was unstable and threatened to kill him. But he never called police. I didnt want the boys to know that their father put their mother in jail. Reporter since then, the grammy awardwinning singer has been sharing with the world the joys of his fatherhood. Posting these pictures on facebook the day before the accident. And telling robin last summer, he loves being with his children. Its taking the time to actively be there. Its a dayin dayout process. Reporter in interviews, usher said most of the heat hes taking from his exwife is drama, that comes from being a celebrity. That emergency hearing is scheduled for friday at 2 00 p. M. Josh . Thank you for that, steve. Were going to bring back dan abrams, our chief Legal Affairs anchor. You hate to look at things like this and think of words like leverage. But ushers exwife has leverage for the children. You dont change custody because something horrible happened. What shes saying is this is more than that. Shes saying this has been a substantial change in the circumstances, more broadly, since the initial custody ruling. She says that the caretakers who are there, are a problem. She says that ushers not around. That hes traveling too much. That the kids are going to school too far away. So, shes bringing up a lot of the same arguments that she brought up and lost on earlier. But now, inserting in what happened here, and saying, this is further proof of the problem, in particular, with child care. Lots to prove here. Is there any risk for her, then, in seeking a custody hearing so soon after the fact . When youre deciding custody everything comes into play. Youre talking about whats in the best interest of the child. And so, how the litigation moves forward matters. How they deal with each other when theyre fighting matters. Ill bet you will hear from ushers attorney saying, oh, so the first thing she does, the very first thing she does, is go back to court, rather than first worry about the safety of our child. Okay. Most important thing that matters, the health of usher v. Robin . Now, to the mysterious disappearance of a mother in oakland, california. Shes an investigator in the public defenders office, working on death row cases. And she has been missing since sunday. After receiving a mysterious phone call. Abcs gio benitez has that story for us. Reporter this morning in californias bay area, a desperate search for 50yearold sandra coke, the Ivy League Grad and investigator for the public defenders office, disappeared sunday. For weeks, coke had been looking for her beloved dog, ginny, who disappeared after someone broke into her home in may. She offered 1,000 reward on missing posters. People called in tips. But they went nowhere. Then, over the weekend, a new lead. She told her daughter she was going out to meet someone who might have information about her dog. Reporter her family says she left the house to meet the caller but never came back. Theres no way that sandra would go out at 7 00 and be gone for more than a half hour. Reporter cokes daughter, just 15 years old, tracked her moms work and personal phones using a gps app. It was still there, sending a signal the next morning. Both apparently had been dumped. One on a richmond, california, highway, the other near oakland. Police found cokes car two miles from her home. Its especially upsetting to think that she might be in danger and that there is foul play here. Reporter on wednesday, investigators took bags of evidence from cokes home, including her laptop computers, hoping to find clues. They wont say cokes work, win release on death row, or the search for her missing dog, has anything to do with her disappearance. Shes a very special person. Very unusually kind and generous and bighearted. Reporter cokes family and friends are vowing to keep searching until they found her. For good morning america, gio benitez, abc news, new york. We join her family and friends in hopes that its going to happen. Amen. Sam . Lets get to the boards. We have a lot to talk about here. In the west, we barely touched on this. This area of High Pressure thats inland and the low thats moving in. The basic thing you need to know about what happens here, is its a dry and windy pattern. Winds not good for the fire situation thats there. In the northeast, we look at the rain, moving from philly to boston.

Heres where the thunderstorms are popping today. Oklahoma city, wichita, in the bulls eye there. Amarillo and lubbock. A look at the big board. We have a few scattered showers here.

Second later, he writes, greedy and lazy. No one is saying what the exact reason is. Stallone made reference to being greedy. Bruce willis probably asked for more money. And they werent willing to give it to him. Reporter some believe that stallones tweet was more like the action of a teenage girl, than a buttkicking hero.

Joining us in times square, we have a heat index for you. Its getting hot in here. Were going to start with a move by one restaurant that may be dividing a nation. A houston restaurant has banned children under 9 years old during dinner hours. Let the discussion ensue. Abcs Rebecca Jarvis has more on a rather controversial policy. Theres nothing we can do about that. Thats a child. Reporter its a reallife sex in the city moment. But unlike the tv version the kids behaving badly at the rainy days cafe in lake stevens, washington, promptly got the boot. I told her she was going to have to leave. That we had just paid good money to have our carpets cleaned. Reporter taking the mess to facebook. Writing a couple of ladies came in today. And this is the mess their children made. I put it on facebook for my regular customers who are neat and tidy and have small children. Its not fair to them for being recognized for the good work they do. Reporter her post going viral, prompting a ferocious facebook debate. Including, rainy, you fail. News flash, youre in the industry to serve. Suck it up and serve and clean. Many coming to mcduffs defense. Yay for you. Im a teacher who loves children. But some families have no behavior expectationatios for t children in restaurants. Everybodys allowed to live their own life. Thats what were trying to do. Reporter who is really in the right . I think a flatout ban of children in restaurants is way too far. Its way too extreme. Sometimes its parents that want to get away from their kids. And they have a date night and theres kids running around. Its a nowin situation. Reporter mcduffs not the first to ban kids. At la fisheria restaurant, they live by the no 7 by 7 00 p. M. Rule. While it may be leaving a bad taste in some peoples mouths, for others, its their favorite off the menu edition. For good morning america, Rebecca Jarvis, abc news, new york. And the discussion i take my kids out to dinner a lot, living here in the city. But they behave badly, we leave. And i think its okay, to say kids dont belong in this restaurant. Theres certain atmospheres that kid disrupts. Its the familys but not the restaurants responsibility. The parents not paying attention to their kids is theyre not going to Pay Attention to the kids and make the situation better. Everyone needs to remember that everyone in the restaurant has a right to have a wonderful meal and a wonderful time. And theyre all paying for it. If you want your kids to behave, if you let them run around, let them run around at home. A lot of people, i do want to say, torrid of criticism poured in. A posting on facebook. I love how you state were a family restaurant. Just dont bring your family. Bring your wellbehaved family. So that everybody can enjoy. Oh, sam. I was raised by a marine corps colonel, ladies and gentlemen. If i did something wrong in a restaurant there has to be order. There has to be discipline. Weigh in. You know our thoughts.

Kelly cutrone was speaking out about ultrathin models, giving her take on the real reason theyre so popular. Abcs linsey davis has the story. Reporter the fashion industry is constantly under fire for sending models that appear to be stick figures down the runway. Very condescending and rude. Reporter now, one of fashions major insiders is speaking out. The no nonsense publisher and judge of americas next top model kelly cutrone, says Society Needs to blame itself. We like to think of ourselves as a modern society, america. But we have very narrowminded beliefs about what is beautiful. My take on it is that american women want to see thin models. If the public thought that 400pound purple people were attractive, fashion people would be the first person there to make the garment. Reporter when they saw the real women campaign, they saw the sales go up. It was a shock. Having a real Woman Campaign was saying, like, were doing green people for halloween. People were checking it out and talking about it. Reporter some of the big campaigns in the fashion industry appear to be expanding their lines along with the waistlines. H m has a plussize model for one of its ad campaigns pep and highend designers, like michael kors and calvin klein are making plussized pieces for their lines. Do you think the fashion industry is starting to embrace the larger size woman now . I think they will throw a bone to the media. I think the fashion industry is behind. Theres not enough diversity in ethnicity in models, anywhere in america. Reporter if the public thinks her words seem a little too cutting i think you need to put some gratitude in your attitude, girl.

What made you gravitate toward the script. It was almost like an origin. The prequel to the story of steve jobs that everybody came to know. I didnt realize that the man that is responsible for the ipod, the ipad, the iphone, was fired from apple. And that there was this entire story that happened before kind of the legacy of what we know came about. And we talked to your costar, Ashton Kutcher. He talked about how intimidating it was to play someone like steve jobs. You had equally difficult task because youre playing someone who is watching you playing him. And hes incredible. How did you handle that . You know, i admire and love the man that i portrayed in this film, Steve Wozniak. He is working on Something Else. I would love for him to see the film in its entirety and comment on it. Hopefully i have a chance to meet him after. You approached this role with admiration and respect to this man and nothing else. Thats right. I love Steve Wozniak before i began the process. I cherish him and admire him after i played him. So, it really is one of those roles that it was amazing to sink your teeth into. Before we go, were going the play a game about gadgets. We thought it would be fun. My names in the word gadget. Ipod or walkman . Ipod. Iphone or blackberry. Dvd or vcr . Vcr. Laptop or desktop. Laptop. Im agreeing with you on all this. Josh gad, thank you for stopping by. And jobs opens nationwide august 16th. Ready .

Nicole who was . Because he did tell me you were in last place. Michael because your husband is going to come home and try to make the professional Football Player look as bad as he can to build his self esteem and himself to you. So i was in next to last place [laughter] nicole ok, all right, fair enough. I do have some news, i know youve been hearing you havent gone home yet, but michael i havent been back to l. A. In a while. Nicole i just happened to overhear the guys talking, i do have some news to break to you. Michael what . Nicole you are no longer on their Fantasy Football League. Michael they kicked me out the league . Nicole well michael how they going to kick me out the league . [laughter] nicole listen, i dont know details. I dont know details. What i do think is that youre in new york now michael that has nothing to do with it nicole youre a new yorker, they wanted it to be an l. A. Thing. Michael i know what it is nicole this is so awkward. Michael this is the problem, your husband is intimidated by me thats it because this is the problem, the problem is, i told them after last year that i was going to come back this year and win the whole thing and they knew i was right because id done it as a professional. And i will definitely win fantasy. [laughter] so, i got kicked off the league and didnt even know it . Nicole yes. Michael then they send you here to break to news to me . Nicole i think theyre going to give you the details next time michael theyre not going to do it in person, i guarantee you that. Nicole at least now you can sit it for a few days. Michael im not going to calm down. They sent a pretty lady to tell me thinking im going to be cool with it. Im not cool with it fellows. Ill make a special trip to l. A. I may with nicole. Nicole if you do get back in the league, are you doing to use your name. Because i do know your name. Michael what was my name . Tell them my name. Nicole can i say it . Michael say it. Nicole wait is it make cash michael no, no, cant say that one no, no, no. [laughter] nicole i dont know the name. Michael no, you cant say that name nicole i didnt think so. Michael that was was somebody elses name and they were trying to recruit me for their team, but i had my own team. My team were named the gap stars. What you laughing about . Im sensitive about my gap. [laughter] no, my team was named the gap stars, but yes, you cant say that other name. [laughter] nicole ok, all right. Forget it. Michael so im curious, youre in great shape, youve had kids, looked like you havent had one baby. Nicole thank you. By the way, so does your wife. Michael yeah, nicole looks great. She has five. Nicole nicole, let me tell you something, nicole murphy, fiance, she, i [laughter] michael hey, spends my money, shes my wife. [laughter] cheers and applause] nicole this is true, this is true. Well, we all had dinner a few months ago and let me tell you something i was standing this close to her. Her body is unbelievable. Its unbelievable. She has the west body, im telling you, of any woman ive ever seen. Michael i know. [laughter] nicole she does. Im telling you, every time i see her im like whoa michael is so lucky im telling you. Shoael all i got to say is is right. Shes hot. Shes very hot. Nicole she is. Michael i think shes tried yoga, but do you do yoga . Nicole i dont do yoga, i do the Tracy Anderson method which i think kelly does too. I used to do yoga. Michael you did the hot yoga . Nicole yes, yes. Michael did you like that . Nicole yes. By the way, i can always be in heat. Always. [laughter] michael so that means you plan on having more kids . [laughter] i can always be in heat. Nicole im always cold. Im always cold. And no matter what, i can always have the heat on. Michael ok. Now thats a better way to put it. Nicole yes, yes. Michael because gelman is a yogi. Look at him, his neck is just moving in directions ive never seen. But no, a lot of people, you know matt and sam alvarez. Theyre always trying to get me to do this hot yoga, i always say no. But hopefully theyre watching the show, hot yoga, there are no more benefits to hot yoga than doing regular yoga, outside it makes your muscles probably looser and you can bend more. And this is from reuters. So if its on the internet, its true. But no physical benefits outside of flexibility and stuff like that to doing hot yoga. But a lot of people think that there are. Nicole its interesting that you mention this, because part of the method of Tracy Anderson is to work out in the heat as well. Now, i dont know the exact benefits of it, as you say theres none. But i do like the idea [laughter] i do like the cry dee of just sweating and getting it all out. Michael yeah, maybe its a cleansing thing. Nicole yeah, more of a cleansing thing. Michael i can just go sit in the steam room. Nicole but you want to stretchby the way the heat does help you relax, you know that. So maybe it helps you relax and get into those positions. By the way, i have no idea what im talking about, am i right . Gelman theyre saying it doesnt burn anymore calories. Michael what do you think . Nicole its good for your muscles. Gelman its cleansing, but it doesnt necessarily burn more calories. Michael it helps you cleansing and loosen up your muscles, helps you relax. I get the same benefit, seriously, in a steam room sitting back like that, because im relaxed and im loose and im chilling without the grunting. [laughter] but then heating up the room when you work out . Nicole thats what we do. Michael i had to do this work out with kelly, the a. K. Technique, they put the heat on. Thats ridiculous. Im already hot working out. I got on layers, i go with sleeves on because i like to work out with sleeves. Im almost butt naked by the time we finish the work out because i keep taking stuff on. Nicole its good to cleanse. Michael ill remember that. But nicole with the perfect body has no complaints. [laughter] im joking, she does complain. [laughter] not about me. Nicole yes i do. Michael and also, do you sleep a lot . Nicole do i i do love to sleep. Michael ok, how many hours a night . Nicole would i like to . Michael yes. Nicole i would to sleep a good eight, nine hours a night. Michael how many do you actually sleep . Nicole five. Its fine. To sleep more. Michael kids or wake up . Nicole wake up around 5 00 every morning. Michael always been like that . Nicole always been an early riser. Michael when he was younger i could always sleep all day. Nicole not me. I always wanted to be one of these teenagers that woke up at 1 00, carefree, chilling. I was the only 16yearold up at 5 00 a. M. Michael what time did you go to bed . Nicole well michael we used to watch your show. I know you were out late. [laughter] out late and up at 5 00 a. M. You know what . They try to say sleep loss explains some of weight gain for people. They did a study. Saying that people who did not sleep and had fatigue had that evaluate ty your appetite. Which means your cravings. If you dont get a lot of sleep it makes people crave and threw off their appetites so they ate more basically and created overweight and obesity. Nicole ok, ive never heard that before. Michael me neither until i just daily newsing in the today. Thats interesting to me, because i think i sleep enough but i dont at the same time. I wish i could sleep more but i cant stay in bed. Nicole do you wake up in the middle of the night . Michael yes. Nicole me too. Nicole do you get up in the middle of the night . Michael im getting to the age that if i dont, there will be a mess in the bed. [laughter] nicole im not there yet. Michael yeah, youre not there yet, im there. Where im like my dad now. Im becoming my father. Nicole see . Im not there, because i still look at my mom and im like ok, well im not there yet, thats kind of your issue. Michael so you just wake up and layin bed, just awake . Nicole i wake up and i get up for a minute, and then i come back and im chilling. Michael you get up for what . If you dont have to do anything. Nicole ill tell you what i do thats so bad. I get up and i check my phone and i cant go back to sleep which is the worst thing. The worst. Michael youre a phone addict. Youre addicted to the phone . Nicole , im like i have to do something. And what i have within doing lately, which is awful, ive been falling asleep with the tv on. Michael you cant get a good sleep with the t on. Nicole no, you cannot. The nights that i dont i have a completely different day. Michael really . Nicole yeah, yeah. Michael did you fall asleep with the tv on last night . Nicole i did, yeah. I did. Michael see . If you hadnt i would probably seem a lot more clearer. I cant get a good night sleep with the f the on because all that distraction, im in a dream and the next thing im tom selleck in a ferrari with t. C. In a chopper and i wake up and magnum p. I. Is on. But im like five hours. Last night i tried to go to bed early. Nicole what time . Michael i shut off the tv at 11 00. Nicole what time did you wake up . Michael i woke up the first time at 3 00. Nicole did you get up . Michael of course i had to nicole you had to, i got it. Michael i had to. So i got up at 3 00 and then, i always wake up naturally like at 6 456789 nicole ok, all right. Michael but even if i go to bed at 2 00, i wake up at 6 45. Nicole im the exact same way, the exact same way. Well, have you guys heard of this . Yesterday, there was a shark found on the subway. This is real. Michael sharknado is here nicole this is real.

Never seen a shark walk on their back fins . Nicole i dont even know what i would do. Michael see, that has to do with the sharknado. Thats probably the Movie Company saying hey, to the intern, well give you 20 if you take this shark nicole yes, yes, take the shark, put it in the subway. Michael slide it under the seat. Then they called the paper for it. Because theres no way a shark is going to amble into the subway. If you have a shark at home and if the shark passes away you dont take it to the subway. Nicole i think this shark is at furor feet. Michael a four foot shark . How do you get in there with nobody seeing it . Nicole thats what im saying. Gelman back pack. Michael maybe that shark had on a suit, and it got robbed, they found him butt naked under the seat. The sharknado is real. Nicole its true. Michael we have a big lotto, the big powerball.

Nicole 14, yeah . But its winning. That is winning. Gelman between 18 of us. [laughter] were going to let it ride. Were going to let it ride into the next jackpot. Because otherwise wed have to start michael because i know you gelman, hes got that calculator, that means i get 83 cents, 48 cents after taxes, i want my money now. So youre going to let it ride on the next one . Because there were three winners. Two in new jersey and one in minnesota . Minneapolis .

You know, i hear you have a very special relationship with your grandfather. Tell us about that. Incredible. You know, my grandfather really put a lot of love and energy into me. And we were always close, from the time i was born. You know, he was really adamant about teaching me discipline, followthrough, integrity, honesty. He comes from the bahamas, and at age 9 he had to be the man of his family. Michael wow. And take care of his mother and Four Brothers and sisters, at 9. Went to nassau, got work, went from there to florida and got work and created this life so that my mother could attend college, was the first in her family to attend college. She went to howard university, studied at the Shakespeare Institute in england, and you know, made it possible, obviously for me to do what im doing and now for my daughter zoe, so i pay a lot of honor and tribute to my grandfather. Nicole and youre very close with your mother too, and your mother and your grandfather. Oh yes, extremely. I was a mamas boy, no doubt, no doubt. Michael now, that relationship, have you taken anything from that with your own kids . Oh yeah, zoe and i have an incredible relationship. We speak every day, you know, we spend a lot of time together and she lived with me from age 11 to 21. So, i had some very interesting years. Nicole yeah. [laughter] very interesting years. But shes my best friend. Nicole yeah, did you notice the relationship change . Because i feel like, once i hit probably 25, 26, my relationship with my dad and, you know, he was my dad of course, but we didnt live in the same house. Right. Nicole so once i kind of hit the age 26 and i had my own kids, it was like our relationship changed, and we had each nderstanding for other, and it changed. Do you feel that way at all . At all with zoe now that shes an adult . I mean, its always been amazing. There were the years like, you know, 17, 18, 19 where, she had to go and kind of feel herself. Nicole do her thing. Do her thing and i was cool with that, because i left home when i was 15. But, were closer and closer every day. And yes, as shes getting older, ive felt it coming back, shes going to be 25 in december. But, you know, we cant get enough of each other, its a beautiful thing.

Dr. Ian is breaking down extreme diets. Rachael then. Can ricky make this womans room fit for a lady . And my name on the showw is laur webberspencer. Rachael ovever 30 years aft laura and luke said i do, Genie Francis is back on the set of general hospital. Its so embarrass approximating. Rachael wow [cheers and applause] rachael hey, everybody, welcome. So were a couple months into the new year and that means sadly for most of us that our new years resolutions have pretty much all fallen by the waste side at this point. Weve fallen off our diets and many people start looooking for quick fix, the extreme weight loss plan or the detox plan to get back on track before theyre too far into the new year. Today were goingo break down the extreme diets that are out there and find out whether or not from a doctor we should give them a shot. Please welcomeack to our show, the author o of a diet, too, except his is New York Times number one selling diet, shred, the diet. Rachael before we get into the trendy diets and i have a girlfriend who is on one of these, on again, off again kind of thing. Im curious about all three of these. Before we do that, lets recap for everybody the shred plan this, is not just a diet, six weeks, two inches, four sizes and sets you u up for a lifetim plan. Simply shred says youat regular food, dieting should not be expensive. Four meals a day with three snacks, you never go hungry. You lose weight this the short term, its a lifestyle plan. You can live this way forever. It is easy and makes sense, it is healthy, theey is healthy. Rachael i love that, guys, check it out. New york times best seller for a reason. [cheers and applause] thank you, thank you. Rachael now lets get into it. When were choosing a diet, what are the biggest mistakes were making or how do we choose between the diets out there . One of the biggest problem system this, People Choose things that are restrictive. They eliminate so many foods, you cant stay this way forever. Rachael you wont live like that forever. You tend to bifrj out. Choose a program that is anying to challenge you, you have to be challenged, but a program you can stick to and not fall off of in two or three weeks. Rachael to keep the whole of your life. Dont choose a diet, choose a plan for your life. Absolutely. Rachael what are we looking at here . Is the first diet is the fruitariian diet. 75 of food by weight must be a fruit. The other part must be from a seed or a vegan, very complicated in that sense. The reason people like it, you can lose weight very quickly. Yeah, you are eating mostly water. You are eating fruit. Absolutely. Ashton kutcher has been a fruitarian and tried the program. He had gastric problems. Rachael i would imagine. The issue with the fruit diet, the major issue is this. People lose weight, because there is so much sugar, fruit have natural sugar, you send your insulin through the roof. You get big insulin spikes, that will cause weight gain. The other frb with the diet, you are not eating all these things that can do things, like meat. Lch, im not saying overdo it on meat. Meat provides protein and iron. So it says you cant have that. What i feel like is you got to be careful, but you can make the fruitarian diet healthier. How about that . Rachael sure. If you are going down that road eating mostly fruits, i would add vegetables. Absolutely. I choose dark greenleafy vegetables, lots of fiber. Veggies have carbs, but the carbs are different. Mixing the carbs and fiber can make a difference as how far the blood sugar will rise inside your body. Rachael you are controlling the insulin problem. You are adding vegetables, dark leafy green and protein. Legumes are great. Chick peas and lentils are great n nonprotein source of food. Rachael if you are thinking about approximate trying that, make these adjustments, add in the protein. There are few examples we have reported where people stay longterm on a diet like this tis difficult. Rachael it doesnt s sound realistic to me. To me. Your choice. The cave man diet, the idea is dont eat what the cave man wouldnt eat. Throw it all away. They take away rachael i dont know where i can buy a brontasaurus, a side of fred flintstone. Where do i get that . Big turkey leg. Et me explain something, take away refined sugar, legumes and grains. R rhael you cant havave legume . That is what you takeaway. Rachael they are only eating meat. Largely meat, which is an issue. Rachael all meat and no grain. No grains whatsoever. That is a problem, you are getting rid of whole grains, which are full of nutrients. A lot of celebrities do it. Reportedly matthew mcconaughey. Rachael he was doing that for short term as an actor to portray a character. I know him, hes man thatoves life and all things in moderation. Hes using it. Rachael very fit and healthy guy and loves everything. Megan fox has reportedly been on it. Remember something, if you eat this kind of diet, you take away your calcium. Rachael bad for women, especially. Osteoporosis. M can also get it. You are eating so much meat, you limited the space for fiber. Rachael it cant be good for your colon. T much meat is bad for your colon. We are both carnivores, too much meat is bad, it can be fatty, bad for heart disease. Rachael artery is the number one killer of women. For men also. The problem with the meat, it can slow your digestive system. You are tanking on the meat. No restriction and you are not having fiber. So lets do an alternative. Rachael okay. In my program, for example, in the shred diet, i add things, you can have meat, you can have fiber and enj these things and get your calcium. What i want to do in the back of the book, we have different recipes, i wanted to show you an easy smoothie. Rachael okay. A tasty and healthy smoothie. You can help me make it. Rachael sure. You have fear of blender. Blender malfunction. It is not very smooth. We have yogurt. Rachael yogurt. Full of calcium. Rachael i love greek yogurt. Great, right . Calcium in yogurt. We have strawberries, and you can mix with blberries. We have milk in here. Cuhave almond milk, low fat milk. We have flax seed. Rachael flax seed is awesome. Cubuy a tortilla chip to pasta to bread with flax seed and you can buy flax seed it can fight heart disease, cancer, diabetes. Rachael my mom puts it on oatmeal everymorning, she is big in flax seed. A lot of people dont like the oil, mix it with things, you cant taste it. Honey. Rachael a drizzle of honey. I love berries, this is strawberries, a lot of fiber and antioxidants. Rachael you have goodlooking berries for this time of year. A little banana. Half a banana. Then put like rachael two cubes of ice. Maybe cold, my kids love the ice part tis chilled. Rachael you should make smoothies at home with the family. Freeze the berries and have them on hand all the time and the berries arehe ice. We make this at home twice a week tis fun for the kids. Mix it up here. Rachael very successful blending, by the way. Right; right. That is why you do what you do. Okay. That is done. You can see how fast we did that. Rachael all right. Great nutrition. Now taste that, that is just rachael id love tasting it, it sounds delicious. They skimped on your strawberries. Sorry. Cheers. Mmm mmm all day long. Rachael thats delicious. Under 200 calories. Rachael under 200 calories, guys. Truly delicious. The last program is calleded the tongue patch diet. Rachael ive read about this, i did not believe it was real. Tell them what this is. I will say a doctor invented this program. The idea is very simple. They sew a patch to your tongue, a mesh patch. The idea isis that when you eat its painful and therefore you are not going to be eating solid food because you dt want to do that, you will b drinking. The appeal to the program is that you will be consuming a lot fewer calories and you are going to lose weight quickly. Now the idea is the doctor also prepares what i call an elixir that you drink, obviously you only drink now. The elixir has 750 calories. I will date myself, this is comparable to people in the old days wiring their jaws shut. You sip through a straw. Here is the key. What is the magic number of calories, you should be consuming whehen you lose weigh or per day . I decided to demonstrate that with myself. I will use myself as guinea pig. Bmr. Yourasil metabollic rate. When you are at rest, how much energy is your body burning or consuming that, is your bmr. If you stood here, you are burning calories and functioning. Calculate my bmr. We have a nice formula to show. The formula for women, your bmr is 655 plus your weight in pounds, inches and years. It looks complicated, but its not that complicated. This formula, there are appapproximates online to use. Men that, is the bmr. The number 66 plus the number you get from the calculation. We doll mine. I weigh 185 pounds. Rachael right. How tall am i . 62. Rachael yeah. How old am i . Rachael i dont know, how old are you . How old do i look . Rachael 35. There is my girl. Im 43 actually. Rachael yeah so those are my numbers. Rachael your number. Calculate it. Calculate it, that means my bmr is 8 rachael that is so cool. 1865. 95 calories per day before that is your break even. Break even. Break even. Right. Its great. Rachael awesome. When you talk about weight loss, increase that bmr, active mr, when you start moving around at work ouout, cuget 2500, whic means break even at 2500 calories. Rachael that is awesome. Iveeard when i go to the gym each day, between 4 and 500, depending what im doing. Sure. Rachael that is extra, you know what i mean, can have that much extra. We are going to the gym togetether. We are, we are. Im serious. Anyway, the bottom line here is when choosing a program, choose something that you can really do. Dont go extreme. Extreme may work in the short term, but could be dangerous to it your health and wont work for the longterm. Rachael it wont be with you for the longterm like the shred diet. I say the same about cooking, if people dont like to cook. Closese your eyes, if it approximate you can envision yourself being successful, you will be able to cook it. If you choose a disxet close your eyes, can you live the rest of your life on it. And beonest about it. Rachael thats right. Love you. Love you. Rachael thank you to dr. Ian. Shred number one best seller, stores now. You can get itn amazon.

Rachael these people went to your wedding, sort of. They feel like they know me. Rachael exactly. I think that is the thingbout daytime drama, you really feel youre in the familys homes during the daytime hours, often the kids are out to school, they feel that intimacy like you are their next door neighbor, right . They do. It brings back memories for them. They sat and watch today with their grandmother or evokes family memories. Rachael generations. Generations have sat and tched the show. The show is 50 years old. Rachael amazing. Yes. Rachael so many daytime dramas under the gun and under the knife and disappeared over the years, what a testament to gh and the team and the writers to be around after 50 years in television is something.

When you try and explain in a nutshell the storyline of a drama, you sound crazy, right . Yes. Rachael its true, though, its true. Give us some of the storylines going on right now on the show. Going on right now, that is hard. I can tell you that my name on the show is laura vining, webber, spencer, casadine, spencer. Im not sure about the last spencer, we did get divorced.

More saving. More doing. Thats the power of the home depot. Right now, this abbey vanity combo is a special buy. Just 299. [cheers and applause] rachael guys, welcome back. So whats for dinner tonight is new obsession of mine, i love it. Im slightly obsessed with devilled eggs. Stuffed eggs of any kind really. Ive written 2530 stuffed egg recipes in my life. I thought to myself,he old joke, which came first, the chicken or the egg . I was thinking, hey, why should the egg be having all the fun . What about devilled chicken . Everybody loves buffalo chicken, that is just spicy chick hadden. This is my devilled chicken breast and i serve on buttered toast points. It is delicious. [cheers and apppplause] rachael delicious so start by pounding out your chicken breast, guys. Pound them out to half an inch thi, give them a few whacks. Then salt and pepper both sides, brown them in olive oil and before they totally finish cooking through, in a pan probablyix minutes or so and they will be in there seven or eight all day. Pull them out. And let them rest and theyll continue to cook, i wilill keep them warm by putting foil over the top. You get carryover cooking. You dont want to overcook them or you dry them out. Down in the pan with the drippin from the chicken, add butter. And then in devilled eggs, i use grated onion in the egg and grated garc n. This dish i will use nice mild shallot, shallo shallots, start swirling that arnd and i chop next to the stove so i can drop stuff into the pan as i need it. So after the shallots get going, chop up a fresno chili pepper. I always put a little bit of fresh chili and hot sauce in the devilled eggs. I garnish the devilled eggs, fresno is not too spicy, cut in rings, they look like bulls eyes and at halloween, put a dot of black olivend they look like evil eyeball. Delicious. So guys, the heat in c chili peppers in general lives in the ribs and the seeds. To make any chili pepper less spicy, more palettable for everyone, take out the seeds and ribs and turn back the heat level of the chili. Fresnos are mild, spice index goes. Chop and drop that. And then few cloves of garlic. And now well season this up with salt and pepper. Ill let this cook out. When we come back, well finish making the devilled gravy.

Who with almays eye makeupccoon removers. . Its easy to remove the makeup soap and water can leave behind. And theyre gentle on my eyes. [cheers and applause] rachael guys, were making devilled chicken. I forgot to mention the chicken and devilled gravy on toast is in the comfort food issue of our magazine. I write 10 30minute meals, 30 minutes or less with stepbystep pictures, irite 10 of them for approximate every single issue of the magazine. Nine more ideas, in and out of the kitchen in half an hour. To our devilled gravy, which we started by browning up chicken, to the chicken drippings, we add butter, melt the butter down, add gaic, salt and pepper. Lift up the flavor from the bottom of the pan. Use white wine or dry vermouth. My husband and i are red wine drinkers. Once you open, keep in the fridge. Dry vermouth is winene with aromatic, fortified wine. Great choice if you want to keep wine to use in your recipe. Deglaze the pan with vermouth. It is gat if youou like martinis. Hello. Then you not maybe this early i the morning reallyly. They are like, i dont know, i take one. Anyway, you deglaze the pan with white vermouth or dry white wine. Lift up the drippings and then add in chickentock to formhe base for your gravy. Ere going to season that gravy up, again wall the flavors that go into devilled eggs. Switch back to my whisk, get that incorporated. To teaspoons of paprika or twothirds of a palmful to make it devilishly red. Teaspoon of dry mustard or stir in dijon if you prefer. And i go crazy with the hot sauce, my husband and i like things really spicy. It has a dot top on it. Put in a few drops, i unscrew the top and pour in a few tablespoo dochlt as much as you kelike. Then i add in worcestershire, everything but the kitchen sink in the worcestershire, as well. Ill get that later. Let me get a clean whisk to mix that up now. At this point, you mix the gravy together, let it thicken up and let the flavor mbine. Give it a taste, see if it is spicy enough, see if you have enough of the hot sauce or worcestershire, it turns out devilishly red, it has gre flavors of devilled eggs. Oh, its going to be so good. Let the chicken finish cooking through, well serve it up right after this. [cheers and applause] [ male announcer ] we all deserve a good nights sleep. Thankfully, theres zzzquil.

Rachael guys, this is a spicy 30minute meal from our magazine, the march issue of the magazine. I love devilled eggs, if you do, too, you will love devilled chicken. Spicy grave we stard, paprika, hot sasauce, garlic, ornion, chi pepper, worcestershire, all down in the sauce and shallots. It is absolutely delicious. Here is how i serve it up, super simple. Take some toast, using put your broiler on and use a cookie sheet and bake them at the same time. Toast it on both sides. Then cut from corner to corner and make toast points and melt butter in the microwave or stove top and paint brush it on there, you get nice even distribution of melted butter. There we go. It makes a nice bed for the chicken, it will catch the drippings. Turn this kind of sideways. Then put that devilled chicken down over the top. And then spoon that devilishly good gravy allown over that. [cheers and applause] rachael my goodness, that looks good. Sprinkle green on the top. Chopped flatleaf parsley over the top. It is done easy and delicious.

Rachael we want him to do a project for us, for us ladies at the show. All the ladies here, they would dread going to the ladies room because approximate you couldnt shut the door to the stall and successfully do what you had to do once the door was closed because it was so tiny. We are anxious to see what you did. Lets check it out. Yeah. My team is here, were ready to kill it. Whoa put a whole second floor up here. My inspiration foror this room french, parlor, a room the girls come in and feel it is like a spa. I got it all figured out up here. A great option to go over existing floor, vinyl plank flooring is easy to install, super inexpensive, easy to clean and makes a huge impact in a room. I wanted to create a one of a kind piece for the bathroom, you can do this for any room. I go on craigslist, they have a section that is free, fre stuff. Free is for me. Drop a sink in here, drop a sink in here. Plenty of room for ststorage, i get new knobs and then this will be a total original. Here is a super quick tip. Grout is porous. Stain your grout. Wash off the tile and voila, rachael, you will love this. I went with d lights throughout. What does that mean . Were green. 75 less energy, less heat and they last 10 times longer than regular bulbs. Remember the doors we had before, those werent doors, these aredoors. Notice the trim . Spe things up a little. All right, ladies, its finally done, come on in. [cheers and applause] i have to say this is bigger than some new york city apartment, plenty of room to stretch out. The problem .
