You got that good morning, america, from the dancing champs. They arrived here moments ago, after flying all night long. Were going to have the big afterparty coming up this morning. And everyone, also this morning, all revved up about the powerball. So much excitement about that 500 million jackpot. There we see suzanne vega right there. Ill bet robin has a couple tickets at home. And amy robach, weve all seen your tickets. Does everybody here have tickets . Were in. Well let you know how that works out for us on thursday. Also, we have plenty of news as well. That big battle on capitol hill, over who will replace Hillary Clinton as secretary of state. We have Abcs Martha Raddatz here to weigh in on it. You see u. N. Ambassador susan rice right there. She had a tough day on capitol hill yesterday. Also coming up, our exclusive oneonone. The noholdsbarred interview with brat pitt. What he has to say about turning 50 and bringing up the kids with angelina. And we begin with the major storms let to hit the west. Lets go right to sam for the very latest. Yeah, this is the season where you start to get the storms into Northern California and the west. This one is a stackup here. Look at this 3d view. Look at the ripples in the clouds. This is the first storm on the coastline. The rain in california today. To the west, thats the second storm. Over here, on the curve of the earth, thats the third storm. All three carry heavy amounts of rain. 110mileperhour wind gusts on the mountain tops. 70 to 80mileperhour gusts on the shoreline. Locally, nine inches of rain. North of San Francisco, your rerks ureka, redding, six inches of rain. The gusty winds, each time one of those lows makes a punch on the coastline. Again, the worst weather from medford to San Francisco. Airport delays starting today at San Francisco all the way through to the weekend. Well tell everybody what they get out of the storm in just a minute. Thanks, sam. First, the powerball fever. The 500 million jackpot is climbing before tonights drawing. And Steve Osunsami is on the scene where it will happen in tallahassee, florida. Good morning, steve. Reporter good morning, george. This is the studio where the magic could happen tonight. And it feels like ft. Knox. These machines and the dozens of balls were pulled from a locked vault. And only a select few people will be allowed in this room when the drawing takes place tonight. This game is on. This is obviously the winning ticket. Reporter the people who run the Powerball Lottery tell us that today they expect to sell more than 105,000 2 tickets a minute. When its all said and done, thats at least 189 million tickets for tonights 500 million jackpot, more than double the number sold for saturdays drawing where no one won. Its hard to imagine how the tickets are selling because were in this territory so rarely. Its the stratosphere of jackpots. Reporter that explains whats happening at minimarts and gas stations across the country. Where millions of americans with champagne wishes and caviar dreams are lining up to buy tickets. Im going to win it. This is a winner. Im going to the bahamas. Ill be paying off my house. Reporter at this outpost in arizona, bordering two states where the powerball is not for sale, the line was endless, with californians and nevadans, trying to get in on the action. Oh, id say the line has to be about 3, 3 1 2 hours. Reporter at the studio, where the numbers will be drawn, there are cameras everywhere, spying on workers as they ready machines. Lottery officials in several states watching these feeds in realtime. Anyone who enters or leaves the gau vault is documented. And workers who handle the lottery balls wear gloves. Worried that human touch can change what numbers are drawn. If there is a single winner who chooses the cash option, the payout is a very comfortable, george, 327 million. Okay. Before taxes, after all. Steve, thanks very much. The lottery balls are so loud. Hes like in a wind tunnel talking like that. What are you guys going to do with the money . Share it with you. Split it. Thank you. Oh, thats so nice. Thank you. Im not sharing it with you. Wow. Just kidding. Of course, i am. All right. Ill definitely share it with sam. Thanks, thanks. Now to the battle brewing over who will be the nerks secretary of state. No final decision from president obama. The frontrunner is susan rice, the u. N. Ambassador. And she ran into a buzzsaw yesterday on capitol hill, when she met with republican senators critical of her nomination. Take a look. The concerns i have today are greater than they were before. And were not even close to getting the basic answers. I want to say that im more troubled today. We are significantly troubled by many of the answers. Abcs Jonathan Karl is covering all this from washington. Jon, on sunday, it looked like some of the senators, graham and mccain, had softened their opposition. But not after the meeting yesterday. What went wrong in that room . Reporter once again, they clashed over what rice said about the attack on the u. S. Consulate in benghazi, libya. In the days after the attack. Sources in the meeting said that rice started off by acknowledging that some of what she said was not true. But she presented evidence that that came directly from the cia, everything that she said. The senators responded by accusing both her and the cia of shading it for political reasons. Rice, as you can imagine, forcefully denied that. And, george, so did the acting cia director, who was with her in the meeting. The republican senators just didnt buy it. Jon, the white house insists president obama has not made the decision to nominate ambassador rice for secretary of state. But they also say that this opposition isnt going to make any difference in that decision. Reporter theyve been consistent in saying that. And rice herself has told people she had no idea whether or not the president will nominate her. The white house tells me she is very much the leading candidate. And Hillary Clinton, friends of Hillary Clinton say, that they expect her to leave immediately after the president s first term is over, in early january. So time is really running out on that, george. I would expect a decision on this very soon. Certainly well before christmas. Rice will be meeting with more senators today . Reporter thats right. Including bob corker, another big critic, who said shes better suited to be the dnc chairman. The chairman of the Democratic Party than the secretary of state. Shes not shying away from her critics. Another tough meeting ahead. Thanks, jon karl. Lets get more from abcs security correspondent, martha raddatz. Martha, this comes at a critical time. Not only is secretary of state clinton leaving. Also, the secretary of defense, leon panetta. And of course David Petraeus out at the cia. All these vacancies are happening when theres a lot of hot spots in the world bubbling up. There are, george. This is a critical time. The election may be over. But look ahead. You have iran, who is trying to acquire a nuclear weapon. You have north korea, theres Satellite Photos just out showing that north korea would like to try to test another longrange ballistic missile. And you have afghanistan. This is such a critical time in afghanistan. Theyre putting together drawdown plans. And what the u. S. Does after 2014. The big decision there is how many troops to leave in right now. And then, how quickly to ramp down, going to 2014. How quickly. And general john allen who is under investigation because of the emails involved in the petraeus affair. Martha raddatz, thanks very much. We get the rest of the top headlines from josh. Good morning. Were going to begin with the big ruling affecting big tobacco. A federal judge in washington has ordered the major cigarette makers to take out ads in which they publicly admit they lied about the dangers of smoking. They must take out ads that say that smoking is responsible for 1,200 deaths per day. And details on a fire in a Clothing Company in bangladesh. Owned by a company that sup plies retail chains here in the united states. 112 people died in the blaze you see here. And we learned overnight, three factory officials have now been arrested, accused of locking the doors, trapping workers inside. The few who survived the blaze say they were told to ignore the fire alarms and get back to work. And dramatic video here from the civil war raging in syria. Rebels claim to have shot down the military helicopter you see here with a surfacetoair missile. Also, today, at least 34 people were killed in twin car bombings near the capital of damascus. And the florida socialite caught up in the cia sex scandal is fighting back, trying to reclaim her reputation. Attorneys for jill kelley are accusing a new york businessman of defaming kelley, suggesting she try to use her connections to general David Petraeus to broker a foreign business deal. Kelleys legal team claiming government sources are responsible for leaks to the media about kelleys personal life. And a frightening case of road rage in oakland, california. Take a look. A pair of men pulling up to a couple, recording their reckless driving. And as you can see here, one of the men waved a gun. The other tried to jump into the couples car, shooting at them. But then missing. The men were arrested a few hours later. If you thought traveling for thanksgiving was expensive, brace yourself for the coming Christmas Travel period. Usa today reporting that airfares to the most popular destinations next month will be roughly 8 higher than last year. And if you travel on the saturdays around the holiday, you can expect to pay about 25 more. Hotel rates are also up in some cities. Finally, on the list of things that can go wrong on live television, what youre about to see, not too bad. But we had to marvel at the composure of our colleague, meteorologist eduardo rodriguez. One of our partner there is at univision. Take a look at this, sammy. Theres eduardo, doing the weather. And that is not a muppet. Thats a cat that just walked right in. You can hear everybody in the studio, including his coanchors, laughing hysterically at the cat, who decided to get a little air time. For some unfortunate parts. Eduardo, as you can see, the picture of calm, as he talked about what looks like a real mild day. Its terrific. It was not going to leave. It was on. What do you think . I think hes a marvelously composed gentleman. Why are there cats in the studio . Thats a good question. Followupfree. George . Amy . Lets go back to amy. Now, were talking about the big concerns about the pork youre eating. A new study in Consumer Reports found pork chops and ground pork contaminated with bacteria that can make you sick. Much of that bacteria resistant to antibiotics. How worried should you be . Dr. Richard besser is here right now. This is a bacteria called yersinia. Which most of us have not heard of. What should we be concerned about . Consumer reports tested 198 pork samples from six states. They found that 70 of those had yersinia on them. Or were contaminated. Ground pork was at greater risk than the pork chops. This is the dangerous bacteria that can make you sick. But we should point out, the u. S. Department of agriculture says its not alarmed by the study. Saying companies are meeting the established guidelines for protecting the publics health. They say the Pork Producers Council calls this study junk science, designed to scare consumers into purchasing only organic pork. Is this a good study . What should consumers take away from it . Consumer reports doesnt give us enough information to fully evaluate their study. But there are some concerns here. They raise concerns about antibiotics being used in animals to promote growth. And they say doing that can raise the risk that have the animals can get resistant infections and pass them along to humans. This doesnt add a lot to that information. No question that yersinia does cause food poisoning. This is about properly handling and cooking your pork at the end of the day. Test ease its easy to prevent. Cook your pork well. Pork should be at 145 degrees. Ground pork to 160. Use separate cutting boards for raw meat and other foods. And wash your hands when handling raw meat. Very important, indeed. Dr. Richard besser, as always, thank you. George, over to you. Amy, thank you. Were going to turn, now, to a violent home invasion, that has sparked a federal investigation. Fbi and dea agents have joined the search for clues in an attack that put a prominent New Hampshire doctor and his wife in the hospital. And John Schriffen is in bedford, New Hampshire, with the latest. Good morning, john. Reporter george, good morning. As you can see behind me, the driveway to this home is blocked off, because this is still a very active crime scene. While police suggest they do have some leads, they say at this point, none are specific enough to be helpful. Crime scene units comb through this milliondollar mansion throughout the night, looking for any evidence of who could have brutally assaulted dr. Eduardo casada and his wife, before leaving them for dead. The homeowners were confronted by a person or persons of interest. Reporter this morning, agents from the fbi and dea have joined the investigation. As dr. Casada, a respected anesthesiologist, clings to life at the hospital where he normally works. Police say the couple was viciously attacked saturday night, after an apparent home invasion. His wife, sonia, was able to escape, covered in blood. She knocked on a neighbors door after the attack. Thats where police found her, shortly after someone called 911. It could have potentially been a hostage situation. That was a consideration that was part of the plan. But the overarching concern was for the safety of the homeowner and the child. Reporter when police stormed the house, they found the couples 2yearold child unharmed and no sign of intruders. Dr. Casada, however, was near death. The focus of this case was the couple. And maybe in particular, the doctor. And that they went there, with intention to, perhaps, steal something. But also to harm the doctor. Reporter last year, dr. Casada was reportedly arrested at the house, after a domestic disturbance call. The charges were later dropped. And police wont say if the two incidents are related. Meantime, this morning, this normally quiet town is reeling. At this point, police will not say if the family was targeted or if anything was stolen. Only that they have a person of interest. But no one under arrest. George . A lot of questions remain. John, thanks very much. Now, we have royal news, huh . We do. William and kate. We love to talk about them. Americas always watching, as is the world. The duchess making headlines with a brandnew look last night. And the couple currently on the brink of a lifechanging decision. The prince, just days away from choosing to extend his service as a soldier or becoming a fulltime royal. Abcs lama hasan has the story. Reporter this mornings full lineup of events may be a test of sorts. Is William Ready to give up highoctane adrenalinefueled flying life as a search and rescue pilot to start standing in more and more for his grandmother, the queen . Six events. Thats six here in cambridge. The two of them, drawing huge crowds wherever they go. Even kate, the glamorous half of this dynamic duo, is stepping out on her own. Solo last night. Debuting a glossy, new hair cut, with a dress reminiscent of diana. William and i are two of millions of people, who have passed through these doors. And marvelled at the spectacular wonders of the natural world. Reporter the prince has made no secret that he finds it difficult to juggle both jobs. But he and kate love their private life in wales, away from the paparazzis prying eyes. Especially as parenthood beckons. If he could stay in the military when they do have their first child, because that gives them the opportunity to have a little bit of family life, away from the spotlight of being fulltime royals. Reporter as they plan their future together and start a family of their own, which life will the prince choose . For good morning america, lama hasan, abc news, cambridge. Its a tough call. Well have to wait and see. Now, to sam and a check on the weather. We started this morning with the storms on the west. Well show you the storm that just left on the eastern coast. A lot of traffic accidents in that slippery mess, that little bit of accumulating snow in some cases. Were going to show you pictures i believe there you go, out of pennsylvania. Northeastern pennsylvania. Monroe county, if im right with that. And some of the fender benders and traffic accidents on the slippery surfaces there. Locally, six inches in new jersey. The peak snowfall total we were able to find. Three to four inches in the darker areas. New york city, just a trace. Philly, just a trace. Baltimore, nothing. D. C. , nothing out of that storm. Heres where we get today with some cooler, drier air. Were looking at 32 degrees in boston. About 34 in new york city. Philly, about 35 degrees. Pittsburgh, about 31. This is a little chillier than you normally would expect this time of year. But at least, its dry and it will get the snow out of the way you had to deal with. The storm lining up in the west, theres several of them. Plenty of cold air. It reminds us to remind you were in the middle of our coat drive right now. Swing by a Burlington Coat factory story and drop off a gently worn coat. All of americas weather in the next half hour. Josh . Amy . George . Thank you.

And talks about turning 50 and a word or two about the chanel ads. Angus t. Jones set up a firestorm when he called two and a half men filth and telling fans not to watch it. Hes apologizing to the costars and the producers. The big question, will he keep his job . Im on two and a half men. I dont want to be on it. Please, stop watching it. Reporter when angus t. Jones, one of the stars of two and a half men, recorded this religious rant, lambasting his popular sitcom. Please stop filling your head with filth. Reporter its hard to imagine he could have predicted the backlash. Brainwashed . Exploited . Reporter but this morning, after International Headlines and millions of views online, the young man who recently joined the Seventh Day Adventist church is now saying, im sorry. I apologize if my remarks reflect me showing indifference to and disrespect of my colleagues, jones says in a statement. I never intended that. But many in hollywood now wonder if this new apology is too little, too late. Theyll see us and be i can be a christian and be on a show like two and a half men. You cant. Reporter the man sitting next to jones in that youtube sensation, christopher hudson. A Seventh Day Adventist who runs a ministry called the forerunner cronicles. I never watched two and a half men. Reporter hudson has been described as jones spiritual actor. The show is not teaching truth. Its teaching lies. Reporter others accuse hudson of doing just that. Thats not faith at its best. Reporter warner brothers, which produces two and a half men isnt talking. But one of the former men is. You say i got dumped. Reporter Charlie Sheen played jones uncle until he was publicly fired in his own spat with producers last year. Now, the star of anger management, sheen is reportedly calling two and a half men cursed. Telling abc news overnight, my former nephew is welcomed at the goodson anger management home anytime. As for jones, hes not expected to be back on the set until next year. While jones joined a new church, his character, jake, went off and joined the army. Jake . Reporter good morning america, cecilia vega, abc news, los angeles. For more, were joined by actor, stephen baldwin. Hes been outspoken proponent about his faith in hollywood, since becoming a bornagain christian. You hear what angus jones said in the taped piece. And you see the backlash hes receiving from speaking out publicly, are you surprised about that reaction . Not really. Youre asking the wrong guy here. If you ask me, it sounds like angus is having an authentic experience with the gospel of jesus christ. Its a serious thing. A real, true walk of christianity is very difficult, quite radical. It seems to me, he was a young man when he started. And now, hes kind of coming into his own. And hes connected with his pastor. And now, hes kind of its not what you say. Its how you say it. He didnt mean to sound the way he did. But its admirable for sticking up for what he believes in. And we hear from angus mother, saying she is worried that the church may be exploiting him. And the pastor has said controversial things recently. When youre 19 years old, how do you know, especially because youre a public figure, youre not being exploited . I met angus recently. And got to spend a little time with him, in a political scenario. And i think he knows exactly what hes doing. Again, he meant to probably have it come out differently. He didnt want to offend chuck lorre or any of the people from the show or be disrespectful. But i think he means what he says when he finds, now, if you hold up the content of his show, to the bible, what he is saying is, now, theres a conflict for me. Does an actor have to quit a role if it conflicts with his beliefs . That depends on the actor. I have listen. Youve chosen not to im getting ready to direct two or three movies next year that are faithbased films. Im fullblown faithbased right now. Thats just where i am at in my walk of christianity. But let me tell you something. Isnt it weird, as a christian, i had a casting director come up to me two years ago and say, im really sorry because i brought your name up in castings for a while, now, and they look at me like im crazy. Is it possible to be successful in hollywood and be an outspoken christian . Sure doesnt seem like it, now does it . What advice do you have for angus . Listen. Hes in the last season of the show. I think hes being very respectful now. I think he ought to walk his walk and stand up for what he believes in. And finish out the season. And go about his business. We want to mention, stephen, that you work to promote Breast Cancer research. Named for your mother. A Breast Cancer survivor. We want to let everyone know, they can head to goodmorningamerica.

It looks like that heavy rain from San Francisco, up towards seattle. This will be the heaviest rain in the next 24 hours of the 3 systems. But each one of them will pack a punch with rain and wind. It will be sloppy and messy. And there will be travel delays on the roads or in the air in that direction. This morning in san antonio, 38 degrees this morning. Just brutal cold.

You said yesterday, i know i should be nervous. But im just so excited. Just to take it all in and enjoying the ride. Yeah. Do you think that has something to do with just being able to perform the way you did . I think so. I think feeling, we didnt have anything to prove, meant you could go out and not be nervous. And go, and leave it all on the dance floor. If you made yourself happy, leave it at that. And i think that gave us the ability to just kind of go out with confidence. Tony, youve been on since what . Season two . Season two. It took 12 seasons for me to get the mirrorball trophy. It was worth every bit of it. I have to say, it couldnt have come at a better date.

The other night, scared us half to death. Tell us about the story, about the break in the rules and what difference you think that made . For me, it was an allstar season. It was season 15.

And how the memories of everything. And meeting all these amazing people. You know, the pros. Just everything. Everything about the show, just is incredible. Just a positive thing. We even had the fierce five out there. We did. Getting to have my girls, be a part of the finale, kind of wrapped up this whole journey, meant the world to me. Everything theyve been through, going to london and the success theyve had. For them to come back and support me in this, that was pretty cool. And getting i dont know. It was too cool. Kelly, what a journey youve had. Going back to season one, when you said youre almost embarrassed to win. But now, its vindication, the allstar finals. I feel vindicated. Being in the finale with these two, amazingly talented women, was a success in itself. Val has taught me the fundamentals of dance. I feel like i could go out there anytime and shake a tail feather.

Honestly i really like my friends. By the way, these girls did well in all of the finals, too. And those guys, the gentlemen, those were some tough competitors. Think about the whole season. Everybody, from the first episode, was so strong out there on the floor. It was really something to see. Probably one of the best seasons we could have ever hoped for. It was allstars. It was called allstars. And the numbers were not disappointing, every aspect. She is loving herself. A budding star here. Do we have enough time, in the control room, to give val our present . All right. Really quickly, val, this is from all of the ladies at good morning america. [ cheers and applause ] we want to say thank you, val. Thank you, val.
