As she prepares to testify. Wild thing and the ultimate moment this cat gets loose. Grounds crew trying to get it under control. How it may have helped the cardinals win the game. Good morning, america. Tiny cat with a ferocious bite. Its great to have paula faris here this morning. Welcome. Thank you. I know no one has won the Powerball Lottery but i feel like i won the lottery sitting in between the two of you. You know how to butter us up. How about that. Big winner in st. Louis. Big winner in st. Louis. The cat, the rally cat, thats what everybody is talking about. It is one of the top trends on twitter this morning. Look at the little kitty. Got loose in the field and had to send the groundskeeper out there. He goes to grab the cat and the cat grabbed back. Going to leave a mark. That cat grabbed back. A lot more on that coming up. On this thursday morning. But first to new developments on north korea. We want you to take a live look at guam where it is nighttime right now. That is the u. S. Territory in the pacific, home to thousands of americans that north korea threatened to launch missiles toward last night, of course, their response to the president s fire and fury warning and also calling it a load of nonsense as defense secretary james mattis warns against any actions that lead to the destruction of north koreas people. Martha raddatz tracking all the latest and starts us off from washington. Good morning, martha. Reporter good morning, george. This is truly a war of words between donald trump and north koreas leader but it could have very real consequences. This morning, as you said, a u. S. Territory is facing a very specific threat from north korea in response to Donald Trumps strong words. A defiant rebuke by north korea. In a statement calling president trumps recent comments a load of nonsense, saying the president is a guy bereft of reason and only absolute force can work on him. [ speaking a Foreign Language ] reporter and this morning, a renewed specific threat to guam. North korea announcing it will launch four missiles at the waters near the island by midaugust. Overnight, the governor of guam responding encouraging calm. There is concern and worry but there is no panic. Reporter also overnight, south korea warning of strong and resolute retaliation for any attack against them or the u. S. The new north korean threat coming in response to that fiery warning by president trump. More threats to the united e any states. They will be met with fire and fury like the world has never seen. Reporter in a statement, defense secretary james mattis backing up the commanderinchief but stressing defense saying that the u. S. Has unquestionable commitment to defend ourselves from an attack. And that north korea should cease any consideration of actions that would lead to the end of its regime and the destruction of its people. And in pyongyang on wednesday, a rallying call. Thousands of north korean citizens packing the square in that Nations Capital in a display of unity. The increasingly threatening rhetoric coming as u. S. Intelligence analysts now believe scientists in north korea can produce miniature Nuclear Warheads that can fit inside those icbm missiles. Kim jongun launched two of them last month. But for now, all eyes focused on guam because the threat was so specific, saying four missiles giving an approximate date and saying the waters, not the island itself. This may increase the likelihood they may actually do this, george. Okay, martha, lets talk about it more with steve ganyard, our military analyst. Steve, as martha said its a specific provocation. Four or five missiles towards guam in the next couple of weeks and theres already been a warning against it from both south korea and japan. Yeah, george, the specificity is interesting. Not only does it particularly state the kind of missile, it says four and the parts of japan it will overfly and what the intent is so i think what were looking at is part of the continuing test program because this missile that theyre talking about has been very unreliable and never launched it in salvo, so could be a convenient choice to test it further. Its supposed to go over International Waters and the other areas but it could get close to u. S. Territory if it gets within the u. S. Territorial waters, what do we do . George, theres a thaad Missile System, a new defensive Missile System, that we talked about in south korea before. Its intended to defend areas. So, its a good missile to have there. The problem is, the thaad missile is still a developmental missile and although it has 100 success rate its never been tested against four and the north koreans know that. But as you know, the real concern here is guam is american territory and the north koreans miscalculate thats an act of war. So take us inside the decisionmaking process, inside the government as north korea prepares for this. Theyll obviously be watching every second of every day but how will they make the decision whether or not the test requires a response . The radars that will pick up the launch from north korea will hand off that data as the missile travels towards guam and this thaad Missile System is very sophisticated and itll operate almost on automatic mode and so it sees that missile coming in, the president , im sure, will authorize, if they do see one coming in, theyre authorized to knock it down so a lot will be automated and data that will be passed off through a series of radars out in the western pacific. Tensions are getting high, steve ganyard, thanks very much. Paula. Thank you, george. We want to turn to new developments in the russia investigation. We have now learned the fbi conducted a morning raid at the home of former Trump Campaign chairman Paul Manafort using a search warrant. Our senior White House Correspondent cecilia vega has the very latest details from bedminster, new jersey, for us. Good morning, cecilia. Reporter hi, paula. Good morning to you. This stems from special counsel Robert Muellers investigation into Russian Election interference. You said it, about a dozen armed agents showed up at his home and took documents and other materials. It happened early in the morning and late last month. This is now just coming to light. The trump team has really tried to distance themselves from Paul Manafort but Paul Manafort, of course, ran his campaign toward the end before the election there. He also oversaw the Republican National convention but really it is his past work in prorussian ukrainian politics that has him under scrutiny. Right now, ultimately he had to register as a foreign agent. In the wake of this raid, his spokesman released this, mr. Manafort has consistently cooperated with Law Enforcement and other serious inquiries and did so on this as well. But, paula, really the big question, if Paul Manafort was cooperating to the level that the feds want him to be cooperating would they have had to conduct this raid on his home . Thats what everybody wants to know. I want to go back to the spokesman statement right there, cecilia. You mentioned, quote, other serious inquiries referencing congressional investigators. What else are they looking for from manafort . Reporter they are looking for information from Paul Manafort but also donald trump jr. , the president s son. And, of course, this goes back to that famous nowinfamous thump tower meeting between theyre also looking for information about the russian interference in general and the campaign, the Trump Campaign has released 20,000 documents to the Senate Judiciary committee recently. Paula. Cecilia, we will see you on world news tonight. Thanks for your reporting. Lets send things over to george. We get more on both of these from matthew dowd, chief legal analyst dan abrams. Matthew, let me turn to you and north korea. We see the action reaction cycle going on right now. The president s fire and fury comments spark a new reaction from north korea, even though the president s team trying to modulate his rhetoric. Well, its very interesting that the president s team is basically saying dont Pay Attention to the president , so the calm and cooler heads arent the president. The calm and cooler heads are people like general mattis, general kelly, general mcmaster, nikki haley. Almost as if theyre the offensive line protecting the American People of the world from something that they see as a threat. I think, as einstein said, you cannot solve a problem with the same thinking that created a problem. They need to step back and figure out what is it over the last 25 years they havent been able to do in order to build this in the korean peninsula. There are no good answers to that nuclear threat. I want to move on now to the russia investigation and lets talk about this raid on Paul Manaforts home. Quite significant in that a judge had to approve it. Thats right. It also means that its clear that the authorities do not believe that hes cooperating as he says that he is. Now, he may be offering up documents and he may be cooperating to some degree but they clearly dont believe hes cooperating enough because they went to a judge to say, we need to go to his house, we need to go in and potentially find documents. Knock on his bedroom door. Thats right. So the judge had to sign off on having probable cause of a crime where they could find evidence there. So thats a big deal. Now, does that mean that a crime was committed . No. Does that necessarily mean theyre going to be able to link it to donald trump . No. But it is significant with regard to the investigation into manafort and what theyre saying publicly about his cooperation and what the authorities think about that. Politico also reporting this morning the investigators are look at Paul Manaforts soninlaw who he is in business with as well. It does seem like theres something of a strategy here both with Paul Manafort and general flynn, put the pressure on, see if theyll flip. Maybe, yeah, but see if theyve committed crimes. I mean, everyone is sort of viewing manafort and flynn as potentially part of this ladder to go up higher, but i think that the authorities there are also looking into whether they committed crimes. I think thats important here. I think thats part of the investigation. Its not all just pieces in the puzzle to get to a higher level. Matt, meantime, the president back on twitter continuing his feud now with the Senate Republican leader mitch mcconnell. You would think for a guy whos basically down to almost 30 Approval Rating in the country hed be looking for friends wherever he can find them. Mitch mcconnell is the leader of the party, his party, in the United States senate and the only signature achievement that the president has had in the congress was neil gorsuch getting on the Supreme Court and that was because of mitch mcconnell. You would think the president would take some accountability since hes the head of his party for whatever happens on his legislation but hes trying to blame everybody else for some reason. Thanks very much. Lets go back over to michael. All right, thank you, george. Also this morning, Hurricane Franklin making landfall slamming mexicos gulf coast. It is the atlantics first hurricane of the season and abcs rob marciano has more. Gorngs good morning, rob. Good morning, michael. Its the second landfall for franklin for the state of mexico and the state of veracruz. It came on shore as an 85mileanhour storm late last night now weakening rapidly. Still some back building on the east side. Mexico city is in the path but they are protected by some of these mountains. Not going to be a wind event but rain on the eastern slopes. Heavy rain, maybe mudslides there. Greater concern closer to home. Two tropical waves were watching. This one has models bending out to sea but the other one off the coast of florida and watch it and noaa updated its seasonal list. Thanks. Now to new trouble for google. The engineer fired over his memo questioning the role women play in the world of tech, is now filing a labor complaint as a lawyer says dozens of women are gearing up to sue the company alleging wage discrimination. Abcs Rebecca Jarvis has more. Reporter this morning, the man behind the memo that sparked outrage doubling down on those controversial claims about gender diversity at google speaking out in an interview on youtube. Im not saying that any of the female engineers at google are in any way worse than the average male engineer. Im just saying that this may explain some of the disparity in representation. Reporter the nowfired Google Engineer james damore addressing this tenpage memo he says he wrote after attending a Diversity Program claiming, women on average have for neuroticism and higher anxiety and lower stress tolerance than men. Concluding that may explain why we dont see equal representation of women in tech and leadership. Some women are different than men in these ways. Reporter now, the unemployed 28yearold says hes considering suing his former employer for illegal dismissal and filing an official complaint with the National Labor relations board. The ceo of youtube, owned by googles parent company, sharing how hard it was to explain the memo to her daughter. I thought about how tragic it was that this unfounded bias was being exposed to a new generation. Googles technical staff and now more than 70 current and former female employees are preparing to fight back over alleged gender pay disparity. Google has no comment on the possible lawsuit. They are already dealing with a government investigation into alleged pay discrimination. Google denying any pay gap and as for damore, wikileaks founder Julian Assange has now offered him a job, paula. Have not heard the last from him. Okay, rebecca, thanks very much. Were going to get the latest now on the taylor swift trial. Her mother took the stand yesterday, leveled a direct accusation at the radio deejay who lost his job after swift accused him of groping her. Reporter fans are still lining up to see taylor swift. Front of the line. I dont know if i have enough for everybody. Reporter her mothers testimony is now making headlines. On the stand wednesday, andrea swift looked straight at david mueller, the former radio deejay accused of groping her daughters rear end saying he sexually assaulted her. That guy. Andrea swift says looking at this photo obtained by tmz of swift and mueller during a 2013 preshow meet and greet, her daughters stance and expression looked awkward. Here both sides say its a good picture. Of course, he says it shows that im not lifting her skirt, for example, but she says why would your hand be anywhere near my bottom. Reporter mueller insists there was never inappropriate contact. His lawyer asking, do you know where your hand was not . Mueller saying it was not on miss taylor swifts rear end. He is suing swift claiming her allegation is false and that it cost him his career in radio. Andrea swift says she wanted mueller fired but never demanded it. For taylor swifts mother to get on the stand, and i think in a way that seemed sincere, cry and seem very hurt for her daughter, thats the sort of thing that wakes jurors up and in a close case emotion matters. Reporter now, as for why team swift never went to police, andrea swift says she wanted to keep it private so that it didnt define her daughters life. Now we do still expect taylor swift to take the stand sometime before this trial is over. Michael. All right, thank you, im sure everybody is waiting to see what she has to say about that. Were going turn to good news for everyone whos playing the lottery. There was no powerball winner overnight which means both that jackpot and the Mega Millions pot still in it, michael. Im still in it. I still got a chance, george. Abcs nick watt has details from l. A. Good morning, nick. Reporter good morning, michael. The combined jackpot now approaching 750 million bucks which has fools and dreamers like me thinking, what if i won them both . Anything is possible but the odds on that happening, 75 quadrillion to 1. Thats 15 zeros, so pretty slim but the luckiest state is california. 27 winners since 2010, including the last powerball and the last Mega Millions. Unluckiest states im afraid were talking maine, new mexico, north dakota, oklahoma, wyoming, vermont, but maybe theyre due a bit of luck. It is possible to overthink this. All you can say is if you buy a ticket you got almost a zero chance. But if you dont buy it, zero chance, no chance. Buy a ticket, maybe. Just maybe, just maybe. 15 quadrillion. 15 zeros. So youre saying there is a chance. Theres always a chance. Nick talked me into it. I will be buying my tickets. Good advice from nick. Rob, fires burning in the northwest.

One of us will come get him if the drone doesnt. Also right now, the war of words between the u. S. And north korea is escalating. North korea says a plan to launch missiles to guam could come within days. The Trump Administration is doubling down. Following the president s warning to the regime. And we want crow to take a look at the rally cat we have been talking about and everybody is talking about it. It ran onto the field in st. Louis during the cardinals game bringing the game to a stop with the bases loaded. A member of the grounds crew ran out to grab it but rally cat wasnt going down without a fight. He bit the member of the grounds crew. So they named it rally cat because this happened. Bases loaded the next pitch. Molina hit a grand slam and the cardinals went on the cardinals went on to win that game, 85 so now rally cat has to stay at Busch Stadium whenever the cardinals are playing. Theyll run that cat out. Molina ought to adopt him. Good point. Now to a stunning story, stunning double guilty verdict for the former fbi agent and his daughter on trial for murdering her husband. Abcs linzie janis spoke with one of the jurors and shes on the scene in lexington, North Carolina. Good morning, linzie. Reporter good morning, george. It was high drama and emotion in that courtroom as those verdicts were read out. The father and daughter immediately taken into custody. This morning, former au pair Molly Martens corbett and her father tom martens heading to prison. A jury finding both guilty of Second Degree murder in the death of her husband jason corbett. The father and daughter each sentenced to the maximum, 20 to 25 years. The jury taking less than a day for deliberations. Some crying as the guilty verdict was delivered. Molly herself sobbing and telling her mother, im really sorry, mom, i should have just let him kill me. We believe justice has been done. Reporter jason hired molly as his au pair in 2008 after the death of his first wife. In 2011, jason and molly married and moved the family, including his two young children, to the u. S. But two years ago, tom martens making this 911 call from jason and mollys North Carolina home. Hes bleeding all over and i may have killed him. Reporter martens and his daughter have always maintained they acted in selfdefense. I hit him in the head with a baseball bat. He was choking my daughter. He said im going to kill her. Reporter the retired 31year veteran of the fbi even taking the stand as the defense claimed investigators missed key evidence they say showed a fight for survival. But prosecutors pointed to the crime scene, seen in these photos obtained by abc news. Investigators testifying that the physical evidence, specifically the blood spatter, proved corbett suffered fatal blows to the head after he was already down. The weapons, a baseball bat and a brick. Jasons family who are now raising his children speaking out after the verdict. A brick that had been on her nightstand. When we sift through the evidence, when we found those details it was so unbelievable. Who keeps a brick on their nightstand. Reporter the jury not buying the selfdefense claim. Once you hit a certain point and you do not stop, selfdefense goes off the table. Reporter family members of molly and tom shocked and devastated. This is the most atrocious mischaracter of justice ive ever been a part of, thank you. Reporter the defense says it plans to appeal the verdict. Before she left the courtroom molly said she and her father were not murderers. She referred to her husband choking her and said it happened many times before. The only difference is that that night her father happened to be in the house. George. Okay, linzie, thanks. Dan abrams back with us now. The jury moved pretty quickly. Were you surprised . Yeah, i think most were surprised watching this case particularly about her conviction. Hes the one who is swinging the bat. He admits he swung the bat and yet, theyre both convicted of Second Degree murder. Now, apparently, the jurors in the end believed that she had hit him with a brick as well and i think there were a lot of questions as to what a brick was doing in her room at all to start, if this was selfdefense, how did you suddenly have a brick there. She said it was for an art project, et cetera. I think that was one of the issues for this jury, but i think that most people were surprised at this verdict. Yeah, and you point out especially for her because the jury foreman said that at least initially two people thought she was not guilty. Thats right, so those two people said they took the night and came back but this was a really quick deliberation. Youre talking about, what, four hours or something of deliberations and they come back in a case where even just the Legal Standard was tough. Meaning, the prosecutors had to effectively prove it wasnt selfdefense and it was the blood spatter and it was exactly what that jury said there, i think it was the number of blows and the fact that there was an opportunity that jurors believed for him to stop. Annd beyond their testimony the evidence in support of selfdefense relatively thin. Right, it was his testimony and there was a hair. There was a hair that was seen on a photograph that the defense said wasnt tested and could have helped prove that he had been dragging molly. That was the defense that he had been dragging her and the reason he needed to keep hitting him was because he couldnt he wouldnt stop. He hit him and hed keep dragging molly. And hed hit him again and hed keep dragging her, et cetera, and explain the reason why blood was around the room. That became one of the Critical Issues. But this is one of those cases where the blood spatter evidence did become critical. Evidence that was found, for example, on his underwear. Evidence that was found around the room. Those were the Critical Issues in the case. Dan abrams, thanks very much. Well have more on this story tomorrow on gma and 20 20 including the exclusive interview with molly and her father tom. Their only interview after the arrest. Paula. Thank you. Coming up, take a look at gio benitez on a rock in the middle of a creek. Hes up a creek.

Gio, youre up a creek this morning. Best of luck to you. Good morning. Reporter thats right, paula, good morning to you.

[ sirens ] reporter this is a training exercise. Lets go. Reporter simulating an active shooter scenario. Volunteers playing frightened school kids and teachers.

They got him. The entire time that drone was watching what he was doing. Thats how they knew where to go. Reporter the man behind the sticks officer barrymore of the Mansfield Police department in north texas. Before the drone goes through those doors, what is going through your mind . Keep the officers safe. Make sure i can get eyes on the bad guy, the suspect, and make sure that theyre not walking into something that will get them killed. Reporter hes part of the Drone Task Force that spotted this escaped convict back in 2015 hours before a search helicopter could arrive. That unit, one of the more than 300 state and local agencies that have added drones to their arsenals. These aircraft deployable in just minutes, more agile and up to 400 times cheaper than using a helicopter for those eyes in the sky. Theyre also being used by firefighters outfitted with thermal imaging cameras. With better information comes better decisions. Its the next best thing since a fire hose. Reporter to show what it can do, im led into a Fire Training facility completely filled with smoke. Lets go. Reporter thats me on the right. With members of the joshua fire department, i crouch down in the corner playing a trapped victim.

And in january, those thermal cameras finding these stranded kayakers at night in just 20 minutes and as night falls here i head into the woods so a drone can find me. The drone delivering a kind of lifeline. A radio with a glow stick attached for easy spotting. I have the walkietalkie. Im not hurt. We will send a search team for you right now. Reporter then, something i never expected. They have a spotlight on a drone. This is the kind of spotlight you might expect from a helicopter. Wave to the camera and say hi. You found us i cant believe it. And right here right now in the Brandywine Creek were going to show you how a drone can help save a life. Take a look now. We are with drone pilots from the wilmington Police Department and they are flying a life jacket out to me right now. In fact, just ten days ago they had a rescue right here. The water was over the rocks and you can see right there all that debris, thats actually from a real flash flood. You can hear that powerful drone above me right now and were going to take this life jacket off. Here we go. Ive got the life jacket and now what this will do is give rescuers more time to actually get to me and save my life. You know, whats really incredible about this, more than 50 people have been saved with the help of a drone since 2013. Paula. More than 50. Thats a stat that we like to hear. Things ended well for gio. Were happy to report that, but thats a pretty incredible endorsement from that fire chief its the next best thing to a fire hose. Yeah. I mean thats the way you use a drone. I thought gio was going to hook himself up to the drone and take himself out of there. We have our big board. Hotel alert.

Holmes is here with the details on these resort fees. So whats going on here . You look at your bill and you think youre paying 150 bucks and next thing youre paying 200. You see the 150 a night and theres another 30 a night resort fee so end up 180 a night. What in the world is going on . The resort fee is essentially a fee to have access to things at the hotel. So they have a gym at the hotel. You dont plan on using it, thats in your resort fee, theres a pool, you didnt even bring your trunks, thats in your resort fee. Internet access, you dont even have your ipad with you. Thats in your resort fee. Local phone calls. You dont even know anybody in town youre so bitter about the resort fee. Well, look, but its an extra fee that you dont plan on but it really does hike the price of your those are all things that i expect when i pull up and pay for internet half the time anyway. How common are these fees and what does the industry say . Theyve been around a while but now were starting to see more and more. By one industry estimate, some thousandplus hotels are charging the fee in new york, San Francisco, l. A. , up 70 in the last six months. The average is about 20 to 25 a day. But it can go up to 125 a day and the hotels display a breakdown of these fees. Its up to you to make sure of what youre getting essentially saying, hey, we tell you theyre there, its on you to identify. Check your bill, maybe ask before you actually book it, is there a resort fee . And always bring your trunks and your bathing suit, that is the lesson here. Thanks, t. J. Coming up, a health alert.

Kim jonguns regime is now threatening to launch missiles near the u. S. Territory of guam. It could come within days. Our chief global afires anchor Martha Raddatz tracking all the latest. Good morning, martha. Reporter good morning. We saw that north korean news reader this morning calling president trumps recent firing comments a load of nonsense saying the president is a guy bereft of reason and only absolute force can work on him. But the most alarming part of the statement is an extraordinarily specific threat to guam. Kim jonguns regime saying they plan to launch four missiles at the waters near the island. Finalizing a plan by midaugust. The response has been resolute. Overnight japans defense minister claimed they could shoot down any missiles north korea might launch before they reach guam while the governor of guam encouraged calm. South korea warned of retaliation for any attack against them or their allies. And defense secretary mattis warned that north korea should cease any consideration of actions that will lead to the end of the regime and the destruction of its people, george. A very tense august. Okay, martha, thanks very much. Paula. Now the other top story, a bizarre dispute between the u. S. And cuba. The state department has expelled two cuban dims after u. S. Embassy employees in havana reported coming down with mysterious physical ailments. Now being blamed on a socalled sonic weapon. Abcs Victor Oquendo has all the details. Good morning. Reporter good morning. The state department is taking this very seriously. The fbi is investigating as well. Two cuban diplomats working at the embassy in washington, d. C. , theyve been expelled after all of this but the circumstances are still mysterious. It was late 2016 when a number of americans working at the u. S. Embassy in havana suffered some physical ailments. Thats all wouldhe confirm but the ap repos u. S. Officials with knowledge of the situation believe there were some bizarre attacks on these diplomats with a kind of covert sonic weapon that left them with severe hearing loss and caused many of them to return home for treatment. The Cuban Foreign ministry responded in a statement that read in part, the ministry categorically emphasizes that cuba has never, nor would it ever allow the cuban territory to be used for any action against accredited diplomatic agents or their families without exception. Paula. Bizarre story, indeed, victor, thank you. Michael, you have another top story, a story of biblical pr portions. Archaeologists along the sea of galley think it is the birthplace of three apostles of jesus christ and at first they thought it was a fishing village but say the elaborate architecture and mosaics indicate this may have been a more important place possibly the birthplace of st. Peter and the apostles andrew and phillip and say this is one of the few biblical sites that has remained lost if you can believe that. More digging is scheduled for next year. Fascinating.

The actor took time to pose with fan, hang out with the cast including andy karl and murray was really into it. He was visibly sobbing by the end of night one. I mean, its like your life flashes before your eyes again in he didnt want to see it end so he kept going back again. You know, will murray make it a true groundhog day and show up again tonight . How many days did they go in the original i dont remember. I just remember that song, i got you babe. Are you going to be singing no, you set the bar high. Maybe hold on to your hat. Now to a pop news exclusive. John green releasing his first novel in almost six years. A look at turtles all the way down. You know what turtles all the way down means . Its a philosophical joke that says the world is flat and were all on a giant turtle. So it doesnt have . Im for real about this. Were not talking about the teenage mutant Ninja Turtles underground . No. Thats where i was going with it. Something about a woman and a billionaire and searching for god. I dont know. But anyways, it follows his breakout hit the fall in our stars. 16yearold aza and daisy as they pursue the mystery of that billionaire and along with a cash reward.

Right up in your face. Come on. Well, when youre right there anyway, what a day. I think im just a little buzzier because ive been on the road but anyway, springsteen on broadway will begin previews october 3rd and thats when broadway turned into [ applause ] and everybody will be dancing in the dark. Born in the usa waiting for that. If thats what being on the road does for you im going on the road. Matter, im going on the road right now. Thank you so much, adrienne. Im going on the road to our gma health alert. Its a new study that found that strokes are on the decline for men but not for women and dr. Ashton, youre here to help us. Good morning. Good morning to you. And even with the rates on decline for men of strokes thats going down for men, but it really overall hasnt really changed. What does this tell us. This was a huge study that appeared in the journal neurology and looked at over a million people, 1. 3 million over a 15year period and look at the rates taking the pulse of whats going on, what are the numbers and found for men good news the rates of stroke are going down. For women, they stayed the same. So, again, we have to always track these major diseases and Health Outcomes because thats obviously very clinically relevant. The natural question why is it going down for men and women staying the same. Its important to realize as a society were not getting healthier, unfortunately. Although we are living slightly longer. So for both men and women, the things that increase the rates of stroke, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, obesity, we see that again and again going up for everyone. For women they dont really understand what is really causing this change in stroke rates so, again, there are some possible theories here. Causes for women, Heart Disease which we know the number one killer of men and women, the same thing predisposes you for a risk of stroke. Less aggressive treatment possibly in women or women who may be more less compliant with their medications like blood pressure, lowering medications and then hormone therapy. We know there is a slight association between increased risk of stroke or clotting events in women who take hormones so, again, a lot of question, not a lot of conclusive answers at this point. What exactly could women do to cut their risk. I mean you have to ask first of all what causes a stroke and, remember, theres two different kind, a bleeding kind of stroke but the most common cause, ischemic where the blood supply gets cut off. When you talk about lowering that risk the same thing good for the heart is the brain, know your number, blood pressure, cholesterol, exercise. If you smoke, stop and know your Family History so, again, prevention is very important. The good news is 80 of strokes are preventable thats great news and thank you. Like to end on a good note. Thank you for giving us that information and, george, well go over to you. We move on to Financial Advice and a new survey about credit card fees that examines 100 different cards and reveal those with the fewest fees and others with the biggest charges.

Good morning it is misty to drizzly out there once again. That will hang around through 9 00, maybe 10 00 for the bay and inland neighborhoods, even up to noon in San Francisco. Temperatures once again below average this afternoon. All right. Afternoon. A big shoutout to grandma grandma joy. Happy birthday grandma joy. Weather cast sponsored by tmobile. Michael, back up to you. Thank you, rob. And i got to say, hear the crowd. Theyre excited. It is great to have Robert Pattinson here, everybody. He stars in a new movie good time. He plays a con man looking out for his brother. Lets take a look. How would you like it if i made you cry . Would you like that . No, i would not. Get up. Told me i had to do it. Lets go. He has all my stuff. This is my work. This is my stuff. Okay. Shame on you. Shame on me . Shame on you. Shame on you. Yeah. Welcome. Welcome, man. Thank you. Im going to talk about your queens accent in a moment but when you i had a chance to watch the movie. You burst into the room. You look so different in this movie. I had a bath since then. Well, kind of. What was the transformation like for you physically for this movie . I mean, well, were shooting a lot of it just on the treat and shots and stuff and i kind of also with a lot of first time actors and i didnt want to seem like im an actor playing a part really so i had a lot of time to kind of just basically convince people that i kind of was that and kind of one of the first times i stayed in character for a significant period of time. But its very satisfying just wandering around shooting a movie and no one noticed because like no one in it looks recognizable at all. I tell you what, watching the movie you definitely were that character. You embodied that character the entire way through and had this accent. Youre speaking with an english accent now which im used to but the queens accent. You mastered it. How did you master it . I mean ive always kind of liked doing accents. Its kind of its a holdover. My mom is one of those people talking to someone on the phone with an accent and by the end of the conversation no matter how strong their accent is shes fully imitating that. And i guess its a kind of holdover. I find it really fun. But i mean i spent a lot of time in queens and Queens Center mall. I was in the tattoo shop there for ages and ages. You know how many people are going, i wish i would have went into that tattoo shop. I kept walking in on people getting i wanted to talk to the tattoo or to the piercing guy and i would keep interrupting him in the middle of a tongue piercing, so just say this line. And theyre like you know but i heard this movie was essentially written for you so what drew you to this movie . I mean, i really liked the safdie brothers, one of whom was in the clip. I really like their previous movie and i just felt very while and out of control and it kind of felt like it was almost a documentary and i just wanted to do Something Like that i wanted to make a thriller which felt like it was on the cusp of the cops just busting in at any moment and hopefully it does feel wild. It did. It made me stay up later, past my bedtime worried about you last night. This is quite a different experience. No one recognized you as you were filming this movie. Quite a different experience from twilight days. You had to do crazy stuff, hire multiple ubers and hiding in trunks to get away from people. Yeah, that was i used to do that with my assistant all the time. But the most embarrassing thing, you kind of you get to a point where you have no idea if anyone is even following you or not. Its like everybody get in the trunk. I dont know if somebody is following or not. Get in the trunk. Did the uber driver freak out when you got in the trunk. I didnt get in the trunk of a uber. That would be kind of incredible though. Thats definitely im going to do that just for fun. Another project you did. I want to ask you about. You did something for gq. In search of a hot dog. Yeah. Tell us about that. That was i mean i guess for every single magazine cover now you have to do these little videos or whatever and the we were initially going to do it just normal questions on a roller coaster and didnt have time to go to adventureland which was in the movie and so i basically wrote this thing and like ten minutes like and in the back of an uber. But, yeah, and so, yeah, we wrote this thing and its kind of just a thing about being crazy, i guess. In pursuit of a hot dog. You and uber, man, seem to always come back together again. I appreciate you being here, man. It was great to watch you in the film. Thank you. In the film. It is good time. It hits select theaters tomorrow. Make sure you check out, robert, everybody.
