A rare filibuster came to an end in the senate overnight while president obama held an even rarer dinner with republican lawmakers. Chuck todd joins us now. Good morning. Good morning, savannah. What a wednesday night in washington. First that rare sight you were talking about, an actual filibuster thats filled with actual talking. Mr. Smith goes to washingtontype drama played out for 12 hours led by republican rand paul who decided to filibuster the confirmation of cia director to be john brennan in an attempt to get the white house to promise never target americans with drones on u. S. Soil. It started as a onesenator crusade just before lunch. I will speak until i can no longer speak. Reporter republican rand paul wants assurances from the president and eric holder that drones will not be used to target americans on u. S. Soil. The president should just very frankly answer the question, i will not kill noncombatants. Reporter a few fellow Tea Party Republicans joined in. I believe the inquiry senator paul raised is a legitimate one. Reporter by midafternoon, a democratic. Senator majority leader harry reid tried to put a stop just before dinner. We need to know if were going to finish tonight or tomorrow or the next day. Reporter as the hour got late, things got punchy. That takes me back to another modern day poet by the name of jayz. We few, we happy few, we band of brothers. Reporter but paul, who filibustered for nearly 13 hours finally had to end when natured called. But i thank you very much for the forberns and i yield the floor. Reporter the democratic president breaking bread with republican senators. The dinner supposed to be quiet, sad it makes news. But in the normal in washington, a dinner like this makes news. It came from Lindsey Graham during a phone conversation last weekend. Those invited to the dinner focused to stop the budget standoff were invited by graham and not the president. His closest senate friends were on the list but also invited senators who have a particular interest in the budget debate, including tea party favorites. A very open honest sincere general discussion. If theres one issue democrats and republicans agree in congress, it this is fact they dont think president obama reaches out enough, but its clearly a big change in strategy, and you see it today, his lunch partner today at the white house, paul ryan. Matt . Meanwhile, there is new opposition this morning to the tsas decision to allow passengers to carry small knives on to planes. Representatives for the federal air marshals and Flight Attendants say they want that policy change to be reconsidered. Sarah nelson is the president of the association of Flight Attendants and also a Flight Attendant for united airlines. Good to have you here. Thank you so much. Were you shocked by the policy change . Did it come as a complete surprise to you . A complete surprise. We were not briefed or advised and its outrageous. And im hearing from Flight Attendants throughout the country, this has to be changed. We have props on the table and you can see some of the knives down on the table here that would now be allowed to be carried on to a flight. Youre a Flight Attendant standing in the center aisle going over safety procedures. How are you going to feel they are not big, but they can be used as weapons. How will you feel knowing some passengers may have those in their pockets. Look, they are a Deadly Weapon and its unnecessary. It is unnecessary to put them on our aircraft. After september 11th, the policy changed and changed for a reason. We didnt know the threat whats the scenario you worry about the most . Youre standing on the plane. Whats the scenario. It comes in a lot of different fashions. We talk about what happened on september 11th. We have unruly passengers. Fuller planes than ever and dont have air marshals on every flight. We have people who can act out. If you put a weapon in their hand the situation we can contain today with the help of the passengers we can direct are now in a much more dangerous position. Its just unnecessary. We invited the tsa to appear but they declined saying this allows transportation Security Officers to better focus their efforts on finding higher threat items such as explosives. In other words, focus on objects that can bring an airliner down. Does that make any sense at all . It doesnt make any sense to me because im a Flight Attendant who works in the cabin and my job is to act as First Responder and the last line of defense. We carry that with us every single day to work, and the millions of pmgs that fly on our airplanes expect this is a Safe Aviation system and expect to be protected. Its not just about protecting the cockpit and making sure that airplane doesnt come down, its about protecting all the people in that cabin. Are you surprised the Pilots Association has come out in support of this policy change . Thats incredibly unfortunate because the Flight Attendants are in back as the last line of defense defending that aircraft. We need the support to make sure our cabin and workspace and travel space for millions of passengers is safe as well. This matters to americans across the country whether you travel or not, because you have loved ones who travel. And there are more of us than those who made this silly decision to change this policy. We have to take action together. The policy takes effect on april 25th. Sara nelson, thank you. Lets head over to natalie for the other stories making headlines this morning. Good morning, everyone.

As we looked out west, we got a big storm thats going to be pushing in and that storm is going to be bringing a lot of rain from it. From San Francisco to los angeles, we expect to see anywhere from about a half an inch to an ench of rain, so thats going to cause some problems. Then as we make our way as far as the winter part of the system, the wasatch, sierra could be looking up to a foot to two feet of snow. And were even looking at a pretty good snowstorm in flagstaff, arizona. They could pick up 6 to 9 inches of snow in the next 48 hours.

Medford looking at clouds and a temperature of about 30. Well get to your local forecast right after this message. But there are some things ive never seen before. This ge jet engine can understand 5,000 data samples per second. Which is good for business. Because planes use less fuel, spend less time on the ground and more time in the air. Suddenly, faraway places dont seem so. Far away. Good morning to you. Tracking showers on the radar. You can see activity is light and mostly offshore. Its on its way. I want to time that out for you. We stop the clock at 9 00 a. M. Most of the peninsula getting wet at that point. That recognize rprogresses inla. Keep the umbrella handy. Back to the vatican, where as we said, we could be getting closer to setting a date to begin the conclave, but this morning secrecy has become a top priority. Kyra simmons is there. Good morning. They didnt do that, but take a look at this, matt, the front page of the newspaper reporting about the u. S. Cardinals saying the u. S. Cardinals have been blocked from independently briefing the media and saying the tension between the cardinals is escalating. The u. S. Cardinals have been told to stop talking, to close ranks. Since monday, theyve been holding news conferences. No one really wants to rush this if it cant be rushed. Reporter the last abruptly cancelled before it began. Vatican imposing immediate break down despite hopes the churn will modernize. I think it will backfire because it shows fear of the truth and fear of the outside world. Reporter it is italian newspapers where many leaks seem to appear. Even today the stamper has more details. The american cardinals are doing pennants for the sins of others. Its the italians who leaked things to italian papers. Reporter amid the tension cardinals spent wednesday night in prayer but no clue yet who might be chosen or even when. Ordinary catholics from the u. S. Among wednesdays congregation. I want to show my support of solidarity for the cardinals, because they have a very heavy responsibility on their shoulders, electing a new pope. Reporter in the sistine chapel, work is under way to prepare the vote, the conclave. And here it the paper is burned after each indecisive vote. And all this will be done in secret. First, they must set a date for the conclave to start, and so far even this simple diary date is still shrouded in mystery. So, savannah, we understand now that the cardinals will meet this afternoon and that they may well then make a decision. If they do, then that will be announced to the media, even though there isnt another official briefing. Nbc news has learned that the final cardinal who can vote in the conclave is now here in rome. The cardinal from vietnam. He arrived here in the last few hours. We understand no official confirmation of that, and that means that they are ready and prepared to hold the conclave to be able to hold their votes. And that means, clearly, that they are able to announce a start date for the conclave as soon as possible. Very quickly, we saw that picture of Pope Benedict, tell me how that shot was taken. Thats right. Pope benedict, former Pope Benedict xvi, picture of him taken at Castel Gandalfo in the gardens. He, too, will be watching what happens here in rome amongst the cardinals. All right, at the vatican for us this morning. Thank you.

Reporter thank you. Family members confirm the victim as 24yearold Dianna Hanson and just started intern in january with the animalings she loved best. Today, cat haven gates are closed. The fresno animal park is a crime scene after wednesdays deadly mauling of a volunteer. At approximately 8 00 p. M. , a female volunteer intern entered the lion enclosure where she was attacked. When my deputies arrived on scene, the victim was still in the enclosure. Reporter family members say the victim is 24yearold diana hansen. They say shes always loved big cats and that the internship was a dream come true. Attempts to distract the lion away and into another enclosure didnt work, so deputies shot the animal, but by then it was too late. The worker was found to be deceased. Reporter park officials identicaled the lion as 4yearold couscous. He was even on the Ellen Degeneres show. According to the associated press, since 1990, at least 21 people have been killed by exotic cats. 246 people have been mauled. While the California Department of fish and wildlife says cat haven has a clean Safety Record, wildlife experts were quick to point out the risk these animals pose. They are lions, wild animals.

So far, the infections have been contained to hospitals and nursing homes, infecting the severely ill. The fear and challenge is to keep these bacteria from reaching the general population. Its resistant to nearly all antibiotics. The normal issue of giving someone an antibiotic and curing them becomes very difficult. Thats a real concern because the pharmaceutical industry is focusing on diseases like obesity and alzheimers and there really arent any antibiotics in the pipeline. Last year, at the National Institutes of health, it affected 18 people and six died and the alarm was sounded. The hospital in new york is accepting all patients and separating them. And they find they unknowingly infect patients into their institution. Since they could make common ailments like derhea and new mexi mexico dee iarrhea and pneuma untreatable, we do have to contain it. Nancy snyderman, new york.

The rossen report, investigation into popular used cars that can save families money and sales are up this year. We found some of those cars may have dangerous safety flaws and folks may not know that. Investigator jeff rossen is here. Good morning. 40 million used cars sold in the u. S. Last year alone. This affects a lot of people. When you buy a car from a dealer, you ask a lot of questions. Is it safe . Is it reliable, especially with used cars. When the dealer says, yeah, all good, you trust them. This morning, were going under cover with cars for sale with unfixed safety recalls. And some sellers not telling the whole story. Were in the heartland of america, st. Louis, missouri, shopping for a used car in good condition. Im looking for a safe reliable car. Reporter but our investigation found dozens of dealers selling popular models with potentially dangerous secrets. Open safety recalls ordered to be fixed by the manufacturers. Reporter youre telling consumers this car is safe but theres an open safety recall. Dont you think you should tell that . Yes. It only took us a few minutes to find the safety defect. Why arent you telling consumers that. Reporter last year, millions had unfixed recalls, including car fires, loss of control on the road, even rollovers. You have brakes that fail, steering that fails, lights that dont work, safety defects. Reporter do used car dealers always disclose the danger . We went under cover at several where we found used cars for sale with open safety recalls. This is it. Reporter at this dealer, we check out this nissan suv. We ran the vin and know its been recalled for airbags that may not work. Good news. The dealer is open about it. Thats something we always check. There is an open Service Record for recall. If i wanted to drive the car off the lot today and buy it . I think we would probably get it fixed for you today. Reporter at this next dealer. I was interest in that 2007 hyundai up front. Reporter we arent so lucky. A brand new set of tires on it. Reporter this dealer says it needs a new sensor and has a lot of miles. But no safety problems. Its perfectly safe. I ran it through my mechanic, did his 1 wh00 point something inspection on it. Reporter 100 point inspection, thats great. This car has been recalled for a stopped lamp switch that could keep the Cruise Control running even when you hit the breaks, a malfunction that could lead to a crash. Records show this car hasnt been fixed but the dealer doesnt tell us that. Reporter so theres nothing i donneed to worry about . Shouldnt be, otherwise we wouldnt have it here. Reporter time for us to break this deal. Hi, jeff rossen from nbc news. Did you know there is an open recall on this car, potentially dangerous one . I didnt know that. Reporter you didnt know . No. If i did, i would have it fixed. Reporter thats your job. Youre selling this to customers and telling them outwardly this car is safe and theres an open safety recall on this. I apologize for that. I do the best i can and i cant look up every make and model car there is. Reporter experts say thats outrageous. It takes just minutes to look up a recall. He didnt want to talk anymore. Reporter at this next dealer, were checking out this popular honda minivan. Looks great. But we know it has an open recall for the brakes. They may not work well. Listen to what the dealer tells us. No safety defects . No. I can show you the carfax and drive. Reporter anything on it i need to worry about . No. Im willing to show it to you. If theres nothing on it, i aint going to show it to you. Reporter he shows us another report that doesnt track recall recalls. No problems or anything . Otherwise you would see red. Reporter i have questions and the safety manager comes out. If there were safety recalls it would be your manager said there were no recalls. That is something i would probably need to talk to him about. Reporter what if a person bought it and got in an accident. Reporter youre talking about a safety recall . Why does it take me to tell you . I will take care of it. Reporter we took it to the Group Responsible for used car dealers. It should be released. Reporter believe it or not there is no federal law requiring them to. Reporter sitting here, would you support a bill to require these car dealers to fix every car they take in . Ion that i would take that point at this point. Reporter because you represent the industry. Just because of where were at with the industry as a whole. Reporter he shade theres no reliable database for recalls and consumers need to do their homework, too. Safety experts say thats a weak excuse. Until dealers have to fix these cars, drivers are at risk. Theyre a threat to you, your family and any riding on the road with you. Reporter we should mention it is free to find recalls and also free to fix them. Good news is you can do it yourself. Heres how. Go to our website right now, today.

Gellman cures are popular and can prevent your nails from chipping, all the rage right now. Can the ultraviolet lights used in the process increase risk of skin cancer. Dr. Taylor is here to clear up the confusion. Good morning to you. We all want the gellman cure because it lasts so long. What is the bottom line as there have been conflict iing stories. As dermatologists were concerned about the light that can cause skin cancer and wrinkling. Recently there was a small study indicating that the light emitted probably is not harmful. Were a little cautious about that data because its only one study and a very small one. There has been a different study that suggested it might pose a risk. Thats correct. We reached out to the nail Manufacturers Council on safety. G gels have been used for years and are better than ever and the equivalent of only a couple minutes of exposure to sunlight and as always, users should follow manufacturers instructions. How long typically do you have your hand in there . Is it enough to cause skin cancer . Typically 8 to 10 minutes and women typically have it done twice a month. Thats the question. As a dermatologist, we like to air on the side of being caution. A couple things we can do that will allow them to do the manicure safely. Lets bring the lights up so people can see. The first is on your hand. What we recommend, get white cotton gloves, clip the tips off and put them on your hands before you put it under the light. That will protect your skin. The other is apply a sunscreen to your hands. You know how the manicure moisturizes it . Have her moisture your hands with sunscreen . Would you moisture or use sunscreen . Both. So you know your hand is protected. Netted of removing, they use this ascy this as acetone and regular polish doesnt work. It can be very drying. And tinfoil is applied over top. Thats very drying to the nails, which can cause brittleness and splitting. Very quickly, i know you dont like the fact the nail is covered so long because you cant see irregularities . You could miss a fungal or bacteria infection. Good information. Thank you so much, dr. Taylor. I guess its basically use in moderation. Thats right. And safely.

Were back now. 8 15 with a touching tribute to the late nora ephron. Her son is honoring her with this piece in New York Times magazine. Its already on their website and a lot of people have read it and talking about it this morning. Well talk to him in a moment. First, nora ephrons remarkable legac legacy. As a screenwriter, nora ephron had a way with words. I better deliver this. I have a very thirsty date. Shes part camel. In her movie, her observations about men and women earned a place in our hearts with iconic unforgettable scenes. Yes yes oh ill have what shes having. Ef sfron broke into the boys club of hollywood directors with hits like sleepless in seattle and youve got mail. Now, her son, jacob, is taking center stage in an essay and says his mom hoped they would lead the kind of lives and did stuff big enough they would occasionally say, wow, i wish mop was around for this. While she did not disclose her six year battle with leukemia to most of the world. He points out she directed julia and julia and blog post s. She kept working and nora ephron, fearless, she kept going until the very end. I got to read this last night. Its beautiful, candid, very personal. I know as a writer and as the son of nora ephron, you must have stopped 50 times while you wrote this and thought, what would mom think about this . Would she think it was good . Yes. Would it be good enough was the biggest question on my mind because she would have found a way to be funny about it, she would have found a way to be heartbreaking about it and all that. That was what she was, you know, great at. Would she have minded that you do reveal so many private and personal moments of her last days and weeks . Because she kept this illness so private, how do you think she would have felt about that . Thats a good question. Beaut my mothers mother, who was also a writer, always said everything is copy. When she was on her death bed, she said to my mother, take notes and my mother did. I dont think im doing something out of sync with did you take notes while your mom was dying . I did. How did she feel about that . She knew i was sort of keeping a journal of what happened. Obviously, when she went in for chemo, we thought it might go well and you think, then i wont have to use this. But the possibility, it seemed to me, existed it would not and i would want to be able to remember stuff later on. I had the pleasure of interviewing your mom on several occasions, the pleasure of sitting next to her at a couple of dinner parties. She was delightful and very funny. One of the things that stood out to me you wrote, even as she slipped in and out of a kind of consciousness, she retained her sense of humor. She did. There was this moment the nurses and doctors were saying to her, tell me your name. She says nora ephron. They say, what hospital are you in . New york hospital. Whos the president of the United States . Shiites couldnt answer or was done answering and rolled her eyes and wouldnt answer. Lost her patience. Her career is legendary and movies seared into our conscience. Guy you think her writing and style of writing resonated with so many people. I think her level of movies isnt true of so many big blockbuster movies and comedies. You look at sleepless in seattle and the whole thing with an affair to remember and what was being commented on internet culture before other people were writing about it and acknowledging that people really went on the internet to date and to meet each other. I think that these movies operated on levels that you didnt see ordinarily. Finally, you were candid with your mom before she died and you said, mom, im paraphrasing here, mom, im not sure after youre gone ill be able to write again. I certainly wondered if i would want to because she was always the person whose approval i looked to. She was absolutely the one that you waited for the email from, s saying, you know, great job. She was also the person who, you know, when i was working on something, and kind of she could tell i had been on the story for a couple of weeks and she would say, have you called at least two dozen people on this yet . You kind of go, oh, god, because she was usuallyright. I think she would find this beautiful, because the piece is truly its candid and its touching and i hope a lot of people get a chance to read it when it appears in the New York Times magazine this sunday. Jacob, thank you for sharing your thoughts. Thank you. I appreciate it. It is now 8 21. Lets go to savannah. Matt, thanks. To a rare interview with one of britains most acclaimed actress, maggie smith or as fans of abbey know her, the count. Michelle was lucky enough to interview her. Before we sat down with dame maggie smith, we heard how she never does interviews, intimidates everyone, we found out how she was hilarious and could never have been funnier about the persona and how playing older stronger characters helped her accept aging. Reporter an ocean away from hollywood, miles from imposing do downtown abbey where she rules as the more imposing violet of grantham. Dame maggie smith in real life casually declines makeup or primping, cant imagine why we want to talk to her. I dont know. Id prefer to be somebody else. Selling myself always feels a bit odd. I never think its that interesting. Reporter not that interesting to her as a career spanning more than half a century. Oscars, golden globes. Shes even been in clash of the titans, sister act and kotter. That was bloody brilliant. Thank you for that assessment. Reporter most recently, the Marigold Hotel and playing a real diva. This is a madhouse. Reporter directed by Dustin Hoffman and directed by a woman somehow in this field just accepted ageing a long time ago. Everybody lies about their age and injects their faith. I know. I kind of missed out on all that. If i had started earlier doing all that reporter do you think you would have . I dont know. I truly think if i went to los angeles, i think id frighten people. They dont see old people. Reporter while she feels the loss of ability, at a very busy 78, she has not experienced, is a sad thing, its good to portray it as a rich part of life. Ive been playing old parts forever. I play 93 quite often. When youve done it more than once, you take the hint. I think its a great hurt if youre one of those fantastic stars who have always been beautiful, then i think its hard. Reporter youve always been beautiful. Please, pull yourself together. Reporter its true. Im talking about those amazing young girls. Reporter now, her star is rising lower as the countess sachets into american living rooms and enthralls us. Oftening ill have the weekend. What is a weekend. She has to drop down dead at some point. Must be about 110 logically. I dont know whats going to happen. Reporter youve had enough of her . No. Im only kidding reporter again, dame maggie surprised us by admitting underneath the jewels and oneliners, she is scared. Reporter when youre violet sitting there in your incredible hat, are you nervous . Like a lump of jelly, worried if i dont get this speech right, im done for. And Dustin Hoffman in his directorial debut is also nervous. Hard to imagine you and Dustin Hoffman nervous what youre doing. Were all juggering like crazy. It was so amazing to have somebody who knew what it felt like to be on the other side of the camera. Reporter do you think people will be terribly disappointed that youre really nice and really not like violet . If they meet me, theyll find out the truth, that im really me. She had no trouble playing someone older. It will be released in the u. S. Tomorrow. Thank you so much. Coming up, the best new Beauty Products of the year. After the local news. Good morning. 8 26.

Were back at 8 37. On todays pets, an animal inspired many to save her cats. Good morning to you. This woman is incredible. She may be pintsized but the 72yearold dynamo has the heart of a sanctuary and because of her actions, countless animals have been saved. Reporter i look at you as a cat crusader. Not just cats. Dogs, goats. Chickens. Reporter welcome to goat house refuge, a tranquil nonprofit no kill animal sanctuary, tucked way on 16 acre s in north carolina. Reporter how many animals have you save in your mission . I know we found good homes for the cats. About 900 cats since we started. This is the oldest cat of the house. Reporter this Mighty Mission falls on some pretty tiny shoulders. At only five feet tall and barely 100 pounds, she is a force to be reckoned with. Come on. Reporter her passion and commitment to all these creatures is awe inspiring, as she meticulously cares for countless cats she has rescued and nurtured and now. For adoption. Not to mention her own personal mega min nagry of fur angels. Everywhere you look. Whos that little guy up there hiding . Reporter in every nook. What about the little guy up above . Reporter theres a kitty. You first hear that. You think woman small house, up to 200 cats, you think, ah yep. Reporter yet it is so the opposite with you. Look at the animals, they all love each other and so happy here. They all come and go as they please. Reporter thats whats amazing, you have an open door no cage policy. They stay warm, you can see them climbing the trees and playing with each other. Reporter another reason the cats are so dear is when growing up as a child in italy, it was kitten that not only changed her life but saved her life. When i was a very little girl, i couldnt deal with anybody. One night my father came home in the winter with this little kitten. There was a creature that could understand me and i could understand the kitty. Reporter because of that little kitten, youre able to communicate . Totally. That little creature became the most important thing in my life. Reporter when shes not feeding, caring for, cleaning up after or cuddling her creatures, you can find her creating art. As an aecom accomplished ceramicist, she sells her art for the daunting cost of her sanctuary. I have to raise 20,000 every month and i put it on my credit card and little by little i pay them back. You put it on your credit card and hope and pray. Thats all i do. Reporter you literally live hand to animals mouth. Absolutely. Reporter but as worried as you are on a daily basis, what about the joy from what youve done . My god, its enormous. Enormous. No comparison. In my life, i dont have a day when i feel that life is not worth living because of them. Reporter she is a true saint. She says the majority of the cats are adoptable.

Pillsbury toaster strudel. If beethoven made breakfast. Good morning, matt. Daniel cook started as a volunteer at Georgetown University hospital. But her unique program is having so much success, doctors say every hospital should have their own danielle. The secret to her popularity, food. Reporter at first glance, its hard to imagine these children are sick. Its good reporter but each and every one is battling cancer. You want to stir . Reporter a diagnosis no parent wants to hear. The soup is almost ready. Reporter she knows from personal experience. It was a nightmare. Reporter a decade ago she learned her son, fabian, had stage three hodgkins lymphoma. Any parent whose child has to go through this, a parent would willi willingly happily trade places and do this for them but you cant. Reporter he faced surgery, chemotherapy and radiation which devastated his body. It feels like getting hit by a bus and finally standing up and when you stand up you get hit by train. Reporter keeping up his strength was battle, advice from the hospital as many calories as possible any way you can. They said let him eat mcdonalds, junk food. They said he needs the calories. If that means french fries and fastfoods, do it. You said . I said, well, that doesnt make a lot of sense to me. Instead, danielle focused her efforts on something she could do. Cook. First, you take a chicken, really where oo start it. It really is. I went back to good homemade chicken broth. It worked. It works, it did. Chicken soup was just the start. Danielle went back to school, got a masters in nutrition and started to experiment with ingredients and recipes. Along the way, wonderful news. Fabian finished his treatment. No offense to anybody in this room but she is the best mother in the world. While most people would be happy to move on, danielle decided she had to give back, which meant going back. So armed with groceries, she returned to Georgetown University hospital, where her son had been treated and volunteered in the pediatric oncology clinic. You guys having fun today . Ever since, shes been teaching parents about nutrition and how to cook foods that will help with treatment and recovery. Including some recipes they never imagined their kids would ea eat. I can give them love and food. That was really important. When he liked the food, that was even better. Being really tasty and really yummy. Should every Oncology Program have a danielle . Absolutel absolutely. Dr. Shad is chief of oncology. I truly believe cancer you cannot take care of in isolation. Its critical for them to eat right. The pasta sauce the pesto . Yes. Danielle wanted to do even more. What about all the other Cancer Patients out there . With the help of georgetown hospital, she just published this book, happily hungry, filled with recipes and chapters to guide patients through all the stages of cancer treatment. Perfect. Thats good. So good. Starring none other than the children shes cooked with at the hospital. Devon, simone, aden. If you look carefully at the cover of the book, you might just recognize 6yearold peter. These are good. You made a delicious drink. For their parents, its been a godsend. It made me feel like a better mom. It made me feel like i could take care of my son the way he needed. Danielle, what is the most important thing you feel youre doing there . Food has an amazing healing quality to it. It allows the parent to really feel like, i can do this. I can help heal my child. The need for Good Nutrition with cancer treatment, matt, its just common sense, but sometimes it takes a mother to put together a program like this. Now, they hope it will spread to hospitals across the country, and the great part is those recipes, theyre good for all patients, really good for all people, not just children. No. It should spread to hospitals across the country, jamie. Thank you. We appreciate it. You can find a few of those recipes and in the book on today. Com.

Dannon back now with a man from new yorks long island facing potentially jail time for laughing too loud in his own home. This is hard to believe. Ready for this one . Whats your best laugh. [ laughter ] sorry. Itont get you arrested. Laughter may be the best medicine but also Roberts Court date for disturbing the peace. Anything can set off a feud between neighbors from dogs barking to wild parties. But this . [ laughter ] reporter robert has what can only be described as a unique laugh. But his neighbor is so bothered by it he called the police. I was looking out the window and see him pull in the driveway. He gets out over there by the bush and then he just starts staring at me. So i just dont say anything, i just start laughing at him. Reporter he and his mother, suzanne, say the dispute with the neighbor started over renovations and escalated when the neighbor began to make fun of the 41yearold because of a neurological impairment his family says he was born with. If they dont like something, they start eyeballing us. He gives a men nev lent stare. Then, hes graduated to calling robert names. Mocking the way he walks. Reporter the neighbor who made the complaint, daniel, could not be reached for comment but his wife told the New York Post the police investigated and found there was cause. I think the police did what they thought was best. The Rockville Center police told nbc news they issued several prior warnings to him and witnesses his behavior and witnessed this individual creating a disturbs to neighbors in violation of local law. He was been ticketed twice for disturbing the peace and faces 500 or a month in jail. Legal experts say jail time isnt likely. Technically you could go to jail for disturbing the police. As a former prosecutor and public defender, i can tell you i never put any in jail for laughing or disturbing the peace or being loud, usually just a small fine. At his arraignment earlier this week, the judge declined to dismiss the case. His lawyer says he will keep fighting the fine but the next court date has not been set yet. You have to admit its a little infectious. We were all laughing. Hopefully they will come to some sort of agreement. You hope so. With neighbors, its hard if no one is willing to move.

I know family favorite you will show is a take on the Grilled Cheese sandwich. Exactly. You make this with your boys . I make this with my boys. Theres a beautiful saying that says know where you come from to know what your legacy will be. For me, cooking really combines the two worlds. These are dishes i grew up eating and nurtured me in my home country. Now, i make them here in my new home. It connects things beautifully because you can find all these ingredients now. I xwgrew up eating these with m family and make them for my boys and gives a new american spin. And we will first start with what you put on top. Sure. We have the chopped tomato. These are the raw and chunky parts. You have onion, tomato, you can keep the seasoning and everything in there. Cilantro. Then you can use hchili and lim juice. Depending what people do, some people add olive oil, some dont depending what you like. This is fabulous. After you mix it all, let it sit for like 10 minutes so it all comes together. Marinates. Yeah. You can play with other ingredients. Add celery. Lets start first with the bread. You like the sandwich, this bread . Right. Anything thats crusty in individual sizes. You cut it into two individual pieces and then you spread refried beans. Like so. You can make your own refried beans at home or buy them in a can. Refried beans are pretty healthy, if you get the ones without lard in it, right . Exactly. So nutritious and earthy. Then you go with the cheeses. You like a mix of cheese . I like something melty, not too overpowering, cheddar, go with whatever you have as long as it melts. Put that in the oven, eight minutes. Then your topping. You want to go vegetarian . No. A spoon full of bacon for you. And you top with ripe mexican avocado avocados. Get your pico right. A beautiful spread. Yeah.

From nbc news this is today with Kathie Lee Gifford and hoda kotb live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. Okay, everybody. Hoda is wondering where her big storm went. Thirsty thursday, march 7th. We were waiting for the storm, and it turned into flurries. A couple of big flakes. The Washington Post called it a flopper for what they thought was going to be a huge shutdown. Soyou are always grateful th theyre wrong about these things, but theyre so often wrong, arent they . Except al. Al is right. Al. Heres the thing. This weekend again on the east coast and a lot of places its going to be in the 50s and bright. Read in the paper this morning no. I just saw it. The paper was yesterdays news. No, no. Today is here. Youre right, hoda. And we spring forward. We get the longer days, which who doesnt like that . A lot of people dont. A lot of people say it upsets me. It takes me a week or two to get used to it. Grow up. That is they do say they would rather have it on saturday so that, you know, like friday night you are you do it so that you wake up and spring forward on saturday morning where theyre sleeping in anyway. I do think it is an interesting concept. For those around the rest of the globe and watch all of us change our clocks except for arizona and then watch us do it all again in the fall. I think that nobody would do it if they were all if we were a churchgoing country because it only really affects people that go to church. Well, no. Now if you are going if you are going to the 8 00 the 9 00 service or the 9 00 mass or Something Like that, you see what im saying . It affects those. What do you do on a sunday morning usually . It depends. I go for a run. I have breakfast. Do you care if its at 8 00 or 9 00 . It doesnt matter to you. Yes, it does. I like it when its lighter. Im not saying that. Im saying you dont have to get up for something thats youre not on the clock on sunday. Youre not a hooker. Youre not on the clock on sunday morning. On to kim k. Kim kardashian was on a flight, and shes been on several flights, and this one took her from l. A. To paris, and she was returning from that trip to paris with kanye, her boyfriend, and she started feeling sick on the flight, and she was worried she was having a miscarriage, and it turns out she wasnt, which is the good news, but the doctors did tell her she hz to slow down and stop doing so much traveling because shes been in several places over the last week or so. I told you a couple of weeks ago when i had lunch with kris, she had just come back from rio de janeiro, and then went to nigeria, and then went to i have traveled all my life, but im not pregnant, but i know that is a huge toll on your body. It really is. Youre sitting there a long time. You get dehydrated. Its a tough one. Shes really working out a lot and she was obsessively working out seven days a week because shes very worried about, you know, not being worried about being able to bounce back after the baby and stuff like that. She has to think of herself as models do even though shes not what we all think of as a classical uber model with the shes got to think about that she is her own brand. Yeah. And so you got to protect it, but at the same time you got to put your child first. You got to. You got to. Youll pay for it later in one way or the other. When do you stop flying when you are pregnant . I didnt they dont like you in your third trimester, but they really dont like it once you have hit eight months. I did it. And your kids are fine. Yeah. I had two miscarriages as well. Both of them in colorado. Oh. Theres the high incidence of miscarriage in colorado, and they think its altitude related. I think she should for the sake of the baby just came down a little bit. Rest. Enjoy this time. Eat for two, and deal with it later. You know, leo decaprio was on a japanese talk show we cant get him on the fourth hour, but he will go to japan. I see him in the greenroom all the time. Going to japan to do a talk show. Celebrity imitations they asked if he could do a celebrity imitation, and heres a photo of what he did. Wow. Look at the eyebrows. Is that crazy . Did his voice sound like him as well . I didnt hear it or see it. I just saw this photo because it was in japan. Next time he is in the greenroom, im going to ask him to do it for us. Thats really good. He is spot on with that. He is so talented. He really is. Weve been complaining about airlines. Theyre allowing knives on again, and Different Things are happening, and its been bad press, but we have a little bit of good news for this is a very, very sweet story. We have always said the problem is not with the airlines, things that go wrong. Its that they dont communicate with you and tell you whats going on. Theyre not honest with you, so you are sitting around wondering which makes your anxiety build. This is a San Francisco man who was trying to reach his dying mother who only had i guess about 24 hours to live. He got stuck on a delayed flight, which happens. Any time you have youre making connections and stuff, risking making a houston connection to lubbock, texas. Its not easy to get to, lubbock. Its not. Sometimes when you are in houston, you have to get on that air tran thing, and there were so many other modes of transportation before he got on the plane he needed to make, and it was delayed so, he thought, you know, im never going to make this connection, but he did the full on sprint, and he ran for the plane, and when he got there, he was surprised to find out that the plane was waiting for him. The gate agent knew his name. They had communicated from the other gate agent, like, please hold they knew the story. They held the plane for 15 to 20 minutes, and not one person on that flight complained because they were told what was happening. They were told. I think weve all been sitting on the plane thinking whats taking so long, and then you watch someone with lots of bags get on, and you think where were you . You dont know the back story. But when you hear apparently when he walked on, everybody was just so loving towards him because they knew. Sort of put yourself in that position. If it was my mom, would i want people to be gracious and wait for 15 minutes so that i could say goodbye to her . He was able to. He made it with just very little time. United airlines, good for you. United airlines. I think you know what, often with the communication like you said, sometimes you dont know if its a mechanical or when you are waiting, and they dont tell you. When everyone is grumbling, and pretty soon you can feel the action newsing sfwlit nblg the plane. Just be honest. Its like a relationship, hoda. They fall apart when theres no communication. Or honesty. Honesty is the best is always the best policy. Almost always. This is going to upset you all very much, as if we havent done that already. This guy delivered 85 pizzas. Imagine this. 1,500 worth of pizzas. Look at the tip the guy gave him. The pizza cost almost 1,500. The trip was 10. Even if he just left off one zero its kind of sad. That would be good. They have it on file . I dont know. I just its crummy. I wonder what the he made it viral just so the person would be i wonder if he is embarrassed, though. It is weird when you get a food delivery that comes to your house because the person thats bringing it to you i always gauge my tipping on the weather. If its a terrible weather situation, i usually tip well. Like the storm was supposed to be. Its the storm of the century or raining. In new york they travel on bikes, so you know its much more difficult than getting in and out of a car. Does it ever have anything to do with how far they came . Like if the restaurant is next door or down the block. Sometimes. Even in new york they say not in our area. See you later. It does matter if its far away, and i also feel like those guys they do the hardest work, guys and girls, they do really tough work, and they probably dont get a lot. Im sure they dont our question is should it just be the regular 20 that you would pay at a restaurant for a nice service . Its one thing they do, and then they leave, although they do have to travel. Whats your feeling on the whole thing . Tipping, we want to know how much you tip delivery people. Let us know. I think its different for city people as opposed to out in the country. In new york they will deliver one milky way bar from a bodega if you have the number. At your hello. Oh, heres the candy bar. You can get things like that. New york is a great place for delivery, and you can get anything in your apartment. I would be embarrassed to order one thing. Bring a couple of cases. Make it worth your while. Me too. You know who else has been very kind about something . Our viewers are sending you support. Theyre like a good pair of spanx. They are supporting you in this whole thing. Heres the deal. You recall i was talking about how people have been writing in saying they hate that black and white dress. Only because i keep wearing it repeatedly, and didnt realize if i did wear it toomts. I just zipped it up and put it on and its comfy, and i liked it. We had our researchers, kyle, look into exactly how many times i have worn it over the past couple of weeks. No. A couple of months. Is that really different days . Its only eight times. The only way you can tell is by the earrings. At least you changed it up. A lot of people support you. You know, a lot of people are having a lot of trouble making ends meet. Most people, unless im on television, i wear the same stuff all the time. I wear it a bunch of times on television. Some of us i just i dont know. I think sometimes i like to mix things up. I dont keep the stuff i wear. I give it back. I actually checked the calendar to see when i last wore this one. It was recently. No, it wasnt. It was a month or maybe more. This is i kind of got into a little bit of a Southern Country mood. I played that last kind of southern song last time. Oh, its time for that. Ihoda. This one is this is old school country, and i just have been in that mood lately. Im going to do a little alabama. Love it already. I guarantee you.

Woolite everyday, cleans your jeans and wont torture your tanks. Woolite washed clothes look like new, longer. You know the saying dont judge a book by its cover. Most of us are taught not to make assumptions on people based on how they look. New Research Suggests that being biassed or judgmental is hardwired in our dna. Here to tell us what to do about that is Womens Health editor in chief michelle and psychologist dale. Hello, ladies. Good to see you all. This is in dangerous territory a little bit, because we dont want anybody to start thinking just because its in my dna, its okay to be aa racist. This new research did show somewhat that we all do harbor biases. They do run pretty deep. Are most of those things learned . I dont know why you would think certain things about certain people medicals you grew up listening to your parents or somebody talk about it. Thats exactly right, hoda, and what happens is that the brain is really signalling us, oh, my goodness, were frightened, and then what were frightened about is what we have learned. As michelle said, a lot of this is so deepseeded, but its deepseeded because its been reinforced culturally, by our family, and then when we get, this oh, my gosh, im on alert, we say how will i respond . We respond in ways also that we learn. This stems back to, like, caveman, cave woman days, and anybody who is an outsider that didnt look like us or sound like us was seen as a threat. Didnt they all lookalike . They were going take our food and our shelter. Obviously that doesnt apply now, but theres a hangover from those days. I dont see it as necessarily a bad thing. If you are walking along restaurant row here in new york, and you pass by all different kinds of food and you think im going to have thai food tonight, youve discriminated against all of the others in a way, but you have the right to go get thai food. Thats what the brain is supposed to do. The brain is supposed to be able to help you differentiate all of the input of all of the information thats in your environment. Okay. What if a girl walks in right now and she has a very, very low cut dress thats also cut very high . Now, youre automatically going men are going to love it. Women are going to say slut. You dont necessarily know that thats the case with her, but shes given you signals, and thats what you believe. You have a reaction, and then you have to override that reaction with your well, its just really by doing it. By changing a negative thought into a more positive thought and conditioning yourself that way. Committee we can all use our higher mind instead of going back to that judgy primitive mind. Say she is a slut, the men are going to be happy that she is. I dont want to touch this. We can be exposed to all of these things, and we can either just because were exposed, and were lets pretend theres an overweight person in the ice cream line. There are some people who would look at that sxhern say, oh, my god, they dont need it. Thats their conditioning. Thats what they would say. The issue is its also true that that person ordering ice cream should probably order something thats better for them. Thats judging. Isnt that judgy . Something healthier. Gee, i hope they get the so theyll be healthier. You cant help the thought, but you can analyze the thought. You can understand the thought and retrain your brain, so as what michelle said was just so important that you really have to be able to understand why we feel the way we do and then make a conscious effort, be aware, make a conscious effort to change the way you think and behave and that is where awareness, number one. You guys are cognizant of how you think and react, and not everybody is. Thats the point. You are doing it on a subconscious level. If you know you are doing it, you can react more appropriately. I know you know people in that group, whatever the group is that you feel weird about, i think if you know more people in that group and you understand, the more you you tend to be much more the study found that exposing yourself to people that you feel positively about that are in that group that you might normally judge is one of the ways to shift your behavior. Thats totally looking at people as individuals and really getting together you should be doing that anyway. We should, but we dont often, and working together as a team. When you work you do. Youre your worst critic. You cannot believe how many cakes i ate and the youre your own worst critic about it. Why did this become about me . I overeat sometimes. A whole bag of jelly beans.

Today we meet our nighest p has a story contest winner. 36yearold daniel and his girlfriend mindy. Daniel wrote to us to tell us about his diagnosis with a rare stage four cancer and mindys constant support. Were going to meet everybody in a moment, but, first, lets listen to daniels story. I was recently diagnosed with a rare cancer at age 35. During hurricane sandy, my mother became severely ill and was in the intensive care unit in florida. My girlfriend, mindy, and i live in new jersey. We were without power and unable to get a flight to florida where my mother was fighting for her life. We finally were able to rent a car and drive there to see her. During my visit with my mother in icu, i was having a severe stomach ache and was admitted to the hospital. On november 17th my mother passed, and on november 19th i was diagnosed with stage four rare peritinial cancer. My girlfriend, mindy, was devastated by the news, as was my father. Mindy is an amazing woman and works with underprivileged kids. She is extremely giving. During the past couple of years we have raised money together for organizations and trained to run in order to honor people that are sick. On december 19th i went to maryland to have major surgery to remove as much cancer as possible to help prolong my life. I was in the operating room for close to 12 hours and spent four weeks in the hospital. Mindy slept in the hospital by my side. Unfortunately, my cancer is rare, and there is not much they can do at this point. Our dreams of having a family and a life together are now in turmoil. Especially getting married. We missed christmas and new years. I was in such bad shape that for weeks i could not move or speak. I was just laying in my hospital bed. I am still recovering from the surgery and have limited mobility and pain. The prognosis is not good due to the type of cancer. Mindy has stuck by my side through everything. I would like to do Something Special to honor her. And thats what we hope to do today. Daniel is here with his girlfriend, mindy, and his father, larry. Were so, so glad you could make the trip. You seem like youre doing pretty darn well, daniel. Im working hard at it. How are you feeling . Um, its hard. Its you know, every day i have new challenges, and i guess thats part of having cancer, but, you know, i was glad that i was able to get here today and, you know, again, just its one of those things i never thought would happen to me. Weve always been there, me and mindy, for peerm, and thats what makes this story special. Weve done a lot of these everyone has a story, and often you would be the person that mindy would write in about, but instead your bravery. But instead you did it in the opposite way. What is it about your girlfriend . We learned about her in the piece. Mindy is special. I mean, were very similar the way we think. You know, how we want to be there for other people, and just we said earlier weve raised money and worked together really hard to help people and be there for them. That must have been something to hear the news about what your boyfriend had done. Shocked. He didnt remember writing it because so much has been going on in your life, and, larry, you got two terrible diagnosis within a short time. You lose your precious wife of 42 years and then two days later your son. What was going through your mind then, sweetie . Why . Why is this happening .
