And Savannah Guthrie, live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. Good morning. Welcome to today on a thursday morning. Im Savannah Guthrie. Im matt lauer alongside Natalie Morales and al roker. We have a lot of news this morning including new information about the abduction of 16yearold Hannah Anderson. Its coming from newly released search warrants in the case. Well get a live report from san diego straight ahead. Well start with that deadly violence in egypt and new fears it is far from over. Nbcs chief Foreign CorrespondentRichard Engel is in cairo once again for us. Richard, good morning. Reporter good morning. Many of the casualties happened here, this burned out area was the heart of the biggest protest camp and now is being controlled by the Egyptian Security forces. That death toll . Around 500, most demonstrators, but nearly 50 from the Egyptian Army and police. After egypts militarybacked government smashed two protest camps, today it was trying to erase that they ever existed, sweeping away debris, tearing down the stage where demonstrators had been demanding that the ousted, elected president morsi from the Muslim Brotherhood be reinstated. New pictures overnight showed the scale of what happened here as a pro morsi camp several city blocks wide burned. During the 24hour crackdown, police torched the camp and opened fire on demonstrators with live ammunition. Clashes spread outside cairo and islamic extremists, sympathetic to the Muslim Brotherhood joined in, burning churches and attacking government buildings. The Muslim Brotherhood and its allies arent just victims here. Staterun television and newspapers show images of protesters shooting at troops and stockpiling weapons and ammunition. Some cairo residents this morning said theyre all for what the Security Forces did. I support what they did. Reporter Egyptian Police say theyre taking tough action now and want to bring stability like it was under strong man Hosni Mubarak but there will likely be more violence before that, as protesters say theyd rather die than give up. Richard, you just talked about the quest for stability. In the last 24 hours the interim Vice President of egypt elbaradei resigned in the wake of all of the violence. Where are egyptians looking in terms of someone who might bring a sense of stability . Reporter the man of the hour, matt, the general who led the take over of the government, ordered this crackdown to the Muslim Brotherhood. He is public enemy number one. To other egyptians, however, he is a nationalist who is trying to build stability and here in the square weve seen some minor celebrations where people are holding up soldiers, thanking them for what theyve done, and calling out the name of the general. Richard engel live for us in cairo this morning, thank you very much. Well, closer to home we are learning more this morning about the deadly crash of a u. P. S. Cargo plane in birmingham, alabama. Ntsb investigators back at the scene today trying to piece together what happened. Nbcs tom costello covers aviation for us and has the latest. Tom, good morning to you. Hi, savannah. The ntsb was unable to retrieve the black boxes yesterday because the plane was still smoldering, but they hope to retrieve them this morning and then fly them back to washington for analysis. In the predawn sky in birmingham, fire and smoke as u. P. S. Cargo flight 1354 crashed and burned roughly half a mile short of the runway. The pilot and copilot never made it out alive. Seconds before the crash, witnesses thought they heard the engines sputtering or back firing. It flew so close to our house until when we heard the bang it shook the house. So it was quite terrifying. I seen the sky lighting up orange. I seen the plane on fire and i was like, hes not going to make it. I just heard loud noises. Reporter the tower reports no distress calls from the pilots. The fire that consumed the aircraft, intense. We have not been able to get in and get the black boxes if you will, the cockpit voice recorder, the flight data recorder. Reporter investigators hope those recorders will help them understand what went wrong. The plane involved was an air bus a300 built in 2003 with just 11,000 flight hours logged over 6800 flights. The a300 was first built in 1972. While it generally has a good safety record, there have been dozens of incidents and accidents worldwide involving hundreds of fatalities including the crash of american flight 587 in new york in 2001. Among the questions for investigators, did the cargo shift on the u. P. S. Plane . A cargo shift was blamed on a cargo plane crash in afghanistan earlier this year. And was the crew well rest sned new faa requirements only apply to Airline Pilots not cargo pilots. Regardless of what kind of airplane youre flying, fatigue is fatigue, and the same sorts of protections need to be in place. That includes the cargo industry. Reporter in a statement, u. P. S. Says we place utmost importance on the safety of our employees, our customers, and the communities we serve. Investigators will also look closely at the cargo itself being carried. Did it contribute to the crash in any way . Three years ago a u. P. S. Crash in dubai was blamed on a shipment of lithium batteries that overheated and caught fire in flight. There are still many more questions this morning far more than answers and u. P. S. Is promising to fully cooperate with the investigation. Savannah . Tom costello in washington, thank you very much. Natalie is here now with information on a dangerous new wildfire out west. In utah a wildfire has destroyed at least 14 homes and is threatening hundreds of others. Winds kicked back up on wednesday helping to fuel the flames. The fire has consumed an estimated 2,000 acres, 300 homes having been evacuated so far. Army private Bradley Manning took the stand wednesday at his sentencing hearing in the wikileaks case and pleaded with the judge for a chance to become a productive citizen. Nbcs chief pentagon correspondent Jim Miklaszewski joins us now with more. Jim, good morning. Reporter good morning, natalie. Already convicted in the biggest leak of u. S. Secrets in history, Bradley Manning threw himself at the mercy of the court. After long claiming he was a whistle blower, army private Bradley Manning did an abrupt about face. Standing before a military judge, manning apologized for the first time for leaking hundreds of thousands of u. S. Secrets. I am sorry that my actions hurt people, he told the court. Im sorry that it hurt the united states. Manning has been convicted on 20 charges, including espionage, for leaking a treasure trove of secret documents to the wikileaks website and its founder julian assange, including this gun camera video of the u. S. Helicopter attack in baghdad that killed two civilians and wounded children. Manning testified, he thought he could change the world. The army released a photo wednesday of manning dressed as a woman while serving in the military. During the sentencing hearing his attorney argued, manning suffers from gender identity disorder. But manning told the court that was no excuse for my action. He told the judge he knows he must pay the price for his decisions. But in a plea for mercy, asked for the chance to prove hes a good person and can return to a productive place in society. Natalie, that could be a while. The judge expected to sentence manning sometime next week and he could get up to 90 years in a military prison. Jim miklaszewski at the pentagon, thank you. We are hearing for the first time this morning the frantic 911 calls from last fridays deadly crash of the small plane into a connecticut neighborhood. Nbcs Kristen Dahlgren has more. Kristen, good morning. Reporter good morning, natalie. This is the first time were hearing panicked neighbors calling in, but we have a warning. These calls may be difficult to listen to. Within seconds of the crash, calls flooded the towns lone dispatcher. How many people onboard . We dont know. I mean, he was inbound and he they just fell out of the sky and crashed. Reporter sheer panic set in as the scope of the tragedy unfolded. 911. Whats the address of your emergency . God help oh, god reporter the twin propeller plane was upside down when it hit a row of homes just blocks from its destination, Tweed New Haven airport. Are there people injured . The woman is saying that she has two children in the back room where the plane is. Okay. Where did the what did the plane crash into . Into a house. Reporter two sisters, ages 13 and 1, were killed inside that house. The two people onboard the plane, a former microsoft executive and his 17yearold son, were also killed. The father had been flying his son around the east coast on a tour of colleges. I pray for them daily. Reporter a vigil was held for the victims in east haven, saturday, as federal aviation officials look into the cause of the crash. Now, officials should have at least their preliminary report done within the next few weeks and natalie, once the wreckage is cleared, those homes will be demolished so it is unclear when that will happen. Hard to hear those calls. Thanks so much, Kristen Dahlgren. Incredible pictures this morning 45 feet below the ocean surface. They were take nn in the bahama. The diver is known only as tom. Gibson says tom picked one of 15 reef sharks and started to hypnotise it by rubbing its nose, a practice called tonic immobility. Once the smashing was totally calm he was able to pick it up and balance it vertically in one hand until the shark becomes unhypnotised and you want to get out of there. You move your hand and he goes nose first into the sand. Then hes not happy. That works for al, too. I just rub his nose. Totally. Just balances right on my hand like that. Balancing on your hand all the time. Im loving savannahs new do. Lucy, im home. Oh, my. Terrifying. Yeah. I went red. We love it. Well. Itll be fall soon. Very nice. You should wear that dress, that other dress with that hair. That would be crazy. Little orphan annie or something. Just for fun. A change. Different. I did the same thing. No one noticed. Anyway. Lets show you what weve got. Things are finally picking up in the tropics. Weve got two areas were watching, one tropical depression number 5 just coming off the coast of africa. One were most concerned with, though, is investigation area 92l. Right now this is getting ready to come into the gulf and has tons of moisture streaming up. It is going to get caught up in the stationary front across the southeast with 80 Tropical Development. It is going to bring a lot of rain over the next 72 to 96 hours and as that happens we are talking about anywhere from 3 to 5 inches locally up to 8 inches of rain from new orleans to norfolk and thats going to cause big flooding problems as we get into the weekend. Well get to your local forecast in the next 30 seconds. Problems. Good thursday morning to you, friday eve as we like to think about it here on today in the bay taking a live look at low clouds spanning inland. This sunol. With the low clouds, running milder than 24 hours ago, about five degrees warmer to kickoff the day in livermore. That means temperatures are going to be just about as warm today in the heat of the day. 93 for livermore, 70 in San Francisco and 86 on the way to san jose, getting into the weekend, 90 degrees for saturday, upper 90s return on sunday. Battling a almost always deadly illness. This is a parasite found in nature. But every once in a while, it can go into the brain and destroy brain tissue. A 12yearold boy is fighting for his life in miami childrens hospital, and Kaylee Harding who is battling over 1,000 miles away. They have primary amebic calmed p. A. M. There have only bun 128 confirmed cases in th its almost 100 fatal. Only one person has ever survived. So doctors took notice when within the last month two cases suddenly appeared. Your stomach just drops. Because it, you know, it has an over 99 mortality. The organism that causes this illness is commonly found in fresh water lakes, ponds, and rivers. Zachary was knee boarding in a waterfilled ditch. Kaylie was swimming at a water park which has since been shut down. She has been given an experimental antifungal drug and it seems to k working. Kaylie is doing wonderful. After more than two weeks on a ventilator she is breathing on her own and has even been able to write a note to her father. Zacharys family remains hopeful. Hes fighting. He is strong. Hes really, really strong. Reporter for the doctors this is uncharted territory. Youre pulling out all the stops and doing everything you can in hopes that you have a chance to save the patient. Nancy, what is striking about this besides the rarity is how two doctors in two different states are really working together to try to save these children. These things happen, savannah, to your point, doctors share information. They want to see who is doing what, what are the tricks they have up their sleeves. When rare cases happen there just isnt much of a protocol to go from. So the fact that kaylie is doing well in arkansas may be because they detected this early and threw this experimental antifungal drug at her and lowered her body temperature very quickly. They are also battling time. Hour by hour theyll be in touch with each other and, frankly, theyre going to keep swapping information so they can figure this one out. All right.

Let us begin with new scrutiny of the clinton familys Charitable Foundation amid reports of infighting and mismanagement. Nbcs Peter Alexanders in washington with details on this. Peter, good morning. Reporter good morning to you. With all the 2016 president ial speculation swirling, Hillary Clinton is now set to turn the Family Foundation that was of course first established by her husband more than a decade ago into Mission Control for whats becoming an increasingly jampacked public life. But that move is fueling new scrutiny. For one of americas most powerful families, its the family business, the newly renamed bill, hillary, and Chelsea Clinton foundation. Reporter that since 2001 has directed crucial attention and resources to everything from lifesaving medicines in africa to Community Development here in the u. S. As first reported by the new york times, a 2011 review of the foundation raised concerns about infighting, bad management, and conflicts of interest. Observers say echoing problems in bill clintons white house and his wifes 2008 campaign. They have grand ambitions and get a lot done, but they also have messiness. Reporter the times reports the Foundation Run multimillion dollar deficits which the foundation disputes. Among its expenses, a firstclass ticket for Clinton Global Initiative guest Actress Natalie portman who brought her pet yorkie, and months worth of International Flights for employees working on a Climate Change proposal that never materialized. If there are problems at the foundation, they are now Hillary Clintons problems. And thats the big challenge for her in 2016. Reporter the Clinton Foundation directed us to this statement by its board chairman, bruce lindsay, who said, were trying to institutionalize the foundation so that it will be here long after the lives of any of us. Thats our challenge, and that is what were trying to address. Meanwhile, as talk of 2016 intensifies, new reports that the former secretary of state may go back to school. A return to academia. Clinton insiders confirm shes fielding offers from colleges and universities, including harvard, yale, and nyu. The thought being that that could give Hillary Clinton a nonpartisan platform for future policy speeches. You know, with the former first lady and Chelsea Clinton who, by the way, is also an nbc news special correspondent, joining the fold at the foundation, a lot of washington observers say the organization is going to be forceded to evolve to really accommodate a former president , a possible future president , and their highprofile daughter. Matt and savannah . Peter alexander, thank you very much. Hard to imagine they could be more under a microscope. Perhaps they will be. Lets get outside to al roker, hes on the plaza to check the weather outside. Good morning again. [ cheers ] you know, when theres a Jimmy Buffett concert, there will be conservatively dressed people.

Now to a big moment in the trial of michael jackson. His exwife debbie rowe was very emotional when she took the stand. Since her 1997 divorce, debbie rowe has tried to avoid the spotlight. She was forced to testify about the king of pop. She was often in tears. He respected doctors incredibly. His fear of pain was incredible and i think doctors took advantage of him that way. Right n rowe was there when he was provided treatments. These idiots were going back and forth all the time not caring about michael. They would call and say they have a better drug, they were competing. She said jackson used the drug that killed him, propofol, as early as the mid 1990s. Rowe said that while he was touring in europe, his hotel room was turned into a surgical suite. Jacksons family is suing aeg live saying they were responsible for hiring dr. Conrad murray who gave jackson the lethal dose of propofol. It was a risky move calling debbie rowe. Who knows if they will believe her. If they do, they dont know if there are other doctors behaving badly. On the other hand, he was so vulnerable and gullible, aeg should have been more careful. Aeg live who called rowe as a witness hope to convince the jury that its not their fault. Back in court today, jacksons exwife is expected to face crossexamination. For today, nbc news los angeles.

According to new research in the big disconnect boys who engage in this form of sexting feel that even though they may be pushing the envelope, they dont feel it is inappropriate. Dr. Robin silverman is a child psychologist. I was a kid, and it took me weeks to get the courage to walk up to a young girl and Say Something like i like you or hand her a note, is this the new norm . It is, there are so many mess ans out there that say say this is whats normal. On tv, the internet, the Marketing Campaigns out there that objectify women. I want to present a scenario, and im trying to not be too graphic, a teenage boy will be sitting in a classroom, a teenager girl that he has never even talked to, he will pick up the phone and say do you want to hook up, or i want to do this to you, are you willing . What happened to do you come around here often . There are no lines like that also, youre seeing the proliferation of pornography, and kids are inundated with this. Do you draw the connection between the two . Do you this the sexualization of society is creating this . Yes, and kids cant escape from it. Youre a click away from seeing any sexual image you want to see, and kids are surroundedly this in pop culture, lyrics, film, television, and real thing too. Politicians, sports heros, actors that are doing this, and its not just excused. It is reckless like carlos danger. How did this start . It must be working for some of these kids, otherwise they wouldnt do it. It reminds me of the beautiful woman walking past a construction site. Some guy yells out something vulgar, and i want to say does that ever work for you . Does this work for some teenage boys . I think they say well see if it works, if not ill say it was just a joke. These texts live forever. The kids, today, dont understand the consequences of this type of behavior. If you send a naked picture, it can come back to haunt you in 20 or 30 years. What does this type of behavior, this incredibly sexualized communication do to relationships in general. What happens if these two people have a relationship and what do parents need to know about this . I dont think it is something that creates a very secure relationship. Talking to kids, or presenting to kids, they tell me that the hook up culture makes it so they can get a Competitive Edge in college, theyre not worried about relationships. People in general are cheap, disposable, and easily accessible. So youre a parent, and your kid comes home, youre checking for certain words in any text that child sends . And they delete them by the way. I tell parents you need to look, and listen, explain and engage. Look at the texts their sending, what are they saying about and to girls. Dont wait for them to come to you. Its not the sex talk any more, its a series of talks. And stay hyper vigilant about every form of social media theyre using. Any form of social media that the parents its imperative theyre on there, meeting their kids where they are, and im sorry. You have to be a snoop, a detective. You can tell them youre going to be doing it. If your grandmother, mother, and sister saw the tweet, would you be embarrassed . If so, dont end it. I have a 12yearold, and as i said, ill be paying close attention. We have a more indepth article on today. Com. Coming up, a tug of war over a 3yearold girl. Was again, explaining my moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis to another new stylist. It was a total embarrassment. And not the kind of attention i wanted. So i had a serious talk with my dermatologist about my treatment options. This time, she prescribed humiraadalimumab. Humira helps to clear the surface of my skin by actually working inside my body. In clinical trials, most adults with moderate to Severe Plaque Psoriasis saw 75 skin clearance. And the majority of people were clear or almost clear in just 4 months. Humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. Serious, sometimes fatal events, such as infections, lymphoma, or other types of cancer have happened. Blood, liver and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening Heart Failure have occurred. Before starting humira, your doctor should test you for tb. Ask your doctor if you live in or have been to a region where certain fungal infections are common. Tell your doctor if you have had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have symptoms such as fever, fatigue, cough, or sores. You should not start humira if you have any kind of infection. Make the most of every moment. Ask your dermatologist about humira, today. Clearer skin is possible.

He said president obama passed the time on that eventful day. Most people were down in the situation room, but he was like i cant stay down there and watch, so he and myself we played 15 games of spades. The white house is declined to comment on this. We should note that the president was in the situation room during all of the actual raid, and we wonder how they feel about him writing about this. Dont mention the spades game in a went on. Interesting none the less. Trending this morning on associated press. Can i just tell you, youre missing out. Hempfest is where rebelers gather for an open use of marijuana. This is the first hempfest since Washington State legalized pot use. And the police there are just going with it. Theyre handing out bags of doritos. 1,000 bags. First of all i love doritos. I have like a google alert for doritos. And for hemp. So its not just to satisfy munchies, but they have new information on the laws. Jimmy buffett just jumping on a plane. Well have more with him in a moment. Trending on usa today, the bank of mom and dad. You cant put a price on the joy your kids bring you, but they dont come cheap. Parents with a baby born last year will spend at least 217,000 until the age of 18. The figure could go as high as half a million dollars. Thats an increase of 23 since 1960. What is included in that . Housing, food, transportation, clothing, health care, child care, education. What is not included is the cost of college, and that is about 18,000 on top of that. But theyre worth it. I would rather not know how much the total is. Theyre worth every penny. Now for a trend worth trying. New york as you know is known for their bagels, but few have had them like this. The bantum, a bite sizes bagel. It is like the donut munchkin.

Concert coming up in our 8 30 half hour, and that is what is trending today. Just head, when a celebrity pitches you a weight loss plan, are you inspired or turned off . Coming up, new developments in an emotional child custody case. Adoptive parents desperate to get their daughter back as the biological father stands his ground. Matt, good morning. It is a Cross Country custody battle that extended all the way to the u. S. Supreme court and is raising questions about triable jurisdiction. Now the girls adoptive parents are here to get her back. Today baby veronica remains in limbo. Her adoptive parents matt and melanie are in oklahoma, pleading for her return. It is takes another week, another month, another decade, were not going anywhere. The couple traveled here from South Carolina. The latest chapter in a bitter custody battle in 2009. Her biological mother asked the father for custody. Brown signed the paper work, and then soon off she put the child up for adoption. Browne said he never realized that was an option. I thought i was just signing for her to have full custody. In 2011, a South Carolina court decided that brown should have custody of his daughter. So for the last two years, veronica has lived with him and his wife, robin, in oklahoma. But this summer, the Supreme Court weighed in ruling the federal statute did not apply pap South CarolinaCourt Ordered browne to veronica, but that has not happened. . Charleston, brown cease attorneys asks the judge to reconsider. He has rights, he is a loving father. Back in oklahoma, theyre saying if brown refuses to cooperate, he will be extra dieted back to South Carolina. I feel like the legal battles are distracting what were doing here which is what is best for veronica. The Cherokee Nation is standing by mr. Browne. Gabe, thank you very much. If you apt diet, do you need a celebrity endorsement to buy into a weight loss program. One when is trimming the fat when it comes to all of those famous faces. The diet business is a hefty Industry Worth about 61 billion. And a lot of celebrities fatten their pockets by doing endorsements. Now jenny craig announced they are shifting their focus away from the star spokespeople. We have all seen them, theyre ever where. Celebrities endorsing Weight Loss Companies. Eat your favorite foods. Several big names hit the air waves to tout their own weight loss and collect big paychecks in the process. But does an endorsement from a Hollywood Star really make a difference . Now jenny craig is rolling out new animated ads that focus on foods, not celebrities. Tize advertisers say that celebrity pitches are not the best option. If its a celebrity i really like, i usually remember it, and if its not, i dont sometimes. Sometimes, just what celebrity is making the pitch can be a turn on our a turn off. The basic problem is they dont appeal to everyone. You think about finding a celebrity, its really difficult to find one that fits everyone. They say they dont plan to get rid of famous endorsers completely. They say their new strategy is about delicious pood, personfoo consultants. At any given time, there is about 108 million dieters in the country. More than 80 try to lose on their own, so these companies are appealing to have very big audience. So what does it all mean for the weight loss industry . We have Donny Deutsche and brook albert. Do you think this is a smart move on the part of jenny craig . Yes, if i said to you Jennifer Hudson lost 40 pounds. If i say your next door neighbor lost 40 pounds, its more credible. This celebrity wears this watch, soly be cooler. You dont feel more do you think consumers are getting wiser that even if the celebrity does the diet plan they have so many other advantages that its not at compelling. Stars are not like us, they have so many resources. Nothing is better for weight loss than seeing their neighbor or friend and what worked for them. There is Something Else also happening with celebrities overall. 20 years ago, you saw a celeb any an ad and you go wow, you see them everywhere every second and they dont pop so much. And we have reality people, real is more relevant to people, and i think we will continue to see a downward slope. What does motivate women . Were agreeing its not really the celebrity endorsement. Women like a Weight Loss Community and they like dialogue. Thats really great about seeing someone they recognize or someone that really is like them because its a dialogue they can have if can be two girlfriends talking about what works for them in this weight loss program, and it is really important for women. What do you think, donny, works when it comes to women . These companies are still pouring millions into the endorsement deals, it must work some time. Im going back to aspiration. Michael jordan wears these sneakers, i can jump higher and feel like him. When youre talking about weight loss and some of these programs that are usually associated with the big endorsements, do they work . As a nutritionist, do you say all right, this is a recipe for weight loss . A lot of them do work for weight loss, but what theyre lacking is a recipe for maintenance and how it can work into a lifestyle for the long run, versus an acute weight loss period. What do you think is the most effective selling point for these industries . It is a hue industry. Eat less, exercise more. Boom, you got it. Eat less. Brook, you have to have a better answer. You need to find what will work for you, what you can maintain in the long run, and what makes you feel good about yourself. Thank you, i guess. When we come back, we have a treat for our bra zplaza. At 8 26, breaking news that we are following is coming out of walnut creek this morning where officers are on the hunt for two burglars who hit the tiffanys Jewelry Store this morning. Nbc bay areas bob redell live at the scene and he joins us live with the latest. Bob . Reporter good morning to you, laura. It is clear that these robbers, now four robbers they are looking for, clearly underestimated the strength of tiffanys security. Given what they went to get through inside, didnt make out with much. 5 45 they rammed the back of this stolen pickup into the tiffanys at north main and mount diablo boulevard. They went inside. You can see where they tried to smash the glass cases containing the jewelry. Most are shattered but doesnt get through. Police tell us they did get through one case, they were able to get a small amount of jewelry but nowhere near as much as they thought they were going to take. They did have a blue plastic storage bin they abandoneded on the site. The thought is they thought they might be filling that up and taking off. Again, a small amount of jewelry. They are looking for four men in hoodie who took off at 5 45 this morning in ma what is described as white chevy blazer, only in the store for two minutes. Police say they were here one minute later. Bob redell, nbc bay area news. Thanks for the latest. Another local news update in half an hour. Triple again. Do you see the 10 back in points, plus another 10 , plus Free Shipping . Yeah.

I dont think i am, i think im right on the money. You have seen these everywhere, colorful rubber band bracelets. They are called rainbow looms. Coming zoom, rubber band bra bracelets, made on a loom. And a design not by the toy industry, but by a mid western family who built a business out of their basement. This started as a weekend project with my daughter, and they said dad, this is so cool. The family posted howto videos online. I would put rubber bands in the bags. They had so many orders to fill, they had to install an elevator to get the boxes up to their garage. Its mind blowing. When michaels stocked them nationwide, 20 stores sold out immediately. A rare overnight sensation. Rainbow looms have had videos pop up all over the state. Kids are making bris lets for their friends and parents. And old skill with a modern twist. Turning a simple rubber band into all of the rage. They told this week, and now the kids are going back to school and they can wear and trade them with classmates. You love this, dont you . Yes. Why . Its fun, and there are so many colors, and portable, and fun to make. Is it hard to learn . It looks complicated . Well, what you do is you place them like that, and you have these you take your hook, and you flip it, and you hook it up like that. And then when youre ready, you take it off so then its like that, and you place ablip on it. You can make neck laces and bracelets. Is it a boy and girl thing or a girl thing . I think its both. Will you make me a hammock, that would be cool. And also rainbow underwear. 11 years old. Im sorry that was too far. Coming up next, a slice of margaritaville in concert.

Were just showing him playing. The concert is going on out there. There you go. Good thursday morning, august 15th, 2013, jimmy is still rocking the plaza. He is very fitting, he is doing this song for our fourth hour, too drunk to karaoke. On the list of people who have life figured out, jimmy buffet is very high. Shorts and no shoes, flies around the country. You know who else . His band members. They have a good life following him around everywhere he goes. Thats who i want to be. He is awesome. This is coming up later. We have a lot of clutter going on. You know what is amazing is what mika did yesterday on morning joe. One of my cohosts across the street tweeted this last night, her weight. She showed her standing at home on her scale. She tweeted my weight, one year ago today, i feel good about this number. About 136 pounds. Her book is called obsessed. She feels good about 136, fantastic. She got a lot of followers and replies. It doesnt surprise me one bit. She has never been shy. She is not a shrinking violet. She doesnt do the 29th birthday again. You have to problem admitting your weight, but for women, its one of those things that is a carefully guarded secret. What is worse, weight or age . Weight. A lot of women are like im between certain sizes. They never feel theyre at the size or weight they want to be. I think a lot of people it is hard. Youre not going to get it out of me . Whyouldnt you. I dont think that thats a good answer. Should we turn this into a state fair and guess the weight. Lets not. Willy, pick her up, see what you think. Thats the problem, i would bench press natalie. Look, some people are very happy to say what they weigh, and i think others just i dont want young girls to be i have never seen you like this. I dont want young girls to be obsessed with your weight either. You dont obsess about it if you reveal it, you just say what it is, and then its done. Theres no obsession. Uhhuh, okay. Theyre going for something here. Theyre not going to break. Mika did it, i dont want to its not like youre copying her. Its her thing, would you publicly reveal your weight . We asked our viewers on a poll. So go ahead and weigh in on our poll. Get it, weigh in. So good. That is kind of the point of her book, is to be open and hoppest about your body. Thats your first step in letting it go. Do you really want to know . No. I mean if you say its fine, i dont care, i actually really dont care. You dont care. Strong is the new skinny according to the new york post. Its true. I think that is the message we should be sending girls. Not about weight, its about being strong, healthy, and taking on the world. Weight means nothing. If you lifted a 50 pound weight, how much would you weigh. The number on the scale means nothing, as long as youre healthiy. If thats the case than say it. Okay, lets leave natalie alone. Lets move on to the kitchen. The new new product, it will help a food craving. It has a timed lock. If you have food in your home you cant resist, you put it inside here. So say this is my weakness with the cookies, you put the cookies in there thats how Martha Stewart does it. So you put them in here, you lock it, and then you can decide how long you want to lock it. So you turn the dial. I put three hours. Okay, now i cant touch that for three hours.

Okay, so a couple of days ago, natalie shocked america when she said her sister tricked her into drinking a bodily fluid, saying it was lemonade. Here to weigh in is jennifer hartstein. We want to get started with willie, you told us yesterday how much you tortured your little sister libby making her watch scary movies. Friday the 13th when she was five. I was less about getting beat up, it was more like long lasting trauma and torture. I was about five and he was ten, he made me watch friday the 13th where jason murders people in the woods, disgusting and horrible. I went to bed that night, i hear a little knock at the window. To this day, it gives me chills. I thought it was over, jason was outside my room, i was done for. To this day, if i see a trailer or a smallest clip of a chase scream, i scream outloud i have never felt to terrible. Have you kicked into for therapy. There is Family Therapy going on. How common is that. Here you have a brother with his sister, is that a common theme among siblings . It is, but with siblings of different sexes there is an issue. Youre essentially like only children in your house. There is a difference between you were probably never in school at the same time, but there is a torture piece. And there is a problem torture. It does build our belief in the world later. Parents need to step in you need to send her a card. This was an isolated incident, i was otherwise loving and caring. Should we ask her about that . I hope george and lucy have a better relationship. Okay, lets move on now to al, turns out your brother and sister have very different memories of growing up with young al roker. Ut oh. Just because of the simple fact of the age difference that we have is 16 years apart, for god sakes, he potty trained me. So i think of him as my big brother, and a second dad. Not sibling rivalry, he was a trickster. He comes into my room and wants to interview me, ask me a series of wonderful questions, i was very animated, yes, no, absolutely not, of course, yay. He comes back a couple days later, he spliced everything differently. Nothing was the same. Do you curse . Absolutely. Do you listen to mom and dad . Never. Practicing your interviewing skills on your sister. But i think on the whole, it balances out. It is all about the end result, right . I think you have here a great example of when youre closer in age, youre more friends. Where as 16 years difference, youre going to be more like a parental figure. Its a different quality of relationship. And a big family brings big dynamic. Six kids and we know there is new research that says the more siblings, the better you are prepared for other relationships in your life. And natalie. Oh boy. Okay. Natalie, i love you dearly, but you have to understand where i was coming from as a child and why i felt a need to put you in your place. After you were born i lost all of my privacy. I was forced to share a room with you. If we fought, i was always the one to get in trouble because you were smaller and younger regardless of who started the fight. Anyway, i hope i did not traumatize you too much. I think you turned out okay, so i will forgive you for bringing National Attention to my tactics of getting even with you when i was 10 years old. The oldest and the middle child. And a middle child with the same sex older sibling. Thats a lot more rivalry, fighting for attention, and you become a mediator. Whats the message for parents . Were learning how to work out relationships. There will be fighting and that stuff, but when it becomes really problematic that one child is saying this is happening too much, im scared of my sibling, parents really need to pay attention. You need to really let them figure out how to work it out because they will need it later in life. Your sister patricia sent along a little gift because she could not be here.

Late last night, Hayward Police showed up to an apartment complex on tennyson road. The girl on the 911 call told police her father had a knife and was threatening to kill her mother. When officers got to the apartment they ordered the man to drop the weapon but he reportedly refused and police say he lunged at officers with that knife. Thats when one officer fired, shooting the suspect at least once. He died at the hospital.

They reached out on our website and the social media community, and we found several busy moms that created their own community. Welcome back. Hello, my friends. Were going to talk about candy and bridal gowns. I have a very big announcement. We have a newest edition to the family here. Congratulations. Now a new baby to join the family. Congratulations. Were so excited. So poa and jagger get a new buddy. Yes, and i wanted to share it here first so you hear it live from me. Youre part of our family, we appreciate it. Im already, you know, from having a couple others, my body immediately went like this right away. All right, lets turn to our new mompeneurs. A single mother of three began making candy in her kitchen shortly after her first baby was born. She started making salty caramels and then marshmellows. 14 years later, she now sells to 100 Stores Across the country and also opened her own cafe called little flower. And Christine Moore is here. You started with just donating to schools, is that how you got the word out . I believe in donating to local schools, its like free advertising. Moms talk about it and its a great way to get your business out on the forefront. So how long until you turned a profit . We were pretty quickly. We had some wholesale accounts right away. The cafe i hoped about seven years later. Im a baker by trade, not a candy maker, and the cafe is busy and we feed people every day. Youre a single mom, three kids, running a bakery and cafe, how are you managing all of that. I would take them to the office and they would sleep and it was 3 00 in the morning. But you just get up early and go to bed late like any other mom. What advice do you give to other moms or dads at home that want to start that company from their kitchen or living room. I think the number one key to anything like this is passion. You have to be passionate about it and you can never give up. You have to push through the hard times. There is sleepless nights. Youll be working for money for a long time, theres no quick remedy, but you can never give up on your dream. Maybe your kids feel like part of the business too. They used to go with me and deliver candy theyre part of everything. They could go to jones on third, and they would get treats, it was fun. Our next mom peneur joins us next, look at her story. She worked as a wedding planner and watched in brides struggle to find a sample dress over the size ten. So she opened a store to cater to brides size 12 to 22. And she joins us. Clearly pregnant as well. So so excited i can touch my belly now, i have been hiding it for so long. There was a huge need. Were women, we come in awe different shapes and sizes. And out there in the regular bridal stores, there just isnt anything for brides that are size 12 and over. I really wanted to cater to that and that need for the side 12 and up woman. How do you find a balance between it all, juggling it all . Its a challenge. You take it day by day, and priority for me is always my family. So at the end of the day if i dont get work done, thats okay. Its all about family and business comes second. When you find a need and you feel like you can do it, and you do. Great job. Great job to our ladies and mompeneurs. Coming up next, your life is about to exponetially better. Whatcha got there, duke . Jay and duke talking action figures. My idea. Love it lets see what i say.

Good to see you guys. There is a lot of stuff out there, a lot of burgers, and were back to the basics with the simplicity of a burger. Sourcing out your meat, get the 8020, that means 20 fat. You can build a double patty or keep it simple. Also, the bun to meet ratio is very important. So we have sirloin and brisket. When we start using salt and mix it in our meat, salt cures. So season is right before. It looks like a small burger to me. Were going to season it right as it goes on the flat top. How hot should it be. Nice and hot. Listen, when you do this, youre talking about more salt than you normally would, it brings out that beefy flavor. We have a couple working right here. The other key to this is were going to seer and get crusts. You like cast iron. Yeah, im all about cooking outside too. If were talking about bunning, caramelization, and look at the bun to burger ratio, well have a little shrinkage there. There is so many theories about flipping, i like to flip once.

From nbc news, this is today with Kathie Lee Gifford and hoda kotb live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. Hi. Its thirsty thursday, august 15th. The celebration is growing. But how can we have National Relaxation day today when theres so much crud all over the place. Look it is one day until your birthday. Its too much we want to take a look at your countdown calendar. Things are droopy. Whats sad is its so true. Its so true. All right. So this is interesting because one of our producers, amanda avery, decided to take a look at the changing faces of 60 on television. And this is interesting. So she went through and was looking at some old sitcoms and stuff. She found grandma esther from the waltons. Take a look at her. Ellen corby. Ed. She was only 60 when the pilot was shot. She needs her roots done. Compare her to 62yearold kirstie alley. See what getting your roots done does for you . How about irene ryan. She played granny. I loved her. Do you know how old she was . 50something . 60. She was 60. She doesnt have dr. Patricia wexler. Compare her to Bernadette Peters at 60 and felicia rashad. 65. They are five years older than her. And i dont know about felicia, but i know bernadette will not go in the sun. And she never has. Never does. And shes got some of the most gorgeous skin. How about aunt bea from andy griffith. Aunt bea, 58. Oh, my gosh. 58 years old. Compare her to 59yearold christine brinkley. Well, nobody looks like christie brinkley. Lets just look at that. That is unbelievable when you think theres a one age difference and you try to pick who is older. There are things available to women today. There are options available that were not available back then. So whats fascinating to me is look at somebody like a sofia lauren who had nothing done and still looks gorgeous. Not everybody can say such a thing. Bea arthur, betty white and Estelle Getty were between 62 and 63. Rue mcclanahan. Who was grandma, the mother of the bea arthur character. Estelle getty. 51 was the young nest the bunch. Those were all golden girls. Look at meryl streep who is 64. I dont think meryl has done anything either. She looks so radiant and beautiful but doesnt look unnatural. Youre right. I think shes just very at home in her own skin. And i think shes very smart to realize she wants to be shes an actress.
