Richard, good morning to you. Reporter good morning, this seemed to be a very candid interview, the president blamed the former u. S. Backed Iraqi Government for allowing isis to flourish and said american intelligence didnt fully appreciate the threat. The u. S. Military reportedly launched more air strikes overnight, after pounding isis in syria over the weekend targeting the militants, their Oil Facilities and armored vehicles. But isis isnt in retreat in syria. Its fighters are advancing on cities close to the turkish border. And in iraq, the militants are again reportedly on the edge of baghdad. On sunday president obama told 60 minutes u. S. Intelligence failed to see it coming. Well, i think our head of the intelligence community, jim clapper, acknowledged that they underestimated what had been taking place in syria. He didnt say that just say that we underestimated isil. He said we overestimated the ability and the will of our allies, the iraqi army, to fight. Thats true. Thats absolutely true. Its a major intelligence failure. Islamic radicals expanding in syria and iraq for two years. They bragged about their growing strength on line, 14 journalists often reported that foreign fighters were streaming into syria. We interviewed them as they went in. The rise of extremism in syria and iraq was no secret, now the president said america is leading the fight against the radicals. America leads. We are the indispensable nation, we have capacity no one else has, our military is the best in the history of the world. And when trouble comes up anywhere in the world, they dont call beijing, they dont call moscow, they call us. Reporter so the u. S. Is now leading an International Coalition against isis, and likely will be for years. Matt. Rich arld engle, those comments making headlines and they are going to continue. There will be more fallout over the coming days. Also now to the medical mystery in colorado where a group of children is showing poliolike symptoms including paralysis. The question, could those symptoms be linked to the dangerous Virus Outbreak that has spread from ten states three weeks ago to now 40 and washington, d. C. Hally jackson is in colorado. Good morning. Reporter good morning. The cdc says its concerned about what its calling this cluster of kids so many children showing these same symptoms at the same time and in the same place. Nine children have been treated at this hospital for a week or even paralyzed arms or leg, and were learning there may be a tenth child showing the same symptoms at a different colorado hospital. At this denver play ground the kids all smiles, some parents on edge. It actually terrifies me having three kids and one who has severe asthma. A common cold is no longer a common cold. Reporter nearby the hospital where doctors say nine children showed symptoms similar to polio. At least four of those kids tested positive for enterovirus 68, a rare strain of a common virus that acts like a bad cold and can make it hard to breathe. This year enterovirus 68 has been confirmed in 277 people, mostly children. Across 40 states, plus d. C. It is a bit of a mystery right now but like any other mystery, we have some clues. Reporter this doctor says the nine children in colorado are up to date on polio vaccinations, still they are trying to figure out if there is some link to enter ro virus 68 a similar cluster of cases hit california in 2012. Thats when this child had trouble breathing before his left leg stopped working. He was never tested for the enterovirus but diagnosed with poliolike syndrome. It was the hardest thing that i think i heard. Erin understands what the families are going through. My whole purpose is to let these families know theres hope. Reporter hope this medical mystery may be solved soon. The cdc wants doctors now across the country to report seeing any similar clusters of kids dealing with these symptoms, muscle weakness, pa ralties. Three children are stilling treated at this hospital. So far no deaths have been linked but the agency is doing tests after a toddler in new jersey died after a respiratory illness.

New questions about the secret service and its ability to protect the president. A searing report in the Washington Post claims the agency grossly mishandled a shooting that occurred at the white house in 2011. Nbcs Kristen Welker has more on that. Dp good morning. Reporter good morning. The president and first lady were infuriated with the way the secret service handled that shooting and this comes as the agency is already investigating an unprecedented secure breach earlier this month when a man jumped over the fence of the white house with a knife and entered the unlocked front door. With the secret service under scrutiny for this fence jumping intruder new revelations about gun shots fired into the executive mansion three years ago. This is where investigators believe the shots came from. Reporter the Washington Post reports back in november of 2011, Oscar Hernandez fired a semiautomatic rifle at the white house while parked a quarter mile away. Initially there was confusion. A supervisor that night on duty calls out stand down, disregard, its just a construction noise. Reporter it took four days for the agency to realize the white house had been hit seven times. The discovery came only after a house keeper found broken glass on the truman balcony. There appears to be a bullet lodged in a window sill and certainly a bullet hole in one of the Central Glass windows. That is, again, right outside the familys living room. Reporter sasha was home at the time with her grandmother. The president and first lady were traveling and didnt find out for several days. It was an usher who told the first lady assuming she already knew. Aides have described the president and she as both fuming. Reporter a secret Service Official says an investigation was launched immediately, other Law Enforcement agencies were notified. Hernandez was arrested and is now serving time in jail. I know the secret service is on top of this and will take every step to correct problems. Reporter but on capitol hill concern. I got serious questions about the leadership and protocol of the secret service. They have had far too many problems. This is not something that is acceptable. Reporter secret Service Director Julia Pearson will answer some of the tough questions when she testifies before a Congressional Committee on capitol hill tomorrow. The secret service says it has enhanced security and surveillance after both the 2011 shooting and again after the recent security breach. One more point that shooter hernandez is serving 25 years on terrorism and weaponsrelated offenses. Matt. All right. Thank you very much. A former secret Service Agent who served on president obamas personal detail, she was assigned to the white house residence on the day of the shooting. Evi, nice to see you. Good morning. You did not personally hear the shots. Were you aware a Major Incident occurred . No. I didnt have any personal experience on that day with the incident as we rotate shifts and whatnot. There was that delay in which the shots were found and i think thats really what the consensus here is that this concern is like why does it take a significant amount of time to find this out. When you think about what went on, five secret Service Officers on the white house grounds thought they heard gun shots. People actually witnessed the gunman shooting in the direction of the white house. A woman in a taxi tweeted about it. A firearm and nine shell casings found that same night in a crashed car and two secret Service Agents were on the scene of that crash. Yet it was a house keeper, four days later, who sounds the alarm. How does that happen . Complacency. You think about it day after day youre there, nothing ever happens. And then also the idea of the shooting that took place almost to the complete opposite side, its on constitution avenue. And its the inability to connect those dots. In addition to that its also failure in the chain of command. When you have supervisors not really listening to the people underneath saying this is what i saw. Complacency . Im surprised to hear you say this. These people are protecting the white house and the first family. It means when you get used to nothing ever happening typically, when something does happen sometimes you fail to connect those dots. When you are being there and theres not an instance thats happening. A lot of that job is waiting for the threat to come. And so you have that combined with the fact that these shots were taken at a significant distance as well. When you add this to the situation with the prostitutes in colombia and the guy last week or earlier who gets to the front door with a knife, what needs to change . How do you accommodate for that complacency . Its a lot more than just that. I think at the end of the day its the management style. You see event after event after event, this is where you have to stop investigating you have to investigate the incident but look inward and say what are we doing as a whole. That starts where, with leadership, management. You have to see where are we failing, why are people failing. Need to change . The leadership needs i think to broaden its mind, bring in new perspectives, its an agency thats quite old and kind of done its thing for a significant amount of time and its worked up until now. This is when you have to change with the times to be progressive, to prevent stuff like this from happening. Thanks for your perspective. Appreciate it. Lets go over to tamron. Thank you very much. For stargazers venice is the place to be. Hollywoods most eligible bachelor George Clooney had so much fun at his wedding he did it again this morning. Keir simmons is live in venice. Good morning. Reporter good morning. The folks around the world thought they would never hear mr. And mrs. Clooney again, but hes done it.

Reporter reports say the wedding at a sevenstar Hotel Included Classical Music from a 12piece orchestra followed by a fivecourse meal of lobster and wild mushrooms. Despite the excitement. We enjoyed seeing the paparazzi as much as anything. Its claimed that the couple requested no cameras for the exchange of vows, official pictures will apparently appear in a magazine for a large donation to charity. Capturing the moment this eternal bachelor said i do. She of course is an accomplished lawyer but she will never have experience attention like this in a courtroom. She will need all of that legal poise to deal with it in her life ahead. Meanwhile, women around the world will be crying tears that could flood the canals of venice.

I was taking warfarin, but wondered if i kept digging, could i come up with Something Better. My doctor told me about eliquis. For three Important Reasons. One, in a clinical trial, eliquis was proven to reduce the risk of stroke better than warfarin. Two, eliquis had less major bleeding than warfarin. And three, unlike warfarin, theres no routine blood testing. Dont stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Those three Important Reasons are why eliquis is a better find for me. Ask your doctor today if eliquis is right for you. Dove invited women to a makeover hi maamifference.

She also disputes a finding that racetrack lighting was poor at the time of the accident. University of Michigan Football coach brady hoke is in the hot seat this morning, not only for the teams poor performance on the field, but also for the handling of his quarterback who was clearly shaken up in a game against minnesota on saturday after a blow to the head. In the fourth quarter, shane morris took a vicious hit that clearly dazed him. Morris was then allowed to stay in for the next play. He came out for one play but then went right back in. Asked about it after the game, coach hoke said, i dont know if he had a concussion or not. I dont know that. Shanes a pretty competitive, tough kid.

See if Something Like this has ever happened in your house. This is a great dane, dinky or Something Like that. What . Yeah, on the left. Is he growling and throwing a fit because his owner is showing affection to another dog. Then he flops down on the couch, just like a spoiled toddler. A new study sos that dog is not alone. Scientists are confirming dogs do get jealous, just like in that video. Researchers at uc san diego say canines act out when their owners lavish attention on other dogs. Matt, al and carson, are you huggers . Yeah. Hug it out . The paper says that times have changed and men have grown more comfortable going in for the big hug. Some examples, popes benedict and francis, president obama and clinton and plenty of ball players love to hug. It doesnt always end well. Remember this embrace . Little awkward positioning between john kerry and leonardo dicaprio. And the most awkward hug in white house history. That one is a little too high. You dont want it too low. You watch ball players. They have a quick pop. Shoulder pop. Handshake, bring it in. I hug my dad and kissed my dad every day. Yeah. Thats awesome. The other story from the times asks a question we now find ourselves asking all the time. When you see something happening before your eyes do you live in the moment and take it in or do you do one of these things and record the moment to watch and enjoy it maybe later . Our generation is still trying to capture in our hearts. You see the younger people, boy they watch it through their phone. I feel like you miss the moment. The moment is happening. Look, there. Especially something thats on tv already. More and more people are starting to try to the reverse. Live in the moment . You want to live in the moment. I didnt see that this weekend. We were at the Global Citizens festival. Thats the image of the iphones capturing the moment. Theyre not looking at beyonce, a surprise guest. Theyre all in the air with their phones. Sign of the times. Good news for you, matt. Whats that . The worlds most famous swimsuit. You can actually own it, since youve already tried the outfit. Baywatch outfit that Pamela Anderson wore, made worldwide famous. The suit is said to be in very good condition, to fine condition and is expected to fetch at least 4,000 next month. I thought you already owned that. It comes with a flotation device. Two flotations. And the one that i wore for halloween will be put up for auction as well. Should get 25, 30. Yes. Please do this. Who wore it better . More than 4,000. I would think so. So will yours. Well see. That is whats trending today. Were back with a special mystery gues all right. Carson really took us by surprise with our guess the guest contest. Sav savannah, mike and baby vale. Happy to spend more time with you. She is the best baby ever, i whisper, just in case. Were just going to spend the night here. Has she been having a tough time . No, shes a good sleeper but shes a newborn, up every couple of hours. You know, just like mike. He fusses, i have to put him down. Same thing. Im trying to see who she resembles more. When she was first born, she was mikes twin. I dont know. The cheeks might be a little guthrie trait, but i dont know. She looks like vale. She looks like herself. What do you think . I think shes a perfect combination. I kind of see you from the eyes up and i see mike from the nose and cheeks down. The amazement of all this, babies dont come with instruction manuals. No. I wish they did. How has it been, learning to be a mom . Exhilarating, thrilling, and terrifying sometimes but terrifying because i love her so much. I couldnt love anything more. And i hold her life in my hands and that is so scary sometimes. But, you know, we just have the best time. Shes such a sweet baby. I cant get over she amazes me every day. Five second rule. She definitely knows what she wants and doesnt want. Five second rule . I dont know if this count as clean. Hes an experienced dad. Im going to get a ton of tweets. Shes wearing the mitts because shes a germaphobe like me . No, she has nails and im terrified to do it. I would rather cut off our own fingers. Or defuse a live bomb. I file them and keep the mittens on. Has she managed to decompress and avoid staying wrapped up in work . Yeah, yeah. She definitely found a way to check out and we have plenty to focus on here. Its been really great. Its been great having this time together. Its funny. Everybody says youve been off for a while and how is it sleeping in. Thats not really an issue, is it . No, no, sleeping in, we doesnt do. Weve become avid viewers of the show. Sometimes we do sleep in past the 7 00 hour. If we get a chance, we do. Thats all right. Tell everybody the story about the first time you took her out in the stroller and went far away from him . Mike went back to work. It was just me and vale. Were going to go on a walk. I fed her. Thought everything is great. I got about two miles from home. She started screaming. There was nothing i could do. People on the street people are looking. The nannies around are like, she needs to eat and im like, i know but not here. I thought about Breast Feeding her right there. I thought i better keep going. Anyway, we didnt go out for another week after that. So good to see you guys and see her again. When are you coming back to work . November 3rd. What do you think . Am i welcome . Absolutely. Sooner. Come back sooner, too, would be fine. November 3rd. Ill see you in another tfew we all right. Were back with oscar winner Ben Affleck Starring in gone girl, one of the most highly anticipated movies of the year. I dont see you sitting quietly. Oh, him . Ironic hipster. So self aware i prefer men who are funny. What type are you . Salt of the earth. Cute. Native new yorker. Whats your name . Amy. Hey, ben, welcome back. Nice to see you. Thank you. It freaks people out, the wedding this weekend, were you on the invitation list . Here i am, sadly. Some of us have to work. It sounded like it went very well. Did matt damon send you pictures and say youre not going to believe this . It sounded wonderful. Youre obviously busy, as you mentioned, promoting a movie. This is hotly anticipated. You actually were set to direct another project and david pincher called you about this and you dropped everything. I was supposed to direct a movie which i will end up directing in july next year. I was prepping, going, and david called me. One of the directors ive always admired from fight club and on and on. I love the book. I thought this is a really sharp, tough book. Obviously it was very popular. I thought i could do that later. Im not going to get a chance to do this later. Im glad you mentioned the book. Clearly, some people watching have read the book. They understand whats happening here. But there are a lot of people i really dont want to blow anything. What are my nofly zones here . Its tricky. Theres a lot of twists and turns. Plotwise theres a lot of kind of engine. At the root of it, though, as men and women when were getting into relationships we try to show one another just kind of our best side and once you get into a relationship the masks come off. You find out who the person really is. Its about a husband and a wife. Right. Its about choices. The husbands wife disappears and the husband becomes a suspect, little scott peterson. This movie will do for the institution of marriage what an outbreak of a stomach virus will do for a cruise ship industry. Is that fair . Yes. Its a love story. Exactly. It is dark. But the thing about it, its provocative, asks honest questions. The book was read by so many women. Obviously, its appealing to that demographic as well. Its not like hostile to the institution of marriage. It just asks searingly honest questions. Its a little hostile. All right. To the institution of the media. It is. Okay. Youre laughing. Fair depiction . A certain area of the media. Not media broadly. Its not you guys, the new york times. Its about that stripe of media thats sort of the cable, 24hour, who killed somebody today kind of hostile. Scott peterson or lacey peterson, amanda knox, whatever horrible thing happens, theres somebody sanctimonious, running a news show every day. That narrow strip of the media over the course of your career, did you enjoy poking them in their eye . I can identify with the idea of looking at myself through the prism of some media, tabloid, Television Show and not recognizing myself at all. Like how did they put this on there . I or my wife havent been accused of killing somebody. I havent quite graduate to the amanda knox level. Some people in the media should take away from this is wait until the facts are in. Dont jump to conclusions. Theres sort of a race to be first. And the internet has made that worse. Exactly. You want viewers and somebody with new news is news. Then you have the Richard Jewel type situations and so on. Theres another movie youre working on, the batman movie. What was it like to put the suit on for the first time . Zach snyder, the director, working with the writer from argo. They did it in a new and interesting way. Can you give me an idea of how they did that . I could but Warner Brothers would crash through the wall and pull me out on a grappling. The movie is out in two years. Two years . March 2016, yeah. Oh, my gosh. What was your reaction to the online criticism . People went and said ben affleck should not be batman. I remember when they said that about daniel craig and 007. He became one of the best bonds ever. We have these relationships with its part of not to the same extent but gone girl, fgs fift fifty shades of grey, people have attachments to. Fans have imagined it. They get really into it. Theyre certainly entitled to those feelings, you know. The thing about this for me, this is the movie, more than any other movies combined, people come up to me and are so excited. To have all this attention, some of it is positive, some of it is negative. You make the movie and it works or it doesnt. I always want to look at people who fire off the criticism and say wait till you see one second of footage. Give the guy i think youre going to be great in it. Thank you very much. Real quickly and, im sorry, Robin Williams is someone i think you said Something Like he made my dreams come true. His passing had to impact you deeply. Its a testament to how many people love robin, what a great guy he was. People pass but you dont often see that kind of outpouring that you saw around robins death. For me and for matt, it was about, they werent going to make Goodwill Hunting without a star. He trusted us, took a shot at two nobodies and they made the movie good morning, it is 8 26 on your monday. Im sam brock. California has adopted new legislation designed to prevent Sexual Assaults on college campuses. Governor jerry brown signed a bill that makes california the first state in the country to define when yes means yes. That challenges the notion that victims of Sexual Assault must have resisted assault to actually have valid complaints. The bill says in order for colleges to receive student aid money, they must implement the affirmative consent standard they are now pushing forward. Okay. Monday morning, the grind is on your commute if youre getting ready to go to work. What hot spots are you monitoring now . Its suddenly becoming slow. A little slower than you might expect for this monday as we look out toward the northbound 101 in san jose. You see things bog down a bit. Look at your map overall, and your slow drive in the northbound routes. Were looking at a slow drive all throughout the south bay, starting to lighten up a little bit. May be less folks in the south bay commute. In the east bay, 880 is jammed in both directions. Jammed in your westbound direction. Red continues for the trivalley as you recover for 580 and 680 and fog on the north side of the golden gate. We are jamming but not in the dance sort of way. Thank you for joining us.

What about 78 degrees here in the south bay . Heres the deal, temperatures warming across the board. Jumping to 86 degrees between tuesday and wednesday and the 90s for the end of the week. And thats your latest weather. Tamron . Thank you so much, al. Now to todays book club. A new selection from an inspiring young women. Today correspondent Jenna Bush Hager is here this morning. Im really excited about this one. The new Book Club Pick is positive. A first nonfiction book. Its a very personal memoir by a remarkable young woman who is breaking stereotypes and fighting against bullying. Her name is paige rawl. Just wait until you hear her story. Yes paige rawl lives life to the fullest. All the good things you have and all the positive people, theres nothing you cant achieve. Reporter at 20, shes like many young women, carefully navigating the post teen road that winds unpredictably into adulthood but paige is on another journey, too. One that impacts every turn. People out there have this stigma against hiv. Thats why im sharing my story. Reporter born hiv positive, she contracted the disease at birth from her own mother, who wasnt aware she was infected by her late husband. Despite being hiv positive, paiges childhood was largely idyllic. However, she and her mom kept her disease a secret until one day she confided in her best friend. You told a friend in confidence that you were living with hiv. She told me something personal about her family and i was like, okay, this is my best friend. Like we tell each other secrets. Reporter within hours, her secret spread and the relentless bullying began. Her whole life crumbled around her. When all that have bullying was going on, talk to me specifically about what your every day was like. I had a note left on my locker one day during middle school say iing no at our schoo. They dont want me there just because im hiv positive. Reporter the tormenting took a toll. It got so bad at age 15 she attempted suicide. After seeking treatment and changing schools, eventually paige found a whole new perspective and a new mission. I was like, okay. This is what i need to do to help other people. Reporter its a story she shares in her new memoir positive. Paige considers ryan white her biggest inspiration. Its been nearly 25 years since he died from aidsrelated complications. He fought for the right for people who are hiv positive to go to school and im trying to fight for people to be treated right in sool. I think paige is one of the bravest people ive ever known. Reporter dr. Elaine cox is a pediatric specialist and paiges longtime doctor. Paige sets the bar for what we need to be doing in hiv education. Reporter paige is whats called undetectible. Undetectible is the goal we strive for in every hiv patient in treatment. When we draw your blood, you cannot detect any virus circulating the body. People think that means youre cured. Unfortunately we dont have a cure for hiv and aids at this time. Reporter while much progress has been made in the three decades since the virus first struck, the numbers still remain significant, roughly 50,000 people in the u. S. Contract hiv each year and about one in six still dont even know they have hiv because they havent been tested. But speakby speaking out publicly, paige hopes she can play a part in making a difference. I just want to be that person that you guys look at and realize hiv does not define who i am. I dont let it live my every day life and im a normal teenager, just like you guys. Thank you. I have a present for you. Reporter her mom, sandy, beams at every turn. Im proud at everything that shes doing to help others. Reporter the book is titled positive, which is obviously your hiv status. But it seems like thats a symbol for the way you live your life. Yeah. I need to make this difference for others who are out there who are hiv positive or who are impacted by the disease. If this book saves just one life, then everything i went through will all be worth it. Paige is now in college, studying biology and hopes she can work on a treatment and a cure for hiv. Shes also an advocate, who fights against bullying. And although she wrote this book for teens, i have to say, guys, i read it. I think its important for High School Students and College Students to read but also parents. It talks about ending this stigma. And shes an amazing, amazing girl. I agree with the woman in the piece who said shes awfully bra brave. She sure is. Thank you, jenna. We want you to know were all trying to stay strong and positive around here and we want you to join the conversation. Send us a picture or message using the positive project. You can be part of our book club by heading to today. Com. Let us know your positive messages with that hash tag. Do you know whats positive .

Mix up your cheeses but the pecorino works beautifully with the Brussel Sprouts and sweet onions. Darling you have the next bit. I do. If you dont like Brussel Sprouts is there another vegetable you could substitute . Absolutely, any venggies you want. People are getting into their greens these days. Once they hated, instead of boiling the hell out of it, theyre learning how to cook it right. Healthy tortillas. Exactly. This case quesedilla. Its lovely, matt. Im just going to load up here. Extra flavor. What i like to do is just marble some chili sauce through some lovely sour cream or yogurt to give it nice heat and i give it a nice fire and refreshment all in one. Finish it with a little coriander here. Thats course number one. Weve liquidized, matt, some flavors here. Peanuts, scallions, lime, chile, ginger, paprika, tumeric here. Look at the color of that. Thats the flavor penetration right there. We grill it over here. We want to get that char on. If you can do it on a barbecue, you know thats where that flavor comes from. On the stove top .

Nice people on our plaza. Im willie along with al, natalie and tamron and look who, baby vale. She is such a good baby. You know what, she is. I agree. We love her. Were going to keep her. Wow turn it is on for us, though, right . Exactly. Shes been wonderful all morning. Weve been hooping and hollering. Theres lights and ben affleck. She didnt even wake up for ben affleck. I got a picture with him, though. Ill tweet it later. I was like, my baby really needs a picture with you. New excuse. Exactly. Its not me. Its vale. Have she just has to have it. I got some time to spend some v time with vale, which is great. She pulled a knife on you. We went up to mike and savannahs house. Mike and i were working in the kitchen. Working. Cooking or repairing . No, we were cooking. Work. Prep work. Even though dinner was over. Right. The ladies were in the dining room and ill be darned if i didnt get a big serrated kitchen knife and missed my target and took it across the hand like that. What was the target . Lemon. Lime. The target with his a bottle of bourbon. What . Fact. I dont remember it that way. You guys dont remember anything. Please tell us shes off the topic point. Mommy brain. We had a lovely, lovely dinner. Christine and i were chatting after dinner. The guys went to go have an afterdinner cocktail. Mike was struggling with the bottle. Willie confidently said hand me that thing. They disappeared. 15 minutes past. You know when they say kids are quiet something bad is happening . They come in, is he holding his hand, big towel, blood. Its a gush er and he says, girls, were going to urgent care. And willie had to get seven stitches. What . Mike drove him there . Thats me getting sewn up. Look at you. Its a long story. You had this trick in college . Its a long story, trying to get the wax off. Best part of the story, it ties into vale. Mike had familiarized themselves so well with the route to the hospital in case baby vale came. He was like, i got this. He throws on shoes, a hat and was like, were good. I was like, i dont know where it is. He said trust me. We were there in nine minutes. I was in, getting my hand sewn up in 30 minutes. The bromance continues. You were with your legs up in the stirrup trying to prepare all i heard was, willie, this is why we drill. This is why we drill. Really . My gosh can we get back to vale . Vale is rocking. She has burberry on. So fancy. I can assure you shes in her normal little onesies the rest of the time. You dolled it up. This is a gift somebody gave us and thought it was so cute on her. How fun is it dolling up a girl . Its so fun and natalie sends us a present practically every week. I never had a girl. Im living vicariously through savannah. This is so cute. Another one from auntie natalie. This gave her an excuse to break her shopping its for baby vale. I have a thank you card writing station just for natalie. Another one for natalie. Combine it. Cute little thank you video over the weekend from baby vale. I was like, this is the best thank you card ever. You were telling us one of the things you had a hard time with, her nails. A lot of moms can relate. What is the issue here . She has these little razor sharp nails and im terrified to cut them. They have baby clippers but theyre dangerous . So tiny. So tiny. They even come with a magnifying glass but im still uh, i cant do it even the pediatricians wont do it for you. I asked my doctor, what do i do . I thought she would be like oh, dont worry or, bring her by. Ill cut them for you. Shes like, yeah, those are one of the main accidents we have with newborns. Nails. Great. Thanks. Shes been in mittens . Every once in a while we take them off and let her have supervised freedom. Theyre little talons. Theyre sharp. Old enough for the manicurist around 5 or 6. Mani pedi . I file them lamely but i keep those mittens on for now. Hand injury aside, they have such a nice house, they are sch a good mother and father. I had such a nice time until i sawed my finger off. It was it the thing that they do with the sword and i wish i could say that. He had a reaction that a a little boy would have. He did it. He looked athe me for my reaction, i was afraid to give him one. Then we both recognized he didnt cry but said we should go. The e. R. Doctor said i missed tendon and nerve, shaved off a little knuckle. Is willie invited back . Absolutely. Really . Yes, you are. Well obviously have a first aid kit standing by. Christine and i are like, youre all right. Should i crack open another bottle of wine . The house has been baby proofed. Now its willie proofed. Im the real problem right now. Wow good to see you guys. We love you, vale. We love you, vale. Youre coming back november 2nd. The 3rd. The 3rd. One more month of fun. Youll be here halloween. If i get a good offer. What is vale going to go as . Thats a good question. We were talking about that. I dont know. I thought maybe a snowball. Frozen snowman costume. Oh, yeah. Olaf. No sexy. No, no, no. People are crazy. Lets talk to savannah. Nobody wants to see that. Dont go anywhere. We have some headlines we want you to hear about. The wedding of the weekend. Youve got to go . I think we should go. Stay. Three more minutes. The babys quiet. Stay. Im sure vale wants to know that George Clooney is off the market. Very devastated. As are a lot of women. George clooney, most eligible bachelor officiallies, as of today, with the signing of the documents there in venice, it is a done deal. Married to amal alamu did din. A lot of guys upset about that. I think so, too. She is a stunner, so brilliant. Civil ceremony happening earlier today. We were struck, tamron and i, by her out fit. Gorgeous. Thats the civil ceremony . Civil ceremony. Were waiting to see what the gown was for the church ceremony. Alexander mcqueen, beautiful white dress with appliques. Its done by, natalie says who . What . Expensive. Who . The editor of vogue was there. So we believe everybody believing that theres a cover story. Thats why the beautiful gowns and so they may appear on we do know that the wedding picture also show up in a publication. We dont know which publication. When the editor of vogue shows up at your wedding, mike is like, bourbon. Do you want to go get a drink . Willie has hey, you have another hand. Are you sure theres not bourbon in here . He has been married before but people are saying the longest running bachelor. What do you think . He always said he was never going to remarry again and i just think he had to meet the right woman who would match his intellect. Hes brilliant as well. But his witty, sense of humor. The exes are saying you meet that one whose the one. The headline that came out from, i think it was, business woman media. Spectacular. The best part of the story. It says Something Like world renowned barister marries an actor. She should get the credit for this. She is a winner, man. Civil rights attorney, world renowned. You have to love, yesterday, the video, this floatilla of paparazzi and they were like, hey, how are you doing . Its smart they embraced it. Just went with it. Theyre going to be there no matter what. Just go with it. This is the least private place on the planet to get married. It seems as if he wanted to just show his love. Even announced and said when it was going to happen. So, there was no like cloak and dagger thing. Couple weeks, were doing it in venice. It was a beauty. Theyre leaving by sub. By submarine . Thats the way to avoid the paparazzi. Not subway. Theres no subway in venice. It would be a little wet. Monday moment. Not to get confused with the tuesday trend. Or manic monday. Robert jordan and jackie bank in chicago have a unique way to spend commercial breaks. What they do. The pair has worked together for many years. Ive known them for years. Theyve developed an elaborate handshake. This was on youtube in 2009. For some reason it is making the rounds now. Check it out. Whats the handshake . So this whole thing goes on for 2 25, which gives robert and jackie five seconds to pose themselves. Thats a lot. Thats a lot. I love them both personally. Thats too much greeting.

Thats why we have flood possibilities. Southern georgia, northern florida. Five to seven inches possible. 9 12. Good morning to you. Im meteorologist christina loren.

Heres the deal, temperatures really start to jump between tuesday and wednesday. Thats when youre feeling that heat, especially in the south bay, well be in the mid80s. And then the 90s for thursday and friday. Sunday, taking your temperatures down a touch especially at the coast. All right. Well, we have a slow drive right now taking the speeds down northbound 101. Pretty much all the morning, any time after 7 30. Look at your maps and we have a slow drive throughout the south bay. 101 is the worst because of a late crash by the airport. 280 finally starting to show relief. Tough stretch between saratoga. We have no problems now other than the commute. Were looking at southbound 880 where youre still bogged down. Looking here past mission boulevard. That late slowing as well as 680 probably an issue because it will ripple around from the earlier crashes we had which had cleared. Approaching the bay bridge, a smooth drive, but still has the backup. Back to you. Thank you very much. We have more local news coming up for you in half an hour. Welcome back to today.

And the carrot. Put it up. Theyre all going to be talking put it up, the picture. Shes wearing it on her nose. Certainly could get creative. Frozen in fear. The script, frozen in fear by this conversation. Elsa. Look at the elsa picture. There she is. Okay. I mean, come on. Little high. Shes obviously letting Something Else go. Who said that now . This is anna. Thats not as bad. That doesnt look as bad. I looked at that time the fishnet stockings. The stockings and the front barely comes down. I looked at it on the table and im like, this is for like a little kid. Our producer, adam, said its like eating lobster. Like a lobster bib . Halloween, my first time visiting new york city, the halloween parade, i had never seen anything like that. No, thats a whole other how many sexy firefighter costumes can you have . In this country we spend about 7 billion on halloween, costumes and decorations. Candy. And, by the way, can we all agree that demon baby decorations should be banned . We dont want those. Were sick of those. Theyre sick, demented. Crazy clowns. Nobody wants that. Wet weather in the southeast down through florida. A Beautiful Day here in the northeast into new england. A slight risk of strong storms back through Western Plains, into the rockies. And a gorgeous day in the Pacific Northwest. A few showers hanging around. Those dry out tomorrow. Slight risk of strong storms in the northern plains. More rain down in florida. Down around the southern gulf coast. Plenty of sunshine from the southw 9 33. Feeling like fall, just a spectacular day across the bay area. 78 degrees, for example, in the south bay, its 67 in San Francisco. Thats a nice day. Youll get about 3 to 4 hours of full sunshine. Youre going to have to wait for it probably until about 1 00 p. M. As we head throughout the day today, that fog is going to hold on tight, well see the coastal clouds till 1 00. Clearing after that time rolling back in, though, between 5 00 and 7 00, then we hit the summer air midweek, inland 90s on the way for the end of the week. Ill show your 7day forecast in moments. And thats your latest weather. Al, thanks. Its not often that a band is invited by the queen of england to perform for her personally. The script did just that. They performed for us live on the plaza singing their newest hit super heroes off their fourth album. Called no sound without silence. It dropped tomorrow. Danny odonoghue, mark sheehan and glen power are, in fact, the script. I would imagine that the u. S. Would make it 27. Lets hope. Does it ever get old . No. Were always nervous every time we release music. Were always nervous going on stage. I think thats because you care about what you want to do. It never gets old. Fourth album. Uhhuh. You said you wanted to go bigger, brighter. You wrote it on the back of the tour bus. How do you do that . We went out on tour with one republic. Great guys. But we also had a tour bus. If you can imagine this tour bus that sounds amazing, we had a Recording Studio in the back and all the beds and you have a front. On the bus . Its not that nice. It sounds lovely. When we got there, it was like it looked like it was made out of wood, like the flintstones. Nothing worked on it. The air conditioning broke almost every day. The bus crashed one time. You guys are rock stars. You deserve better. What we tried to do was take the energy from live and somehow capture that and bottle it. So we were playing to 20,000, 30,000 a night and taking that energy, putting into the music. You can hear it if you buy the album. When you buy the album. You can hear the passion and the energy in there. The entire album has a low hum of a bus idling. We should have probably called it in the key of bus. We put the mileage from everywhere that we did in between on the songs to show you how long and what went into the making of it. Glen, how did you guys find each other . Its a very interesting story i met some musical friends who introduced me to mark, who said would you like to come out to visit l. A. And check it out . I slept on his couch for a week. He brought me straight to the studio. When i got there, danny was in there, tinkering on a piano. We had a jam and wrote two songs. I got back to dublin and mark called me and said were playing this music for some Record Company people and they think were a band. They think were a band. So whats the name of the band . Ah, script. Call it script. And he played along with it. Do you want to be in a band . Im like, im not really doing anything right now. Danny, you could also have a career in when we met outside on the plaza, first thing you said to me is we have the same hairstyle. But also you do a mean zoolander. Yeah. I know this because when you copied my haircut, they told me. I do zoolander. Well do blue steel. You got one, too . One, two, three. Now yours. Ooh, got the eyebrow. Got the brow up there. Well have to teach you the brow trick. Im getting brow tricks. That doesnt sound right. The script, congratulations, guys. New album. No sound without silence out tomorrow. Go out and get it. All right. Up next, performance in the upcoming film whiplash getting oscar buzz already. Talking to one of our favorites, actor j. K. Simmons about that and why hes partial to yellow m ms.

When it comes to parking at levi stadium for a 49ers game, its a work in progress. We spoke with fans leaving after the niners. Big win over the philadelphia eagles.

It gets better from the first time we heard. Better today, definitely. Santa clara will have another chance to test parking next weekend when the niners host the kansas city chiefs.

George clooney, amal, they looked absolutely gorgeous. Every detail was planned. It was the most lavish wedding. I mean, we thought that kims wedding was the wedding of the year. I think this took the cake. They rode everywhere in venice, it was a love boat. It was so sweet. Something that wanted to be so private, and you know, venice is an interesting venue because you cant get anywhere except by the water. So everyone can see you. Saw a couple of public moments on the water. That was pretty much all we saw of them out in public is when they were going to and from . Well we saw them going to the bachelorette party, bachelor party. Amal was dressed to the nines. She looked stunning. One designer after another, mcqueen in the red to Dolce Gabbana in the stripes. Wheres the Wedding Dress . Wait for voeg, dont we. Its interesting that brad and angelina didnt make it, im on a first name basis. They deserve their own names. That was strange because brad and george, they did the ocean, they did movies together, and you know, the thing is that brad and angelina are shooting a film, and shes directing. So perhaps she just couldnt get away. But there were a lot of other celebrities there. Cindy crawford. Her husband. Yeah, he was the best man. How did they stop pictures from getting out . Some will leak out. How did they stop it . This was interesting. What george did is she had everybodys cell phones confiscated, then gave everybody their own personal camera, like a special camera to take inside the festivities, but apparently, theyre all designed to that if anyone releases photos, hes going to know which camera they came from. Smart. Thats enough. Youre not invited to the chrisening. And its today, they made their public vows at city hall. Somewhere, i hope that his dad was saying, now its time for grandchildren. Yeah, so sweet. Even better than george getting married, george with a baby and diapers. Yeah. Okay. There was an event for Robin Williams to assort of celebrate his life sort of celebrate his life. It was in San Francisco over the weekend at the current theater. And a lot of hollywood showed up as well as his wife and his three children. Billy crystal was the host. He cried during part of it, there were a lot of tears, a lot of laughter, they celebrated his life. And his son spoke and said that even in the darkest times, he would, you know, comfort his father, hed be okay. And his wife said that he, you know, his sobriety was in tact at the end, he was depressed over parkinsons. A lot came, they made the trek to San Francisco. Josh groban was there, you know whoppie goldberg. A the love people. Sarah michelle geller. Lets taur this. The global poverty conference in central park was crazy beautiful, then i was there when Carrie Underwood sang and when fun. Sang, and we were starving, so we left. And then, beyonce came. Beyonce came. She shocked everybody. And i think, you know, this was sort of another Public Statement i think about their marriage, in other words, so many rumors over the summer that this pair was splitting apart. So what a show of togetherness to have his wife come out on the stage. She didnt look pregnant. She didnt look it. Fantastic. Sang holy grail together and forever young. A lot of bleeping. This is endearing to her fans is that she will do Something Like this. It was a surprise. Lets talk about jlo and leah remini. Fender bender. They were at a stoplight actually, and they had a great weekend together. They had taken the kids to see a demi show the day before. Girl time, and the guy hits them from the back, and apparently he stopped, and they were exchanging phone numbers and, you know, insurance info, then he took off in his car. Did they catch him .

Joel connects with millions of people on tv, online and starting today on his very own sirius xm channel. When im in a funky mood, i turn you on sundays and you feel lighter. He wants you to follow your destiny with advice from his new book called you can, you will. So good to have you for first time with us. Welcome. My pleasure. You guys are so much fun. Well, you should see us at night. Thats when we really get going. We have a lot of fun at lunch if you care to join us. I did read the book a couple of weeks ago when i first got it. It is a fast read, but chalk full of good advice. People dont know what they want to do. I think thats part of it. You feel like youre rutterless and this book helps out. There are simple principles. Eight things that can help you live a successful life. A lot of times we know them, but you need to be reminded. One important one is to run your own race. For instance, when my dad died, he pastored the church for 40 years, i got up there an he thought i have to be like my dad. He was so successful. He was. But then i was 40 years younger than him, he was raised southern baptist, a different i had a different personality and when i finally accepted the fact that im not like my dad, im more low key, im not going to preach to people, just share stories and be encouraging, thats when it took off. When people said, you know what, hes not like his dad, did you feel like maybe i should change a little . Maybe i should adjust . At first i did. There is 6,000 people at the church when my dad died and i thought every one of these people expects me be to be like my dad chld i lo. I loved my dad. I felt like i had to fulfill my purpose. I was moved to read that your father had asked you to preach and you were terrified and he passed away a week after. But he heard you preach. How sweet a gift is that . It was amazing. I told him no for 17 years, i worked behind the scenes. Why . It wasnt in me. I liked being behind the scenes, i did the production work and my dad was a great minister. Why would anybody want to hear me . I felt luke i shouike i should. I didnt know he was going to die. He had a heart attack and died the next friday. Thats where i had the desire to step up and take the church. Your book is full of a lot of great advice. We have a couple of callers. People on the phone, probably calling into your sirius channel pretty soon. An hour show there, right . Where people can call in and talk to you . Here is cindy of north carolina. Can you hear us . Yes, i can. Good morning. Good morning. Whats your question . Hi, pastor joel. Thank you for blessing me today by speaking with me. My pleasure, thank you. What words of encouragement do you have for me and other single moms who are trying to stay in faith and keep our hope alive that some day we will meet the right christian man . You know, i think it is just what you said, you got to believe that gods got you in the palm of your hand. When you do your best, when you honor god, like this, you do what you can, god will do what you cant do. Just keep believing, keep doing the right thing and i believe god will direct and guide your steps. You have to be comfortable when it is not happening on your timetable the waiting is the hardest. You got to be positive and get up each day and say, god, i know you have the right person in store for me. Okay, jen sullivan of ohio, whats your question . Hi. Nice to talk to you, pastor osteen. Thank you. Go ahead, sweetie. I am a single mom of two boys. I became unemployed and went back to school. My unemployment is about to run out and i have two months of school left, and i want to continue school, but im not sure what to do. Im trying to make the Better Future for myself and my boys. Do you have any advice for me . Did you hear everything she said . Yeah, those are tough situations. I encourage you to pray, believe, reach out to your friends. I believe god will bring the right people into your path. Understand too, you want to finish school and, you know, we believe we believe for the best, my encouragement be would be too if a door closes, it doesnt mean it is the final door, you know. You cant get down on yourself. You got to do your best, do what you believe, you know, god led you to do and trust god to do the rest. It doesnt always turn out our way. We hope it z im going to be praying for you, but just stay in faith and dont give up on life after one bad break. That can be a good thing when youre in fellowship in a church situation. Thats what the church is for, a family to take care of one another. Friends are here to lift up each other. Thank you so much for being with us. Hes going to be on sirius xm. Yes, he is.
