And in missouri and great lakes, over 2 feet of snow. And leaving 200 Million People to cope with the big chill today. Tuesday, november 18th, 2014. From nbc news, this is toda today, with matt lauer and savannah guthrie, live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. Good morning, everyone. Welcome to today on a Tuesday Morning. Can i just say brr, its cold already. How about the change in weather for me. Yesterday in Fort Lauderdale it was raining 13yearold girls, screaming 13yearold girls, i got back here it was just plain raining and now diving down. Anyway, we have more on the weather with dwyer in a second. A small cargo plane has crashed into a neighborhood. John, what can you tell us . Good morning. Reporter good morning. Officials have now located the pilots body in the wreckage of that plane. Its a twin engine propellor plane sitting on the side of that house. When you look had the wreckage, amazing the people inside were able to get out without a scratch. I heard the plane flying by and shortly after like a loud crash. Reporter terrifying moments this morning after residents heard a Small Plane Crash into a living room. A plane crashed into a living room and two elderly people were removed and checked by ems and they were fine. Reporter up in the air the pilot said he was having problems. Id like to land. Im having problems. Reporter minutes later, the control asks if the pilot is okay and after minutes of silence, they confirmed the plane crashed. He went down, didnt make to it the airfield. He did not make it to the field. Looks like he went down just short of 31 center. There are reports there is only one person on the airplane. We have not located that person yet. We have to shore up the building to do a final search. Reporter neighbors relieved the residents of the home were found safe. Im glad the family is okay and kind of lucky, too. I guess were all lucky it didnt start a fire or anything. Reporter they have now found the body of that pilot taking it out of the wreckage and ntsb is on the scene to investigate this crash. Avant naw. Amazing story. Thank you very much. In the middle east, two men broke into a jerusalem synagogue overnight and killed four people. Secretary of state john kerry immediately condemned it as an act of pure terror. Ka good morning to you. Good morning. We just learned four victims killed inside the synagogue were israeli mention and the other two were palestinian cousins from East Jerusalem. The shootout between police and the two attackers who stormed the jerusalem synagogue early this morning armed with pistols, axes and knives according to witnesses. One shot, two shots, then a flurry of shots. At least five, six, seven shots we all ran out. Reporter the violence gave way to a tumultuous scene on the ground. Police arriving on the scene shot and killed two terrorists and people taken to the hospital, four in serious condition after this terrorist attack. Reporter within two hours the chaos spread to East Jerusalem as police stormed the suspects neighborhoods firing stun grenades. Within seven hours, funerals began. The attack linked to soaring tensions between israelis and palestinians fueled to access of jerusalems hole ieiest site. In london today, secretary of state john kerry called the bloodshed a pure act of terror. I call on the palestinian leadership at every single level to condemn this in the most powerful terms. This violence has no place anywhere. Although hamas is not taking responsibility for the attacks, many of its leaders are praising the bloodshed as just retaliation. Meantime, israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu vowed to respond harshly to the murders. Matt and savannah, back to you. Thank you for the latest. Lets turn to ferguson, missouri where the gofrp has declared state of emergency and enacted the National Guard. This with the grand jury to soon decide whether or not to indict the officer who shot and killed michael brown. Ron is in ferguson. Good morning to you. Reporter good morning. The governors decision to declare a state of emergency has increased the tension here and the fear of whether the grand jury will indict officer Darren Wilson in Michael Browns death and fears of confrontation. Reporter with protesters threatening to march until officer wilson is charged with the death of michael brown. The governor declared a state of emergency and called the National Guard to help prevent trouble. My hope and expectation within the coming weeks is that peace will prevail. We have the responsibility to plan for an eventuality that might arise. Reporter organizers are criticizing the government that sends the wrong message. It kind of sends a message we are expecting the worse. I worry about that. I worry it could have an escalating effect. Reporter for many, its a reminder of the days after browns death that turned it into a battle zone. Now after mostly peace fful protest, demonstrators say theres no reason to have this. We dont want any officers hit by flying bricks and rocks. This is an extremely dangerous situation that has occurred previously. Now the fbi has warned police extremi extremists may try to exploit protests to attack law enforcement. Were in this together, st. Louis. Reporter as so many like the hometown nfl team, plead for peace. Reporter the governor gave no more specifics about when that grand jury might come nor whether there would be any warning that many school and officials have asked for so that families here caught in the middle can be prepared. Thank you. Meantime the polar plunges in full effect across the entire country. Freezing temperatures in 50 states and heavy snow. Dylan has made her way to erie, pennsylvania. Good morning to you. Reporter good morning. I got my start in tv in erie, pennsylvania. I will tell you lakeeffect snow is just as quirky now as it was 10 years ago. Its snowing pretty good and picked up on the shore. If i were to swim a mile over the water wed see snowfall rates at 5 to 8 inches an hour and in new york they are seeing heavier snow on the ground. All weekend long snow has been an issue especially towards dayton, ohio where another car crash occurred because of icy roads. Elsewhere across the Great Lakes Region we are seeing snow pile up in parts of michigan and rapid city and new york where hamburg has about 40 inches of snow on the ground. Because of that we have lakeeffect warnings over the great Lakes Crossing over the relatively warm waters of the great lakes. We will see last throughout the day and through wednesday and thursday, too. We are looking for these bands of snow to shift. As the wind shifts, the heaviest snow will shift a little bit and makes all the difference on who gets what. We are looking for feet of snow in Lake Michigan and four feet of snow off the shores of lake erie and ontario and new york. 35 inches per hour. For the rest of us, its all about the cold surging from the north. Record low temperatures this morning and feels like temperature in the Northern Plains and up per midwest near zero. Afternoon highs 2030 degrees below average. Wednesday, were looking at more of the same. This cold is here to stay a while. We might see improvements over the weekend. Savannah.

She ended up getting another ball in the end, so maybe thats why she has no hard feelings. She has no hard feelings. It was the saints which has been classier, who gave her the ball.

Were back at 7 40 this morning. On rossen reports, were beginning a new series, Hotel Secrets exposed. National investigative correspondent jeff rossen is here. He has his hidden camera handy. And this morning, housekeeping is the focus. My hidden cameras are always handy, right in my pocket over here. Next week it all start, the busiest travel season of the year. Many of us going to grandmas house for thanksgiving, hitting the road, checking into hotels. Of course, when we step inside our hotel room, we assume its clean, the maid changed the sheets, disinfected the bathroom, cleaned everything. Im sure many of them do a great job but there are exceptions. New video from our hidden cameras exposing some dirty details. Housekeepings here. And shes changing the sheets. Or is she . Sanitizing the glasses. Or not. To find out, were booking rooms for two nights at some of the most Popular Hotel chains and riging hidden cameras to capture every dirty detail. Okay. This is how we found the room. Its made up. Now were going to make it look like i slept here last night. Then the card that has to be visible for them to change the bed. Were putting it right in the middle. We put soda in these glasses. To see how well they clean them. Throw some towels on the floor. Make the bathroom look used. After the first night we call down. Hi, can housekeeping come up and clean my room . Lets start at this double tree hilton. The maid quickly strips the bed, putting the pillows off to the side. She replaces the sheets with fresh ones. But, wait. Those dirty pillows she just took off seconds ago get a quick fluff. And go right back on the bed. Thats pretty disgusting, considering people breathe, cough, even drool on these pillows. Back in the bathroom, our cameras are also rolling. As she scrubs everything down. But then this. She uses a towel to dry the toilet, the shower and then, watch it, she use that is same towel to quickly scrub the counter. Thats where you put your toothbrush. At this holiday inn, were astonished again. The maid changes the sheets but not the pillowcases. Once again, putting the old, used pillows back on the bed. Remember, at all the hotels, we put out that card to change all the linens. Its disgusting to watch. Reporter we showed our video to jacob tomsky, who spent a decade working in hotels and was even a housekeeping supervisor. What do you make of the fact that the maids never change the pillowcases . Thats the number one thing they should change, obviously. You change the sheets, you change the pillowcases. And she put it on a dirty chair before putting it back on the bed. Reporter this next hotel had our experts squirming. The crowne plaza. All of our used drinking glasses. Remember, i drank soda out of these earlier. She puts them into the sink and turns on the water. Next, she gathers all the dirty towels from the bathroom floor. But watch. She holds on to one of them and sets it down on the counter to help dry the cups. Yep, the dirty towel used for who knows what is now being used to clean the glasses you could be drinking out of next. Watch. She even puts on those paper caps to make the glasses look sanitized. Then she uses the same nasty towel to wipe down the counter top, the toilet and the tub. She never uses any soap on anything. But she does come back to spritz with room spray so it smells fresh. In a statement to nbc news, the company that owns the crowne plaza and the holiday inn say health, safety are top priorities, performs regular inspections is working to review standards. The doubletree hilton told us cleanliness is and makes sure things are sanitized properly. The hotel plans to conduct a review and address any infractions. These maids are cleaning, what, 15, 20, 30 rooms a day . Absolutely. Is this their fault or management for not checking . Management should stay vigilant and check and make sure they have everything they need to do the job. Thats why spot checks are good and these hidden camera things are good. It allows us into the room when were not there. Our expert says in many hotels housekeepers arent even given the right tools to clean correctly. In some cases management doesnt give them soap or disinfectant so they use whatever they can, like whatever towels are available. Be specific. Call housekeeping when you check in. Tell them, can you please change all the bedding and mention the pillowcases, too. Or we used the glasses. Can you replace them . Better yet, the best advice. You know the plastic ones that come wrapped . Use those. You could do what matt says, headtotoe snuggy. Im glad you brought this up in the piece, these people work so hard. You leave to go to work early in the morning. Theyre already working. You come back late at night, the same person is still cleaning rooms. They dont get paid all that much. These things are inexcusable. Our expert even said its on management to make sure the processes are in place and they have the tools they need. What have you got tomorrow . Tomorrow, we are cover your ears. Ear muffs, matt. Okay. Tomorrow morning here on today, the second part of our series. Were taking a microbiologist into these rooms.

Operations are under way to remove the body. The plane has taken off from midway airport, about a quarter of a mile from here at about 2 40 this morning. The pilot reported engine trouble, was trying to turn back and return to the airport when it nose dived into that house. It crashed into the front living room of the house.

What does it tell us. Whether or not taking a baby aspirin, if you are at risk for Heart Disease. That is, you have a history of Heart Disease or hypertension or never had a heart attack or stroke before, could taking a baby aspirin prevent that primary event. This was a study out of japan, discontinued early after five years. The study authors could not find a significant difference between the Aspirin Group and placebo group, the endpoint from cardiovascular as well as nonfatal heart attack and nonfatal stroke. Take home message, baby aspirin may not be good at preventing a primary first event for people at risk. Again, this is not about people who already had a heart attack.

One of the coach sincere going to be eliminated today, youre going to have to go home and this was the end, i would be devastated. You bring these two to the table this season. It seems like youve had to up your game as far as building your team early. Yeah. I mean, these guys are competitive without even having to be competitive, because theyre them. You know what i mean . Its not like thats awesome, too, because i like it to be fun. Dont go with pharrell. Go with me. Dont go with gwen. Meanwhile im thinking to myself i would go one of you guys, too. What is it during the blind audition now, what makes you hit your button after so many seasons . God, i hate that question. I can answer that. All you can hear is alcohol, right . Thats all i hear, is bubbling. Like a Cash Register sound. I dont look for a specific thing. I just wait for something to move me. And you never know what thats going to be. Its no different than driving around in your car listening to the radio. If a song comes on that you get pumped up about, you turn it up. You know, thats kind of what that button represents to me, just that moment of, you know, i like that. And you go for it . Absolutely. Pharrell, whats it like for you . Youve watched the show, but being on it, describe that. Its, uh its crazy. You speak to your friends and theyre like, dude, how come you didnt turn around . Come on, pharrell my doctor said take it easy just do a very simple exercise, okay . Close your eyes and just see if you would push your button. You would be very surprised. Its not exactly what you think. The lead singer, two of the greatest bands out of Southern California, they never met until this season. Crazy. From the moment i met you, i knew you forever. Its weird. Not my colleagues as much as they are my friends and my peers. Thats the coolest thing about this show, were in a unique position to make friends with our peers and a lot of times for various Different Reasons were not able to make these friendships and i love the fact that this show has produced all these wonderful friends. I was at blakes last night. You were . Not much food. Velveeta mac n cheese. And vodka. And vodka. Step over the shotguns and cars just to get to the couch. Listen, guys, thanks for a great season.

You can catch the voice pretty much every night on nbc. No, just kidding. Tonight 8 00, 7 00 central here on nbc. Matt over to you. Do you believe in miracles . Al michaels is one of the greatest names in sportscasting. His career spanning 40 years, most recently, thankfully, here at nbc. He has written about his life and career in the autobiography, you cant make this up. My hero, al michaels. Havent seen you since sochi. Exactly. Got there just in time. You werent kidding, you wanted to be a sports broadcaster even as your friends wanted to be athletes . You took a garden hose and would practice. Dodgers were still playing in brooklyn. First thing i remember in life. I went, whoa, i want to be here every day and get in for free. Here i am at the other end of life and im getting in for free. Did you think you had talent immediately . Hated my own voice. But do you know what it is, matt . Its a case of theres naivety as a child. You come out the other side and it happens and you go, oh, my god, how did that happen . You didnt immediately become a sportscaster when you got into television. You had other weird jobs as well. I d things i did after graduating out of college, i helped pick the girls for the dating game for chuck, crazy chuck. At least you told the girls that. Calling them up on a rotary phone and hopefully someone would answer. Thats how we would book them. 1980, miracle on ice. Im sure youve been asked this a thousand times. Did you know at the moment, at the instant that that game would change your life forever . I did not. I thought the u. S. Was going to lose about 81. My partner on the telecast we walked over there and saying please only be 31 soviets, middle of the second period. We had no idea. The words do you believe in miracles i mean they became part of the vernacular. I will tell you this is weird to admit. I go back two or three times a year and i watch at least the last two periods of that game. Really . Because i think your brilliance people say it was those ten seconds at the end. It is all through that game. I mean it. Im going to take my residual check from you. No, i mean it. Thats quite a compliment. You were amazing through that game the way you wove world events and sports together. Do you know what i love about the end of that game . Michael ruggio scores with ten seconds to go, the winning goal. He told me if i ever get a little down, ill put that tape in. The greatest thing about it, every time i shoot, the puck goes in. I think he also jokes that if he shot a foot to the right he would be a parking lot world series in the bay area and sports becomes news. It does. Just think, youre on live television. You spent your life in live television. Its the world series. Youre working intense day of concentration. The earth is shaking like crazy. Youre trying to understand what it is thats taking place. The one thing i remember about that very distinctly, matt, is that it only lasted for 15 seconds but it felt as it if it lasted at least a minute. And at one point, we all thought jim palmer and tim mccarver and i, were going to be pitched out of the mezzanine and the lower deck. We were fortunate. Sports and news collided at other times in your career. Coworker and good friend of o. J. Simpsons. Colleague, neighbor. Nicole Brown Simpson. I knew everybody in that scenario except ron goldman. What was your reaction when you heard that o. J. Was being investigated as a suspect inny cone Brown Simpson and ron goldmans death . Surprise. You cant believe that anybody you know could be part of a double murder. Youre like, what, this cant be possible. As it played out it became, in the minds of many, the crime of the century. Totally bizarre and surreal. Did you have an immediate opinion on his guilt and innocence . At first i gave him a big benefit of the doubt because the timeline didnt make sense to me. The photographer from muhammad ali was on a plane with him. He didnt see anything. He knows the human condition. It took a while before i would begin to understand, when o. J. Would say things like how could they think i did it as opposed to i didnt do it. That started to give me some pause. So much in the book about the things you covered and the things you misd at home because you were on the road covering those events. Its poignant and very thrilling to relive these moment. Its a fun trip down memory lane here. For all of us. Yeah. The book you cant make this up. You can read an excerpt at today. Com. Savannah . We were talking about our dream jobs when we were a kid and i said i always wanted to work in a donut shop or bakery . Dreams can come true. I would like a kidney pie and a cup of tea, please. Im english. I cant eat that. I need something with more botchlism in it. This isnt how i imagined it being. Dreams can be nightmares, easily, savannah. And Russell Brand wrote a childrens book.

A warning for people in san jose after reports overnight of a Mountain Lion sighting off glenn view drive near quick silver park.

Backups are clearing on the bay bridge after a nasty crash this morning. The chp says two cars collided around 6 00 a. M. In the tunnel of treasure island. Thankfully, nobody was injured in that incident, but that is an accident mike has been tracking for a couple of hours. Whats the very latest . The crash has cleared, but caused all these feeder routes to jam up. 880 slow, but 580 suffering the worst of it through oakland, but from the north, issue west 80 jammed up into berkley and some folks are heading over the bridge, blending with traffic out of san rafael, so slowing north of 580 itself. Rest of your northbound routes of the south bay all jammed up. Palo alto, southbound 101 really starting to show the commute. Back to you. Typical hot zones there a little bit clammy this morning. Hopefully for drivers sake, it will clear up soon. See you again in 25 minutes. As a toddler, i enjoy three activities. Breaking things. Spilling things.

Youre an expert at your job. You are an expert at writing childrens books, it turns out. I was surprised that you would want to write a childrens book. Should i be . I suppose so because maybe ive been culturally positioned as an adult figure with the skull daggery and hullabaloo and mayhem. This is your retelling of the pied piper of haemlin. Its a weird story when you think about it. How did it make it as a folk lore told to children . Stealing all the children from a town is a massive old reaction for not paying a pest control bill. Do you have any can you dramatically reenact the plot . Dramatically . Or just reenact it. Its a story thats got a message in it, about decency, connection, spirituality, how we got lost in materialism and if we lose our connection of the transce transcendent, we will be lost. You do have a way with words. If you ask me, the children of haemlin were a wretched possebelching up grod and bottoms full of stink. Yes. I think its important that theres access to pure ility. Thats just to detonate New Territories to create transcendent and beautiful ideas. Its actually a beautiful moral code, moral tale. It is. This is a revolutionary telling of the pied piper. I am glad that you said that, savannah, even though you said it in an unusual way. Cant spit it out. What you achieve as an individual is not as important as what you achieve in the community. Only 6 of people realizing their dreams maybe its because we have the wrong kind of dreams and think too much about individual fulfillmenfulfillmen. We get lost in our connection of whats pure and beautiful and important. Most of the characters are vile. Yes. Look at them up here. Revulsion. By the way, the art work is fabulous. Amazing. He gets bullied. Did you relate to him . I was a little bullied as a child because of my unusual personality plus i was kind of tuby. I wanted to reach to children who felt lonely, isolated and lost and offer them comfort and fun. The way you feel as a child isnt necessarily the way youll feel your whole life.

And not only just for that but in the kitchen people are make their own brands and branding steaks and stuff like that. We took the old table my dad built when we were kids and he had worked on a ranch. We branded it, recreated it for them in our new house. That rusticness but also a personal touch. The brands you can use as well. We branded all the ranch brands on it and took all these big brands, put them in a pot and sit by the fire as decor. For people who are afraid of putting something in a hot flame, you have electric branders. Anywhere from 11 to 300. This is a really good one and safer than using an open flame. Can you do this with kids . You need to be using the actual brand. Dont give it to them. You can swap out the letters on the electric brand. Makes it nice and easy. Anything wood at all you can turn into we gave drew a brand and moving right along. We would like to see it but we have to move along. Vintage letters. I love these marquis letters. You see this in restoration catalog. We live in vegas that has all the vintage signs. Game room we had our custom sign made. That would be cool to do a project for everybody. These are tin letters, about 12 bucks a piece or the cardboard letters are three bucks. Open them up with an exacto knife, drill the holes, put in the led lights and they look like this. Joy today. Joy today. Its regular Christmas Lights. Newer Christmas Lights are led. Its not a safety hazard to have it in cardboard. Spray it out. Drill with a regular drill bit. Unscrew the bulb, stick it through and screw it back in. It holds itself. File around the edge. You dont want to cut yourself on the metal. Its simple and easy and looks like something you would buyout of a catalog. Put it on a wall or mantle. This is a really cool idea. It involves hula hoops. While youre making it, its fun. Im not good at this. Oh, okay. I dont know whats happening here but this one here, tamron made this for russell and shes going to swing in it, in his living room. Oh she does have a thing for russell. This would be great for a kids room. Six hula hoops, top and bottom, screw them together. It forms its own shape. You can put anything inside, or if you want more elegance, this is strapping from a crate, a pallet, that i got for free. Do you just bend it around like that . Its quite easy to bend and form it on the top and bottom and it holds its own shape. Drill a hole in the top and bottom and screw them together. Jonathan designed a huge one. Just like that with a crystal chandelier in the middle. Do you live together . We do. Big bunk beds. Im only home like two weeks a year. Basically he gets his own place but its sortative family hub for our family to get together over the holidays. I love this idea. It gives something for the kids to do. Do it. Wait a minute. My jacket is too baggy. Im doing it. Im doing it. Look at this. Im just going to keep going. Youre going to be filming in new york next year. We are. Youre going to be here every day.

A man charged in the hitandrun death of a 14yearold boy in san leandro expected to appear in court today. Police say Sonny Anderson hit the teen during a high speed chase and he has a lengthy criminal record. Police say that chase started when officers tried to pull anderson over in a traffic stop.

The department is presenting its findings and concerns at a City Council Hearing coming up this evening. In about 25 minutes, a look at weather and your traffic, as well. Stay with us. Announcer from nbc news this is todays take with al roker, Natalie Morales, willie geist and tamron hall live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. Welcome to today on a Tuesday Morning. It is november 18th, its 2014 and its cold outside. Thats all i have to say. Im willie geist along with Natalie Morales and tamron hall. Al is feeling a little under the weather. Feel better, buddy. I think we all understand why. He has been on a ride. Rokerthon. 1d mania. His daughters sweet 16. He deserves a day off. Im glad youre here, tamron. Why, willie . I thought you and russell would go grab brunch or something. Little Love Connection going on. Dont yous instigate. Hes the guy. I dont know if hes the guy. Hes a guy i had a crush on. I made the mistake of sharing this with natalie and savannah. Off the record, remember when he came in, i said he is so handsome to me. I shared it. And i was betrayed. Savannah brought you in let me say in savannahs defense, he brought it up in the interview. He said i like the one called tamron. She did not say anything about tamron. That came from him. Theres real magic there. In sex and the city this didnt happen. The girls never outed each other. Oh, okay. Well ive got an idea for what . Im not going to call it a date. If you and russell like a roller coaster. Youre saying this would be a good date for us. Go grab some cotton candy and ride a roller coaster. Its in orlando. You have to wait a couple of years. This thing is called skyscraper. Check it out. Amazing. 570 feet high, the biggest roller coaster on the face of the earth. Im so doing that. Lasts four minutes, 65 miles an hour, big glass elevator takes you 55 stories up to the top. The thing is incredible. What . Jenna bush hager, 2017, get ready. Mark your 2017 calendar. Early 2017. You wouldnt do that. Oh, yeah, i love roler coaster. It lasts four minutes. If you wait in line half an hour you finally get a fourminute ride. Whats the scariest roller coaster . The hulk at universal. Universal has great role e g coasters. Hershey park has good roller coasters. And the best chocolate. Thats true. I like the rickety old ones. The old wooden ones, you go, this could go wrong at any second and i thrive on that kind of fear. It was a wooden coaster at six flags over texas, i think thats the name of it. Use the todays take and let us know your favorite coaster. We wont be visiting but were sharing the information. Tamron is going to go personally. With Russell Brand and cotton candy. Dream why dont you . It happened at a saints bengals game sunday. Remember this moment where the player sherman . Gresham. Tossed the lonely sole bengals fan the game ball, snatched from her clutches by a man named Tony Williams, speaking up for himself after he was just criticized heavily on social media. This is what Tony Williams is now saying about the moment we all discussed. What theyre saying is it was intentional and i was fighting the lady. No, i wasnt doing that. I was just trying to get the football for my grandson. I really didnt mean any harm. All i was trying to do was get a football for my grandbaby. So, christina barrett, the woman who was there, here is what she had to say. The pictures make it look ten times worse than it actually was. Im glad he got the ball. I think he deserved it. Like i said, i have no bad feelings whatsoever. As opposed to reading it. Earlier in the orange room, i read his words, as opposed to hearing the tone of his voice and hearing her. So true. And you now, i think, kind of see where they all got caught up in the moment. He got caught up in the moment. This is an example of, a, why you shouldnt text people. Say it with your voice. Because words, when you read them, and video doesnt always tell the same story. To future fans, though dont do that. If you took the ball and you kindly on national tv handed it to the woman, then the team comes and hands you a ball for your grandson. Even when he shoves her off, it was a bad look. When you hear both of them, as humans, explaining it. And i think every parent or grandparent can somewhat relate a little bit. You want something so badly to be able to give to your child or grandchild that you would get caught up a little bit. You see a ball headed in your direction, maybe not even thinking its intended from the bengals player to the bengals fan. Good point. You wouldnt even put that in your head. She also got a ball from the saints. So, everyones happy. Everyones happy. Stop sending mr. Tony williams i dont even think hes on twitter, to be honest. He doesnt seem like the twitter type. She was the least offended of anyone. It wasnt a big deal. Wasnt a big deal. Worse on camera and on social media, as we said. Here is some interesting weve got weird sound coming but anyway, were going to get through this. Im going to tell you savannah. Who is that . Is that savannah . The voice of god. Doing some work for the west coast. Good thing she didnt say anything about Russell Brand. Dont worry, she will. What else . Whats going on here . How often do you pronounce the name of a place and in your head you say, did i say that right . Brisbayne, i always get it wrong. According to the huffington post, a lot of places were pronouncing wrong. Join along with us on the bottom, lower third of your screen there youll see the word and think in your head how its pronounced. You guys play along. Well show it on the prompter. First one right there. May i . You know that one. Louisville. Or louisville. But if youre from louisville its louisville. Here is another one. Mackinac. Good. I lived in chicago. I got beat up on mackinac. Being on air. A lot of people think its macinac. Spokane. Spoken well. Antigua. Fantastic. You guys are good. This one. Kooruhsou. Its portuguese. Now youre sounding like you speak portuguese all of a sudden. Do you know which time i have a hard one with . I probably cant spell it. This is good tv, i know. Oh, well that is a hard one to say on tv. The right way. You cant see it . Its a city in virginia. No norfolk, norfolk. Norfolk. And its lethal. It can be. You have to be very careful when you pronounce it. That city in virginia, people know how to say it so beautifully. But you do it quickly. The key is speed. Norfolk. You look uncomfortable saying it. Your lips dont even move. Your mouth doesnt move. Its the hardest one. Its a career ender. It is. When i see it come up on the screen my heart starts to race. Yeah. Someobehind the scenes, so m you dont know. New orleans. New orleans. Were all good on these now . We figured it out. We move on. Its never too soon to start thinking about christmas. It is but were going to do it anyway. Kristen bell, who we like so much, got together with an Acappella Group called straight no chaser, sang a new holiday song. I love it. About how we communicate with each other over the holidays. We dont send cards or even call anymore. Here is the new song. Text me Merry Christmas let me know you care just a word or two of text from you will remind me youre still there you dont have to add much to it one smiley face will do baby text me Merry Christmas cause im missing kiss iing you text me Merry Christmas make my holiday complete though youre far from me say youll brb thats a text ill never delete choose just the right emoji one that makes me lol and if you text me something naughty i promise i wont tell sweeping the nation. Text me Merry Christmas. Straight no chaser. Check it out on youtube and probably somewhere else. Theyll be on our show december 5th. I dont know if theyll perform this for us. Text Merry Christmas or happy thanksgiving . Probably to friends around the country. My family is usually in one place but friends ill text. You do . I usually send cards on christmas, too, but i dont like when people text me. You can text me anything. You can text me but Merry Christmas. And happy thanksgiving, you call. You call every one of your friends . I do, and their parents. Where do you find the time . Im not doing anything else. But i do. I dont know. Thats my soft spot. Its very nice. Make me feel bad. Its a long conversation that you have with everybody. They do a group one. Hi, happy thanksgiving. Group text is bad. Check the weather with dylan dreyer in erie, pennsylvania. Things have taken a turn for the worst here. The snow band has made its way on the bay. Snow is falling three to five inches per hour. Up to our north, 85 miles to our north in hamburg, new york, thats where the snow is falling at rates tleef s of three to fs and actually reaching the ground. Cold air crosses over the relatively warm waters of the lake, wind shift is changing heavier bands to a different area. Literally its the difference between five miles with some of these tight snow bands. We are looking at a foot or two possible through michigan and two to three feet across parts of western new york and northwestern pennsylvania and its all this cold air thats skre stretching all over the country. Nearly every state, or one city at least with temperatures good morning to you. We are going to get a taste of our own weather as we get into this afternoon, and you can clearly see that sky getting filled with clouds at this hour. Now i can tell you showers are going to hold off for today. Thats good news, you can get outdoors and clean out your storm drains before the rain arrives tonight. Once it starts, the storm window will be open through this upcoming weekend. Final day of the upper 60s to low 70s. Showers start tonight about 6 00 in the north bay. And that is your latest forecast. Back to you guys in new york. One more report, just one more. Thanks, dylan.

Its what makes thanksgiving, thanksgiving i had to get out of there. I faked an attack of scurvy. Uughhhh ughh [ sighs ] scurvy. Works every time. You will be hearing an awful lot about Eddie Redmayne and Felicity Jones during award season, i can promise you that. Its for very good reason. Starring in the theory about everything, Stephen Hawking and his wife, jane, at the time of his diagnosis of a debilitating disease. If you care about me at all, please go. I cant. I have two years to live. I need to work. I love you. You thats a false conclusion. I want us to be together for as long as weve got and if thats not very long then thats just how it is. Eddie and felicity, it is such an honor. I watch this had movie yesterday and was just a puddle in the theater. Its so beautifully done. You two. Your performances are incredible. Together, we saw that chemistry. What was it like . Performance of a lifetime for both of you, right . Yeah. Were very proud of it. It was something that, you know, you feel a great sense of responsibility because youre playing real people. So, you know, eventually we knew that stephen and jane would be watching the film. So we really wanted to do our homework and get to know them and bring the richness and exentrickity of both of them to the parts. We were just discussing it in the break. It is so remarkable to see Stephen Hawking at this time in his life just when he gets the diagnosis of the disease at age 21. Almost all of us have only ever seen this genius in a wheelchair. I had seen him from a distance in his chair and overheard his sort of iconic voice. And he always had this extraordinary kind of rock star sort of quality, but i knew nothing. I was so ignorant. What was amazing about working on the film was discovering that story, his humor and he has such a vibrant character. Felicity, its a love story. We know so much about Stephen Hawking and his accomplishments. But the texture and the richness of his life that jane brought in and brings in is incredible. Absolutely. Thats what i kept finding, you know, and understanding this woman, this profound depth of love that she had and that they had for each other. And, you know, its a complicated situation, being a career and bei e carer and being cared for and how this couple survived and navigated their relationship was inspiring. They were there for each other constantly. By his side for 30 years. Eddie, what was it like for you when he was there on set, Stephen Hawking on set and jane, too . I understand it was a little awkward. What was amazing, we had actually met both jane and stephen before we started shooting, but ill never forget on the first day of filming, we were shooting in cambridge and i was playing a Young Stephen and jane came cycling past, came running over to me and went to my hair and said, no, no, eddie, his hair would be much messier. It was wonderful having the actual jane doing my hair for me. So sweet. Wonderful movie. Congratulations on all the buzz that is much deserved. You put your hearts into it it and it shows. Bravo.

Com taking a look at the headlines, frightening scene in illinois where a Small Plane Crashed into a house in a small chicago neighborhood. The pilot radioed that he was having trouble with an engine and was trying to get back to midway airport. Raising questions about whether lowdose aspirin can prevent a first attack. It followed more than 13,000 elderly people in japan, some who took aspirin, some who did not. They found any possible benefit was outweighed by a higher risk of bleeding. Daily aspirin may help patients at high shortterm risk but those at low risk should not take it routinely for preferential of heart problems. A new study suggesting a lot of americans who have diabetes dont know it. They wanted to estimate how many people have diabetes and are getting proper care for it. What they found, some 8 million americans, about three out of ten, who have diabetes, are unaware that they have the disease even though most of them had recently seen a doctor. A new analysis from the Pew Research Center finds the growing number of americans are saying i do more than once. It finds four in ten marriages now include at least one partner who has been married before and two in ten marriages are between people who have both been married before. Toyota plans to start selling Hydrogen Fuel cell cars in japan and next year in the u. S. The vehicle of the century. Fourdoor midi.

The penguins are at high risk for extinction in the wild because of overfishing, Climate Change and pollution. Coming up, youre watching today in the bay. Good morning, its 9 26. Im kris sanchez. A warning for people in san jose after reports overnight of an Mountain Lion near quick silver park. Police say at least three people called 911 to report the cats, including a woman who was trapped inside her car for fear of the cat. San francisco taxi drivers are not ruling out another scene like this one that appeared outside sfo last night. Cabs clogged arrivals and departures as part of a protest against rideshare Companies Like uber and lyft. Traditional Taxi Companies say it is not a level Playing Field and Rideshare Companies are paying less in fees. San francisco 49er vernon davis will be helping to light the tree at santana row. The tight end will be joined by sour dough sam and the 49ers cheerleaders. Theyll flip the switch on a 40foot holiday tree right around 5 00 and there will be drinks and cocktails in a similar spirit. We have a look at weather and traffic coming up after the break. Welcome back now. The time is 9 28. The sky, oh yes, the clouds are now filling in. We have a mostly cloudy sky. Were going to keep it at bay until this evening at about 6 00. Before we see those showers, temperatures will be comfortable. 72 degrees in the south bay, 71 degrees on the peninsula. The east shores at 69 degrees, and yeah, even here in the south bay those skies turning dark. Now as we head through tomorrow, widespread rain, a bit of a break early thursday, but then it returns for friday into saturday, as well. Heres mike and your drive. Starting in the north bay, dry roads, nice sunshine, but a slow drive still southbound. We had two crashes around north san pedro. Look at your man, jam there in to novato. Easy drive across the Richmond San Rafael bridge. This tuesday not quite as bad as we sometimes see. Really concentrating on southbound 880 through fremont, late build. Same for northbound routes, crash with the car on the center divide, did clear nicely into downtown. Back to you. All right. Well take it. We have more local news coming up in just a half hour. We hope to see you then. Amazing. What a conversation this has been in the break, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome back to today. Its tuesday5zj . morning, nove 18th, 2014. Perfect song. Perfect song. Prince. I love this song. This video is one of the best. But we digress. Als off. Hes out sick today. We hope he will get better soon, if youre watching. Prince, theres a reason for it. Our very insightful conversation yesterday. Tensecond french kiss, more on that in a second, can spread 80 million bacteria between you and your partner and we may have found some proof. The conversation natalie said the human species is the only species that french kiss. Thats what you said. Natalie said that and we went along with it. We had no proof otherwise. So we got a couple of pictures. On twitter, a photo that he believes debunks natalies theory. He spent us another picture. These are prairie dogs. The rights to gopher pictures . Apparently. Prairie dogs doing the same thing. Clearly in a passionate kiss. I see no tongue. Hes eating crumbs off her nose. Willie said he saw no tongue connection. And i said why does that matter . Because i, until today, at 9 30 am, did not know that french kissing meant with a tongue. To which i said i thought it was a passionate kiss. Did you go to high school in america . Did you never french kiss . But you didnt know it was french . Number one, my mom watches the show. Number two, i just thought it meant like like pepe lepew. Why does the french get the honors of having the kiss named after them . The american kiss. Soea ali foi i found out we call it kissing because they were had more exploratory and sexually open. They get the honors because we american americans are oh, yeah . You went all french on me, gave me goosebumps. That was informative. Lets get a check of the weather from dylan in snowy, chilly, erie, p. A. Thanks for making me laugh, though. Its pretty miserable out here right now. I appreciate it. Hey, you know, things have certainly changed here. Heavier snow is trying to move in. The winds are shifting. We are going to see heavier snow take hold of the lake shore here in erie, pennsylvania. Heavy snow falling up across new york, right outside of buffalo we have feet of snow on the ground. Snow has been falling at rates of three to five inches per hour. This stuff is really incredible. Little shift in the wind will change it to a whole other city all together. We will see lakeeffect snow today, tomorrow as well. And temperatures will be staying about 20 to 30 degrees below 9 33. Happy tuesday to you. You can see that sky filling in with clouds as we head throughout the day today, that will be the story. The storm system arrives as we get into tonight, but were still going to see comfortable temperatures before the rain arrives in the north bay between 5 00 and 6 00. 72 degrees for today in the south bay. 71 on the peninsula. Changes just around the corner, then once we start this rainy pattern, we are going to stick with it well into the end of the week. More on the timing of the system today at 11 00. And thats your latest forecast. Natalie and willie . Dylan, thank you. When it comes to money, mistakes can cost you big time. The best thing to do is learn from other people. The biggest money eras people make in their 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s and 60s and advice on how to fix them or avoid them all together. Rachel cruz is the author of 2n smart money smart kids. Good to see you this morning. Good to see you guys. These look very familiar. Whipper snappers in their 20s, not getting serious about Student Loans. Thats right. Students have taken out loans, graduate and keep them around for a long time. I want you to get serious. I want you to sacrifice your lifestyle. Live on a budget. Pay off your Student Loans as quickly as possible. How do you avoid new debt at that age . Avoiding all new debt. Stay away from the credit cards. Remember if youre in your 20s, youre not in your 50s. Some may want to live like their parents. Dont go out to eat all the time and take the fancy vacations. Live below your mean. Dont live large. Moving over to our 30s, putting off Retirement Savings is a big mistake that people are making during this age. Its a mistake because the earlier you start investing the better off youre going to be. Compound interest is your friend. Start early. Start in your 30s, even though it may seem far off, start now. Compound interest, for example, if youre 30 years old, you save 500 a month. At 10 interest, 1. 7 million, age 65 as opposed to at 40. Ten years later it goes down to 650,000. You can see how quickly it goes down. The math is on your side in your 30s. Start investing as early as possible. And the tax benefit is on your side as well. Thats right. Investing in a 401 k plan. You can start with that, yes. Lets move on over to our 40s here. Big mistake, people not having Life Insurance. Yes. People put that off and think im going to live forever. They do. If someone is dependent upon your income, you need Life Insurance. If you have a family, get Life Insurance. Both spouses income is dependent on the family staying afloat, you both need Life Insurance. Even stayathome moms need Life Insurance. Do i get term, whole . What makes sense at this age. I suggest term. Its going to be the less the least expensive and probably your best bet. So, term Life Insurance is the way to go. Cool. Lets move on to our 50s now. The biggest mistake, hanging on to your mortgage for tax reasons. Yes. Whats the benefit of doing this . This is a tricky one. I would rather pay the interest and get the tax benefit versus paying the taxes on what i would have for the interest. And so the fix is to get completely debt free. You dont like this idea of hanging on to the mortgage . Not ideal, no. Again, well take 200,000 mortgage, youll pay 10,000 per year in interest, if its a 5 Interest Rate. People keep that Interest Rate keep their mortgage to get that tax benefit. Lets say you completely paid off the mortgage, then you have to pay taxes on the 10,000. If youre in the 25 tax bracket youll pay 2,500 to the irs. Pay off the debt as soon as possible. Exactly. Last one in your 60s, mistake a lot of parents make, they want to give back to their kids and loan money to their kids. They do. This is a fine line for parents, especially when you have adult kids. You want to help your kids but dont want to enable them. My fix for this is give it as a gift if you decide to give them money, not as a loan. Onetime gift. You dont want your adult kids dependent on you. You want them to be adults and out on their own. Thats a hard thing for a parent to do when they need help. It is. You can give them a onetime gift. When you attach a loan to it, suddenly mom and dad become the bank. It changes the relationship. Changes the relationship. Thats exactly right. Thank you so much. Good to see you. Appreciate it. Coming up next, while youre busy stuffing that bird, weve got cool stuff to keep the kids busy. Stop laughing. And to add a little style to your thanksgiving table.

Absolutely. Whats so exciting about this time we have, i have a statement that i talk about that we need to starve the lie and feed the truth. We have to figure out how do we do that . What are the lies we need to starve . One of the things i say in hungry the truth about being full we all have an identity theft. We think about somebody stealing our credit cards, passports, license. What we dont think about is someone stealing our true and core identity and that when we think were successful, but were successful at living someone elses life.

But, bobby always had a plan. [ male announcer ] with unmatched training in over 150 careers beyond the battlefield, there are over 150 surprising ways to become army strong. Talk to your son or daughter about opportunities in the army. Tony robbins is a life and business strategist, entrepreneur and bestselling author. Over his 37year career, his audio and video programs sold more than 50 million copies and now hes out with a new book, his first in nearly two decades. It is called money master the game and hes with us. I cant believe it has been over two decades since you wrote a book. Yes. Writing is not my favorite thing. Im on a plane every four days, i go to 15 countries, see a quarter of a Million People a year, but this subject grabbed me because i grew up very poor. I see people being taken advantage of, losing their homes, i wanted to participate in the solution. You say very poor. You mean very poor. Tell us. Kicked out of your home, cars repossessed, avoid the creditors, no money at thanksgiving. My life was changed when someone came and fed us at 11 years old at thanksgiving and it made me believe that strangers care and made me care about strangers. Which is why you donate the profits of this book. All the profits of the book in advance and the reason is i was writing the book, the solutions for the average person, i want to change their life, but i also thought, we cut food stamps by 8. 7 billion, so 2 Million People are gone off the rolls. I want to Pay Attention to it. Im feeding 15 Million People this year and theyre going to try to get matching funds for 100 million. Hats off to you. You say this book can change peoples lives, average peoples lives. How so . I said, you know, can the average person still win . I interviewed most people dont know, i coached a man named paul tutor jones. I know paul. Financial trader, 21 years, ive been with him, he made money every year for 21 years. Hes a genius. He gives a lot away. He sure does. What is amazing was i thought if i can interview him and 50 of the smartest people in the world and find out people that started with nothing and now theyre billionaires, i can take that and teach anybody how to do it, from the beginning, like a student, got a bunch of student loan or baby boomer trying to retire. It is a fouryear journey. Big book. Yes. A lot in this thing. What important nugget, people are saying, nodding their heads wanting the info, but what are the important nuggets. What you dont know will really hurt you. Right now, one out of three baby boomers have a thousand dollars for retirement and the people that do it when they retire have a 401 k . Do you know how much you spend on your 401 k , what your costs are . No. 99 of the people dont. The reason is because they want to make it so complex you dont know. There is a process people talk about, they end up with your money, you end up with experience. I show you how to protect yourself. The average mutual fund, people think maybe theyre paying 1 . Theyre paying 3. 17 according to forbes. Im sure you go, who cares. Heres why you should care. If you want to suck sceed, you e to compound your money. There is a gentleman that started out with literally nothing and made 14,000 a year, named theodore johnson. U. P. S. Never more than 14,000 a year. He was worth 70 million. He automated it. He pretended it was a tax and took 20 , i cant save 5 , his friend said, if the government came and took out 20 , you have to pay it. He took 20 out, put it in an automatic investment account and it compounded over time. But if you had fees in there, a buch bunch of fees, like a mutual fund, you would be in trouble. Many lose money over a tenyear period of time, they make less than the market. Youre paying 3 . Heres why thats important. If you have three people, 100,000 when theyre 35 and never add something to it and grow it 7 , they never had a dime, the person with 1 fees, 574,000, a lot of money. The person with 3 fees will have 324,000, a quarter of a Million Dollars less, 77 less money. So if you just get yourself out of mutual funds and put money in places that i can show you the most successful people in the world do, eliminate those fees, you change the whole game. When you he is 14,000, im sure anyone can relate to it and say i can chunk out that kind of money. Do you like the stock market . I like to invest because i know a lot about it. I went to ray diallo, one of most successful investors in the history of the world, over 5 billion net worth and 100 million to start. Today he wont take anybodys money. I got three hours with him. I asked him what i asked all the investors. If you could give any money to your children and all you could do is give them a strategy where they wouldnt have to go through ups and downs, what would he do . He said all weather strategy. I said explain it to me. He said, this is great, except he didnt tell me any of the formulas. Build a chocolate cake, use chocolate, use sugar, tell me the secret. After three hours, hes never in the history done it. He was so generous. He gave me the formula. When they tested it, sent it out to people in the last 75 years it has been successful and accurate 85 of the time. It is in the book . It is in the book. The reason to go and get the book. 15 minutes, once a year. The other reason, it is going to feed a lot of people. Tony, thank you. God bless you. Happy thanksgiving.

It is kind of weird, like why throw the baby out with the bath water. Does she call you and well, she keeps me no, no, no. But we there is some lines i think have to be established. I think it is about full disclosure. If youre letting a person know, im in a relationship, and also as far as being friends with exes, if your wife is not also a friend with that ex, you probably should not be a friend with this ex. As long as it is all good and everyone is on board with it, i think it is fine. Chuck . I left you for a reason. Okay. There is a reason we are not together.

My name is calle from la grand, iowa. I was wondering how do i get my husband to be more affectionate in public when our friends are all loveydovey . It does feel weird if everybody else is pawing each other. You got to show it off in public too much who are you trying to prove it to. Thats something to think about. Maybe keep it a little private. Hopefully you can slide up under him like a cat does. Rub up. Thats not him. Just be cool. The more everyone else knows that shes yours, thats mine. I think you should just let it lie. My wife is not a publicly affectionate at all. If she would have kissed me in public, it would be, like, the godfather. Im waiting for her to go, i know it was you, fraido. I know it was you.

Thats something she used to squaw stuf maybe this nice lady should let her son know how much it would mean to her if he would call her more. Call him a couple of times. Lay the guilt on him. Do what mothers do. All right, guys. Who has another question . Hi. Im kelly from richmond, virginia. I was wondering how do i get my husband to realize his shoes dont magically appear in the closet every night. I would like him to understand all the Little Things i do all day. Picking up his stuff all over. My father used to always say if you dont throw that trash out at night, ill pour it in your bed. Which never happened. But take the shoes and dump them in the bed. He goes to lay down he may climb up there and say they are not on the floor anymore. Right. I told you my son would always leave them then he goes away and, it is, like, i miss his shoes. I dont know. What is a good way to encourage a guy to do things he doesnt want to do . You know, guys do what theyre going to do the right thing, theyll do it because they made that decision. Sometimes you just have to say, look, you know what, i married a guy who leaves his shoes out. If i dont want the shoes out, i have to dump them in his bed or pick them up myself. Thats why youre divorced, right . Exactly, i couldnt stand her shoes being in the bed. How much time do we have . Next installment of the real house men of the today show. Thank you. So much fun.

You know drew and Jonathan Scott from Property Brothers, the realtor, contractor siblings, transform family fixer uppers into their dream home. Today we have them here to show two renovations in their own home that might inspire you to upgrade the look of your space. Welcome, guys. You went to your own house and fixed it up. After years and years, fixing up everyones house, we went home to vegas, spent time there and show people what we do to our own place. We thought this would be the safest way to invite you over to the house. I like it. I love renovations. Before and after. Were looking at a room in your home. Just because you buy a home that needs work, it was a beautiful house, nice, tall points, but boring. Nothing had been done. We kept whatever we could keep, things like the counter tops, and then youll see the after, blew out the entire back wall, put in a window wall that opens up, built a custom case for all of our collectibles from travels on the wall and also herringbone, large herringbone pattern on the fireplace, beautiful before and after. And if you ever want to dance, you know a cage . A chandelier. Is there a sword up there . There is. Were scottish. We wanted to show our heritage. We have a collection of swords and armor. Thats one of the pieces we had. I think it is important when youre designing to design around conversation pieces. Everything in this home is something from our travels. All right, good. Beautiful. All right. Lets see this is your backyard. Yeah, the backyard. Thats the after. I made a bit of a mess. It was a dirt lot, nothing ever been done. So we dug it up, put in every feature on the left, thats a 15 foot movie screen, we can watch the game, infinity pool, pool bar across the back, commercial grade water slide. Our kids always wanted. Jonathan wanted to have that because hes a big kid. Where is the movie screen . Is it really there . You cant see from this angle, on the left side, you can see under construction how long did the whole thing take . It took me five months. Should have taken about a year. I dont want to waste any time. Were in vegas. We dont want anyone to go down to the strip to have fun. We stay at our house. Thats amazing. Did you fight over who likes what . I carry bigger power tools so anybody argues. This house, we sold our individual places and got this as a family hub. Our parents come for the holidays. We built them a guest house around the corner. Great. Were only charging 40 bucks a night if somebody wants to come stay with us. Thats a deal in vegas. This is somebody elses. This is the same thing, looking at this is somebodys kitchen before, they thought we had to gut everything. You dont have to waste money. We changed the countertops, sprayed out the cabinets, youll see in the after part, those are the exact same cabinets. Warmed it up. To save money werbs p, we pu Butcher Block island in there. Thats amazing. I cant believe the difference. I love the back splash you did there. One more. Lets see the next one. Same thing in the living room. We looked at the features, it would be really costly to replace all the stone around the fireplace, wasnt that bad. They wanted to open everything up. Take the wall down. A little separation. So this is our we framed the wall, i found some old reclaimed wood from a barn, and wrapped it around the wall to create a thats a few hundred bucks. Reclaimed wood, it is a beautiful feature and it adds a lot of character. Thats when the money adds up, the supporting beams and walls. I didnt tell the farmer whose barn i took down. Thinking maybe you can replace jonathan, you can be the new property sifter, he can hang out with hoda. You guys are a delight. Happy thanksgiving.

With nearly 50 books under her belt, you may think Mary Higgins Clark would be out of suspenseful ideas, but youre not even close . In the cinderella murders, they takes on the most terrifying industry of all, television. So happy to see you. I love to be here. You know that. We catch up on the gossip. We do. A lot to talk about. We know you have cowritten a few books with carol. This is your daughter carol. Alester burk, tell me about her. Alester was a prosecutor. She has ten books of her own. Some like the plot of the last book, ive got you under my skin. They said why dont we take the same characters and make it a series. Thats how it happened. Okay. Because i always was fascinated by people who were under submission for an unsolved murder. I love it. That kind of thing. But i thought suppose we do a program, a Television Program where you bring those people in, and theyre giving their version of what happened. Are some of these ripped from the headlines, real crimes, or do they all cook up in your head . Well, the one that i did in april, that cooked up out of my head. This one, the cinderella murder, there was a story about a young girl, a college girl, who was murdered. And her shoe had fallen off trying to escape. But we dont write about her at all. We just take the basic situation and say, lets see what we can do with it. Mary, why do you think you had so much success as a novelist . A lot of people put books out there. Why do you think youre close to 50 now that are always, always first on the New York Times bestseller list. I honestly think that im a storyteller. And i think that, you know, an irish storyteller, irish say nothing simply. I heard that, you know, growing up. She married that one. Exactly. Yeah, yeah. And i think it is storytelling that people want. Cant beat a good story. Natural to me. The only talent i have. Only talent you need. Your facebook fans want to ask you questions. How many hours in a day on average do you write . Well, i start in the morning, of course. There is a business end to writing. This is part of it. There is a family end to writing. But i always got the computer on. And i will go and if it is a busy day, just get two hours in. Because i miss it if i dont. Youre making time for it. I make time. I make around time for it. It is terrific. We love you to pieces. Well see you next week when your next one comes out, all right . Four days. Four days, all right. Happy thanksgiving, darling.
