About the standoff in san happening now on our web site, we have details about that standoff in san francisco. A man believed to be mentally ill Holding Police since yesterday afternoon. A live report from the scene coming up in the news at the top of the hour and on twitter, weve been talking about the big traffic problems including the fatal accident on highway 101 in palo alto. Well get to that in our traffic report and a look at the weather coming up after the break. Expect more low clouds and some mist and drizzle in san francisco. We may have a hard time seeing some of the clear as we go through the day with a high of 63 degrees, 61 degrees tomorrow. Well be back in the low 60s. Mid 60s by the end of the weekend. Next week, expect us to top out in the upper 60s. No major changes there but we will still be on the weather roller coaster for the inland valleys. Lower 80s for the start of the weekend and 90s by early next week. Lets see whats happening on the roadways now with mike. Weve had a very not too long ago here and this is looking at the full closure. You are getting by on the shoulder but all lanes officially closed with a deadly motorcycle crash here and the back extends quite a bit. Even mountain view, all the way north. Four miles north to the little bit to the roadway. We have a map, slower drive in both directions in this portion of the peninsula. 280, much clearer than 101. Southbound distracted but northbound again, folks just squeezing by on that shoulder area and that will be an issue from 237 and farther back down in mountain view. A crash on 238 just off of 80 and thats causing a backup in both directions and down to one lane. Well track both of these and give you the updates. Well see you at 11 00. Its thirsty thursday. Im here with tony danza. Today we are about to play a game. A little competition. I like that. Feine stunts your growth or have you ever wondered if those old wives tales are true. Joining us is dr. Natalie azar whos going to help us separate fiction from fact. I know this woman. Im onto her. Oh my gosh. Were going to head right in. Im going to say a statement. You decide whether its a myth or a fact. Is there a prize . There is. Okay. Peppermint tea soothes an upset stomach. Youre both correct. Thats right. Peppermint oil even can work to help spasms. It helps people with irritable bowl syndrome. People with acid reflux, it can make it worse. Number two, caffeine stunts your growth. No. That is correct. Excellent. No evidence that caffeine can inhibit growth per se. Once again, thats not a free license for adolescents and kids to be drinking caffeinated b ed beverages or sports beverages. Can you imagine paying for kicko coffee what they do today . Rest, dont exercise when youre sick . I feel better if i do get on the treadmill. What are you saying myth . Ill say fact. Myth, myth. I think you wanted to say that. No. I find if somethings coming on me, if i go and sweat it out, i feel better. Exactly. A lot of people have a rule of thumb if its from the head up, go ahead and exercise. If you have a high fever, stomach virus, the flu, not only are you going to make people sick at the gym, youre probably going to waste too much energy. Doesnt it help to do a little bit of something no matter how you are. Of course. That to me is super logical. Do what you can. Dont over exert. Maybe go 50 of capacity. Creased ear lobes are connected to Heart Disease . Oh my goodness. Diagonal ear creases can be a marker for underlying Heart Disease just like high blood pressure. There it is. Yours isnt quite as diagonal as the one in the picture. Make an appointment after that. The show. Hes a freak. Its a modest correlation at best. Number five, eating late at night results in weight gain. Im going to say thats fact. Its not healthy. Tonys got it. Its not so much when you eat. Its what you eat. The problem with eating late at night youre going to eat the fatty stuff, the stuff that tastes better. Also metabolism is generally pretty stable throughout the 24 hour period. But you know its cumulative. The calories you eat during a 24hour period does your metabolism slow down a little bit when youre sleeping . Yes. But your Metabolic Rate throughout the day is pretty constant. Number six, you need to sweat for 45 minutes to get a Health Benefit from exercise. Myth. You guys got it. High intensity is all over the place. You dont need to be sweating for that long. It feels good. Number seven, eating sugar, candy or any food before bed will give you nightmares. You got it. Its a myth. Not nightmares. It might disrupt your sleep. We dont want you eating too close to bedtime, but no correlation with nightmares. Whats the score . It cant be a tie. We had seven. Its a tie.

If your weekend plans include a trip to the Farmers Market for some fresh veggies, weve got some ingredients you want to add to your shopping list. The today food team has put together some ingredients for the perfect summer dish. Roasted corn and tomato risotto. Heather is the author of a book full of allergyfriendly recipes. You were waiting so patiently in our kitchen. You say this is dairyfree. Its dairyfree, its also naturally glutenfree, also free of nuts and soy and shellfish and all the common allergens. These are all our ingredients. They will be on our website. Were trying to if he cuss some of these market fresh ingredients. Cherry tomatoes, basil and arugula. Thats one of the things about august is everythings finally ripe and ready. And all the colors. Well start by making the pesto. We have boiling water here. Add the garlic. Some cloves of garlic into the water. Thats all. It will take away that bite when garlic gets a little crazy and we dont want to knock anyone out with our breath. He ps a boxer. To italians, Garlic Breath is like cologne. They dont trust somebody that doesnt have Garlic Breath. Tony, do you mind just putting that in the ice bath . Just a quick shock. This is a tip. Or you could just take the greens out and stick them in there. Oh i see. I didnt understand. You know, im an italian. I always throw the stuff in the coland colander. I want to get that piece of garlic. Hold on. Boom. Were going to add some rice wine vinegar which adds natural sweetness. There is absolutely no rehearsal here. You understand that, right . And they give you wine. So at some point its every man for himself here. But im eating that risotto, ill tell you right now. You want to drizzle in this the olive oil . It goes here. No, it definitely doesnt. Youll do this, it will emulsify, make a nice smooth pesto. Like this here. Please, just leave that. Youve done enough damage this is roasted corn and tomato risotto. I just want to do a little more damage. Drink it all. Weve got cherry tomatoes and fresh corn. A nice sprinkle of kosher salt. I put it in about seven or eight minutes before the risotto is going to be done which takes roughly 20 so everything comes out at the same time. Weve got arborio rice cooking here with onions. The rice is ready to add stock when it is translucent and just has a little white dot in the middle. Then youll start adding hot chicken stock. You just want to stir and stir and stir until the chicken broth starts to cook off. Did you tell me to toss this somehow . No, youre good. You roast for about how long . Seven minutes. This is cooked risotto. The key is to stir and stir. Then you get that nice creamy texture without dairy. Then you take it off the heat, add more raw corn kernels. The heat will naturally cook is slightly. We would add the pesto. That i messed up. Everybody understands. We would stir this all together. Season it with kosher salt. Then serve it up like this. I love kosher salt. Nice showmanship there. Presentation. It totally is. Thank you so much. Were going to do this. Then you would add a nice little solid of arugula and fresh avocado with olive oil. Then you would add the roasted tomatoes and the corn. And the basil. It is so beautiful, isnt it . Take a bite, please. To get this recipe, everybody, go to today. Com food.
