More downloads in its first week than any other song in history. And the countdown to her appearance in our studio is already on today, tuesday, november 3rd, 2015. Announcer from nbc news, this is today with matt lauer and Savannah Guthrie live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. And good morning, everybody. Welcome to today on a Tuesday Morning. November 3rd, shes coming on november 25th, yes. Yeah. Sitting here, just wait. A lot of people into that song around youve been singing all morning. I think some would agree, youre kind of crushing it already, not in the same way though. Well wait for adele. Well let her sing that one. Absolutely. Our days top story, one year to go to the 2016 president ial election and the new poll has ben carson and Hillary Clinton surging and president obama is weighing in on the way. Well get to the lester holts exclusive interview with the president in a moment, but well start in washington with nbc National Correspondent Peter Alexander. Peter, good morning to you. Reporter hey, savannah, good morning to you. This race is now just getting good. The big headline this morning, that ben carson has shot up seven points in less than two weeks. That drops donald trump to second. 50 of republicans pick carson as either their first or second choice, and while the depth of that support is yet to be tested, hes already proven to be a force in this field. Dr. Ben carson signing books and shaking hands but leaving his opponents shaking their heads. Our brand new nbc news wall street journal poll shows carson surging into the lead among gop primary voters at 29 , the highest number for any republican so far this season, since points ahead of donald trump. Carson support strongest among evangelical and female voters, even more if the former neurosurgeon is the nominee, 77 of republicans say they could see themselves supporting him. Just 60 for trump. I continue to do what ive been doing and that is to tell the truth and talk about the issues that are important to the people. Reporter still, trump is lashing out at another wouldbe rival, freshman senator marco rubio whose debate performances vaulted him into third place, both nationally and in the critical early primary state of New Hampshire. I think hes an overrated person. I dont think hes going to make it. Reporter when asked, trump also dismissed rubio as a potential running mate and is following jeb bushs lead criticizing rubios poor Senate Attendance records. Marco doesnt show up to votes. He doesnt do things that youre supposed to do. Reporter bush remains sagging in Single Digits in fifth place promising a political reset. I can fix it. Reporter and giving a glimpse into all the advice hes getting to pick up his game. Ditch the glasses, get rid of the purple striped tie. I like this tie. It only cost 20 bucks. Reporter meanwhile, the Republicans United front pushing to change upcoming debate for t formats is already fraying with donald trump insisting hell negotiate with tv networks alone and john kasich and Chris Christie and Carly Fiorina wont sign on to any letter demanding changes and the president mocking them last night. And then it turns out they cant handle a bunch of cnbc moderators at the debate. If you cant handle those guys, you know, then i dont think the chinese and the russians are going to be too worried about you. Reporter a couple more items about our poll. For all his support donald trump also remains the most unpopular political figure in that poll. 56 of americans say they have a negative view of him, but this is important. When asked who has the best chance in the general election, trump still leads all republicans. Matt and savannah. All right. Peter alexander, thank you so much. Lets take a look at democratic side now. Our new poll shows Hillary Clinton pulling away. Nbcs Kristen Welker is in iowa where secretary clinton is campaigning today. Kristen, good morning to you. Reporter matt, good morning to you. Secretary clinton has two town halls here in iowa today, and it does come as our new poll shows she is increasing her lead over her top challenge over vermont senator Bernie Sanders. Lets take a look at numbers. According to our latest poll, secretary clinton now leads sanders by 31 points. Thats up from her 25point lead in october, but its not all good news. She still struggles with the general electorate. 53 of registered voters give her poor marks for being honest and straightforward with only 27 of her high marks. Now, these numbers are significant because they underscore that Voter Perception is still an issue for clinton, even after the first debate, benghazi hearing and bidens decision not to get into the race. This morning clinton is releasing this new ad here in iowa and New Hampshire. Its focused on gun safety, and it comes after clinton met last night in chicago with mothers and family members of africanamerican men and boys who were mostly killed during interactions with law enforcement. Among those at the meeting, the mothers of trayvon martin, Michael Brown and tahrir rice. Now this issue of gun violence and also the black lives Matter Movement increasingly pressing in this democratic primary. Expect secretary clinton to focus on all of that later today here in iowa. Matt, savannah. All right. Kristen welker in iowa for us. Kiss ten, thank you very much. With an election one year out there theres a popular phrase were hearing allotted from the candidates its the long view. They say you dont want to look at poll numbers now. They have little impact of what will actually happen in 12 months. Are they right . We edecided to look back. In 2007 this is how the polling stacked up on the democratic side. Hillary clinton had 47 opinion to 25 for president obama. As we know obama went on to win the democratic nomination and the presidency. And on the republican side it was Rudy Giuliani leading the pack with 33 and john mccain had 16 and as we know senator mccain eventually became the republican nominee. And heres how the race looked in 2011. Mitt romney had 28 and her mincane was 27 . Romney went on to become the partys nominee. Lets turn now to nbc nightly news anchor lester holt who talked about the 016 race, his legacy in the white house and a lot more in that interview. I have to tell, looking at those numbers, you forget. You forget how quickly things can change the i sat down with the president. We wanted to talk about criminal Justice Reform and spent a lot of time on that and gave us a few minutes later on to talk about the 2016 election. Hes kind of on outside looking in right now at this process. He talks about silly season as he calls it and he pointed out that right now were not hearing a lot in terms of specifics. I think the problem with election season is sometimes folks want to devote a lot more time to sloganiering and stirring folks up emotionally, but they are not spending enough time, you know, really trying to explain to the American People what exactly are you trying to do . That was kind of his broad view at the situation right now. He did, of course, tweak the nose at the republicans a little bit. Mentions its silly season d. Have that mocking comment for the gop candidates and last debate do you get the sense hes following this very closely or occupied with other issues . I think hes following it very closely and i think he will become more involve. By the way, he said something very similar to me about the cnbc debate and pointing out that if youre going to try to take on World Leaders youve got to be able to deal with the moderators and well play that tonight on nightly news but hes drilling down. He talked about with republicans, the sense that theres kind of a disgruntled element as he put them that seem to be driving the conversation through social media and i i think we all recognize that the electorate will become more engaged now as we move past the holiday season. Hes watching very closely. Well get more of that interview with president obama tonight on nbc nightly news. The mystery now of what cause that had passenger plane crash in egypt is deepening this morning. U. S. Officials telling nbc news they are ruling out a missile, but could it have been a bomb . Nbc chief global correspondent bill neely is in cairo. Bill, good morning to you. Reporter yeah, good morning, matt. A lot of significant developments. U. S. Defense officials telling nbc news that heat flash rules out a missile strike but nothing else, and we have the first hints of what might have been heard on the cockpit voice recorders. The heat flash was detected over the desert of the exact time of the crash, but the brief bright light seen by the u. S. Military satellite could have been caused by many things. It could have been a missile or a bomb on the plane. It could have been an engine or fuel tank exploding in midair or even the plane hitting the ground. The infrared satellite detected a flash, not a heat trail, so defense officials tell nbc news a missile is not the cause. A Russian News Agency says one black box reveals routine conversations, then unusual sounds in the cockpit but no distress signal. The debris field is also yielding clues. The Russian News Agency says investigators have found what are describes as elements not related to the aircraft structure. Isis claims it downed the plane. Egypts president dismisses that. Thats propaganda. Reporter its propaganda, he says, and warns about jumping to conclusions. The u. S. Is cautious, too, about a terrorist link. Its unlikely, but i wouldnt rule it out. Reporter investigators are working on the two flight recorders, extracting information but still releasing none. The airline metrojet claims a technical fault couldnt have caused the crash, blaming and external impact. Russian Officials Say that isnt based on fact. Among the dead the sheen family pictured leaving for egypt. Their deaths, like all the others, still unexplained. So investigators are ruling out nothing at moment, not mechanical failure nor mass murder as a result of terrorism, and still no official word here on what those black boxes might reveal, the hints though suggest an event so sudden and unexpect the the crew simply had no time to do anything. Matt, savannah . Bill neely in cairo, thank you so much. We learned overnight that the man who played a pivotal role in persuading the u. S. In 2003 has died. Talking about ahmed chalabi, an iraqi politician. He lived years in exile but hes the guy who bushed the Bush Administration with since discredit the information about weapons of mass destruction. The 72yearold died of an apparent heart attack. Now to new allegations against volkswagen which the u. S. Government says got caught cheat on emissions tests again, this time for more than 10,000 more cars than the company has previously acknowledged. Nbcs tom costello is on the story again. Tom, good morning. Reporter hi, good morning, savannah. This could mean millions more in new fines for the worlds second largest carmaker which has already admitted to altering engines to harm harm full emissions in more than 11 million cars. Now the epa says its also found fraud under the hood of thousands of pores,s, volkswagens luxury line. They are amongst volkswagens priciest cars and most profitable. Luxury suvs like the pores, cayenne and vwturig as well as 2005 audi models with a v6 Diesel Engine that the epa says vw equipped with secret software to fool investigators. In a statement to deny the latest allegations, vw insists no software has been installed to alter emissions characteristics in a forbidden manner, pledging to cooperate full wet epa to clarify this matter in its entirety. Vws effort to clear the air comes barely a month following public outrage. The American People, the epa and their counterparts around the world have been defrauded by volkswagen. Reporter then the epa found nearly half a million vw vehicles emitting harmful pollutants known to cause smog and asthma. Our company was dishonest, and in my german words we have totally screwed up. Reporter proposed first fine, 18 billion. Now a possible 375 million more. Yeah, that, this laysest spat with the epa could really hurt sales of oughty and pores, brands in the u. S. Which had been unscathed by the scandal. Meanwhile regulators continue to tell car owners of all cars affected they are safe to drive even though they emit high levels of nitrogen oxide. Guys, back to you. Thank you. Former olympic star Oscar Pistorius is facing an appeal by prosecutors who argue today he should have been convicted of murder, not the lesser charge of culpable homicide for killing his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp. He was released last month less than a year into his fiveyear sentence and moved into his uncles mansion for house arrest, but state is the arguing that the trial judge misinterpreted parts of the law and ignored important evidence. A panel of five judges now is hearing this appeal. The number of e. Coli cases link to chipotle restaurants is expected to grow as Health Officials in the popular chain which has closed 43 stores in two states search for the source that have outbreak. Nbc National Correspondent Miguel Almaguer is in portland. Miguel, good morning to you. Reporter hey, matt, good morning. Still unclear when stores here in the Pacific Northwest will reopen, this as customers who have fallen ill have filed lawsuits against chipotle. This morning Health Officials are trying to track down the origins of the chipotle e. Coli outbreak thats already affected 22 people. And while they expect to note source and strain of the outbreak later today with at least one official suggesting the outbreak could have been caused by a contaminated produce. They have also been bracing for even more cases of sick diners in the days ahead. Chris collins is one of the eight who were hospitalized. And this was intense pain that just would never stop. It just wouldnt stop to the point where i couldnt sleep at all. Reporter chipotle says the outbreak may be connected to one of its locations in portland and seattle, but it voluntarily closed 43 restaurants, including all of those in Washington State out of a, quote, abundance of caution. Buying local is a proud part of chipotles business model. Sourcing its ingredients from local farms whenever possible. Were buying great ingredients and making sustainably raise the ingredients available to everybody which is a very important mission. Reporter but this e. Coli outbreak is the third health care in four months for the casual dining chain. In august, almost 100 customers fell ill to the norovirus traced back to a location in Southern California and weeks later a salmonella outbreak that affected dozens of people was linked back to tomatoes served at 22 of its restaurants. Doctors said e. Coli outbreak can cause Serious Health issues. They hope later on today to have a better number on the true scope of those who have been affected by the illness. Matt and savannah, back to you. All right, miguel, thank you very much. There were tense moments on a Spirit Airline in los angeles overnight before the plane even got off the ground. Seven passengers had to be removed from the plane because of a dispute over a seat. The incident was caught on a cell phone camera. Witnesses say the airline overbooked that flight and when one man got to his seat apparently there was someone already in it. The man allegedly argued with the Flight Attendant and refused to be reassigned to another seat prompting the crew to call in the police. As we said, seven passengers were escorted off the plane, accused of being disruptive and inciting other passengers. At least one of them says they were discriminated against for being black. Spirit airlines has not responded to a request for comment. There was plenty of drama meantime during monday night football between the Carolina Panthers and indianapolis colts.

Also this morning, a fraternity at Yale University is in hot water over a claim its members instituted a, quote, white girls only policy at a weekend party. Nbcs Stephanie Gosk is following this story. Good morning to you. Reporter good morning, guys. Well, as University Officials investigate what happened on the night of this party, the president of the Sigma Alpha Epsilon say the only screening at the door is asking for a yale id and one student was rejected because of the color of the skin. Reporter this morning members of the fraternity are defending themselves against allegations of racism after being accused of allowing only white women into a Halloween Party last weekend. A yale student first drew attention to the allegation with a Facebook Post saying in part i would just like to take a moment to give a shoutout to the member of the yales sae chapter who turned away a group of girls from their party last night, explaining that admittance was on a white girls only basis. Students across campus had strong reactions to the Facebook Post. Its absolutely disgusting and deplorable and chant sneer president grant muller denies the accusations, saying it was just before midnight friday when the Police Showed up and told the frat not to let anyone else in. No one can come into the house, its overcrowded, overcapacity and never had anything to do with our entry into our parties ever or entry into being a member of our fraternity. Reporter yale chapter releasing a statement overnight saying white girls only and the sentiment it express nez no way describes our admission policy for social events. Entry into our home was by no means determined by race. The National Chapter says it is still investigating the incident, adding our leadership has zero tolerance for any behaviors or actions that deviate from our values, mission and creed. Its the late accusation of racism against sae. The university of Oklahoma Chapter made headlines last march after a video was released showing members singing a racist chant. The university took swift action, expelling two of the students caught singing and now sae officials quickly closed the chapter. We should point out that the student who first posted on facebook about this incident was not actually part of that group that was allegedly turned away from the party. She claimed in her post that she experienced a similar incident in which she was turned away from an sae party last year. Well continue to follow t. Stephanie, thank you. Meanwhile in ohio today, voters will decide whether to legalize mayor ana in that state. Its a ballot measure gaining National Attention for the wellknown names who could cash in if it passes. Todays erica hill is in hudson, ohio with more on that. Erica, good morning to you. Reporter if this measure known as issue 3 passes ohio would become the fifth state to legalize marijuana and that makes the 29 acres of land behind me a potentially lucrative place for growing pot. Land one ohio native has expressed interest in buying and this morning that has him doing his very best to convince voters to say yes. Im nick lachey. Ohio is my home. The former reality tv and boy band star is hoping to cash in on that connection with voters. In a campaign that has him singing the praises of legalized marijuana. Proud to be part of a movement thats going to create jobs, reinvig rated our economy and improve the safety of our communities. Reporter lachey, along with Fashion Designer nanette la pore and nba great Oscar Robertson is a shawl group of wealthy investors called responsible ohio claiming legalizing pot would create 0,000 jobs in the state and spur a billion dollar market. The catch, the amendment would give exclusive rights to all the marijuana grown and sold in 1,100 stores in the Buckeye State to just ten groups. One is lacheyeths. A good deal for nick lachey and his cronies who would have control over the marijuana monopoly but bad for ohio issue 2 would prevent any constitutional amendment from creating a monopoly. If both pass, there could be a conflict. Most polling shows voters are split on the issue of legalization. I care very deeply about the people here. Reporter with wellfunded proponents like lacheys group doing his best to frame it as a business decision, one that could make them very, very rich. The rich folks are investing a lot of money to not only change the system, create lots of jobs, 30,000 jobs and generate 554 million a year. Reporter nick lachey declined our request for an oncamera interview. The city of hudson, ohio, did confirm this morning to nbc news that this land is zoned for agricultural use. We reached out to the developer and they didnt return our call. Responsible ohio, a group of investors backing this ballot measure did, confirm its looking to invest in this land if in fact it passes, and that would make this site one of those ten sites throughout the state with exclusive commercial growing rights. One other interesting note, matt, nick lachey who did grow up in ohio and is pushing this measure did reveal in a recent interview he wont be voting today and thats because hes still registered in california. All right. Well be following this vote as it unfolds today. Erica, thank you very much. Take a turn and get a check of the weather now from al. Im going to invest in the cheetos franchise in ohio. Anyway, as we take a look, look at this meteor over bangkok, bangkok, thailand, caught on a dashcam, and can you see that thing just firing you, wow. That lights up the sky for just a second or two. What were going to be lighting up is a lot of strong weather coming in, especially once more pushing its way from the plains down into texas. Heavy rain in san antonio, little rock. We are looking for the risk of strong storms for thursday, and then as we move into friday it moves into eastern texas and the midmississippi river valley, mobile north into cincinnati and what they do not need in texas more rain, but look at this, through friday night with rainfall rates up to one and a half inches per hour and 3 to 4 locally and 5 between texas, arkansas, louisiana and good morning.

They are calling a fast food giant to stop a socalled Brand Ambassador from pitching the companys menu to students across the country. Natally is following the story this morning. Think of this as the antisupersized me diet. A High School Biology teacher ate nothing but mcdonalds for 90 days and he actually lost weight. Now he travels the country sharing his story on School Campuses and thats where some parents said teacher and the company are crossing the line. In a crowded High School Auditorium Science Teacher john chrisna is telling students about his unique fast food experiment. Who better to use in this experiment as sun who basically contributes to the data of being overweight, me. The mission, eat every meal for 90 days at mcdonalds and keep the total daily calories to 2,000 or less. The result, he lost 37 pounds, dropped four waist sizes and lowered his cholesterol by a third. He ate 530 meals in a row at mcdonalds and lived featured it. Reporter and now hes featured in a new mcdonalds video and has become an ambassador sharing his stories across schools across the country. Im not endorsing fast food. Im endorsing kids need to make Critical Thinking skills when they make the choices that they eat. Thats not impression one texas mom got what the she watched the video. I was really taken aback by what i saw. She is is a member of a committee that makes nutritional choices for students at more than 300 Public Schools in houston. Schools ought to be a sanctuary where kids can come and learn and not be bombarded by corporate messages, whether they are from mcdonalds or an organic food company. She started a change. Org petition asking mcdonalds to drop the program. More than 55,000 parents have signed it with comments like its a thinly veiled commercial and mcdonalds has no place in education. A mcdonalds spokesperson confirms the appearance at 990 schools in the past year, including one in rochester, minnesota, where this student listened to the presentation. Its a healthy message.

I think the black lives Matter Movement is just an outgrowth of what has been a very long story in american society.

If youre a parent youre probably concerned about how much time your kids are spending on their digital devices. This morning a landmark new report is revealing a answer that will likely add to your worries. Heres nbcs joe fryer. You can call them screen teens. A new study says the average teen spends nine hours a day with media or technology not counting school or Homework Team and tweens averages six hours a day. It shows you kids spend more time with media and technology than they do with tear parents or anything other things. Reporter spend a day with 15yearold jake george youll quickly know that technology follows him as a shaddo. His cell phone is the alarm clock that wakes him and the video game player that entertains him, the tool that keeps him in touch whether in the classroom or at basketball practice. Im normally texting my friends on my phone, maybe on instagram and social media kind of keeping up with whats going on. Reporter for teens music is the top media choice and for tweens its tv. Boys lean towards video games while girls are more likely to embrace social media, although surprisingly only 10 of teens fix social media as their favorite activity. For some its seen as something that they have to do these days. In a little way youre all competing with your friends on who can get the most likes and followers and everything so everyone is always trying to one up each other. Reporter the study also finds while doing homework 76 of teens listen to music, 60 text and 50 are on social networking sites. Twothirds of teens think that they can multitask while doing their homework and they are wrong. Reporter still, experts say this technology is now a way of life so parents must help kids create a healthy media diet by putting devices away from time to time and encouraging more facetoface communication. The George Family has set up rules, no video games after 8 00 p. M. And no technology at the dinner table. Mom and dad also keep a close eye on what jake is doing. Ill just ask him, what are you listening to, whats that video about . Can i hear it out loud. Reporter they also see all the positives of this technology. It helps them keep in touch, stay organized, and when the day is done jake is soothed to sleep by the sounds coming from his tablet, a modern day lullby that symbolizes a new way of life. For today, joe fryer, nbc news los angeles. How much do we all retlit that . Wow, definitely. A 14 yearly, 12yearold and almost 9yearold and we fight this battle every day, and i would say we are losing it at the moment. I have to say, i have a 14monthold, but she sees me on the phone. I feel like im setting a bad example exactly. Parent have to look inward and for this study if for example a child is watching tv for an hour and was texting at the same time, researchers actually counted that as two hours of screen time. You should. Interesting. Coming up next on trending, matts little adventure with the thanksgiving turkey had a lot of you reaching out to him on twitter. Well explain. They were lovely tweets. Plus the start of a new special series 24 hours with. This morning the day in the life this morning the day in the life of a hard working police earning unlimited cash back on purchases. Thats a win. But imagine earning it twice. You can with the citi double cash® card. It lets you earn cash back twice. Once when you buy and again as you pay. Its cash back then cash back again. And thats a cash back winwin. The citi double cash card. The only card that lets you earn cash back twice on every purchase with 1 when you buy and 1 as you pay. With two ways to earn, it makes a lot of other cards seem onesided. Our veterans are all around us, but its hard to show them our appreciation when, out of uniform, theyre more camouflaged than ever.

Because even if we cant see them, they should always be able to see our support. Visit greenlightavet. Com to learn more. After a dvt blood clot. Mind when i got out of the hospital what about my family . My lil buddy . And what if this happened again . I was given warfarin in the hospital but i wondered if this was the right treatment for me. Then my doctor told me about eliquis. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots and reduces the risk of them happening again. Not only does eliquis treat dvt and pe blood clots, but eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. Knowing eliquis had both. Turned around my thinking. Dont stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. If you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily. And it may take longer than usual for 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. Eliquis treats dvt pe blood clots. Plus had less major bleeding. Both made switching to eliquis right for me. Ask your doctor if its right for you. When you take a sip of our Ocean Spray Cranberry juice, its a little like. [ dog barks ] and its also like. [ laughs ] [ engine revs ] but dont take our word for it. Try all of our tasty, goodforyou Ocean Spray Cranberry juices and juice drinks. Its amazing what a little cran can do. 8 13. Lets trend, guys, okay. Were going to play a little game. A lot of studies on Human Behavior in the news today so were going to read you the study and tell you a little bit about it and using the paddles thumbs up or thumbs down. Youre going to vote as to whether you think this works or doesnt work. Okay. Got the rules . I think. Here we go. First, having the birds and bees talk with your children, does it actually make them more responsible when it comes to the choices they make involving sex . Thumbs up yes or thumbs down know. Thumbs up, thumbs up. Have the talk earlier. Yes. Okay. Very good. This is a yes. Having the talk does make kids more responsible and heres an interesting fact. Apparently it works with children more when the moms have the talk with them than with the dad. Go see your father and my dad was in the garage at his work bench listening to the dodgers on an a. M. Radio, gave me a crazy speech but it helped our bond more than anything and i always felt from that moment on i could talk to him about anything. Dads are more honest. Terrible metaphors. This big a wrench. Or this big a wrench. You would go there, carson. Have you had the talk . Ive had the talk a little bit, but i think i have two boys so im also encouraging joe to because a guy to the boys. Zach doesnt want to hear it from me. Talked to annette a little bit. All right. Next up, those calorie counts you see on menus at fast food restaurant. Do they work and do they get people to consume fewer calories . Thumbs up or thumbs down. Carson yes. Savannah yes, natalie no and al yes. The answer is this is as thumbs down. The calorie counts were found to have zero effect on what people ordered. I disagree. You go in a restaurant and you look. And when i see that the scone is like 500 calories, im like oh, forget that. Same thing. Actually no. If its something i wanted when i came in there, im having it anyway. I agree. And i think that people who go to these places they go in there with the idea what have they want. What do you think in. They are going that a fast food restaurant. I i havent had an issue with weight so i dont really Pay Attention to calories. If youre someone would battles weight every day and you see something 630 calories versus 1,100 youre more inclined to go that way and if someone doesnt have a weight issue, and we lie to ourselves, that cooky is 100 or if i find out its 500 i dont have it or eat half. Fans cheering loudly at a sporting event, does that actually affect the outcome in the game . In other words, does the loudest side win, thumbs up or thumbs down. Down, down, yes, yes. In football they are yelling so much they confuse the quarterback and cant get the calls out and it could have an impact on the game. Im thinking they are talking about does it inspire your time to excel and perform better . Yes, yes, no, no. Players are always talking about how inspiring it is and the crowd was with them. Yes, they are. And the answer is no. It doesnt have any effect. Experts say the cheering does not interfere by the way with the performance of players. Didnt work for the mets. Okay. Actually good segue. You gave me a good segue. Can we all agree as much as you love your sports team maybe dont get the celebratory tattoo until your team has actually won. Lifelong mets fan in new jersey should have heeded that message. Hour one before game one of the world series josh got tattoo. The mets logo with world series champion 2015. No regrets and the mets is even good and maybe he can add a little ink next year to 2016. Or 2018, the five. Or just change the 2 to a 3, 3015. Wow. Nice. Carson is all about getting tattoos made into other things, right . Yes. 2016 is going to be the best bet if the youre a mets fan. When you mess up, its right there to let you know how you messed up, so watch this video yesterday. Heres matt handling and having his way with that turkey and then did you see what happened. That was really fast. He didnt wash his hands. Handles the turkey and dips it in there and massagesled turky . Raw turkey. And now is eating with the same hand. Social media caught on to this. Moments later, look at that. Theres the slow mo. What kind of mail do you get from this . I got some beauties, like enjoy salmonella for the next 24 hours, idiot. Hope you dont get sick. We were screaming at the television set. Did you not hear us. You may need psychological counseling to get over this. You did a mea culpa on twitter. I blank the, a brain camp, i dabbed them off on the towel and i did pick up. Did you feel any effect in. Hi some rumbling for the entire afternoon. Say more about that. Everything was fine. I feel great today, but point well taken. Even the worlds best chefs have been known to do this. Exactly. You dont do that. Wash your hands after you handle raw poultry of any, any kind. Unless you want to lose ten pounds in a hurry. Exactly. Now to what you cant bring to the new star wars movie and the halloween prank that has parents laughing and kids in tears. Carson, pop start. Hello, everybody. Im your father. First star wars when hits movie theaters next month you can bring the force with you but no props. Theater chains around the country are banning them to keep fans safe and secure. One of the signs posted. Look at the bottom, star wars costumes are welcome no face conversation or face paint or simulated weapons including light sabers or blasters will be allowed in the building so leave them at home, al roker, now the annual prank that goes viral from jimmy kimmel with parents telling their children that they ate all their kids halloween candy which leaves their kids devastated. No candy, you are in big trouble, young lady. That is totally jimmy kimmel related and i know. I ate all your candy, all your halloween candy. Thats all right. Thats all right. Yeah. So youre not mad at mom are or anything. I dont ever want to see you ever again. Go get a job. Go get a job. That is the pop start for today, guys. Thats awesome. Never stop doing that, jimmy. Al, lets get a check o good morning. Im meteorologist bill henley. Temperatures will range from 70 to 73 today. Dropping back into the 40s tomorrow morning. Even warmer tomorrow afternoon with brilliant sunshine for wednesday. Its thursday well see clouds move in with a chance of scattered light showers, then a warmup on friday before cooler air arrives for the weekend. Have a great day. And thats your latest weather. Savannah. All right, al. Thanks. Were beginning the new series this morning 24 hours with, an indepth look of the lives of people who in their own ways really make up the fabric of our country. Great story. National correspondent craig melvin will find some remarkable people. First up a man with the last two decades who has honored his pledge to protect and serve. A pledge that rick mauer takes very seriously at at time when Police Officers all over this country are under great scrutiny and a great risk. Its hard for him to imagine doing anything else. Cleveland is ohios largest city, home to the rock n roll hall of fame and according to the fbi its one of the most dangerous places in america. Were just outside cleveland, ohio. Rick mauer has been a Police Officer with the city of cleveland for more than 20 years now. Today we go on patrol with him. Rick mauer starts his day at 5 32 a. M. Making breakfast for his wife val. When he leaves for work in the morning how much do you worry it is. I always worry about him and hope that hes safe and comes home to me. Reporter at 7 15 he hits the gym, at 54 rick is in better shape than most men half his age. Afterwards he heads to the Police Station and suits up. All right, guys. Reporter roll call is at 10 00. Be safe, be tactful. Reporter rick straps on his body camera which officers in cleveland started wearing a few months ago and then we hit the streets. Do you typically feel fairly safe . Probably the least safe ive felt in my life as far as just being a target, but just because, you know, the uniformed badge that i wear, what i represent, some people resent that. Reporter when youre out and youre actually talking to people, do you get that sense as well . Oh, no. Man, theres still a ton of great people out here. Reporter this part of cleveland has seen better days. At 11 17 rick gets his first call, a woman claims her son got into a heated argument with his girlfriend and then ran off when she called the police. You didnt see any type of physical confrontation, anybody injured or anything . Reporter after taking information to file a report, were on the move again, but within minutes rick is hailed down. My car was shot up with a bb gun. Reporter man claims the same person who shot his car with the bb gun may be targeting people, too. All we need is the police in this area. Reporter to be a little more vigilant patrolling. How often are you flagged down like that . Less than half an hour later it happens again. I dont know whats going on. This guy is doing some crazy stuff g. Check him out a. Well check it out. Reporter rick pulls over a man driving with a suspended license. In situations like this do you get nervous at all . Oh, sure. Reporter he remembers a friend killed in 2000 during a traffic stop just like this one. First partner who trained me on the job, who i looked up to, admired, respect, great person, wayne lyon was killed in the line of duety. That danger, rick says, must be met with restraint. How many times have you had to use your gun in. Theres been two instances in my career where i had to use my gun, firearm. Reporter twice in 20 years isnt awful . No, i would like to say no time in 20 years, but doing what youre trained to do almost comes Second Nature when youre in that situation, but the hard part is living with it. Reporter at 1 15 rick starts his second assignment whats known as communitybased policing. He spends several hours at a public recreational center. Whats going on . Oh, you look so nice. Reporter how his policing changed since you started 20 years ago. Before i think we tried to arrest our way out of problem and obviously that hasnt worked so we need to find alternatives to that. Reporter policing in cleveland has been under especially intense scrutiny since the shooting of tamir rice, a cleveland Police Officer shot and killed a 12yearold after he was seen brandishing what turned out to be a pellet gun. Two independent investigations concluded the officers response was reasonable given the circumstances. So far no charges have been filed. Rick and the Cleveland Police department declined to talk about the specifics of that case. There have been some highprofile incidents in this city. How has that impacted your job. People have biasses and then one incident occurs and that just confirmed their bias so it makes our work even that much harder for us to regain their trust. Reporter how do you rebuild that trust . When i come here, if i could change one persons understanding of im the person just like they are. Reporter at 5 41 p. M. Rick heads downtown to work off duty doing security for the cleveland cavaliers. His long day ends after the preseason game. The next morning, theres breakfast to be made before rick spends another day trying to win over hearts and minds in his hometown. So heres the thing. Rick mauer, you know, hes a guy who has been on the force 0 years, his dad also served as well. You would not believe how seriousl good morning. Im tracy davidson. It is election day.

Now lets head back to savannah. All right, al, thank you so much. Neil Patrick Harris has been showing us the best time ever with his live primetime show here on nbc and from what we hear tonights Season Finale is going to be the biggest best show yet. Well talk about that, but first a little look at the fun hes had this season. I know you guys got married. Take a look. Thats your dad . Help me out. Lie and cheat. The youre right the little understated show. Subtle comedy. Good morning to you. Good morning to you as well, thanks. Are you ready for the big finale . All ends tonight, the circus packs up and we move to another town. The freak show is out of here. And we can go to physical therapy. Can you give us any hints . Its its a giant show this week. We have an audience that we call it where were surprising someone in the audience. Its more of an awards show kind of structure. We have a big gigantic get lucky. Were giving away more stuff than we ever have, if you answer questions right and the end of the show show where we do crazy stuff is jie normous. Im not sure can i do it. Ive had melt pal meltdowns in the last 36 hours, i wont lie. Ive gotten to i have to say ive gotten to know you and you seem a little stressed. Doing a song that wraps up the entire season and it encompasses everything weve done and a one long shot that doesnt edit so if things go wrong it will be disastrous and little airous. And still super . Im very proud of the show. You do it once and its done the feels like doing an awards show every week and then you wake up the next day and have to do an awards show the following week. The show is fun. We sought highlight reel. Its crazy. Any standout moments for you . I Love Learning stuff so the First Episode i did a stunt off a pogo stick and learned how to breathe fire. Oh, look at you. Watch this one. I almost broke my collar bone there. My mom was on the show and i surprised her. She had no idea. That really fun. Its cool. Were doing it live so we really only reassess it afterwards. The first eight episodes this season were going to look back and see how to improve it and what what were the best elements of it, and i think the notion that families can watch it together, mott just kids with their parents, but parents with their parents, its kind of a nice show that sort of bonds people together so im proud of what weve done. Yeah. Would you do it again . Yeah. But i wouldnt prank you guys. I was going to bring it up and im glad you segued to us. Remember that time in. Do i ever. You wont let me forget that time. We dont. Roll the video. I mean you know who is good about that. I didnt really get a bad of a prank. It was really matt who got covered in this smelly goo. Isnt that really appropriate . It is. Can you tell me now at end. Season what was in that goo. I dont know and we had a lot of goo discussion. It smelled like socks and underwear. The intention was not to the make him smell bad and cover him with a weird color. But it did. I wanted to actually know what that stuff was, in the story of it all, was that numtic fluid it a had broken, we didnt know, it just kind of became what it was. Can i tell you something. We did that a couple months ago, the odor is really still kind of there. Hasnt washed off of him. The reason i did it with matt is hes apparently the one here thats always checking things out and thinking he might get pranked. He is. And doesnt really like the germs. He sglont so we tried to fill him with prank and with yeah, with germs. Dont look at me. Well, youre hiding in the corner and i feel like youll run out and throw something at me. Filled with revenge. Are you nervous at all . Its carpkarma, isnt it. Food taster. What does that mean . I may go after your food supply. At least youre inviting me to dinner. Neil Patrick Harris, thank you so much. Youre welcome. And the best time ever finale starts tonight at 8 00, 7 00 central right here hon nbc. Good luck. Dont broke anything. Coming up, tom brokaw on an issue close to his heart, but, first, this is today on nbc. Our friend and colleague tom brokaw is here to focus on an issue he cares deeply about, alzheimers disease. One in nine people, 67 and older has it. Thats 5 million americans, and the number is only expected to grow as the baby boom generation ages. One organization on the front lines is the Fisher Center at Rockefeller University. Their message of hope on display on this window outside our studio for the month of november, alzheimers awareness month. Howard lutnick, ceo and chairman of Cantor Fitzgerald leads the boarded a the center and dr. Mark flogolet is on the board and head of research. Good morning. Everybody thinks they know about it until it affects them personally and then they see a different side of it. It happened to you. As much as i was tuned into it it was an an centraly artery until it hit our family. A younger brother who was living in denver, well away from the rest of the family, had some reverses in his personal and Business Life and so we were not as connected to him as we probably should have been. My mother at age 92 was beginning to fade so we were gathering at her bedside and he would tell stories and couldnt the guy figure out what was going on. And our eldest daughter is a physician and she figured it out and confirmed him to go to denver and he had onset of alzheimers and then it went very quickly. Hour, obviously the search for a cure is paramount but i know at the Fisher Center you work with supporting people who are living with the disease and People Living with the People Living with the disease. So it goes two ways. You want to do Core Research so eventually you can knock it out and, you know, dr. Greengard who found theed the Fisher Center and i had the honor of giving him the nobel prize and it was amazing and then we have to worry about the people who tear care of it so huge, 200 billion a year we spend on taking care of alzheimers patients. Its unbelievable. Where does the search, doctor for a cure and root cause stand right now . Where do casts stand. Right now its billions and were thinking it will reach 2. 3 trillion by 2050 if nothing changed. What do you know about the root cause . The root cause is really hard to guesstimate because most of the cost is coming from the family support. No, the cause, the cause of the disease . The cause of the disease is still not entirely clear but theres a few ways, you probably heard about the plaque. There is a debate about the way the neurons come inside the brain and this is going slowly from shortterm memory loss. Its a plaque that gets in between the cells of the brain and like on your teeth, its a plaque and then they cant communicate and you lieutenants ability to really get your thoughts around. Do you feel, tom, that in our lifetime thereto will be a cure for this disease . Its a tough one. Theres a lot of Research Going on, especially at the Rockefeller University and around the country, but i think families when they get into the late 50s, mid60s have to sit down and assign roles. My daughter jennifer feels very strongly about that. Too much of the caregiving is left to the women who have kind of a ma terrible instinct. They give up their jobs, their lives and sit at the beth bedside and do all that so families have to start planning now and hope that it will never come, but if it does Everybody Knows what their role is. In our case we had bill in a distant city and hired a very good advocate for him who can be there and give us an alert and then we rotated family members through visitations with him, and and it was heartbreaking but in many ways the last month of his life were in some ways some of the best months. We should concentrate on this all the time but we concentrated especially during november which is national alzheimers awareness month. Guys, thank you appreciate it and good luck, doctor. Thank you.

Nice to see you. Hey, matt. Not just sports back but they are wellrounded and you tackle some very tough issues. Of all the things ive asked kids to overcome in my books i dont think ive ever asked anybody to overcome more than this young boy. 12 years old, lost his mother, like the artful dodger, living on his own fooling the school, fooling everybody and even stealing food to keep going, but as basketball season starts he needs a new pair of sneakers and tries to steal a pair at a footlocker and ends up in Child Protective Services but he doesnt know it at the time but its the beginning of a better life. And goes on to live with a foster family across town, and in some ways heres where we get into a reverse blind side, the movie. This is a white kid from the wrong sides of the track who ends up living with an affluent africanamerican family. People made that reference and i never thought of it that way. The amazing thing about the boy is hes being pulled back to the projects. The only happy time in his childhood has been playing basketball with his buddies in this core at a project called the jeff, and the Culture Shock of moving to the right side of the tracks makes him actually angry at start of this book. I like it because it does, again, it deals wish use that all kids and all parents are dealing, not just sports. When i have you here i like to get your take on other event. Okay. Can do i that. Call this the lightning round, world series just ended. Great for the royals. Will the mets be back in the fall classic next year . Yes, i think they will be because of the young pitching and by the way i would have left harvey in the game myself the other night. All right. After all the talk about deflategate and the pressure it put on the patriots and tom brady, hes killing it this year. They are undefeated. Do you see a loss in their near future . You know what, ill tell you something. The only thing that makes me think they might not go undefeated is seating broncos the other night and what they did to the packers on sunday night football. This is one of the great grudge tours of all time. They are going to show everybody, the patriots are.

And youve signed on to write a memoir with bob costas. This is short storeies . No, actually i tried to encourage costas to write i waited all morning for that. I tried to explain to costas that maybe he should write my story, but we thought this would be a more profitable way to go. Thats a good one. All about the questions. When your friend bob costas, talked about red eye at olympics. I remember vaguely. Michael, congratulations. The book is called fast break out today.

Lets get right to it. Ill make an anal walnut cake and apples in a savory way. Heres our ingreed yentsd. Lots of thanksgiving fall flavors with brown sugar, maple syrup, nutmeg, cinnamon, ginger. Yummy. What i like to do is take a nice pan because it makes it decorative and make it in anything. Make sure you brush it with melt the butter really well. You dont need a bundt pan. Dont but look how pretty it is. Dusted it with flour, dust upside down and get all the extra flour out. Pan is done. You do the wet ingredients and ill doled dry. Add the wine, just kidding.

Three apples, and i just did all the dry ingreen yentsd of flour, baking soda and baking powder and cinnamon and nutmeg. I cubed the apples. You cbreak up the eggs with whisk. Should have prebroken the eggs. This is a hot mess but if i had thought that would are been better. All good because it all works itself out. Lets pretend this is right. Thats what great about the cakes. The key here is to dump a little bit of the dry ingredients. I love it. You dont need to use utensils but this could be a lot more fun. Im stirring it very well. A little bit at a time and add the dry ingredients until the wet ingredients absorb it. Are you going to finish this on the 9 00 hour . Like a dog or cat covering in the kitty litter. Okay. You get the point. Giada is being very kind, savannah. Doing great and shows you can do it any way you want. Doing great. Are you number in the same universe as we are.

The walnuts. This is what it looks like, threat rest 15 minutes before you unmold, it okay, and then like that and i have a nice sort of you can do this, cream cheese. And just drizzle. Or dump.

Tamron is on assignment. My morning jam, lets listen tore a second. This is my shot from the hamilton, the musical. If you havent seen it yet, i know its a tough ticket, try to get some. Come sometime to new york city and see it. Talked about this. Finally got to see it a couple weeks ago, and ive got to say, its one of those shows everybody bulked it up so much, so much hype and i said can it really be and it really is as good as everybody says it is. Just incredible. You can download the album now to get ready for when you come see it on itunes. Thats probably the best way because when you actually first see it it takes almost five minutes i think to kind of acclimate your ears to the rhythm and everything thats going on because you are not ready for it. Thats how uneekt show is. Its genius. Recall berets way you watch musicals. A great song. It is election day. One year, 52 weeks from today, we will elect a new president of the united states. Weve got new last night nbc news wall street journal poll to show you where we stand a year out. Ben corson is up seven points from a couple weeks ago, at 29 six points ahead of trump. Lets put this the in perspective. Okay. Go back eight years in a 2007 poll in the election, heres how the republican field sat. Rudy giuliani was at 33 and john mccain at 16 . We know how that turned out. John mccain would go on. Dont know where this race is headed but gives you a little bit of pause to show you how much things can change. On the democratic side this morning Hillary Clinton leading 62 to Bernie Sanders 31 . Shes up 30 points now, leaped a bit since the last poll and lets go back with the democrats, eight years ago, 2007, this same time. Hillary clinton at 47 and senator barack obama at 25 . How did she do back then . That one got away from her. Cant remember. Puts it all in perspective how much can change in a years time. Exactly. As much as we look at these polls on practically a daily basis, a new poll is out and everything can change on a dime. Absolutely. Fascinating new characters this time between Bernie Sanders and donald trump and ben carson so interesting to watch the next few months. Mentioned hamilton and politics and all came together last night. President obama got some laughs at a speech in new york. He was in the theater where they where they performed hamilton poke fun at republican candidates and their complaints about recent debates. Every one of these candidates say, you know, obamas weak. Hes, you know, putin is kicking sand in his face. When i talk to putin hes going to straighten out. Just looking at them im going hes going to be and then it turns out they cant handle a bunch of cnbc moderators. If you cant handle those guys, you know then i dont think that the chinese and the russians are going to be too worried about you. There you go. Just a side note. Yesterday we were going to a meeting at niks school in brooklyn and going sobt on the fdr. They had shut off the northbound lanes and the president ial motorcade came by on his way to the theater, and ive got to tell you to see the president ial motorca motorcade, if youve never seen, it its an amazing sight. All the new york city police, motorcycles and then the cars and the suvs and then you see the president ial limo, thats pretty cool. Pretty cool and the president was doing fundraisers last night including the one on broadway there in the theater where they do hamilton. Had the speech in newark earlier as well. Heres something, caught our attention and reported on this earlier this morning. An iowa High School Biology teacher john cisna ate nothing but mcdonalds for 90 days and actually lost weight, the antisupersize me campaign, ate every meal for 90 days at mcdonalds, 540 meals in a row, and he kept his daily calories to 2,000 calories or less and he was able to drop 37 pounds and four waist sizes and lowered his total cholesterol by a third. So now hes traveling around the country sharing his story at schools as mcdonalds Brand Ambassador, all right, but heres the issue. Some parents say that this biology teacher and the company, they are crossing the line and some saying its a thinly veiled commercial for mcdonalds. You know, we actually did a story on the Science Teacher last year, and he told us he walks 45 minutes a day. His overall argument for doing this is we have an obesity epidemic in this country, and he is encouraging kids, he says, if they are eating fast food anyway because, lets be real, kids are going to eat fast food, you know, hes encouraging them to make the right choices can and choose the right foods and right combinations under those 2,000 calories a day. That said, a lot of people saying well youre a brand spokesperson, hes getting paid to go, to travel. And when he did it the food was donated so how much would that have cost her day to do . I think the good news on the progress, not just for mcdonalds is you can go into one of the fast food restaurants now and get a relatively healthy meal. Get a sal rad. Calorie sound and sodium amounts and you can make the right choices. Our kids get hit with brands from the second they wake up at night until the second they go to sleep, do they need to at an Educational Institute to get a paid spokesman . Thats right on the line there. Yeah. Can you talk about like lets make healthy choices but i dont think you need to say mcdonalds, if youre going to choose on the men, choose this versus this. Heres something, people have made a choice, and a huge choice, so heres a question. What do these two songs have in common . First, lets listen to if lo rider when i hear that song. Adeles new single hello releases. Thats a slow ballad, slow dance. Get goose bumps every time i hear this song. Heres the deal. Hello has joust broken flo riders record to sell over 1 million downloads of a song in one week. According to billboard adele 1. 11 millions copies of hello and in 2006 flo rider sold 636,000 copies. Adele performing live on november 25. Week before on tuesday, november 17th, going to be doing a onenight only concert at radio city which coincidently will be taped and played on nbc as a special which we are very excited about. And i love, as i said before, reward for raw talent. My gosh. If youre that good, stand on a stage with a microphone and nothing else and a million downloads. I cant wait to heart other songs on that album. I went on itunes yesterday, and im like when is it available because that one song is just so incredible you can imagine the rest. And shes a giant in the music world and a giant in the tree world, of course, the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree. They have chosen it, a 78foot Hudson Valley norway spruce. It will be Rockefeller Centers Christmas Tree and it will get cut down tomorrow. Arrives here friday. Does it seem too soon . Never too soon. You know me. Mr. Christmas. Weighs ten tons, coming from ultser county new york. Are you going to ride in the truck and the whole thing . Ill be in hawaii for the first stop of rokerthon 2. Savannah can. The last couple of years weve all ridden. Covered in the sap later. Dont talk about willie like that. Covered in sap. Got a check of the weather. I certainly do. Smells like pine. I like it. Well, as we look right now weve got some heavier showers and thunderstorms off the southeastern atlantic coast. Wet weather making its way through california and snows in the mountains and cascades. The inner Mountain Region and on into the rockies. Later today as we move on through the week, afternoon highs 80s us a get into texas and look at how warm it is through the midsection of the country and into the northeast. A swath of 70s, although cooler in the Midatlantic States where it will be raining and where well seat showers and thunderstorms. We also look for a lot of fog, about 30 Million People under some sort of fog advisory this morning, snow through the good morning. Im meteorologist bill henley. Chilly start this morning. Youll need your jacket. During the day today, sunglasses. Bright, sunny skies. Mild temperatures. Highs will range from 70 to 73 degrees today. Tonight, it gets chilly. Dropping back into the 40s tomorrow morning. Look at that. Even warmer tomorrow afternoon with brilliant sunshine for wednesday.

That is what i do this for. I know i cant wait for this month, a month away from the big nbc threehour Television Show the wiz live based on the Broadway Musical which hit the stage 40 years ago which showed Stephanie Mills as dorothy, the kansas farm girl swept up in a tornado only to find herself in the land of oz. Then for the 1978 movie version, the great diana ross stepped into that role, but its a brand new day. We want to meet the young woman taking over the iconic role now, 19yearold jersey girl Shanice Williams landing the part leading an allstar cast including actor and neo and the very brave David Allen Greer plight cowardly lion and elijah kelly playing scarecrow. Good morning to all of you. Good morning. Good morning. So the count is on. Youve got a month to go. How has it been going in. It feels great. Its been going really quickly. You werent even born yet, 40 years ago, but you loved this show. Yeah. And you have spent i imagine youre pinching yourself every day to be able to play this role. Yeah, definitely. And you got to the meet got to the meet Stephanie Mills. Shes an amazing person, the southwest and gives meet best advice. Like what . What has she told you . Tells me to just live in the moment and take everything one step at a time. You being the tin man, whats that like, putting on that makeup and wearing that outfit . The costume definitely helps because theres not a lot of range of motion in that thing so it it adds to the whole tin man thing, you know what i mean. But being part of the show has to be such a great experience. This is historic. Making history right now. When i found out that this was happening i told my people, i dont care if im in Kraft Services i need to be a part of this and they got it the to go and here we are. David, youve done so much, but here theres going to be a live show. Yes. Doing a broadway classic. Yes. Got butterflies . Good butterflies, you know. Neyo, theres good and bad butterflies.

I love this company and were having a ball. I cant get to work early enough. Im enjoying the experience. Elijah, a little pressure on you knowing that you stepped into a role that Michael Jackson immortalize the. Who is that . You know what. It is i dont take it as pressure. I just take it as a responsibility to honor, you know, a great actor, great singer and dancer, one of the greatest entertainers of all time and, you know, with these incredible castmates and our team i think that collectively we can do that, so, you know, got a little bit of weight off my shoulder because i get to lean on these guys, but i think ill honor them pretty well. And weve got some behindthescenes footage. You guys are rehearsing the song brand new day. From the video of the making of the wiz. Is this the first time youve seen this . You guys sound good. Cant you feel a brand new day got your moves. Were all there looking.

Military satellite detected a heat flash over the sinai desert in egypt at the same time a jet crashed over the weekend. All 224 people aboard the plane were kill.

And that is your latest weather. Come on in. Actress, producer and director lucy liu has appeared in more than like a Warner Brothers cartoon. Im sorry. Where am i . Most memorable roles was the vicious lynn wu on the hit drama alley mcbeal and cast as a Charlie Angels and then went head to head with uma thurman in kill bill. And now shes solving crimes on the tv series elementary and when sherlock tells her the pair is no longer to consult for the nypd dr. Watson sticks by sherlocks side. Check it out. When it comes to what we do, the only thing that matters to me is our partnership, so you go, i go. You offered me a job. I didnt take it to work with the police. I took it to work with you. Well, you should know that my detractors are not limit the to the nypd. My professional prospects are quite bleak in general. Well figure it out. We always do. There it is. Lucy liu, good morning. Good morning. Now its settled, the chaos is over. So good to have you with us. People know the fundamental story behind the relationship but this is a totally new spin on it over the last four seasons. How are sherlock and watson getting along these days . I think that their relationship finally has come to a very even sort of foundation where shes not his champion and not constantly try to help him and hes not trying to sort of poke at her in that way and trying to get her to Say Something thats negative and they are not just partners now but they are really friends, so it was her suggestion at end of season three to move back in which i think really has been helpful. I dont know. Its going to be wonderful because this year were also introducing his father who we talk about a lot and the havent actually seen before and seeing a family dynamic always adds an element of surprise, and i think in some ways comedy because people interact with their families is always very funny, mott for that person necessarily but for the audience the Fourth Season though, i mean, this is resonating so well with viewers. Why do you think that is . I think that honestly arthur conan doile wrote something and wrote characters that were so rich and colorful that theres always something to draw on and i think thats why theres so many incarnations of Sherlock Holmes and people ren gaged, people that are fans and people that are curious about what did they do, and i thinked modernizing that idea is always going work. And youve also directed a few episodes. Does that exercise different muscles for you in doing Something Like that . Absolutely. Its such an amazing thing to engage with the people that you work with on a daily basis, but behind the scenes, because you really get to become more intimate with them and then its a different sort of creativity, too, because its not just this microcosm of im going to show up and act and do my lines and ill interview with people, hits say. Youll do everything behind the scenes and you get to see, you know, how much work goes into even clearing a name or putting, you know, something on a paper, you know. Its really involved, and the i think it really gives you a better idea how things are done and how things are produced and created from a seed. Can we just say congratulations because we understand youre a new mom too. You have a little son, rockwell. Yes. He is 68 days old. 68 days. Youre down to the day and the hours, right .

Shiping the light on a group of Airline Workers going out of their way for special passengers. With priceless cargo and changing lives when they land. If it looks like this flight has gone to the dogs, youre not mistaken. These labs are all boarding a special plane with you a unique purse. Truth is this only looks like an airplane, but its firmly planted on the ground where two dozen American Airlines employees are gearing up to learn how to fly with mans best friend. I love animals and i fly quite a bit so i figured why not parrot two together. For the Flight Attendants and the Airline Workers travel is their day job, but their passengers are all vips who have november flown, soon to be head for new homes around the country, where they will work as service dogs for veterans. To be able to transport a puppy from one destination to another. They are volunteering their time and flight privileges to transport service dogs to people in need. There we go. Good boy. That is perfect. Learning how to walk the walk and talk the talk. And then you say lets go and start walking that way. With the latest class american now has 100 employees as part of its puppies in Flight Program and plans to transport more than 200 dogs this year. A lot of people love puppies and dogs and they love to see them on the plane, but its more than just that. I think that they feel the importance and the urgency of getting this puppy transported to where they need to go. Push. Service dogs generally spend 18 months in a program like patriot paws where they receive a remarkable and expensive education. This dog has learned how to use his nose to open a door, pick up a phone and bring it to its owner and use his mouth to open the fridge and pick out a water bottle but this pup has one more training hurdle. He needs to learn how to fly. Trainers need to train the dogs to do whatever the veterans will do, so if the veterans travel and get on airplanes, then our dogs need to know how to get on planes. He arrives at dallasfort Worth Airport where he meets Flight Attendant Sharon Johnston who has volunteered to take him on a training flight to los angeles. Just like other passengers he goes through security and passes time roaming around the terminal, even stopping for a potty break before boarding. Welcome to flight 2485. Once on the plane, he settles in for threethour flight. He gets a little nervous during his first takeoff. After that its smooth sailing under touchdown. Passengers, everybody comes up and says bless you for what youre doing and im like im playing with a dog, but it does make me feel good. Johnston has done more than 100 of these puppy flights which are free to the service dog organization. The flying is fun, but the feelgood comes from moments like these. Ive handed one over to one of our young veterans who has come in and had ptsd and his mom said that was pretty much their last hope and within a week he was a changed person, and ive had two that ive handed off to children with autism. John obriens service dog was flown from florida to new york, a 28year army veteran, he was injured in a rocket attack during his fourth tour in the middle east. Obrien was awar the the purple heart and bronze star, but the puppy he received from americas vet dog changed his life. Getting quinn, the physical help that he gives me is fantastic and i think the emotional help that he provides, you just cant beat it. Now home in rhode island quinn helps obrien move around his house and gives him encourage to embark on a new journey. So great. It can cost as much as 35,000 to train a service dog, so the money these organizations save with free puppy flights allows them to train more dogs and to help more people. Were back in a moment.
