Nice to have you along with us on a thursday morning and a lot to get to, including that powerful display of unity in the wake of that violence in virginia. Overnight in charlottesville. Complete coverage and well start in charlottesville this morning with nbcs Gabe Gutierrez who was there. Gabe, good morning to you. Reporter good morning. The vigil not widely publicized as to not attract unwanted attention from White Nationalist groups. But word spread and the response was overwhelming to honor heather heyer. By candlelight they came on the university of virginia campus, a solemn vigil as charlottesville came to grips with last weeks violence. A slowmoving mass of people gallering peacefully over ground that hundreds of torch carry White Nationalists had taken just days ago. Those who attended singing spiritual songs and sharing messages of healing and stren h strength. This the community, the community they attacked. The Community Rising up to show who we are. 26yearold Marcus Martin was injured after pushing his fiancee out of harms way when the Dodge Challenger plowed into counterprotesters. Martins sister said he suffered broken bones and is scheduled for surgery on friday. Its a healing process. Its going to take some time. Reporter earlier thursday a memorial for heather heyer, the woman killed in the car crash. It will be all right. Reporter her mother, susan bro with a tribute. Tremendous tried to shut her up. Guess what, you just magnified her. Reporter the grieving parent with a message of unity, equality. I want this to spread. I dont want this to die. This is just the beginning of heathers legacy. Her words, a call to action. If youre not outraged, youre not paying attention. And i want you to pay attention, find whats wrong. Dont ignore it, dont look the other way. You make a point to look at it and say to your self, what can i do to take a difference. Thats how youre doing to make my childs death worthwhile. Reporter heathers mother went on to say, quote, if ive got to give her up, make it count. A public memorial is now scheduled for the two state troopers that were killed over the weekend in a helicopter crash. Also virginias Governor Terry mcauliffe is urging local officials in the state to remove confederate monuments. Back to you guys. All right. Gabe gutierrez, thank you. President trump is dealing with fresh fallout over his controversial comments about the violence in virginia. This morning more lawmakers and Business Leaders are distancing themselves from the president. Nbc White House CorrespondentKristen Welker has that part of the story. Kristen, good morning to you. Hi, matt. Good morning to you. President trump defiant and unapologetic this morning taking aim at one of his republican critics tweeting this morning publicity seeking Lindsey Graham falsely stated i said there is moral equivalency between kkk, neonazis and White Supremacists and people like heather heyer, such a disgusting lie. He cant forget his election trouncing. The people of South Carolina will remember. But the backlash is growing this morning and could hit at the very heart of mr. Trumps presidency. This morning from Corporate Board rooms to congress, President Trump facing growing outrage over his response to the violence in charlottesville, following a flood of resignations from ceos on two white house Business Councils the president preemptively dissolving the groups rather than the members did tweeting rather than putting pressure on members of the council and strategy forum, i am ending both. Eight business and labor leaders had already announced they were quitting the groups because of the president s controversial comments comparing White Supremacists with counterprotesters. You have some very bad people in that group. But you also had that were very fine people on both sides. Ceos writing intolerance, racism and violence have absolutely no place in this country. Overnight apple ceo tim cook also weighing in an email to employees he slammed the president s position and announced apple would donate 2 million to groups working to rid our country of hate. A stunning rebuke from mr. Trump who touted his business expertise during the campaign. I will be the greatest jobs president that god ever created. I tell you that. Reporter all this as the political drum beat against the president gets louder, many republicans distancing themselves. The president speaks for himself. Both president s bush releasing a rare joint statement saying america must also reject racial bigotry, antisim tichl and hatred in all forms. Vice president mike pence on defense. The president has been clear on this tragedy and so have i. The attorney general speaking out against hate but not his boss. In no way can we accept, apologize for racism, bigotry, hatred, violence. Meanwhile this morning new scrutiny of the president s inner circle. In an interview with the american prospect embattled top adviser steve bannon describing the White Supremacists in charlottesville, its a fringe element. I think the media plays it up too much and we gotta help crush it, you know, help crush it more. These guys are a collection of clowns. Bannon also discussed his plans to neutralize opponents including ptop officials to President Trump who disagree saying those adversaries are there. An email from a conspiracy theorist to conservative journalist. Government officials and friends with the subject line, the information that value dates President Trump on charlottesville. The email equates confederate general robert e. Lee and George Washington and a little that black lives matter has been infiltrated by terrorists. No response yet to that from the white house or mr. Doud. One more headline from the steve bannon interview, he had this to say about democrats. The democrats the longer they talk about identity politics i got them. I want them to to talk about it every day. If they are talking race, we go with this, we can crush them. Kristen, thank you very much. Chuck todd and Stephanie Ruhle here. Thank you for being here. I want to start with stephanie. The president has been in politics very long. Obviously a learning curve there. He likes to tout his success in business. When have you Business Leaders walking away from Councils Like this. When have you people like tim cook and jamie dimon rebuking and speaking out against him, in some ways might this send a stronger message to him than when politicians speak out. Think about the irony jamie dimon, the financial industry, this was the most hated industry in america just a few years ago and now they are setting a bar in terms of moral leadership. This is a huge, embarrassing blow for President Trump and jared and ivanka to led this council. Are they setting a bar or grandstanding. Have you to wonder down the road if and when President Trump gets around to dealing with things like deregulation and tax reform, are these same people going to be right on board . They arent afraid of President Trump anymore. At this point hes said so much but done so little and hes so far away from the agenda. Jamie dimon says walk away from him, strapped to make money deregulation, tax cuts but at some point enough is enough. Not just this week. They had to deal with the travel ban, immigration policy, paris accords. They want to go back to work. They are tired of hearing about this. Biggest fallout big business. What about the political fallout. Did you expect it to be more . Did you expect resignations . Do you think theres more to come . I think its possible theres more to come. If youre john kelly youre relieved you made it 24 hours without some highprofile resignation. There was some hints but none of that came to fruition. The republicans its fascinating to watch Republican Leaders here. On the one hand they are very uncomfortable. On the other hand they are not sure if they speak out, they are not sure how the base is going to react to them. They are still making a political calculation with the president. Wrong they are making a calculation thats beyond their own politics right now. That could change but right now thats where they shall. Steve bannon has always been a part of this story kind of weaving in and out. Now he seems to be waging war inside the west wing and now the press. Where is is it headed . This interview with the american prospect its hard to believe a former Media Executive doesnt know hes on the record. Lets set that aside. He doesnt deny he was on the record but he said i didnt know he was going to quote me. The stuff he says about north korea saying the president is simply bluffing, that is going to really irritate the National Security team. However, steve bannon is also speaking to the president. What hes saying on charlottesville and what hes saying on, hey, youve got them n now. You think this was a terrible moment for the presidency, i think this was a defining moment he says. I think its an interesting dare to the president here. The National Security folks want him out. National security adviser, secretary of state, they want him out, john kelly may want him out but does the president. Does the president want to throw him overboard and risk alienation with his base. I think bannon is daring the showdown in this white house. He worries what bannon could do on the outside once he returns to the media. Thats for sure. Chuck and stephanie, thank you very much. Much to talk about in the headlines including a desperate search under way for five crew members under way on an Army Helicopter that went down off the coast of hawaii. Two black hawk crews training exercises tuesday night when visual and radio contact with one of the helicopters was suddenly lost. Search and rescue crews found pieces of fuselage and helmet in debris field off the coast of oahu. The army notified families. Show you dramatic video of a brazen jewelry heist wednesday in west london. You can see six robbers armed with sledgehammers exiting the jewelry store, jufrg on their mopeds and speeding away.

Its now skyrocketed to 510 million. The next drawing saturday night. Buy it in 44 states plus washington, d. C. , puerto rico and u. S. Verge islands. A story that broke overnight, hbo fallen victim to another hack attack. The target its twitter account. Kelly cobiella has the latest on this. What happened . Reporter first the massive hack last week, scripts, company data stolen, now another big Cyber Security headaches for hbo. Hbo reeling from another heart attack hack attack. Tape over. The hijacker hijacking hbo, hbo now, last week tonight with john oliver and game of thrones. Also compromised the game of thrones facebook page. In its post in our mind hbo asked to contact the group which was also responsible for highprofile hacks of facebook ceo mark zuckerberg. Hbo regapd accounts in 40 minutes and deleted the tweets which nbc news archived before they were taken down. Hbo saying overnight only that we are investigating. It comes a week after hbo was hit by another attack where a Different Group calling themselves mr. Smith demanded hbo pay them millions of dollars sending hbos ceo a fiveminute video set to ominous music from game of thrones. The group also leaked what and to be confidential hbo documents, internal emails from a company executive, a plot summary for the next game of thrones episode. This is absolutely a very terrifying issue for people in hollywood. In a statement hbo says a forensic review is ongoing. Its working with Cyber Security firms and Law Enforcement to resolve the incident and the company has no reason to believe their email system as a whole has been compromised. An anonymous group, hard to verify whether that group was behind the latest attack. On top of all this the next game of thrones episode was accidentally released early in spain and norway this week and copied before hbo was able to take it down. Matt and savannah, hbo says this is not at all related to that stolen material. All right, kelly. Thank you very much. Its getting hard to follow all that. I know. Got to start watching game of thrones apparently. Did you watch baseball last night . I didnt. Back to the video at the top of the show, ceremonial first pitch in boston didnt go as planned. Jordan, a bone cancer survivor, had the honor of throwing out the first pitch red sox game. But the pitch, a little bit outside. All right. Thats a ball. Probably thought he was working from a safe distance. Everyone at fenway reacting. Others with a few nervous laughs. Le andrown he responded, yikes. To make matters worse, im a pitcher. As for the photographer, hes okay. He later tweeted, im the one who got hit, and i will never stop laughing at that video. Wow. That is amazing. Not exactly in the strike zone. Well by the way, that makes this look like a perfect first pitch. Exactly. Nobody got hurt. Exactly right. There you go. Lets see what we have for you. Talk about some strong storms.

Thousands of people gathered at university of virginia last night for a vigil against hate and violence. Thats where the violent weekend rallies organized by White Nationalists held. Joint chief of staff says north korea is possible. Also warning kim jongun credible, viable military options, as he put it, are ready to deal with the regime. The generals comments came overnight as he wrapped up a trip to china. A truckdriver somehow survived with minor injuries after this fiery crash in kansas. Take a look, it hit a barrier wall, burst into flames. Moments later a Good Samaritan rushed in to help the driver escape. Thats astonishing that he walked away with minor injuries. Meantime, despite the growing backlash, extremist groups planning more rallies like the one that ended in violence last weekend. So who is leading the movement and why are they gaining traction. Gabe gutierrez has a closer look at that. Gabe, good morning. Reporter matt, good morning to you. Again, experts who track these groups say they feel emboldened and are not going away. While we dont want to provide a platform for these fringe voices its important to understand how they are. A warning, some of the language youre about to hear is disturbing. This morning a growing number of cities across the country are bracing for far right rallies like this one in charlottesville, from boston to San Francisco to lexington, kentucky, where White Supremacists are fighting city officials who plan to vote tonight on a resolution to remove two confederate statues. Senate Majority Leader Mitch Mcconnell say their message of hate and bigotry are not welcome in kentucky and should not be welcome anywhere in america. We will engage in Peaceful Demonstrations throughout american cities. Selfproclaimed nationalist helped organize the rally and planning one in lexington. Were standing up for white folks who deserve a vote. Richard spencer speaking on tv says it has grown since President Trumps election. No doubt our movement is winning. They go by different names and ideologies. Altright, White Nationalist, neonazi but their ideas are repulsive to many and often inconsistent. Well kill these people if we have to. Weve done everything in our power to keep this peaceful. Another White Nationalist posting a video after learning of a warrant for his arrest. On it an emotional man choked up. Im terrified, im afraid youre going to kill me. I really am. A far different from this interview before the rally that went viral. Im trying to make myself more capable of violence. Im here to spread ideas, talk, in the hopes that somebody more capable will come along and do that. Somebody like donald trump who does not give his daughter to a jew. Late last night i spoke to him by phone. How can you possibly defend that . I just dont think theres anything wrong with racism frankly. Still he now says hes encouraging his followers to lay low after charlottesville. You want them to deescalate for how long . I dont know the answer to that question. But we have to regroup. Right now things are too hot. Its looking bad for a lot of things and we need to calm down. Police say protester james fields killed a woman with his car. Another White Nationalist tells nbc jake sobirov that may temporarily hurt the cause. I think theres going to be a setback. Eventually there will be more meetings and gatherings but that may be six months down the road. A Southern Poverty Law Center which tracks extremists says that california has more hate groups than any other state. Guys. All right, gabe. Thank you very much.

Home owners and businesses doing just that, hiking up prices on flights, hotels, rental cars. Today National Investigative correspondent jeff rossen imlimimlimwith more. If you live april town across the eclipse path theres big money to be made. Its getting so crazy people are renting out their back yards. For example, this backyard in South Carolina is for rent because hotels are sold out, families need a place to stay. Can you rent this out for 320. They will even throw in this tent for two people. He hope you like the person youre traveling with. Its pretty cozy in there. If camping isnt your thing, plan to shell out a lot more money. This morning were about to show you what people are charging. As the sky goes dark on monday, locals are lighting up. Along the eclipse path raising prices on flights to rental cars to hotels. Demand is high and they are allowed to do it. Our hotel is a month and a half old. We sold out as soon as we opened inventory for that day. Reporter so at hotels that arent sold out, prices are skyrocketing. In idaho, this room with a queen bed listed at 118 tonight. On sunday the same room listed for 785. Check out this room in greenville, South Carolina. Its an Embassy Suites goes for 259 per night now. During the eclipse 799, more than three times the high. Think thats high. In nashville my producer found an even bigger spike. I just checked into this marriott. The price right now 368. But for the eclipse it ski rockets to 978 a night. Reporter now try getting there. Flights will cost you more, too. This delta flight from new york to nashville costing 211 on a regular sunday. But to get there this sunday ahead of the eclipse, it will cost you almost 1,000. Once you arrive in a total eclipse zone its rental car time. In jackson wyoming, this suv would cost 115 per day. But for the eclipse, that same suv going for more than 1200 for the day. And its not just businesses. Even regular home owners are printing money, renting out their houses for big cash on airbnb. Take a look at this house, nice house, not a mansion by any stretch. Guess how much the home owners want during the eclipse. 950. These are the homeowners want a big bank account on this. Thats a lot of money. Why that high . Greenville is a popular place. All the Hotels Booked up so we decided to give it a shot. Also we didnt want to pack up our kids and do all that work for a little money. We thought go big, go home.

The fight over calorie labeling on restaurant menus and how effective it is when it comes to your health. Nbc Morgan Radford here with that. Are we going to be surprised by this . I think you will. Its actually a modern day food fight. The days of not knowing whats in your feed may be numbered. New york city the first in the country to require chain restaurants to post those calorie counts on the menu. With new regulations comes an extra side of controversy. A National Debate fueled by a Big Apple Food fight. Chain restaurants now being forced to take orders of a different kind thanks to a new life requiring them to post calorie counts on their menus. New york city becoming the first in the nation to do so. Starting this month, those who dont comply will be fined. Not everyone has an appetite for change. While federal officials agree calorie counts are important for consumers, they say such regulations should come from the National Level to ensure consistency. In a statement to nbc news, the food and Drug Administration says in part if hundreds of different municipalities set their own rules, it would lead to added cost and confusion that would ultimately disadvantage consumers. I was surprised they have taken it upon themselves to take such an eager role in aligning industry which has fought the city in efforts to provide healthier food for our residents. Reporter the big question, does displaying calorie counts have an impact effect on weight loss. I dont see clients healthier because of it. I think they may be aware of what calories in different foods. I dont necessarily see it helping their weight or health. One study found they do work for those overweight or obese. When asked on twitter, more than 0 of those who responded to our today show survey said calorie counts on menus help them make better food choices. Still, when it comes to new york city, some experts say the big apple may have bitten off more than it can chew. We know now in 2017 the focus should not be on calories. Core focus what we should be thinking about is whole real foods eaten in the right proportions and learning to listen it our bodies. The fda has already set a uniform National Standard when it comes to posting nutritional values and those rules will go into effect next may. The question is will i affect you. Like them . I do. Some things seem healthy like banana bread, then 400 calories. You walk into starbucks and see calorie counts and you freak out on how much they are. It influences my decision. Morgan, good story.

Netflixlike service to pay 10 a month to visit the theater every single day. Seems like a good deal. Why isnt everybody happy. Here is nbcs Business Correspondent jo ling kent. Reporter sounds like a fairy tale for movie fans. Netflix transformed tv, its doing the same for movies. Netflix for movie theaters. A former netflix executive who started movie pass in 2011. Its an app that allows subscribers to see a new flick in theaters every day for one monthly fee. It used to cost as much as 50 a month. This week movie pass lowered that subscription to 10 meaning customers can now see up to 31 new movies a month for the price of a single ticket or less. Our new price point at 9. 95 gives them the incentive to go more often. In fact, our subscribers once they join go twice as often as they went before. Movie pass says it works with 91 of theaters nationwide excluding imax. It reimburses theaters for the full price of every ticket sold. But some Film Industry experts worry movie passs Business Model doesnt add up. The idea that dropping prices is going to spur all this new movie going just doesnt make sense. People arent basing their movie going decisionton price but rather quality of movies. Some theaters are concerned, too. In a statement amc, the largest theater chain in america, say it may break up with movie pass over its 10 price point because its unsustainable and only sets up consumers for ultimate disappointment down the road if or when the product can no longer be fulfilled. Movie pass says it is profitable making money providing special Services Like vip access to concessions where it earns a cut of your spending.

White gold with white gold, rose gold with rose gold. Now the cool thing is go for it. Mix white gold, yellow gold. You see savannahs wrist here on her instagram. Look how shes layering up here, doing it right. Hoda does it. The way to do it, just keep it to scale. Its most complimentary. Dainty with dainty and costume with costume. Costume jewelry. So with this, also to scale. When you put it on, everything should be about the same size. Thats how you do it. With this, pick a bouquet of flowers like going into a flower shop and pick the colors you like together. Again, this is about scale. Thigh jewel, lisa lurch, blake lively, see here how she layered it up, also heidi klum shows it off. Men. You have a little bit of an arm party going. Two little things. Can we show you a little arm party. Its an arm party but i feel like they need a new friends. Like an arm soiree. Layer these up, prelayered. There you go. Like that. Then i feel like you need a few more friends. I think thats a little much. Okay. You could really go for it. With a men, with white tshirts and jeans on a saturday night, 30, prelayered for you. I already have this on my ankle, so its the same thing. I love your fashion segments, they are so good. Lilliana vazquez is going to cover layering clothes, good morning. Good morning. This is every stylists trick to adding dimension but adding to pieces you have that you already love. Lets start with kimberly, classic chic outfit black and white. Instead of a button down that ends at her hips, this long maxi layered under crop top from hmo. Wear crop tops, show off your waist. You probably have a lot of these in your close preft for the fall, the key is to layer two skirts. If you notice this beautiful skirt from topshop. Underneath pleated mini skirt to add detail and movement. How do you make sure its not bulky. Thats a good, mix contrast. This outer is stiff, this is flowy, you dont want to layer the same fabric. The good thing, a lot of companies doing prelayers for you. Topshop has foolproof layering right out of the closet. Thank you very much. Lets go to hoda. Last but not least layering makeup, our girl Bobbie Thomas is here. Usually in the morning trying to figure out whats going on first, serum, moisturizer, whats the rule of thin. Do from thin to thick. Thin is like a watery serum, lotions and heavy cream. When it comes to makeup, you want to start with primer, which most people know because it says primer. Foundation and concealer is sort of a snafu. Its foundation first, then concealer because youre going to wipe it away if youre rubbing this in. Then powder and setting spray. We have a great chart to remind you online. Got it. Lets mav to eyes and cheeks. Eyes first. When it doss eyes, good thumb, light to dark. What youll want to do is really take a light powder to be the base, then dip into a dark to get into your contour and blend it out, then your eyeliner. So the eyeliner goes on last. If you have a gel, set the gel with powder after. Boom. When it comes to your cheeks, one plush color. Honestly, shes helping with her gorgeous face. Its better to do two. Underneath bronzer and contour. That goes first. Color on the apples of your cheeks. The onetwo punch likes three dimensional. Thats the bones. Quickly with the lips. Last but not list, a big gloss layering trend. When it comes to lips, urban decay, look for lip toppers. Use your regular lip color and then get a fuller about. We love you so much. Thanks to the entire squad. We have more on today. Com style. More in a moment but first this is today on nbc. Anticipation for the solar is growing and so are our appetites.

Announcer from nbc today, this is todays take from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. Hey, its thursday morning august 17th, 2017. She has been on our program, miss starling. It is good. I heard you had a wonderful hi, yall. Good morning, guys, i missed yall. You missed us . I missed you so much when i saw this picture on a doubledate with debra, who happens to be one of my favorite people, i thought to myself, what would it be like to be at that table . It wasnt exactly a doubledate. My son was there. He was the chaperone. Thats right. And this started yesterday. Sheinelle had been going on about this couscous from cbs. We even put it to the test. We as in keir simmons. Ive never received such a huge response to anything ive done on the today show. We can talk about world peace and i get two responses. We talk about the best on the planet, couscous from frozen foods and explodes. I brought it for al to try, keir simmons to try it. You refused. Started a hashtag battle. 69 wanted notice try it. 31 didnt. What did keir simmons say. He tried it. He didnt love it but i dont think he loved couscous in general. He hated it, said it was awful. Hate. He didnt say hate, he said it was awful. Did he . Based off of this, ive been traveling, im a little confused. Based on this cvs couscous, you decided to throw a couscous party. No, i decided im going to make this and bring it in, which ive done. Thank you. I was going make scallops, i know sheinelle and her husband are without children, fairly close. You live downtown. She lives fairly close. Scallops are my favorite. Marti martinis. It was quite delightful. We went to town, had a nice time in the backyard. I just brought couscous. You know what, its like not being invited to the dinner party and getting leftovers the day of a. If you dont want those, im sure zack will take them. Here is the thing. Did you make this before . I did not make it before. My recipe that black beans when i invite people over, i at least make one thing ive never made before just for pressure. What . Thats good. So i thought this was invite us over for dinner because you thought we were nice people. This man had his phone ready and he was ready for me to take take bite of couscous and he actually captured it. Okay. Is it possible this could be better than cvs pharmacy . Im not sure. You put beans in it. Its pretty good. If this was in a package in the refrigerated section id buy it. Not only that, she went in for seconds. I was trying to do it when al looked away. Trying to get more. My husband was so happy because i havent cooked since august 5th. Since the kids left. Since the kids left. So hes hungry. I havent cooked since last august 5th. My poor husband is like cereal again . You said you were going to have cereal. Frosted flakes, whole milk. I had gone to the Farmers Market and i had extra strawberries and blueberries. I had never made a strawberry shortcake before. Can i just come and shadow you. It was like fine dining. Can i shadow you a little bit how to be a domestic goddess. Im going to make somebody a lovely wife. You are incredible al roker. Seriously. Ive been on this avocado kick. Learn how to be better by al. I know how to cook, thats all. The fact that you are a good enough chef to cook something without trying it first. I love how im talking to you and i wont hear you, have you ever invited somebody over and cooked for them and not tried to cook it first. No way. Whats the worst that could happen. You have to go out for takeout. That happened to me before. I burned some chicken. I was new in my marriage. I had my inlaws in. This is when we lived in baltimore. It wasnt as easy as new york. I had to go down the street, order a meal in the bar, place it on the plate and act as if i cooked it. Did you fess up you didnt cook it. No, not even to henry. Does he watch . No. Okay. Foodconfessions. What have you done when you were cooking that you didnt want anybody to know about. You know what else i did . I chopped off my phone cooking sweet potatoes. It grew back. I had to wear a cast that morning for school. I had to go to the emergency room. Henry had to braid my hair. I taught and my kids made me a feel better sign. By the way, share your confession. It feels good to get it off the soul. When they express themselves, its not like you respond. 0 of america wanted you to try couscous. I tried to get more for jenna, its sold out. You have the oprah effect. Its so good. A teachable moment. Whats a teachable moment. For your children. You do not succumb to peer pressure. What about always at least try it. I always try something, but nothing im going to die for. Succumbing to peer pressure. Because again, again, i just have a rule. Its not a guideline, its a rule. I dont buy food where sick people are going into. That is ridiculous. Can we talk about something . Lets move on. I sort of feel like the day after middle school Slumber Party i wasnt invited to. Stop it, jenna. When she said that before, then sheinelle is before, what about you and savannah, you guys go to parties and work out. Uhoh, suddenly the bandaid has been ripped off. Anyway, bring them on in, gerald. This is epic. Thank you, guys. What is this . Its an eclipse doughnut. Eclipse doughnut. Krispy kreme has a new doughnut, their special chocolate doughnuts. Its glazed its a regular doughnut but glazed in chocolate. Were trying to stay away from the krispy kreme. Its impossible. Look at the plates. Its really good. My taste anymore, i tell you its really good, i dont know if you believe me. Its really good. Again, not sold in a drugstore. These are in stores on monday, just for the eclipse. Weve got a video for you this morning. We do. Interview with bloomberg, your dad and president bill clinton talked about their greatest accomplishments. Lets take a look. This is a surprise. My daughters love me. As bill will tell you, its a challenge to have teenager daughters when youre the president. Its a challenge any time to have teenager daughters. Thanks to lauras guidance and love, our little girls, our family unit strengthened. I think thats a great accomplishment. Thats what he said his greatest accomplishment was, i never got arrested. Only once. That was so cute. Surprising. That makes up for not being invited. At least he loves me. Thats really sweet. You are a really sweet person. I can only imagine you with your fun loving personality, i bet you were so good for him, just to have a daughter youre twins, obviously daughters, but someone like you, i can only imagine how healing that was for you. Youre a fun person. I dont know why im crying. Seeing your dad saying Something Like that. Dont tell tammy. Have another doughnut. You are loved. Thats good stuff. You know whats so funny, somebody tweeted this morning, all these eclipse glasses, they have been the same glasses for so many years but you can create a necklace where you can live stream forever. Whats he talk about . Theres this necklace, we talked about it in the orange room this morning, you wear it around your neck, wear the necklace and has the ability to live stream up to two hours. Then it immediately goes on youtube, twitter, facebook or wherever. I dont like that. Thats ridiculous. I dont like that at all. Nobody in the studio. No. Nobody. This is why. You go to a concert and people always hold up their phones and dancing. They are saying put the phone down and live in the moment. Somebody Walking Around in their life. Its a security issue. I dont like it. Im 411, what am i shooting. The necklace is here. I know what youre shooting and its inappropriate.

Its supposed to be the Expiration Date is august 17th. The only thing were saying, this is green, we know what day it was on but it could have been a day in may. It doesnt matter. See what im saying.

You dont want to be inside cooking all day. Editorinchief cooking light, an easy recipe for us. Good to see you. You, too, al. Thanks for having me. Hanger steak. Super simple thursday night dinner. Five ingredients. Ch. Youve got the other stuff. We dont count salt and pepper and vinegar as an ingredient, so weve got our other five ingredients here. You want to get started . You bet. First order of business slice up squash. Really simple, make rings. Go on the grill. Any squash you want. Any squash. Whatever vegetables you like, its summer they are at the market. Zucchini, broccoli. Cut up potatoes in wedges. Okay. Remember back in the day when we would microwave baked potatoes. Sure. Were going to do a shortcut and microwave. Thats going in for six minutes. If you wanted to, could you par boil them. You can par boil them but this is going to steam them and make them easier to cook. Weve got these preprepared. Were going to get a little bit of olive oil here. Here is our trick. This is going to shortcut dinner here. Weve got our plastic wrap. Were going to vent it. These go in the microwave for six minutes. You have to vent it. Whats really cool about this, can you do it with beats, other root vegetables, carrots. Weve got par cooked potatoes, went in for six minutes here. A little more olive oil, salt and pepper. Because its just five ingredients, is important to season every ingredient as you go. Thats the way you build your flavor. These go right on the grate here. If youve got a charcoal grill, you get one of those pans. You can do it in cast iron skillet, also outside. Olive oil, salt, pepper. These will cook pretty quickly. Exactly. Potatoes and squash, three minutes a side. Really good. Really good. It tastes like more than five ingredien ingredients. Youre going with beef tenderloin, could you use another cut of beef you wanted. Whatever cut in the frig. Bone in ribeye. 2 cut, thats mine, too. That will take longer. Can you use chicken or shrimp because the sauce will go with everything. Fantastic. A couple of keys to the perfect steak. One, youve got to season it well. So difference between a home cook and restaurant chef is the amount of salt they use. All right. You want to use more salt than you think necessary and youve got to season up high. The reason why we season up high, you get better coverage of the steak. When you season low you get pockets of salt. More salt than you think you need. Both sides. Both sides. Second key, a hot dpril grate. So the key here to build flavor is to get that sizzle. You want to hear that sear. The sear equals flavor. While thats cooking you want to get the sauce. Chimichurri. Cilantro chopped up, super fresh, olive oil. Were studying it. I love it. More salt and pepper. Remember, were seasoning everything. Buzz that up. Buzz it up, ends up all nice and pureed. Go as smooth or chunky as you want. What we love about this, you can add whatever season you like, the inlaws have moved in with us. And, our Adult Children are here. So, we save by using tide.

Millions of kids go to camp every summer but for kids dealing with cancer, chemo schedules, around the clock care can make it tough for them to get away. One camp has been helping kids with cancer more than 20 years. Run by university of texas md anderson Childrens Cancer hospital and its a place where teens can relax, have fun, and have an awesome summer. Just an hour outside of houston, texas, youll find camp aokay. It caters to teens treated by md andersons cancer hospital. Our mission is to provide opportunity for them to be kids. We often have lots of campers in active treatment so were able to administer all the chemotherapies and get back out and enjoy activity as soon as they can. That medical care is a relief to melissa whose 16yearold daughter casey diagnosed with brain tumor two years ago. For us such a blessing. It sort of involved all the things she thought she would have to sacrifice because of surgery an chemo and she would be well cared for. Halfway through her 52week chemo schedule she can have a bit of fun without worry. Tell me a little what you like about this camp. I like it because its every day. I have chemo and it horse back riding i really love. It makes you feel like youre not going through it alone. Someone else understands it.

Aokay wants to help campers with milestones that may have missed due to treatment like putting on a special prom night. I heard there was a dance. I was dancing last time. This is 16yearold christians first year at camp having just been diagnosed with testicular cancer in june. He didnt understand what cancer was. He just thought, okay, they could just do the surgery mom and take it away. He saw the doctors. He realized its doing to be more than just removing it. So this the first time and now youre here enjoying your self . Yeah. Does it feel like a good break . Right now im not really worried about it, thinking about i actually have cancer. Im thinking about doing something active, get outside. Have fun. Yeah. For logan staying active and being positive has been the trick dealing with osteosarcoma. My dad was like yes and i started crying a little bit. What have you learned about her, watching her resilience to fight this. Shes very selfless, never asked why me. She has good days and bad, as you can imagine going through chemo. Shes strong. I was super glad to have my doctors i already know. They are fun to talk to, too. They make a bad situation not quite as bad at all. Were able to get blood drawn and medications given, things that wouldnt be at a typical camp. A couple of other girls have the exact same thing i do. Its cool we can talk about our different experiences. Kids presurgical that dont know what to expect, she talks to them, tells them not to worry about things. She isnt going to let cancer beat her. No. It really hasnt slowed her down. I know.

It was about love. You wrote about light shining through dark. You know what, im going to stop scrolling. It made me feel better. I turned off my phone and wept to sleep. I ended my evening on a positive note. It was because of you, you pushed stluthrough a positive message. Out of darkness can come light.
