One of them, homeland is a joke and didnt make us laugh. The other messages were even more cutting. The trio responsible, the arabian street artists say they did it to protest what they believe is the shows negative portrayal of muslims. Alex gansa reacted to it saying homeland always strives to be subs subm submersive. I wonder if theyll sway on with the show, the three artists. They know who those artists are because one of the things they said is homeland is racist and came out and called them out on it so it was a good reaction by the shows producer and see the conversation continues.

The High School Coach feeling the heat of those friday night lights. Hes been told to stop praying with students on the field or he could get fired. But hes not backing down. Abcs Neal Karlinsky has his story. Reporter this morning, bremerton High School Football coach joe kennedy says he plans to put his job on the line, not because of anything hell do during tonights game, but this amen. Reporter the prayer he plans to lead on the 50 yard line after the game, something he says hes done for nine years. From there there was it started out with three guys and just started growing from there and every year its grown a little bit more. Reporter a month ago the School District says it told the coach to stop writing talks with students may not include religious expression including prayer. And that to do so would violate the law. I dont understand how this could be wrong. Im not establishing religion. Im not preachy with anybody. Reporter the district says students are welcome to pray. It just cant be at the direction of a school employee. Its that mutual respect. This he know where i stand but ive never asked them about theirs because it has no bearing on what we do on the football field. Reporter even so, many of the schools students and even their parents have come out to actively support the coach. We believe that he shouldnt lose his job for what he practices at the end of the game. Reporter kennedy says he never required his athletes to pray and only meant to motivate them. Something hes done in a strictly secular way since the district warned him. A conservative group called the liberty statute is now taking up his cause threatening to sue the School District saying the coach has every right to practice his faith. Private citizens on their own time have a right to practice their faith and we think its very important at Liberty Institute to protect that constitutional right. Reporter and so he now plans to pray with his players after tonights game, whether the school allows it or not. From the very beginning that ive done, we go out to the 50 and im going to thank the lord for the young men that participated and blessing me with this group of guys. Reporter for Good Morning America, Neal Karlinsky, abc news, bremerton, washington. These issues always so controversial. Yeah, they are and hes been doing it for nine years and i understand what theyre saying about the rules being such and maybe it was before it was so informal and so many people now are on that 50 yard line. So theyre saying if a kid does it its okay but if a coach coach or teacher. But at least some coaches are accused of telling their players to rough up the referee. Weve seen that, as well. A little different. Okay, well move on, next up in our heat index, wedding that almost didnt happen thanks to an elevator that didnt work trapping the entire Wedding Party of 24 people just before the ceremony. Happy newlyweds join us live for a look at their story. Its the wild ride that no one had this Wedding Party was expecting. Liz copeland and harry stein were one elevator away from their dream weding. We all pack into this elevator. My girfriend said maybe we should take the stairs. It goes about three feet down and then it just stops. Reporter with 24 people inside, the bride, the groom, parents, grandparents, photographers, groomsmen, bridesmaids, the wedding planner, even the rabbi, all trapped in an elevator with no way out. We couldnt miss it because every Single Person that was involved with the ceremony was in the elevator. I thought, okay, god has other plans for this wedding. Reporter instead of panicking everyone went selfie. Reporter the bride got big premarital props from her soontobe motherinlaw. She right away reacted so well. She was smiling. She started laughing. Reporter trapped for just over 30 minutes, the copeland oystein Wedding Party freed by firefighters arriving on scene just in time to say i do. Everybody on the elevator cheered. The divine comes in many forms and in this case it was in the form a firefighter. And liz copeland, harry stein join us from their honeymoon in mexico. All smiles. No mishaps on the honeymoon yet. What was that . Any mishaps on the honeymoon yet . No mishaps really. I actually i lost my wallet at one point and a really nice guy brought it back to us. Wow. I guess we just have good luck. I guess. What were you thinking 24 people in an elevator . It was a huge elevator. You know, so it was full but we werent like claustrophobic, i dont think. And for me i didnt really want to walk down the stairs with my like Wedding Dress with the long train and so we were just like, okay, lets pile in the elevator like weve done before. I guess you guys werent worried about the tradition of waiting until you see her walking up the aisle. No, we did a first look beforehand because we wanted to take pictures before the ceremony so we could be at the reception ourselves. Thats smart. I hadnt thought about that. What did you do in the elevator . Itting looked like there was a party in there in yeah, everyone just kind of whipped out their phones and started taking pictures. Liz, i think you said you wanted to do a singalong. I wasnt sure. I felt like other people wouldnt have been okay with that so i kept that thought to myself but we started taking photos. The photographers were grabbing things and i dont know, you know, you wait all day to get married. You get your hair done, your makeup done, all of that, the photos taken and so it was just a little bit more waiting so we said, hey, why not have a little fun with this. A little prereception. And no onene was nervous or thinking, when are we getting out of here . You just had complete faith you would be rescued. You know, yeah, i think most of us did. Ill say my mom was a little bit nervous. My grandparents were in the elevator with us and theyre about 85 years old so the heat was rising as we were in there so she was a little worried, oh, is this going to become a problem but, you know, it was still a short period of time that we were stuck so luckily we were all okay. It all worked out great. Thanks for joining us this morning. You guys are great sports. Enjoy mexico. Yeah. Congratulations. Congratulations. How adorable. I know. I love how they reacted and handled ha. They look like professional photographs. Gorgeous couple in the elevator having the time of their lives. Next in heat index, our series on modern parenting and a rare set of identical twins turning the whole nature versus nurture debate upside down. Their unique story told in becoming nicole and Deborah Roberts has that. Reporter nicole and jonas maines arent your average siblings. Believe it or not they are identical twins, the one is female and the other male. Ill go to Say Something and hell say it right before i say it. Reporter nicole wasnt always nicole. Born wyatt shes transgender. Just knew in my head and heart that i was supposed to be a girl. Reporter for her parents kelly and wayne it was all very puzzling. All the girl roles. She always wanted to dress as a girl character. So i knew there was Something Different about her. I just made it a point of making sure i could do whatever i could do for her to get her where she needed to be and also to know she always had a safe place with me. Reporter wayne struggled with the idea of letting go of one of his sons. I had to dig deep into my soul and say, hey, what are you afraid of . Reporter they let their son grow out his hair, wear girls clothing and just recently complete the final step of transition, sex reassignment surgery. We met nicole just days before the surgery. Youre only 17. Uhhuh. Reporter teenagers change their minds a lot. Teenagers sort of are here one day and there the next day. Are you sure youre ready to make such a commitment . Absolutely. When i think about am i scared about surgery, will i change my mind, this is always been what i needed. This is always been like i said my light at the end of the tunnel. Reporter nicoles story raises many questions, how can identical twins with the same dna travel such different paths . And what do these twins tell us about what it means to be transgender . A fresh look at the old debate of nature versus nurture. For Good Morning America, Deborah Roberts, abc news, maine. They are supportive. Thank you, deb. Joined by abcs dr. Richard besser. Love to get your thoughts on this, rich. I find it absolutely fascinating. Were learning more and more about gender identity and how it forms because you would think you have identical twins, their genes are all the same. Theyll be the same in every way. But it turns out our genes have little switches on them. They can be turned on and off and so even though they have identical genes, there are studies that show only 39 of the time where one is transgender will the other be as well so its absolutely fascinating. Wow, you saw where deb was asking nicole about being a teenager and sometimes parents will say, so and so is just going through a phase. When do you know its different . Well, with gender identity, you usually know very early on. Yes, you know, teens try on different identities and little kid, preschoolers, boys will want to try on girls clothesic. With gender identity it usually forms early by around age 2. Nicole knew, she said i knew that i was a girl. And preschool she would introduce her, hi, im wyatt, i am i boy but i know im a girl. Its different from saying i want to try on a dress. Nicoles parents, so supportive. How as a parent do you approach this . You know, its hard to imagine what a parent must feel when they have this one idea of what their child is going to be like and they get this difference. You want to ask your childs doctor and, you know, realize a lot of doctors have no idea how to deal with this. Say you have any experience in dealing with issues around gender identity, if not, can you refer me to someone who does. So you can get some support around this. And, you know, this isnt something new but our ability to talk about it is something that is reached a whole new level. Some people think it is. It seems we are talking about it more and more. Is it were talking about it more . I think theres more of an acceptance of difference and thats a terrific thing. It is. All right. Rich, thanks. Have a great weekend. And for more on these twins tune in to nightline tonight right here on abc. Hope that you do. Outside to ginger. Robin, you have to see this little megan from omaha, nebraska.

Its like a little baby burrito. Make a big bure roto, george. Then turn it over, roll it over and stick it into that little pocket. I think you go backwards. There you go. Yay. Whoohoo. Your shirt will stay folded. I would say if george can do it, anyone can but this is george stephanopoulos. Thank you so much, rachel. Up next we have todd johnson who is good morning.

Yeah, pretty much. I eat a lot of pizza but found all my leftovers wouldnt fit in the fridge in a normal size pizza box so i did some googling online and found ideas and did tinkering and show us the magic. First thing you want to do, take the top off the box, recycle that. Or throw it into the crowd as amy robach does. Try to hit some bystanders. Grab a pair of scissors, yours are already done. Snip some like a little v off the side to give you a hinge. Pop the sides in. Okay. Fold that right over. So great. And fits in the fridge. Pizza box. There you go. And thats going to fit in your fridge. I love it. So you still dont have to do too much work to store the pizza. No, not at all. I didnt feel it was fitting to this have without a fix of my own.

Coming up, ginger hits the gym to show us the benefits of working out when youre a now to our baby oh baby series and this morning its fitness during pregnancy. We headed to one Riverside Park to prove you can move through every trimester. My prepregnancy workouts were no joke. But as soon as i found out i was boxing for two, this is the second person i told. My trainer. Mark has kept me moving safely through every trimester. Which meant adding a heart monitor to my workout. Being pregnant changed everything in a day. Right. Right. Even things like going upstairs for you all of a sudden you were a little more winded so we needed to monitor it. Very important to keep the heart rate around 140, 145. Reporter now that im watching my heart rate i can pretty much do anything with a few modification. Doing jump squats so instead of that we do a static ground inversion. In fact, working out a lot during pregnancy is just what the doctor ordered. Im also following a few pregnancy fitness rules. Dont overheat. Stay cool even during exercise. Avoid laying on your back because that could reduce blood flow to the uterus and subsequently the baby. Avoid high risk exercises or sports where there is a risk of falling. I may not be waterskiing until after baby, but i can still box. There you go. And we are joined by certified pre and postnatal pregnancy Nikki Kimbrough with moves that every move can do through the first through third trimester. They have their feet apart and ladies are coming up, taking it all the way up. What i love about this exercise youre strengthening the lower body and upper body at the same time. Ladies, you keep doing that, you get one of these. Yeah. My friend sara haines leading the second trimester friends, second try in esther, a new rule. No more exercises on your back. You put so much pressure on the vina kava. You put pressure on that it reduces blood flow to the baby. Keep it going, ladies. Keep it going. With the third trimester youre like, okay, here we go now. Legs tight, backs tight, your joints are getting bigger. I need to do something more low impact. Get a yoga take or take a prenatal yoga class. Mountain pose and then well do a nice easy tree pose. Come right here, bring the hand right here. Look at ginger showing off bringing it up a little bit higher. Now well come down. Nikki, thanks so much. Thank you all for being here.
