Yours you can fill in whatever you want. It is so personal. It is great. Thank you. Happy holidays. Happy new year, it is an eight out of ten for your number today, we are looking at a colder morning bus stop buddy still has his new years hat on but warmer coat on then yesterday. Temperatures mostly in the 30s, we have a couple 40s out there and there is a lot of cloud cover but we are hoping to get rid of that and see some sunshine today. I think we will. It is 40 degrees in the city and 10mile an hour wind. 7 22 is your sunrise time. That is coming up. Sunset the 4 46. We will have sunshine in between sunrise and sunset, High Temperature today of 45 degrees, wait until you see how cold in the seven day forecast, coming up, that is your weather for today, first one of the year. We have traffic, well, report on not too much traffic out there really, all is cleared on the ben franklin bridge heading in to philadelphia for now and i95 northbound at route 420, also quite clear in delco, so mummers parade starts at 9 00, broad street will be closed between arch and washington, detours will be in effect, so you better be aware of that traveling around the city, today mike and karen. So at 6 01. Im walking in front of my apartment on walnut street near the the fourth and kaboom, this was really a good looking display. It had has been too long. We were driving, as fast as we could and watching it go off at 6 00 we are driving in trying to make it down on the radio but we got to watch them taking off in the city. Really cool good it is new years day and philadelphia celebrates new years day like no other city in the world because of the mummers parade but it will be different this year. It will be. We have steve keeley out there, one of the oldest traditions, in the entire country. Steve keeley, something might be happening this year that is news worthy. Yes, we will keep mikes open, a anchors so i need your commentary here, mike in cursing while im on as usual. One of the police do not cross barricade, police wood inn barricade already karate chopped right here in the middle of Market Street. That is in the a good sign, is it . That is in the car number one, is it . Police are out in big numbers already. It will be a licensing day for a lot of city people today. Let me see if i should let that officer in. I guess he can get in if he want to get in. What you are looking at is golden sunrise group, fancy Brigade Division and they are the last year on Market Street to set up. Look at that, it looks like they have just raided your closet at home, your lime green bowa did you wear that out last night. I actually did, i dropped it off at that guy at 2 00 this morning my lime green bowa. I hear a mummers band in the distance, listen, are we picking this up. We hear it. So now, fortunately we dont have a wireless mike so we will join them in the next hour but lets talk about the serious stuff with this. The Philadelphia Park and Recreation Department parade director, Deputy Commissioner leo digman meeting at his office at 1515 arch street because he has got word that a lot of city officials have gotten including the the Police Department and Home Land Security Department that the black lives matter group is planning a big disruption of this mummers parade today at the 1 00 oclock right here at city hall, right in front of the judges reviewing stands right where the live tv cameras are, carrying this parade on live tv and right where thousands of people have paid 19 bucks to sit in the bleacher seats there. So, this parade could be more than just the the normal fun every year and what a ironic twist that this is the first ever mummers parade that is going to counter all of the critics about its lack of diversity by having black and latino march are and strutters for the first time and now black lives matter group says they want to protest two things. In the just the the Police Shootings around the the country, Police Brutality but they say the mummers, history of racism they called it. So, they have a lot of threats they say on their Facebook Page announcing and organizing this that they delete budd they are ready to tiehl with participant who attack them and they are also ready to be arrested. Karen and mike, this could be a very memorable mummers parade. Yes, for sure, all right, we will have cameras there of course. 7 07. A sea of people in times square last night, what did they say over a million. About a Million People fit into that space. It was a safe event. The it was amazing. I love it when they have the ball drops and all of the confetti starts falling. The obviously that the Waterford Crystal ball, fire works go off. All right karen, calm down. We had cute kissing shots when folks were in love. Did you kiss anybody. You you know what, i did not. Look at that, so cute. Listen to me, i got kisses on the cheeks from a number of humans but there was in lip on lip action for me last night. I didnt turn into within of those no, i have a fiance, there was in lip on lip last night. If you want to change that right now. Hey. 7 08. Other big story in our area certainly this week bill cosby, posts on social media for the first time in months following an arrest on Sexual Assault charges in Montgomery County. It was very simple, very short, friend and fans, thank you. In other word thank you for your support, that is what he is saying. It is interesting timing that he said anything, this was first time he has ever tweeted since august of this year and it all comes a day after the charges in Montgomery County, on Sexual Assault for Temple University employee at his home back in early 2004. What he says that was a consensual event his lawyer shown there, attorney pressly is going on the attack saying this arrest is flawed, politically motivated and will not hold up in court. Pressly says cosby is in good spirits and he will be exonerated. So legal case against bill cosby is shaping up to be boy an interesting case for sure. It will probably go on for over a year. Not only is this case nearly 12 years old but as we know he has been accused of Sexual Assault by dozens of woman but no charges have ever been filed. Many of them because the statute of limitations has run out. They cant charge him. This is first time. So these women who said they are willing to testify in this case but that is something his lawyer clearly they will try to prevent that. They dent want to hear from any of those or people. Prosecutors to have prove their testimony is directly relevant to this particular case. They will try to set up a pattern. Wouldnt be easy to do. Another element is settlement between bill cosby and woman from 2005 who used to work at Temple University. She sued him back in 2005. You know, prosecutors decided not to charge him way back then. He settled a year later and gave a deposition of what happened that was sealed until excerpts were released by a judge at the request of the Associated Press. His attorneys will likely fight to keep those excerpts of the deposition out of his trial. We shall see. Interesting we just saw a picture of his wife here as well and she is going to have to testify. She tried to fight testifying, camille at a case up there in massachusetts but judge just said nope, we will to have hear from you. We will follow that as well. We will be covering that for months and months. 7 10. There was a woman in mayfair doing some grocery shopping, right, yesterday, end up with a bullet in her face. Well, good news is shes back home and recovering but person who shot her is still on the loose right now. Authorities say that shes 57 years old and her name is judy richie and was walking on erhdick street yesterday on her way home from the shop rite in that area a man in the car gets out, and then goes up to her with a gun and snatches her purse. They struggled a little bit, the gun goes off, hitting her in the cheek. Shes wounded, bleeding but she continues to walk for a couple more blocks, back to her house and then she calls police, the crime has shaken up everybody in the neighborhood. It the is just horrible, horrible. I cant believe that is happening here. Im or toy see what happened to her. New years eve, happy new years and this is what we have to look forward to around here. That armed robber got away with a lot of money, 400. Detective are hoping to find some Surveillance Video of what happened, and maybe give them some includes and lead them to the suspect. Right here in our neighborhood some people are feeling unsettled in olde city. Police say at least one man in olde city has been very busy robbing people. He has robbed a whole number of people just the past couple weeks, there has been four cases where there is armed robberies when olde city, society hill and they are all happening at the same time between 9 00 and 11 00 at night. They dont necessity who this person is, they dont have a suspect, it is unclear fit is same person or maybe different people that are committing these attacks. Interesting, all of them, between 9 00 and 11 00 at night in olde city, right here. 7 12. The white house wants to curb gun violence and it is vowing to push for tighter gun control in the new year, executive order coming up. It seems like the president will be taking some executive action next week to expand background checks on gun sales. This could happen as soon as he returns from vacation in hawaii. The white house, will confirm details but president obama has been targeting on line gun sales and those big gun shows, around the country. The National Rifle association is on record against the expansion of the background checks, arguing criminals find other ways to get their hand on weapons. We will keep an yah on that probably next week. Fbi says it stopped annex conn from carrying out a terrorist attack. He wanted to do it last night. This guy is in rochester, new york. Pretty scary but they foiled this plan. The suspect is 25 years old, his name is emmanuel, he is charged with attempting to provide Material Support to terrorist. The federal say he planned to attack people at a bar last night with weapons that he purchased from an fbi informant. Authorities say members of the isis told him he needed to prove loyalty to the group by planning an operation. That was his plan. He does have a past criminal record and also a history of mental illness. Scary moments leading up to the new year in munich, germany, last night, warnings of an imminent terrorist attack in munich. They took some action there. Police really quick on this ones vac waiting two train stations in the city, warning people to stay away from forming large crowd this came just before the the new year and thousands of people still had plans, they went outside and watched fire works there but in the so much so in paris. They cancel them. They didnt want to take that risk. They canceled their display to keep large crowd from gathering but they did this instead. They said we want to do something. They have put on a light show, lot shorter a and they have more security. No issues were reported there. Man, lot of people were talking about this yesterday, i was at a restaurant, stopped and look up at the monitors, big fire in dub ai did you see this a high rise luxury hotel, look at how high the flames are going at this beautiful hotel. It was so stunning, i walk into someones home saying is what happening on television. We dont have an official word on the cause of this one, it is a large building, 63 stories, it is call at dress hotel. Explosions were report ared right before the fire started in about two hours before the fire works show, and they had fire works get on as planned even though they had thick smoke in the massive fire that was burning maybe fire works that was cause, that is one the of the things. It was two hearst before the the fire works. You have to investigate all sorts of things when a big hotel lick this goes up like that, with explosions, new years eve, what really was the the cause. They will have to investigate this. We do necessity there were some injuries, 14 people were hurt mostly because they were trying to get away from the scene. Yes. Okay sue is what number of the day eight out of ten. It is an eight today. A prop eighth thely chilly for january 1st which we know what happens every january 1st in philadelphia, the mummers parade. At 8 00 oclock we will be around 40 degrees which is where we are right now. By 2 00 he clock we should reach our high of the day 45. Stay on the sunnyside of the street you should be just fine, now just have a few layers on, for viewing the parade today. Heres what is happening, change in our weather pattern with the jet stream sinking to the south of us. The it had been staying to the north of us all the way through the entire in of december really ever since thanksgiving and new we have northwesterly wind coming in and that means a colder, weather pattern, so rain stays to our south from the cold front that came through yesterday and new were seeing lake effect snow machine cranking up around buffalo, new york and east of lake ontario around cleveland, ohio as well will because that cold air is moving across the great lakes that hasnt frozen yet, cannot rule out a flurry or two around here but generally we will to have get used to these colder temperatures. Mostly were in the 30s. Thirtyseven in reading and allentown, we have 29 in mount pocono. Forty here. Thirtynine in wildwood and 38. That makes the wind feel like it is 33. So dress for those temperatures, that are in the 30s because that is the the wind chill, this morning. Average high his 1 degrees. We have not been above average since november between the fourth. We havent been below average i should say with temperatures well above through christmas weekend and sunk down to monday at 47 degrees. Still above average. Fiftytwo yesterday. Two days before that. New 44 for High Temperature today. Fortythree tomorrow. Fortyfive on sunday. And then it gets very cold on monday, and tuesday of next week. The day time highs only in the 30s but still plenty of sunshine. The that is your seven day forecast. We are checking traffic this morning. There is not much on the road because everybody, well, was probably out last night. I95 at cottman avenue all clear just a handful of cars, driving around, route 202 southbound at route 422 is all clear, hardly a car on the road, and we have this check on mass transit, all septa services are on sunday holiday schedules today, broad street line, they are adding trains, they will have trains every eight to ten minutes the broad street line and why do you think that is . The the mummers parade. Of course. You know what sue, looking at that traffic, it feels like it is the holiday. Do you think. I love that about her. It is a friday. 7 18. Sunday, time game of the year, eagles will go up to the meadow land. Yeah. To play giants. Really means nothing. Our new friend here at good day philadelphia is dave u theram. We met you last monday. Yes. It has been a love affair ever since. I love coming here. Good. You guys have me back here every other day. Dont push it, this might be it. You went on this rant about getting rid of chip kelly. Yeah he could not even beat washington redskins. Yes. And then next day he is gone. A amazing, power of television, it is so great. Yeah. So, i was with a couple eagles players last night at a party offer at the waterworks. Can you name names. I would rather not. Why do you even bother to go up there and sunday. They say it is pride. You still play hard because your pride full and you you dont want to get hurt. If you dont play hard you will get hurt. I get that the from the players perspective but from a fans perspective you and i, it makes in sense for them to win this game on sunday. Makes no sense to. What is advantage of the losing. Advantage of losing is two reasons f they lose and Everything Else goes right around the league, they could get as far up as the sixth pick in the draft, next year. Out of 32 teams. But if they win and things go a certain way with the other games they cull be as far back as 17 difference was last year they were playing for tenth win and different between picks 18 and 20. Now it is picks, six and 17. That is a bad attitude i cant stand when team dont play to win. The players want to win. I want a sixth draft pick over a 17th. Real quickly here before we go too far, we have a bunch of players who are free agents. Yes. If i were a free agent i might want to leave town. So sam bradford he can go anywhere he wants now. I think he should stay here. I think sam bradford should stay here. I want him to stay. I liked how he played in the second half of the year. I didnt like the way he played up until that and i was ripping him throughout but he stepped up, started to get comfortable here in philadelphia and with what chips system was and i see talent with him. Inl an carol was their better corner, better than Byron Maxwell and nickel and dime corners, really covered people as well i want him to stay. Walter thurmond. He was a surprising safety that you could get cheap because he wasnt really a big name, he should say, keep him. Vinny cure difficult not fit billy davis 3 4 defense but billy davis isnt going to be here. Hopefully eagles bring in a coordinator plays a fourthree that suits vinny better and he could be one of the best pass rushers in football. Would i keep him. Who is our next coach, where does chip kelly go. Chip kelly goes to an nfc east team so he could ruin them. That would be great you are such a jerk. Just kidding. Im afraid chip kelly end up in tennessee with his toy Marcus Mariota and does great things with him. Within three years they will win a super bowl and that is just so philadelphia who do we pick up. Eagles should get either sean mcdermott, defensive coordinator of the carolina panthers, john harbaugh, head coach of the ravens, he might leave there, in the a great season for fired or sean payton out of new orleans. Payton and harbaugh both won super bowls, mcdermott a great the defensive mine. That could be a great up and coming coach. Are you a married person. Im as sipping will as single could get. Ladies. No ladies, no girl friend whatsoever. I work too much. You didnt kiss anybody last night. No, i kissed my hand that is only thing i kissed. That is really weird. Thanks, dave. 7 22. Things we wanted to do, president , in exception on this one, only difference his goals impact the the rest of all of us. We will look at what the president has planned or in store for the new year. He is getting thin, man. Live shot of allentown a lot going on there. Wow. No one is up. The start of the new year is a time when many people commit themselves to, resolutions, you know, for the next 12 months. And, there is in exception to that. Only difference with him is his pledges impact the rest of us. Doug luzader takes a look at his plans for his final year in office. Reporter beyond working on his golf game which appears to be much improved in recent years. Wow. Reporter president obama has a lengthy list of resolutions for 2016. He will finish this vacation in 2015 with just over one year to advance his vision for america. We are going to squeeze every last ounce of progress that we can make when i have the privilege, as long as i have the privilege of holing this office. Other big goal for 2016 helping to defeat whatever republican end up winning the g. O. P. Nomination next year. Played more golf last year then tiger woods. Ridiculous. Reporter especially fit is donald trump who appears to really get under the president s skin. I think we will have a strong democratic nominee, think that i democratic nominee will win a will have a democratic successor and i will campaign very hard to make that to happen for a whole variety of reasons. Reporter for starters it would be essential for keeping the president s agenda intact for coming year but therein lies the delicate balancing act for the the president in 2016. Pushing items like, gun control, the transpacific trade deal and enclosing the the prison at Guantanamo Bay, things that could be controversial, while at the same time he does not alienate potential democratic, and independent voters come november. If he is serious about electing the the democratic nominee, he is going to have to find ways to be less controversial and to appeal to a broader section of the public. Can he do it . I dont know. Reporter no one really knows at this point but it is clear that as his vacation wind to a close this weekend, the president will be looking ahead to a new year that could well determine what his legacy, really will be. In washington, doug luzader, fox news. Thanks, doug. George lucas has very strong word for disney after new Star Wars Film was released but now he is walking out and back a little bit. We have an apology coming up. The republicans in harrisburg were fighting each other over the state budget. Thats right. Each other. The Republican State Senate passed a responsible budget that begins to Fund Education but the Republican House of representatives has insisted on a budget that fails to Fund Education and balloons the deficit. Call your legislator, tell them to pass a budget thats right for pennsylvania. New year means new laws, we will look at new regulations, that go into effect, they are in effect at midnight across the country including some interesting ones in the state of texas. Yes, heres the the question, we just spent a ton of money during the holidays. We have things in our house. Do we need to replace them or can we get by with just repairing them . We have our financial expert weighing in on items you should repair or replace in the the new year. Also we have a life coach coming in later because we never keep our resolutions, right. He has seven tips, on how to stay on track for the whole year with your resolutions. You might want to weigh in if you have a question for him. Okay. So bill cosby, big story this week, bill cosby has made quite a name for himself as a comedian, actor, author, he has a ph. D. For goodness sake. It goes back to the fat albert days. We watched all these shows, such a leader for so many people, he was on laurel hardy, we would look to him when there was an issue good fat albert, when we were kid, we were watching that show, and then went in the cosby show when he became americas dad but new you what has because come of his legacy after Sexual Assault charges especially of this week. Real tough one. We have brought in an expert, chad last ter the director of the black men of pen pneumonia. Happy new year to the both of you. We will put up his mug shot, something he never wanted us to see, of course. What is left of his legacy as far as you are concerned. Legacy is tarnish. The first and foremost we need to make sure that we are delicate and sensitive to rape. In our society we dismiss rape f bill cosby is a a serial rapist because once again, this is allege, then we have to really look at, separating out bill cosby from cliff, fat albert and ispy but at the this present time the legacy is definitely tarnish. Something we need to have a conversation about. Who would imagine that americas dad would be engaged in in a prep eighth behavior if in fact it is true. Looking at this, it seems like he wants to fight, would that be your advise to fight this as hard as he can . What is he 78. Seventyeight years old. If he ace serial rapist, bill cosby need to get therapy. We need bill cosby make restitution however that was to the woman that he has prayed upon. I think, we also need to recognize that we cant whitewash or dismiss the impact that a different world that has got African Americans to go to historical black collegers and universities and cosby show has haddon American Society in the trans sending community. I necessity so many black people who are so saddened by this especially, i work with sheneille, for years, she was so disheartened by all this. She grew up watching the cosby show. Yes. She wanted to be his mom. The whole aspect of the off shoot of that, was different world in which, once again a lot of African Americans decide to go to historical black colleges and universities. That was with jasmine guy. Jasmine guy, lisa bonnet, i just think on all side of the color line people are very disappointed because bill cosby was a stand up comedian and wasnt just the the the cosby show but legacy is tarnished but we need not rush to judgment. We need to look at what is actually being alleged, we need to look at why is it like that in our society we have a person like Steven Collins of seventh heaven who admitted to child molestation and as of this past year seventh heaven is still in syndication. We need to look at what happened to woody allen in the sense he married his adopted daughter. We need to not use example of one side of the column are line to justify what has happened bill cosby with the removing of the the star in hollywood and honorary degrees. Taking shows off the air. Because it was alleged, and then joe paternos name removed off buildings the at penn state and then statue was removed. We need to be sensitive. There was two things im hearing, one it is number of women, people that have come over basically over 50 years. From 1969 up until today we have more than 50 women. That lend to credibility. On the other side other component when he wasnt just on tv he put his money where his mouth was, he was so philanthropic, gave to so many universities across the country who are now taking his name off the buildings. That is the challenge. So many people saw bill cosby as a person who was going on tour and talking about some of the pathology that exists in the Africanamerican Community. Now it emerges that bill cosby look what he is engaged in. We hud not difficulties in miss some of the things bill cosby was talking about during that period of time as it relates to personal accountability, responsibility in the Africanamerican Community with some of the pathology that we see but we definitely need to be empathetic and sympathetic to these charges. In our society we dismiss rape charges. We have over the years. Im very sensitive to it as a therapist because all of these women cannot be making this story up. Once again where im at the right now i will be waiting position but i believe at the end of the day it will come out that bill cosby is a serial rapist based on some of the evidence the and date. We will see. Have a great new you year. Always good to see you. Same as well. Bus stop buddy is still celebrating this morning. He went out at the midnight with the family with the pots and pans, and temperatures in the 30s. You may need a warmer coat. It is a eight out of ten in your weather by the numbers and there are quite a few cloud around but we are expecting sunshine eventually. You can see the sunburning through those clouds there. 40 degrees but feels like 33 right now. We had our sunrise officially at 7 22. We are expecting a high of 7 45. We are breezes of ten to 20 miles april hour. Nothing extreme. We are in the used to lows in the the 20s at night and that is what will happen tonight when we get down to 29 degrees. That is your Weather Authority update for new years day. Lets talk traffic. Well, there isnt any. Roadways are all cleared on the the way to the air port this morning. We will look at the blue route approaching conshohocken and there is, hardly a car on the road. Empty. Blue route this morning. So, of course, it is, the the usual, time to get where you wanting to this morning. Good time to travel. Really is, i think ill as leave now. Kanye west starts off this year with the surprise for fans. I think he wrote a song in the last 48 hours. Yes. That has to do with bill cosby. The it had to be over the last 48 hours. We will give you lyrics and see what you think. E in it. Curse you, brookside e in it. Your nefarious plans have succeeded. Nefarious . Are we still talking about chocolate . Brookside. Talk about delicious. 7 38. George lucas, big time movie director producers offers ape written apology to disney in connection to the star wars movie. He has been criticizing referring to the company as white slaves. And, during that interview he says he has sold his star wars character to white flavor. He followup question so he explained the comment and in the statement to disney executives he apologized saying he misspoke and he is really inappropriate analogy. Star wars creators sold lucas films to Walt Disney Company for more than 4 billion in 2012. Yes. You created it and it is your baby, your world, your vision and stop, take a paycheck but then you have second thoughts. The within of those things where he wishes he had it back. I cant believe what they did with my franchise. So steve harvey gets a mention in kanye west new song that he had to have written over the last 48 hours. New track is called, facts, and he is not alone, there is another big name dropped in these lyrics, so listen, it is a little bit of philadelphia in here, listen. Do anybody feel bad for bill cosby. Did he forget the name just like steve harvey. He brings up two events over the the last two weeks. Steve harvey screwing you up the the Miss Universe announcement. Yes. And bill cosby accusations. Exactly. He says do anybody feel bad for bill cosby . That was first part of the track. Then he a says do you forget names like steve harvey. Yesterday kim put it out there as she does so often on twitter. Thinks a seventh studio album and it will be titled switch. Stay with music here, also with the new release for the new year is take already swift. Yes, i know a lot of people love her even if you dont admit i.

It is now a new year, career now seven hours and 42 minutes into 2016 and i have blown my resolution. Do you want to get through some of them. It is a huge gift, back on the list and gun control. Texas is allowing licensed gun owners to carry handguns, openly in most public places. Wild, wild west again. Fortyfour other states allow open carry and some form. Okay. Some other laws here taking effect, here that are in effect right new in, 12 states workers will get, higher minimum wages, in new york state, new mothers, will get breastfeeding rights at work. How about california, anyone who rides a hoverboard in public, ouch. Hi mike. Must be at least 16 years old and youve got to wear a helmet, and can only ride on streets with a speed limit under 35 miles an hour. I think those are all good because otherwise you could get into traffic. Those are smart rules. Others would say to we need the government regulating our hoverboard use. I think so due to all of the falls. Are you feeling in the so good this morning . Maybe a little funny. Maybe too much to drink. Is there something you can do right new to make yourself feel better, sooner. Go back to bed. Quincy, is what up.

Lets look at these things. Different laws that took effect eight hours ago in our country. Some of them are kind of bizarre. Lets start with house bill 777, signed into law and it allows for more Prescription Drug a assistance for seniors. That is a good thing. Through the popular, pace net program. Card holders are able to retain their benefits which they would have lost since the the cost of living increase, they would have lost it. That is good news for them. Scandal at penn state involving former football coach Jerry Sandusky continued to rock both the university, and the state, in a response now, several new laws, were signed into law to help protect children. The new laws require background checks, and clearances for anyone, with direct contact with children. Twentysecond i shot this video. I dont like this law. The it means parent when you want to volunteer and read a book at your darn kids school you cannot do it unless you have all of those background checks and it cost money and whole hassle will to go through and it took me six hours to do it, and you too. Well, boo, hoo to you. I dent like that one. Last year, legislation was passed in pennsylvania, that made it easier for towns to sue over firearms and the the restrictions, gun advocates said it protected their rights, and kept them safe. Gun control advocates say it was illegal so this is called act 192, went into effect, in january, over a year ago today but by june the courts had already ruled it unconstitution because the legislation was, struck down, it is something to keep an eye on though, throughout this year in 2016. Will they reverse themselves. Also in november there was access denied signed into law to protect union members, workers, all employees from being harassed, threats in work place intimidation. Somehow there was a loop hole that prevented police i dont convenient in any situation involving a labor dispute. Even, in cases of harassment and intimidation. New law removes that loop hole and gives police the authority to intervene whenever they think it is necessary. And how about this, last year, Governor Tom Wolf signed into a law fraking Companies Access to treated mine water for their work. Thinks the the act is called act 47, fraking companies are no longer held responsible for impurities that may have snuck into the the previously treated, mine water. Fraking uses what the tore blast open into the earth to get to oil reserves. It is frown upon by environmentalist but more fraking could lead to more jobs in the state, so it is that battle back and fourth. Between jobs and the environment. Womb, boom, boom.

It blew up there were a couple of explosions, and then this fire erupted, and this is right around their midnight, right when celebration where is happening for new years. So there is still no official cause on what started this whole fire. It is a 63 story building. It is right next to the tallest building in the world and what they call it is the a address hotel. The address hotel is the name of it. The address. And then explosions were all started. You can hear. It was 10 00 oclock their time in the evening. But then they went ahead and put on a fire works display there were 14 people injured trying to run out of hotel and they fell over each other but not seriously hurt.

It wasnt a big message, just friend and fans thank you. It is first time he has talk since he was charged and there it is,. Simple. So that is first tweet he a has made a at all since august. Exactly right. That tweet comes a day after bill cosby was charged in Montgomery County with sexually assaulting a then Temple University employee at his home in early, 2004. He has said the encounter was consensual, his attorney, one of his attorneys, right there, is going on the a attack calling the arrest a flawed politically motivated case that will not hold up in court. She says bill cosby is in good spirits and will be exonerated. He looked pretty frail at that hearing. Nationwide power ball jackpot continues to grow, no one won it wednesday night, so the next drawing is tomorrow night. How big will it be . 334 milliondollar. It may go higher if we dont keep shoving money into this thing. Maybe 340. Even with no grand prize winner, is there somebody from our area who we dont know who they are at this point, a milliondollar richer. So this person stopped over at sunoco. They went up there right there by cottman avenue, ticket matched all five of the white ball numbers from the drawing but not the red power ball number. What do you think that person is doing right now. Freaking out. I hope they kept ticket. Sometimes ill have Lottery Ticket ton my desk for a year and not the go see if they won or not. We play in the group pool and no one says we hit i dont even look at things. Now im saying we should. You can win money. Someone else dit in erie county. In erie county somebody had a ticket that is worth 150,000. You shouldnt just toss them because if you have enough numbers right you could win some money. Yes. I have heard the person that got the the ticket at cottman avenue sunoco has in the come forward just yet. Maybe meeting with someone like dan, standing right over there. New years does not have to mean out with the old. Our financial guy, din rick cot owe tells us what items we should keep and repair and in the throw out. Like maybe a washing machine. Umhmm.

Savings are up. Which makes the checkout lane, victory lane. My giant. On the first day of the year, the month that just ended is in the record books december 2015, warmest december we have ever, ever, had. And boy did we bust the old record which was 44. 5 degrees, the average temperature for the month and that was setback in 1923. This in the the one that just passed 51 degrees was the average temperature. We have had above normal temperatures ever since november 24th and now new years here, everything will change. It will get colder. New year, new weather pattern with cold air coming across those great lakes which havent frozen yet. They are getting lake effect snow to the the north, rain to the south us but we are under influence have of High Pressure and that means it stays dry. We could see a few flurries, streaming down from very far away. It has been men to happen but in the likely. 44 degrees today. Fortythree tomorrow. Fortyfive on sunday. So, it is still a couple of degrees above the average high of 41 but appropriately chilly for winter. Then we will get too cold, below average temperatures on monday, and tuesday of next week and Tuesday Morning we get off to a frigid start with a low temperature in the morning of 21 degrees. We will get back in the 40s, by wednesday, and thursday, of next week. Basically as you can see from the seven day forecast we will have to get used to cold temperatures all over again. That is your seven day from the Weather Authority. Now time to check traffic. We will start off with, every roadway we look at there are hard any any cars. Everybody sleeping in this doubt this morning. Roosevelt boulevard looks good mass transit all Services Running on sunday or holiday schedule. The broad street line, because of the parade, running every every eight to ten minutes this morning. Lots of people want to see that parade. Okay. Here we go, what are we eight hours and 16 minutes in the the new year. So do you keep stuff that is broken around the house. Do you try to repair it or replace it there are certain items you should keep. You know it remind me of this have movie clip do you remember this. I think he is trying to bite me. I love this movie, i watch it every time. So this carries going testify to be replaced, right. So lets break down other things that may be replaced or repaired. Dan, good morning to you. Happy new you year. I am here to save a lot of folks this year will have fun doing it saving money what should we repair . Now that car looks unrepairable but a lot of cars should be repaired and in the thrown out. Absolutely right. Guys used to laugh when i pulled up in my wifes old minivan. Lasted 11 years, 200,000 miles. That was 200 a movement did you know average new car depreciates 22 percent the first year. So heres the rule, if you can hold on to that car and repair it, rule of thumb is if the repair is 50 percent more than the the carries worth then it is time to see it go. Otherwise you want to stay in that old ride as long as you can because it makes it even. I get this from alex holley who sits next to me every day, you can always tell a guy by his shoes, if they are all scuffed up. When im in the wearing jeans i wear these shoes. Ivory placed the souls and heels of these shoes self times, why . Because i bought good quality shoes the first time. That is our tip this morning. You find yourself with good shoe repair person or good take already fit is clothing. The they cannulas a long time, if you buy them at a good deal. Now is a good time. Dont be a he el. So most clothes are throw away clothes. You buy good mens suit and car are karen can buy good clothes too. What about appliances we are looking at here. New were talking money. Everybody has washer, dryer, sue a says her microwave handle broke. Ivory placed two. Check out the a web site called repair clinic. Com, and repair clinic. Com, you can find part for your appliances. You you can find tips on how to fix the the stuff. Heres the deal, it is not that hard to fix, most repairs. Fit is electronic repair, you will to have replace it. Heres my rule of thumb. If the the new appliance is, a thousand dollars and repair is 500 or more get the new one. Half of it get the the new one. But tv, it used to be back in the day a tube would go out, we dont have tubes anymore. Tvs, computers, tablets these are things if they to break other than a crack screen, if they do break, toss them. Why . Because Technology Changes so much, it is just not worth to it get it fixed. The dont get extended warranties on those extend over the the years. It is a rip off good they asked do you want warranty. Pass it. Get the extended warranty on your iphone or Something Like that because they are very expensive and i care product, pretty good one. Also check out the third parties we have it on the screen this morning, square trade. Com for example has third Party Warranties that are pretty reasonable for certain things but skip tv warranty. Skip computer warranty, stuff like that. Hey good to see you you. Do you have any resolution. My resolution is to save everybody a lot of money. I will be a better husband, better dad, better man, how is that. I say the same thing every year. That is too hard be to a better man. Anyway, the the president of the you had has made a resolution, what he has planned for the next 12 months besides eating yogurt. Fire works celebrated a new year over San Francisco bay area look at that, gorgeous city, american 200,000 people took in this just off the port of San Francisco last night. Put it off in the barge in the bay. I think fire work shows are so fabulous over the water. We saw fire works from the barge in the bay. It took a team 20 people two days to set up the whole darn thing. It lasted 15 minutes. The boom, it was over. My gosh, it took 15 minutes for it to be over. Yes. We are trying to have our new years resolutions and thank you for sending yours and your questions in. But the president has in exception. Doug luzader, what does the president have planned for the next 12 months. Reporter beyond working on his golf game which appears to be much improved in recent years. Wow. Reporter president obama has a lengthy list of resolutions for 2016 and he will finish this vacation in 2016, with just over one year to advance his vision for america. We are going to squeeze every last ounce of progress that we can make, when i have the privilege as long as i have the privilege of holding this office. Reporter other big goal helping to defeat whatever republican end up winning the g. O. P. Nomination next year. He plays more golf last year then tiger woods. It is ridiculous. Reporter es specially fit is donald trump who appears get under the president s skin. I think we will have a strong democratic nominee. I think i will have a democratic successor. I will campaign very hard to make that happen for a whole variety of reasons. Reporter it would be essential to keep the president s agenda a intact in coming years but there in lies the dell case balancing act for the president , in 2016. Pushing items like gun control, transpacific trade deal and closing prison at Guantanamo Bay things that are controversial while at the same time making sure he doesnt alien potential democratic, independent voters come november. If he is serious about electing the democratic nominee he will have to find ways to be less controversial and appeal to the broader section of the public. Can he do it . I dont know. No one knows, but it is clear as his vacation wind to a close this weekend the the president will be looking ahead to a new year that could well determine what his legacy really will be. In washington, doug luzader, fox news. Do you think donald trump gets under his skin i dont think so. New years resolutions, we all make them but we dont keep them. We have an expert to help you this year. New years resolutions, we all make them. We rarely keep them. So, if you want some help. Yes, we do. Do you want some help. Yes, i want to exercise more, i want to find a better job that pays me more money or eat better, these are popular resolutions. You kind of look like that woman. We are looking at that with man. Couple weeks in the new year we fall off wagon, we dont follow through and we dont succeed. How do you get there. You should listen to marco, a pistorius well as a life coach and sometimes i listen to him on 103. 9, praise. Ten. 9. Doing a great job giving advice on that radio station. Help us out. I necessity what you will say. Well, you know what, the getting healthy, all that stuff is great, that is important. However you want to sometimes go deeper and figure out you why are doing these things. Number one you want to make sure you surround yourself with good friend. People who are, good at making it happen. Because they will help you stay on track, right. Yes, yes, they will help you stay on track, they will help you, really people who are doers who will accomplish a lot as well. Okay. So i might to have get rid of some of my friends. Maybe not get rid of them but add a few. Yes. Will you be my friend. Through go mike. Boom, were sit. Heres another thing you talk about on radio give back by using your talent and ability. Dont hide it under a bushel have of baskets. You want to do that. You want to give back. You dont want to just focus on yourself all year unless you just want to berth yourself to give back to others. You definitely want to do that. I want to give back to you. Thinks your camera over here. The one that says number one on it. That is you. Ill as look at you. How will that get me to the gym ape be in better shape if im giving back to others. I think if you are focused on having a better relationship with your spouse, you are looking for a relationship you want to be better, you want to be healthy, you want to look good, feel great. That is how you do it. You dont focus looking better for you but how will that impact other people. I necessity this will shock everybody. Yes. But you know how, sometimes, things have work out in my life. You pray bit. I know that is shock to go hear coming out of my mouth but it is the truth. Absolutely. That is very thing. Some people say you should do that first. But you you can never pray enough. You need to pray, pray, pray with people, and there are some things thaw can change on your own but then these thing that call for divine interception. You you know what else you have to do, just do it. Quit talking about it and doing it. Act. You know what i like, try to do something every day that helps you with your goal or if you cannot the do it every day at least once a week. That means in a year, 52 times you will than closer to your goal then were you at the beginning of the year. Should you reward yourself if you hit a goal. But only until you hit it. Once you hit that mark or that goal, then bad mistake to reward yourself before. You dont want to do that. I have heard people do, they physically write it down, and look at it every day, the goal. If you dont write down a goal, then there is no way to track it. You cannot track your goal. Make sure you write it. Make sure you have a list, post it where you can find it, see it, be reminded of it, it can be on your computer, dresser, just make sure you can see it. I think that is so true. You know what i hear, could you hang around during 9 00 oclock hour. Absolutely. If people have questions on twitter on facebook. I have some coming in people want to ask you some questions. Have a dialogue back and forth. On the Radio Program i do, people call in, we stop the music for two hours. Beam call n i give them answers. The i would love to do it.

We have not seen a temperature that low in a long time. The that is your Weather Authority forecast. Lets get to traffic. Nothing to show you on ben franklin bridge, first of all, the traffic is none in existent today. You can count cars on one hand, that is schuylkill westbound past south street, all clear with no delays. Anywhere you need to go to check travel time 15 minute trip is right on time from the blue route to the vine on the schuylkill expressway, mike and karen. Is what number one resolution do you think every year. I think it ties get in shape and to go to the gym. We will have to shame him.
