Reporter good morning, mike and alex. Yes, this is shaping up to be one of the most critical weeks of the campaign. Here we have voters in four states weighing in today and then winner take all states in ohio and florida exactly one week from today. Dont forget the republicans will debate gannon thursday. The democrats tomorrow, and they took the same stage last night in michigan. At last nights fox news town hall a confidence Hillary Clinton seemed sure she would win her parties many in nation and that she would not be indicted by fbi for her use have the on private email server as secretary of the state. It was a mistake, however im not alone in that, many people in the government past and current of occasion or as a practice done the same. Clinton is heading in the primary with the comfortable delegate lead over bernie sanders. A Monmouth University poll gives clinton a 13point lead over sanitiers in michigan. State with the most delegates up for grabs to today. The as for the republicans, donald trump continues to dominate that same poll shows him with 36 percent of the vote in michigan, cruz at 23, kasich 21, marco rubio has fall tone fourth place with just 13 percent of the vote. That is why rubio campaigned, on focusing his home state of florida. They spoke, and asked rubio says he is not going anywhere. Donald trump will ask people to drop out. People are starting to learn donald trump the character and donald trump the person are not the same thing. Trumps character is focus on have the new ad flooding air waves in florida. The independent super pac is trying to use his use of profanity against him. Despite this massive effort to derail his campaign, trump appeared more confident then ever at a rally last night in mississippi. Do you swear that you will vote for donald trump tomorrow, raise that hand. I love you. I love you. And after months of speculation Michael Bloomberg announced yesterday that he will not be entering the president ial race. He believes if he did it will lead to trump or cruz lead nothing november and he says that is a risk he is in the willing to take. He doesnt want either one of them. A a lot of people were hoping wow get in. It would have been interesting. It has already been interesting. That is true. Kristin, great job, we will see you tomorrow. See you, have a good one. All right. You too. Well at 7 12 im ready to hear about the wonderful weather. 70 degrees. Yes, it is eighth day of march and i think it is time to start our count down to spring because it is home 12 days away that we are officially going to be in springtime but it will feel like it earlier then that. 12 30 in the morning sunday march 20th had that is vernal equinox and official start of the spring but already we are experiencing the feeling of spring allergies. Juniper is the major offender out there right now and it is medium levels today and tomorrow, medium to high on thursday and friday. The only possible down side to the amazing temperatures we will have over the next couple of days. A a few cloud around is what is being reflected on ultimate Doppler Radar. No reports of precipitation but you you will notice, it is in the as chilly as it was yesterday at this time. 49 degrees in philadelphia a. Fortyfive in wilmington and dover. 46 degrees in wildwood. Winds will eventually becoming out of the southwest which is why were expecting such great warm up. Twenty to 25 degrees above normal will be our temperatures over the next couple days. We will break all kind of record, most of these records for wednesdays date and thursdays date the ninth and tenth were setback in 2006, ten years ago when we had an unusually mild march, midmarch as well. So nine today, ten tomorrow, ten on thursday with temperatures in the mid to upper 70s by then. We will get cooler but still well above average on friday. By saturday when we are ready to change time because we will get today light saving time saturday night into sunday, 60. Sixtyfive on sunday. Yes, there is a chance of showers for the parade but we are still working on. That we still have time, bob kelly for that leprechaun to do his dance this in dry weather. 7 15. Good morning, everybody. We are taking a live look right now at the blue route, 476 starting to see volume between mid county, heading down towards that schuylkill expressway, jammo on i95 southbound from cottman avenue into girard. We are running with 20 minute delays on patco high speed line and septas west trenton Regional Rail line. A an accident northbound lanes of 295 at exit number 20, that is thoroughfare just to give an idea. Last nights accident that involved the trooper occurred right here at exit 23. Just a 3mile stretch here, southbound lanes are opened, crash we are looking at right now is northbound the at exit number 20. For the gang in brideberg that new ramp closure ine george for next couple weeks. Come over betsy ross bridge into philadelphia, it is richmond street off ramp is closed, so we have to jump on to i95 and take that north to bridge street. The that is throwing everybody for a loop there and extra volume and the flower show, throwing some extra volume here in downtown philadelphia, around the Convention Center. Mike, back over to you. Bob kelly, lets talk eagles, big news yesterday next among biggest acquisitions by chip kelly during his time as coach and general manager. Im not the general manager. The just one year later they are all gone. They are out. A deal is in place to send Demarco Murray to the the tennessee titans, good luck with that. Reports are that Byron Maxwell and kiko alonzo will be, miami dolphins. The these deals cannot be totally talked about by the teams until 4 00 oclock tomorrow afternoon. Here for a reaction we have dave uram from 94 wip, and sean bell from fox 29, and math the math lombard owe down there from the fanatic. Good to have you in. Yes. This remind me of like your brotherinlaw named chip has been sleeping on your couch for like three years, all right cue that. There he is. He is in a barco lounger, or whatever. So now after three years he is gone. We want to get rid of the couch. Right it stinks. Is that a horrible a analogy or what. Are we go to go get rid of chip kelly players. It is a good analogy. It doesnt mean it was a smart move. Well, tell me. It doesnt add up with the eagles are doing. They resigned bradford last week which i was in favor of despite two year deal. Then this week they get rid of the bunch of players probably just for draft picks. Who is going to play around bradford . Who are his weapons on offense. Demarco murray had a bad year, no doubt about it. I would have like to seen what he can do in Doug Pedersons offence. On the defensive side billy davis is one of the worst defensive coordinators ever. From last year. Wouldnt it prob to see if kiko alonzo who has some upside can play in jim schwartz or Byron Maxwell better. I think maxwell can do better in a 4 3 instead of the 3 4. Jim schwartz defense is predicated on speed on the outside which Byron Maxwell is not a speedy corner. A as far as money goes, they have freed up ten milliondollar in cap space. Only ten teams had less cap space then eagles did go going in to yesterday. You free up that room, they have 27 milliondollar to spend now, Demarco Murray was a shocked fighter. Kiko a alonzo looked lost. I love these moves. I think they will bring in players that are better scheme fit and take off less money to build. You dont like the move, shawn. It is like you get the a new girl friend. Okay. All of your old boyfriends stuff has got to go. That tshirt you liked sleeping in, it is gone. Birthday card. Even those earrings. I dont care if they shine bright, look pretty. You are wearing my tshirt to sleep. You are posting my cards on the refrigerator and every where. That is what this is. Demarco, all those guys, old tshirts, you got to go. I know you dont like the move. Where is the talent coming from . First of all, they didnt do much anyway . But this means there is a lot more moves to make. Criticize this off season what you are doing now because unaudible. First of all do you you trust Howie Roseman to make these moves based on what he has done in the past. I dont trust moves he did beforehand and i dont trust the moves he did now. But the head coach has a plan. I will take it to another level. Jeffery laurie talked about accountability, talk about accountability at his press conference with doug pederson. When is he going to hold Howie Roseman accountable . When will he hold himself accountable. In the past six years back to the dream team, they have done four different make overs out of six years. The dream team was one, when chip came here that was number two because they really changed the defense a a lot. When chip took over personnel that was three. The last year big change over. Now howie is back and it is four. But you have room to fletcher cox. Room to dip in free agency and bring in a whitehead who is a better fit for sports scheme then kiko alonzo. You have room to draft a running back. There is no reason to spend 45 milliondollar on a running back of Demarco Murrays caliber at this state in his career. I want to put up a picture of shady mccoy and Desean Jackson the other night. I think floyd may weather may have been with him. Yesterday when we put this up people got on the web site and fast book and twitter saying bring shady back. Bring desean back. Think about that. You got divorced and you you are never going back. The it is what it is. It was nice, you got that nasty, ugly divorce. You are not going back to the old girl. It was great. Think about this for a second. Eagles trade add way lesean mccoy and got back a draft pick for the best running back in the history of your franchise. 900 rushing yard, 200 more yard than Demarco Murray. Carlos williams was a Better Running back. You dont need to spend that kind of money on the running back position. Eagles freed up ten milliondollar in cap space yesterday. 10 million. Howie roseman somehow convinced the titans to take on Demarco Murray, Byron Maxwell, they convinced him to restructure to go to the dolphins. He should get executive of year for what he has done. Executive of year. Yes. Okay. They will not be good. Do you think they will be good. These two are not that far away. It is in the beautiful but not the worst move. I say that tongue and cheek. If you can convince an organization to take on those contracts you are doing something right. First of all something that has not been brought up, Demarco Murray. I have to move you out of here. Demarco murray. Unaudible. Somebody need to execute and take on that contract and that running back. Im just saying. Somebody want the old girl back, i guess it was that good, that you want her back. Thanks for coming in. Thank you. The draft is a long way down the road. We will see. It looks like a quarterback out of cal. I dont want him. No first round quarterbacks or wide receivers. Are you good. Were cool. Listen to this. What do you think of Payton Manning taking off. He cried a little bit. Stop it. There is payton. He cried. Do you want to hear his press conference before he cried. We will play that for you. This is my last day here at fox 29. It is. I have decided to become an airline pilot. I hear anybody can get on the plane and fly that thing. Jet blue would i like to fly for jet blue, lauren, do i need experience. Anybody can. They will test your critical thinking, your hand eye coordination and eventually teach you how to fly and they will do so over four years if you make very Selective Program they are currently taking applications, 24 will be select, and anybody, even with in flying experience can eventually become a pilot and fly, 100 people in a passenger jet. Why is jet blue doing this. First of all, training to become a pilot is some timed restrict, expensive, you need certain critical reflexes. Not everybody has access to those resources. Is there a Pilot Shortage and hitting regional and small are airlines more than the big carriers but sometimes big carriers rely on those pilots to make their way up and fly for jet blue when you come from smaller name. If you have fewer as a lower level you will not have as many to compete at the big level. Jet blue is helping out. They are training just about anybody. Normally, Fighter Pilots and military and they transition into the airlines but again, not all those planes. That is still happening it is still happening. That is still happeningy didnt realize there was a Pilot Shortage and jet blue coming up with this eye tea. Twentyfour lucky people. Are we lucky. Lauren, we will see you tomorrow. Thank you you for. That we had to keep that short because of our breaking news. We lost a state trooper out the of new jersey. We are taking a live look at coupe are hospital in camden where new jersey state trooper died after being hit the by a car, on 295, last night, was working a traffic stop there. Alongside of the road car came and hit him. Yeah, steve has an update the in about two and a half minutes. At clorox 2 weve turned removing stains into a science. Now pretreat with clorox 2 watch stains disappear right before your eyes. Remove 4 times more stains than detergent alone. When you think what does it look like . Is it becoming a better professor by being a more adventurous student . Is it one day giving your daughter the opportunity she deserves . Is it finally witnessing all the artistic wonders of the Natural World . Whatever your definition of success is, helping you pursue it, is ours. Tiaa. Back across the river to camden at cooper hospital. Steve, what do you have right now. Mike, cooper surgeons worked miracle in the past we remember them saving the life of the new jersey governor corzine, but sadly there was nothing they could do. Lets go to the video of the 31 yearold new jersey trooper sean cullen with the state police out of the belmount barracks hit and killed here on the scene of the previous crash on 295 where it is five lanes wide southbound, three lanes going south. Two lanes exiting for west deptford. He was walking near active car fire, several fire trucks and Police Vehicles with the flashing lights on already there. 22year old woman, distract for some reason driving by. Hit trooper cullen, and new lets go to the video of her vehicle as it spun around, windshield and front end smashed, from the impact, with trooper cullen, and his family and fellow troopers, got the news here, four hours after he was flown here at 8 30 right past midnight at 12 30, head of the state police rick fuentes corporal giving everybody in the waiting room the sad news that trooper cullen passed away just past midnight. Loss of the second young state troop inner three months here in south jersey, guys . Thanks so much, steve. We will keep you updated on this. Thirtyone yearold. This morning we are tracking developments in two high profile cases. A verdict reached in the erin andrews peeping case, so good morning to you. Good morning. And wrestler hulk hogan taking a stand against his web site gawker. Thises erin andrew when she learn of the verdict. Talk about hulk hogan over release of the sex tape with him and his former wife no, his best friend and his best friends former wife. So we will bring in angie hallum. Is there video of the hulk hogan in the courtroom testifying. He did testify yesterday. Break down this case, he went on the stand yesterday and basically this is a big thing of, does it out weigh his right to privacy. He is suing gawker for a violation of the privacy for defamation, for posting, the video of the sex tape that was taken, it is unclear whether he knew it was being taped, not being taped. It is from his former best friends wife. There were a number oven counters. And gawker has claimed that hulk hogan is in the media, in the past, and in connection with the sex tape, that he put his own sexuality, his own Sexual Conduct and they have a legitimate right to post video sent to them anonymously. Heres where it gets interesting. In this he says hey, im terry, ims not hulk hogan. They want to make clear when it comes to hulk hogan or Prosecutions Team that basically they are not the same person. It is a character. Im asking this way. This is what i get paid to do. Well, i think the distinction come to play in two different lights. If he is hulk hogan then maybe a sex video isnt so private because he is a character. Yes,. But on the other hand what he is saying im also a person. This is a private personal act. That should not have been posted publicly for everyone to view, those two minutes of the the video that was shown. However, when he testified on the stand yesterday, hulk hogan sort of talk about his person, with his character because when he was being questioned, about some previous inconsistent statements he made in the media that differ from his what he said when he testified on the stan. He said, and he put that out there why was it was in hulk hogan mode. I dont know what i was saying. For example when they say did you see sex tape. They say wait a minute in depositions previous interviews you said i have seen it. That is right. He also testified that he did not know that he was being taped at the time he had sexual encounter with his friends exwife, but then, in media interviews, as lawyers pointed out, well, actually, you have said the opposite, before. Yes, we will see how this goes, a hundred milliondollar for that one. Lets get the to the verdict for erin andrews case. She was awarded 55 milliondollar. She had been seeking 75 milliondollar after nude videos recorded by her admitted stalker through a hotel peephole were leaked and posted on line. We saw days of tearful testimony. And, the convicted stalker was found to be 51 percent at fault and ordered to pay 27 or 28 milliondollar. Now, westin help tell partners which owns and operates national marriott. They have 49 percent, and they are going to pay just over 26 million. Were you surprise by this verdict. I was than the surprised. The plaintiffs were after making a statement, making a statement a against Hotel Industry that they have an obligation to do a better job to protect privacy particularly of their high profile clientele which erin andrews was, because she had been in the media, and people knew you who she was. She was a public figure. Basically they are saying the hotel was negligent. They had a right to keep her privacy and they didnt do that. Yes. In an unreasonable way. Correct, that is what the the jury found. Jury found that obviously barrett was the person who was mostly at fault, and they did find 51 percent and he has that 28 milliondollar verdict against him. What is likelihood of her seeing the money because we know for him, he probably doesnt have 28 milliondollar. On the hotel side they will probably appeal this. It is possible, the represent and attorney for hotel havent said whether or not they will. They will analyze whether or not their chances of you can zest merit the litigation battle, cost of a appealing this this jurys verdict will be given a fair amount have of deference. If the record doesnt support the verdict the trial record, the testimony and evident, then they could have a chance, the Hotel Industry, could have a chance of a successful a appeal. But, you know, they have not said whether they are going to appeal. At this moment there is a verdict out there that this was worth, this privacy violation was worth 55 milliondollar. Some people said it is interesting because when it comes to wrongful death lawsuit they will get a milliondollar, people in car accidents, where they have, you know, injuries, they have had surgery for it, they didnt get anywhere close to 55 million. Is it just because she asked for 75, that is why there is a a big number here. Big number, big case, high profile, it impact is a a lot of different concerns, particularly privacy concerns staying as a guest in a hotel this was more about sending a message to the Hotel Industry that your obligations are to protect privacy of your clientele. Pretty loud message. Yes. Thank you. Good to see you. Coming up the at 7 37. A legend says good bye hear why Payton Manning says he has in regrets about his career as he announced his retirement.

As you know state trooper, 31 yearold state trooper died there last night, well, about midnight when they pronounced him dead after being hit by a koran 295. More on that story up next. 7 56. A shock ago announcement yesterday maria sharapova. Many people thought she would retire. She admitted that she failed a drug test at the australian open. For the past ten years i have been given a medicine by my doctor, and my family doctor, and a few days ago after i received the itf letter i found out that it also has another name of meldonium which difficult not know. Doctor mike what had is that. It is a medicine that is, manufactured in lath teave, not available here or europe and it is used to improve blood flow and circulation. The it works at a very, very molecular level, to decrease the effects of exercise causing problems with muscle aches and things like that. So it improves endurance, improves blood flow and that is why these organizations are saying, oh, wait a minute, this is a enhancement drug, this is something that is being used to make these athletes even better then they are. They can bounce back faster. Well, sure. When you are dealing with professionals like this every little, 1 percent makes a difference, and could mean difference between winning and losing. When she said i didnt know, my doctor gave it to me. I read some of the reasons why she was on it. She had a Family History of diabetes. I bet you she has like 1 ounce of fat on her entire body. She said that she felt ill a a a lot. I dont see that very much in her. And, i just dont think, i think that many people knew that this is something to help you, but. But it was fairly recently banned. She could use it were. Then all of a sudden, we will ban this. Her people say maybe they didnt get the memo, but i dont know. The dog ate it. The thing that is fascinating to me is she is leading, female athlete in the world and the amount of money that she brings in, i mean this will be a big issue, in terms of finances because she had has all of these contracts with nike and people are debating whether to stick with her or not. We will follow. That you know what i find more fascinating that we have somebody, bobby rydel and little girl, who is sharing a liver now, liver transplant, i dont think i knew you could transplant a uterus from one womans body in to another. Amazing. Im telling you, it is so cool to be in health care and science is conquering lots of things. There are a large number of women that either dont have a uterus or a uterus that doesnt work. This is the first woman in the United States to undergo a uterine transplant. So what happens is the uterus gets put in, they wait about a year to make sure everything is working right, connectioning are right, they have a child through in vitro fertilization, they have working on it, a csection and then they could have another one and after a period of time, take it out. Just take it out. Just like that. That way you are not on anti rejection drugs for so long. The daughter would not necessarily to have die then. No, not the at all. That is even better. It is a win, win, win you could donate your uterus. I do not have one. I have a very strong feminine side though. And we appreciate that. I love you. Love you thanks doctor mike. Tuesday march 8th, 2016. Im afraid we have more breaking news, updates for you. We are talking about the new jersey state trooper who was hit by a car last night around 8 00 oclock last night on 295. We have learn that state trooper has died. Yeah, dave kinchen is live at the state police barracks, in bellmawr, new jersey. We will get to him in seconds. Steve keeley has also been covering this story since last night at cooper hospital where we first learned that is where the state trooper was transported. All right. Who do you want to start with megan. Steve, go up, you are up. Reporter mike, i want to show you something our excellent assignment editor during our shift jackie, her hometowns Police Department west hampton in Burlington County. Jackie just let me know sean cullen was a former west hampton Police Officer. There is his old badge number they have sean cullen, end of watch, 3 8 2016. He was a local cop before he was a state trooper, in west hampton up in Burlington County right on route 130 at the 38 up there in west hampton, Burlington County. So a south jersey kid through and through and lets go to the video and tell you how this all happened for you people just waking up and getting this. Almost exactly 12 hours ago. Quarter after 8 00 p. M. , last night, the senior looking 295 south southbound a at west deptford exit. Very busy commit. You a can see in this video depending on how wide the shot is, two lanes for the exhibit there. It is five lanes wide. Before trooper cullen was hit and killed there was a previous accident. There were lots of Police Vehicles and lots of fire trucks with their flashing lights on, plus the vehicles and a active car fire. So all that was going on, and still a 22year old woman going by that scene fast enough, trooper cullen out Walking Around the scene hit the by this woman. The lets go to tape number two, a white four door sedan that we have from sky fox and you can see the damage from hitting trooper cullen, windshield smash, front end smashed, so he is flown here to cooper as trauma a center and just four hours later, 12 30 head of the new Jersey State Police Corporal Rick fuentes goes in the waiting room where sean cullens family and collogues from the barracks in bellmawr where he has been based for past two years are all gathered Holding Vigil hoping for the best. He delivers the worst news that he passed away from severe head injuries at 12 30 last night here at the Cooper Trauma Center where they have work miracles in the past including saving the life of governor jon corzine hurt in the severe accident in galloway on the garden state parkway way back when but not this time. This is the second young new jersey trooper killed in the line of cute any a car accident just since december 17th when they lost a young trooper from glassboro another south jersey kid who grew up to be a new jersey state trooper who died in a one car accident and Police Cruiser on a icy road in salem county just before christmas. An awful three months for the new Jersey State Police here in south jersey. Alex and mike. Steve, did you mention where trooper cullen was, what was his hometown. Reporter we dont know just yet, they gave us limited information in their early press release and nothing new since the word on facebook just around 6 00 oclock but if he was in west hampton chances are he was a local cop and local kid, grew up there and wanted to be a state trooper. Wow. Very sad. All right. 8 04. Now we will go to dave kinchen live at the new jersey state barracks in barracks, good morning, dave. Reporter very quiet scene here at bellmawr barracks of the new Jersey State Police. You can see some of the state trooper vehicles here. The building does not seem to have a lot of activity, a lot of people perhaps inside, they could still be either at the hospital where many Law Enforcement officers from several different agencies gathered to hold the vigil there or they could be in various locations, right now, this is an area where we could likely see some bunting set up, and also flowers and a wreath, to pay tribute to trooper cullen and his memory but, of course arc lot of people very shaken up and shocked here at the bellmawr barracks. We can tell you and as you probably heard steve keeley say trooper cullen was a member of the 154th state police class and stationed at bellmawr barracks here for about two years. It is a watch and wait situation here because the procession, the funeral procession, or i should say procession before the funeral may end upcoming to the barracks here but we also since we have learned that trooper cullen work as a Police Officer in west hampton at the Police Department there in Burlington County, perhaps that could be another spot on the procession. A a lot of these things typically work out as we speak and we are just waiting to see what happens. There could be a a press conference as well, that may happen if anyplace here at the barracks here in bellmawr. So we are still waiting on a lot of things to happen here. Quiet scene with you that could change with mourners coming in as people process this very, very sad information. Thanks, dave. 8 06 on this tuesday. We will get to sue. They are checking weather on this tuesday morning, and the first thing youll notice is it is milder outside today then yesterday, a and we have nine out of ten in your weather by the numbers. Not as cold with bus stop buddy. Took off gloves. Got flyers cap on. You still need a jacket as mess of the temperatures are still in the the 40s. It will warm up quickly. We have been seeing cloud around. There was a disturbance that came through this morning but it looks like that is out of here. You can see green on radar as a reflection of the cloud cover that is out there, so sun, clouds, and then now we are up to 51 degrees with the west southeasterly breeze at 6. Relative humidity at 59 percent. So this is quite the warm up that were expecting today, into the 70s, we have got to 61 yesterday after a very cold weekend. So, wrapped changes in our weather, and that taste of spring, yes, wrapped, sunset at 6 01 but it the looks like we will see plenty of sunshine today, of course, as bob knows that can be good and bad because of sun glare on the roads. We are starting to see that sun glare at 8 07. It is popping up here and delays popping up. Eastbound on the schuylkill jammed Sol Fred Conshohocken to downtown, tuesday mornings are always a busy, it seems like folks maybe work from home on a monday but tuesday, everybody is heading in the office. Southbound i95 heavy from cottman avenue down through girard through that Construction Zone and a accident on Strawberry Mansion right at Martin Luther king drive, watch it as that sun glare hit the drives hard yesterday right in the 8 00 oclock hour. Both kelly and mlks. Twenty minute delays on the both patco and west trenton Regional Rail line and then your delays on 422, again sun glare from oaks in toward 202 and a whooping 45 minute crawl on the turnpike from bensalem, all the way over to valley forge. Mike and alex, back over to youy will try to lighten things up on a tuesday morning. Did you ever know kids at school where their parents would be around them name at the house. We have never really talk with that. I have seen it. But when a kiddies young maybe zero to five, six years of age. They will run around the house name in front of the kid. Yes. So moms are bearing it all to this young blogger wants other moth tours keep it real and go nude around their children. Im not talking babies, im talking about toddlers in the five, six, seven years of age. Now the question is is there a point when you should cover up. As a baby what are they seeing anyway but at what age do you say it is time to put on some clothes. When they are a fetus it is okay to be a name. The as older kids is what were talking about. I think this is a good question on twitter and on facebook, at what age do you stop doing that. Not 21. But first how far is too far. A mom chains her son after finding out he is a bully at school. So she probably called him out. Question is that the the best parenting connect sneak . Would you do that publicly shame your kid. Has she turned into her own son that is a bully neat, mike deep thought. Yes. Thank you. Just by switching to progressive. So youll be bringing home the bacon in no time. Sorry. Get a free quote at progressive. Com. Welcome back. Moms and dad would you ever do this . A mother, blasts her own 12 yearold son on facebook for bullying a new girl in school, at his school and now many are calling her the bully. So, we took a shot of the post made by terry day evans. In it the she said her son jacob stumped on the girls foot so hard her shoe broke. She went on to say his birthday money would be used to buy the girl a new pair of shoes and also some flowers. You can see moms post here. If he steps out of the line again he would have to do chores for the girls family. This mom had a lot to say. Her name is terry day evans, and Doctor Foster is here. Good to see you. Yes, thank you for having me. So what did you think of the mothers behavior here posting this about her son. My first reaction was i get it. I can totally understand why she would be so horrified that this boy stepped on another girls foot so hard that she broke a heel of the shoe and that she wanted him to make it right. Yes, again. But do you think the point of airing everything outputting it the out there on facebook so everybody can see what you are doing with your child, shaping them. I disagree with that. I do not think that was an appropriate form. She could have handled this probably personally with the girl, her family and the school. Privately in other word. That facebook is all over the world now. Yes. It is in the just with her but parents have been doing this recently. We have heard about instances if the child does something wrong and they put him on the side of the road and holding a sign and they put it on social media. This is something we are starting to see with parents. Parents have to be careful they are not bullies and them being the bully and bullying their children is causing them to bully other people. Hurt people hurt people. Basically learning what their parents are doing. My parent did this to me when difficult something wrong. When did you something wrong i will do it to you. Mess bullies have bullies at home and it is acceptable behavior. I think you have to be careful and look at your own behavior and make sure you are not the bully and instilling those values in your child. What is the a appropriate way. You have a meeting with a teacher, a teacher calls you. Your son did this to you today. My goodness my son might be a bully. How should i hand that will with my child. First you need to figure out if the child is envious, jealous, learning disabilities, if the child is having depression, aggression, acting out. What is the cause . After you find the cause, then i do think you should hold your child accountable for mistreating another child. One thing that i like to do in my office is i say do you remember when were you beaten up . Do you remember when someone did this to you. How you would that make you feel . Would you like to do that to someone else. Nine times out of ten it is because they have difficulty problem solving or they are feeling low and jealous your practice, is that why people bully . Well, i mean they bully for Different Reasons but in children there is envy, a lot have of jealousy, if they are low performers, you know, if they want to just feel better about themselves they will make someone else feel pretty low. All right. So as a mom you would not post on facebook. I would not post on facebook but i like the fact that she wants him to replace her shoes and use his birthday money yes, exactly. Sometimes you have to start with an apology. Yes. Go over to her house, and apologize. Yes. No shaving heads. That is another thing we saw that in the video. Yes. Okay. Good to see you. Thank you you. I think they want tuesday talk a little bit more. Fine. Now up and running, here in the United States. So unless you people or services or product. It is called people. It is spelled differently. Like you peeple. Yes, basically. Less people on peeple, to review other users in a professional way, romantic way, people you know personally. I dont like it it is kind of like yelp. Yelp rates businesses. Really. So your neighbors, your coworkers, dates, yes. A lot of people are upset about this. They say okay, this is basically bullying and cyber revenge. Right. Heres the thing when it comes to the peeple app it will in the let other people wait people without their permission. Get in on this. I am allowing people to criticize me. Well, im not signing up then. You have people that are mad at you, mike. Yes. See what kitkat kline was wearing today our producer. We could talk about that, do you like this at all. No. No. Who would sign up. Well, ims in the signing up. I wouldnt sign up either. Unless i know you will talk great things about me. Do you know that for sure. What are you talking about, what . I ams writing a few things. Do you think the way things are going now with social media stuff, you want to be like, you want people to comment on what they are doing and now we wanted to be rated. Well, i see you posting selfies, now dont you know you you will get accepted or reject because of that post. That is the risk you you take when you put a selfie out there. You put yourself out there. You take selfie too. It is rare. That selfie was a four. I hope not. Okay. Do very well. So you are so beautiful. Mike is the best friend in the world. The mayor of the city. Yes good thank you. Hey, dolly parton what are you doing. Really after all these years dolly parton is going on her first major tour in 25 years, alex holley. Wow. So, of course, the singers web site says she is hit 60 cities, to sing classic and new songs. What do you mean both her classics. Both classics and new songs. I see. So when will this happen. Well, were not sure because tour dates have not been announced just yet. Would you go . Why not. Shes pretty good. She looked like that 25 years ago. She looks good, honey. Lets guess how old she is. Mike, that is not appropriate i will not participate in that game. How much does she weigh. Not that either. This is you why dont want to go on peeple. How much doing does that wig way. Rock fans were looking forward to the ac dc concert but now they will to have wait. Bandies putting the tour on hold because of the lead singer brian johnson. Okay. Blank. Doctors ordered him to stop performing live, and or he will completely lose his hearing. It is understandable. You need to hear to play music.

He is getting antsy. Judge said meek isnt a allow to rap or perform while on house arrest so his lawyers filed an appeal to change his sentence. Now why couldnt he still work as long as he still didnt leave his house. Tmz live has been talking about this saying the thought is to punish him, if you want to call it that. Is it punishment at your house and able to do music and make money. He does have a studio where he is saying. If you know where he is staying get on twitter and tell me. How would they know that he is recording in his studio, in the place where he is staying, looking through windows. Maybe he can secretly record but just not release it.

So lesean mccoy, ducking questions about last months big brawl in olde city at that night club. So he was a at a lakers game over the weekend in los angeles with Desean Jackson.

Do you like being able to see when driving the in the rain . Anybody that says no, please contact me on twitter. Seriously, sometimes it is hard in a major downpour. You you can thank a woman for this new invention. She says it is straight out of her female mind and a guy never could have invented this. Oh, come on. But first o. J. Simpson is now responding to the discovery of that knife found at his former estate why he says he is not stupid. He wouldnt have left it there. Katie the u. S. Has added 14 million new jobs since the Great Recession a good start. But too many families see the special interests gaining the upper hand in washington, while paychecks dont go far enough. If you work hard, your paycheck should show it; you earned Social Security it should be there when you retire. And you shouldnt have to go broke to afford college. Im Katie Mcginty and i approve this message because its your turn. He is dancing, his tallies moving. Yes, it is neat. Is that a farrow, i cannot tell. He is up early. Are you bird watching. Yes, yes. Kelly clarkson, remind me who doctor luke is. He is a produce shore worked with kesha and a lot of people are now talking about him because of lawsuit you the with him and kesha because she says he sexually assaulted her for ten years. She was 18 years old. Now shes 28. How about this, kelly clarkson, squeaky clean, says she was black mailed into working with that same producer by the name of doctor luke. She also says that he is not a nice guy. Coming from kelly. So, clarkson said her record label would not put out her alzawahiri bum unless she work with him. It was hard for her to do. She basically tried to make the best of it. He ended up producing this song since you have been gone and my live would suck without you. Since you have been gone is one of her biggest hits. He is a known producer. He knows what he is doing. But how he is doing it and way he goes about it. Wow, not a nice guy. O. J. Simpson burst into loud uncontrollable laughter when he heard lapd was testing a knife that was found at his former brentwood mansion as it was being demolish. This is according to the daily mail. So last week it was revealed that the weapon was kept as a souvenir by a retired cop for almost 18 years. O. J. Says if he had buried the knife, why didnt the cops see ground had been dug up. True. He also says im not that stupid, i got on the plane that night to chicago, that is all im going to say. It was a 15inch stiletto knife. I heard it was a buck knife. Were talking about a different knife now. The the stiletto knife was considered by prosecutors in the criminal trial and compared with the stab wound of nicole brown and ron goldman who died in 1994. But they never officially found any knife. They did find a knife behind a portrait inside of his house but they didnt think it was a murder weapon. The timing is incredibly interesting, everybody is talking about o. J. Simpson because of the show and now we have the knife. You think it is a publicity stunt. No, im just saying, just interesting. The timing. The Police Officer, apparently a construction worker demolishing this house walked it over to the offduty cop, who was on duty, he said.
