These are fairly substantial structures when theyre put up and we havent had any issues in the past. The accident comes just one day after a man died and more than a dozen were injured when high winds caused a tent to collapse during a sudden storm at a festival in the chicago suburbs. Now here in New Hampshire today theyre still trying to learn the seriousness and magnitude of the injuries suffered by the spectators and perhaps circus performers as well. We reached out to the operator of the circus, Walker Brothers international based in florida. So far nothing from them. No comment or response to what happened here. Matt and savannah back to you. Ron, thank you very much. From dangerous storms in the east to raging wildfires out west, crews are being pushed to the brink of exhaustion battling the rocky fire in Northern California and conditions there are not helping. Nbcs joe frier has the latest for us this morning. Good morning. Good morning, savannah. This fire now burned about 100 square miles. Right now 13,000 people remain evacuated. Every time firefighters begin to slow it down the flames seem to shift into something unexpected. The rocky fire is devouring newer in New Territory this morning after leaping over highway 20 in multiple spots. Thihi is not what firefighters wanted. The flames now burning on the north side of highway 20. The flames are unpredictable. Whipped up by winds in one direction one minute and another direction the next. Today i saw three or four different heads from the fire and each one was kind of leaning a little bit different direction. A lot of fire activity. Very active burning. From a helicopter flying over the scene you can see miles of charred land. An area at least twice as large as san francisco. A lot of firefighters have expressed they have never seen this in their career. Its burning with great intensity. Down below rick sanders is the only one in his neighborhood yet to evacuate. He stayed behind to defend his home of 30 years which rests flames. It has been almost this close before. Close. Its pretty hot fire. Probably scariest one that i think ive seen. His home is among 7,000 structures still at risk. Wildfires are burning across the drought stricken west with more than 20 major fires in california plus others to the north in washington and oregon. But its the rocky fire now 7 days old that wont be contained burning too close for comfort. Our team experienced the fires erratic behavior firsthand yesterday when the flames jumped over the highway we were well over a mile away but then we heard on the scanner the fire could be heading toward our direction in just 30 minutes time. Prompting our team to quickly evacuate as a precaution. Matt and savannah. It can just shift on a dime as we saw there. Thank you so much. Lets turn to politics now. Voters were given a taste of what they can expect in thursdays first republican president ial debate. During a Candidate Forum in New Hampshire last night. But the most talked about contender, donald trump wasnt there. Nbc National Correspondent Peter Alexander is in manchester. He has more. Hi peter. Reporter good morning to you. This is the end of the political preseason. The 2016 regular season kicks off thursday night. Just two days from now but here last night 14 republican rivals in this first primary state tested out their best talking points trying to nail down that Job Interview but among those missing, donald trump. Ahead of thursday nights debate the pregame warm up. 14 republican candidates sharing a single stage in New Hampshire. But donald trump skipped the forum touting his front runner status with a press release instead. Will you attack donald trump . No. My goal is to let people know what i think. Should donald trump have been here . It would have been nice but, you know, im sure he had something more important to do. The two hour forum played out like political speed dating. The gop contenders saving their best barbs for president obama and the clinton. She lied about benghazi. I have been dealing with this crowd for 20 years. Im fluent in clinton speak. When he says, bill says, i didnt have sex with that woman. He did. The latest republican turning to a stunt to distinguish himself. In texas we cook bacon a little differently than most folks. Cooking bacon on the barrel of a machine gun. Machine gun bacon. And now more red flags for Hillary Clintons campaign. The new nbc news wall street journal poll Shows Nearly Half of americans have a negative view of the former secretary of state. After almost 25 years in the National Spotlight clinton is trying to reintroduce herself once again with ads focussing on her late mother dorothy, her inspiration. When i think about why im doing this i think about my mother dorothy. Still up in the air whether joe biden will jump into the race. Sources telling nbc news the vp is still undecided. On tap today a private lunch with the president. No word if 2016 is on the menu. So where was donald trump last night . He said that he wasnt here because he thinks hes not going to get the local newspapers endorsement and he thought that 14 republicans was simply too many for a proper forum but matt he says that hes a nice guy and he will be there thursday night but he will only attack if someone hits him first. Peter alexander, peter, thank you very much. Lets bring in chuck todd. Nbcs political director and moderator of meet the press. Good morning to you. Good morning, matt. Have the latest bloomberg poll on the republican side. You factor that in with the four most recent other polls and you get a clear sense of who is is going to be on stage on thursday night. What jumps out . Well, the fact that Donald Trumps lead continues to grow. He really is consolidating at least sort of the antiwashington support inside the Republican Party and it really is just eclipsing everybody. By the way, matt, it does look like the 11th spot right now is where rick perry and if you believe fox and theyll speak to their ten cutoff he wouldnt make it but they dont like the idea of decimal points deciding 10 and 11 so more likely there will be an 11th podium thursday night. When you get donald trump standing in the center of the stage that makes that person a juicy target. What is the risk reward for another candidate taking him on directly . Well, look, the risk is if you attack him, he will counterpunch. He said it. He said it to me on sunday. Thats what he does. But he did say he doesnt plan on going on the attack first. And i think that that is sort of an interesting decision that some of the candidates make. Some of the ones in low Single Digits are incentivized to go after him because they want the moment or the tv highlight but if youre jeb bush or scott walker and youre playing the long game you probably dont want to get into a food fight with him although the moderators will try to set that up and that will be the most sense moments of the evening. Particularly bush versus trump. Imagine a nascar driver mentally preparing for a race knowing one of the drivers will be drunk. Thats what prepping for this debate will be like. Those are his words and not mine. Lets move on. Lets take a look at numbers from the latest nbc news wall street journal poll. These are favorability numbers for jeb bush and Hillary Clinton. I want you to understand something about jeb bush compared to mitt romney. Very similar candidacies. Theyre the establishment pick. Mitt romney was that guy four years and already jeb bush has higher negative ratings at this point in time in the campaign than mitt romney did. Mitt romney barely got the republican domination when there was this antiestablishment uprising and they went candidate shopping and ended up with san toir torum. He may have all the money in the world but right now hes in think. On the Hillary Clinton side her numbers . Her numbers, she has higher negatives, lower favorable ratings right now than at any point in time did Barrack Obama. So you have the two dynasty candidates and theyre in a worst position for Hillary Clinton than Barrack Obama ever was during his 8 years and for jeb bush already at a worst position than mitt romney was at this time and he struggled to get that nomination. The two dynasty candidates in an antiwashington atmosphere theyre struggling more than ever before. Chuck, thank you very much. Lets turn to tamron in for natalie and an arrest has been made in the shooting of a Police Officer. Yes we van update on that. Good morning, everyone. The man suspected of gunning down a Memphis Police officer is in custody this morning after an extensive manhunt. Police say 29yearold tremayne wilbourn turned himself into federal authorities in memphis on monday. Hes facing firstdegree murder charges in saturdays shooting death of officer sean bolton. He was shot multiple times after coming across a drug deal taking place in a car that was parked illegally. An outbreak of legionaires disease claimed the lives of several people here in new york city. More than 80 people have been diagnosed with the disease which is caused when water contaminated with a certain bacteria is inhaled into the lungs. The bacteria were discovered last week at a bronx hotel and in some hospital equipment. Some frightening moments in the netherlands monday when two massive construction cranes fell over on to a group of houses. The two heavy machines were lifting part of a bridge when they toppled over on to nearby residential buildings and a couple of businesses. Up to 20 people are believed to be injuried in that accident. Safety officials are still investigating it. And at least five cars were damaged by an unmanned run away garbage truck near pittsburgh. The driver and another trash collector stepped about 10 feet away from the truck when the brakes became disengaged. They were terrified surely. Thankfully no one was injured but thats what you call a bad day at work. For the first time this morning were hearing the dramatic details from a man that tread water for four hours off the coast of new jersey. Hoisted to safety in the dead of night. Lucky to be alive. After falling overboard this man had been swimming for four hours, 44 miles off the coast of new jersey. The boat went this way and i fell right out. Freezing cold without a life jacket praying for a miracle. It was a big thunderstorm. Giant bolts of lightning and just waves that were huge. What started as a fun day of fishing with a friend turned into every sailors worst nightmare. By the time i came out of the water i saw the boat and it kept going. Man overboard. The wind was so bad a. It was blowing me back or it was blowing the ship away from me. Nearly drowning he says he swam about ten miles. I coughed water out of my lungs so many times and all i would have had to do was just take one breath of water and it was over. Numb from the cold and cramping up thoughts of his family were what kept him alive. I just couldnt picture the next day somebody coming to tell them that im not going to be home anymore because i knew it would ruin their lives. I almost lost my whole world. I love him more than anything. Finally reunited with his boat his friend threw him a lifeline and then this daring coast guard rescue air lifted him to the hospital where he made a full recovery. Im just happy to be here. I really am. I bet he is. Its an incredible story matt and savannah. Without that coast guard video a lot of times people dont believe its humanly possible for you to survive in those conditions but there it is on video with him being rescued. Physical stamina and mental stamina. Thinking about his family kept him alive. Thank you. Good news for the folks down in florida. They need some.

My moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis made a simple trip to the Grocery Store anything but simple. So finally, i had an important conversation with my dermatologist about humira. He explained that humira works inside my body to target and help block a specific source of inflammation that contributes to my symptoms. In clinical trials, most adults saw 75 skin clearance. And the majority were clear or almost clear in just 4 months. Humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. Serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened; as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. Before treatment, get tested for tb. Tell your doctor if youve been to areas where certain fungal infections are common, and if youve had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have flulike symptoms or sores. Dont start humira if you have an infection. Ask your dermatologist about humira. Because with humira clearer skin is possible.

Kate, good morning to you. The night a gunman opened fire in the Lafayette Theater the comedian tweeted her heart was broken.

She choked up talking about the women who were shot dead. Im not sure why he chose my movie but it was personal for me. Unless something is done and done soon dangerous people will continue to get their hands on guns. We know what can happen when they do. Reporter after the shooting in lafayette the daughter of a teacher who survived the sandy hook massacre wrote an open online letter to schumer urging her to take up the cause. Sarah clemons called her this generations epitome of what it means to be a strong, powerful, selfaware champion, adding we need your help. Schumer tweeted, dont worry. Im on it. Youll see.

I have to go through this again next month . See you then. Can i have a gun . Yep. Reporter her voice on the issue turning from parody to pledge. I can promise you these will not be my last.

Several airlines announcing their planes will no longer be used to ship certain animal trophies. Could this be the beginning of the end for big game hunting . Gabe gutierrez is at an Animal Sanctuary in locust grove, georgia. Good morning. Reporter there are two lions here and other exotic animals. These are amazing creatures. Now there is an International Debate over whether big game hunting should be outlawed completely. This morning the global backlash against the killing of cecil the lion is growing. United and American Airlines banning shipment of hunting trophies just hours after delta announced a similar ban. I dont know why anybody wants those trophies. I just dont. If you are not going to eat it, why kill it . Reporter zimbabwe is seeking the extradition of walter palmer, the minnesota dentist accused of killing cecil. Palmer maintains everything about this trip was legal and properly handled to his knowledge. Now a second american doctor from pittsburgh is in the spotlight for a trophy hunt. His guide has been arrested and charged with hunting without a permit. On social media mounting outrage against big game hunts like Rebecca Francis and Kendall Jones who posted pictures of kills. One critic writing wonder how people like Rebecca Francis, and Kendall Jones live with themselves. This is not a story about good and bad guys. This is how humanity wants to interact in the long run with nature. I think this is a historic moment. Reporter a 2009 report by a Conservation Group estimates tourists kill 105,000 animals in africa every year, a business that generates about 200 million. Advocates sabaning big game hunting would be a knee jerk reaction and a mistake. The fastest way to threaten a species is to quit hunting it. There is value on the animals because people want to pursue them and they are willing to pay money to do it. The money goes into the conservation of the animal. Reporter for now zimbabwe has suspended big game hunting but has not banned it outright. Overnight nbc news reached the hunter accused of helping the minnesota dentist kill cecil. That local hunter defended the hunt and reiterated he felt he did nothing wrong. Matt . Gabe gutierrez, thank you very much. Lets get a check of the weather from mr. Orange seersucker himself, looking dapper. Its warm out now. Nowhere near as bad as what we got for our friends in california. The drought continues and really the part of california is hard hit. Tulare county where much of our growing takes place. 5,000 families are without running water. The wells have run dry and they have no way to refill. Right now as far as drought is concerned more than 35 of the state is in exceptional drought. The big problem is there is so little rain thats fallen since january 1. For example, fresno has only far. 40 for the year in los angeles. San francisco, 22 . As you might imagine thats why the wildfires have been running rampant. As you saw in joe fryers report we had firenados. Nature creates a vacuum. Super heated air rises rapidly during the wildfire. These are generally thin. They are tall though. About 100 feet going into the air. They can really generate rapidly. Rest of the country, a risk of strong storms in the Central Plains and along the northeast coast into the Midatlantic States and wet in florida. Nowhere near as bad as they have been seeing over the past 21 days, 20 have had heavy rain. Thank you very much. The heavy rain moved east now. Showers and storms are exiting. Clouds giving way to sunshine at times. Nogs more than a spot shower north and west of the city. Very warm day in the upper 80s. Turns breezy and humidity come down too. Clearing skies tonight. 50s and 60s in the suburbs. Tomorrow, a good deal of sunshine and warm with low humidity. High temperature of 86. Low 80s on thursday. Rain and wind friday and saturday.

We have to have hand warmers at this desk because its so cold. A lot of people are having the issue at their offices. Men think its fine, women are freezing. Now we know why. There is a new study and jenna wolf has been looking into it. Whats going on . We have been arguing about it for decades, hundreds of years. Its a big conversation. Its 100 outside but you find yourself carrying a sweater, two sweaters and layers to work and a blanket when you get there. The men cant relate but your female coworkers know what we are talking about. A new study getting to the root of the reason for the great Office Temperature debate. Hot enough for you . Turn up the a. C. . Its blazing. There is no relief in sight. Hot town, item summer in the city. You need long sleeves, a blanket and a blazer. Just in case. It could be a hundred degrees outside. It feels like the north pole in here. This is at your desk throughout the summer . Sometimes there is shivering. Reporter an old formula may be to blame for the tussle over Office Temperatures. A new study says the temperatures in many Office Buildings are determined by an outdated and inaccurate model developed in the 1960s based on the resting Metabolic Rate of a 154 pound 40yearold man. Fast forward and half of the work force is female but the thermostats havent budged. The great air conditioning debate isnt just in your head. Finding that in general females prefer a higher Room Temperature than males in home and office situations. Thats 77 degrees for a woman. Compared to a cool 71. 6 for men. Women tend to have lower basal Metabolic Rates and burn off energy slower. They burn off heat more slowly and are colder. Their arms may be out. They may have skirts on. Men wear layers with jacket and suits. Its more likely the difference will be pronounced. Reporter its a battle of end soon. There is truth to that. We are wearing short sleeves and shirts. We have to dress like them to be comfortable . We have to take off the jacket to dress like you. The delays love it. Magic mike. You money there are suggestions from experts to keep cool without spending a ton. Turn your thermostats up. Every degree above 78 saves you 2 on your energy bill. Every degree below costs you an additional 6 . Avoid putting tvs and lamps next to your thermostat. You will pay more there. And maintain your air conditioning. Cleaning filters helps improve it 15 . We save money. You are more efficient. So better . Absolutely, yes. The better gender. Glad we had the talk. We have known that. But nothing will change. Thank you, jenna. Nice to have you here. Looking for a date . We have the top five cheesy pickup line that is work. Tamron has heard every one of them. Right. Are you my thermostat . I want to turn you up. Did frozen help china land the Winter Olympics . Carson explains after this. Its close. Are you cold . Yeah. I sure had a lot on my mind when i got out of the hospital after a dvt blood clot. What about my family . My lil buddy . And what if this happened again . I was given warfarin in the hospital but i wondered if this was the right treatment for me. Then my doctor told me about eliquis. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots and reduces the risk of them happening again. Pnot only does eliquis treat dvt and pe blood clots, t but eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding v than the standard treatment. Knowing eliquis had both. Turned around my thinking. Pdont stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. Peliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Pdont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. Pif you had a spinal injection while on eliquis pcall your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. Pwhile taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily. Pand it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. Pseek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Peliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Ptell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. V eliquis treats dvt pe blood clots. V plus had less major bleeding. Both made switching to eliquis right for me. Ask your doctor if its right for you. Flonase allergy relief nasal spray outperforms the 1 nondrowsy allergy pill.

We are back with something curious tied to beijings selection to host the 2022 Winter Olympics. Carson . If you see behind me this is when they announced it. Excitement in the room on friday. Beijing announced the host city for the Winter Olympics in 2022. As part of the bid beijing submitted ten official songs, one of those songs that sparked discussion online is called the snow and ice dance. Lend me your ears and listen. Sound familiar . A lot of people, that sounds like another popular snowy number. Take a listen. Its the same song. Okay. Good, matt. A lot of people think that. People posted memes. Watch this.

The tent came down as a storm moved through the area with large hail and 60 mileperhour winds. The tragedy came just one day after a man was killed when the tent blew down in a Music Festival in chicago. The Northern California wildfires have jumped over the bigst barrier, highway 20 in several spots. Shifting winds keep causing the fire to change direction. It already burned 100 square miles of dry brush and destroyed two dozen homes. There are 20 major fires burning in california with others in Washington State and oregon. A kentucky Sheriffs Office is facing a federal lawsuit after two children with disabilities were handcuffed at school for misbehaving. John yang has the story which includes video that might be difficult to watch. Reporter the aclu says the video was taken by School Personnel at an Elementary School in covington, kentucky, outside cincinnati. That hurts reporter the sheriffs deputy can he seen handcuffing a boys harms behind him above his elbows. The suit filed monday says he was an 8yearold third grader diagnosed with post Traumatic Stress zrord and attention deficit hyperactive disorder. He was sent to the vice Principals Office last november after having disability related difficulties obeying his teacher. Do what we asked you to or you can yes. The suit says the boy had swung his arm and attempted to strike him with his elbow. We dont think handcuffs at the biceps are the way to treat an 8yearold child even if the child is emotionally distraught. They allege that he handcuffed a 9yearold girl with adhd at another school after she didnt obey a teacher. Children with disabilities should not be handcuffed. Especially when their behavior is related to their disability. The Sheriffs Office declined to comment because the litigation is pending. He didnt respond to telephone messages. Civil rights advocates question why police are dealing with young students, even those without disabilities. Instead of treating things like garden variety discipline, they treat them like Law Enforcement problems. And it leads to the kind of inappropriate response that we saw here. Reporter the could having Ton School District which is not named in the suit declined to comment on the incidents as a federal court is now being asked whether it violated his constitutional rights. For today, john yang, nbc news, chicago. Dramatic video shows two Police Officers saving a mans life with just seconds to spare. Vehicle appeared to get stuck on train tracks in sunnyvale, california this is on monday. Deputies responding to a nearby call saw the driver still in the car.

Chanel jones is here with new findings. Good morning. The American Cancer Society has new research that says yoyo dieting feared to be a risk of cancer is not linked to the disease which may mean a sigh of relief for half of american whos say they are trying to lose weight. Channing tatum danced his way to stardom in magic mike but he says soon after the film he packed on the pounds and he has a name for it. Me and my wife like to call it i am very fappy. That didnt last long. Magic mike two ment he was dieting again. This time he lost nearly 30 pounds. Its an all too familiar weight loss story. Most of us are yoyo dieters. Nearly 90 of people cannot keep off the weight exhibitly that they lost. Being overweight as well as obesity is a well studied risk factor for cancer. Studies in animals and humans suggested there may also be a link to cancer from yoyo dieting or weight cycling. By definition that, means losing ten pounds or more and gaining it back again. The fear was that the stress on the body caused inflame mags and immune system challenges linking it to kaerns. But the upside, the american kans er cancer sow side says no risk. Yoyo dieting is not associated with overall cancer risk. This is good news for people who are trying to lose weight or if we tried to lose weight and failed. Try again. Its always better to try and lose some weight and keep it off than not try at all. Reporter the study which fald more than 100,000 people for close to two decades is the largest and most comprehensive study of weight cycling and cancer risk conducted to date. Still, cautioning many who think this is a green light to yoyo dieting. A solution is manage your expectations, try to lose a smaller amount of weight and keep that off. Its better than going back and forth. Reporter and while hollywood has a longs hist histories of stars dieting for movie roles, nutritionists say set modest expectations. Losing weight is one thing, keeping it off is harder. Al thoet American Cancer Society says there is no link between yoyo dieting and cancer. Nutritionists suggest a steady course of diet habits. Aim for a modest weight loss f lowering calories, do it slowly. Change your overall lifestyle, meaning activity levels and listen to this what, when, and why you eat. Thats good for a lot of us.

He added, i promise you if i ever decide to divorce my queen, ill tell you myself. She said my king has spoken. Its awful that people have to go on and defend themselves and set the record straight. Finally, billy joel in a different split, a proposed tribute to him is dividing a community. Bill sli from long island. Some politicians want to rename a stretch of highway billow y joel boulevard. Some law makers are actually against it. You might be wondering why. Thats because billy joel is still alive.

Give them life while he with enjoy it. That will be great. Hes billy joel. I agree. Why wait . There you go. That is your pop start today. Thank you. Lets get that weather. All right. Lets show you what we got going on for today. Were looking at heavy showers and thunderstorms firing up in the midsection of the country. Pretty good boomers moved through this morning. Moved through the northeast. We may see more fire up again later on today. Afternoon temperatures, the heat continues down in texas. Dallas going to continue well above 100. And Southern California on into parts of the desert southwest, temperatures in the one teens. Cooler weather making its way through the great lakes. We have a risk of storms through the northeast and northern florida. The sunshine continues along the west coast. They would desperately love to get some pretty good rain. Nice tropical rain could bring al, thanks very much. Temperatures generally between 70 and 75 around the five boroughs after a raincooled morning and generally upper 60s to the north and west. Clouds thinning out especially west of the city. Showers exiting. A sprinkle here or there the next hour or two. Look for increasing amounts of sunshine going into the afternoon.

Al, thank you. Now to our summer of secrets and the newest trends in Plastic Surgery. This morning, noninvasive options for people who hope to slow the aging process. Todays erica hill is here with what you need to know. Good morning. Savannah, good morning. Cosmetic procedures have come a long way. As the options grow and change, so, too, does the clientele. Many people now inspired to give it a shot because the results can come that much quicker. Its an ever evolving quest for the fountain of youth. I just want them to pop more. I wanted to feel rejuvinated. I want to keep things up as much as i can. Keeping up has become much easier thanks to new procedures that offer the look of a nip and tuck without the knife. Lance now in his 60s opted for treatment two years ago. They insert a heated needle under the skin and burn the underlayer and it retracts the skin and gives you a face lift. Ivy wanted her waist back. Diet and exercise werent working. Liposuction scared her. This is her tenth treatment with vanquish. It uses microwaves to sap your fat. Im ecstatic. Im buying pants two sizes smaller. Plastic surgeon has seen a rise in patients looking to take advantage of these nonsurgical options. More and more what patients are really looking for, things with little down time. And some with botox brow lift are temporary. I feel like in case i dont like it or if i want more. So it kind of gives me that option. Thats what made me fall in love with makeup. Kit transform you. Im hoping this can do the same. Dermatologists say manufacture the less invasive quicker options are increasingly attractive to men. As men tend to age and gravity kicks in, kind of takes away some of the youthfulness and their competitiveness. Thats where a lot of the appeal for men is going to be. Earnest park is here for his first treatment to slim down his treatment. The injection was approved about it fda in late april. Lose a lot of weight. The chin doesnt change at all. The doctor told me that is more of a genetic things that has anything to do with losing weight. My fathers gift to me. It breaks up fat cells for good. Most patients require two to four sessions. Noninvasive treatments can add up. Many require multiple sessions which can range from hundreds to thousands of dollars each. For these patients, the pricetag is worth it. For the most part, i think people are fairly realistic. They want to look like a rested version of themselves. We asked the doctor about side effects for the treatments. They both said the risks are might be mall but can include bruising and swelling and one more tip that really stood out, they say the after photos looked too good to be true, chances are they probably are. Yeah, thats a good piece of advice. Thank you so much. I asked for the Cindy Crawford and this is how it turned out. One of the newest noninvasives is the injectable nose job. And here to show us how its done live is a Board Certified dermatologist. And our brave patient this morning is jay valerio. Good morning to both of you. First explain how this works. Rhino plas ti and nose job is a big deal. This is to try to, i guess, see how you like it, try it out for size . Exactly. It is totally reversible. Im doing it with juviderm. It is used on label over here. It is used all over the face. Its a filler. So jay, if you want to lean back for a second. How you are feeling before you go under the not knife . Im brave. I have to tell you, im looking at your nose. I dont see you have a big problem with your nose. Thank you. He just has this notch right here, savannah. So what we do is we just in jekt ject right here. It takes the notch out. Now this is reversible. This is totally reversible. You see how you see how its here and then its indented on that side. And then well smooth it and give him a second. You can see the results already. And it definitely hurts. We tell patients all the time that we want them to, you know, try to hang in there with us. It doesnt bleed a ton as you can see. Thats a good thing. If matt is watching at all right now, thats a very good thing. But the bottom line is that its totally tolerable. People can move their noses. So it lasts for at least a year. And its pretty cool. But if you dont like it then we can take another medicine it to and that eats up the juviderm and take it out. So in a way, there is not a risk. How expensive is it . It is 750 a syringe, depending on what part of the country youre in. It takes at least one syringe. Not much down time. Well see how it looks at the end of the show. Jay, hang in there. Youre being very, very brave. Very brave. Well see the results later kathie lee and hoda will show you how a chin injectable works. Well do that live too. Are the needles done . Are they done with the needles . Nope. Were still at it. Were holding each other up. Jason segel is here.

Jason segel known for come by roles in things like forgetting Sarah Marshal and how i met your mother. Youre about to see him like you never did before. He plays the late author David Foster Wallace in the movie the end of the tour. Its based on a real life road trip he took with a writer from promotional tour. If we ate like this all the time, what would be wrong that . It would be wrong like besides your teeth falling out and getting fat. None of the nourishment of real food but it is real pleasurable. Its like seductive commercial entertainment. But what about good seductive entertainment like the first diehard. Jason segel, good morning. Good morning. Whats wrong with you . How do you mean . The last time you were here, we talked about your childrens book. I asked you about your favorite roles. Then i said anything big coming up for you . Yeah. You said nothing about what could be the role of a lifetime. Yeah. Why were you holding out . Well, for today. This is it. Premier it here . Yes. This movie is people are lining up to review this movie. And i could spend the entire interview reading you the great reviews. Let me pick one. I think Huffington Post says it best, its early but lets prep his Oscar Campaign just to be safe. Well, thats very sweet. What i hope more than anything is that people see the movie and pick up David Foster Wallace. His writing really moved me. I think he did the same for a lot of people. I think its important to note that there was a time in your career where you were making a lot of comedies and making romances and those things. You consciously said there is Something Else there out there for me. And i want to try other things. Did you immediately get a good reception and start seeing scripts like this . Well, ill tell you, i think it speaks to the power of a decision. Im not really a hippy dippy kind of guy. I just reached a point in my life 34 years old where i just felt like what i was putting on screen wasnt really reflective of what was thinking b and i said to myself that things that i liked of my work were things that really reflected how i was feeling. And forgetting Sarah Marshal is how i felt at 24. A breakup feels like everything. And at 34 years old, im thinking how im going to spend the next 50 years in a way that felt good to me. And thats what this move write is really about. How we want to spend our time and whats going to make us feel satisfied. Its an extraordinary role. The writing is beautiful. The delivery between you and jesse is amazing. Foster wallace. He committed suicide back in 2008 in his mid 40s. Hes very concerned throughout the course of this movie how hell be portrayed in this article in rolling stone. How do you think he would feel about the way hes portrayed in this movie . Well, i learned a while ago i dont think its ever smart to try to guess somebody elses mind. When i try to guess what somebody else is thinking about, theyre always thinking about me which is probably not the case. But what i do think is that the movie is a real extension of the themes of his writing of infinite jazz and speech he gave this is water. It was a speech he gave to the kenyan commencement class. It talks about how we want to spend our time, what we want to think about, whats going to make us feel good when we go to sleep at night. Can you do a movie like this and get all the attention youre getting and will get for this role and then go back to some of those other roles even if its how you feel at that time in your life . Yeah. I dont feel limited by any genre. But what i want to do is movies that you walk out of the theater and want to have a conversation about. And i also want to do things that make me scared. Last time i was here i was talking about my book nightmares. It occurred to me that im telling 10yearold thats the only way to achieve your dreams is to face your fears. I cant say that to kids and not do it myself. Thats a good way to look at it. You can make up for the fact that you didnt reveal this to me last time by mentioning me in your oscar speech. Somewhere after relative and people like that. Okay. That sounds like a fair plan. Jason, fabulous. Thank you so much. Congratulations. And the end of the tour opens in select markets this weekend.

From nbc news, this is todays take with al roker, and tamn are hall, live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. Oh, yeah. Lets enjoy this a little bit. Welcome to today. Its tuesday morning, august 4th, 2015. Weve got a great crowd. And lunch money lewis will be here next wednesday. And nattily, by the way, making her way down to reno, where the olympics will be held one year from now. And she made this drink which is like fire water and she said she has something to deliver to us, i think tomorrow that, i mean, going to grow hair on your chest and none of us have that. It was ridiculous. I think there was a floater on the top. It was lethal. So, shes warned me i heard that phrase because when i heard floater on the top. South beach i just had a completely kind of and thats not the kind of drink i want. Nobody wants that drink. Speaking of floating on top of new jersey. Wait until you see this video a fwie was rescued and had to tread water for four hours, 44 miles off the coast. He apparently wasnt wearing a life jacket when he was on his boat. Heres what damian and his wife, robin said about his fourhour ordeal in the water. The wind was so bad, it was blowing me back. I coughed water out of my lungs so many times and all i had to do was take one breath of water and it was over. I just couldnt picture the next day somebody coming to tell them that im not going to be home anymore because i knew it would ruin their lives and i love them too much for that. I almost lost my whole world. I love him more than anything. You saw in that video, the Coast Guard Air lifted him to the hospital and he made a full recovery. He falls off the boat, his friend is still in the boat, doesnt know how tooperate it, cant go get him. A boat spots him, they finally get around the pick him up and through really difficult thunderstorms, and tough conditions, the coast guard plucks him out of there. He was talking about lightning and wavess all around him. That was the hardest part of my swim training and to tread are for that amount of time. And he said without thinking about his family, he would not have survived. That was the light at the end of the tunnel. Amazing. Survivor instinct of a different kind kicks in with the women of the todays take. But every day, joe, one of our colleagues gives us heaters for our hands to stay warm in this studio. Is it that bad . That was a sigh you gave me. Oh, here it goes. So theres proof now that women in the work place arent just complaining about it being cold. The formula that Office Buildings use, according to a new study, says that temperatures are from an out dated, anthing ant quated model flor nalt inated. Think don draper. So, its based on the Metabolic Rate of a man back then, there were a lot of men working in the office. Absolutely. Depending on the sector, theres obviously still more men insecters. But the temperature around 71 degrees and women feel more comfortable around 77 degrees. Youre a meat meteorologist, thats a big difference. I dont think you need to be a meteorologist to figure that out. But six degrees. Six degrees of kevin bacon. So, they havent reset right, so it question is do you think like, today, every office building, should they reevaluate based on this study and bring it up to 75 . For every degree above 78, youre saving 2 energy. Theres an economic and a climate cost to this. Which, of course, is a good thing to do. And we want our planet to be great for years to come, so lets crank it up. In hot places, its always over air conditioned. You go into a store or restaurant, its freezing cold. Im for air conditioning, but theres a point where its ridiculous. And bejing, who will host the 2022 Winter Olympics, one of the songs china used in the bid, causing a little controversy. Its called the snow and ice dance. Listen to the song the snow and ice dance. Okay. It sounds like a frozen song. Let it go. Let it go. This is snow and ice. Sing it, adeen ina. Now, listen to let it go. This is a different song . Same song. Lets go to same song, different ditty and what a shock. Same song, 94 , 6 different ditty. This is like the blurred lines battle. Come on, this is too easy. You know robin thicke is like, i paid millions and the Chinese People are getting to play and the song seeps into your head and you realize youve stolen it from someone else. Youve written it note for note. Adina needs to get paid for that song. You should see the where they have elsa singing, and its word for word. All right, we have some heavy thunderstorms move through early this morning and were going to see another line develop later this afternoon from new england through the i 95 corridor. And theyre fast movers. Most danger will be winds and damaging hail. Weave arer er ve also got more storms thundering down in florida. Tampa, almost 4. 4 inches of rain, that breaks a new world record. And heavy down pours and then guess what, florida . Sun comes out tomorrow . Yes, the sun will well, this morning storms moved offshore. Things are quieting down. Clouds giving way to breaks of sunshine. Showers north and west later this afternoon. A very warm day. Upper 80s. Humidity comes down, breeze kicks up as the day wearses on. Clears skies tonight. Good sleeping weather, and lots of sunshine, comfortable day at 86 tomorrow. Clouds take over thursday. Lower 80s. Rain and wind for friday. Only in the 70s. That rain winds down saturday morning. Better day, sunday, lower 80s. Whos that . 154 pound man. You just said that is a slight built man . A pally pocket.

Now, ice cubes life is hitting the big screen in straight out of compton a biopick he produced, starring his son, as a young ice cube.

I was watching the movie last night. Im a huge fan of yours and i was listening to death certificate in my office today. But what did nwa tap into at that time. Rodney king, yes, but it was before that even. What was goy ing on . I think we were speaking for a lot of people who felt voiceless and we were being brutally honest and a lot of entertainers at the time were having to put on masks and put on the goody tooshys image to be famous and there were a lot of people who loved and respected that. I remember when you left the group and people thought, what is ice cube thinking . In fact, in the opening of that album, you play all of these things that people were saying about you on the radio. So, how willing were you to put it all out on the table . I mean, we couldnt show everything because youre trying to shove ten years into two hours. That means part two is coming out . I hope so. But it was really all about showing our blemishes and as much as we can to give people a sense of what it was like in the time and we didnt just want to show the music or the group. We wanted to show why did we do that type of music, the environment we came from. So, we tried to display everything and i think we did a pretty good job of weaving everything in and out. Your son looks like he has a little height on you. I asked you earlier how much did you weigh, you didnt answer. Why . A real man dont answer how much he weigh. Im not for a real man.
