minnesota dentist who killed cecil the lion as he tried to explain himself to his patients. >> and there is crying in baseball. a new york mets player crying on the field after he was told he was traded. why it was all an emotional mix-up. today, july 30th. 2015. good morning. welcome to "today" on a thursday morning. i don't usually bring a box of tissues when watching a baseball game. >> there is crying in baseball. a reference to tom hanks' famous line in "a league of their own." there is no crying in baseball. this is a touching story. >> first, let's get to the top story. what appears to be a piece of wreckage from malaysian airlines flight 370 washed ashore on a remote island off the coast of madagascar. that's 4,000 miles from the plane's last known position. nbc's tom costello has been covering this from the very beginning. what can you tell us? >> good morning. the australian command center that's been leading the search for mh370 says it's not surprised debris has washed ashore so far from the search zone. that's consistent with ocean modeling that suggests the final resting place is in the southern indian ocean. there's also a photoing out unconfirmed by nbc news of what appears to be a suitcase that may have washed up on reunion island. we don't know if it's from the missing plane and another photograph from the serial number on the piece of wreckage. they'll look at that piece closely and try to tie that serial number to the missing plane. it's a huge break in potentially solving one of the world's biggest aviation mysteries. boeing investigators have looked at this video and these photos of the debris covered in sea seashells. their conclusion, it is a wing component from a boeing 777, a flaperon. there's only one missing anywhere in the world, malaysian 370. as a press conference, the deputy prime minister of australia called it a major league. >> this is obviously a very significant development. it's the first real evidence that there's a possibility that a part of the aircraft may have been found. >> malaysian 370 contact ho chi minh good night. >> good night. 370. >> it was march 2014 when mh370 with 239 people onboard suddenly disappeared on the red eye to beijing. radar data suggested it made a mysterious u-turn into the southern indian ocean, but why? search teams have been focus odn a remote stretch of island, but the debris turned up closer to madagascar, more than 4,000 miles from the last known location south of vietnam and thousands of miles from the search zone off australia. investigators now have a single piece of wreckage, but they're still missing the rest of the plane. >> the investigators are going to look very carefully at the component, what kind of damage it sustained at impact, how it left the rest of the airplane. >> oceanographers say much of the indian ocean moved in a counterclockwise motion, so it's entirely possible the plane could be off the coast of australia or anywhere in the indian ocean. >> these large-scale ocean currents aren't very fast. and it can take months to even years for debris to go somewhere, say, from western australia, across the ocean basin, to even madagascar. >> this morning, one piece of evidence, but we still don't know where mh370 went down. >> it looks like a break, and what happened today is you could see across the team, there was a new burst of energy. >> french investigators are working with boeing, with the australians, and the malaysians to identify that piece and then begin the process of looking at the ocean flow charts to see if they can backtrack and find the rest of the plane. they'll also be examining the sealife on the wreckage to see if it gives them clues as to where the wreckage might have originated. back to you. see if it provides any clues as to the journey this piece might have taken. back to you. >> tom costello thank you. greg fife is from the nation national transportation safety board. good morning to you. >> good morning. >> so the investigators have concluded that this is a piece from a boeing 777 and as tom mentioned there's only one of those missing anywhere on the planet. that is malaysian air flight 370. is it just a matter of matching numbers now? >> if the numbers do exist. all of these parts have data tags or data plates on them but being this part is in the water so long those numbers may be obliterated so they have to use other characteristics of this piece. such as build diagrams to see the metal and the shape of the structure itself. but they are confirm this i'm sure at some point. >> let me just go to what tom just referred to and let's say they do not find the rest of the plane because that is still a massive undertaking. based on that one piece of debris can they tell anything more can they glean any more information as to what might have brought that plane down? >> to answer your question no. because that one single piece isn't going to answer all the questions. but i think it will answer enough questions especially with the conspiracy theorists that said this airplane landed somewhere and and had been hidden. this will confirm that the airplane did in fact go down in the water. whether it was in a controlled manner or uncontrolled manner, you won't be able to tell that from one piece of wreckage. but the piece of wreckage is the bottom part of the wing and they can look at it and see that it may have separated during a controlled impact such as a ditching rather than a high speed impact where you have high fragmentation. >> to be clear, if they can reverse engineer and they can go back and find the rest of that wreckage those black boxes, the flight data recorder and voice recorder after all this time are they of any use at all? >> well, as we talked about months ago, if they find the cockpit voice recorder, the cockpit voice recorder may not be useful because it overwrites itself every two hours. the data flight recorder records information for 25 hours so you'd capture this event. but all that box is going to tell you is what parameters the pilot may have set into the flight management system and what the airplane was doing to get to where it ended up. but it's not going to give us the answers as to why the pilot flew the airplane to that point or why he programmed the autopilot to program it to some point that was in a controlled crash or it ran out of gas and went into the controlled event. >> all right, thank you very much. now here's savannah. philip wood was the only american on mh370 and sarah joins us now. good morning to you. >> good morning. >> i can only imagine that mix of emotions you must have felt when this news hit yesterday. can you take me through it, what you're feeling this morning? >> well it's a bit of a roller coaster ride, but that's been going on now for almost 18 months. and i think most of the family members would feel the same way i do. until they can verify that it is indeed 370 we just can't deal with the emotional pressure of trying to make any decisions about it. >> because there have been so many false reports, so many theories over the long, long months. if this does turn out to be the wreckage of flight 370 what do you hope happens next? what do you hope gets answered? >> well, on the one hand, i hope it isn't because that means there's still a thread of hope. but if it is i hope it can at least help us to find the airplane because that might help us to understand what ultimately happened. and i think that we need to be able to trace it back to the source of the parties responsible. the malaysian government allowed this to happen. >> people use the word closure. i don't know what that means. but in terms of what you've been going through, and the hope that you have held out for your partner, what does this mean to you if authorities come to you and say, yes, this is the wreckage of flight 370 in terms of your own healing? >> well, a part of a plane is not the same as a body. so i think true closure can only come for sure when you can say good-bye properly. but for most of us life has been stuck in march 8th, so at least some verification that the flight indeed crashed would be a step forward in being able to say good-bye. >> well sarah vaijack, thank you for your time this morning. >> you're welcome. i think it's a very fine line between a sense of closure and the reopening of wounds. >> it's clear those wounds are raw as ever this morning. in other news, a university of cincinnati police officer is facing up to life in prison if he is convicted for the deadly shooting of an unarmed black man. prosecutors handing down a murder indictment in that case ten days after what began as a routine traffic stop. we are also seeing video of the incident for the first time. nbc's rehema ellis is in cincinnati. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, matt. officer ray tensing is being arraigned here in connection with the shooting death of samuel dubose. it is that video from the officer's body camera that has become critical evidence in this case. dubose was a 33-year-old father who was reportedly going to meet up with his son and watch a movie when he was pulled over by officer ray tensing. video from tensing's body camera release by the prosecutor's office shows tensing telling dubose he was stopped for not having a front license plate. tensing asks dubose for his license several times. >> i don't have it on me. >> reporter: tensing asked dubose to step out of the car and reaches for the door handle. >> i didn't even do nothing. >> go ahead and take your seat belt off now. >> reporter: a second video posted on the cincinnati inquirer website purports to be the body camera of a fellow officer. it shows tensing on the ground and tensing said dubose took off. >> he took off on me i thought he'd run over. >> reporter: he repeats that he was dragged. >> he was just dragging me. dragging me. he's dragging me. >> it is our belief that he was not dragged. >> reporter: joseph dieters the hamilton county prosecutor said tensing's accounting nonsense and the shooting totally unwarranted. >> this is the most asinine act i have ever seen a police officer make. >> reporter: tensing's lawyer says his client has never had any discipline issues and he fired because he thought he was going to be run over. >> his defense is going to be self-defense, that he felt like his life was in danger and threatened and he was trying to save his own life. >> reporter: in cincinnati, wednesday night, there was a peaceful demonstration to protest the killing. for the dubose family dealing with the pain of their loss, the body camera is all the evidence they need. >> seeing that video let me know that my son did absolutely nothing. not -- nothing. >> reporter: 25-year-old ray tensing is the first officer in the city of cincinnati to be indicted for murder. accused of killing someone in the line of duty. matt? >> rehema ellis, thank you. let's turn to natalie. you have the latest on this frantic search for the two boys in florida. >> that's right. day six. the chances are diminishing for the two teens missing at sea. nbc's kerry sanders is in jupiter, florida, with the very latest on the search. good morning. >> reporter: well good morning. at this hour a c-130 aircraft from the coast guard is right now flying over the search area and there are several coast guard cutters on the water, all tasked with the same mission -- find the missing boys. it's now day six of the coast guard search for best friends, 14-year-old perry cohen and austin stephanos. lost at sea. >> there's been a lot of rumors that the search has been suspended. i want to refute that. the search has not been suspended. it is still active and open. >> reporter: a search but no mention now of rescue. the boys' boat capsized and even if they had life vests they likely have no drinking water. what might have helped save the boys is a epirb, an emergency positioning radio beacon. i'm going to drop in the water. now, even if i were unconscious, the salt water would activate this. we have arranged with the national oceanic atmospheric administration for a simulated emergency. >> in some cases it can be the only notification to rescuers that you're even in some trouble. >> reporter: at the noaa control center it took moments for the distress signal to show up. >> we can see that the beacon has been picked up by the system. >> reporter: a device that might have made a huge difference had it been in the boys' boat. noaa says the beacons have saved 73 lives so far, just this year. natalie? >> kerry sanders in jupiter, florida, thanks. immediate vaux evacuations are in place for an area of northern california where a fast moving wildfire has burned at least 3,000 acres. northwest of sacramento the fire started on the afternoon. air resources are being diverted from the nearby rag fire to help fight the on going blaze. the fire destroyed at least one structure. the wildfire is spreading fast because the terrain is heavy with brush and timber. a protest in port land oregon getting a lot of attention because they're dangling from the city's tallest bridge. at least 13 climber froms greenpeace are trying to prevent the shell otherwise oil icebreaker ship from leaving port where it was undergoing repairs. they're worried about the impact on the environment and the protesters plan to remain suspended from the bridge for several days. that could be very uncomfortable. well now to the city of a thief and his very unusual get away car. surveillance cameras captured the crime at a grocery store in belarus. a man is taking a seat on the winnie the pooh toy car while talking on his mobile phone. so he rides around for a while and slowly but surely just scoots the toy car outside the exit door. the police track down the culprit. he told the officers he was drunk and doesn't remember where he parked winnie the pooh. >> i believe him. >> winnie is not talking either. >> that's my car. >> oh bother. >> natalie, thank you. this would be what the third day of the heat wave?

that's about 64% of the population of those who are killed over in africa are brought here. matt and savannah, back to you. >> this is an eye opening story for a lot of folks. kevin tibbles, thank you very much. let's speak with lisa bloom. dr. palmer is getting it from every corner. the front page of newspapers, celebrities weighing in. at this stage, is it clear if he has a legal problem or a massive pr problem? >> no one has prosecuted him yet. it would take a motivated prosecutor either in zimbabwe or the u.s. for him to face any charges. his compatriots in zimbabwe have faced charges, but not him. it if the zimbabwe officials go after him they have to get him extradited from the u.s. >> the question if there's anything to charge with him. >> poaching. >> as you alluded to, would the zimbabwe officials care about that and bring him over there when they care about tourism? >> tourism is a big part of their economy. do they want to deter other wealthy tourists from coming over and engaging in hunting? >> so far, in his statement, he said "i understand i had the proper permits. i hired professionals." is that a good defense? >> no. normally no. ignorance of the law is not a excuse here in the u.s. it's generally not acceptable. any american that goes overseas you have to bay the laws of that country and it's generally not sufficient to say i relied on the locals. >> other people are saying what about u.s. laws? is there any violation of u.s. laws? >> that's a tough one. i know authorities are looking into it. if he brought any part of the lion back and the lion was obtained illegally, that could be a crime. if any of the $50,000 he paid in zimbabwe went to pay a government official to do something illegal, that could be a problem for him. there's no evidence of that at this point. >> let's turn this on its ear for a second. i mentioned the threats, the death threats, the fact he's had to go underground. he had to close his practice. you look at the front page of some newspapers. they have basically tried and convicted him. are there laws in this country that protect this guy from that sort of thing? >> boycotts are legal. but it is not legal to criminally threaten or to harass someone. defamation is a cause of action if somebody says something that him that is not true. >> we'll see where this goes. lisa, thank you. we have mr. roker here for the weather. >> that's right. a lot of folks, over 40 million people under some sort of a heat advisory or heat warning. want to help you stay cool. we have creative ways from our friends at "time" magazine. from "time" magazine. loose, lightweight linen clothing. that helps to make you feel cool. cool the pulse points. flash water on your temples or over your water. don't eat, just graze on smaller more frequent meals. that keeps your body core temperature down. eat to sweat. certain spicy foods make you sweat but doesn't raise your body temperature. then you get e vabevaporative color on your skin. raise your body temperature. stay cool under the covers. use a water bottle with ice water or bag your sheets, toss them in the freezer for an hour or two before bed and then put them in the microwave and defrost them. no, just kidding. that's a pretty good idea. i like that! our friends in florida aren't worried about staying cool. they're worried about trying to stay dry. we have tropical moisture that keeps streaming in. some places picked up double digits amounts of moisture. it's going to continue this weekend into monday. some places picking up five inches of rain but could be locally eight inches as a stationary front sets up in northern florida. i'm meteorologist kari hall. low clouds back over san francisco and highs in the city reaching 75 degrees in the castro pacifica 66 degrees, 86 degrees in san jose and it will still be hot and a few spots like the north bay, 90 degrees in santa rosa pleasanton 100 degrees, wall mutt creek 98 degrees. a widespread in temperatures from the coast to the inland valleys and a lot of sunshine in afternoon. have a great day. and that's >> and that's your latest weather. matt?

>> al thank you very much. kevin bacon stars in a new thriller called "cop car." he plays a sheriff whose car is taken on a joyride by two young boys and he wants it back. >> you didn't touch anything did you?

>> no. let's not. >> there's something that the sheriff wants back. >> yeah. he wants it back really bad. they stole their own cop car. >> they're bothering the wrong sheriff. not a lot of dialogue either. >> no. when i was younger i used to read a script and say i would judge it based on how many lines i had. if i had the big scene, but, you know i think sometimes as i've gotten older i looked for some parts where you can kind of play between the lines, you know. and i think what is amazing about the film camera is that it gives you the opportunity to see things that the naked eye doesn't even see. it's an actor who has the opportunity to show some confusion, sadness, anger, and joy whatever without saying this is what i'm feeling. it's a good exercise >>well there's some part of this movie that i want to focus on it's your mustache. >> okay. >> i want to put it on the screen and admire it. i have many many questions about the mustache. first of all, did you grow it? is that your facial hair? >> this is all smoke and mirrors. we can't divulge any secrets. people say how did you get the kids driving the cop car? and the director of the film says i can't tell you that. i'm going to take his advice. >> i had all the questions. is it itchy? did you have to walk around on your off hours? >> yes. it was itchy. >> are you a fan of facial hair? have you ever had a beard? >> what is sad about that i can grow a mustache and i can grow whatever this is so i end up looking like shaggy but i can't grow anything on the side of my face. >> really? >> yeah. when i've had side burns in the past they've been glue ones. and, you know, it's a little frustrating as an actor because, you know you want to be able to sort of change your look, you know in terms of facial hair but i always say to myself listen i'm not going to complain because i have the hair on top. and at my age, i'm a very small club. let's put it that way. >> you are, of course not just an actor but a musician. i saw something cute on your twitter page. the bacon brothers were playing. a gal came dressed up as a human-sized piece of bacon. she comes up. >> we were at macguire air force base. it was a hot day and i see this -- excuse the pun sizzling piece of bacon walking across the tarmac. i said to one of our roadies, just please get her. she has to come up for the encore. it was a lot of fun. she has a lot of guts. >> i almost wore the same outfit today. >> you should have! >> kevin bacon, thank you very much. good to see you "cop car" is in theaters august 7th. it's on demand august 14th. sweet new summer tweet from the newest member of our "today" family. >> neither of us appreciated the comments about the hair -- >> my bad. anyway, about the food. we'll be back. he knows my name is jamir dixon and i'm a locate and mark fieldman for pg&e. most people in the community recognize the blue trucks as pg&e. my truck is something new... it's an 811 truck. when you call 811, i come out to your house and i mark out our gas lines and our electric lines to make sure that you don't hit them when you're digging. 811 is a free service. i'm passionate about it because every time i go on the street i think about my own kids. they're the reason that i want to protect our community and our environment, and if me driving a that truck means that somebody gets to go home safer, then i'll drive it every day of the week. together, we're building a better california. (scal): good day, m'lady! i am sir-can-a-lot, here to save you from another breakfast bore. wake up those eggs with glorious spam! see what spam can! do... at spam.com . back now at 8:39 with the newest member of our "today" food team. >> i'm happy to say that sam kass is joining nbc news after advisor to the president on nutrition and white house staff. we'll talk to sam in a moment -- pretending he's not standing here. but first, how he thinks about sh nourishes us. it brings us happiness, joy, and connection to our loved wuns. the challenge of cooking is great. they say a chef's job is to not mess up great ingredients. i try to live that. fresh ingredients drive the dish. that's when pure goodness on the plate. >> all my senses are active when i'm cooking and i feel great and engaged and happy. i enjoyed my time at the white house for six and a half years. i was their chef and lead the "let's move" initiative. right now this country wastes about 40% of the food we grow. the trends we're seeing with organic and farm fresh represent a transformation in food culture in this country. you can expect me to bring stories about innovation and seeing how we feed ourself. a total revolution when it comes to food in america. from cheese makers and beer brewers to local farmers. food is my life. it's what i think about morning, noon and night. i couldn't be more excited to join the "today" show. thing are so many compelling stories and amazing people doing amazing things in is an amazing platform to tell the stories. >> welcome to the family! >> good morning! >> great to have you here. >> i'm excited to be here. >> you love great food but you care about nutrition and you know when you start to talk about nutrition, a lot of people young blah. how do you change perceptions? by telling us how we can make life better through food. we look at health sustainability technology and innovation and how it's challenging the future of our food and do it in a fun, happy, loving way. i think that's the difference we can do. >> you're going the usual cooking lessons and et. cetera. >> this is sweet week. i have to get the fruits back. i saw the ice cream sandwich. so we're supposed to get about two cups of fruit a day, if you're an average adult. that's what this looks like. this is about two cups. right now we're consuming about 40% of the fruit we need. we need to double what we're taking in every day. >> we're going to help people get more fruit in their diets. when you buy fresh fruit you have to wash it carefully. >> yep. it's probably better to wash most fruit right before you eat it. if you get your berries wet and put them away the moisture will help bring mildew and things fast per. >> some people worry about having too much fruit because the natural sugars it sugar. >> you have to worry about that with fruit juice because you're not getting the fiber. sugar is not an issue with fruit. we need to eat more fruit. you're going to jazz up a fruit salad. >> fruit salad is what everybody likes to eat. we need to give it more. i always lemon juice. >> to make the flavor of the fruit jump out more. >> it balances the sugar and sweetness in the fruit and herbs. you can add basil, mint anything you want. it picks up the flavor. >> i thought it was cute. that's the culinary term for you, sam. >> cute. >> not what i would have gone with. >> you have salt here. would you use it? >> sometimes people like a little salt. when you have sweet, salty, acidity a nice ambulance therebalance there. >> savannah is not an enormous melon fan. likes cantaloupe not honey due. >> that's a little interesting. melons i love to do some orange juice on it. you can put a little thyme or tarragon. i want to show you the fruit smoothy and slushies. >> okay. this is good are if the kids. >> if you didn't want to use juice can you use water or flavored water? >> absolutely. anything to pick it up a little bit, i think, for kids are great. >> okay. >> there's nothing better on a hot day than a fruit slushy. let me show you how we do this. you can take any fresh fruit you want and freeze it. it's best to freeze it on a sheet tray like this. >> oh so it doesn't stick together. >> yeah. you can also just buy frozen fruit. so either way that works. we're going to do a blackberry slushy. you put these in there with fruit juice or some selzer water and blend it up. >> that's what it looks like when it's done. you have cold soups here. you're going to be a great addition to the family. we're going to chow down but get healthier. >> we'll get healthier in the process. >> sam kass thank you. coming up next we have the toyota concert series on "today." brought to you by toyota. back now on a thursday. natalie imbruglia is an actress song writer, and model. perhaps best known for 1997 hit song "torn" it earned her three grammy nominations and mtv video music award. it has nearly 60 million hits on youtube. now she's back with a new album called "male." great to have you here. >> good morning. >> fun to be back in music?

>> you hire many contractors as a decorator. what do you look for? what is the most important thing people should be asking. >> trust my gut, mostly. i want to know how many other projects are they working on? who is in charge of payments to subs. who pays for materials? who is cleaning up things. who has to file permits? do i have to follow anything up with the building department. you want to know what is going on and what the builder's impact is in the area. i like to pop into the local building department and get a sense who is getting permits and doing work in the area and go from there to start talking with people. >> that's a good idea. you know it's coming from the source directly. john, what about payment plan? do you talk to them about how you break it up? >> it's the only way you can protect yourself. a strong payment plan. i recommend using an aia contract. it itemizes the complete scope of work materials and installation cost. if you see flooring show up you can pay them for that. but don't pay them before you see the material show up. and that's why the aia contract is brilliant. it protects you. >> do you not pay them until the job is how you like it? >> you have to hold back at least 10% at the end of the job. never give too much of a deposit. that's a big mistake. >> aia means -- >> american institute of architects contract. >> a very standardized contract. john brings up a good point. i hear from people all the time they give the contractor too much money and then things go south. maybe it's not done the way it was supposed to be or they stop showing up and say i have given them 80% of my money and the work is not done. >> what is the recourse? >> this is the thing -- so you have to remember it's a business proposition. you want to make sure you try to take emotion out of it. this is your home so you're emotional about it. you have to go into this saying i'm hiring you to do this job. you want to stay on it. it can be overwhelming because we're talking about things people don't know about, sometimes. going with your gut, you have to make sure you can work with these people and the lines of communication are there. you want to be able to hold the cards and, you know, hopefully it goes well. because i tell people there's a handful of good contractors in every community. you need to seek out and wait for them. they're busy doing good work. >> great advice from you. thank you. coming up next, we have the travel hacks that could change your life. what you need to know before your next getaway. right after this. before and when you bundle your home and auto insurance through progressive, you'll save a bundle!
