We are talking about 115 Million People affected by this storm when all will be said and done and its taking aim on the east coast. Before it gets there, look at this. Look at these watches, warnings and advisories all of the way from the northwest to new england. Were expecting more of that later today. The snow area expands, oklahoma, kansas, on into illinois, by early tomorrow morning it moves into new york and look at this setup right here. We have the cold air from the north and warmer by wednesday afternoon and were looking for an icy mix. Heres what were expecting and this, my friend, could be really crippling for our friends in west virginia. An inch or more of ice. That is dangerous and then snowfall amounts by wednesday afternoon here in the northeast and new england we expect to see anywhere from three to six inches of snow, but a very wide swath of about 9 to 12 inches of snow and look at this, just to the west of boston into eastern pennsylvania, a foot to a foot and a half and this isnt even the worse.

I wish it could stop snowing long enough so i could get to the airport and get to somewhere warm and sunny. Reporter snow blowers were working overtime monday.

Hoffman was open about his past struggles. In 2006 he told 60 minutes about going to rehab after college. I was 22 and i was panicked for my life. I really was. He remained soesh until last year when he reportedly relapsed, but while his is a highprofile death, heroin addiction is a dark secret for many in vermont the governor devoted his state to a fullblown heroin crisis. It more than doubled in the past five years and four out of five people who try heroin for the first time are Prescription Drug users. Its a chooper form of the high. Youre talkinging about getting a pill on the street for 60 to 80 of a pharmaceutical drug versus a 10 bag of heroin. Known for being an every man actor, Philip Seymour hoffman may have had what is an alarmingly common addiction. Kristen dahlgren, nbc news, new york.

Tomorrow we have more changes on the way and weve got major rainfall headed our way thursday into friday and saturday. And thats your latest weather. Al, thank you. Lets head back over to sochi and matt. Reporter all right, savannah, thanks very much. The Olympic Games start in only two games now and this morning russian president Vladimir Putin arrived. If you think hes here on vacation, think again, he is here to oversee the final preparations. Keir simmons, is here. Vladimir putin will meet with olympic officials and tomorrow hell welcome the russian team and team usa who have been make their own assessment of sochi. Take off for olympic athletes who arrived in soech, test the slopes. The vibe is crazy and its a beautiful place. The womens hockey team arrived, keen to get their skates on. Were so happy to get on the ice and compete and show the world what we have. Just four hours later they were in the olympic arena. And so far the snow has been getting a seal of approval. The runup to these games has been riddled with bad pr. One major concern has been will there be enough snow . I can tell you thats one thing the russians dont have to worry about. But some athletes have been questioning the condition of the courses. The course was just built so theyre working out the kinks and everything. It may be more than just kinks. Norwegian snow boarder suffered a broken collarbone. While on the slopes, the International Olympic committee has made some accommodation and is not fully ready. For seven years sochi has been preparing for this even educating their children about the olympics. They say they are ready. It is very great, and we are very happy that the Olympic Games will be in sochi. Which country will win more gold medals . Usa or russia . Russia. A little nervous to be interviewed, but people here are really excited and it was great to be up on the slopes today. You look good on the powder and conditions look very good. You might think with this weather that it might be slushy or melt, but it was none of that. It was terrific. What do you think the answer would be if you asked Vladimir Putin which country would win more medals. Keir, good to see you. Its a pleasure. Back now to savannah. We take a turn to a very personal battle playing out in public. Woody allens adopted daughter dylan farrow, is renewing allegations that he molested her. Well talk to his attorney in just a moment, but first heres National Correspondent kate snow. The raw emotion in dylan farrows open letter are stirring up strong feelings for those who support the legendary director and those who who is up, calling it courageous, powerful and generous. The allegations date back 20 years, but this weekend dylan farrow publicly described thea, buice she says she repeatedlien cu endured as a child. Woody allen took me by the hand and led me to the second floor the house. He sexually assaulted me. Will woody allen has denied allegations and has never been charged with a crime. On the view, Barbara Walters defended her longtime friend who is up for a best screen actor. Shes doing it now because hes up for an award and so the question is does your personal life interfere with your award . A oncebeloved artist now being judged in the court of Public Opinion even as his films continue to receive accolades. For today, kate snow, nbc news, new york. Speaking out for the First Time Since the publication of dylan farrows letter is elkin abrahamowits. Good morning to you. I know you talked to your client and its durious what his reaction is to the allegations and the public way theyre being aired his reaction is one of overwhelming sadness because of what happened to dylan. She was a pawn in a huge fight between him and mia farrow years ago and the idea that she was molested was implanted in her by her mother and that memory is never going to go away. So the fact that she says this now that it happened 20 years ago is totally understandable. A lot of people read this article and probably thought to themselves shes an adult now. Why would she lie . Why would she mack up allegations . In my mind, shes not lying. I think she truly believes that this happened. When you implant a story in a fragile 7yearolds mind it stays there forever. It never goes away. Youre accusing mia farrow of coaching the little girl at the time. The custody judge who presided over the custody case said there wasnt credible evidence of coaching. The custody judge is not the most important factor here. The charges were brought to the connecticut state police. The state police got yale new haven, the sex abuse clinic of yale new haven, a nationally recognized group to determine the charges and they determined after a sixmonth inquiry not only that it didnt happen, but that dylan was coached by her mother and thats important because everybody now talks about the presumption of innocence. He is innocent. They determined that the molestation never took place. Part of the complexity of this case is on the one hand you do have the yale study. You have a prosecutor looking into the case declining to bring charges although he said he personally believed he had evidence to arrest mr. Allen, but you have the separate custody case where a judge looked at these very same facts and said mr. Allens was grossly inappropriate and denied visitation. I would say that the judge was wrong and the judge favored mia farrow for a variety of reasons. I think a lot of the confusion about the case relates to how the relationship with suni evolved. Suni was not allens daughter and it was mia farrow and Andre Previns daughter. Too many people believed that suni was his daughter and he was having a relationship with his adopted daughter. That was not true. It never was trou and a lot of the confusion that has risen around the case and particularly in the custody case arises from that fact. If woody allen looks at an article like this and looks at two decades later and all of this coming up again, what Legal Recourse does he have . Is there somebody he can sue for defamation, for example . Woody allen is not interested in suing anybody for defamation. He was determined not to have molested his daughter 20 years ago. The case is over. There is no case. The fact that its being brought up now is suspect. The timing is suspect. Theirings happened. They havent had any relationship in the last 20 years and all of a sudden were seeing the allegations surface again and one has to wonder why. Real quickly, do you have an opinion as to why theyre coming up 20 years later . I think it is a continuation of mia farrows desire to hurt woody allen and woody allen is now riding fairly high. He got the Golden Globes award for Lifetime Achievement for which he totally deserved and i believe it revived the anger she had for him. Thanks for bringing your perspective. We appreciate it. Thank you. Its a big turn for facebook. Tamron is in the orange room for carson. Over to you. These days, many of us are reminded of our friends birthdays through facebook and today its the network celebrating the big ten. Well hear from Mark Zuckerberg exclusively coming up, but first, how his creation changed the world. Ten years ago, like, status update and friend requests were ideas bouncing around a harvard dorm room. In 200419yearold Mark Zuckerberg and his roommate started the facebook, an online version of a college directory. You sign on and make a profile of yourself. Everybody was using it. The facebook opened up to everyone in 2006 and today there are well over a billion users. Along the way, facebook dropped the the and set the bar for social media. Mark zishgbook, after a an ipo and a president ial town hall. My name is barack obama and i got mark to wear a jacket and tie. Theres no question facebook and zuckerberg have secured a place in the 21st century guy, more than 200 billion connections sharing 400 billion photos, 7. 8 trillion messages sent and liking more than 6 billion times a day in more than 70 languages, but its not all thumbs up for the social network. In october, cfo David Everson admitted that younger users are spending less time on the site. So we know the thumbs up on facebook, what they were doing ten years ago. What were we doing . This was matt who didnt have a beard and a little more hair. Savannah, beautiful as usual. Mr. Roker, you look scomboofl this is mine from ten years ago. I was in vegas, thats what ill tell you.

A terrible storm is moving across the country. The next big one is coming right on its heels. Matt .

Youre looking at the scene in enid, oklahoma, this morning. Where as you can see, the snow is coming down like it is in many parts of the United States. Als been talking about those two storms heading to the northeast over the next couple of days. But here in sochi, russia, its about 45 degrees, not so bad. Gotten colder over the first hour weve been here, but not too bad. Anyway, heres one for you. Where do you not want to be . Savannah, al, tamron, natalie, back in new york, wheres the place you dont want to be 10 30 friday night . In bed. On an airplane . Hanging around the olympic no.

Coming up, a couple real bright members of the u. S. Figure skating team. Weve got Ashley Wagner who flew in from munich and Jeremy Abbott. Were going to be talking to both of them. And what does it take to raise an olympic athlete. Tomorrow morning on today, lindsey vonn will join us with the first of her olympic reports. Matt, thank you so much. Meantime, a look at whats making headlines this morning. The faa investigating a deadly plane crash in tennessee, went down in a parking lot last night. All four people onboard were killed. Chris christie, the governor of new jersey, says his office is cooperating with a subpoena from federal authorities investigating the socalled bridgegate scandal. The new jersey governor spoke out on a local radio show last night. And as matt mentioned and weve been telling you, second of back to back storms moving across the country. Schools in the midwest closed, over 600 flights have been canceled so far today. By this time tomorrow, we could be walking through about 1 2 foot of snow here in new york and the suburbs. Make it stop. Piling it on. Well get your forecast in a moment. But were going to begin this half hour with our exclusive interview with Mark Zuckerberg. Today marks ten years for the social network that changed the way we connect. And i found zuckerberg feeling reflective and grateful on the mild anniversary of the website he founded in his dorm room one decade ago. I could start by saying happy birthday. Does it feel like ten years . I dont know. You know, its been a Pretty Amazing journey. And its so rare to have the opportunity to touch a billion peoples lives. So the 29yearold social media mogul Mark Zuckerberg, stratosphere financial success, alist associates, cover story fame, a movie portrayal. People want to go on the internet and check out their friends. Reporter and an unmistakable mark on our culture. Thank you so much, facebook, for hosting this. We now use friend as a verb. I dont know if i should thank you for that or yell at you. I think its good. Do you think about that Cultural Impact . Its pretty mindblowing to think about. I remember vividly having pizza with my friends a day or two after i opened up the first version of facebook. At the time, i thought, someone needs to build a service like this for the world. I think a lot of what it comes down to is we just cared more. Reporter but facebook faced a critical moment almost two years ago. The momentary darling of wall street as the company went public, facebook then stumbled out of the gate. The stock tanked and the leadership of the companys young ceo within the cross hairs. Everyones looking at you and saying what happened to facebook . Weve gone through a number of periods where people didnt believe we could succeed at what we were trying to do. Ive spent a lot of late nights pacing around my living room with teammates just trying to plot out what our next move can be in order to keep pushing forward on this mission. But theres always a next move. The companys newest challenge, a steady drumbeat of stories that teens are leaving in droves for other fuzzier apps. Is that true . Facebook and instagram are both really popular with teens, in the u. S. And globally. I think what youre starting to see, there are all of these different ways people want to share and communicate. Increasingly, people arent going to get them all from one app. If teens arent on facebook as much as they used to be, does that matter . Do you care if facebook is cool anymore . We Pay Attention to every demographic in every country, right . Well focus on building things teens will like and also things other folks will like. When you read the headlines that say facebooks for your grandma or your mom, does it bug you . There are a lot of Different Things people have written over time. And one of the good pieces of news, we actually reported our results every quarter. And you can see that engagement is growing and were helping more and more people connect. Facebook was in International Headlines along with other major American Tech Companies after Edward Snowden revealed details of the nsas online surveillance. Do you think its a good thing these disclosures were made . I think that the government made a lot of mistakes in terms of not being clear about what they were using information for. I think if you ask americans, they want the government to protect us, right. Its not that they dont want any of the stuff, but i think they want the government to be honest and clear about whats going on. I think thats the line that was missed here. Issues like global surveillance were far from zuckerbergs mind when he was first interviewed on cnbc ten years ago. Heres you in 2004. Hoping for, you know, maybe 4 400, 500 people, who knows where were going next. If you could tell that 19yearold person anything, what would you tell him . Maybe marry priscilla sooner. One of the biggest personal changes in the last decade, in 2012, zuckerberg married his college sweetheart. Are kids in your future . Something you talk about . Savannah, have you been talking to my mom . Yes, i have. She asked me to ask these questions. I guess no answer, sorry, i tried. Listen, i really tried. Zuckerberg is aiming high, launching internet. Org with the not so modest goal of connecting everyone across the globe to the internet. And the young multibillionaire is well on his way on a pledge to give half of his estimated 30 billion fortune to charity. Is there anything you like to splurge on . I dont know. I mean, i wear the same outfit or at least a different copy of it almost every day. I got a new grill recently, does that count . Sure. My wife and i love cooking. If you could have done all of this, accomplish all of it without the whole world knowing your name, would you take that deal . Probably. Is it hard to be in the spotlight . Yeah. But i think some of these things actually help. Im not sure its actually possible to build something that has this kind of an impact on so many people without them knowing who you are and just getting to know what you care about. Im just so grateful to have the opportunity that ive had to serve so many people. And i really think that the best is yet to come. So facebook will be here in another ten years . I hope so. I just have to say, when al watched that piece, take away was, what kind of grill did he get . A big green egg . What did he get . Its amazing to look back and think about how much our culture has been changed and transformed by this social network. If you want to see more of our interview, we put some of it online. You can check that out, as well. What was that campus like, though . That looks amazing. And not to focus on the food, but they have this food court you would die for. You give me a hard time about asking about the grill. I know. But thats what i was thinking. Its like a College Campus with incredibly smart and dedicated people and great food. Lets get a check of the weather. This next storm were talking about. The current one were worrying about is nika, the one we named it on the weather channel. This is the storm track weve been looking at for the last week. So brings storms up and off the coast and then you get that snow and ice. And thats what crippled atlanta and parts of the southeast. This week, the storm track is further inland, so snow and ice moves up to the north, rain through the south. Heres what were looking at as far as this next storm, it would be oryan if it forms. Basically keeps them offshore, but not a big problem. But the american storm track which has been handling these storms pretty well this winter has two systems merging into one. With that, its a much stronger storm closer to the coast. That brings in heavy snow and strong winds. We are going to be watching this sunday into monday. Thats what 7 39 on a Tuesday Morning. Good morning. Im meteorologist christina loren. Hopefully youre off to a good start this morning. I want to remind you its going to be cold all week long and weve got major changes coming to your forecast. Cool cloudy and breezy for today. By late tomorrow were starting to track our first rain showers, especially in the north bay, that starts between 4 00 and 9 00 p. M. Then another round of rain as we head into the weekend, you do want to make sure youre ready for that. It could be active. I love it. Youre still talking about Mark Zuckerberg.

We should mention you came in from munich, so the jet lag not so bad. Not too bad. Jeremy, you came in a couple days ago, what have you had a chance to see . Feeling great. Ive been in the village and the venues and the olympic park and everything has been fantastic. Ashley, you come here, not without a little bit of controversy. You finished fourth at the nationals, youre on the team as opposed to who finished third. She and i have been friends for quite some time now, and she texted me and weve been in touch after the after nationals. And she said, you know what, you deserve to be on the team. Good luck. So to have that support has been everything for me. Three cheers from her. Thats a nice gesture. Jeremy, when youre here, youre obviously focused on the competition. But its also these are the olympics. And theres an awful lot going on. What do you want to get lost in . What else do you want to enjoy . After i finish, i want to see everything. So i want to see that, i want to see a bunch of the mountain sports, hockey. Hockey. Hockey for sure. In the building right over here. Right over here. We want to know more about the team event. What can you share with us about who might be skating in what events . We cant say anything. Its top, top secret. But we are all very excited. This is such a great opportunity. Another medal for the u. S. Team, hopefully, and i think that whoever we send out there, were. Oing to send our best team. Youre being coy, im going to let you get away with that. A lot of times, athletes bring something lucky like photos. You shipped your mattress here . An air mattress. I thought, thats tough in the overhead compartment. I managed to roll it up somehow. Sleep well and compete well and were thrilled to have you both here. And thanks for the effort for getting here right off the plane.

Im Savannah Guthrie alongside al roker got a lot of seahawks fans still hanging out. Theyre still celebrating that victory. The flight was delayed because of the weather. You know, the Seattle Seahawks plane was delayed yesterday because of itsing icing concerns. They didnt get home until 9 00 or 10 00 last night. Theyre still planning the big victory party.

You know what im going to do, as soon as im done with the show, im going to walk into that building, for a complete dress rehearsal. Of friday nights opening ceremony. Be the second time that i see the show and ill fill you in on later on. By the way, that kind of odd architectural feature not just for show. What lies under the strip of the roof is key to the opening ceremony. Ill tell you more about that as well. And then youll have to let us in on putins world. Have you been into putins world and what can you tell us about it . We have all been living in putins world and i got a lot of tweets over there about the beige roof over there. I listened and i went to find out. The official name of it is sochi park. Its a hotel and an Amusement Park development that was supposed to be done in time for the olympics. But around here, they call it putin world. When its finished it will provide a fantasy tour of a thousand years of russian history. They tried to rush it and get it done for the olympics, it didnt happen. They say this is the first theme park in all of russia. It is being designed and built by a place that built major theme parks in dubai. The hotel lights up at night. They say its fully occupied. Although who is staying there is a mystery. Rumors have it it could be the dutch and sri lankan royal families. The price tag is 370 million. More about 13 billion rubles. The story going around here when the huge steel bolts designed to attach the roller coasters beneath arrived here in russia, they were misplaced at customs. So russian officials tracked down the guys who misplaced them and convinced them to return them. But one high ranking businessman said when they open the rides, he doesnt think hell be first person on them to test them. And by the way, sochi park has a Facebook Page with 481 likes, and guess what, guys, they sent me tickets for the opening. Unfortunately not enough for everyone so im volunteering not to go. These are for you. Oh, matt, what a giver. What a giver. Lets get a check of the days top stories. Oh, you still there, matt . Thats okay. No, thats all right. Were just talking about how great and generous you are. Thats me. Giving soul, yeah. Enjoy that park. Well see you in a couple of minutes. Lets go to natalie. Here we go again, yet another big winter storm is sweeping through the midwest this morning and it wont stop until it reaches the east coast. Nbcs Janet Shamlian has the latest. Good morning. Reporter hi, natalie. The snow is coming down in kansas city and this is just the start. The storm is expected to intensify throughout the day. Much of the city is already shut down. The department of transportation took unusual steps of asking employers to let their workers stay home today as the Kansas City Star said it appears no one wants to pull an atlanta. Meaning being caught unprepared. Colleges are closed. Virtually all schools in the area are closed. Temperatures are plummeting throughout the day and as this storm moves to the east, its going to get bitterly cold here in this area. Back to you. All right, thank you. The pilot of a small plane is being praised for steering his plane away from a ymca and a retirement home just before it crashed monday near nashville, tennessee. The pilot and all three passengers were killed. The plane missed the first approach to the airport and it was circling back for another try. The ntsb is now investigating. The convicted fourtime killer who escaped from a michigan prison sunday is become in custody. Michael david elliot was captured monday night in neighboring indiana. Prison Officials Say he acted alone, using his bare hands to peel holes in two prison fences. He then kidnapped a woman and stole her jeep. The woman escaped unharmed by locking herself in a gas station restroom. This morning, an attorney for woody allen appeared exclusively here on today to defend his client against Child Molesting claims. His adopted daughter renewed what she said two decades and she scolded hollywood for rewarding him with an academy nomination. Mia farrow had a volatile relationship with allen in the early 1990s. I think its a continuation of mia farrows desire to hurt woody allen and allen is riding fairly high. He got the Golden Globes award for Lifetime Achievement which he tells me he deserves. Despite an official investigation he has never been charged with the crimes. A lesson in determination from the texas teenager who survived a 3,000 foot plunge while skydiving last month. Mckenzie weber has started rehabilitation in dallas and with the little help she was up and walking on monday. As her dad told us earlier, his daughter is truly a miracle child and we wish her the best in her recovery. Its 8 07. Time for another check of the weather and al.

[ female announcer ] nourish every dream with the fresh roasted peanut taste of jif, proud sponsor of team usa and dreamers everywhere. All right. Back at 8 15. Time for what is trending today. Vanity fair and 60 minutes had an interesting study about lying. And which public figure are you most willing to forgive . Bill clinton with 43 of the people saying theyd be willing to forgive him. In second place, Lance Armstrong. Richard nixon was third. Bernie madoff, people not in a forgiving mood. He was convicted 3 were ready to forgive him and 11 said they wouldnt forgive any of them. Fascinating. Mr. Lauer . The Lance Armstrong number i thought is surprising. Im surprised that its even at 22 . Anyway, while americans tend to have a forgiving nature in russia, you know, they have a reputation, its just a reputation, it could be stereotypical for being hard drinkers. Well, is it true . A recent study conducted by euro monitor says when it comes right down to the people around if the world who consume the most alcohol per week the russians are not in first place. As a matter of fact, theyre second. Do you know whos first . The South Koreans. Look at that. Consuming nearly 14 shots of alcohol per week. Oh, my. 14 shots. But not even i know. In one week. But the russians arent even close. Even though theyre in second place. They consume a little over six shots a week. The americans were down in tenth place. I think we have Something Like four shots a week. Now, that is only if you factor out kathie lee and hoda. If you put them back in, we give the South Koreans a run for their money. I think wine is not being counted or wed be way up there. I think wine would have to count. I dont know. Im thinking a shot of wine . Not really. But when you do i think they mean a for. Oh, perhaps. Perhaps. All right. Moving on, when you go out to the restaurant do you like to ask the waiter for their recommendation . I do. I do all the time, but turns out a new blog post one writer says, stop asking what your waiter likes because its pointless. Julia bainbridge says everyone has different tastes. While your server may love the Roast Chicken theres no guarantee you will. Also, it turns out some restaurants ask the staffers to push certain dishes that arent selling so well. So the veal chop might not be the tastest on the menu and the Facebook Page says most do ask for help. You may ask hows the chicken . Its good. I like the honest answer, the honest waiters. All right. Well, are you ready for some summer lovin . Thats what im talking about. Brace yourself, big news involving Olivia Newtonjohn. Guess who happens to be on the phone, the legend herself. Good morning to you. Well try not to sing. We cant. But its we love you. Tell us whats going on, whats the big announce . Im excited. Im doing my first las vegas at the flamingo hotel. Oh, so exciting. Starting in april. Im really excited and im going to be in donnie and maries show room. A lovely old style show room. And yeah, im excited. How many shows will you do . Will you be there every night, people can come to vegas to see you . No, not every point, but various weeks throughout the year. Yeah, it will be a lot of fun. Im really excited because the flamingo has generously agreed to give a portion of every ticket sold to my cancer wellness very special. Im a huge olivia fan. Im a big fan of yours, but what can we expect to see from this summer night show . Well, ill be taking on a musical journey through my life, my career. Ill do my xanadu and some of my new healing music. And some of my favorite oldies. Its a journey through my life. Well, we are so excited, olivia. We are hopelessly devoted to you. Good luck. Y are the one that we want. [ laughter ] wed love to see you. Thank you. Thank you so much. Bye, guys. Thats whats trending today. Todays olympic star is brought to you by kelloggs. From great starts come great things. It is time for todays olympics, start the action, it starts on thursday. One athlete you do not want to miss is 18yearold mikaela shiffrin. A standout on the u. S. Ski team. Her teammates like bode miller call her a phenom and she could make a big name for herself at these games. Shiffrin into the lead. Shiffrin is the Gold Standard right now. Shiffrin has got it shiffrin has been described as a talent that comes along once in a lifetime. Shes done it. At the tender age of 17 she became the youngest american slalom World Champion in history. It was such a special time. Everything was in slow motion. Capturing the world cup slalom title by 18. Youngest skier to win the slalom globe in 40 years. A pinnacle moment in a career thats only just begun. Mikaela shiffrin shiffrins rise on the world cup circuit has been described as meetioric, but its the result of a lifetime of planning. She recently graduated from Burke Mountain academy. It really set well. You ski in the morning and then do classes in the afternoon. In early years she trained more and guidance from her mom and dad, her first coaches that seem to be paying off. My mom and dad both raced. My dad raced for dartmouth. Theyre both good athletes and good skiers. Despite coming from a family of skiers she didnt latch on to the sport immediately. I was skiing by the time i was 2 1 2 years old, but i didnt like 2 chair lift rides. Whenever i get cold id fall asleep on every single chair lift ride and i sometimes still fall asleep. When i first started training at 6 years old, that was when i started to find a passion for the sport. Discipline and notice did come naturally to her. Im nervous at the start. Its another challenge to get rid of the nerves. Channel my energy. A selftaught musician, she said skiing is not unlike music. The rhythm she hears in her head. Today, the teen splits her time between the u. S. And europe, basing herself in the u. S. Ski team in austria. By her said is mom eileen. An unusual arrangement, not always popular with everyone on the team. She wouldnt have any it any other way. My mom is one of my best friends, we get along great. Shes the one person who really knows me. And with success already on her side lindsey vonn into the lead. Comparisons to another phenom it is flattering. Lindsey has been one of my idols. But theres only room for one on the circuit. Dont let her humility fool you. Mikaela shiffrin is headed to sochi to win. I have to visualize myself winning. That may sound cocky, but i think its important to see yourself where you want to be. Just to show you a big deal she is, here she is on one of the olympic covers. So congratulations to her. When we come back from skiers to speed on the ice, well catch up with some u. S. Speedskaters. But right now back to new york. Thank you. Well remember her name. Of course the torch is about to be passed, no, not in sochi, but here in new york. Tamron has more on that. Its a big week, the the tonight show torch being passed and jimmy fallon made an appearance with jay leno. Kind of talking about his bits, the thank you note. Look at what happened last night. Thank you, jay, for giving me such great advice for the tonight show like you dont need a monologue and have you ever thought about getting banged . Yeah. Thank you. Really nice of you. Yeah, no problem. And finally, thank you, jay leno for carrying on the proud tradition of the tonight show host with such humor and class and being nothing but gracious and generous to me. Ill do my best to make you proud every single night. Thank you. I think youll do a great job. Isnt that sweet . A little sentimental spirit along with the humor. So were putting together a list by the way, i learned that word today. Were asking you to go to the orange room and tell us why you love jimmy fallon using orange room. He can persuade any guest that will go viral. Remember when Michelle Obama the first lady was only doing the mom dance over the generations . That went viral. Of course, jimmy in the cardigan. Let us know what you think. Were putting that list together and jay lenos last night on the tonight show is thursday. All right, thank you so much. Coming up, golden globe winner and snl alum andy samberg is here. They were put to the test, now what will matt and al face in sochi . Let the games begin starting february 6th on today. A very good morning to you, 8 26. Im laura garciacannon. Police in palo alto are having a Community Meeting today to talk about the spiking crime on the peninsula. It will focus on an armed Home Invasion that happened on january 2rd. Three men forced their way into a home and made the homeowners lay on the ground while they ransacked the home. The meeting will be held at 7 00 tonight in the city council chambers. We see a big volume of traffic that we always see on this day of the week and there it is 880 at the coliseum. A result of big traffic through there, but look at 580, it is jammed there. No relief through the maize. In San Francisco, signaling problems that are causing some alternates. Stand by for those. Here is the south bay. Thank you so much, were back with another local news update for you in half an hour.

The winner will be joining us tomorrow right here on today. Lets get a check of the weather. Lets see what weve got going. We have been talking about these storms. Storm track brings those storms up last week along the coast. That meant for snow and ice through the southeast into the northeast. And this week, that storm track is up to the north, and that pushes the snow and ice northward, rain along the southeastern coast. Two tracks, european track stays more offshore, so less snow sunday into monday. But the american track which has been handling these storms pretty well shows that system getting itself together merging off the coast, intensifying early monday morning into monday night. Stronger, closer to the coast means heavy wind and snow. Well have to wait and see. But, boy, this could really be an interesting storm coming up. Thats whats going on around the country, heres whats. 8 32, good Tuesday Morning to you, im christina loren. Our last dry day, showers tomorrow. Cool out there, cloudy, and a little on the breezy side. Temperatures ramping up and thats it for today. Through the next couple days, changes i want to tell you about. Showing you the difference between san jose and San Francisco. A few degrees of warmth between the two, but showers start first in San Francisco, late tomorrow, continuing into thursday, and for the first part of friday as sll. Nd matt. All right, al. Thank you very much. 2,900 athletes will compete in 98 medal events in sochi. Two of those athletes are members of the u. S. Speed skating team. Eddie alvarez and Jessica Smith. Hi, folks, good to see you. Good to see you. Roommates, by the way. You guys live together in Salt Lake City . Yeah. How long has that been going on . Two years now. So you know each others deepest, darkest secrets. Eddie, ill start with you. Kidding. Most people look at miami and dont think of speed skating. How did it start for you . As a kid, my parents used to take me to south beach to cruise around the streets. In line skating. Exactly. These two ladies stopped me and said i should try inline speed skating. So i made a transition to the ice. There was a time you gave up skating completely to play baseball. Right . Yeah. What got you back to skating . The olympic dream. In high school, i dropped it completely my sophomore year. And after graduation, i dropped my scholarship for baseball to try to make the 2010 games. I fell a little short, so i game back to baseball, came back here. And it worked out pretty well. Pretty well. Jessica, speaking of just missing, just missed in vancouver making the team. Whats the difference . What gets you here to sochi . A lot more experience and technical help and a lot more training and just getting my bearings under me, i think. Weve had a chance to chat here a little bit before we came out of the break, i know youve got the personality to handle this. Youre not the tallest member of team usa. Does size matter at all in your events . Hey, good things come in small packages, right . Does it matter at all . No, i think it just depends on how you put what pressure into the ice. I dont think it affects me very much. I think its good to be short. Youre down at the ice, get good lean and get into small places. She gets all the draft. Get all the draft and small opportunities. Your nickname is oh, gosh. Dont you have . I have a couple. Somebody told me it was rugrat. Yeah. Trying to avoid that one. What are the other ones you know about . No, that ones fine.

Well, for seven seasons, andy samberg cracked us up on saturday night live with his unforgettable impressions, characters and those hilarious digital shorts. And now he can call himself a golden globe winner, picking up the golden globe for his work on brooklyn 99. Andy is with us now. Good morning. Good morning. Youve asked for me to refer to you only as golden globe winner andy samberg. Yeah. I say that to everyone i know. My parents have to say that when i come home for thanksgiving. Would you like more stuffing . Yeah, dinners ready, golden globe winner andy samberg. Thank you for saying it properly. I love the moment when you won. First of all, your Pal Seth Meyers seemed over the moon. But you seemed genuinely surprised. I would say its about as shocked as ive ever been about anything ever. Why, though . Our show is so new. The word acting is involved in the award. All of the above. We were just surprised and happy to be nominated for anything. And, you know, we were up against some pretty power house shows and incredibly actors in my category. I was not expecting it. For a lot of people, this is a great introduction to the show. Brooklyn 99. Tell us about your character. Hes kind of a knowitall hot shot detective. Really good at the job, but hes maybe a little immature, thus my casting. Such a stretch. The only thing we were worried about when we started the show was would people actually believe i could be a detective. So far, i think were just scraping by in that department. More than scraping by. Youve got the golden globe to prove it. Theres a second reference i promised you. You were shown after the super bowl yep. And by the way, one of the most watched super bowls ever. No pressure to hold those viewers. Can you imagine how many people it would have been if itd been a good game . You went, right . I was there through like the third quarter, yeah. And then it was like, oh, this is over. And youre a 49ers fan. I am. What was it like to see the seahawks devastate the broncos . It was not fun for me. Best to the seahawks and everyone in seattle. Theyre a great team. You are a good actor. I really believed you. Yeah. I love peyton manning, too. He hosted when i was at snl. I was hoping he could get another super bowl. But the seahawks, theyre a nasty team. They deserved it. They were tough. Yeah. Digital shorts are kind of how you made your name. Theyre amazing. I think my favorite is blank in a box. Blank in a box. Are you going to continue to do this . What with your acting career and everything . I certainly hope so. Me and my two buddies, were the lonely island, weve made three albums so far. I dont think theres any plan to stop. Itll just be finding the time. You did yolo last year, you had adam levine. Kendrick lamar. Any musical acts youre dying to work with . Weve been dying to get bill clinton on sax. Weve been saying that for a while now. Have you put the request in . How do you do that, though . You have a platform now. You have the ether. Whats up, ether, im going to inject that idea to you and see what comes back. Maybe youll get a call. He could be watching, you dont know. That would be the best cold call ever. And finally, jimmy fallon, as i understand it, is the person that introduced you way back when to lorne michaels. Yeah. Any advice for him as he sets out for the tonight show . Jimmy doesnt need my advice, man. Hes going to kill it. I think everyone is really excited. It seems to be the story thats going on right now. Everyones pumped to see jimmy take over. And also, my buddy seth, its going to be cool and exciting. Snl taking over the world. By the way, i heard you do a wicked impression of jimmy. You heard that . Yes. Its very excitable. Im so excited right now. Did you hear that . Im so excited. Thats pretty much it. Golden globe winner andy samberg, hold your applause. Please. Thank you so much. Brooklyn 99 on fox. Coming up next, giada is here to take your lasagna to the next level. Stay with us for that . You know it. First, this is today on nbc.

No. Thats a short rib. Okay. You season them, brown them in a pan, take them out. Yeah. Yeah. Thats not very enthusiastic. And vegetables and red wine. And at this point shred. Yeah, right. They should just pull apart. And you now you can feed a cold piece to savannah. This is going to take a while.

What do we do . Spread it. You need more . Just like that. Perfect. Then you take it, so everybody can see and roll it. Roll it just like that. Like a jelly roll and land it on top of the tomato sauce. Can you drizzle it over it . Then you take the rest, dump the rest on top. Can we put our names on each of ours . Then you put parmesan cheese, olive oil and put it in the oven for about 25 to 30 minutes just like this. The portions are already done for you. Yeah. Brilliant. Good for kids that size, as well. Look. And youve got that frozen fried one. Yeah, i took a frozen lasagna and deconstruct it for you. Theyre into it. Its hot. Makes up for the short rib. You didnt want it to be cold.

Ingredients for life. From nbc news, this is todays take with al roker, Natalie Morales and willie geist live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. And good morning. Welcome to today on a Tuesday Morning, february 4th, 2014. Im al roker along with natalie. Willie is in sochi getting ready for the olympics. Well check in with him in a little bit. We were noticing the shot there. Clear skies right now, but were expecting round two. Get ready, here we go again. Yeah, another big storm coming. The weather channel, we name these winter storms. This one coming is nika with a k. And the one we just got rid of was maximus. We are going to be looking at another big blast. You look at the watches and warnings, it stretches about 2,000 miles. Oh, my gosh. Affects 115 Million People. And this is still not even the big one. The possibility of the big one. Everyone keeps talking about. Its going to be interesting. And already, as we were talking, airlines have started canceling flights about 540, 550 cancellations already. That number is just going to grow. You know what i feel like doing right now, though, seeing those cancellation delays is booking a flight to some tropical destination some time soon. Yeah, unless you get snowed in. Well be looking at a decent amount of snow. Were going to look at that in a little bit. But some areas already in the midwest are going to be looking at 10 to 12 inches of snow. North and west of new york city by tomorrow, were going to be probably looking at 1 2 foot or more. I am so sick of winter. Not even through the worst of it. Last year was a benign winter. So if you average it out. Averages it out. Its not so bad. Its like a doublewhammy, you know. In this case, itll be a triplewhammy if we get this big noreaster sunday into monday. The only people who benefit from this kind of thing, my son, when hes shoveling, gave him 20 yesterday. Hes like, yeah, hit the jackpot. Okay. Next storm, ill give you another. Might as well give it to you and have you earn it. You know what hes saving his money for . A snowblower. You know what, we shouldve invested in that. Most kids want an ipad, josh wants a snowblower. All the neighborhood kids are getting good money from this. They are. And coming up, well explain why this has been happening. In the meantime, our good friend willie geist is in sochi in putin world. Oh, i like the vest. Very nice. Very official now wearing the thank you. Im trying to come with Something Different every day. Youve got to come and get some gear. Three days away now from the opening ceremony. Youre starting to feel it, the security stepped up a little bit. Were going to have all kinds of events in a matter of 48 hours or so taking place here down in the coastal cluster. I went up in the mountain cluster. Up there youll get alpine skiing, snowboarding, things like that. About a 45minute drive from here, 45 minutes on the new train, theres a new highway and train. Beautiful, beautiful village of rosa couture up there. I also got a chance to speak with the u. S. Womens bobsled team, highlighted, of course, by lolo jones. Got to sit down with them. Youll see some of that coming up later in the week. Theyre talking about a podium sweep. They want usa to take every medal in womens bobsled. Ive got gear to show you. This is cheese right here, cheddar, this is 5,000 russian rubles. It feels like a lot of money. It may not be, but thats 20,000 in my hand right here. What will that buy you . Dinner tonight . This will get you about hot dog and a diet coke. Thats good. Does it have putin on the dollar . On the ruble . Not yet. Not yet, al. But you know thats coming. If the olympics go well, hell probably put himself on all the money. I hear youre going to give us a little russian lesson here. Yeah. Weve got hello and goodbye. Hello is privyet. And then goodbye is dos vidania. Taking the easy stuff first, well go into phrases later in the week. Oh, start working on your russian, willie. All right. Well see you in a bit. All right. Well, so now we have facebook. And now youre talking now im talking. I have a feeling when you come back from these olympics, thats going to be all well hear. Itll be bad. Facebook turning ten today. Thats right. And savannah interviewed Mark Zuckerberg, saw that earlier in the show to mark the tenth anniversary, only 19 years old when he founded facebook. He was in his dorm room having pizza with friends after he just started facebook and launched what is something that transformed and changed the generation of kids and media and how we how we work on our computers and socialize on our computers these days. Its funny because he said somebody needs to build this service for the world and thats what he did. He did. 1. 1 billion users now on facebook. Only 1. 1 . 1. 1 billion. A little russian there. Yeah. In 2004, jude law was People Magazines sexiest man alive. This is a list according to mashable. Number one on the billboard top 100 was hey yeah. It was by outkast. I like that song. Top film, you may remember this one, butterfly effect starring a tenyear younger ashton kutcher. Good movie. I remember that. Looks so young there, right . Okay. Made us think about what we were doing a decade ago. I was actually working at msnbc and here. You were here. There i am, msnbc. I like that. The anchor. I know what im talking about look. Yeah. Lean out. Yeah. And there you go. Okay. Al ten years ago. There it is. Actually, thats a picture of my wax figure. Kind of looks like your wax figure. Youve changed. Youve gotten younger in the ten years. Because i look so old to begin with. Thank you. No, youve reversed aging. I act like im reverse aging, unfortunately. Most of us should act like were reverse aging. Its a good thing. Keeps you young at heart. So heres an interesting controversy. This is happened at a school in wisconsin. Has some parents upset. Parents say the staff at the middle school were asking students inappropriate and highly personal questions in a game of what they call cross the line. But this was supposed to be part of their antibullying program. What were some of the questions . Some of the questions were, do your parents drink . You know, i think every kid, probably, yeah. Is one that was a little inappropriate. Has anyone in your family been in jail . Thats inappropriate. Well, the school says the students had the choice to participate. Again, this was part of their bullying program. So if this is what theyre doing as their antibullying program, makes you scratch your head. I dont understand how is asking if your one of your Family Members has been in the slam, how that yeah. Thats what a lot of parents are saying today. How does this have anything to do with prevention of bullying . Unless, if it turns out somebody finds out youve got somebody in jail and they teasing you. But then, thats certainly going to help by asking that question and putting it out there. And now its public knowledge. Unless they want to send the offending Family Member with a cake with a file in it. Were trying to get a comment from the school. And trying to see what theyre doing to resolve the issue. Sounds like the program didnt go over so well, as you can imagine. Probably not. Not exactly smart programming there. Now, we go to another school thats a little more creative. And we want to show you this unique way for this school to announce closings because of snow. Stevens elementary in burlington, kentucky. Check it out. We just got a call, breaking news, school is closed, school is closed, sorry, parents for another day. Very, very frightening, school is canceled. School is canceled. Because its cold. So everyone grab a snuggie and watch tv or play the wii and maybe read we are canceled for tomorrow. Canceled for tomorrow. Canceled for tomorrow. Fantastic. The principal and the drama teacher there chad caldwell making it to the tune of queens bohemian rapsody. Im not singing for you, roker. Thats a first. I need to think of a good weather song. Youve turned it down . I need to think about it. Its like karaoke, theres a lot of pressure. Okay. Look, you can see how widespread the watches and warnings are. Here we go, freezing rain in central and northern arkansas, snow back through oklahoma on into kansas. This snow areas going to expand very rapidly today, from colorado all the way into ohio. Late tonight, early tomorrow, into new york. And then this low pressure system develops off the coast, cold air to the north, thats mostly snow. Warm air coming up off the ocean. And so weve got an icy mix. Heres what were looking for as far as accumulations. And in parts of virginia, maryland and on into west virginia, we could be looking at over an inch of ice. That can be crippling with power lines going down, trees going down. And snow you can see generally about 3 to 6 inches of snow, although theres a wider swath of 6 to 9 inches. And in fact, that even makes its way into parts of the northeast. Thats w 9 10 on a Tuesday Morning. Good morning im christina loren. Cold day shaping up, clouds increasing all day long. Were going to hold off on the rain until tomorrow. Expect most of the shower activity to be north of the Golden Gate Bridge until tomorrow. Late thursday to friday well see another round of rain and then through saturday and sunday a stronger more potent system moves into the bay area. You got a song . Yeah, i do. Okay. Here we go. I really cant stay baby its cold outside ive got to go away baby its cold outside i dont know. The song played over and over again during the holidays and i still dont know the words to the song.

Well, maybe youre shopping around for a new tv, or maybe planning a date night with your spouse. Well, when it comes to taking care of your money, health and relationship, there are certain days of the week that are better than others. Back with us this morning once again, day two, we have dr. Evelyn manaia, and relationship expert ian kerner. Good morning all. Good morning. The best days of the week. We talked about best time to schedule a doctors appointment. Lets talk about best day to schedule the doctor appointment. What should you aim for . You should try to aim for monday or tuesday, especially if youre concerned of anything. And only because if you are, cultures and bloodwork and whatnot will come before friday. That way you have clear for friday, for the weekend. However, if you pick friday, which is really the worst time, you know, especially if its a long weekend, youre going to be short staffed on the labs and things like that. Youre going to be worried about concerns you might have and not on time. Friday is the not good day to schedule an appointment for. You decide you want to go out to eat with the family. Best day. Best day is wednesday. You tend not to overindulge. You have to go to bed early because you have to work the next day, school the next day and things like that. I think thats really the best time to do it. Worst day of the week to go out with the family . I think its saturday, even though i know its date night. I really do. I look forward to it, trust me, i know these things. However, especially if you pick pick one, friday or saturday, have one day that you cook at home. And then if youre going to do on saturday night, you tend to do later and then you interrupt your sleep. Overindulge. And overindulge and drink because you dont have to get up on sunday for anything. Thats it. Okay. Im working on building the muscle strength in the arm. Okay. Tmi. As far as getting the new tv or laptop, whats the best day . After you get your good news from your doctor, you head over to the store on monday, because that is when manufacturers start implementing those rebates and the discount on the prices. The customer could save up to 10 to 50 and the prices will be online as they are in the stores, as well. Worst day of the week to Purchase Electronics both online and at the store. That would be friday. Stores know theres going to be a lot more traffic in the stores. Theyre going to up those prices. A study was done on laptops and computers. Retailers increased the prices from 10 to 50. Wow. Lets say you have problems with that new tv. Best day to call for Customer Service. The best day is on wednesday. And part of the reason why is because Customer Service is going to experience the lull in the middle of the week. Theyre not overwhelmed with calls, theyre going to want to focus on you and your problem. And lets face it, the real issue calling Customer Service is, one, you want your problem fixed, and two, you dont want to stay on the phone with them forever. Thats the best day to get your problem fixed and out of there. Worst day of the week to call in Customer Service. Monday. Youre not the only one thats going to call Customer Service on the first thing on their to do list. You dont want to join the masses. Again, make sure you get off the phone quickly, dont call on monday. Date night, best night. Im going to be a little counterintuitive and say thursday night. I know people want friday nights or saturday nights, but what ive noticed, you want the family time, you want the kid time. Dont want to feel guilty. You want it all. So thursday night is a great night to go out after work, have a nice dinner, you can still get home relatively early and kind of bolster yourself for the weekend ahead. I agree with that. Friday, youre pooped. And date nights are certainly important. We probably shouldve done this one first. Whats the best day to pick a fight with your spouse . Well no day is good day to pick a fight. No day is good. But if you are going to fight, remember, you always want to be more positive than negative even when you argue. Thats the difference between couples who succeed and fail. Im going to go out and say tuesday is the best day to start arguing because monday, you really need to transition back into work. Dont you have enough fights to pick on monday at work with your boss we mails . Tonight weve got to go home and start picking a fight. Save it for tuesday. Ill go home to joe, pick a fight with him, you go home to debra, pick a fight with her. Worst day of the week to pick a fight . Mondays are terrible for anything. And even sundays when you have potentially family and kids around and its a little claustrophobic and youre smothered by people. Or even fridays, youre stuck with that person all weekend long. Give them the silent treatment all weekend. No good day. Guys, thank you so much. Thanks. Youre going to come back tomorrow . Yes. One more round of this. Coming up next, getting you caught up on the news you need before you walk out the door. And look who decided to show up early this morning. Hi. Hey. Thats an incredible story.

Taking a look at the headlines, extra sugar in the diet has long been cited as a risk factor for obesity and heart problems. Now, a new study looks at how much sugar is needed to cause damage. And researchers suggest heart damage and weight gain occur once added sugars exceed 15 of your total calories. Thats only about 300 calories for people on a 2,000 calorie a day diet. And you can reach this by eating a big bowl of sugary cereal or soda every day for a week. The food and Drug Administration launching a 115 Million Campaign. The federal agency is using ads that depict yellow teeth and wrinkled skin to highlight the cost of cigarette smoking. The campaign will use a mix of tv and magazine ads as well as social media. The fda aims to reduce the number of youth cigarette smokers by at least 300,000 within three years. A deep freeze caused Citrus Growers hundreds of millions of dollars but its the consumers footing the bill. A week of freezing temperatures in december cost californias Citrus Growers about 441 million in lost crops. That will likely mean an increase in the prices of oranges at the grocery store. Juice prices, though, will not be affected. The majority of californias citrus crop is eaten as fruit and not as juice.

Its sad, but its happy. Bittersweet. It is, absolutely. How about a check of the weather . I think jay ought to come and do weather. Thatd be great. Storm track from last week basically it was off the coast. And so that allowed that arctic air to funnel down to the south, and thats why we ended up seeing the snow and ice, basically crippled parts of the south. Well, this week, the storm track is more inland. And so the snow and ice has pushed up to the north. Its rain along the coast, and so heres whats going on. We see the european model for this weekend. Sunday into monday, moving pretty quickly these two storm tracks move offshore. And so were not looking at a lot of precipitation here in the northeast. Certainly not a lot of snow. However, the american storm track which has been handling these storms pretty well. Early monday morning into the day on monday, it makes its way off the coast. The two storms merge as one. Much stronger, its going to be windier, and we look for a lot of snow. So this one could be if this comes to fruition, it is going to be a mess. Well, of course, fine tune this for you as we head toward hey, thank you, al. Were looking forward to some much needed rainfall. Not just yet, though. Today is the last dry day. Temperatures are really crisp out there. Shoes at 44 degrees. Looking good in the south bay here. Up to about 50 degrees by noon. Even at 4 00 p. M. , ramping up those numbers. Rains through the later portion of wednesday, and another round ,n the way saturday into sunday. E you ever gone through a difficult experience and wish you could know how it would all turn out later . Like fast forward ten years . Well, our pal hoda kotb shares some stories in her book ten years later. Six folks who faced adversity and transformed their lives and its out in paperback today. Congratulations. How fun to be on the 9 00 with you crazy kids. So these people had gamechanging moments in life from illnesses to job loss and unspeakable tragedy. And a decade later, i wanted to see how their lives changed in ways they never couldve imagined. Reporter during tough times, have you ever wished you could fast forward through your life and just maybe that view of the future would give you hope . Well, many people deal with sorrow and loss, but also dream of a brighter tomorrow. Like amy barnes. More than a decade ago at almost 500 pounds, this mother of two battled low selfesteem and felt trapped in an abusive relationship. How would she break away and finally lose the weight . Or ron clifford who on september 11th escorted a burned woman to safety after the towers were hit only later to discover that his own sister and niece were passengers on united flight 175 which hit the World Trade Center on that tragic day. How would he find peace to move on with his life . And lindsay beck, at 22, she fought two bouts with a rare cancer only to learn that the lifesaving chemotherapy treating her would probably leave her infertile. How would she conquer cancer while holding on to the hope of having children in the future . Ten years later, the endings to the stories may not only surprise you but inspire you, as well. I love this. If you could look through the Looking Glass yeah. Life gets better. What was it you wanted to do to inspire people with this book . I think sometimes when you hit a road block like that, you think youre stuck in the weeds and wonder, am i ever going to get out of here . So when we found these six people, we thought, you know what, if they can do this, what they are able to accomplish in this book, i can do whatever im worried about because what these people have been through is remarkable. And you wonder, does your life really change or are you still who you were before . And i think this explores that and shows i think we sort of are the essence of who we are. For example, amy barnes, 500 pounds can you believe . Mother of two. She weighed 500 pounds, was in the worst relationship, horribly abusive and, you know sometimes youre so scared you dont know what else is out there that might be better than where you are. And one day, her the person she was living with just beat her senseless. She was bloody in the bathroom and her son walked in and with a bath mat tried to mop her face off and said, mom, i want you to be beautiful again. And this woman turned her life around. If youre struggling with weight loss or abuse. Look at her after picture. Amazing. And her exterior is a tiny part of how shes changed. Shes changed from the inside out. Shes empowering other women who suffered in abusive relationships, as well. Shes so strong. Makes you feel like you can make it through anything. I love the story of the woman in the book who founded a product. Can i tell you something . She was fired twice as a waitress, had a couple of kids, no husband, everything was terrible, shes driving down some country road. She sees a guy with a beard, this guy, looks like a lumber jack and hes got a pickle jar full of honey and said what is that. And he said, im trying to sell honey. She helps him package it. So theyre selling this honey, its going like hotcakes, making candles. And she said what should we call this and goes out to the beehives and its called burts bees. And that guys face is on all the products. Its like hes one of the smith brothers. He went on to sell it for multimillion how about your life . You have transformed your life. Which was terrific to begin with, but youve gone through a lot of adversity from illness to personal tragedy. Yeah. And youve come out of the other side. I think when youre in that spot and you go through an illness like i did. Everyone has their cross to bear, you wonder what am i going to be like later . And every time someone said to me, i got stronger because of cancer, i was creeped out but you guys know yourselves, if youve been through something, it did change the path of my life. Do you guys have something in your lives . Well, i think for me, it was, you know, i actually had secondary infertility. After having josh, we tried years to have a child and took us four years and then finally one day i just near christmas time in 2007, i said you know what, im going to give ourselves a Christmas Present and were going to make this happen. I thought it had to be the natural way, it doesnt. I went in for medical intervention and thankfully we got pregnant. I cant imagine not having my second son. I had infertility issues and adopted courtney who is now 27 and a chef. And then through ivf had nikki and leila. Can i tell you . What a great family. And we had remember at the ivy. New years eve, we had dinner with the rokers, baby, theyre fun. This is such a great thank you for having me on. I appreciate it. It is a great inspirational message for all of us. Thanks, guys.

And back now with our special series and a young boy whose commitment to help others is beyond his years. Hes 10 years old, but it was a visit to one of los angeles poorest areas when he was just a preschooler that changed his life. Meet jonas corona. I have a Nonprofit Organization called love in the mirror. I help homeless and disadvantaged youth. His passion for giving back started when he went with his family to feed the homeless in los angeles notorious skid row at the age of 4. But he wanted to get more involved. I saw a homeless kid, and it just really made me feel really sad. My mom contacted shelters and missions, and they all said no, i couldnt volunteer because i had to be 10 and i was only 6 at the time. He wanted to do more and did not understand the concept of going once a month. We wanted to know why we werent there every day. At the ripe old age of 6, jonas decided to form his own charity dedicated to helping kids who are less fortunate. Today, jonas and other young volunteers are sorting through supplies, donated to love in the mirror by companies and individual supporters. I think when theres poor people, its sad because theyre just living on the street. I want to make a difference and help them. What do we have . These supplies are being donated to a youth shelter, a temporary residence for teens in crisis. Robin sinclair is the executive director. Well, this is fantastic. Were very fortunate. If it wasnt for people like you, i mean, we wouldnt be able to help the kids we help. He found out about us, and then is doing the footwork. And you can tell hes not doing it for any other reason but just to be a good kid and help others. A good kid, wise beyond his years. Its not right for kids and adults to be on the streets having nothing. Everybody should have a home. Everybody should have a place to eat or live. Everyone should have something. Boy, his parents have done something right to inspire a young man to do Something Like that. Little kid with a big heart. Yeah.

We all want to look younger, but you dont want to spend a fortune on drugstore creams and cleansers were not sure work. Well, here to help us look for what we need in antiaging based on your skin type is dr. Elizabeth tandy. You say when it comes to you skin, the best offense is a good defense. What should we avoid . What are the two things to avoid . Before talking about the nighttime treatments, you have to avoid the biggest culprits in aging skin which is sun and smoking. So for sun, theres a tremendous amount of damage, you want to wear spf30 every day. And if youre going to be out more than five or ten minutes directly, pair that with a hat. Plus, smoking does a lot of damage to the skin, not only the skin, but also you want to stop smoking immediately for to reduce the risk of cancer, heart attack and stroke. Lets talk about antiaging programs you have. And what are some things you should be doing in your Health Regimen . Well, in general, there are a lot of great inexpensive products you can get over the counter. But it can be a little overwhelming when you see all the different products there. So were going to try to break it down to skin type. So in addition to that sunscreen in the morning, you want a nighttime routine. So different skin types want to look for different ingredients. Ingredients. Oily skin, for example. Oily skin and acne prone skin, look for retinol in your product as well as glycolic acid. Helps simulate collagen for rejuvenation purposes. But then its used to keep the pores open. If you have the two problems, which is not unusual, this is something to look for, the combination of the two. The retinol and the glycolic. What about dry skin . Dry skin, the skin is depl e depleted of the natural moisture levels, which makes it more vulnerable to irritation. Look for products that had essential oils and shea butter. And then instead of the retinol, which can be irritating, look for a product an ingredient called peptides. A gentler way to stimulate collagen. You see these really expensive ones, you know, like at the department stores. The stuff you get at the drugstore just as good . Its good, but you have to know what youre looking for. You want to look for for dry skin, the oils plus the peptides. Read labels for food, you want to do it for products. Absolutely. Because you can really find some great products even at the drugstore. Now, for sensitive skin, you can use retinol. But you want to look for a combination product with something. People get worried about hearing acid with skin. Its not an acid, its a hydrating gel that helps soothe the skin. And when you pair it with retinol, even patients with sensitive even people with sensitive skin can use that. Yeah. I think i use that one right there. Natalies husband falls into this category. Men are using this stuff. Who like to buy product. Right. Nothing wrong with that. I didnt say that. Mens skin care is the Fastest Growing segment of skin care market. And men are starting to feel more comfortable with taking care of their skin and looking good. And the good news is mens skin is actually less sensitive than women. They can really use high concentration of that retinol. And they can use it every night and give their skin a nice, healthy glow. My product. No, not that. The other stuff. Okay. Moving on here now to some of the more clinical stuff. And i guess since youre the person who likes to splurge on facials, you can get that at home, a little bit more of a splurge, but less expensive than being at the dermatologist. Right. So if you want to take your skin care up a notch at home, invest in one of these at home devices. Something like the sonic brush can help clean the skin so well that it enhances the penetration of all your skin care. Right. You actually get more out of your skin care. We spend millions of dollars on skin care every year. Like sanding a table to get the stain off. To get your moneys worth of everything else. What is this device . This is a personal microderm abrasion device. You exfoliate all that skin. Thank you so much. Weve got to go, unfortunately. My producers going to go out. [ mom ] hi, were the pearsons, and we love chex cereal. So we made our own commercial to tell you why. First, chex makes lots of gluten free flavors. Which is a huge thing for us.

Hello, everybody. So glad youre joining us on this pretty chilly tuesday, february 4th. The snow wont stop it cannot were warm inside the studio and warm inside our hearts because you know why . Why . You know why. Whos here . Colbie caillat is here. She has happy music. Every time you play a song of hers, puts you in a great mood. Her music is like she is, just adorable. We have our guys tell all panel, those guys are crazy and out of control. And somebody has been crazy and out of control and making a lot of money at it for many years. Who . Jackie collins is here with her 30th novel. It is so hard to get on any list with Jackie Collins. I have a paperback coming out today, doesnt matter. Ill tell you why it doesnt matter, because Jackie Collins dominates all lists. She knows how to shes writing her 31st. Thats unbelievable. Will come out around the next time your book does. We have some updates and more life saving lessons, everybody. If you have times when you saved your pets life, we would like to hear from you. Well be talking about cpr and things like that. Philip seymour hoffman, we have updates. As the days go on, you find out more and more, just a couple of things. Theyre going to dim the lights on broadway to honor him. He was a big broadway actor, nominated for a couple of tonies. Yep, yep, yep. There are makeshift memorials popping up, one right outside of the actors home. You think about what the police are saying, it is really astonishing, i think. They said they found 49 full bags of heroin and 23 empty bags. They found syringes. I mean along with six bottles of Prescription Drugs. And that was for things like adhd, anxiety and one actually used for treating drug addiction. Now, if all of that, we wont have toxicology for a while, but if those were in his system with the couple of bags of heroin and recently sober and then went back, putting that much into his body, i, you know it is such a loss for the acting community and you were able to you know, you live in that world a little bit more and know what people are saying. I was just talking with justin long last night, a good friend, i love justin, and apparently he was quite Close Friends with philip. And see and a bunch of his acting friends were out in l. A. Just sitting there just all telling phil stories, like you usually do. But theyre all stunned. Just stunned by this. We never heard he was never in the tabloids. We never heard about him stumbling out of nightclubs. There were sightings and some people said he looked disheveled and some falling asleep. None of the warning signs that the general public could see, im sure. The closest to him were very concerned about him. Some were even suggesting that thats the reason that he had recently broken up with his long time girlfriend and mother of three children. Yeah. Thats a horrible thing to have to live with when youre watching someone you love destroy themselves. And you also dont want your children around, you know, to see that happening. It does. It brings up the topic of addiction and how difficult it is for people to battle that. And it is one of those things you fight. Yeah, but we were talking this morning about the fact that even though a lot is being made about what a waste, what a waste, because it is, of this brilliant man, this life that is lost, but his life is no more valuable than a bum on skid row, who nobody knows his name, nobody knows where he came from. All life is precious. And i hope they find whoever is this dealer, apparently, there are many, many cases now of overdoses not just the heroin, but tainted version of this heroin. So i think it is interesting, i think a lot of times we look for the deal and i think thats important. You should find out who provided the drugs like everybody said about michael jackson. I think when you are at when you are an addict, you get your drugs from somewhere. If not from person a, from person b, person c, someone. So miley cyrus, you guys, in w magazine. We saw this in the paper the other day and we didnt know it was her. Didnt recognize her at all. Look at the photo. I thought it was gaga at first. Me too. And how many times have we not seen gaga just like that . Look at this picture. I was looking at her features going is that really her . It is her. Anyway, she bleached out her eyebrows and she didnt interview with ronan farrow, the guy who interviewed her for this. She talked about friends and she says basically she doesnt have a lot of them. She has a lot she can hang out with, but very, very few friends. Well, you know what, dont you sort of feel that way as well. Yeah. I mean, a lot of people youre friendly with but true friends. Probably just a handful. Yeah. She was talking to jay leno last week. I cant believe jays last show is thursday, by the way. This coming thursday. Anyway, and she asked well talk more about it in the coming days. She was asked by leno what advice she would give Justin Bieber and she said, you got a lot of money, pay people to make sure you dont get in trouble and party at your house. Buy a house and add a club to it. He has gotten in trouble, though, at his own house out in l. A. Im hearing good things, though, from his sources. You are . Im hearing that hes seeking some help and is aware things are spiraling. And thats First Step Towards getting the help you need. Yeah. Thats what we hope for. Okay. She says when miley was asked, i think more and more people, you know you can let us know if youre tired of us talking about miley. Yeah. But she does keep making news because shes smart and knows to say she wants to be relevant in the industry. But shes a talented girl. And when people think they have to shock you to stay relevant, surprises with the new record, unbelievable, thats the best. Thats the best way to stay relevant. Speaking of good music, this is such a cute video. So or cute or it is a little sad in a way. There is this young boy sitting in the back of the car and his there is a song that comes on the radio called say something. 4yearold jackson is listening to this song by christina aguilera, his dad mark kept a video camera rolling. But wanted to make sure his son was okay. Say something im giving up on you are you sure . You want me to change it . Its always that i couldnt get to you is it a sad song . If it makes you cry, i dont want to play a sad song for you. Want me to keep it on . Okay, give me a thumbs up that youre okay. Isnt that something . It shows you the power of music. And the chords that theyre using. And the soulfulness of it. I dont think he really understands at 4. Maybe. But like a little it is the happiest kid in the world but not afraid to bear his soul. Remember when the mom started to sing and the baby didnt know words or anything. Remember youre watching a movie and it is sad, youre sobbing but it is good if you want to cleanse. Little tiny cries also when he watches the lion king and the kroods. I still cry every time i see dumbo. What . Dumbo, when they take the mother elephant away, oh, my gosh. Oh. You dont . Whats wrong with you if you dont cry when they take the mother away . You might ask why are you still watching dumbo . Thats for me to know and you to find out. Here is the question well pose to you. At what age do you think hollywood actresses peak . If you think in your head, what is the peak age . Well, according to some study that somebody did study in the journal of management inquiry. The magic age is 34. All right . And then they start seeing a steady increase of pay through the 20s and after 34, rapidly declines. Men very different for men. Not the case. They peak at 51. Okay. So if you think about i dont think George Clooney peaked. I dont either. Sandra bullock is in her 40s, mid40s. I think shes i think theyre talking about actresses who have basically been known for playing leading ladies sexy roles. Theyre sex symbols. When that physical beauty starts to wain, though if you see the cover of People Magazine with christie brinkley, forget it, nothing has waned or fallen an inch. How is that possible . By the way, her body . She works hard at it, you know. I think it is very, very different for character actors. Somebody like maggie smith, kathy bates, helen mirren, they keep getting theyre fermenting and Getting Better with age. And always get roles. They sure do. But on the forbes list of 2013, only three of the top actresses were over 40. And they were jennifer aniston, Sandra Bullock and julia roberts. Okay. That can change too. Who has movies coming out this year, you know . Oh. Okay. A shoutout, hoda woman. The university of miami of ohio, sorry, the tri delt ladies made a video. Lets take a look. We love you, hoda well, they love their hello i wasnt in their sorority. There were no sororities at orel roberts university. We would encourage we would encourage colleges to send your videos and well show them. How about that . Well show you. I want a video from orel roberts university. All this week we have been trying to show you life saving series. So this one we want to end with pets. A lot of times you see your dog choking on something or if you have a situation very worried about bambino the other day.

But when i get time off, i take advantage of it. I have postmenopausal osteoporosis and a high risk for fracture and i know the best way to enjoy a break is to help reduce my risk of having one. Thats why i take prolia®. Its different. Its two shots a year. Prolia is proven to help make bones stronger and help increase bone density. Do not take prolia® if you have low blood calcium, are pregnant, are allergic to it, or take xgeva®. Get medical help right away for a serious allergic reaction causing low blood pressure; trouble breathing; throat, fa,e lip, or tongue swelling; or rash, itching or hives prolia® can cause serious side effects, including low blood calcium, serious infections, which could require hospitalization, and skin inflammation, rash, or eczema. Tell your doctor about dental problems, as severe jaw bone problems may happen, or new or unusual pain in your hip, groin or thigh, as unusual thigh bone fractures have occurred. Remember, the best breaks are the ones we have out there. Not in here. Take action. And talk to your doctor about prolia® today. That little guy cleans, brightens and fights stains.

She says this. Does a woman have any chance of breaking a mamas boy or should she just move on . I love that question. Why would she want to break a mamas boy . If a man treats his mother with a ton of respect, thats an indicator of how bob, are you a mamas boy . Yes. End of question. I love my mama. You got to have things, my mother tonight, she comes over, makes dinner for me and the kids, it is awesome. I wouldnt say im a mamas boy, but i love my mama. I think it depends. Does she clean the house and airplane feeding him still . There is a big difference. Were talking about the stereotypical one. I would say, if you really want to get him, get in with the mama. Go to the source of the problem. Get in with the mother. My wife, im not a mamas boy, but my wife and my mother are so close, my mother told me if you ever break up, i made my choice. It aint you. All right. Heres a question from lisa. How come my husband feels like he can ask me a question several times or beg me to do something several times but i can ask or remind him do something for me or around the house two times and he gets very upset . We will get upset about that. You got to know i think when that happens, you have to know what is best within you. So if youre going to ask your husband something, you need to know what he likes as well. Pick up the clothes. Picking up clothes is critical. If you say it four or five times, it may not work. It sounds look a keeping score thing. It is always so dangerous in relationships to keep score. Sometimes youre picking up more than one person, sometimes the other needs to pick up. But men are bad at keeping score. If the score is unless it is football. Yeah. Im going to say that as kind of the way you ask. Thats the problem. Men are like this. Hey, baby, did you remember to pay the electric bill . Women are like this, harry, pick up your clothes like im sorry, but thats kind of the difference. Youre like this poor harry. Be aware that men can actually answer without and have a full conversation without hearing anything. My wife can have a full conversation with me where shes like, make sure you go to the grocery store, get four lemmens, need it for dinner tonight, yes, lemons, great, and not have heard a word. Did you hear what i said . Yes. Or make him keep asking about this and get your permission to go. Quid pro quo. Okay. Here is from jodie. Jodie says i wonder why guys dont break up with a girl instead of going radio silent. I dated a guy for two months, nothing serious, but then nothing. Didnt say a word and stopped calling. First of all, there is a problem when you say i dated a guy for two months and it was serious. It wasnt serious. Wasnt serious. But serious is your hearing problem. Oh stop it. Why do they do that . Ill be very honest. Fear. We are afraid of you and your response because your response could be very it could be anything, violence. Property damage. Ive had that happen to me. Maybe keep it on the line a little bit, while still trying to figure things out. Were slow to process. I think you hit on it, confrontation is crypt knight to men. Passive aggressive is the first language we learn and we have to get into a situation where, you know, were a bad guy and they break up with us and it is like, thank god i didnt have to have that conversation. Again, rule number one, be cool. Dont be pressed. If the guy wants to let go and not call you for a couple of weeks, move on in your mind. I promise you, he will be back if you do not act pressed.

It shares the stories of six people who face lifes toughest challenges and underwent a personal transformation. So we asked you if youve been inspired by the stories in hodas book and have made changes of your own and then we reached out to two of you. Were going to meet those viewers in a minute. First, lets watch their stories. On january 15th, 2004, joe, my loving husband of five years at the time, suffered a massive stroke at the age of 31 while training at camp pendleton. He had served his country in the United States navy for 11 years. At the time our two beautiful boys were just 3 1 2 and 6 months old. Here i was, a new mother of two, with a husband who had had a stroke, wiping out the entire right side of his brain, leaving us with very little shope of survival. Thankfully joe persevered. Despite the odds, not only did he survive, but he also learned to walk again, a feat doctors never thought possible. Though he survived, we realized our lives would never be the same. It has been a long journey of letting go of our old lives and adjusting to our new lives. Ten years later i was reflecting about our journey and was inspired to plan a life of celebration. On january 15th, 2014, ten years to the day from joes accident, we celebrated his triumph at a Dave Matthews concert in new orleans. I try to never miss to a Dave Matthews concert. Celebrate we will because life is short, but sweet for certain. On january 6th, 2012, i walked into the medical university of South Carolina with shortness of breath. It wouldnt be until 86 days later that i would actually walk back out of the hospital. Hey. When i finally came to, i had no idea that i had been fighting for my life. I was completely unaware of the fact that i had been through two rounds of chemo, dialysis, pneumonia and 40 days on and off of ventilators. I was eventually sent to a Rehab Facility to learn how to walk all over again and get my strength back. None of this would prove to be the biggest obstacle of the life. But the now what to do with my life would haunt me. Around that time i saw an interview with hold why where she said the words, you cant scare me. I realized i spent my whole life scared of fear itself and if i too could overcome a huge medical obstacle, i had nothing to be scared of either. After reading hodas book that a friend gave me, i felt like it was talking straight to me with all the stories of people overcoming adversity. I learned we can choose to be weak or we can choose to be strong and face obstacles head on. Thanks to hoda, i now know that in of aftermath of facing a challenge, anything that comes my way cannot and will not scare me. Wow. Beautiful. Oh, my god. Joe and amy are here, mallory. Hi, guys. Everybody is reaching for the kleenex, hoda woman. Mallory, lets start with you. Im so fascinated by your story. You knew you had lupus going in, but explain what happened and how you got to where you were. Around the time i was 17 i was told i had rheumatoid arthritis. And since then i was in and out of the hospital, they have a joke i should have a frequent flier card at the hospital. I found out i had lupus when i was 23 and i was healthy for a year and a half and had a brush with pneumonia and walked in and the second night i went to icu and didnt come back out for a while. They said you clinically died and came back. February 8th, my second birthday, i coded he and was down for over five minutes but had a great staff that saved my life and brought me back. What a beautiful letter you wrote about your wonderful husband, overcoming. You found a new life, the two of you, didnt you . Yes. Tell us about that. Well, it has been a long journey, just the toughest part has been letting go of our past life and thats been the biggest struggle and i dont think a lot of people understand after you survive a brain injury, you have to let go of everything that you had planned for for your life, but we have, with time, learned to let go and have found happiness again. Strength. You see it. When we walk in, joe is, like, bear hugging everybody. It is like youre so full of life and love. How are you feeling . I feel great. You do . Yes. How important was the love of this woman in your recovery . Everything. Everything. I think part of it is knowing youre not alone. I think a lot of people who see this may be suffering or going through difficult times. You wonder how can i make it through . You are an inspiration. We wanted to say thank you for what you do. And i guess mallory, well start with you, it is your second birthday. Because, you know, you died and came back to life. We got you a little second birthday cake. Aw. We hope you like it. Happy second birthday. And mallory, if youre not busy after the show, i have a few things i need to do, i wanted to know if you wanted to hang out with me and spend a little time. Yes. Hang out with hoda all day long. We have a couple of hang out with me. Well have some fun. Share the cake. And share the cake. And the lovely couple here, we know you celebrated the Dave Matthews concert, you enjoyed that. We knew that you were Dave Matthews lovers, so we decided that you should go back for another concert. Yeah. What do you think . When they come this summer in indianapolis . So we got you a Dave Matthews basket and tickets to another concert so you can relive that. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for reading the book and thank you for being so inspiring to everybody. Joe, thanks. Thanks. Thank you. Have a great time.

If you are choking, this is very serious, you have something that happened with your family not too long ago with choking, just remember, if youre choking, relax, relax.

What about somebody having an allergic reaction. You dont want to look like a blowfish. The first thing you do if someone is having an allergic reaction, remove them from the situation.
