Stiller has died. This morning tributes breaking in. Breaking barriers. Both sound and gender. We are taking to the skies with the iconic blue angels firstever female pilot as we honor those who currently serve our country and those who gave their lives for it. Today, monday may 25th 2015. Announcer from nbc news this is today with matt lauer and Savannah Guthrie live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. And welcome to today on this monday morning. It is memorial day 2015. Im willie geist. And im tamron hall along with she ned jones and dylan dreyer. We have men and women on the plaza keeping everyone company. Well say hello to them later. First lets get to todays top story. That damaging and deadly flooding in the south. The images coming out of texas and oklahoma are just unreal. Entire neighborhoods submerged. Crews using boats and helicopters to use rescues. Gabe gutierrez is in hardhit texas. Gabe good morning. Reporter willie good morning. This is some of the incredible damage weve seen. These three small houses they had been across the street. Now, residents here say some of this damage looks more like a tornado than a flood. So far at least three people have been confirmed killed in texas and oklahoma. And today authorities are searching for at least eight others missing including several children. This morning in texas, a crushing memorial day. Hundreds of people waking up homeless. Local officials calling this flooding historic and catastrophic. We do have whole streets that have maybe one or two houses left on them and the rest of them are slabs. Reporter here in wimberley, one man survived but his wife and two children are missing. They were staying in a house along the blanco river saturday night. The river reached flood stage at 12 feet. It took more than an hour for it to crest at 43. This water rose quickly here. Look at where that desk ended up. All the way up in that tree. Emergency workers raced to rescue trapped homeowners and drivers. Oh my gosh stop stop stop he needs to get out reporter an elderly man was saved just moments before a raging river took over his suv. But captain jason farley a veteran firefighter, drowned while trying to rescue people. He was a very good man. Reporter late sunday tornado warnings were issued for parts of kansas missouri iowa and illinois. Back in texas, the Damage Assessment is just beginning. This small resort wiped out. When you come down here you can tell its going to take months to fix a lot of this stuff. Reporter overnight there was a nighttime curfew that was in effect. Many memorial day events in this area have been canceled and the governor of texas is set to tour some of this damage later today. Willie . Those pictures are just astounding. Let the people there know were thinking about them today. Thank you so much. Dylan, not a lot of relief there either. No. We still have more rain in the forecast. This area picks up to 2 to 4 inches of rain in may on average. And we have already seen nearly 20 inches in parts of southeastern oklahoma. Oklahoma city 18. 7 inches so far this may alone. Dallas nearly a foot of rain. Houston, 7 inches of rain. The problem is the rivers. The ground is saturated and any additional rainfall seeps into the rivers. Some are rising 20 feet in one hour. Weve got this cold front moving in. Weve still got this moisture streams in from the gulf of mexico. 25 Million People are under this Flash Flood Watch including oklahoma, texas, and parts of arkansas and western louisiana. Any torrential downpours have the potential of producing more flash flooding. Also the risk of stronger storms in central texas. We also have to remember hail and isolated tornadoes are also possible. In addition to that 5 to 6 more inches of rain. We will see this push further to the east. By tuesday evening, just spotty showers in texas. Were still looking at heavier rain to move into the midwest. These are the bullseyes. Down near houston. Down near parts of southern miss. Thats where we could end up with up to 8 inches of rain in ground thats already saturated. Thank you very much. Now to a scary scene near the u. S. Capitol. Take a look. A bomb squad called in to destroy a Pressure Cooker found in a suspicious vehicle. Nbcs justice correspondent Pete Williams has more for us. Pete good morning. Whats the latest there . Reporter well tamron u. S. Capitol police are not saying exactly what attracted their attention to the car parked at the foot of the u. S. Capitol on the west side toward the national mall. But when they took a closer look they detected an odor of gasoline and inside saw a Pressure Cooker. Those cooking pots have been used to make bombs in the past. So they closed off the street for a couple of blocks in both directions and called in a bomb squad. That team searched the car and removed the items and blew them up. Capitol police say nothing hazardous was found. The driver from suburban washington, d. C. Has been arrested but the charge was driving on expired license. The car was discovered before the memorial day concert. Ever since the Boston Marathon bombing, Pressure Cookers have attracted police attention. An issue of the online al qaeda magazine included instructions on how to use them to include bombs. Thank you very much pete. On this memorial day we pay trip yut to the men and women who have died serving the country. Right now nearly 10,000 troops are still stationed in afghanistan. About 3,000 more in iraq. An isis militant seized control of ramadi last week. A debate is raging over whether the u. S. Needs to change its strategy in its fight against isis. Ashton carter was blunt when talking about the problem. They withdrew from the site. And that says to me and i think most of us that we have an issue with the will of the iraqis to fight isil and defend themselves. Retired general jack jacobs has been awarded the medal of honor. Hes now an nbc correspondent. Colonel jack jacobs is with us. Its always good to see you, sir. Good morning, willie. Lets pick up on the sound bite from secretary carter. It seems that is at the heart of the u. S. Strategy. Partnering with the Iraqi Military to defeat isis. Where do we go from here . Well i cant see any place reasonable to go from here. When secretary carter says the iraqis lack the will to fight, its difficult to envision how were going to get them to have the will to fight after all this time. You have corrupt government in baghdad. Now youve got were supporting shia militias to go in. I cant see how the country holds together and i cant see what we can do short of sending several hundreds of thousands of americans back to iraq to hold that country together. The path ahead is very very difficult indeed. Colonel jacobs, president obama said this week the fall of ramadi was a technical setback. He said isis is on the defensive. Do you agree with the president s assessment . No i dont at all. Its difficult to envision what our strategy is. We have lots of tactics. I mean we bomb the bad guys. We have people on the ground to train iraqis which doesnt seem to have worked well. But its impossible to determine what our longterm strategy is. I think we need to sit down and think what we want the end to look like. If you dont know where youre going, any road will take you there. At the moment it doesnt seem as if we know exactly where were going. And exhortations by people like former secretary gates that what we really need to do is send more troops more advisers more aircraft in to bomb isis that doesnt make any sense. Because as anybody whos fought in combat knows, air power, artillery support, is only good to the extent it supports the troops on the ground who have to seize and hold terrain. Short of the iraqis being able to seize and hold terrain that we help them win back i cant see any way forward at all. Colonel jacobs before i let you go a lot of people waking up right now getting ready to go to parades and have picnics and watch fireworks. As i watch you stand there in front of the Vietnam Memorial i imagine this day means Something Different to you. Well behind me are the names of 58,300someodd of my brothers people who gave their lives so we can enjoy today. We have to remember that today is not just a time to get together with family and friends and have a good time and overeat yet again. Which is what we all do. But to stop and reflect about how we got here how we can enjoy a day like today. And its because of the people whose names are on that wall behind me. Amen. Colonel jack jacobs a great american. Good to see you, sir. Good to see you. You know there are people that you meet in your life and once you meet colonel jack jacobs you know there is something so special about him. Great work from him today. Meanwhile, sheinelle is here with a disturbing story out of louisiana. A Police Officer for the new Orleans Housing authority was shot and killed while sitting in his patrol car. Police say the officer was working overtime to guard a Public Housing construction site. His body was found early sunday morning. The officers name has not been released. Police are still searching for possible suspects in the case. Tragedy in albuquerque, new mexico this weekend. The father and a 12yearold boy were killed when a strong gust of wind toppled the cherry picker they were in. Three other children were seriously hurt. Police say the booms that are supposed to secure the machine were not in place at the time of the accident. It was at its maximum height. A sixstory fall. Neighbors say the man often took kids up in his cherry picker. Former israeli Prime Minister was sentenced to eight months in prison today. Olmert was convicted in march in a retrial. Todays sentencing comes after a sixyear prison sentence he got last year in a separate bribery conviction. He hoped to bring about peace with the palestinians. The Tampa Bay Lightning now one trip away from the stanley cup finals. The lightning beat the rangers in game five of the finals. Game six is tomorrow night in tampa. And from the skating stars of today to the stars of tomorrow. Children in cuba got a rare look at ice skating thanks to an artist. Using special materials, the surface resembles ice but doesnt melt. The rink will stay in the capital for another three days in part of a festival that features artists. Ice that doesnt melt . That blows my mind. But its not ice. Yeah, but they use ice skates. I felt like that should be in parts of this country. But im happy we could smile because the grown from the rangers fans i cant handle that. That was icy. I felt it. All right, sheinelle. Thanks. Dylan . We have a lot of rain to talk about. Across most of the country, actually. The heaviest is through texas. But we have heavier rain and downpours into the gulf coast. The eastern seaboard is enjoying a nice memorial day. Temperatures heating up. Highs today should top out in the mid to upper 80 and thats your latest forecast. Thank you very much. Well the race for the white house is getting crowded on the republican side. Nearly 20 hopefuls so far with others yet to announce. And that could present the gop with a serious problem once the debates get underway. Heres nbcs capitol hill correspondent kelly odonnell. Reporter so much ambition. So little elbow room. Theres only 55 people that are thinking about running for president. Best i can tell. Reporter a republican race that looks supersized. Is this the ready for Hillary Group . Reporter well you could say that about this jumbo lineup of competitors. So many faces, almost 20. They do not easily fit on one screen or more importantly, on one debate stage. If youre a candidate and not on the stage, youre not going to have the kind of momentum you need to move forward. So expect a lot of the campaigns now to kick into gear. Reporter count on twitter to offer these space saving solutions. Imagine the Hollywood Squares debate model. Or even a 2016 republican primary bracket. But any lineup is a logistics challenge for the Republican National committee. Were trying to figure out how many we can fit on a debate stage. Reporter but the rnc is not the decider in chief. Instead, each network host for nine debates will determine the qualifications. Each candidate is going to have to determine what their strategy is as we head into the first debate this august. Im quite confident ill be on the debate stage. Reporter but can Carly Fiorina make the cut . Let me come and be on the stage all by myself. Reporter or Mike Huckabee . He believes he deserves a chance. But when republicans gather in cleveland this august for the first debate only the top ten will get a microphone. Based on an average of their poll numbers. To be a winner you have to think like a winner. Reporter donald trump might have the name recognition needed to crack the top ten. But with no front runner and the biggest field in gop history, making the debate team is the summers real prize. For today, kelly odonnell, nbc news washington. Theres mustsee tv and then theres that. Thats going to be a great series of debates just from the personalities alone. Then you get to the policies. The two parties are polar opposites. 20 on one side and 2 so far on the other. Meantime tributes are pouring in this morning for actress and comedian the great ann meara. Stars of movies tv the stage for nearly 60 years. She died over the weekend at the age of 85. Carson has more on her life and career. Good morning. Good morning, guys.

Reporter she never missed a chance to poke fun at her husband even here on today. Why do you you let them ask the question . Why . Reporter she spoke proudly at an event for son ben stiller.

Reporter they did not reveal the cause of death but released a statement saying in part, annes memory lives on in the hearts of daughter amy, son ben, her grandchildren, her extended family and the friends and the millions she entertained. And she was trending on facebook and twitter. Steve martin tweeting stiller and meara have been a wonderful presence in my life. I salute her.

Well be back with another update in about 25 minutes. Welcome back to today. The flag flying here on the plaza. So beautiful on this monday morning, memorial day. May 25th, 2015. Quite a crowd out there. Cant wait to get out there and say hello to them. Hopefully the day is off to a good start. Lets look at the headlines. Historic flooding wreaking havoc across parts of texas and oklahoma where at least three people now have died. Several others are missing. Some areas received nearly a months worth of rain just over the weekend. And more storms are expected today. A bomb squad had to be called in last night to destroy a Pressure Cooker found in a suspicious car near the u. S. Capitol. The vehicles owner was later found and arrested by capitol police. And wildlife Officials Say theyre struggling to deal with the oil spill in santa barbara. Hundreds of workers are putting in round the clock shifts overnight. Coming up an investigation on Airport Security badges. Hundreds of them missing or stolen. Are officials doing enough to track them back down . We begin this half hour with the Ongoing Investigation into the brutal quadruple murder case in washington, d. C. One suspect is in custody but did he have help . Heres craig melvin. Reporter this morning investigators want to know did suspect daron wint act alone or were others involved in the horrific murder of the family and their housekeeper. It would have been difficult for wint to have done this alone. Reporter investigators believe they were held captive for more than 19 hours. Shortly after a ransom was paid they were killed. Investigators say the crime required the presence and assistance of more than one person. It would have been difficult to control four different people three adults and a child. It would have been difficult to get to the house, get in dispose of one of the victims vehicles. Reporter wint who appeared in court friday has been charged with murder after police say his dna was found on pizza crust that was left in the room where the three adults were murdered. A Law Enforcement official tells our new york stage wnbc authorities tracked his cell phone to Brooklyn New York where this Surveillance Video shows part of the manhunt. The New York Daily News says according to authorities, wint took a taxi back to d. C. Paying 1,000 cash from the 40,000 ransom. Not confirmed by nbc news. He was arrested with five other individuals who were eventually released. One reason they would not keep them in custody is you would like them to talk. Youd like them to be out in the community, youd like them to be bragging. Reporter Court Documents also reveal a witness saying they saw an individual driving the porsche before it was later found torched. Describing seeing a man with short hair driving erratically. Court papers also reveals an assistant who worked for mr. Savopoulos lied to them about when and how the 40,000 in ransom was delivered. That assistant has not been charged. The investigation far from over. Our work is not done. We will continue to investigate this case and bring all charges that are appropriate in the coming weeks. Terrible story with a lot of questions to be answered. Now to a security concern at our nations airports. A few months back on nbc news investigation, it reveals the problem is larger than we knew. An Investigative Reporter for kxas has the latest. Reporter across the country, thousands of airport workers wear secure i. D. Badges. Its like carrying a key to some of the most secure areas of our nations biggest airports. This morning theres new information that more than 270 badges at san diegos airport were lost or stolen over two years. And raising even more red flags, records uncovered by our nbc station shows in eight cases they were not reported missing for weeks or months remaining active during all that time. The San Diego Airport Authority said they will try to minimize risk. But there have been security lapses elsewhere. Earlier this year we revealed 1400 badges lost or stolen at some of the nations busiest airports. Atlanta, most employees need to enter a code or hand to get in along with their badge. And the tsa says employees are instructed that they must have to report to authority their badges lost or stolen. But some worry thats not enough. When terrorists have an interest on getting their hands on these badges . Without question. How will you hold airports accountable reporter the issue was brought up in a hearing last thursday. I share your concern with the breaches of security that have been discovered over the past months. Reporter but senator john thune says he wants to know what the tsa plans to do to fix the problem and hes not getting answers. There are a lot of those types of questions that are unanswered. And i think its important for obviously for the traveling public to know the answers to these questions. Certainly important for the tsa to know the answers to these questions.

He addressed this at the press conference later that day. Take a look. Normi can only speak on behalf of myself but in this case i can speak on what have of the players. You want to feel safe. So clearly im not happy about it. He requests something be done quickly. He had a similar fan run in during practice there as well. He also brought back the moment in 2009 when a fan tried to put a hat on him before they dragged him off. There are no changes to make to security coming up. So that will be an interesting topic. Coming up on trending, weve got one toddler who left an impression on the president. And then fan catches a home run and cashed it all on camera. That is coming up. Very nice. Thank you.

Reporter in a statement from her hospital bed, she says the little ones look like fragile little dolls and that nita already has a mind of her own. Loved ones say mom and babies are doing well. But doctors warn there could potentially be a host of issues for all of them. The babies of course make it to the nicu. Nobody is sure what all the fertility hormones are going to do to the mother longterm.

You have to let them get inspired by what youre doing and then theyll want to join in. But it doesnt work if you purge their items for them. So have you kept to it in your home . For the most part.

Passionately crafted for readers. Back now at 8 38 with the real reason for the holiday. Honoring our Fallen Service members. Brandon webb out with a new book among heroes. Brandon, good to see you on memorial day. Thanks for having me. Was this is tough thing to sit down and do . You wrote a tribute to your fallen brothers. How tough was that . It was tough, but i was in the middle of another book and lost my best friend in benghazi libya, in 2012. It just hit me that i need to really write a book and honor these friends and men who are no longer here and share their stories with america. Theyre important inspirational stories. I wish we had time to honor all of them. But lets touch on a few of them. Your buddy john j. T. Tumueson. Tell me about him. He first came through when i was a course manager. Right away i picked j. T. To be the class leader. A tall guy from iowa. He was one of the best in the program. We described him as a human labrador. He was smart, loyal, and ironically his dog hawkeye in that image went around the world. Tell the story behind this picture because it is remarkable as we take a look at it. Sure. You know during the service, j. T. s dog hawkeye just got up and went and laid down next to j. T. s casket throughout the service. I think it was an image that was incredibly powerful and went around the internet virally. And i think the picture says it all. It takes your breath away to look at it. Lets move to matt axelson. Operation red wing. Later turned into the book and movie lone survivor. Matt was also a student of mine and later a friend. He just was one of those guys with nerves of steel. Would be the first to volunteer for anything. One of the most stoic people ive ever met. You know thats part of this book is these lessons ive taken and these traits from these guys and incorporated them into my life. Its what i hope people will read the book and also be inspired the same way i was. You mentioned earlier the attacks on the consulate in benghazi. Your buddy glen doherty. That must have been hard to write about. Yeah. Glen was the catalyst of the book. I put off going to a lot of the Funeral Services when i was on active duty. Glens became unavoidable. But at that point when i was working with his family after losing him, it just hit me that you know i really need to write this book and honor these guys and tell their story and share it with america. And one more guy i want to mention. Chris kyle, someone you worked with. Of course the subject of the book american sniper and the hugely successful movie. What kind of guy was chris kyle . Chris was a great guy. Even as a new guy i remember him in s. E. A. L. Team 3. He had this texas swagger about him and instantly liked by everybody. I mean chris just a larger than life character. Truly missed by many people. But his death really sent a lot of shock waves through the s. E. A. L. Community. Your book is incredible. Its called among heroes. Its something everybody should read and very appropriate for this day. You can read an excerpt on today. Com. Brandon, thanks so much. Thanks for having me. Coming up the story you wont want to miss. The teacher using his sons story to change the lives of students. But first this is today on nbc. Back now at 8 44 and todays american story with bob dotson comes from louisville kentucky where a popular teacher wraps up each school year with a lesson on the meaning of life. A class some students say theyll remember forever. So good to have you with us bob. Good morning. Happy memorial day. You as well. Students do get a lot of advice these days. But most of the things written on smoke, the message soon driftss away. But not when it comes from some place deeply personal. Reporter jeff wright is one of those teachers students never forget. More show than tell. The guy is just crazy. Hes exploding with fun. Reporter his science classes at Louisville High School in kentucky are filled with odd experiments. Like this one. Where he lied on a bed of nails and a cinder block on his chest and he lets students learn a lesson about force and energy. Good job, man. Reporter surprisingly it is a lecture without props that leaves the lasting impression. The talk is about wrights son adam. Born with a rare combination of genes that only about 450 people in the world have. 180 times a minute. About three times a second. We then found out he was completely blind. Reporter he cant speak, walk or even sit up. Wright and his wife nancy, a nurse, must watch over him around the clock. Theres not a day that goes by that you dont ask why us. We have bad days. We have good days. You focus on the good days. Reporter like the afternoon adam first played dolls with his older city abbey. I told him to grab his doll from me and he just kind of smacked it. If he can kick a doll then he can see. Reporter adam was not lost in the darkness of his mind. He could see enough to learn a bit of sign language. One day his arms formed a sentence. Whats that mean . Daddy, i love you. Reporter thats when his father realized. That hes a real person. Reporter capable of a smile lit from inside. What has adam taught . If i could mean a Little Something to you and you could go and mean a little bit of something to somebody else then at least we have a purpose. Reporter life can be unfair. Love can make it better. Adam now communicates about 150 words. Small steps that begin with i love you. What a beautiful story. It is. My goodness. I would imagine that other families with children with special needs would see this and not give up and look for those victories with their children. Bob, thank you so much. Thank you so much. Up next well head outside to show you how to put a new spin on your boring barbecue hot dogs. But first this is today on nbc. Yes. Were back with todays kitchen firing up the grill like millions of you across the country today. Im sorry im distracted. Way to kick off the unofficial start of summer. That means hot dogs. Author of the New York Times best seller sunnys kitchen here. Sunny, good to see you. Good to see you guys. These are some dressed up dogs here. Its memorial day so i figure youve got your menus set. These are ways to dress up the dogs youre already going to make today. Things we probably already have in the house. Yes. So i spent a lot of time in seattle this year seeing the seahawks play. Shout out there. And they have a thing they call the seattle dog. Ill show you how to make my version. And we have one lady from seattle. She said it was okay what im doing to this dog. So the rule for seattle dog, first things first, youve got the split kielbasa. Bring that over. How do we do that . With our hands . With the tongs not with your hands, girl. So this is a kielbasa. The key to a seattle dog is the cream cheese. They actually put cream cheese on it. But my version, i like just a little bit of spice. So im adding in some of that adobo sauce and chilies you can find in a can. You mix that together. What theyll do is they put it into a caulking gun like when youre doing work around the house. And what theyll do is put it in there and kweez it right now. I put it into a plastic bag. And you cut the tip. You want to squeeze this on . Right onto the dog, girlfriend. Some onions grilled. And then not everyone in seattle loves the mustard, but im a mustard girl. Little bit of mustard. And youve got your spicy seattle dog. Im not going to ask you to eat that. It will mess up your dress, girl. I want to taste it. Okay. Seattle . All right. Its awesome. That good, huh . Good stuff . What about this one . To me grilling is an allday sport. Im guaranteeing you someone across the land is outside getting the grill ready. This is about breakfast. We heard of cronut im going to show you the crosant bring the hot dogs over. The ones that are split. Why do you need them split . I want to be able to get them into the croissant. Whats that . Apple jalapeno chilly. A little bit of sweet, a little bit of spicy. What kind of cheese is that . A Little American cheese. God bless. Then the hot dog right here. A little bit of pepper jack. Scallions over the top. And this is something you created . Yes, i created this. Sorry, dominique ansel. Oh egg sorry. Youre too busy trash talking. I know. That goes on the inside. Wrap it up put it back on the grill so everything starts to melt over the indirect heat. Going to love that in the morning. Okay so then the very last one, ive just started living in l. A. And i notice everyone loves their things protein style which means no bread. We have chicken and apple sausages and slaw. Good stuff. Real easy for your healthy people.

Welcome to today on this memorial day monday morning. Its may 25th 2015. We honor the men and women of the Armed Services who serve our country. Many of them out on our plaza and of course those who paid the ultimate price to serve this great country. Im willie geist with tamron. Look whos joining us. Cheryl burke. Can we call you the Dancing Queen . The princess. Whos lost her voice. We were told in commercial break, cheryl lost her voice, she was up partying in new york city all night. Yes, you were. I was not. I wasnt partying. I was resting my voice. It was nick cannon. The red nose thing. He made me dance with him for 45 minutes. How do you lose your voice if youre dancing . He danced for 24 hours, i danced for 30 minutes and im complaining. But how do you lose your voice dancing . Because we had to go on a double decker bus and it was freezing. New york changes. The weather just changes in seconds. Just go with it tamron. Im investigating this. Just go with it okay . I believe friday it was in the upper 70s. So where was this cold front . A few days ago when it was really cold. Shes from l. A. What is the real story behind the voice . Honestly i think it was just being here so early last week. Promoting i can do that and trying to sing. Teaching us to salsa. Exactly. You were sick. You told me you were sick. Just blaming it on you. Did you notice how she said i wasnt at the club. Im in my 30s. There are people in their 30s what does that mean for us in our 40s . Once in awhile its okay. I knew i had a big day today, so i went to bed early. I stayed in my bed all day yesterday. What time did you go to bed yesterday . I took about eight naps yesterday. All getting ready for this . All for this moment. Thats what we do. Were 40s and we go to clubs. It comes back. Im in my 30s, im over that. You come back in your 40s. You mentioned the show. I can do that. Cheryl is one of six celebrities who star on nbcs new variety show for people who havent heard we had you on last week talking about it. Talk about it a little bit. It premieres tomorrow. Im so excited. And honestly ive done stuff that ive never done before. All six of us have done stuff that we normally arent used to doing. But now were being vulnerable. I did harlem groeb trotters which you were showing off a little bit last week. That was your moment. And then i did jabawockees. And i chose joe jonas who has zero dance experience. I have to say youre going to be shocked when you see it. So they are known for their popping and locking and theyve got the masks. It was like cheryl you can dance, this is easy. Its so much harder to untrain your body and be able to like have bad posture when im so used to standing up straight. And now i have to blend in with the group. And theyre like cheryl were giving joe more props. You looked a little too classy. You need to get down and dirty. That was your down and dirt we what you just did . Did you get the mask . I did. I got the white mask. So the show debuts tomorrow at 10 00 p. M. Are you in that clip . You dont know. Were in the masks. Which i could not breathe. You have to breathe through your mouth. I could have died being a jabbawockee. Theres a lot going on there. Medical attention for you. Cool. Well check that out. Tomorrow 10 00 on nbc. Looks like a fun show. Great story to tell you about on this memorial day. A new Jersey High School student got a huge surprise from her two military brothers. Check this out. Thats u. S. Army sergeant and specialist. Theyve been deployed since last june. Almost a year she had not seen her brothers and they surprised her. Never gets old watching those. Youve said it again and ill let you say it now. Give me an entire channel of military reunions. Yes. The whole channel, round the clock marathon. Just show those reunions from all over the country, all over the world. Youve got yourself a network thats on top. I dont know why they dont do that. I mean it just makes your heart melt. It does. You see these people and youre like my gosh they just sacrifice their whole life for us. And just to be able to be reunited with your loved ones an amazing moment. And it shows a side many people dont talk about. The families sacrifice. Those who are left at home not just wives or spouses, but sisters and brothers as in this case. Its beautiful. Its a beautiful thing. We were talking about this earlier today. You like a good selfie. You like when fans come up. Im the selfie queen. Sorry, kim. Im not selfie queen. I just like them. Kanye will take that from you. Celebrity selfies, we love going out on the plaza. However, theres a right way and a wrong way to ask for a selfie. Lets present evidence. A fan found out he was at center court at the french open and then tried to take a selfie with roger federer. Security intervened escorting this fan away. Roger clearly not happy with it. He brought up the 2009 french open when a fan tried to put a hat on him before that man was dragged off. The tournament director confirmed that sufficient security is in place and they have no plans of changing security. So thats a bad idea. Yeah. I dont think its that bad. When a guy runs on the court . You dont know what his intentions are. Was he having a bad game . No. The match was over. And you dont know what a fans intentions are when they run up on the court. And his point was this is my job. And there have been incidents in the past very famous incidents where people have been injured. So in that environment, its probably not the safest thing. Its like when people run out on the Basketball Court. Theres lebron james and somebody runs out on the court. You dont know. You could see federer look around like wheres security. Theres a right way and wrong way to do it. Where was the security . They said they were around but apparently they didnt get there fast enough. So thats our example of whatnot to do. But heres how you take a selfie. Our friend dwayne johnson, the rock set a Guinness World record for taking the most selfies in three minutes. How many . He took 105 selfies at the london premiere of his film san andreas andreas. I love how he keeps it moving. I like that theres a Guinness Record for selfies in three minutes. Very specific. Everyones shoulder has to be in the photo. To get in the book. Everyones head and neck has to be in. Okay wheres my wheres the rule book for selfies . We need to take an official guinness selfie. The rock has long arms so that helps. Willies got long arms. But it has to be something that gets us in the record books. Like 106 selfies. Here we go. Ready . Real quick. Well be right with you. Hold please. I got it i got it. I got it. You didnt get it in. You messed it up. Tamron. Whats that . Thats christine. Take it again. Weve got no. Take it again. How often do we get cheryl on . And she smells great. Okay. Oh, my gosh. Fail. Lets play a game. You know our Dancing Queen cheryl burke. Were going to play a game here. Well watch short dance scenes from famous films. First in to guess the movie. Is it a dancing film . Dont worry about it. Shes a guest, willie. Our first. Dirty dancing. I won it. Tamron was in. You slapped him first but i yelled it first. Okay. We got it. Lets go. Next clip. Roll it. Flash dance. I heard flash dance on the left first. Listen, dude. As a dancer how incredible was the dancing in that . Thats incredible. I couldnt do that. Really . The great cheryl burke couldnt do that . How many times have you won dancing with the stars . Like 20 years ago. How many did you win . Just two. But flash dance is a whole other type of dance. You know . Okay. By the way, this is the deciding clip. Its 11. Grease. Cheryl burke is our champion. Lets review. I sate footloose. Its grease. Cheryl burke is our champion. I have never even seen grease before. Is that crazy . How have you not seen grease . I am psychic. But can you jabbawockee . I dont believe you. Youll have to tune in. She snatches your title. I actually just broke my hand. You took Kim Kardashians selfie crown, my not dancing crown. I like your dress better than mine. Now heres dylan with the weather. All right. Tuck borrow my splint if you need it. But we are looking at a lot of rain through parts of texas and oklahoma. Over the past several weeks, may 2015 we have seen just record amounts of rainfall. The rainiest mays on record in Oklahoma City shreveport with 8 inches. Normally for the entire month of may its 2 to 4 inches. Thats why were seeing tons of river flooding and dangerous flash flooding. Severe thunderstorm watch box in texas. Not only dangerous lightning but the flash flooding as a possibility. Because within some of these storms we are going to see torrential downpours. Thats an area to focus on again today. Especially this afternoon and evening as more areas redevelop. We could see golf ball sized hail. Isolated tornadoes. But again, its really the flooding thats our big e concern. So those will fire up later on today. Well get a break through the night. Then finally well see the storms push a little more into the midwest good morning. Im meteorologist bill henley. Your memorial day forecast is looking sunny and warm. Mostly sunny skies. And a bit breezy, too. The winds will be picking up this afternoon along with the temperature. 84 to 87. Winds of 20 miles an hour with higher gusts. Tomorrow its the temperature that will go higher. You will notice the humidity is a bit higher, too. A breezy day. 90 degrees for tuesday. Again on wednesday. A chance of storms for wednesday, thursday, friday and through the weekend.

People say im from kansas im from iowa and my family back home doesnt know what i do. I tell them to watch the show. And they say im lloyd. So you know its flattering. How good was it to be back with the gang . We were talking during the commercial break. There were so many rumors about whether the movie would be a reality and here we are. But it took some negotiating. I wont make you name names. No, we felt that way too. I literally thought this movie would never get made. But it was so fun to get back together with everyone. It felt like putting on comfortable shoes that you forgot were in your closet. You got the band back together. This is your first scene on entourage 2005. Take a look. Im lloyd, ari new assistant.

Taking a look at the headlines. A new Study Reveals living at high altitudes may be a risk factor for sudden infant death syndrome. Researchers from university of california found the rate of sids was twice as high among babies living at an altitude higher. Its important to know the sids rate is still very low, just 0. 8 deaths per 1,000 births. The updates you post on facebook may reveal more than you realize about your personality. British researchers found that people who post about their diets, exercise routines and achievements tend to be narcissists who are seeking attention and validation. Those who post about their love lives might have low selfesteem. Theyre trying to convince themselves and others that things are going well. And conscientious people rarely post on facebook but when they do its about their children. Wine lovers today is National Wine day. Its an unofficial holiday that celebrates the fruit of the vine. Some wine bars and wine shops will offer discounts on their wines to celebrate the big day. Of course hoda and kathie lee probably dont need another reason to pour a glass. Me either. An opening for tomorrowland, it took in an estimated 32 million for the first three days of the holiday weekend. That number is expected to climb to about 41 million after today. But experted predicted it would take in 50 million. A roar could be heard echoing through washington, d. C. Sunday. The Rolling Thunder ride to freedom brought thousands of motorcyclists to the district of columbia. The annual ride honored military veterans and soldiers missing in action. With flags proudly waving supporters lined the streets to cheer riders on. All right. Lets toss it over to dylan now. A perfect part of the important holiday weekend. We have perfect weather moving in especially for the eastern seaboard where that is basically the best weather across the country. Were looking at 80s even a couple of spotty thunderstorms. But its really southern texas where were looking at our strongest storms today. The threat of an isolated storm is there. But its the addition of any more rain leading to flash flooding later on today. Tomorrow we will start to see that push further into the east. We will see more in the midwest and tennessee valley. Slight risks through parts of texas tomorrow but those will not be as widespread. By tuesday well get a good morning. Im meteorologist bill henley. Your memorial day forecast is looking sunny and warm. Mostly sunny skies. And a bit breezy, too. The winds will be picking up this afternoon along with the temperature. 84 to 87. Winds of 20 miles an hour with higher gusts. Tomorrow its the temperature that will go higher. You will notice the humidity is a bit higher, too. A breezy day. 90 degrees for tuesday. Again an wednesday. A chance of storms for wednesday, thursday, friday and through the weekend. Have a great day. And thats your latest forecast. Guys . Thank you. Many of you may be watching us because youre on vacation now as the weekend marks the unofficial start of summer. Its also the time of the year when most luggage gets lost. And although most bags get claimed, there are some that never get reunited with their owners. Janet shamlian is here with where they end up and surprising items inside. This is a hidden gem in alabama. There are several times im aching to go back. You are never going to believe what people take on an airplane and then forget to take off. Its all tucked away in rural alabama including the thousands of ipads and cell phones left in those seatback pockets. Want a deal . This is the place. Reporter a fiberglass mold of a shark. An old accordion, and various tribal necklaces. Can you believe it was all left on a plane . Welcome to the last stop for lost luggage. Clothing jewelry, and the electronics. Brand new ipads, digital cameras, and every model of cell phone. Its always interesting to see what they have here. Reporter all of it once belonged to someone who became permanently separated from their luggage. Its huge honestly. I didnt think there would be this much lost. Reporter the Unclaimed Baggage center in alabama buys bags from the airlines as well as train and bus companies. Then it all ends up for sale here at the deepest of discounts. Where do you live . Nashville, tennessee. Reporter how often do you come here . Once a month. Reporter there are wedding dresses and wedding rings. 6,000 new items a day. When they say they sell just about everything that could be found in a lost bag, they mean it. With many items brand new, some shoppers dont have room for everything theyve scooped up. In which case even the luggage itself is for sale. And our team didnt have to buy any luggage, but im going to say that we came back with our suitcases a little bit fuller. My producer came home with a new ipad. Thats awesome. And at a bargain price. Looks like the baggage carousel is brings us lost luggage as well. Here to help us go through it ambassador for the laos luggage unit. Good morning. We have things to slide down. Im nervous. Lets do it. So what are these . These bags have come through Unclaimed Baggage center. We do a daily experience where we go through bags. Make sure theres nothing harmful, embarrassing and dangerous. So we can open them up and see whats going on. This is what you do at the center. This is what we do every day. We have people who go through the bags every day. All of those good things. Okay. Wait. I think this is you here. What do we have in here . A map. New york tour guide. I think i got one of these yesterday. What do you do with the stuff . You wash it . We do. Theyve been sitting in a suitcase at least 90 days. We make sure theyre laundered. We make sure theyre good enough to sell. What we dont sell we donate to a large number of organizations. Deodorant. Used deodorant, well trash that one. Boxers. This is good stuff. Do people ever come to Unclaimed Baggage for things they lost on planes . They do come in and look for those things.

We decided to get advice for handling the awkward situations that can pop up from time to time from the founder of what manners most. Com thomas farley. There you are over there in the other yard. Hello. Hello, mr. Manners. Our first question for you, thomas, from kimberly in cedar rapids my husband and i take great pride in keeping our lawn and landscaping mowed five times and our neighbor hasnt mowed once. Ive written her several years asking her to treat the creeping charlie from her yard to mine. How do we get the neighbor to mow her yard every now and then . Better a creeping charlie than a creepy charlie for starters, right . You dont want the creepy neighbor. Right. Everybody will have his or her own standard when it comes to lawn height. If its excessive it can be a Health Hazard. I would check with the town, for example, no higher than 12 inches for the grass. Other places no mar than 8. If the town says nothing let the town deal with it. The town gets to be the bad guy. They will know you called though, arent they . They know the neighbor who did it. Town inspectors that come by. She has history here. Let the town play the part because otherwise its going to cause future conflict. I highly recommend you do plant arbore viti and dont look at her yard. A little ledge. Our next question from elizabeth, two neighbors that allow their dogs to use our front lawn to do the business. We asked both neighbors to clean up the mess and we have small children. Kids at play keep poop away. This has been going on for years and we are ready to start slinging the poop. Help. Dont start slinging. I wouldnt condone that. I like that sign. Thats adorable. Theyve tried to do the right thing. Theyre using humor to defuse a bad situation. Unfortunately its not using. They need to step it up. One last conversation with them and say this is a Health Hazard dangerous for our children if you cant take care of it we need to approach the town. Okay. Good. So nice about it all. Jackie from new york next. I have neighbors that are an older couple and they are only here every other month. Their son who is in his 30s are staying at their apartment while his is being renovated, constantly smoking something that emits a strong odor. Sounds like weed. Marijuana. And the small is wafting out of the apartment into the hallway. What do you do . I would approach the son first and say, youre probably not aware of this but the ventilation in this building is very bad. Like that. Do it that way. If he doesnt take the hint i would go to the parents and if the parents dont want to do anything speaks to the management. Okay. Speaks to the management. Not against the law anymore in many places. Going to call the cops not any more. Quality of life down the toilet. The knives are coming out. Were going to sharpen our skills with mystery ingredients coming up after this. Oh, my gosh.
