police officers. >> one officer returned fire, killing the suspect. nobody else was hurt during the incident and the children were reunited with their mother. >> one man is dead and another is injured following a shooting in pleasant hill. few details are available, but we're told it happened just before noon on twin bridge circle near long brook way. this is just a few blocks from sun valley shopping center. witnesses reported hearing several gunshots and then seeing the two victims lying on the ground. no arrests have been made, but police say they are looking for one suspect. police have not released the victims names, but say the man who died was 67 years old. >> an early morning high speed chase from el cerrito toward the bay bridge toll plaza turned deadly after the suspect made a u-turn right into oncoming traffic and then crashed into two vehicles. one of those drivers was killed. abc seven news reporter leslie brinkley has the latest. >> 4:20 a.m. the burglar alarm went off at the tobacco outlet on san pablo avenue in el cerrito as a white pickup truck

crashed into the storefront. the owner, named omar, said it's the sixth time he's been robbed. >> car ramming in you know, guys jumping out and just ransacking, you know, just they're acting like they're acting on a game show, just grabbing what they could and running out. >> el cerrito police caught up with the suspect vehicle near the tobacco store, pursued them onto westbound 80 towards the toll plaza. >> you know, suspect vehicle began to make a u-turn movement and decided that the risk to the public really outweighed the benefits to apprehending the suspects and terminated his pursuit. at that point, we got news from chp that the vehicle we had been chasing ended up being involved in a fatal accident. >> the two suspects in the white truck crashed head on into a bmw and a white van. the driver of the bmw died. the other driver was critically injured as were the two suspects. >> around 4:31 a.m. of a three vehicle crash involving a wrong-way driver uh. this was

westbound 580 to uh- westbound i-80, so our units responded and, lanes were blocked. >> traffic onto the bay bridge for the rush hour commute was brutal. >> i'm just really terrible that this is how it ended up. and all for, you know, a burglary at a at a cigaret store. >> we can get mad at that. the police officers for doing their job. you know, i think we should get mad at at the criminals for putting the police officers and normal citizens in this situation. >> omar says it will cost him $50,000 to reopen as the broken glass was swept away. other business owners are worried. >> we have two cannabis dispensaries. they've both been hit similar to this with the same m.o. they back a vehicle up, go through the wall or the front door, in and out in a matter of minutes. >> you know, this is all material stuff that can be replaced. this is nothing. you know? a life is gone. you can't bring that back in el cerrito,

i'm leslie brinkley, abc seven news. >> we're learning more about the horrible crash that killed a couple and their toddler at a bus stop in san francisco. abc seven news reporter suzanne phan has been following the story and joins us live or with the latest. >> these kinds of events are traumatic for all of us at the very beginning of today's sfmta meeting, chairperson amanda egan talks about the tragedy that happened by muni's west portal station over the weekend. i'm imagining that many people are feeling anger, rage, a sense of powerlessness, hopelessness. i know that i've cycled through these feelings myself over the past 72 hours. it shouldn't happen in our city or anywhere, and our hearts are with the family. hundreds of people turned out for an emotional vigil monday at yulo street and lenox way to honor the family. >> it was really powerful. >> today we received official word on the identity of the husband and wife and son killed. they were diego cardoso de oliveira, aged 40, matilda ramos

pinto, aged 38, and one year old joaquin pinto de oliveira, an infant, was also critically hurt and is still in the hospital. police say the couple and their two children were waiting at the bus stop when a mercedes suv plowed into them. the 78 year old female driver is in police custody. she was arrested on suspicion of vehicular manslaughter and reckless driving, but she's not yet been formally charged. on tuesday, strangers came out to show their support for the lives lost. some came bearing flowers or stuffed animal. it could be anyone i've waited at that bus stop. nancy buchan says she volunteers with the pedestrian advocate group walk sf. >> we've seen so many people like 30 a year get killed by automobiles. >> many people are still struggling to make sense of what happened. >> it's just super heartbreaking because i'm, you know, always at west portal. it's just such a horrible tragedy that i feel in some ways could have definitely been prevented. >> today, the mayor shared her sentiments about the tragic

incident on abc seven's getting answers. >> this is really hit, people to the core. >> she also talked about the changes san francisco needs to make. >> it means it's more important now more than ever, to make sure that we, as a city are being as aggressive as we can to implement the kind of infrastructure changes on our streets that make it safer to, to bike, to walk and to drive. >> in san francisco, suzanne phan abc seven news. >> right now, the san francisco municipal transportation agency is meeting to discuss future projects, including the possibility of installing cameras to catch speeding drivers and improve safety. overall, the board is going through its budget and getting public feedback as well. this has been going on now for nearly three hours, and we're not expecting them to take any action today. sfmta has identified more than 30 locations where speed cameras could be installed. >> in addition to those speed

cameras. this week, san francisco will begin installing the first of 400 automated license plate readers in a new effort to fight crime. i spoke with mayor london breed about the program and what you can expect. >> it's going to be at 100 locations around san francisco, so they'll be license plate readers that will help us combat crime in a lot of different ways. some of the challenges around speeding, car break ins, car theft, uh, sideshows, all of those things, these automated license plate readers will be very critical in helping us to track people as they move around the city, especially as it relates to crime. we expect all those cameras to be up, sometime by the month of april, and they'll be all over the city and they'll be used for different things, to be clear. so, for example, if there's a car that's stolen, it'll give us the ability to read corvette, to pull it up and to look at all the locations, look at all the license plates, and really identify and see a path of travel, potentially, as to where

that car might have gone and the tools to look for it. so it's really about maximizing our use of technology to help combat crime in san francisco. >> the money for the license plate readers comes from a $17 million grant from the state to help fight crime. >> all right, turning now to the weather. and, you know, it's been just a beautiful few days 70 and sunny, spectacular. and now spencer is back. >> the way you said that, it's not his fault. >> he's the messenger, that things are going to change. >> so now we go from sunny and spectacular to spencer. >> it's the message i have a problem with. >> okay, well, i'll try to keep a sunny disposition even when the weather changes. here's a look at what spring is arriving this evening. okay, it's the vernal equinox, so equal parts uh- daylight in the daylight and darkness and equal daylight in the northern and southern hemisphere. so the equinox occurs at 8:06 p.m. pacific daylight time. that's this evening. sun's most direct rays

are aimed at the equinox at the equator, rather. and this is how it looks astronomically. this is how it lines up the vernal equinox tonight. and once again, sun's rays directly over the equator. 8:06 p.m. spring officially begins. although it feels very spring like already because we've had such a lovely mild day. and speaking of spring, of course we, along with the great weather, we've got an increase in certain pollens right now, is tree pollen. that's a fairly high grass. weeds mold low at the moment, but tree pollen is high around the bay area. and just to give you a little bit of a look ahead before i get to the forecast later tonight with spring arriving, we have wonderful weather going into the evening hours, but next two days it will also remain sunny and mainly mild. but when the weekend arrives, well, the pattern changes. wet. much cooler. i'll give you all those details a little bit later, larry. >> thank you. spencer a congressional committee announced today it will investigate allegations of anti-semitism at uc berkeley. the probe by the house committee

on education and the workforce comes in response to several recent incidents. this includes last month's abrupt cancellation of a speech by an israeli lawyer when pro-palestinian students broke down the door at zellerbach playhouse. the university condemned the incident. uc berkeley issued a statement today saying, quote, uc berkeley has an unwavering commitment to ensuring every student feels safe and welcome at all times. >> a health alert is going out to medical professionals, warning of an increase in measles cases here in the us and abroad. the cdc confirms at least 58 cases across 17 states. that's equal to the total number of all of last year. officials say 93% of the cases are linked to international travel, mostly in children who did not have an mmr vaccine. measles is highly contagious. one infected person can infect 90% of the unvaccinated people with whom they come into contact. >> coming up on abc seven news

at four, the race for a south bay congressional seat gets even closer. just a few votes now separating the candidates saved by surf. the mission to help some heroes in need. and this is, as spencer mentioned, the first day of spring. how to get

but we're just getting started. everything going well? oh yeah. let's take a look at this knee. because it's the work behind the scenes, that truly matters. [ physical therapy staff discusses results ] for your mind. for your body. and for the community. -team! for all that is me, for all that is you. kaiser permanente.

and liccardo leads the pack with 21% of the vote. he has secured a place in the november election because the top two move on right. >> the nail-biter now is to determine his rival, and right now, 12 votes for a dozen. that's it puts santa clara county supervisor joe simitian over state assemblyman evan low. >> abc7 news reporter zach fuentes is live in the south bay with the latest on district 16. boys. zach. every vote counts. >> every vote counts. and it's still in a state of flux. san mateo and santa clara county have until april 4th to finish final election results. then the secretary of state will certify the results april 12th. right now, both counties are still processing ballots. and that's something that could obviously have an effect on the fate of this race until april. the race to replace retiring congresswoman anna eshoo has become one of the most critical elections in the bay area. we see a lot of the fears, criticisms and questions around

artificial intelligence. >> we've seen a lot of debates and discussions about moderating big tech in general and tiktok in particular. and i think this seat is going to be hugely influential in representing the views of big tech in congress. so i think this is a very important election at a very important time for the industry. >> but who will be in the november general election is still unknown. candidate and former san jose mayor sam liccardo is in first place by a long shot. but who is opponent will be is unclear. santa clara county supervisor joe simitian and state assembly member evan lowe have been back and forth in the second place spot, at one point separated by as few as 12 votes. but votes are still being processed. >> it takes time to count, and it's a it's a long process. >> the congressional district falls within both san mateo and santa clara counties this week. both counties still had ballots to process. that includes challenge ballots. those were signatures still need to be verified. >> they have time 28 days after election day to clear their ballots. and so we send them notification. >> the registrar's office has to wait until the end of those 28

days to give voters the opportunity to fix their ballots, a very close race and i think that's a prime example of why it's so important for people to vote. we reached out to simitian tuesday. he sent us a statement saying, sometimes it takes a while for democracy to work. this is one of those times that means counting and verifying all of the votes, every single one of them. we also reached out to lowe tuesday and did not hear back. last week, he sent a statement that said in part to me, no matter the ultimate outcome, the closeness of this race shows that your vote truly matters. your vote can have a real impact on who represents your community. both candidates will have the opportunity to ask for a recount. they would have to pay for it if it goes in their favor, they would get that money back. >> i could absolutely see a recount with an election that's this close, especially if either of these campaigns, have the money to do it, which it looks like they do. >> so in the last report yesterday, san mateo county had 20 unprocessed ballots. today, santa clara county had 1400. but

together, both of those counties still have 1700 challenged ballots that voters still have a chance to fix. so this race really could come down to those ballots right now. live in san jose. zach fuentes, abc seven news. >> well, we've got a ways to go then. thank you. zach gas prices up for the first time since last year. prices are now higher on a year over year basis. and experts are predicting they will continue to rise in the coming weeks. the national average is up nearly $0.10 from a week ago at $3.49 a gallon. california state average is $4.91 a gallon. in san francisco, you will pay more $5.07 for a gallon of gas. almost $2 more than the national average. >> a new program in san francisco could help with those high gas prices. the city of san francisco is launching an electric vehicle curbside charging pilot program. ev charging stations will be installed in several areas across the city. the pilot project is part of the city's effort to expand san francisco's

ev charging infrastructure. officials say the charging stations will also create positive impact on the city's economic and environmental value. >> it's about making meaningful progress toward our climate and environmental objectives, while also improving the life of our residents. and as i said, creating good, high quality union jobs. >> san francisco needs 5000 chargers by 2030 to meet the growing demand of electric cars. >> this week marks five years since southwest started flying to hawaii from oakland. hula dancers, music and leis were at the airport to help celebrate the occasion. nearly 1.3 million passengers have flown that route since it launched. the airline offers six daily departures from oakland to the hawaiian islands. destinations including honolulu, lihue and kona. southwest has 400 flights on the schedule between oakland and the hawaiian islands for spring break through april 15th. >> i mean, we haven't needed to be there because it's been so

nice here. yes, but but but we have a few days and i want to make sure i do the intro properly this time. >> spencer is here to tell us about the next few spectacular days before the inevitable. >> well, i appreciate that, larry. i love the upgrade. here's a look at what's happening with our weather. as you know, it's just lovely and springlike and it will remain that way for a couple more days. as you can see on the satellite radar composite image, high pressure is the controlling factor in our weather right now. and it's producing not only mainly clear skies and mild temperature ranges, but it's pretty breezy out there right now, especially near the coast where we have 21 to 24 mile per hour breezes and it's just a few degrees cooler in most locations than at this time yesterday, about 1 to 3 degrees. so that's not a significant change. here's a look at our forecast headlines tonight. spring arrives as we mentioned earlier at 8:06 p.m. sharp. then the next two days, wednesday and thursday, mainly a sunny days and mild conditions, but things start to take a rather significant change at the end of the week. so friday,

going into the weekend a wet pattern develops is going to be much cooler. we'll worry about that later. let's enjoy what we have right now under mainly blue skies 58 degrees here in san francisco we have low to mid 60s at oakland and hayward, 71 right now in san jose, 60 in san mateo, 55 at half moon bay. camera is bouncing in the breeze in emeryville, looking toward the golden gate. other temperature readings at this hour. we've got 66 up at santa rosa. petaluma. pretty cool at only 5964 napa 71 apiece at fairfield and concord, 75 at livermore. that is spring like weather overnight. we'll see a little bit of an increase in clouds and we'll see some clearing as well. overnight, low temperatures, mainly in the mid to upper 40s. so a relative a pleasantly cool overnight i should say. tomorrow's highs 60 in san francisco mid 60s around the bay shoreline, maybe a couple of upper 60s inland areas, especially inland east bay and south bay will see low 70s tomorrow, but there is rain on the way and cooler weather. as i mentioned, here's our forecast animation starting at midnight thursday or 12 a.m. friday, this frontal system will swing through on friday,

bringing us initially light rain, but it will become a little steadier, a little heavier going into the evening and nighttime hours. then on saturday, mainly showers and light rain and that will probably continue into sunday. so the weekend is going to be cooler and wetter, uh- quite a bit than the current conditions, our current pattern that we have. and then early next week perhaps we'll see that system dissipate and we'll start to get back to some weather, some drier and sunnier weather. excuse me, the high temperature range is going to reflect the change in pattern. starting on friday. notice how much sharply cooler it's going to be than the current pattern going into saturday. high temperatures won't even reach 60 degrees across the bay area, and that pretty much will be the pattern on sunday as well. so here's the accuweather seven day forecast a two lovely dry, mild spring like days tomorrow and thursday. rain arrives friday level one system and we're going to keep it at level one saturday and sunday. even though the system may not be very strong or impactful at all. but there will be periods of wet weather, so we'll keep it

that way through the weekend with a slight chance on sunday, on monday morning, and then turning sunnier and milder by next tuesday. >> then you'll be announcing him differently. >> yes, well, the weekend i don't, you know, the weekend. i can't promise it. >> might i expect a different uh- introduction each day. >> okay. based on conditions, i think that's fair. exactly. spencer uh- the statue of san francisco giants hall of famer willie mccovey is right back where it belongs. >> crews have reinstalled the statue that bears his name across the cove, not far from the site where it was originally installed back in 2003. you're wondering why did they move in the first place? well crews had to remove the statue in 2020 to keep it safe during construction of that gargantuan mission rock project just adjacent to the stadium. the statue will be the centerpiece of a new park to be constructed at the site. >> healing heroes one wave at a time. the group helping veterans through surfing and picture perfect how veterans are being honored through photography

>> many military veterans have a hard time finding peace after serving, but these waves are bringing them to exactly where they want to be. >> the ocean. you have to be present, completely mindful. i'm here. i'm not back in the middle east. i'm not. i'm not in the past. i'm in the present. >> healing heroes, one wave at a time. the mission of operation surf, the week long program, has brought vets to the santa cruz coast for more than a decade. it builds a supportive community through the healing powers of the ocean. >> i definitely felt like i was unique, the problems that i had, i was the only one experiencing uh- and operation surf allowed me to connect with other combat veterans and people that had gone through exactly the same things that i have. >> operation surf was founded by someone familiar with mental health struggles. van carozza suffered from addiction. surfing helped save his life and created a way for him to find the positives he now helps veterans do the same. >> going through my journey of

recovery, i realized how powerful the ocean was to me and i was recognizing a lot of their their mindsets and a lot of their challenges was similar to mine. even though i'd never been in the military, everything that we try to do is something that has helped me. the ocean truly is a metaphor for life. >> it's ever present and ever changing. it could be calm or sometimes stormy. all aspects of life that describe veterans as well. and it's through this ocean and these waves that their hope is restored. where do you think you would be without this program? >> honestly, i don't know. i'd probably be metaphorically somewhere lost at sea. each wave brings them a little bit closer and closer, back to their family, back to their community. with the love and support. and there's a lot of connecting moments here. we all have our highs and our lows, the high tides, the low tides. but when you rise and fall together, you're not alone. >> united they stand with nothing but support. should they fall in santa cruz. dustin dawsey, abc seven news today,

causing a lot of problems, from bugs to bears to more pain for allergy sufferers. >> abc news reporter lionel

moise has the details from the deep south to the upper midwest. >> it feels like spring really sprung weeks ago. this winter was the warmest on record for the lower 48 states. average temperatures in wisconsin were nearly ten degrees above normal. the deep red areas on this map show where plants sprouted their leaves up to three weeks earlier than normal. the cherry blossoms in washington have already hit peak bloom two weeks earlier than normal. while most of us welcome the sun and the flowers in early spring comes with consequences. >> we've had a really warm winter and spring and that's really kicking off our pollen season into a frenzy quite early, nearly every region of the country could now see a more intense allergy season earlier and longer. pollen seasons are something we need to prepare for. this is something that climate change is going to keep driving in coming years. >> from pollen in the air to smoke this year, texas has already seen its largest wildfire on record. officials as far north as minnesota are already warning of a high risk

for fires. part of the problem the lack of snow adding to drought and water supply concerns in parts of the country. maple sirup producers also forced to make changes, tapping trees as early as january, the earlier spring also impacting wildlife. >> it is certainly strange. in the beginning of february to see so many bears out. >> bears have been waking up from their hibernation earlier. people have already been warned to secure their trash and bird feeders. experts say late winter and spring are the times of year, seeing the most dramatic climate change. el nino is also a factor this year. lionel moise abc news new york and abc seven news contributor doctor leo patel is here once. >> i haven't seen you in months. >> it is good to be here, larry. happy spring minus the allergies . >> yes. so it seems appropriate to have two allergy sufferers discussing how to cure allergies. >> we're not method acting. >> no, no, this is for real. what do we do? >> what do we do? is you got to think about the fact that pollen

is everywhere, especially right now. our allergy seasons are getting longer and worse. i like to think about this in different buckets, if you will. the first one, prevention. look up those pollen counts. you can go online, look to see what it looks like that's going to differ based on time of day, even weather. also, keep your windows shut and look at getting a good hepa filter hvac system. the last thing i want to talk about, which we hinted about, i got a prop here, is when you come home, we can carry allergies on our bodies. you want to change your clothes, wash your hair, don't track that in with you. keep your house clean and also sinus irrigation. my trusty neti pot. this thing is a gem. yes, i just kissed it. but keeping all the allergies even out of your nose will help prevent some of those symptoms that can build up at night and mess with your sleep. >> okay, so there's a couple things about the neti pot. first of all, it can be a little bit messy. that's one thing. all right. the other thing is that there's a if you go online and you read about this, there's a minute, minute chance that something terrible could happen. you want to explain that. >> yeah. it's really important. you know, so the whole concept

of using a neti pot is basically saline irrigation. when you get water up there, you want to make sure you're using distilled water. or if you don't have that, you're boiling water and then obviously letting it cool down, you can get a solution. you do not want to accidentally introduce any bacteria or any foreign bugs anywhere. it doesn't belong when you're doing irrigation. yeah, and basically what we're talking is, i mean, do you mind if i touch your mouth? >> please do. basically you're going to put your the pot in one nostril and then the water because it's all connected uh- it comes out the other side, then you do the other side. and theoretically you get all of the pollen out of your sinuses. >> i thought about demonstrating that life that is absolutely what you do is you're getting it out. but some people forget that you can get pollen out of your nose, but also washing hair. and don't forget about your furry friends who track allergens in with them. then they're jumping all over your house and spreading it right. >> i fear that this shot is going to be wait. wow it's coming out of guy gives me defective stuff to work with your own germs to yourself. all right, a little bit of the.

that's not water. >> it's some of the actual leftover saline solution that you can use. so don't worry, it's not water. it's. this is so good, you can't even script that well. >> it's so great seeing you. like, hopefully in another year or two, you know, maybe next time i'll come and we won't have such a visually appealing yet messy. >> no, it's obviously a dangerous prop for me to be. by the way, allergies are going to keep getting, you know, with climate change worse or where are we with that? >> you know, at least one study has shown us that since 1990, our allergy season is longer by about three weeks, 20% more pollen in the air. because if you think about it, with warmer temperatures, plants have more time to bloom and throw pollens into the air. and so right now in northern california, we're seeing the biggest effects from usually tree and grass pollen. so trees you're thinking birch, cedar, mulberry, juniper, other trees i don't know the names of. but according to the american academy of allergy, asthma and immunology, it's important that people pay attention to this. you also realize that you have

over the counter medication options as well. and if you get to a point where allergies are absolutely wrecking your quality of life and your sleep. talk to a professional. you want to go and try to see a board certified allergist, because you may need further medications or testing. >> so are you talking about the tests where they put a bunch of things on your back and whatever it reacts to, that's what you're allergic to. >> and that was a very eloquent description of how it is. but yes, a specific allergen test is one thing that a board certified allergist can do. you can get specific therapy towards that, but also any health care professional can help guide you in what medications you may need over the counter, including those eyedrops, antihistamines, some of the nasal sprays. and don't forget that kids can also get terrible allergies. that's going to start messing with their sleep. their concentration on behavioral issues drives mom and dad insane. all of the things. >> all right, so he mocked my question and he gave me a defective neti pot. >> it was all out of love. >> and i still love you. >> all out of love. >> doctor, how many allergens did you get on me with that hug?

>> well, here, here, use the pot. kristen. >> yeah, let's not use the pot on tv live. thank you, doctor patel. thank you. larry. all right. nearly three dozen bay area nonprofits are among the hundreds about to receive major donations from philanthropist mackenzie scott. the billionaires organization yield giving announced the names of 360 small nonprofits that will share $640 million in gifts each responded to the open call for applications among the local nonprofits receiving gifts of 1 million or $2 million are la cocina, youth alive and urban peace movement, scott shot a san francisco native, began giving away billions in 2019 following her divorce from jeff bezos. she and bezos founded amazon in 1993. >> up next, those lottery jackpots just keep growing. is it still fun and dynamic pricing? it's fun if you win. yes dynamic pricing could soon

to the lottery. just keep growing and growing. abc news reporter melissa ardon has a look ahead to tonight's drawing for the mega millions jackpot, growing from $875 million this morning to nearly $900 million for tonight's drawing. >> after no tickets have matched all six numbers since early

december. >> if you don't play you're not going to have a chance. so you got to play this is the sixth time the mega million jackpot has surged this high. >> the odds of winning one in nearly 303 million. and it's not just the mega millions topping charts. the powerball jackpot also rising wednesday's jackpot, now valued at nearly $690 million. and ticket buyers say they are hopeful you don't want to miss out on half $1 million or whatever it is. the lucky mega millions winner will have the option to take a one time lump sum of their winnings, or take distributions of the cash in 29 annual payments. >> all right. so here's the question. now would you rather have smaller jackpots and an easier chance to win and more winners or the gigantic jackpots and the winners. you know, every few months they win hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars. so think about that. i still remember, spencer. you never play the lottery. and i do remember you telling me years ago, why would i take a pay cut right?

>> that's not your agent. no, no, i you know, i like the idea of slightly smaller jackpots and more chances for people to win. now, i don't mean a little teeny tiny jackpots. like, you were saying something earlier about playing the nickel slots in the casino. not that small, but you know, sizable jackpots, but lower than the ones we have now. and more more winners. >> so carina, like 5 to 10 million. >> yeah, that's fine for me. yeah no that's good. i would be happy if i get like a free lunch or something, you know, but yeah, i'm with the smaller jackpots. more winners. okay idea. >> yeah. all right. so they just have to lower the numbers from 0 to 30, you know, or match only five numbers. and maybe that'll happen. all right, surge pricing may no longer apply only to ride sharing apps. it could also impact your next meal. even after wendy's got blasted for proposing dynamic pricing, experts say other fast food chains may follow dynamic pricing bases. the cost of menu items on supply and demand. experts predict fine dining

restaurants could experiment with higher prices on more popular nights like fridays and saturdays, and that grocery stores could test electronic shelf labels that would allow merchants to easily tweak prices in real time. i mean, i get it for restaurants, but grocery stores? imagine you buy this bell pepper on mondays. that's cheaper than if you bought the same bell pepper on a saturday. >> i want to know who are the experts predicting these things, because it runs counter to everything that i would expect would happen. i mean, i'm going into the drive through for the hamburger. it's $4. no, it's $8. no. yeah you should have gotten here a minute earlier, spencer. >> you know, it does sort of make sense, i guess, from a business point of view for food service and for restaurants and fast food. at the same time, though, you don't want to see consumers being fleeced, but, yeah, the, the grocery store thing that seems a little, a little far with taco tuesday, all the taco items end up, you know, increasing, you know, doubling in price. >> but, you know, hotels do it.

airlines do it around the holidays. but i don't think it should apply to food. i get it, it's a business. they're trying to make money. but yeah, you know, when it comes to food, i think we should go the opposite way. i want more happy hours. i want more discounted groceries. yeah. and, you know, cheaper fast food. why not? to tell you the truth, though, it would work on me. >> like if you told me the fish was half the price of the chicken, i'd take the fish. >> yeah. all right. yeah. >> now we know, there's a new james bond in town. marvel star aaron taylor-johnson is expected to take over the reins from long time bond actor daniel craig. the newest film will start shooting later this year. the 30 year old actor appeared in avengers age of ultron. he was the brother of elizabeth olsen's character, who was known as the scarlet witch. he also appeared in tenet and bullet train, so take a look. i don't know, you know, i'm all i wanted was for idris elba to be james bond.

it's it it's just so simple. why why we couldn't have that? i don't know, he'd be good. >> he'd be so good. >> he's the man. yeah, yeah, he is like he he would just walk in with swagger. yeah i mean, this guy could be okay. i'm sure he's fine. but you know, what do we think about the long hair and the james bond? >> i know james bond to me seems so clean cut. right it's. >> i'm fine with the hair, okay. but the overall i mean, again, i haven't seen a lot of his work, but i'm with larry. i'm like, well, for those of us who remember and love sean connery, i could do way do do without the long hair. >> i mean, sean connery was james bond. >> there you go, but idris elba. >> yeah, that would have been my vote. >> yeah. all right. >> another royal photograph is creating a stir. it turns out one featuring the late queen elizabeth. the second was also co edited this photo was shared last april and shows the queen with her grandchildren and great grandchildren. it was taken allegedly by kate middleton, who has been at the center of her own photo controversy. this one

was digitally enhanced in over a dozen spots. do you think this is a big deal? oh, a lot of people use photoshop. yes, but, you know, some people say a different set of rules should apply to the royal family because it's also historic. right? anything involving the queen. et cetera. et cetera. so what can you trust now? >> i mean, we should have known it was fake. there's how many ten grandchildren in there, and they're all perfectly smiling. and, you know, when does that ever happen in in any family photo. so that one doesn't actually surprise me. and i don't think there's anything wrong with it, because we're not wondering how the queen is doing with kate middleton. we're all wondering why and what's going on with her. so there's a little bit of back story, a little bit of controversy there with her photoshopping. >> yeah. >> see, i feel sort of the same way. it doesn't surprise me, but it also doesn't bother me. i mean, come on, it's a family picture. but if it were something that had historic value, like signing a bill into law or you know that you want it to be authentic, the only thing

i worry about, similar to, to piggyback on what you're saying, is if you're talking about photos from official places and if i can't trust the source now because you're messing around, putting my head on kristen's head or whatever you're doing. >> yeah. which is just scary to even think of. >> sorry, kristen. >> yeah. >> we don't want that scary thing of your head where he is now. >> we really have to go now. that's it for but we're just getting started.

everything going well? oh yeah. let's take a look at this knee. because it's the work behind the scenes, that truly matters.
