we begin with a developing story out of costa rica where 12 people, 10 of them american tourists, were killed in a plane crash. the single engine charter plane went down in a wooded area shortly after takeoff. among the americans on board, a family of five from suburban new york, identified as bruce and irene steinberg and their three sons. horrified vacationers saw the plane go down and rushed to the wreckage to try to help. >> my family and i were having lunch and we heard the plane coming overhead pretty low, so we all left the table to go see the plane pass overhead with our kids. and as it flew over the top of us, it made a really hard left-hand turn and was totally sideways and then nose dived straight into the ground and there was an explosion. >> a florida couple and their daughter were on board as well as two costa rican

pilots. a man with a grudge against police shot five police officers killing one of them. 29-year-old on the job just for seven months. abc's clayton sandell has more. [ sirens ] >> reporter: police say it was an ambush. >> shots fired, shots fired! >> reporter: shortly after arriving at this apartment complex near denver after a domestic disturbance call, police say 37-year-old matthew riehl suddenly opens fire. the suspect hitting five officers and two neighbors. the officer retreat outside but 29-year-old deputy zachary parish does not make it out. >> we have one deputy down inside the apartment. i'm not getting anything from him. all of us have been hit at least once. >> reporter: over the next hour and a half, the suspect fires more than 100 times. >> several rounds firing, firing inside again. >> reporter: at 7:30 police go back in, riehl is shot and killed. deputy parish, a married father of two, does not survive. >> when i sat with his wife and

held her hand, i could see in her eyes her life was over. >> reporter: riehl was known for previous calls and was often critical of police in videos posted to youtube. >> libertarian candidate for sheriff of douglas county. >> reporter: the other wounded officers, now in stable condition. for "good morning america," clayton sandell, abc news, highlands ranch, colorado. and we're following breaking news from iran where 12 people have been killed in anti-government protests there. security forces fought armed demonstrators who tried to take over police stations and military bases. the government's handling of the protests of the economy quickly started to spread across the country on thursday. several others have been wounded and hundreds arrested. president trump is wrapping up his florida vacation this afternoon heading back to the white house after seeing 2018 in his mar-a-lago resort in palm beach. the president arrived at a black tie bash with the first lady

melania and son baron trump. he touted his accomplishments of his first year in office. >> we're off to a good start as you know with the great tax cuts and anwar and getting rid of the individual mandate which was very, very unpopular as you know, but we are going to have a tremendous year. >> the president also fired off a tweet wishing happy new year to his friends, enemies, haters and the so-called fake news media. more than a million people braved the second coldest new year's eve on record in times square. the clock struck midnight, and the mercury was down to jus happy new year to you. looking at some clouds around the south end of the bay. another mild day today. partly cloudy skies. more clouds tomorrow. rainy pattern begins on wednesday. it's a spare the air alert today. 62 downtown over in oakland. 64 in san jose. the accuweather seven-day forecast, more clouds tomorrow. rain arrives on wednesday, lasts

through friday. dry next weekend. and the weather in southern california, they should be near perfect for this morning's tournament of roses parade. some spectators spending the night along the parade route. they are protecting their spots. this year's theme is making a difference. now back to you in the studio. >> thank you so much, ron. and now to the year in politics. it was less than 12 months ago that president trump took office, putting health care, taxes, north korea and the russia investigation center stage, and our abc political round table is breaking down the year's biggest moments and what is next for 2018. >> hey amy, good morning. i'm here in the white house briefing room with my friends, abc political director rick klein and senior congressional correspondent mary bruce. we have got the nearly impossible task of coming up with a highlights reel for the year that was, so no pressure.

you first, rick. what stood out to you the most? >> it turns out the great dealmaker actually doesn't go and cut a lot of great big deals. remember how he governed, an independent voice that was going come in and drain the swamp. work with democrats and work with republicans. he has governed in a very ideological way to the right. those deals are out there but he hasn't made a lot of calls to chuck and nancy. >> remember all the talk of unified government. it has been a very long time since they have had republicans in control in this building and on the hill. they made big promises, everything from health care reform to building that wall. they did just have a big victory on tax reform but in a lot of ways their own republican infighting blocked them at a lot of turns this year. >> the clock ran out for them, and of course, that me too movement with so many women around the country coming forward, accusing men of sexual misconduct. it happened right here in this town. a lot of members of congress lost their jobs basically because of it, and the president had to face his own accusations. that certainly was a highlight for me. let's look ahead, no pressure, 2018, what do you have, mary? >> i'm going to stay with the year of the women.

that's a trend to watch. women on capitol hill are pushing especially to make headway on the issue of sexual harassment. you see women voters driving races from alabama to virginia and you're seeing a lot more women signing up to run going forward. >> watch the wave. we saw rumblings of an earthquake that could come in 2018. and you know that a mid-term year is always bad for the party in power. it has the potential to be disastrous. when you have the turnout that happened to some of these states like alabama or virginia in smaller or local races, democrats are showing you they can win in the era of trump. >> how can we forget russia as we head into this new year. will president trump have to sit down with robert mueller's team. how close will this get to the oval office. will he pardon anyone else. we will be watching all of these things. guys, back to you. it's going to be a big year ahead. so the new year is also the perfect time to re-group and reset both mentally and physically, and our chief medical correspondent, dr. jen ashton, is with us to help this

matter. [ applause ] >> that's right, dr. jen. let's begin with a healthy mind. what do you know about the science behind mindfulness and meditation? >> there's legitimate scientific data that shows that using tests like functional mris or eegs or checking vital signs or blood tests that meditation and mindfulness has positive impacts on our health. it does everything from boost the brain connectivity which is our signaling in our brain, it lowers blood pressure, reduces cortisol, lowers our respiratory rate. it makes you feel good. you know our good buddy -- >> yes. we know someone who has been preaching for quite some time. abc's own dan harris, and he senten sent us a message with one of the questions that main folks have. take a listen. >> hey guys, happy new year. i'm coming to you from my house. as you know, meditation has made a big difference in my life. for the last year i've been researching what stops people

who want to meditate from actually doing the thing. i think there are two big reasons. one is that people incorrectly assume they need to clear their minds. this is important to note, clearing your mind is impossible unless you're enlightened or dead. so just set that aside. the other obstacle is time. a lot of people worry and work, and say, i don't have time for this thing. on this count i've got good news and better news. five to ten minutes a day is a good way to get started. i think one minute absolutely counts. i don't think meditation is going to solve all of your problems, nothing will but as i like to say it might make you -- sorry, that's my son right there. it might make you 10% happier. >> that's a must read if you haven't read it for 2018. >> totally. >> so this is another broad question, but we love your tips so much. >> thank you. >> please tell me more. what would you say your top three tips are for everybody for health in 2018?

>> narrow it down. >> that's like the top three weather stories. i think you would have to start with what i call the trifecta of wellness which is everyone, all of us, has to commit to good food, good fitness and sleep. that is the foundation for everything that we feel, mind, body and spirit. >> can we do that, everybody? [ applause ] >> have to. >> that's a great resolution. >> the basics, and i literally tell people if you have anything that's bothering you, if those three things are not locked down in order, don't even think about taking it from there. i think the second part is focusing on that mind, body, spirit connection. >> the meditation. >> yeah. i think that's really important. a lot of people are good at the body but not good at the mind and the spirit. then this last one is important. i would aim for kind of a middle ground with most medical treatments -- >> i don't know what you mean there. >> i think we get into trouble in this country with extremes. and any extreme can be potentially dangerous, but certainly for people who are living with some variety of chronic kind of conditions.

i think the best holistic approach is the best of western medicine, the best of some nonwestern approaches. and that's really the middle ground where i think you get the best result. any extreme makes me a little nervous. >> i have a followup. how do you get the eastern with the western? >> i mean, i think that you have to go to someone who knows a little bit about both or a lot about both and i think you always have to weigh risk versus benefit. not everything we do in western medicine is perfect and same thing with nonwestern medicine. so i think that's where the gray zone can be really helpful. >> you have to have a guide. that's why we have you. >> thank you. >> going into 2018 now that we've got that fresh year -- >> you want my forecast? >> i want your forecast. >> do you like what i did there? so i think in the crystal ball for medicine and health and wellness, look at three basic things. obesity, i think we're going to see a big push in medicine to manage it aggressively.

when we talk about cancer, it's all about personalized targeted gene therapies, not one size fits all when you talk about cancer. then longevity, this is what we're going to be hearing a lot about. the fda launched its first ever trial on longevity. they picked this drug metformin which is used to treat diabetes type 2, and it has been shown to improve life span in animals, reduce the rates of some kinds of cancers, maybe helpful with weight loss. so remember that name. >> is that for everybody? >> it's not ready for primetime yet but it is being called the possible aspirin of the 21st century. guys, you heard it here. first longevity, in my crystal ball. >> i've heard that term more and more and i want to talk to you mother about that. that's fantastic. thank you. this morning we're also going to put our finances into focus. abc's rebecca jarvis has five great tips to balance your checkbooks and max out that 401(k).

>> reporter: looking to keep your money resolutions in 2018? we have five tips to set you off on the right financial foot in the new year. tip number one, check that credit report at annualcreditreport.com. you're entitled to one free report a year. this is especially important after more than 145 million americans had their data exposed in the massive equifax data breach. correct any errors and be sure there aren't any fraudulent accounts open in your name. tip number two, pay down your debt. 46% of americans have outstanding credit card debt and the average household carries a credit card balance of $8,109. as interest rates continue to rise, so will that debt. tip number three, get automated, give yourself one less thing to worry about, and set up auto pay on all your bills. save time and money by avoiding any future late fees. tip number four, max out that 401(k).

many employers offer a match, and if you're not taking full advantage, you're leaving money on the table. unsure how to invest? consider this simple rule of thumb. 100 minus your age equals the amount you should be putting into stocks. 30 years old, that's 70% in stocks. the rest can go in money market and bond funds. tip number five, stick to your budget. it's easier than ever to set a budget and stick to it thanks to your smartphone. apps like good budget and mint let you set and track your spending hassle free. you can even connect to your bank account to automatically track the categories where you spend money. for "good morning america," i'm rebecca jarvis in new york. >> thanks so much. amy, we'll head over to you. new year's day is also a big one for college football. the top four teams set to face off in the college football playoff semifinals. i'm so excited. my georgia bulldogs are taking on the oklahoma sooners and the reigning champs, the clemson

tigers, are facing off against the alabama crimson tide. espn's jesse palmer joins us to break it all down. good morning, jesse. happy new year. >> good morning, amy. happy holidays. i miss you. >> i miss you too. we have to talk like this now? all right, let's talk about football and let's start with top ranked clemson taking on alabama which by the way was a controversial choice for the fourth seed. this is the third time these two teams will meet in the playoffs. what are -- what can we see? >> i think we're going to see another epic matchup here. both of these teams have great defenses. there's so much nfl talent on both of these teams. we're talking about the two best coaches in all of college football, nick saban from alabama, dabo swinney from clemson. i think at the start of the year we thought we were going to see these two teams square off in yet another national championship. this year we're going to get it in the semifinal. but this is unbelievable. the last two times we saw these two teams play, they were epic matchups and i think we're going

to get another one again down in the sugar bowl january 1st. >> also let's talk about georgia versus oklahoma in the rose bowl. this is the first time these powerhouses who started playing in the 1890s are going to be meeting. what are we going to see and be careful what you say here, jesse. >> it's amazing to think of all the history these two teams have and the heisman championships and trophy winners. there's no better situation and setting than the rose bowl. talk about oklahoma first off, you have to talk about baker mayfield, the quarterback. he ran away with the heisman trophy this year. he's the best player in college football. he's accurate. he's got great arm strength. they have the best offense in the country because of him and he seemingly wills them to victory. i like your bulldogs too, amy. i think they've got the best group of running backs in the entire country, when you talk about nick chubb and sony michelle.

i also love jake fromm. nobody even knew his name at the start of the year. he was the back-up. all of a sudden they had an injury and the rest is history. >> i just got chills when you were saying all of that, jesse. i'm so excited. >> my skin is crawling right now. i can't wait. >> bottom line, what are your predictions? >> starting off in the sugar bowl, i'm picking clemson over alabama because of their defense, especially their defensive line. amy, i'm taking oklahoma over georgia because of the -- >> you have to because you're a gator. >> the national championship game we've got clemson against oklahoma. you know what we always say, defense wins championships and that's why i'm picking the clemson tigers to repeat as national champs. >> i'm going to tell you anything can happen. my bulldogs are going to take it. that's my prediction. jesse, love you. let's talk face-to-face next time, all right? >> absolutely. miss you guys. >> you can see both college football semifinal games on espn. oklahoma takes on georgia at 5:00 p.m. eastern followed by clemson versus alabama.

[ cheers and applause ] >> resolutions later. i want to talk about champagne, why not. this is the first "pop news" of 2018, everybody. oh, a fine vintage of sparkling cider. many of you have sipped a glass of the real thing, the bubbly, to ring in the new year at this point i'm guessing. [ applause ]

right? it turns out there's actually science behind the pop that you hear when opening the bottle. mathematician chang reveals it's about getting the right chill before opening and the right amount of pressure. she suggested that you cool the bottle in an ice bucket about 40 minutes before you want to do it -- before you want to drink it. you should get your bubbly to about 44 degrees. once it's child the cook should come out fairly easily and that pop shouldn't scare anyone. it should be pleasing to the ear like, she says, symbols or birds chirping. >> she's obviously never heard chirping. >> she might have had a glass or two when she wrote this study. if your bottle of bubbly misses out on the perfect pop, hopefully the champagne tasted so good that it didn't matter. happy new year, everyone. that's a little science for you.

essentially put it in the fridge. >> maybe people won't regret having opening champagne. >> thank you, ginger zee. up next, the holidays are filled with suitweets, candy canes, christmas cookies. when it comes to salted caramels, scientists say it may just be impossible to resist. it's all thanks to an addictive combination of sugar, salt and fat that presses the want more button so to speak in our brains. the trio was vital to early man's survival in the wild which is why it is almost ann animal instinct to be attracted to the food. it's called heeden is tick escalation. when you can't stop eating something even when your

conscious brain tells you that you are full. would you like to share with us, ginger zee? >> i love popcorn and milk. it's really strange but i love that combination. >> that qualifies. how about you? >> i mean -- >> come on. >> i love -- it's very hard for me to say no to cheesecake. >> that's a good one. and salted caramels. finally, so we've eaten, we've had champagne and let's talk about working out. gyms everywhere will hit max capacity with folks trying to stick to their weight loss resolutions. there is an at-home workout we wanted to share with you. she's from tennessee and uses wine as equipment apparently. her videos have racked more than 20 million views, you guys. so funny. she's made almost 15 of them.

she says they're just for fun. she does love working out, loves wine. she does not recommend combining them. [ applause ] turning now to the rising stars already making their mark on hollywood, from the newcomer behind the blockbuster hit "get out" to the 14-year-old sharing the silver screen with oprah, abc's nick watt has the ones to watch in 2018 and we're watching you right now, nick. happy new year. >> happy new year to you, lara. there has been a lot of talk about bringing more much-needed diversity to tinseltown and our industry watchers say that diversity is very evident amongst the up and comers that we're seeing right now poised on the precipice of stardom. >> i need help. >> reporter: "star wars" is the star maker these days. think daisy ridley and john boyega.

next up, kelly marie tran. she bagged the biggest new role. >> i can name every single person in this film. i felt like i went to an epic acting school. >> from nothing to "star wars" is someone worth paying attention to. >> reporter: timothy shalamay in "call me by your name" and in "lady bird". >> we're definitely going to be seeing him around the award circuit. >> i'm known to be quite vexing. >> reporter: while we're talking oscar love, we must talk margot robb robbie. you probably heard of her, but she's about to go stratosphere. >> we also judge on presentation. >> she's proven she can play anything. >> reporter: as can star of this summer's surprise smash "get out". >> we remember his face with the

tears. it's become a meme all over the internet. "a wrinkle in time", our youngest hot property. >> i've never done this big of a film before. >> storm reid is only 14 but she is the lead in "a wrinkle in time". >> reporter: then this guy, star of critical hit box office "caesar" alongside clooney. shy when i chatted to the cast. >> you hope to work with people like as high of a level as you possibly can. >> and when you can't? >> when you can't, you settle. >> everyone walked out of that film saying who is this guy, he looks like an old hollywood movie star. >> reporter: he just landed the role of youthful han but caveat time. this is just a list that we put together. our hunch is no one in l.a. truly really knows how this

fickle entertainment business works and the line between so hot and so not can be very thin. lara. >> 100% true, nick. anybody that didn't make the list that you now would like to share? >> yes. yes. la keefe stanfield, a stunning performance in "get out." also, a 7-year-old brooklyn prince who might win an oscar for "the florida project." she says she wants to be the first girl president. >> love her even more. and you. nick watt, thank you. happy new year. to ginger and amy. thank you, lara. now to our rejuvenation nation, helping you start healthy habits from the inside out and we're here with dietitian and nutritionist maya feller and dr. whitney bowe. we're going to get to you in a moment. maya, we begin with you. tell us about the nutrition points we should be focusing on in 2018. >> first of all, happy new year.

i want to say that it's really important to focus on reducing the inflammatory foods, increasing the anti-inflammatory foods, staying well hydrated and paying attention to prebiotic intake. >> we're going to get specific on all of those things. we begin with the food that affects inflammation. which ones are we talking about? >> the pro inflammatory foods are filled with added sugars, salt and fat. here that is right here. >> the stuff is that tastes good. >> it's what we have just come off of eating in the holidays. we've been having more cookies, soda, cake and that increases the risk of heart disease and increases gas and bloating and distension. for weight management when we engage in this type of behavior on a regular basis, it's not healthy. >> i've cut that out of my life and i've never felt better, i have to say. >> absolutely. >> what about the foods that are actually good to eat. i'm assuming that's what these are. >> that's exactly what these

are. this is a gorgeous plethora of anti-inflammatory foods. we have some of our heart healthy nuts. they have cardio protective benefits. we see olive oil. part of the mediterranean diet. i personally love it. we have berries, tons of antioxidan antioxidants, spinach and citrus. >> honestly, you feel so much better when you eat this versus this. >> the research shows that when you engage in eating pro inflammatory foods you crave it more. your body wants it but we want your body to have this. >> your body needs liquid so we have a lot of liquid in front of us. >> absolutely. these two cylinders, it looks like a ton of water. 2.7 liters for women and 3.7 for men. i know that's lot but you can get hydration from water as well as food. what i have in the front is ginger, cayenne and lemon, my favorite way to make a nice new year's hot beverage.

we also have coffee beans. coffee can be hydrating in moderation. for people who are sensitive i say watch out for the side effects. >> you said it earlier and i thought maybe you misspoke but you didn't. prebiotics versus probiotics. >> prebiotics are kind of like the food for the probiotics. probiotics need to be fed and the prebiotics are dandelion greens, garlic, bananas. they help feed the probiotics and they colonize that good gut bacteria. >> these are vitamins? >> supplements. i personally like to tell my patients to get their prebiotics from the foods but you can get it from a supplement. >> thanks so much. lara, now you have some skin care secrets with dr. bowe. >> dr. bowe is here with a lot of stuff. we're going to talk about this year's big beauty buy. i want to start with the lips. >> 2018 is all about lip serums,

advanced nail solutions and heat free drying. we all remember lip plumpers. >> they kind of burned, the old ones. >> they temporarily added volume but did nothing to slow down the signs of aging and often left the lips dry and irritated. in 2018 keep an eye out for lip serums, specifically designed to care for the fragile, delicate tissue as well as the surrounding skin. these not only nourish, plump and hydrate the lips but smooth out fine lines that make our lipstick bleed. these are two of my favorite brands, under $50. >> will they actually add a little plump? >> they do plump. >> love that. let's talk about nails. you talk about something like a nail holiday. >> a manicure holiday. i always used to encourage my patients to take a manicure holiday every couple of months to prevent their nails from getting dry and brittle and that meant they had to go polish free for one to two weeks.

now you can rest and repair your nails without sacrificing a manicure. there are nail strengthening formulas that come in gorgeous shades but decrease peeling and breakage in one week. i'm actually wearing one of my favorite shades called sheers to you which is perfect for the new year. >> yes. i'm a big fan. >> $10. >> when we look for essie, what are -- >> look for tlc. that's the line. it's a single coat. >> love that. now the hair. zoe, our brave girl today. >> rocking her turban. high tech hair drying. when hair is wet, any harsh rubbing or overheating can break fragile strands. there's a generation of hair towels specifically engineered to dry hair quickly and gently without causing frizz or damage. they're made with microfiber technology and these ultra fine fibers.

they wick away moisture with zero friction. it cuts down drying time by 50%. these are $30. >> you might still need to smooth but this will get your hair -- >> you can blow dry a little bit but much less heat is needed. >> great tips. thank you. thank you guys. you can get more healthy tips on our website, goodmorningamerica.com on yahoo!. koumg coming up, the hottes fashion trends for the new year and how to get them for way less. stay with us.
