demands that he be remanded. >> reporter: and there he went, straight to jail in handcuffs, to spend his first night behind bars. murray's california medical license, that was stripped away, too. >> i just thank the jury and our sympathies go out to the jackson family at this time for the loss that they have suffered. ♪ >> reporter: over the past six weeks at times it felt like michael jackson himself was on trial, the defense painting the pop star as a desperate addict, using dr. murray to get drugs, a down on his luck has been with a bizarre lifestyle. >> everything about him is sick. >> reporter: cameras were given exclusive access to murray's defense team. >> thank you. i love you, lord. >> reporter: and even access to conrad murray himself, during the trial, behind closed doors, all for a documentary, "michael jackson and the doctor" airing later this week on msnbc.

murray opening up about his star patient. >> he really could not sleep. have you ever seen the "thriller" image when he was made up? he looked that hysterical. >> reporter: for the first time on camera, murray describes what happened inside michael's bedroom the day he died, blaming jackson's body guard for the chaos. >> i told security to get the kids away from there, get the kids away from there because i did not want them to see their father getting cpr. >> kind of ushered them out and said, "kids, don't worry, we'll take care of it. everything is going to be okay." >> and he says, "doctor, doctor, what happened? i need help." i'm doing cpr, mr. jackson is not breathing. call 911, i need you to call 911. >> we have a ja here that needs help and he's not breathing.

>> in addition to me doing cpr, chest compression, and trying to resuscitate this patient, i'm controlling him on the 911 call. how old is this patient? 50. get the [ bleep ] over here. get here. i need you to come. come on. help me. >> reporter: the body guard says he did all he could. it isn't all anger from murray. he gets emotional, too, discussing his close relationship with michael, like kindred spirits. >> he said "of all my life, i have found one friend which is you, dr. conrad." >> reporter: murray says they both grew up with controlling fathers. >> i think in some ways there were mirror images of our lives,

especially did not have the full appreciation from our fathers. he had a dad that never hugged him, never hugged his own children. he lived a life written in 100 years of pain. >> reporter: even if murray's intentions were good, the jury didn't seem to care, guilty and now it is the doctor who faces years of suffer. so here's what comes next. murray will be sentenced november 29th and the judge has full discretion here. he can give murray anything from just probation up to four years in state prison. legal experts say the fact that the judge sent him right to jail on monday not a good sign for murray at sentencing. michael jackson's oldest sister rebbie jackson was in the courtroom for the verdict and joins us exclusively. good morning to you. >> good morning. >> describe your emotions upon hearing the verdict and anything that michael jackson's children may have said about it. >> when i heard the verdict, i thought i was going to feel as though i got a tremendous amount

of relief, but i felt really numb and not only that, i started crying profusely. >> do you know why? >> i guess because the reality of what had transpired really hit me at that point and even though he passed a few years ago, going on into the third year i think, the problem with it was that it sort of just brought everything back to reality, and it was so much. it was just tremendous. >> prince, paris, blanket, did they say anything? >> i hadn't seen them, because when i left the court, they were still in school. we went back to my mom's home, but i'm sure they feel a lot of relief in relationship to him. >> we have a video clip dr. murray did a few weeks ago with savannah guthrie. i want to get your reaction on the other side. let's listen. >> reporter: do you remember his final words before he died? >> it was probably i don't know, but probably when he was

pleading and begging me to please, please let him have some milk because that was the only thing that would work. >> what do you want to say about the effort by the defense to paint your brother as an addict who contributed to his own death? >> well, my problem is that i have with the entire theory or the situation was the fact that the doctor took an oath in being a professional. he performed something in a private setting, you might say, that is giving, administering propofol, which is wrong, so no matter what the situation was, he was wrong because he's not supposed to do that. >> was your brother to blame at all in contributing, in your view, to his death? >> i don't think so, not at all. i don't think so. >> you're not sure. >> not at all, i don't think he contributed to the death, i don't think so, no. >> but will you acknowledge that he did, was addicted to

medications? >> he had addiction to prescription drugs, i do know that. >> dr. murray is now in jail, he could get anything from probation to four years in prison and sentencing on november 29th. what do you think should be the penalty? >> well, i'm going to leave all of that in god's hands. i do know that because of the law that has recently been passed i understand the jails are overcrowded so he's supposed to get up to four years but i have been told that he might just get house arrest. i don't know. and it's sad, because my brother is gone and nothing will bring him back, that's for sure. >> dr. murray said he loved your brother. do you have any sympathy for him at all? >> no, i don't, not in that way i don't because if you love someone you'll do what you think is best for him, not what you think they want to you do. >> how are michael's children now, two and a half years after his death, how are they doing? >> they to be very honest they seem to be functioning fairly well. they're in a new society you

might say arrangement interacting with people in the public and enjoying their lives as best they can. >> that's good news, rebbie jackson. thanks for being with us this morning. >> you're welcome. thank you for having me. much more of our exclusive interview with dr. murray friday. see "michael jackson and the doctor" friday night 10:00 p.m. eastern time on msnbc. we'll make a turn now to politics and the newest claim of sexual misconduct lefrld against gop front-runner herman cain. a fourth accuser came forward monday. we'll talk to her in a moment. first nbc's kelly o'donnell is in washington with details. >> good morning, ann. the latest accuser said she wanted to put a face and voice to the other women who have also claimed that herman cain committed some kind of sexual harassment against them. now this woman had not filed a formal complaint but she came forward with some specific and even graphic details about what she says happened when she spent time with cain.

cain made a campaign stop on late night tv. >> all things considered, i'm still alive. >> reporter: herman cain with host jimmy kimmel. >> the feelings that you have when you know that all of this is totally fabricated, you go from anger, then you go, you get disgusted, because there's not an ounce of truth in all of these accusations. >> reporter: that was just hours after sharon baialek provided a lengthy account saying cain groped her 14 years ago. >> he suddenly put his hand on my leg, under my skirt and reached for my genitals. he also grabbed my head and brought it towards his crotch. >> reporter: in 1997, bialek had been let go from an education foundation tied to the national restaurant association, where cain was president. she says she knew cain and wanted his help to find a job.

her attorney is gloria all-red. >> instead of receiving the help that she had hoped for, mr. cain instead decided to provide her with his idea of a stimulus package. >> i said, "what are you doing? you know i have a boyfriend. this isn't what i came here for." mr. cain said, "you want a job, right?" >> reporter: late monday night his campaign lashed ought at bialek calling her "a woman with a long history of severe financial difficulties, including personal bankruptcy." meanwhile, the lawyer for another accuser who had filed a complaint and received a settlement was pleased bialek spoke out. >> her allegations are similar to the incidents that my client suffered, not exactly the same but similar, and to me it shows a pattern. >> cain says he will fight back with a news conference this afternoon, where he will be in phoenix, and we already get a sense of what he will say, his

campaign is saying, that gloria allred the attorney is a democratic activist who is celebrity seeking and make the suggestion that opponents somehow convinced sharon bialek to come forward with false accusations he says with a potential of somehow making money. allred says bialek has not sold her story. >> thank you so much. sharon bialek is with us along with other than allred. >> good morning. >> first address your response to the mccain campaign calling you "a woman with a long history of severe financial difficulties and personal bankruptcy." you have filed for bankruptcy twice. is your coming forward a part of any kind of financial motivation? >> absolutely not. and you know what? i had spoken to gloria about this before. there were no skeletons in my closet. i told her that this may come up and i expected this. this is what happens. it's not about me. i'm not the one running for president. >> but it's also important to

know she could have sold her story. she like millions of americans has financial difficulty, up front about that. >> point taken. >> she wants to tell the truth. >> did anyone with the other campaigns encourage you to speak out? >> no, absolutely not. i came of my own volition. >> why after an event you say happened 14 years ago are you only coming forward now? >> there's a variety of reasons. number one, ann, when this happens the first reaction is you're embarrassed. number two i had a boyfriend at the time, we discussed it briefly although i didn't share the details with him and he said it's going to be one of those he said shsh she said things. these were the late '90s. unfortunately we're still not where we should be in these types of cases so for those reasons. >> you're absolutely sure he used the words "you want a job, right" those were his exact words? >> yes. >> the mccain campaign as you know has since disputed this, saying in a statement, "all

allegations of harassment against mr. cain are completely false. mr. cain has never harassed anyone." what is your reaction to that? >> i think maybe mr. cain's definition of harassment might be different. maybe he doesn't feel he harassed them. >> gloria, does this technically qualify as harassment? sharon no longer worked for the national restaurant association? >> she may have had rights nonetheless because she was seeking his help getting a job. the real question is, ann, should the public believe the word of four different women, two of whom filed claims of venti sexual harassment and received settlements for them or the word of one man who has a motive to deny. >> here is another question being raised by the right. the question as you heard in kelly's report that this is a part of partisan politics that you, gloria, just before the california election for governor you held a news conference with republican meg whitman's fired housekeeper who was an illegal

imgrant and she lost the election and you've contributed thousands of dollars to barack obama and hillary clinton. so is this a politically motivated effort on your behalf? >> absolutely not. the last big news conference i did in new york was against congressman, democratic congressman anthony weiner. my client said he should resign, he sent her sexual messages and that was one of the reasons he thought he should resign. i've also criticized president clinton when he lied to the american public. if a man commits an injustice against a woman, sexual harassment which by the way is no joke although apparently herman cain wants to make it a laughing matter, then i am going to speak out against them if they're democrat, republican, libertarian, or no party at all. >> all right, gloria allred and sharon bialek thank you so much. >> thank you. >> i know this is not the last we'll hear about this. now let's get a check of the weather from mr. roker.

al, good morning. >> good morning, ann. we have pretty incredible storm chaser video. we'll look at that coming up. we've got severe storms today ahead of this system. there is this video where a storm chaser gets a little bit too close to this system and all of the sudden his car gets flipped. fortunately nobody injured in this but it was only a matter of time before something like that happened. here's where we've got the risk of strong storms from houston up to st. louis, ahead of the system, behind it unseasonably cold air. showers, tornados possible ahead of the system, rainfall amounts from three to five inches of rain from oklahoma city up to joliet, innoise. behind it we're talking anywhere from three to six inches of snow through the central plains and upper midwest over t we are at freezing in santa rosa.

best foods and holiday leftovers become irresistibly creamy turkey casserole. real delicious best foods. make it real. make it different.

we're back now at 7:41, with former president bill clinton. the nation's unemployment rate now stands at 9% with 14 million people out of work and president clinton is offering his proposal to get people off the unemployment lines in his new book "back to work: why we need smart government for a strong economy." whether president good morning. >> good morning, ab. >> "back to work" is a prescription for economic renewal. is there anything that could be done right now that is not being done that could spark the movement towards creating more

jobs? >> yes, but it won't bring us all the way back. let me explain what i mean. what happened to us was we had a financial collapse and a real estate collapse. if you go back 500 years, when countries do this, it takes a long time to get over, sometimes five to ten years, sometimes even longer. so i wrote this book to try to explain how we can beat those odds, but there's no instantaneous fix. i think the president's proposals on the payroll tax cuts for employers and employees would help and i think they should pass. then i think we have to get the money going in the economy again, which means you have to get the bank money released, primarily that's reforming the mortgage crisis, get corporations to invest back in america again. there's $4 trillion in banks and corporations that could be invested here, and that would take the world out of the financial crisis. >> the question is, whether to get them to invest that money. you compliment the president on

some of his policies but i want to point out you also point out a number of mistakes made by president obama and the democratic party, including not making a stronger case for efforts to stabilize the economy in 2009, failing to craft an effective national campaign message to counter the tea party's anti-government rhetoric of 2010 and bungling their response to the country's debt by not choosing to raise the debt ceiling in 2010 when they had a democratic majority in the house. why offer these criticisms now in this book, are you considering them fodder for the republican party? >> first of all, no. well probably because this is the second you question you asked me proves the thing i said in the book. the first thing i said is what happened to us politically and economically, conflict makes better politics and cooperation with news better economics. the book lavishly praises the administration's economic and energy policy and the second question i get asked is this. this is the way america works.

>> but do you criticize the president. >> well first of all i made a mistake as it turns out on the debt ceiling, because i didn't think it was subject to the filibuster. turns out the white house told me, gene sperling said they tried to raise the debt ceiling and senator mcconnell said he wouldn't do it unless they caved to all their demands. on the other thing we made the same mistake when i was president in 1994, we didn't run a national campaign. so the debt, the tea party line basically was the only thing people heard, but i think that the important thing is what are we going to do now and what works best in real life is cooperation, not conflict, and so we got a big disconnect between where our politics have worked, conflict works, and the way our economics works. if you look at silicon valley, if you look at san diego, where they had the human genome center and one nobel prize winner in

the city, 100 computer simulation companies, cleveland clinic and the cuyahoga community college are training mid career people with high school educations who have lost their jobs and are desperate to go back into health care work. pittsburgh switching from steel to nanotechnology, all of these places you got the government and the private sector working together. that's what works. >> you say cooperation. i want to play you a clip, because it's not the only thing i think you've said that has worked. in 1992 there was a presidential campaign video in which you talked about something else. i want to show you that video. >> we've got to put our own house in order and restore the middle class, reduce poverty, bring this country together again. i've got a fine national economic strategy for the short and long run but in the end a plan is just a piece of paper. to make it change lives you need leadership and vision and action. that's been the work of my life and that's why i'm running for president. >> first of all, how cute were you and your hair hasn't changed but number two, number two, you talk about vision there and

leadership. so what is president obama's vision on the economy? >> he wants to work, he wants it to work for everybody. he wants to have broad-based prosperity, shared prosperity, growing middle class again, not the kind of growth we had in the last ten years where almost all the income gains went to the top 10%, most of that to the top 1% and you had median income declining as it still is. poverty rising, that doesn't work. to build a shared economy, with shared prosperity, you have to have growing jobs, and until you get job growth, until you get economic growth, we can't balance the budget. i don't care what you do. they're finding that now in the uk. you can cut spending, you can raise taxes, do whatever you want. if you can't balance the budget until we grow this economy again. >> i want to know what you think about this, because when you look at the president's disapproval rating on the economy, it's 57%, according to the latest poll.

you know, you often speak of your wife's extraordinary gifts. do you ever think that the country would be better off if she had won the presidency? >> i don't think about it. >> you don't? >> no. >> why? >> because i deal with the world as it is. i think he's done a better job than he's getting credit for. i think he now has a congress that doesn't want to do anything with him, and until the american people send them a signal that they want to send the tea party republicans a snaignal they wan cooperation you're going to have trouble and it's unfair to compare president obama adversely to me. they're talking about my last five years as president, the proper comparison is what happened to me in 1995 in my third year, same thing that's happened to him. we went through the same thing, not much happened. we fought and there were two government shutdowns, and the voters decided they agreed with the approach i was taking. the congress got the message,

then we started working together. so there hasn't been an action-forcing event yet. you can see by this book i essential i agree with his energy policy. we've lost manufacturing jobs every single year in the eight years before he became president. we got a chance to get them back again. he's got a good export strategy, a great idea for the infrastructure bank that puts private money and public money together. this book is about how to do this. it's not about politics. his politics will improve when the economy gets better but the american people need to send a signal to congress they want them to work together. not that he's right all the time or i was right. they have to work together. >> all right, well clearly you want us all to work together so we can get back to work and bill clinton, thank you for caring so much about america to write this book. >> thank you. i do. >> the book again is called "back to work." and still ahead, matt's back to work in madrid, including a rare look inside the duchess of

alba's palace there, right after this.

ann, see that beautiful building with the frescos behind me? the royal family used to have apartments in there. now it's the city council building, kind of like town hall. couples come here to get married, sometimes 10 or 12 each and every day, ann? >> matt that looks beautiful. looking forward to more and exclusive announcement from the

they are actually, if we go back into the plaza right now, you can see them building an altar in the center of the square. that's for a festival they are holding tomorrow. it should be shoulder to shoulder, some 5,000 people expected here in the plaza for the festival of the virgin of alagandana. that is the patron saint of madrid. by the way, what you are looking at here is not related to that. this is last month when they actually marched sheep through the city, through the streets of the city of madrid. this is an annual migration of farm animals from the north to the south. can you imagine what it must have been like to be in madrid and all these sheep came through? >> kind of like the running of the bulls. >> exactly. like the seals of pelican point yesterday. coming up, peter alexander is going to join me here in madrid. he is going to take us for a tour. it is the royal palace of madrid. it's enormous.

it is a scandal that has rocked this campus and its nationally renowned football program. today the legendary coach here, joe paterno, holds his regularly scheduled weekly press briefing, but most of the questions today will not be about football. >> reporter: three high profile penn state officials face charges. a sexual abuse scandal centered around former assistant football coach jerry sandusky, accused of sexually abusing eight boys in their early teens. one as young as 10. one allegedly attacked in the showers at a physical facility. disadvantaged boys involved in a charity sandusky founded. >> the sexual abuse of a child is a horrific offense. failing to report sexual abuse of children is a serious offense and a crime. >> reporter: prosecutors say athletic cleshgt tim curley and vice president schultz knew of complaints but did not alert authorities and allegedly lieded a grand jury investigating. on campus shock and anger.

>> i had a sense of pride about, like, you know, the university and that building and everything else, and now i look at it and i see corruption. >> reporter: prosecutors say coach paterno, one of the biggest names in college football, is not a target for now and that he reported an alleged attack to his boss, the athletic director. authorities say the bottom line is that when school officials were aware of such serious complaints, someone should have called police. >> this is not a case about football. it's a case about children who have had their innocence stolen from them in a culture that did nothing to stop it or prevent it from happening to others. >> reporter: all three men charged in the case maintain their innocence. all three are free on bail. investigators are asking for more victims if there are any out there to come forward so there may be more cases, more charges, and more arrests. natalie. >> ron allen in state college, pennsylvania. thank you. well, despite their bitter rivalry, both in and outside the boxing ring, mohammed ali says

largest seafood market in the world, only after tokyo. >> some people here consume a lot of seafood in their daily diet? >> a lot. >> paella is very popular. i'm a cheese boy and this is heaven if you like cheese. how much a part of the diet is this? >> big chunk. big chunk. there are 80 different spanish cheeses, 80, and probably the best known is the manchero because it's unique to spain. they use a ship called the manchera ship unique to this country. >> is it expensive here? >> it depends on the quality and the age, how long the aging has been. in this case it's about $13 for two pounds. >> it is a little expensive. we have some people spending money and doing shopping here but i want to show you, look at the olives here. why are olives so important here and why is olive oil so good

here? >> matt, this is, spain is the largest producer of oil in the world. 262 varieties of olives, and for example to give you an example, one province in spain produces more olives than greece. greece is the third producer in the world. one province. >> and people here when they shop for olive oil they shop for it the way we might consider shopping for wine, they look for subtle qualities in the olive oil. >> you have olive oil that goes from $3 a bottle to $170. coming from olive trees that are 1,000 years old. >> they take it very seriously as you can see. andres, thank you so much for the tour. we appreciate it. we'll have much more ahead from madrid on day two of where in the world but first this is "today" on nbc.

imagine traveling through time back to that infamous day in dallas when john f. committeeddy and his wife dallas were stepping off air force one smiling and shaking hands with the cheering crowd. then climbing into an open limousine for a short drive downtown. not knowing lee harvey oswald was waiting. what if you could have done something to stop the assassination and that kennedy had lived? that's the intriguing premise of stephen king's latest novel "11/22/63." good morning. >> good morning to you. >> this is a blockbuster of a book, and it's a blockbuster from the beginning. like on the front of it, which is a big massive book. you see this picture of the newspaper that ran after j.f.k. was shot, and on the back of the book i think we have a graphic that shows what could have happened. >> right. >> that he escaped the assassination. >> escaped assassination. >> you say it so could have been

the second story. >> it was so close. lee harvey oswald was a loner and expected to be famous. he expected press to meet him when he touched down in dallas, and when there was nobody there, he was very angry. he was a wife beater. he wasn't a guy who was very well organized, and he ended up getting the job at the texas school book depository before kennedy was scheduled to go to dallas, and he just happened to have a position on the sixth floor, and it's almost like he won the devil's lottery. >> i'm marveling at just how much you know about this. this speaks to your having done tremendous research to do this book, and you're not -- you're a man in a position who doesn't have to do that. what was the obsession? what sparked the inspiration -- what inspired you to this story? >> just that the kennedy assassination happened at a time

when america was at a crossroads. there was vietnam. there was the civil rights movement that was taking place at that time. there was the cold war. a lot of things were happening, and kennedy was coping with those things with a lot of what he called great vigor. he had a lot of charisma, and when he was killed, things changed, and it's impossible to not wonder what would have happened with vietnam, with the racial relations in america? what he would have done had he lived, and the other thing that interested me is the echos between the kennedy administration and the obama administration in the sense that both young men, both men who hadn't had a lot of political experience, who vaulted to national prominence. beautiful wife, beautiful children, and also that whole component of people who feel almost hateful toward those people. >> so enter then your tone with

which you introduce us to the character jack -- rather, jake eping. he is a high school english teacher. he uses a time bubble to go back to 1958. he lives a number of years until that fateful day, november 2, 1963, but he lives it following oswald and marina oswald and what -- you know, sort of rest your book on this. you had to sort of buy into the idea that oswald was the lone gunman. what convinces you? >> well, i read a stack of research materials that were -- it's about as high as i am, and, you know, i'm doing the book tour thing, and the conspiracy people will show up because they're very wedded to the idea, and norman maylor said one time it's virtually impossible for us to believe that one man did this and changed the whole history of the world. that's what still boggles my mind, so it's almost easier to believe that there was a conspiracy because then at least you get a sense that somebody

had a plan, that this was a planned event, this murder of the president, but if you believe that one man in one place could change history, then everything sort of becomes meaningless, and people don't like that. >> after 56 books our four decades -- nearly four decades, most of those books being about horror and dispense, you are moving in this book that's definitely a departure. it's a historical fiction, a historical thriller. no less than janice mazlin of the "new york times" he pulled off a sustained high wire of story telling trickery. he makes historical fiction work. is this what you are heading towards? >> i don't know if it's what i'm heading towards, but maybe i ought to buy janet a porsche. that was a great review, and i have been fortunate with this, and, you know, the research stuff, it has to be as close to right as possible because there are a lot of people watching, a lot of people are going to read the book, and, you know, i want to do my job.

i wanted to do my due diligence, and i wanted people to feel like they were there. that was important to me. >> well, you do. stephen king, janet mazlin, i'm sure would like to have a porsche, but thank you very much. the book is called "11/22/63." i know you'll be back talking to kathy lee and hoda. coming up next, more from matt in madrid on day two of where in the world, but, first, this is "today" on nbc. where in the wor this is "today" on nbc.

your patient, you have a responsibility, sometimes to walk away. >> i find obviously -- >> which the nurse did. >> i find interesting if i walk in a doctor's office and they recognize me, i almost have too much power at that point. why don't we try this. i don't want them to say okay. i think it's human nature, very interesting. >> there's a responsibility. >> he didn't work for michael jackson, he worked for the company, another problem there. >> there's going to be a lawsuit, i put my money on that. >> let's move on speaking of things that could turn legal and ugly. kim car dash yarkardashian's 20 ring. in order to keep the ring kim must pay kris humphries for the ring. don't give me that look, donny. >> guys, this is a very simple one. if the guy broke off the engagement you keep the ring. >> they were married. she sealed the deal. >> sealed the deal for 72 days, come on. let me finish. guys you're not letting me talk today. what's going on here? >> okay. >> the ridiculous thing is she

ended it. give the ring back. >> donny said the other day something about the fact she's hurt her brand. there are a couple of things here. first of all i think the ring is ugly so i wouldn't keep it anyway. >> turn it into something else. >> she has to do the classy thing show young girls it's not all about the money. do the right thing, give it back. bad karma. >> star? >> i want to let you no he we don't know what actually broke up the 72-day marriage. >> doesn't matter. >> what does the law say? >> it belongs to her. >> how about what's right and wrong. >> she didn't ask me what my moral course is. my moral core says give it back because you don't want to be with him anymore. 72 days they made a promise, she kept her ring. >> did you ever give the ring back? >> baby i'm wearing mine. what are you talking about? >> i gave mine back. >> i was married for three and a half years, this is the promise. >> first engagement called off, the lovely woman gave it back.

>> where is that? i'll take it. all right, let's talk about this next hot topic, chicken pox lollipops, one of the strangest things i've heard. heard of parents taking their children to parties to expose them to the measles, mumps, chicken pox. some parents are giving pox parties and letting their children have lollipops licked by children with chicken pox. this is a true thing. >> we have become crazy about vaccinations in this country. so we know that if you get chicken pox you're going to get lifelong immunity from the xh chicken pox. let me remind parents that every year in this country the equivalent of four kindergarten classes of kids die from chicken pox, so this is still a lethal disease. now the idea that you can transfer lollipops is not very sound. i'm not sure there's much virus in. >> hepatitis. >> this woman is practicing medicine without a license.

>> not in a million years. >> it's creepy. you cannot send in theory a disease over the mail. >> right. >> what's wrong with people? >> donny says what's wrong with people? why is this desperation out there? >> we're afraid of getting a shot. it's really this anti-vaccination crazy stuff but the idea that you would purposely infect a lollipop to protect other children it's bad science. >> last two, should a woman take her husband's last name? >> no. >> 70% felt a woman should change her name at marriage. half woman said it should be a state law. >> never be a state law. you can't force anybody to be somebody they're not. >> you are once you marry him. >> no, you can make your choice. >> change his name. i don't understand this, you grow up with a name, your identity is your name. i go through medical school and i'm dr. snyderman. why would i change my name. donny snyderman, how does that sound? >> i can't get a word in today. >> it's women, get over it,

okay? >> how about we leave it up to each woman? if she wants to change her name great, if not fine. >> everyone seems to want to turn their brown eyes blue so we had fun with you. >> i already have blue eyes. >> donny, you already have blue eyes. star you're the odd people out. >> girl, i don't want to have blue eyes. >> ooh baby, look at you. >> what am i going to do? that air brushed picture of me? >> controversial style for black women. >> it's $5,000, no the approved. don't do it. >> on that note, dr. snyderman, coming up, if you make your gift list, we want you to check out the steals and deals. only for "today" viewers. first, these messages.

captions paid for by nbc-universal television hello, everybody. you made it to booze day tuesday, november 8, 2011. we are delighted you're with us. always big news around here. >> yes, it is. yesterday they announced the verdict of conrad murray at 4:00. the jury found him guilty of involuntary manslaughter. he showed no emotion at all. that stoic face. >> here is what was interesting.

while the judge is still talking about the sentence, he is getting handcuffed behind. it's almost as if the judge was saying, look, i'm taking this thing seriously. they didn't let him out on bail. >> they said they thought he might be a flight risk. >> right. they did now the question is how much time is he going to serve, right? he's got a four-year sentence. lately, we don't know what any of those sentences mean. >> thank goodness lindsay got out to make room for him. you know, involuntary manslaughter, so i guess they keep the heavy hitters in jail. you know what? california is pretty much bankrupt and they just had this decision recently that came down that said they had to let many, many prisoners be released because it was inhumane situations. >> you don't know how much time he'll actually spend in jail for that. i do think because the judge had

him cuffed and walked out and in going home, even if he doesn't spend the jail time because of overcrowding, i think the judge was trying to say, i'm taking this seriously, the guy is getting cuffed. it is a message. >> you heard one news report that someone wanted anonimity said he was on suicide watch. you must feel like life is over at that point? what kind of life will i have? i will forever be known as the person killing this beloved world-wide loved icon. >> yeah. it's one of those i think a lot of people were looking at this saying, should he have been charged with manslaughter? should it have been something like that? it's one of those things people are going to debate for a while. it's as if you're arresting and charging the pusher for killing the person who took the drugs. >> it takes both.

it takes the guy who sells them and the one who wants to buy them. so justice cannot be done. one is not around to see it. way were talking earlier. people say nothing is going to bring michael back to the family, but the truth is the family lost michael years ago. maybe not physically, but on that journey he was on. >> people think they are going to have closure. it was interesting when his sister was in the studio earlier and said she thought she would have relief and she didn't. you're saying earlier, that's a word overused, closure. >> you never get it when you lose somebody you love. this month will be nine years since my daddy passed away. there is not a day i don't miss him. i don't really want closure on that relationship. i don't want to stop feeling that kind of love. we talked about how everything you feel in life is commensurate with how much you are invested

we spend three to four hours every day resisting our urges, whether it's for food or sex or drinking or whatever. that's a lot of time. >> or all the above. >> those are actually the things, the things we resist the most are food, desire to take a break from work, desire to take a nap, sleep and have sex. not surprising there. what's interesting is that people who actually have stronger self-control spend lest time resisting. >> how did they get that self-control? >> they plan ahead. we have three trips in "prevention." the first is plan ahead. in life you have two options. you could play offense or defense. when it comes to will power, your best bet is always, always, offense. >> there are some people proactive by nature. other people are procrastinators. >> research shows we have the same amount of will power. we just allocate it differently. >> there are certain people we
