interrupted president obama last week. we'll tell you what the reporter is saying about the incident and talk about the concept and dynamic with "today's" professionals. they will have a lot to come about that. remember max page, start of the darth vader volkswagen ad? he's waking up at home for the first time since his open-heart surgery last week. before he went to the hospital he sat down to talk to us about the procedure, how he's feeling. we'll get to hear from him coming up. good news. we begin this morning, tuesday morning, with a question, at the jerry sandusky trial, will sandusky himself take the witness stand. michael isikoff at the courthouse. michael, good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning, matt. jerry sandusky faces the decision of his life today, whether to testify in his own defense as his sex abuse trial race toss a finish. jerry sandusky continues his defense today after monday's emotional testimony from the

prosecutor's final witness, the mother of one of his alleged victims. the woman testified she was initially excited when sandusky, a very important person, she said, offered to take her son for weekend visits. sobbing, she testified her son wanted to stop going to sandusky's home but she never knew why. i would ask him why and he'd just say he didn't feel like it and i'd make him go anyway. you still didn't know specifically what happened to him, said the prosecutor. no, i don't. i just can't imagine. do you feel responsible? yes, do i. last week her son, known in court documents as victim nine, and now 18 years old testified he was repeatedly sexually assaulted in sandusky's home over a three-year period. how are you supposed to tell your mom something like that? he said. >> this was the only mother to testify. her testimony had a resonance for jurors as parents in a way that maybe the victim's testimony himself did not.

>> reporter: later sandusky's lawyers began his defense calling a string of character witnesses including another penn state assistant coach dick anderson who said the defendant had a wonderful reputation in the community. anderson also said that as a coach, he, too, had often showered with young boys after sports. did you hug them? the prosecutor asked. no, i did not. a consultant to sandusky's charity said he saw mutual admiration between children and sandusky. i saw a lot of goofing around. jerry had a very unique way and many of us were inspired to how he could relate to youth of all ages. but none of the defense witnesses spoke directly about the sex abuse allegations against sandusky. >> i don't think today there was one whole hope in the prosecution case. >> reporter: the defense lawyers do plan to argue the alleged victims and their lawyers are motivated by hopes of raking in big bucks from civil lawsuits. they do have to decide very quickly whether to take the biggest risk of all, putting

sandusky himself on the witness stand. now, the defense may also introduce evidence that some of sandusky's behavior is caused by a rare psychiatric malady called histrionic personality disorder. but either way the defense has said it now plans to rest by midday wednesday, meaning this case could go to the jury as early as thursday. matt. michael isikoff, thank you very much. an attorney, former prosecutor, psychiatrist gail saltz, a "today" contributor. good morning. let's start where he left off, histrionic personality disorder, defense filed a motion saying they might bring it up in testimony. just real quickly, what is it? >> ongoing pattern of behavior where you need to be the center of attention, overall dramatic relationships, sometimes you're overly seductive and you think

they are closer than they actually are. >> as a psychiatrist, would you argue someone with histrionic personality disorder would be unable to tell the difference between right and wrong, legal and illegal, especially when it dos behavior around young boys? >> this diagnosis has no bearing on your moral compass, your ability to understand what's legal. it has nothing to do with being a pedophile. it has nothing to do with sexual behavior toward children. >> not putting your lawyer's hat on you right now but in terms of a psychiatrist's hat, this would be a stretch in your opinion. >> this would be an incredible stretch so much that it disturbs some of my colleagues they are bringing i up. >> will they bring it up? congratulations i'm making you the defense attorney. will they go there? >> no. they are basing this on ambiguous language and letters written to one of the victim, excessive caring and clingy and trying to boot strap that into the argument that he was not a

manipulating dominating sexual predator. >> if they were to go there, and this is hypothetical, if they were to go there, wouldn't they be in some ways admitting that he did all these things and then say but here is the reason why. why would they want to take that tactic? >> i don't understand at this point. in all the witnesses defense has shown a mainstream guy's guy, doesn't fit the profile at all a jury is just going to say hired gun, not worth the weight it's given. it's going to be largely disregarded. >> again, putting the defense attorney's hat on you. you have just sat through listening to the prosecution, a couple of weeks of withering testimony, unsettling, disturbing, graphic testimony. how do you go about in what seems to be a short case you're going to present convincing the jury they have not heard the real story about jerry sandusky. >> i think they just have to say none of it is factual, didn't happen, never went on. they have to do that by showing

the times, the events, the places were all sort of vague and they couldn't nail down the details, therefore you have to ignore it. >> so if it comes to that decision of saying do we take, do we roll the dice and do we put jerry sandusky on the stand to defend himself, do they have anything else they can go on? might they actually take that course? >> i don't think so. from a practical sense, the time they are going to be done wouldn't have the time to testify, he's got the costas interview, the letters he's written, too much empeachment testimony to put him on the stand. >> we'll wait to see what actually does happen. we're hearing the defense will rest by tomorrow. thank you so much. it's eight minutes past the hour. here is ann. >> now we're hearing the jailhouse phone call between george zimmerman and his wife. they recorded days before the

bond hearing in the trayvon martin case. kerry, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, ann. in the six calls that lasted an hour and 33 minutes, we hear george zimmerman in jail talking to his wife. they talk about money. they talk about their safety but they never talk about the shooting death of trayvon martin. for the first time we're hearing newly released recording of phone calls between 28-year-old george zimmerman and his wife shelley. the calls made while zimmerman was in jail accused in the shooting death of 17-year-old trayvon martin. prosecutors a little the couple conspired to shift money to zimmerman's sister's account. the money, prosecutors say, came from an account allegedly funded by a website that raised over $135,000 for zimmerman's defense. prosecutors say they believe the conversations captured a rudimentary code where 10 is really 10,000.

>> so take your ten out first to keep in your pocket. >> uh-huh. >> and then at the institution see if you can put ten into hers right away. >> uh-huh. >> and see if she can take ten, that ten out, and put it in the box there. >> reporter: at zimmerman's bond hearing in april, his wife testified the couple had limited funds. the judge saet $150,000 bond unaware of the defense fund. it's the jailhouse conversation that convinced the judge to revoke zimmerman's bond and send him back to jail. >> he established his credibility. i think he can rehabilitate that with his apology to the court. i think we'll move on from there. don't forget his credibility is of some relevance. much more important are the facts of the case. >> for her part, shelley zimmerman is charged with perjury for lying to the judge at the bond hearing. in much of the jailhouse phone conversation, a devoted wife

supports her husband. >> don't worry cutie. don't even worry. >> ah, man, that feels good. that there are people in america that care. >> yeah, they do, trust me. >> reporter: at one point they talk about making sure george is safe if he makes bond. they talk about hiding him in a car as it leaves jail. >> you could always like lay down or something. >> yeah, exactly. well, i have my hoodie. >> uh-huh, uh-huh. true. >> reporter: there's confidence in those calls that george zimmerman will eventually walk free. >> after this is all over, you're going to be able to just have a great life. >> we will. >> yeah, we will. >> reporter: george zimmerman during the call also tells his wife that he's taking his medication, which includes an

antidepressant and atoral commonly used for adhd and he says during the conversation to get bulletproof vest for him, his wife and their attorney, for their safety. >> thank you for your reporting on this. >> let's get a check of the top stories. natalie is behind the news desk. natalie, welcome back. >> thank you matt and ann. world leaders at the g-20 summit are trying to show a united front as they draft a plan to spur economic growth. nbc's chief correspondent and political director chuck todd in loss c los cabos. chuck, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. most will be on figuring out how the european debt crisis doesn't trigger a global recession. so far it's a meeting between mr. obama and russian president vladimir putin that's been the biggest headline of the summit so far.

turned into a nightmare when one boy was rushed to a hospital after a spear gun went off accidentally. on monday doctors revealed the tale of how they saved a miami teenager after a freak fishing accident left him with a giant fishing spear through the head. >> we used a high-speed drill to drill the bone at either end to create an opening to remove the spear. the first order of business was to try to get the spear cut off and do the test without having it move on us. we were able to plan the surgery rationally, position him left side down, right side up. then we were able to open a large incision. >> reporter: nearly two weeks ago 16-year-old yasser lopez was fishing with a friend. the boys were loading a three-foot spear gun when it accidentally went off and hit lopez right above his right eye. the force was so strong it knocked lopez into the water. his friends called 911. he was conscious when he was

airlifted to the hospital. >> very shortly after he arrived, he started to become agitated and kind of, i don't know, for lack of another word panicky. we didn't know if that was a result of the injury to his brain or scared, in a lot of pain. but he was awake and interacting with us. >> reporter: dr. george garcia treated lopez on his arrival. he said the single best indicator he would survive, he remained lucid throughout. >> i thinkel do well, he was speaking to the paramedics. made me hopeful from the beginning. pretty lucky boy. >> reporter: in the end a series of three miracles kept the teenager alive. the side in which the spear gun entered his head, the fact it missed important blood vessels, also important structures of the brain. >> could have gone either way. i think just incredibly fortunate, a constellation of circumstances that came through in this amazing, freaky way. >> as of monday lopez was only

able to speak to doctors in short sentences. according to dr. garcia, suffer from posttraumatic amnesia and will probably never remember the accident. that might be a good thing. he'll see the video over and over but won't remember what happened. >> thanks so much, tamron. details emerging about the upcoming memoir of rielle hunter. she writes unflattering things about his late wife elizabeth. details on that. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. rielle hunter's new book is apparently more than just a play by play of john edwards fall from political grace and hunter's role in it. the tell-all includes blistering images of elizabeth edwards. >> a kiss monday from john edwards for rielle hunter, his former mistress and the mother of his child. thursday edwards shared a laugh

when his corruption trial ended in no conviction edwards blamed only himself for his downfall. >> there is no one else responsible for my sins. none of the people who came to court and testified are responsible. nobody working for the government is responsible. i am responsible. >> reporter: edwards did not mention hunter on the courthouse steps that day. the associated press reveals at the end of the book hunter writes about romantic feelings she has for the man she affectionately calls johnny. in 2010 she tells oprah she tells loves him. >> has he ever told you he lovers you. >> yes. it's my experience he loves me. >> hunter writes, i have a deeper understanding of him as a dad and as a person who puts his children first. and i believe he has more respect and deeper appreciation of me now. >> i'm not sure what the audience for this book will be. we'll see if there's an appetite

back now at 7:43 with a warning about a danger at some of our nation's beaches. experts have issued an alert about powerful rip currents. nbc's kerry sanders with more on this story. kerry, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, ann. again today the national weather service says there is a high probability for rip currents here in new smyrna beach, florida, also corpus christi, texas, and lake michigan. the problem is you can't see a rip current. often that silent threat can be deadly. along the atlantic coast more than just strong surf and invisible threat. on sunday lifeguards rescued dozens of swimmers from powerful rip currents in new smyrna

beach. it was all too much for a 14-year-old boy trapped by a rip current. he drowned. nearby ormond beach same thing as a 66-year-old man drowned. rescuers couldn't get to him in time. >> lifeguards pulled him to shore eventually. they did rescue efforts, cpr, and they were unable to bring him back. >> reporter: more than 100 swimmers die every year from the current. this rescue caught on tape by the reality tv show, "ocean force." among the survivors now warning beachgoers of the hidden threat, 17-year-old erica hernandez. five years ago she was trapped in a rip off the east coast of florida. >> i was going to die. i remember seeing this man say to me, i was on his shoulder and i was screaming, i'm going to die, i'm going to die. it was terrifying. >> reporter: erica survived, but only because of the heroic efforts of a bystander, john carlos. >> he's a hero, but he was a

hero before that to me. he was my child. >> reporter: his mother olga is torn by her only child's heroism that day, the 31-year-old everyone called j.c. saved erica. as he lifted her to safety and another bystander took her to shore, jl c. was pulled down by the same rip current. >> when i see your son, i see a very strong man. >> he's a good swimmer. yes, he was. very strong, very athletic, very fit. >> reporter: strong, fit, but no match for mother nature. created by shifting sand, the powerful rip current pulls a swimmer directly away from shore. it's usually the exhaustion of trying to swim against that rip, combined with panic, that causes a swimmer to drown. the best advice if you're caught in a relationship, try to swim parallel to the beach. but experts say sometimes that's easier said than done. you during the last year, this

lifeguard has rescued more than 100 swimmers. >> when you rescue someone and revive them, what do they tell you. >> they had no idea how strong it could come or there were currents that day. the most important thing i can tell everybody is just swim in front of a lifeguard tower. there's somebody there to help you. >> reporter: that's a big problem. there are no lifeguards where people are swimming. i have biodegradable cookies to show where a rip current is. if you see green in the water, there's no rip current here because it it would be pulling straight out. >> excellent information about how to protect from rip currents. thank you so much. coming up next the royal family takes part in an ancient ritual as the duchess of cambridge celebrates her husband's birthday right after this. ♪

and art professor understands the risk. >> sabina was a very good student. i imagined law as a possibility. it would be great if she managed to become a working actor. if not, i know that she'll land on her feet. >> for sabina, moving back in with her mom, stepdad and little sister was not without complications. >> i fall back into my high school and my childhood self. it's only all of a sudden that i'll realize, i'm 23. why do i need to tell you where i'm going tonight. truthfully, i probably don't respect the fact that she's 23 as much as i might. i just treat her like i always treated her. she probably treats me the way she always treated me. >> sally, the author of "slouching towards adulthood" observations from the not so empty nest. a psychologist specializing in family relationships. good morning to both of you. >> nice to be here. >> nice to have you here.

you really became interested in this, sally, when your own 25-year-old son moved back in after graduating from college. then it got really interesting. >> it got interesting. at first i was extremely excited about it. then when it seemed like he wasn't that excited about looking for a job and had been offered a job but wasn't quite perfect, then it was one shout short of an intervention before he was out the door. >> we talked earlier in this piece about the economy. you say beyond the economy. there's something else going on. what is it, exactly? >> there's no doubt people who are 22 to 35 have gotten the short straw in the economy. they have also been parented very differently. concierge parents, you used that phrase the other day. parents have become very ov overinvolved in their children's lives, tended to treat them a

much different way than parents treated themselves. you find people not capable of living on their own or such a high level of creature comforts they don't want to be on their own. they would rather be in their parents home with cable television and meals done for them. they aren't living like adults. >> do you buy this deal we've done too much as parents, helping them we haven't helped ourselves. >> we have done too much as parents as far as being very involved. there's lots of reasons for this. we have a whole different technological world than we did when we were younger. there's a lot of ease of connecting with one's child on a very regular basis, one's adult child. i also think we haven't been careful enough in teaching our kids to get out there on their own at early ages and make decisions on their own and take responsibilities and really become independent and learn the kinds of skills that we all need to live on our own and give them chances to fall.

we are there often to pick them up and help them in ways that are more than supportive. >> the question is why do we do this? because we need to be needed? >> often there is this need to be needed. kind of like co-dependency where people really want to be taken care of and aren't so easy -- aren't so willing to be launched as sally was referencing. also a need to be involved in our developing children's lives because it reflects on us, what they do, who they become. that's something we really need to think about, changing the patterns. >> quickly let's talk about changing solutions. sally, in your reporting, you say one of the things we need to do is make sure kids have a good sense of money. a lot of them have an out of whack sense of money. >> a lot of parents give children way too much. money represents self-esteem. if everything you own is provided by someone else, that diminishes your self-esteem. you have to encourage your children to take a lesser job or

to want less. >> okay. and basically, was there ever a time when you actually push a child out of the house. >> i think there are times. you don't want to push a child out who necessarily is going to totally land flat and not have the skills they need. you want to be able to help them know what they need to do to succeed. yes, there are times when you say, look, you really have to get out there in the real world, understand what it's about, work hard, make mistakes but try to have the skills -- try to teach your child the skills he or she they did to know in order to be able to succeed. but again, taking jobs that are not your ideal job, it's an important thing to do to be able to learn about the world and the world will teach you also what you need to know. >> encouraging independence, at the same time being aware of the pressures of the economy today. sally koslow, the book is called "slouching toward adulthood." you too, gayle.

back at 8:41. this morning on today's kitchen, how to be a better home cook. quick and easy recipes, this one for chicken. you can make it in 15 minutes. welcome back. >> thank you. >> this your go to recipe. >> i like to make it at a restaurant or at home. protein, chicken, crispy on the outside. can you use canola oil, so it's healthier, and a salad on top. >> when you were single, this would be the recipe you would go to. >> a wow dish. you can take breadcrumbs, day

old bread that's stale. make breadcrumbs by putting it in the food processor. >> maybe panko. >> yes. a japanese breadcrumb, that's fine. what you want to do is set up a station, so to speak. flour, egg, breadcrumbs in that order. make sure you single every single layer. >> you have to season every step. >> if you don't you'll have a bland derby. season with salt and pepper, flour, egg, breadcrumbs. you want to set it up so it's next to your pan. this is something a professional restaurant chef would do. >> okay. we're using chicken today. >> we're using chicken. >> the traditional is veal. >> the classic is veal. can you use chicken, turkey. if you wanted, you could use a sort of very thin piece of fish

as well. milaneanes milanese, breading. put it in canola. nice and crispy on the outside, cook over medium heat. >> when you talk about cooking, the reason it will cook quickly, you took the chicken breast and pounded it to a quarter inch. >> i didn't mention that. pound it a little bit. we don't want to pound it into submission, paper thin. there's something where you do that, like a minute steak of chicken, that's not what we're doing here. what you want to do is make sure it gets nice and crispy. that's exactly what you want to see. the breadcrumbs get golden brown and the chicken breast will cook, too. don't forget, this is chicken breast. it will cook quickly. not a lot of fat. >> cooking part, four to five minutes. >> maximum. three minutes on the first side. give it a turn, turn it down to medium and you'll have a perfectly cooked chicken breast. >> here is our chicken breast. this is fully cooked. nice and crispy on the outside.

what i do, i like to make a vinegarette. i use vinegarette as sauces all the time. dijon mustard and fresh lemon juice. want to pour olive oil for me. fire away. a little bit of olive oil. that's fine. a little bit of crushed red pepper there because i like everything spicy. here is the dressing. i pour the dressing over the chicken to give it a little moisture, then my salad, cherry tomatoes, arugula, it has a little pepper flavor. that's me. cherry tomatoes. we haven't come to the season where the beef steak tomatoes are tremendously good. that will happen in august. cherry tomatoes always seem to be good. you put this salad right on top of the chicken. to me, this is really like the perfect derby. this is something i could eat

all day long. >> fifteen minutes start to finish. >> nice and healthy. >> thanks, matt. appreciate it. >> up next, live performance from "bring it on" a ♪

unspecified reasons. but that she had made him go -- would make him go anyway. prosecutors have released the jailhouse phone calls between george zimmerman and his wife shelly as they allegedly attempted to hide money contributed for his defense through their website. zimmerman is facing a second degree murder charge in the shooting death of an unarmed black teen, trayvon martin. the records also show that on the day of zimmerman's arrest, contributions to his website surpassed $75,000 in a single day. the former rutgers university student convicted of spying is on his roommate with a web cam was released from jail this morning. dharun ravi served 20 days of a 30-day sentence. his roommate, tyler clement, committed suicide after his encounter was streamed in a live video. immigration officials say he will not be deported to his native india. police are searching for a man caught on tape vandalizing

good morning to all of you. >> good morning. >> dorothy, i know a lot of parents have done the same thing, but you waited until a particular weekend to recycle this computer tower. and when did you realize you had made a very bad mistake? >> well, max was away on a boy scout trip for the weekend. so when he came back on sunday, he was sick, he went to lay down, and started screaming that his cpu was missing. so that's when we realized. >> and max, can you show me? where did you hide the money in the tower here? >> well, i had a cup -- like a coffee cup that i had more money than the wallet actually hidden right in there, and then i had my wallet in a plastic bag. it's so dusty. >> why were you hiding your money? >> hiding it from my twin sister, drew. >> nice. i think she is here. so you had to find the sneakiest place to hide it. so when you found out this was missing, i mean, what was your

reaction? >> i was really upset that, like -- because it's all my money. i was upset that it was missing. i was kind of mad at myself, because a few weeks before, i had told her that i had my money in there, and she told she she was going to recycle it, but i didn't know it was so soon. >> so he told you the money was hidden in there. >> yeah, but life gets in the way. i said get it out, you know -- >> and it's dirty and you want to get rid of it. i've been there. i've done the same thing. so you're making frantic phone calls. as any mom would. to try to locate. what did you do, and how did you get connected here with jimmy? >> well, it was a series of phone calls, and it's funny, because i spoke -- a lot of women answered the phone in different departments, and they would go, aww, let me connect you to somebody. everybody was willing -- very willing to help. >> you were a mom in distress. >> right. >> this is your boy scout money, right? boy scout camp money? >> yeah. >> so i finally got in touch with the superintendent of

sanitation, and he said let me make some phone calls, it's an outside vendor. and that's how. >> and jimmy, i can only imagine. you've got 10,000 computers, parts in the warehouse that you're now looking through and saying, how am i going to find this one old cpu unit? so how did you go about tracking it down? >> i received an e-mail from the new york city department of sanitation, read the -- max's loss of life savings. put a little team together, explained the situation. they were all sympathetic. we looked, we were disappointed. we couldn't find it. and we were very happy for max's mom that she went the distance to recycle, so we wanted to go the distance to try to help out. so we -- after a little while, damian wilcox, one of the employees ran up to me, jimmy, jimmy, jimmy, i found it. i said you found what? he says, i found the boy's money. >> like a needle in a haystack, right? >> well, an organized needle in

a haystack. we went, we contacted max and his mom, we brought them down, we took them on a little tour of the facility. we showed them how recycling actually goes through the steps, so he's more educated and we just wish more people would recycle like max and his mom, because it's a good thing. and we wanted to go the distance as much as she did. >> max, dorothy, did you guys ever think you would get that money back? >> i never thought we were going to get it back. i thought it was gone forever. >> so now are you -- you're off to boy scout camp? >> yes. >> now that you have the money? >> actually, this year we already had paid for it. but i was saving that money for next year. >> okay, all right. dorothy, we learned an important lesson as parents, right? what did you take away from this? >> i guess to follow through. i followed through. >> well, you made the right wrong -- or the wrong right, rather. that's the important part. good to have you all here. and well done to your team,
