going to be hearing more from them coming up this morning. you're back out here after another morning on "today," on november 16, 2010, it started to rain, so we have gotten busy, that's the bottom line. however we have got a great crowd. we welcome all of them this morning, i'm ann curry along with al roker, this morning we're talking about this big news out of london, which is the announcement that kate middleton and prince william are getting married after months of speculation, basically she's been a long time girlfriend, they're going to officially tie the knot sometime in 2011. they announced their engagement this morning. although they got engaged in october while on holiday in kenya and this morning the palace says that william went through all the proper channels getting permission from kate's father and informing the queen. we'll get a live report coming up in this half hour. >> we did this a little while ago, jill martin has this great segment, these steals and deals,

she's sharing some deep discounts, when we did this the first time, we got a huge response and this time we got more of the same, fabulous jeans, juliewe jewelry, everyth. just for today's show. and we head to hoboken, new jersey to get a preview of some of the floats that will sail down broadway in macy's thanksgiving day parade. >> let's now start with the morning's top stories. good morning, ann and al, as ann mentioned, royal wedding watchers can finally block off their calendars was prince william and kate middleton are engaged to be married. jim maceda is at buckingham palace. and they're going to make an appearance for the first time as an engaged couple? >> we're expecting to have these pictures later on today of

prince william and soon to be, i guess princess katharine and possibly some day queen katharine will be posing together for the first time since that engagement in a few hours. now to give you a sense of what's happened today, everybody expected this, but when it actually was announced, it was a mad scramble here to buckingham palace. it was a very brief, four or five short paragraph statement coming from clarence house, from prince charles saying now delighted he was with the engagement. we're hearing that the wedding will happen sometime in 2011, spring or summer. there was a previous engagement that happened in october on a nice ten-day secret trip to kenya. the prince now is informing all the family members and following the marriage, the two will be living as a couple in the north part of wales, very close to the

raf base where he is a search and rescue pilot. >> thanks so much, jim. the nation's highest military honor will be given today to an army staff sergeant who placed himself in the line of fire in afghanistan. he is the first living veteran who has served in a war to receive the award since vietnam. pakistani intelligence say the death toll is up to 20 in this morning's u.s. drone attack. it was a travel region which is a base for insurgents link to attacks on afghanistan on u.s. and u.s. forces. zahra baker would have celebrated her 1 19 -- 11th birthday today. meanwhile the search continues today in central ohio for a missing mother, brother and family friend, though police say they likely are dead. the two women and 10-year-old boy vanished last wednesday,

along with 13-year-old sarah maynard, the teenager was found sunday bound and gagged in the basement of an ex-convict's nearby home. he has been charged with kidnapping. this is the first time cholera has ever hit haiti and now many locals are blaming the foreign peacekeepers for bringing the disease to the island. the number of americans who reported using food stamps last year was up by more than 5 million. that's a 19% increase. the usda also says more than 17 million households had trouble putting food on the table over the last year. and it's a story right out of law and order, 16th century edition, a team of international scientists has opened the tomb of an astrologer.

they believe he was poisoned. and spectators in mexico got a load of bull when this half ton beast decided he had had enough and launched into the stands. one bullfighter was injured when the animal landed on him, but the bull was returned to the ring and the fight went on as planned. it is now six minutes past the hour, let's go back to al. >> i think he just finally said, i'm just getting out of here. this cannot end well for me, i'm getting out. what's your name, ma'am? >> lou. >> and would you share how old you are? >> do i have to? >> 87. >> you look fantastic. >> thank you. >> i'll have what she's having. let's check your weather and see what's going on. and i will show you our high for today, we have got a lot of wet weather making its way up the eastern seaboard, we have got tornado watches in the panhandle of florida, heavy rain anywhere from one to two inches of rain

from as far west as memphis, up into buffalo and parts of new england. and you can see in the west, we have got a storm system coming onshore, a clipper will be bringing some snow to the cascades, wasatch mountain ranges, all the way down to colorado we're talking about anywhere from six to 12 inches of snow and this young lady, 80 years old today. what's your name? >> manilla? >> we are off to a wet start this tuesday. to yourself as much extra time as you can read the rent will be with us off and on all through the night.

>> and another bit day girl. all right. ann? all right, al, thank you. as you may have heard, the world is waking up this morning to the news that a royal wedding is in the works. britain's prince william is set to wed kate middleton next spring or summer. the royal editor of the sunday express, camilla, good morning. >> good morning. >> i know this news has been out for several hours, gauge for us the reaction so far in britain. >> well, i would say it's been somewhat frenzied. we're down at buckingham palace surrounded by media organizations trying to get every cough and spit out of this amazing story. we have known it's been coming, it's been nine years in the making, but the day it's going to be announced is a special one, not only for britain but also the world. we're seeing that now, there's a lot of excitement down at buckingham palace this morning. >> why do you think the announce is being made today given that

the engagement we understand happened back in october, the two have known each other for something like nine years, is there something about the timing today that would make it interesting? >> well, i think perhaps the timing has been timed to coincide with prince william's return from afghanistan. he was out there for remembrance sunday which is a very important occasion across the world and it went from one good news story to another. what surprised me about the announcement is that it is an october engagement not february. when they announce their engagement, they announce much closer than the wedding. the question is kate going to end up at christmas dinner with the royals? >> what is expected in terms of the wedding? are we expecting a large, flashy wedding of the sort of diane-charles kind of caliber? >> well, by implication, you know, it's going to have to be quite a grand affair. however, obviously, we're all

living proof of austere times and hard times across the world. we're aware of that and they're aware of that in britain. we're talking about prince william marrying kate, it's the biggest royal wedding since charles and diana, there's going to be a huge guest list so it can't really be a quiet affair between the two of them. it's going to be a global occasion. >> people in this country don't really have a strong sense about kate middleton, what can you tell us beyond the fact that she has sort of middle class roots? >> she isn't an aristocrat, she's a bit like the girl next door, she's been described like a classic english rose, there are similarities perhaps between her and diana, they're clothes

horses, they're at home on the king's road. but we don't know much about kate because she's remained extremely elusive, she's been very december secret, very loyal to william, she has never talked out of school so to speak. we want to hear more from kate middleton, how will she camp out her own rose. she might be like a michelle obama figure, she's not just going to be the wife of william. she might just be her own professional woman in her own rite. we'll see how she wants to handle this huge position she's now found herself in. >> beyond the kmimt excitement royal affair and a wedding, really what we're looking at is the future face of the monarchy, the young future face that will take us into the future. i'm saying that redundantly, but i think you know what i'm trying to say. >> they are the face of the royal family. by the time that prince charles

is going to take the throne, that could be ten, 15 years from now, and charles is going to be an old man. but we're all interested in the jazzier celebrity factor stars of the royal family and that is william and kate and i think as they go on in their marriage, they have children, there will be huge interest around them and really they are the future. i think even majesty the queen knows that, she knew that it was very important that william marry the right girl, she doesn't want a repeat of the charles and diana years, she doesn't want anymore divorces in the royal family. they have announced their engagement now and they're going to carry a lot of responsibility for the popularity of the royal family into the 21st century definitely. >> i'm happy that william has found happiness. still to come, from the

carrot juice. >> what's your question for joy? >> when picking up fruit juice like cranberry juice, is it better to select 100% fruit juice that's more in calories. >> i always prefer 100% fruit juice because you're going to end up getting the naturally occurring ant anti-oxidants from the fruit juice you pick. when it's not 100% fruit juice, they take out some of the fruit and put in artificial sweeteners. now we have the problem, that's pure 100% fruit juice of a lot of calories and a lot of sugar

and that could be problematic for people who are trying to lose weight or who have diabetes. buy the 100% fruit juice and when you're pouring it in your glass, dilute it with about 50% water, club soda or selzer. and you'll have a sweet taste and not a lot of gunning. and sometimes it takes a little while to acclimate to a beverage that's a little less sweet. but it's so well worth trying to acclimate to that taste, it's a big service to your body. >> next question comes from merrill. what's your question for joy? >> caller: i have heard that baby carrots contain less beta

carrotine. is that true? >> that's true. they're not actually baby carrots the reason they have less is that baby carrots are carved from carrots from deliberately bred to ripen more quickly and the result is less beta carrotine. even though it has less, it still has a significant amount. beta carrotine is great for our skin, our eyes and our overall health. if you're concerned about getting enough, if you do enjoy eating the baby carrots is to cook them, baby carrots is one of the few vitamins that becomes more readily available to the body when the vegetable is heated. you can microwave it, you can steam it, you can even cook them and puree them in soups. >> watch out for that loose beta

carrotine. >> mickey writes, i heard that people who are lactose intolerant can still eat yogurt and cheese without symptoms, is that true? >> oftentimes it is true. but it's case by case because lots of people have different levels of tolerance or intolerance. lactose intolerance occurs when your body doesn't produce enough lactace. hard cheeses like swiss and cheddar hardly have any lactose at all. so most people can enjoy them, even people with a lactose intolerance. the softer cheeses tend to have more lactose so you want to be careful of that. when it comes to yogurt, yogurt has a lot of lactose, but it also has live cultures which are healthy bacteria that help us

actually digest the lactose. >> it count of counter acts the other effects? >> some people with lactose intolerance with eat yogurt and some can't. so test your personal tolerance on a day when you're at home. coming up next, just in time for the holidays, the hottest high-tech toys the entire family will love. that's cute. first these messages. ♪ eggland's best eggs. the best in nutrition... just got better. even better nutrition -- high in vitamins d, e, and b12. a good source of vitamin a and b2. plus omega 3's. and, 25% less saturated fat than ordinary eggs. but there's one important ingredient that hasn't changed: better taste. better taste. better taste. yum!
