burger and linguine day. >> what are we going to do with that? >> yeah. get the nbc10 app for updates. back to his old ways? after days of taking the high road, donald trump takes a shot at hillary clinton's health. >> you think hillary would be able to stand up here for an hour and do this? i don't know. >> as clinton returns to the trail today and releases more of her medical records, trump brings his doctor's report to a tv medical show. >> your bmi is high. >> this morning, dr. oz joins us live. scandal grows. hackers releasing another batch of data, the private information from at least ten more american olympic athletes exposed. is there more to come? nbc news investigation. the canine teams the tsa relies on to sniff out explosives at some of the nation's busiest airports failing critical tests.

this morning what the agency is saying about those alarming results. and, too hot to handle. dramatic video of a car engulfed in flames. the owner claiming it was his samsung galaxy 7 phone that sparked the fire and the company once again urging customers to power down and trade in their devices "today," thursday, september 15th, 2016. >> announcer: from nbc news, this is "today" with matt lauer and savannah guthrie, live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. good morning, everybody. welcome to "today," it is a thursday morning. we got willie in for matt this morning. so much unusual about this campaign. add another thing. here we have a candidate for president releasing medical records. that's normal. but doing it on a tv show. >> dr. oz is here. he's in the building. he's going to tell us exactly what was in the papers handed to him by donald trump and give his assessment of trump's health in

just a few minutes. the state of the race today, with the election now in 55 short days, after her bout with pneumonia, hillary clinton returns today to the campaign trail. her first stop -- north carolina. she'll also join president obama for an awards gala in washington. donald trump starts his day right here in new york before heading to a rally in new hampshire later. his appearance on the dr. oz show opening up about his health actually airs today. a new poll shows trump leading among likely voters in the key state of florida. he's topping secretary clinton by three points there. 47%-44%. we've got it all covered. let's start with nbc national correspondent peter alexander. we'll talk to dr. oz in a moment as well. peter, good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning. hillary clinton back on the campaign trail today. it couldn't come too soon nor democrats with donald trump for the first time in this race really gaining momentum. within the last 24 hours, we've seen another clear contrast between these two candidates and their campaigns on strategy and

transparency. with clinton releasing detailed medical records to the public, donald trump releasing more limited information to dr. oz. donald trump in ohio while hillary clinton's recuperating at home. taking new shots at his opponent's stamina. >> i don't know, folks. you think hillary would be able to stand up here for an hour and do this? i don't know. i don't know. i don't think so. >> reporter: but later adding -- >> in all fairness, she's lying in bed getting better. we want her better, back on the trail. >> reporter: in flint, michigan, trump interrupted by the pastor at an african-american church as he began to blast his rival. >> now hillary clinton -- >> mr. trump -- >> reporter: after three days off, clinton's back campaigning today. her doctor reported she's recovering well with antibiotics and rest. her campaign trying to reassure voters about her health releasing a fuller look at the

68-year-old's medical history. clinton's physician detailing her medications, including one for her thyroid and a common blood thinner prescribed after suffering multiple blood clots since 1998. her doctor concluding clinton remains healthy and fit to serve as president of the united states. and for the first time adding with be she is in excellent mental condition. for her former reality tv star rival, a more flashing reveal with tv physician dr. oz. >> why not share your medical records? why not -- >> well, i have really no problem in doing it. i have it right here. i mean -- should i do it? >> reporter: sharing the results of a recent physical. his diet, trump favors fast food, he told oz, because he says he knows what's in it. his workout routine, all those hand gestures during speeches, he joked. >> you're 6'3", 236 pounds. in my mind i'm thinking your body surface area and your bmi is high. >> yeah. if i had one thing, i'd like to

lose weight. it's tough because of the way i live. but the one thing i would like to do is be able to drop 15, 20 pounds. >> reporter: underscoring the importance of this conversation about the candidates' health, the fact that if elected, donald trump would be the oldest first-term president ever at age 70. hillary clinton the second-oldest. she turns 69 next month. but both these candidates really hoping the pass of their travel, their campaigning, will demonstrate that they each have the endurance needed to serve. >> peter alexander, thank you. let's bring in dr. oz. good morning. seems like it was a genuine surprise him handing you this piece of paper with medical results. didn't give you a big chance to really look at it before land. was that a disadvantage? or could you tell just by looking right then and there whether it was legit and xree hence sniff. >> the letter is a typical document one physician would give another regarding a patient. every time i see a patient i get

letters like that. you process them pretty quickly. it was a comprehensive battery of tests. some from last week. other tests he's had traditional screening tests, colonoscopies, with hard scans, and the like. i invited both candidates on to the show. mr. trump agreed to come. i was surprised when he produced the records. all i really wanted to do was the checklist of the typical things that a doctor would want to ask somebody. >> you asked additional questions. >> head to toe, just give me a quick idea what's going on in every part of your body. i wanted to try to help with some clarity with the help of the candidates. again, i'm hoping secretary clinton will accept the invitation. but we are a much more informed country today than we were yesterday about the health of our candidates. >> a lot of people expected donald trump to release these publicly. are you able to say with your reputation, the trust people have new, unqualified that donald trump is healthy enough

to be president? >> the records that i got, without question, indicate he's healthy enough to be president. if i as a doctor had a patient like him, i would think -- say he is in good health for a man of his age and i would send him on his way. i think that's again reflective of the fact that he's had appropriate screening throughout the years. i did not do the tests myself so i can't confirm that the data was all right but the summary is clear. >> i think people expect the standard to be a little higher for somebody that wants to be president rather than a routine check-up for someone who would come in to your office, wouldn't you like to see more of the health records or perform some of the examinations yourself? >> he had a stress test done on his heart. that's the test a ceo of a company would get. the letter i read would be typical for a person that's running a company. i think that's pretty parallel. n not exactly the same but what you need to know if somebody is healthy enough to lead you. >> some people looked at this and said what is a presidential candidate doing on a tv doctor

show. were you concerned at all about being, for lack of a better word, kind of used in that way? >> well, i invited both candidates to come on a month ago. mr. trump agreed last week so, long before secretary clinton became ill. the invitation to her is still open. but i am a real doctor. i still practice medicine. i have a show that reaches millions of people, especially folks who are focused on the health topic. i think it is a very logical thing. why not release it on a show that talks to people every day about health and have some context put on the results? you're not just throwing a bunch of numbers in a newspaper or a reporter. you are actually with a doctor who can guide you through what it means. >> dr. oz, thank you. check your local listings for the show today. also this morning, we're learning more about that cyber attack targeting former secretary of state colin powell. his e-mails published online revealing scathing takes on both donald trump and hillary clinton. and now trump is responding. nbc's andrea mitchell has the

latest. >> reporter: good morning, willie. new concerns this morning that russia may have been involved in that hacking of colin powell's e-mails. a senior federal law enforcement official telling nbc news that u.s. authorities now believe that the website that obtained powell's e-mails has direct ties to russian intelligence. >> reporter: overnight donald trump fighting back, tweeting "i was never a fan of colin powell after his weak understanding of weapons of mass destruction in iraq. disaster." it comes as powell is caught in the middle of presidential politics. a trove of personal i males hacked revealing devastating criticism of donald trump and even surprisingly tough comments about hillary clinton. in a july 2014 e-mail, powell who had endorsed president obama reveals he's not sure about supporting clinton. powell writing, i would rather not have to vote for her, although she is a friend i respect. describing her as having a long track record, unbridled

ambition, greedy, not transformational. powell then used crude language in referencing tabloid reports about bill clinton. and in march of 2015, powell e-mailed a clinton backer about how hard hillary clinton was pushing herself. on hdtv she doesn't look good, he wrote. she is working herself to death. in an e-mail last month, powell turned his focus to donald trump telling a former aide, "all his lies and nonsense just pile up." and dismissing trump's outreach to black voters saying, "he takes us for idiots." in e-mails this summer, powell also called trump an international pariah and a national disgrace. he called trump advisor retired army lieutenant general michael flynn right-wing nutty. so far, neither campaign has responded to nbc news' request for comment. the e-mails released as part of the hack were obtained by d.c. leaks. a senior federal law enforcement official now telling nbc news that u.s. authorities suspect

the russians either created d.c. leaks outright or are using it for their own ends. >> russia is able not only to use cyber tools but information warfare to influence. that's something significant. it's strategic. and it's different. >> reporter: and this latest cyber attack comes just days after a cyber attack against the dnc which released numbers, cell phone numbers, including tim kaine's personal cell phone number. if this is proved, it would be the first known attempt by a foreign power to interfere with an american election. willie and savannah? >> andrea mitchell, thank you. after hammering parts of florida, remnants of tropical storm julia now slowly moving up the southeastern coast bringing more heavy rain. dylan is on that story this morning in for al. >> yes, we did have tropical storm julia. now it is a tropical depression but it did produce a lot of rain, especially across south carolina. take a look at charleston where cars are trying to drag through some of those flooded streets. again, never recommended. so they did shut down some of the roads because of the flash

flooding. charleston picked up just over 3 1/2 inches of rain but other parts of south carolina received as much as 5 1/4 inches of rain. now the good news is this storm is going to continue to move east at only 2 miles per hour though. it will sit and linger for the next couple of days. winds are up to 35 miles an hour. we do have some bands of rain but nothing too heavy. the heaviest rain will stay out over the water. over the next several days, while we aren't going to see a lot more additional rain with it, we could see minor coastal flooding at the time of high tide because all of this water will continue to push onshore, especially in south and north carolina. here is the bull's-eye for the heaviest rain. you see out over the water. but we still could see an additional half-inch, up to an inch of rainfall, especially along the coast of north carolina, but it is really at this point more the rip currents and minor coastal flooding that's the concern. >> dylan, we'll check back with you in just a second for the rest of the forecast. a suspect is behind bars this morning in connection with the arson fire earlier this week at a florida mosque once

attended by the gunman in the pulse nightclub attack. nbc's kerry sanders is following that investigation for us. kerry, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, willie. the sheriff says the man who set fire to this mosque is 32-year-old joseph shriber. he lives in a town called port st. lucie. but this morning he is being held in jail, without bond, charged with arson and what's known as hate crime enhancement. his social media is filled with anti-islamic sentiments. this morning, deputies in st. lucie county say the man who set fire to this mosque has been caught. he's 32-year-old joseph shriber -- the same man authorities see running from the mosque on this surveillance video. just seconds after flames lit up the house of worship. deputies took him into custody on the street wednesday afternoon without incident. >> he was on the radar because of a tip from a community member. >> reporter: authorities say he

had multiple anti-islamic posts and comments on his facebook page. a july 12th posting reads, if america truly wants peace, safety and the pursuit of happiness, they should consider all forms of islam as radical. all islam is radical, and should be considered terrorists and criminals. schriber who is jewish attended temp temple bethel, but he was not a member of the congregation. >> he was very kind, very open and very accessible. >> reporter: a representative of the muslim community says they are relieved schriber has been caught. >> we will not judge this person based on what religion they are because we know that it doesn't speak on behalf of his religion. >> reporter: at the home where de detectives say he lived with his parents, they gathered evidence, secluding this motorcycle, which

investigators say is consistent with the one caught on video a short distance from the mosque the night of the fire. meanwhile this morning, much of the mosque is just a burned-out shell. >> this was harmful to the community. this was a place of worship and it was very important for the community that we brought this individual to justice. >> reporter: the hate crime enhanced arson charge here carries a maximum 30-year sentence if convicted. but because schriber has been convicted on felonies before, he faces what's known as a habitual offender charge which could land him in prison for the rest of their life. his parents are said to be in shock but have had no contact. >> kerry sanders, thanks. other news now. world anti-doping agency has suggestion hackers have released a second batch of confidence medical information. the group calls itself fancy bears and it published the data of it 25 athletes from eight countries, including the u.s. the group alleges the athletes

had taken banned substances. however, the documents appear to be related to so-called therapeutic use exemptions which allow athletes to take prohibited substances if they have a verified medical need. on tuesday medical information of gymnast simone biles and also tennis stars venus and serena willia williams. more fallout over north carolina's soen had called bathroom bill. all acc championships will be moved out of north carolina for this academic year. that includes the conference's football championship scheduled for charlotte in december. the decision comes two days after the ncaa announced it is pulling championship events out of that state. it's all a result of house bill 2, a state law that limits anti-discrimination protections for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people. a typhoon slammed into parts of southeastern china.

the typhoon knocked out power to almost 1 million homes there, shattered windows on tall buildings and disrupted water lines. the typhoon has been downgraded to a tropical storm and it is expected to weaken more as it moves north. back to that alarming video we showed you at the top of the show. a florida man says his cell phone exploded while he was driving. he pulled over, got out just in time as his car burst into flames. owner says it was a samsung galaxy 7, not the same one recalled recently over fire concerns. that's the samsung note 7. the company is telling note 7 owners to stop using their phones. it should be noted, fire officials have still not said what caused the car fire you are looking at right there. >> scary pictures. dylan is back with the rest of the forecast. what's shakeing? >> besides some of the rip currents in the southeast, we will see a really nice day in the northeast. we're done with the record breaking heat. we'll replace it with temperatures in the mid 70s.

>> you think hillary would be able to stand up here for an hour and do this? i don't know. i don't think so. >> in a tweet overnight, trump responded to harsh words aimed at him in hacked e-mails from colin powell saying the former secretary of state's understanding of weapons of mass destruction in iraq was a disaster. now to "today's" campaign moment. this hasn't happened in 100 years. this year the new hampshi"new h union leader" will not endorse the republican candidate for president. instead of backing donald trump, the union leader has given its nod to the libertarian in the race, gary johnson. the paper's publisher called johnson and his running mate a bright light of hope and reason in dark times. now to the curious case of a 6' 0 tall portrait of donald trump. nbc's hallie jackson is at trump tower with that story. hallie, good morning.

>> reporter: hey there, willie, good morning to you. as this morning, we learn a little bit more about where that portrait may be. here's why it matters. it could be one of the keys to an inquiry happening now into the trump foundation. today, the hunt for where it hangs. a 6'0" tall portrait of donald trump, now a symbol of new questions surrounding his non-profit. back in 2007, at a charity event at mar-a-lago, melania trump bid on a portrait of her husband created that night by speed painter michael israel. >> i remember the first bid was $10,000. then she graciously increased that bid to $20,000. >> reporter: a donation from the trump foundation was received. where is that portrait now? if it is at trump's house or one of his businesses, he could be violating irs rules buying himself a gift with his

philanthropy's money. >> the painting has to be used for charitable purposes. can't just be used to decorate donald trump's golf club or his house. it is important to know where the paint something now and how he's used it. the hair is really the star of this portrait and that's sort of done in these bright orange and kind of light brown strokes. >> reporter: now, he's trying to find it. people tweeting him pictures of other giant trump portraits. but so far, not the one in question. the trump campaign hasn't said where that is, but there is a new clue today. someone who tells the "post" he shipped it after that charity auction to trump national golf club in new york. the portrait, a political flash point. even for president obama pouncing. >> the other candidate's foundation took money other people gave to his charity and then bought a 6'0" tall painting of himself. he had the taste not to go for

the 1'0"-foot version. >> this is just standard operating procedure. i'm like a traffic cop. if someone drives by going 90 miles an hour, i have to give them a ticket. >> reporter: sniderman, a democrat, and trump have a history with each other. a top trump aide calling the ag's inquiry "a left-wing hit job designed to distract frcrood hillary's week." >> you paid for your own 6'0" portrait. just to come clean. >> it was very expensive. it was all done in diamonds. >> i'm shorter. mine was only 5'0". >> dylan, what's going on? >> we have to keep an eye out for some storms today. in the plains we have heavier thunderstorms now but nothing too severe. you can see the lightning just off to the east.

but this area through here that includes most of central and eastern nebraska where we could see large hail, damaging winds and also isolated tornadoes. we still have the risk from southern north dakota stretching all the way down into parts of texas where we could see some of those storms develop as well. this cold front will move eastward, these storms will fire up, minneapolis later on this evening and into tonight could even see heavier downpours, too. that could create some delays at the airports. by 5:00 friday, these storms are getting closer to areas like green bay, chicago and st. louis, too. as for rainfall, we're only looking at a widespread inch or two. but the bigger conrn willce meteorologist bill henley. a beautiful day ahead. still some lingers clouds this morning but we'll see lots of sunshine this afternoon. and look at these temperatures. 78 degrees in center city. the suburbs, low humidity.

they detect explosives. >> reporter: their mission is to keep bombs out of airports and off of airplanes. but we've learned canine teams at some big airports have failed certification tests dozens of times. the tsa says some failures are expected in a program with very high standards. but multiple failures at some airports raise questions about whether those teams have been training enough to be ready to protect you. at big airports, security officials count on canines to sniff out explosives. checking bags, cargo, even passengers. >> dogs have always been considered the gold standard in explosive detection. so when you're considered the best, you better be the best. >> reporter: but tsa records obtained by nbc news raise questions about some of the nation's top dogs. they show more than 50 times tsa-funded canine teams failed

certification tests. at ten large u.s. airports from january 2013 to june 2015. the most recent data available. the records show some teams failed to find explosives. others had too many false alarms that could lead to unnecessary airport evacuations. teams that fail are not allowed to work at airports again until they can pass. at washington dulles airport, records show canine teams assigned to protect the airport failed ten times in that two and a half year period. at love field in dallas, four tests failed. 21 tests failed at lax in los angeles. l.a. airport officials say trainers made changes and all teams passed more recent tests. >> the reality of it is, is that humans are fallible. canines are fallible. but we got to work every single day for 100% compliance. >> reporter: experts tell us canine teams are more likely to fail if they neglect training time. >> you need to convince that dog

that there is a reason to work. >> reporter: john pierce used to advise the tsa. he says in airportsing with dogs rarely find explosives, so unless they practice often with test explosives, they may lose interest. and without constant practice, canine handlers may fail to recognize the dog's cues. his advice -- >> train, train, train and train as you're going to work. >> reporter: that approach seems to be working at the nation's busiest airport in atlanta. >> ready to go to work? seek. >> reporter: records show canine teams there passed 97% of the time, including all atlanta police canine teams. they attribute their success to senior handlers who mentor younger ones. >> we train every single day. >> reporter: a 2013 congressional investigation found some canine teams were repeatedly not in compliance with tsa's monthly training requirement. since then, tsa says it's made

changes, including a new program starting this fall to hold airports more accountable for training. and at airports where teams failed multiple times, some experts hope more supervision and training will help. >> you don't get a do-over in real life. if that team misses an explosive device, then that's a device that can end up on an airplane. >> reporter: now just last night, tsa provided some updated numbers showing 93% of teams passed nationwide during the last six months of 2015. today, eight teams are decertified. 27 teams failed during that final six months of 2015. tsa will not say at which airports for security reasons. in a statement, the agency says, our canine teams are highly effective. if a team does not meet tsa's rigorous guidelines, it is decertified and restricted from working. the team must successful meet certification standards before returning to search duties. dog teams that are unable to return to tsa's high standards

rules. we'll give you fact and fiction on things you should be doing every single day. . >> i can hardly keep up. then, the incredible siri daly is here with an incredible one-pot dinner. plus a dessert made from a surprisingly healthy ingredient. weighing in on the protests rocking the nfl. making the sport safer. he'll tell us about his new book. >> aw! >> somebody's in love. >> aw, charlie. ow! >> willie, i don't know if you heard this lady behind me, she said, "excuse me, i can't see, sir." >> who do you want to say hello to? >> family in wisconsin. everybody in wisconsin. >> there you go. there you go. >> go badgers! >> let's get a check of the weather. and it is going to be a little chillier. no more record-high temperatures. that's for sure. we'll see temperatures on friday still in the mid 70s with a severe risk of storms moving

through the plain states and into the midwest, too. on saturday we'll see some of that heavy ye rain move into the eastern great lakes and eventually make its way to the northeast by the time we get into sunday. back through the northern plains on saturday, looks like a good start to the weekend. ends off nice, too, with temperatures in the 70s and 80s. we could see some much-needed rain across the northeast and into new england on sunday as . at cold front continues to good morning. i'm meteorologist bill henley. a beautiful day ahead. still some lingering clouds this morning but we'll see lots of sunshine this afternoon. and look at these temperatures. 78 degrees in center city. the suburbs low humidity and 77 for landsdale and upper 70s for eston with mostly sunny skies. new jersey a few lingering clouds, partly sunny skies, but still a nice warmup into the 70s. at the shore mostly cloudy and a sea breeze and low 70s this afternoon. smyrna with sunshine up to 76. have a great day. >> and that's your latest

forecast. it's been three and a half weeks since charlie joined us. in that short time he's already grown ten pounds, believe it or not. and now a true new yorker, charlie took his first taxi ride. glad he came back. but we've also learned that he loves bath time and he's getting used to being in the spotlight. we have olivia, our puppy raisr here. what are some other traits on charlie's resume? >> this week we introduced him to standing up on cue. he is also learning how to put his head through the vest when it is time to go to work. so those are two of the things we did this week. >> we don't know exactly in which way he will be helping a veteran when he finally finishes his training. what are some of the specific things are you working on this week to determine that? >> correct. this week we were working on a couple of hearing dog sounds. so charlie may go on to help a veteran who has experienced a hearing loss. and so he was introduced to the telephone, the smoke alarm and the door knock right now. charlie's just being encouraged

to recognize and acknowledge those sounds. but in the future, he will be able to identify the sounds, nudge his handler to alert him, and then take the handler to the source of the sound. >> charlie comes across as very lovable, very calm. does that help with the whole training process? >> he has a wonderful temperament and, yeah, he makes us look good. >> he loves his mate, carson. you guys were making out before. >> charlie is always asleep in the morning. olivia's like, no, you should have seen him 20 minutes ago. >> we love having you. thank you so much. keep up the good work. let's head inside to savannah and hoda. >> thank you, guys. ever feel like your beauty routine is just confusing? >> yes. >> we feel like that a lot. always seems like there is no new rules when it comes to putting on makeup. even washing your face. >> but how much is fact and how much is fiction? today.com's senior style editor is here to straighten us out on all these fac-- all things face.

>> is it fact or fiction you should wash your face twice a day? >> the answer is true. absolutely should. but there are a few caveats with it. use a cleanser like this so you can see how they're smooth, no beads. an exfoliator that has beads in it, this one actually has almond in it. >> should you use exfoliators every day? >> once or twice a week, tops. >> i like those scrubby once. >> you can irritate your skin if you do that. be careful. just once a week you should be fine. >> wash twice a day but and gentle cleanser, twice a day, morning and night. >> what about the contraptions they have? >> this is also a little bit confusing. depends on the bristles. it's really not soft like this. this is fine for twice a day. it is almost like an electric toothbrush. >> that feels so good on your skin. >> firmer brushes or something

that's a little bit tougher, that is an exfoliator. so it is used the same way. >> i basically use a welder on mine. >> if someone has oily skin, should you change your moisturizer? should you use it less often? >> you should actually use moisturizer. that's a common misconception. people feel like oily skin, you shouldn't moisturize. still moisturize. but there is a right way to do it. brooke is demonstrating. go from the outside and work your way in. the t-zone is the most oily. you want your dry parts on the outside to get the most amount of product. >> oh, that's interesting. >> this is the t-zone here? >> the forehead here, and the nose and chin. that's where a lot of the break-outs are, too. but really -- >> but are you using moisturizer for oily skin? >> yeah. i mean you can try a different kind of product. but definitely don't stop applying. if your skin is too dry it will break out. it is oily skin, too. it still needs moisturizer.

>> are you in the foundation department? >> i -- haven't we all been doing this since like 1922? if you want to test your foundation you put it on the inside of your wrist because it is supposed to match your face. is that true? >> you have to be careful. your skin down here is getting a lot off different sun than your face. i try this on my hands. it is going to look a lot different than what's on my jaw line. which would you choiose? >> this bottom matches. >> i'm wearing this one on my face. it is a completely different skin tone there. >> where is the spot you should test it? say you are in a store. >> always on your jaw line. try a little piece of skin here. try to blend it out a little bit. you'll see if it mixes right in there. >> okay. >> the last one, is it true or not that you should do when you put your makeup on, do your eye makeup first, then do your foundation?

>> that's true. everyone things they want to make their skin look completely clear first. but really with the powder it kind of goes everywhere. you can make a lot of mistakes. especially if if you're doing a fancy night out look. do your eye makeup first and you can always fix everything in the end with the concealer. >> in the morning when they do our makeup, they do foundation first, then the eyes. that's the way she rolls. >> but for people who are just novices, this would be the best. >> on the weekend when i try to do a smokey eye to go out to the cafeteria at 6:00, i do my eyes first because it gets all over. >> exactly. you can still wash your face even if you make a big mistake. >> check out "today's" pinterest page. we have a pinterest page? >> do you napchat? >> yes, i do. coming up, we'll get mike

lupica's take on the nfl. mike always moisturizes. big oil polluters. they have a friend in pennsylvania. millionaire pat toomey. toomey voted to protect their special tax breaks. saving oil companies twenty-four billion dollars. and big oil polluters have given toomey seven hundred thousand dollars in campaign contributions. tax breaks for them. campaign contributions for him. pat toomey. he's helping big oil polluters and millionaires. not the rest of us. lcv victory fund is responsible for the content of this advertising.

we are back now at 8:41 with the great mike lupica, one of the country's most prominent sports columnists abnd a best selling author. "last man out," we'll talk about in a second. but first let's talk about colin kaepernick, protests of the national anthem that have been going on for several weeks now. the nfl has effectively said we encourage our players to show respect, to stand for the anthem, but we support their right to kneel. how has the league handled this one? >> i think it handled it well. i think it will stop or they'll take a tougher stance when they start to think it is bad for business. i respect what he's done. i do. i don't think it's become a wave, a thing that's sweeping the country. but it is also not the freedom

marches. i think he really hurt his own cause, kaepernick did, by predating this, by wearing socks that depicted policemen as pigs. i think it works against what he's trying to say. and what bothers me, willie, about this thing is, i think other guys are joining in who aren't quite as passionate about this as kaepernick is and they're sort of treating it like it is the ice bucket challenge. you know? so it is a big complicated nuanced story. but you have to respect his beliefs and his right to do it. >> another big topic in the nfl, matt had an exclusive interview with commissioner goodell yesterday in which the commissioner announced a $100 million program to make football safer, not just in the nfl but all the way down the line to junior football. the nfl clearly now recognizes it has a problem here. how are they handling this one? >> it is good. remember, willie, when they had that footballess family campaign last year, they were really saying to moms let your kids keep playing football. this isn't goodell's fault.

the league got religion really late in the church service about concussions, head wounds and all the rest of it. but ultimately it is a violent sport. it is always going to be a violent sport. they can spend $300 million or $500 million. there is always going to be an element of risk. i wonder at some point if nfl players are going to have to sign a waiver saying we understand the risks of playing this sport for a long time that will protect the league from being sued from now until the end of time. >> in some ways, if you don't have the feeder from the bottom and kids stop letting their kids play football, it affects generations ahead. you've got boys. what's that conversation like with your kids if they say, dad, i want to go play football? >> willie, i can't write books about football and say, this is a clear and present danger to the youth of america. would i have preferred they not play? two of my boys played one year in football and never got their uniforms dirty. it was a pacifist approach.

but i believe that everything that can be done is being done. but there is going to be an element of risk from pop warner -- my new book is set in pop warner. on. >> let's talk about your new book. you always give your characters in these books a hurdle to climb before they get where they're going. >> this is the most i've ever thrown at a character. tommy gallagher is the son of a hero firefighter. as a new yorker, i wanted to write a book about a firefighting family. and he loses his dad. spoiler alert. in the first chapter, his dad goes in to get one more kid. it is the classic story. they go in when everybody's out. they find out there is one more child in a burning building. tommy by now knows the difference between the sound of a fire around the sound of an ambulance. he hears both while he is wondering why his father's not up in his perch in the stands where he's always been. and that starts the action of the book. and it's a book about courage because this boy finds reservoirs of courage and he finds out that as the son of a

firefighter who had saved people for a living, tommy doesn't know it but his job's going to be to save his little sister who's been as wounded by this death as tommy is. >> it is a great read. i'm sure it will be a best seller. before i let you go, you got a super bowl pick? i know it is early. going into week two. who do you like early on? >> if there is any justice in the world the green bay packers are going to go to the super bowl this year because for the last two years, the best player in the sport, aaron rodgers, doesn't get to play in overtime in the playoffs because his team loses a coin flip. okay? think about this. a $13 billion -- a $13 billion industry comes down to a coin flip. does that make any sense? >> you're fired up about this one. i'm still going with the giants, my friend. again, the book is "last man out." mike lupica, great to see you. siri daly helps you make dinner in a hurry. but first, this is "today" on nbc.

when i said i wanted to fly solo across the atlantic, people said i was crazy. just like when i said i wanted chicken for breakfast, people said i was crazy again. so then i flew solo across the atlantic and then i went to chick-fil-a and got the new egg white grill. and now i'm flying a victory lap. you know how many likes i'm going to get on this one? sooo many likes! chicken for breakfast. it's not as crazy as you think. try the new egg white grill from chick-fil-a.

we are back with "today food" and we have more of our one-pot wonders to get you in and out of the kitchen -- fast. >> siri daly has two recipes that carson and the kids love so we think you're going to like them, too. >> good morning, guys. as you both know because you are my friend and you're my husband, we have very picky eaters at home. so i sneak a little veggie in. ground turkey, pasta, you can use gluten-free pasta. i used chickpea pasta. toppings, avocado, jalapeno. we'll sneak in our squash and cheese later. ground turkey is cooking over

here. until it is no longer pink. swap ground beef or pork or whatever you want. add our winter squash. this is frozen. it is super easy. this will kind of almost melt into the turkey and it creates a little like sweetness. doesn't really change the flavor. >> it's not green! >> if we put anything green in at all, the kids -- i see green. >> unless it is a green m & m. yeah. >> that's on next week's one-pot dish. >> so i put some taco seasoning in here, too. let that sort of cook down. next we're going to add our pasta. we're going to put it all in there. taco sauce. >> how do you not over cook the purrky if it the pasta is not even cooked yet. >> listen. >> that's my problem. >> just listen. >> add the chicken stock. and then we're going to cover it

and let it simmer for about ten minutes. then i'll show you what it looks like. >> you think the little noodles work better. >> i like these because then some of the cheese kind of gets into the noodle. >> no sign of yam. >> that's right. now we're going to add the cheese and it will sort of melt into it. >> mexican blend cheese? >> mexican blend cheese. here it is. you have your toppings. >> this looks good. >> we have tasters downstairs? okay, good. do you like? >> heaven. >> heaven. >> look at willie's plate? >> it looks so good. >> willie, would your kids eat this? >> 100%. >> so would we. >> that takes like ten minutes. honestly. >> this is better than the one you made at home. it is really good. >> you didn't eat at home. you were at "the voice." >> now we're going to make some brownies. another secret ingredient, black

beans. we've got black beans, cocoa powder, bittersweet chocolate. right over here we have butter and bittersweet chocolate melting on a double boiler so there is a little bit of water underneath. you want to cook that slowly so it doesn't burn until it melts. here it is here all nice and cool slightly. we're going to adds our ingredients. grab the eggs, and here's some sugar. >> why are we adding these? >> all in one? >> yes. >> we adding beans because -- >> it's kind of replaces the oils so it will still be nice and moist but it adds fiber, minerals. everything -- no, not yet! but that's okay. it's all right. yeah. grab the vanilla. >> make up your mind. then the black beans. these were canned black beans that we drained and pureed. if you don't have a blender, you can just mash them by hand. that's flour, cocoa powder and salt. since you're just kind of doing it all. >> we only have 30 seconds left. >> it is going to work. put it in an 8x8 greased pan,

bake for 25 to 30 minutes. they are the fudgy -- >> yummy! >> thick brownies with black beans. >> let's check in with our jury downstairs. >> how are the bownies? >> love the brownies. don't even really taste that the beans are there. >> i'm basically eating pasta with a side of brownie. >> it is healthy for you and baby, dylan. >> but no sign of yams, no sign of beans. nice job! >> siri, thank you. for all of this week's one-pot recipes go to today.com. >> why are you drinking a beer? is that in the recipe? >> i feel like i'm at home. >> come home with me, sweetie. you be my secret spouse.

it is birthday time. dylan, you're up. more brownies. >> we love celebrating all the remarkable people with help from our friends at smucker's. let's start with a happy 104th birthday to susan keith. this atlanta braves fan is from selma, alabama. she plays the piano and is known for her beautiful singing voice. santiago diaz. and murl robson.

it is going to be an enjoyable vacation in the sun. it's not -- full disclosure here, it is not that i'm being secretive about ply personal life. tammy, our executive producer, says people are always asking are you dating. i'm weeding out. i'm narrowing down. i have a couple -- two guys that i really like. >> this is big. both >> both of them aren't on the trip. i've got two guys in my life that i really like. i think when you are ready to commit, you want to make sure. >> i think you should take both of them on the trip and bring one rose and one of them gets it and the other one gets left behind. >> see, i'm more of a game of thrones. fight for me. let me see how smart you are. how far can you throw that ball? i'm more competitive like that. no, i'm like a lot of people. you are dating someone, you

happen to enjoy someone else's company. you aren't sure if either are the right one. then your birthday comes up and you're faced with this dilemma. but i'm going to work it out. >> speaking of two men. we have two menteed up here. unfortunately they are both the wrong men because they are both taken. but in a perfect world where you can imagine one of your favorite guys is josh duhamel here. >> i can't be there but i wanted to get you something really special. what i was thinking was -- how about that? yeah? yeah? maybe authentic solid gold london bridge? yeah? no? >> he bought you a bridge, tamron. >> josh duhamel knows who i am? >> behave yourself. >> he knows every outfit you

wear. every morning he watches. >> josh duhamel, top of the list. >> not the list you gave us last week. >> no. but that hall pass or whatever. >> you said hall pass number one, mcsteamy. roll it. >> hey, tamron. eric dane. sending you some love all the way from madrid, spain. no, seriously. just sending you a big happy birthday. next time i'm in town i'll stop by 30 rock and give you a big smooch. >> okay. but if i had a hall pass -- because it was named after me -- those are my two. >> those are your two guys right there. >> did i get them in the right order? >> i don't want to make a competition. they're -- they're the cat's meow. >> you got a smooch coming. >> thank you. thank you, guys. thank you. more coming later in the show. >> i'm blushing now.

right now the donald taped a segment with dr. oz yesterday in which he shared the results of his physical examination performed last week by dr. harold bornstein. remember that? he answered questions about his health. take a look. >> why not share your medical records? why not -- >> well, i have really no problem in doing it. i have it right here. should i do it? >> you're 6'3", 236 pounds. in my mind i'm thinking your body surface area and your bmi is high. >> yeah. if i had one thing, i'd like to lose weight. it's tough because of the way i live. but the one thing i would like to do is be able to drop 15, 20 pounds. >> everyone wants to drop a little pound here and there. the donald is a hefty fella. >> the other doctor -- if that weight is the correct weight, then is he overweight. think a lot of people relate to that. i think what he said about eating fast food, because it is consistent, there's a reason that chains are a success.

there is an olive garden in it the middle of times square. people go to what they know. how he gets his exercise -- >> he doesn't exercise. >> he said on the campaign trail, moving his hands counts as exercise. >> he does a dainty little thing like this. when he's making a point he does this. i'm thinking that burns at least an eighth of a calorie. >> i have my fitness pal. i'm going to turn it on and move my arms and see if that counts. i thought that was an interesting answer to the question. >> by the way, i love he's like, should i do this now? we should all carry our medical records in our inside pocket all of the time. he, by the way, could not control himself. he's held off long enough commenting on hillary. he was at a rally yesterday in ohio and took a little pot shot. >> i don't know, fox follks, yo think hillary would be able to stand up here for an hour and do

this? i don't think so. she's lying at home in bed and we want her better and back on the trail. >> we want her better and back on the trial. like she's lying in bed. he's painting a picture. incapacitated. >> he's blown up the line that she is napping, she doesn't have the stamina. so many people thought that that was behind him, he wouldn't use that kind of comments. but clearly it's game-on. hillary clinton released more detailed medical information, somewhere around 20 specific things about her health from cholesterol to all of the details. also gave the clarification what kind of pneumonia she has, a non-contagious bacterial infection. she is on levoquin which i was on when i had a similar issue. this is a risky move for dr. oz. i have to be honest. you got senator claire mccaskill

of missouri was on nbc "morning joe" a few minutes ago slamming dr. oz. just feeling that this is a very serious issue and that she compared it -- >> he's not just a tv doctor. >> he's a real doctor. >> he is a practicing cardio thorascic surgeon. >> but he was brought in front of congress at a hearing about some of the claims of products that he's made. my point is not to make this about dr. oz or litigate his issues, it's when you get into politics. when we chat about it on the show, you are instantly in the crosshairs of at least half of america. >> he said what he saw on those two pages. we'll see it later on today, is basically what you would see from a ceo taking over a company and he thought it was enough for donald to be -- lead the country as president of the united states. he's in good health. that's what he said. >> that's what he said. >> hillary, she followed up very wisely and dropped things like

hemoglobin, glucose levels, cholesterol. she's obviously doing it. it is the war of transparency. >> do you want to know? this is the question a lot of people are asking. do we need to know that much about the health? >> yes. >> do you? >> for president? yes. we need -- if he's our -- or she is our president. who is the highest paid actress on television? this is surprising. it is not who is number one that surprises me. it is who is number seven. i'm surprised by seven and eight. wow. >> number one's been consistent. >> number one's been consistent. let me tell you that, every day my challenge is to be in sync with my body, with myself, with my life. it all starts with a healthy routine. that's why i'm taking the activia two week probiotic challenge by enjoying activia yogurt with billions of probiotics every day. because when my routine is in sync, i can face any challenge. so take the activia probiotic challenge! visit activia.com to learn more. take the activia probiotic challenge now.
