7:24 am
pay musicians for music heard during its free trial period. >> well, apparently now apple has had a change of heart. so what was in this letter to make apple change its heart. >> all i have to say is taylor swift should run for president. at 25 she has net worth of at least 200 million-dollar. she has a big punch. she wrote a letter to apple and basically said look, we don't ask you for free iphones don't ask us for free music. she doesn't need roleties when company stream her stuff because she's loaded but she said, new comers, they absolutely need this money. so she said to apple later this in when you start your streaming serve that is will be eventually $10 a month but give customers a three month free trial, during that free trial, pay the artists every time their stuff is streamed. guess what, 24 hours later apple says, okay.
7:25 am

>> anyway, so it is off to a mild start with temperatures in the 07's right now. we're looking at seven out of ten. it might be eight worth toy day but it will be much warmer than normal. no precipitation in the forecast. we have sun and included right now. 76 degrees is your temperature at the a airport. relative humidity for june in philadelphia it is in the bad. 69 percent. west north westerly breeze at 9 miles an hour and plan on a hot afternoon, just not quite as humid, as it often is around these parts. 91 degrees our high temperature. sunset time 8:33. we have already had now the longest day of the year, so days will be getting a little bit shorter after this. that is a look at your weather authority forecast, lets check traffic with bob kelly, what is up. >> 7:30. sky fox over the scene of the train, that was involved in the fatal accident this morning, we're looking at the new jersey transit river line,
7:31 am
and that is the line that runs from trenton all the way down into camden, a person struck and killed by this train here this morning in south jersey. now lets go to the maps. it was the river line stretch between robeling and the bordentown stations. now new jersey transit is saying it is a trespasser so that means it was not, it wasn't a person at a station. it was somebody crossing the tracks, between these two points. they are putting shuttle bus necessary to play to take passengers from robeling to bordentown and look for about 30 minute delays right now on the river line itself. heading westbound out of town on the schuylkill, delays from the boulevard out toward belmont avenue. good morning to the shaders, maple shade, new jersey we have sun glare every where this morning. delays, extra volume on 73 rolling through fellowship. we are bumper to bumper to bumper here on i-95 southbound from cottman avenue in through girard.
7:32 am
you're slow go on the schuylkill. also i-95 jammed into that girard avenue construction zone. watch for the sun glare, it is wick around that conshohocken curve. mike and alex, back over to you. forgiveness and solidarity was message in many churches around the country including mother belt bethel ame church in philadelphia some residents came to visit their sister church over the weekend. >> nothing is about reason and we cannot do anything about it. we have to move on. >> reverend mark tyler joins us again this morning. >> good to see you. >> so many people all over the country have their eyes on emmanuel ame churches all over the country. first message even though people are dealing with so much they want forgiveness why is that. >> family put it on the table first. in surprising fashion. i don't think anybody expect that in the bond hearing. i'm in the surprised by it.
7:33 am
as i said the folks at that bible study were some of the most devout people, follow thanks come back for those weekday bible studies. always a smart group. it is not surprised that their family believes what they were preaching and teaching all the time good when dylann roof went before the judge for the very first time, they were parishioners there, forgiving him. >> yes. >> i don't know that i could. >> i don't know that any of us could and i believe and in forgiveness but less than 48 hours, after your family members have been killed to stand before the person who allegedly did it, and to offer it, you know, again it is just speaking to the power of what forgiveness does. hatred is what got us here based on lies, racial myths and racism so hatred cannot get you out of here. it does something to free this person. >> when you talk about the power of forgiveness, some people are a little slow.
7:34 am
if i forgive right now, i have even people tweet about this, it will get swept under the rug. we will not address issues of racist familiar we don't say what happen. we forgive you, it is okay. >> i don't want to confuse forgiveness with dealing with the issues. you have to let things go. you cannot carry because it will consume you as well. that doesn't deal with the real issue. i saw a quote from william barber from north carolina perpetrator was caught but killer is still on the loose. the killer in this case was not the young man's actions to the internet, even the gun per se, as much as it is about this attitude of race, and racial bias, that, you know, since the beginning of our country has been founded on lies and miss truths, things that suggest that black people are inferior, soulless and our history has said black people only have souls. so that is real thing we have to address. >> somehow that got into his head over his 21 years and he
7:35 am
spewed it all out, that i guess we have all read by now over the weekend. what did you say yesterday. >> so yesterday i dealt with, the story of joseph in the old testament where joseph was sold by his brothers into slavery and confronted them 20 some odd years later. same brothers came back to him. didn't recognize him because he had adopted egyptian ways, and what i said to them is that, the only way joseph can make himself known to his brothers by taking the things off that he a haddon and his brothers could never know hoe was because they always looked on the outside. reality is that many of us don't recognize our mutual humanity. this young man, thought something of people simply by what they have on the outside and didn't realize he was in the room that have would have taken the shirts off his back to help him have whatever he wanted. that is the real problem when we let race dictate how we view each other. >> are people scared at your church. >> well, you know, lot of people were not, the church was pretty full. i want to say it seems as
7:36 am
though to me, i didn't talk to a lot of members after service, there was a revolve. i will be at church. one of our, bishops in florida released a litany ame have used. others have e mailed me. friend have used it in their church. they said the doors of the church are still opened. the powerful litany, and the doors of the church are opened, is something we say in ame church every sunday. doors are still opened. yesterday the doors were open. folks came in. they worshiped without fear. >> yes. >> thank you. >> you will be heading down to charleston ahead of the funeral. >> that is my plan. i want to be there to pay honor and tribute to my friend reverend pinckney. >> all right. listen to this at 7:36, what one school is doing to protect texting loving students from the belts and why others may soon be following suit.
7:38 am
7:40 am
walking behind some who has been texting and they slowed way down. you are trying to get someplace and they are walking. >> one university is trying to solve that problem for students and staff. lauren, it can ab anything when you are trying to pass them. >> that is right, very annoying. we heard someone say stay in your lane. it is right lane texting on the stairs at utah valley university. college painted lanes to keep everyone clear, on exactly where they need to be. so marketing and communications department decorated the steps with the neon stripes and they labeled them. they wanted to live even up the campus. lanes are divided in to walk, run and text. the photo went viral. the school says the stair lanes have received local, national and international attention and creative director at the youth said design was meant for people to laugh rather than attempt to direct traffic flow. he wanted to engage student ape catch their attention. so now text and walk lanes have been spotted in belgium, china, d.c.
7:41 am
>> i think this is coming. >> we could use that here. >> bike lanes, people don't follow those rules but that would be perfect because there is so many times, i was in the airport yesterday, it is just annoying when someone is walking in slow motion and you have somewhere to be. they don't know where they are going. they are veering both ways. you have done that before where you are trying to get around them. >> even on sidewalks, yes. >> i have to admit i'm guilty of this just last week i was walking out of the station and looking down and texting and someone goes you better watch it. it was dennis bianchi our general manager. he said you shouldn't walk and text, alex. >> i was doing it yesterday. >> yes. >> i was in new york, i was standing on a street corner, and i knew i was texting right on the corner. you are supposed to go up against a building and get out of the way. >> yeah. >> but what do you do when somebody, i talk about this before, somebody is coming at you. they are about to run into you and they are texting, what you
7:42 am
do do. >> stop, you have to move. >> they can't see you, they can't move. >> they are coming at me and they are texting. i go like this. >> you force them to bum in to you so they have to look up. >> yes. >> that is horrible. >> just bark at them. >> ruff. >> when you are walking on the sidewalk and even when people are looking at each other, who will move, who will do it. who will step up at the last second. >> if you are on the baltimore stroll don't be texting while stralling. >> quincy is there stralling there. >> this is six years we have been doing this. >> yes, it goes on, this thursday, and we will start our preview of the stroll, at the green line cafe and guess what i'm excited because they have these car on the dogs. i'm exited to eat car on the dogs. we will see how they taste and i'll tell you the truth about them coming up next.
