it's not bad at all to shake hands. >> the guys at johns hopkins.ay you get fewer germs than you think shaking hands. they did a test of 5,200 students at graduation. and they swabbed the hand of the shakee and they found it was pretty much clean 93% of the time. it was just harmless strains of bacteria. >> the trouble is, you can't tell from looking at somebody who is not harmless. >> and who has been coughing in their hands. >> and doing other things that should not be discussed. there is good news on this level. beatrice has that hat. it's been auctioned off for a good cause. $131,000. it's going to be split between two charities, united nations children's fund, unicef and british charity's children. >> they won't say who bid on that. somebody only gave their first initial and three asterisks. so it was m. asterisk -- >> look, there we are. >> so you know, big doings around here wednesday. we are going to start our voice competition. we haven't, but our producers have been narrowing it down. it's difficult, they said. >> we are going to cover our

after i graduated law school, i was accepted to johns hopkins school of international studies.d. i really want to do this, but it's my children's turn. they've got to be educated. i cannot continue getting degrees for myself and just leave my children on the side. and so i had to just simply forego that desire. so i think sacrifice is something. >> that's very important because, jenny, you sacrificed too. you were a working mom, and you moved, what, about ten times as you were raising your children? >> ten times to follow an ex-husband's career and to keep the family stable. ultimately, i think it's really my asian heritage that didn't give me much of a choice. you go where the breadwinner goes. and at that time, i was a teacher. so the teacher's salary was not anywhere near what their father's salary was. so i packed up each and every time, and we were in a different place. always, as mary says, sacrifice. >> tell us about st. mary's center and how it helps young moms. >> a lot of them are teen moms. what we try to do is help them to make the decision of being moms when they'r
