THANKS LEIGH.

NOW TO A BIG TALKER THIS AFTERNOON.

REACTION TO GEORGE ZIMMERMAN'S 1ST TV INTERVIEW LAST NIGHT.

A REACTION FROM TRAYVON'S MARTIN'S FAMILY.

GEORGE ZIMMERMAN-TRX PKG

AFTER LISTENING TO GEORGE ZIMMERMAN'S EXPLANATION OF THE NIGHT THEIR TEENAGED SON WAS KILLED. DURING HIS FIRST MEDIA INTERVIEW ON FOX NEWS CHANNEL'S HANNITY SHOW.

"I'm not a racist and I'm not a murderer."

TODAY, TRAYVON MARTIN'S PARENTS SAY THEY ARE SPEAKING OUT. FOR THEIR SON. WHO CAN'T.

"He had no regards for Trayvon's life, he had no regrets for taking Trayvon's life."

DURING HIS INTERVIEW. ZIMMERMAN DID SAY HE WISHED HE COULD CHANGE THE CIRCUMSTANCES OF THAT DEADLY NIGHT.

"I do wish that there was something, anything I could have done that wouldn't have put me in a position where I had to take his life."

HE SAID THE UNARMED 17-YEAR-OLD INITIATED THE CONFRONTATION. PUNCHING HIM. THREATENING HIS LIFE. AND ULTIMATELY WRESTLING FOR THE GUN ZIMMERMAN HAD STRAPPED TO HIS WAIST.

"At that point I realized it wasn't my gun, wasn't his gun. it was the gun."

"Those are George Zimmerman's words. George Zimmerman said they were fighting over the gun. George Zimmerman is here to tell his side of the story Trayvon is dead."

ZIMMERMAN REPEATEDLY SAID HE WAS "SORRY" FOR THE LOSS OF THEIR CHILD.

AND HE APOLOGIZED FOR THE CONTROVERSY THAT HAS FOLLOWED THE SHOOTING.

BUT HE ALSO INSISTED THERE WAS NOTHING HE WOULD HAVE OR COULD HAVE DONE DIFFERENTLY THE NIGHT MARTIN WAS KILLED.

"I feel that it was all God's plan and for me to second guess it or judge it um.shakes his head

MARTIN'S MOTHER CALLED THE RESPONSE -QUOTE- "RIDICULOUS".

"I don't believe it's God's plan for him to kill an innocent teenager."

AND ZIMMERMAN'S PARENTS SAY THEIR PLAN HASN'T CHANGED. THEY WILL CONTINUE TO FIGHT FOR WHAT THEY CALL "JUSTICE" FOR TRAYVON.

OBAMA IN FL TODAY-PKG

THE POLITICAL FIGHT OF THE YEAR CONTINUES IN FLORIDA TODAY. PRESIDENT OBAMA'S MAKING TWO CAMPAIGN STOPS THERE.

HE'LL FOCUS ON MEDICARE - CLAIMING MITT ROMNEY WOULD MAKE IT MORE EXPENSIVE FOR THE STATE'S 3-POINT-4 MILLION SENIORS.

Florida:16-:25

"I am so tired of President of the United States - with the awesome seal he gets to go around with - pointing, trying to create divisions."

THE WHITE HOUSE SAYS THE PRESIDENT WON'T BACK OFF PUSHING FOR MORE ROMNEY TAX RETURNS. PROMINENT REPUBLICANS HAVE CALLED FOR THEM, TOO

"It's not necessarily comfortable, but it's become a tradition and it's an important one, you make your tax returns available because you think the American people deserve that kind of transparency."

BUT IN OHIO - ROMNEY AND HIS SURROGATES CLAIMED THE TAX RETURN ISSUE - AND ATTACKS ON ROMNEY'S WORK AT BAIN CAPITAL - ARE DELIBERATE DISTRACTIONS:

Louisiana:55-1:01

"All he can do is distort his policies. All he can do is make up allegations, try to distract our attention away from his failed performance."

Presidential Candidate 1:02-1:09

"His priority is not creating jobs for the American people, his priority is trying to keep his own job and that's why he is going to lose it."

AIDES SAY ROMNEY COULD ANNOUNCE A RUNNING MATE IN THE NEXT WEEK.

NO LEAKS ON WHO THAT MIGHT BE - BUT ROMNEY INSISTS IT'LL BE A CONSERVATIVE.

THIS WEATHERCAST HAS BEEN PREPARED BY THE NBC2 WEATHER STAFF.

IT IS NOT A VERBATIM OF WHAT IS BEING SAID, BUT IS THE FORECAST FOR OUR AREA.

After a wet start to the week, our weather pattern is drying out and heating up.

The upper level low that brought us the soggy rains continues to weaken across the southeast states today with the rain focused across central and north Florida. Skies will start off mostly clear with most locations in the middle and upper 70s.

The tropical airmass that has been entrenched across the area will be replaced by dry high pressure building in from the Atlantic along with Saharan dust. This will bring hot, hazy, and humid conditions to Southwest Florida for Thursday and Friday, while keeping rain chances to a minimum. With the seabreeze making its way in this afternoon, a stray afternoon/evening shower is possible otherwise the vast majority of the area will stay dry. Temperatures will soar into the mid 90s with heat index values in the 101°-105° range.

BACK 2 SCHOOL SPENDING

THANKS TYLER.

IT'S THE SOUND KIDS DON'T WANT TO HEAR.

SCHOOL IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER!

BUT IT'S GREAT NEWS FOR RETAILERS.

BACK 2 SCHOOL SPENDING-TRX PKG

--REPORTER PKG-AS FOLLOWS --

THE THOUGHT OF GOING BACK-TO-SCHOOL IS A DOWNER FOR MOST KIDS ON SUMMER BREAK. FOR RETAILERS, HOWEVER, THINGS ARE LOOKING UP.

THE NATIONAL RETAIL FEDERATION'S ANNUAL SURVEY OF BACK-TO-SCHOOL SHOPPERS FINDS THE AVERAGE PERSON WITH SCHOOL-AGE CHILDREN WILL SPEND $688.62, UP ABOUT 85 DOLLARS FROM LAST YEAR, FOR A TOTAL OF MORE THAN 30 BILLION DOLLARS IN RETAIL SALES.

When you think about how much people are spending, a lot of them have tried to make do with what they had over the last several years and they want to make sure that their kids have everything they need to go back to school.

THE BULK OF BACK-TO-SCHOOL MONEY WILL BE SPENT ON CLOTHING -- ABOUT 246 DOLLARS, FOLLOWED BY ELECTRONICS, 217.

SHOES, JUST OVER 129.

AND ABOUT 95 DOLLARS ON SUPPLIES.

RETAILERS HOPE A ROBUST BACK-TO-SCHOOL SEASON CAN SNAP A THREE-MONTH STREAK OF DECLINES IN SALES, AS CONSUMERS REMAIN CAUTIOUS.

HALF OF THOSE SURVEYED SAID THEY'LL BE SEEKING DISCOUNTS. RETAILERS SAY THEY'LL FIND PLENTY IN-STORE AND ONLINE.

STILL, BACK-TO-SCHOOL AND BACK-TO-CAMPUS SHOPPERS ARE EXPECTED TO SPEND A COMBINED 83-POINT-EIGHT BILLION DOLLARS THIS YEAR, A BUYING SEASON RETAILERS SAY RANKS SECOND ONLY TO THE WINTER HOLIDAYS.

AMAZINGLY NO ONE WAS SERIOUSLY HURT.

WRONG WAY HEAD ON CRASH-PKG

--REPORTER PKG-AS FOLLOWS --

THERE IS SOMETHING VERY WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE.A WRONG WAY DRIVER. YOU CAN HEAR A PASSENGER IN THE CAR FROM WHICH THIS VIDEO WAS SHOT CALLING 911.

"He's going every bit of 70."

THEY HAD WATCHED THE CAR SWERVE ONTO THE WRONG SIDE OF DIVIDED HIGHWAY 49 IN COLLINS, MISSISSIPPI.

"I can't watch."

"God, I can't either. This is gonna be bad. God dang, he's gonna hurt somebody severely bad."

THAT'S THE VOICE OF A LOUISIANA RESTAURANT OWNER.

"AL FANNING, HIS WIFE AND TWO KIDS WERE DRIVING HOME FROM THE BEACH WHEN THEY FIRST SAW THE CAR DRIVING IN FRONT OF THEM WEAVING ALL OVER THE PLACE."

"He had both hands on the steering wheel. And his head was just dropped like he was unconscious.I was blowing the horn at him trying to get him to wake up."

AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT THE CAR CROSSED OVER TO THE WRONG SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY, AND THAT'S WHEN THE FANNINGS STARTED RECORDING.

"There it is. Oh good God."

WE'VE SEEN PLENTY OF WRONG WAY CAR VIDEO.

".1050 I've just been hit by individual."

FROM THIS DASHCAM VIEW OF A UTAH TROOPER WHO SAW A VEHICLE GOING THE WRONG WAY, TURNED AROUND, AND GOT IN FRONT OF IT. TO THIS SCARY CELL PHONE VIDEO.

"Oh, slow down!"

OF A CAR IN OREGON WEAVING INTO THE OPPOSITE LANE.

"Oh, no, no, no, no, no."

AND EVENTUALLY GOING OFF THE ROAD.

"Oh my God. Slow down. Stop, stop, stop."

WHAT THEY HAVE IN COMMON IS YOU WAIT FOR THE WORST TO HAPPEN.

"Peyton close your eyes. Molly do not look. This is gonna hurt somebody severely bad."

THE GOOD NEWS IS SEVERELY BAD WAS NOT THE OUTCOME.

"No. Oh, my gosh. There it went There it went."

THE WRONG WAY CAR HIT A FORD EXPEDITION.

"Stay in the car."

"Stay in the car."

AL FANNING OPENED THE DOOR OF THE EXPEDITION AND TWO FEMALE OCCUPANTS WALKED OUT BASICALLY UNHURT.

"We sat there in the ditch together."

THE DRIVER OF THE WRONG WAY CAR, 58-YEAR OLD EDWARD FAIRLEY, SUFFERED A BROKEN SHOULDER AND OTHER NON-LIFE THREATENING INJURIES. FANNING SAYS POLICE BELIEVE A MEDICAL CONDITION MAY HAVE CAUSED HIS WILD DRIVING. FANNING HIMSELF HAS BEEN CHEERED FOR HELPING AND NOT JUST RECORDING. THOUGH RECORDING WHILE DRIVING GOT FANNING A SCOLDING.

"Because he's not focused on the roadway himself. "

"I knew that was coming."

BUT NO ONE KNEW THAT THIS WAS COMING.

"Oh my gosh."

"Flight is not an issue for her, having gone through the TSA process, we knew what to expect and were prepared."

JOHN DEATON AND HIS WIFE MELINDA ARE PROS WHEN IT COMES TO GETTING THROUGH SECURITY AT THE AIRPORT.

IT'S A MIRACLE.CONSIDERING MELINDA HAS TO FREQUENTLY TRAVEL TO MINNESOTA'S MAYO CLINIC.WITH A MEDICALLY IMPLANTED 4-INCH TUBE STICKING OUT OF HER STOMACH.

"They will see it on their screens, ask her what it is, she'd identify it, they may pat it on the outside of her clothing, accept it and go on."

BUT THIS MORNING WAS DIFFERENT.

JOHN DIDN'T GO ON MELINDA'S FLIGHT.AND WHEN SHE WENT THROUGH SECURITY. JOHN SAYS. AGENTS WENT TOO FAR.

"When she was crying on the phone when she called me after going through the check point, then I knew something was wrong."

"They had physically stripped her and saw the tube coming out of her stomach and and they decided that they needed to check it for explosives, so they had to physically handle the tube."

NOT ONLY DID THEY TOUCH THE TUBE. MELINDA TOLD JOHN.THEY SWABBED THE TUBE FOR BOMB MAKING MATERIALS.POSSIBLY CAUSING A MEDICAL ISSUE.

"Anytime you put a harsh substance on it, you run the risk of contamination. They put stuff on there that we don't know what it is and identify. She has a weak immune system as part of her medical condition, and it can be very fatal to her."

MELINDA WAS WEARING A MEDICAL BRACELET LIKE THIS ONE.WITH DIGITAL COPIES OF A DOCTOR'S NOTE.EXPLAINING THE MEDICAL CONDITION.

BUT THAT DIDN'T STOP T-S-A AGENTS FROM STRIP SEARCHING THE WOMAN.

"They saw somebody with something strange coming out of their stomach, and they reacted totally as if she was a hostile target."

JOHN HAS FILED A FORMAL COMPLAINT WITH THE TSA.

HIS WIFE IS EMBARRASSED.AND AS A HUSBAND.JOHN IS MAD.

WE'VE TALKED ABOUT A NEW FEDERAL WEBSITE IS DESIGNED TO HANDLE YOUR CREDIT CARD COMPLAINTS.

AND IF YOU NEED A NEW CARD.

IT MIGHT BE A GOOD PLACE TO START YOUR SEARCH.

BUT THERE ARE LIMITS.

CREDIT CARD COMPLAINTS-PKG

WHEN IT COMES TO OUR CREDIT CARDS, WE ARE OFTEN SLOW TO CHANGE.

"I kind of just stick to one credit card."

"Once every 20 years, had the same credit card for many years."

BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN WE ARE ALWAYS HAPPY WITH OUR CARDS. IN FACT THE FEDERAL CONSUMER FINANCIAL PROTECTION BUREAU JUST A LAUNCHED A WEBSITE THAT TRACKS COMPLAINTS AGAINST THE COUNTRY'S LARGEST BANKS AND THEIR CREDIT CARDS.

"Where you can actually go in as a consumer into the database and see the complains that have been filed by other credit card users."

THE CONSUMER COMPLAINT DATABASE BREAKS DOWN THE ENTRIES BY BANK, BY CATEGORIES, BY ZIP CODE AND MORE. THERE'S NO PERSONAL NAMES USED. AND ONLY ONE LINE IF IT'S BEEN RESOLVED OR NOT. THIS IS BY NO MEANS A COMPLETE REPORT.

"It is some information but users need to understand that it's not a full picture of the credit card industry."

NEVER-THE-LESS, SAN DIEGO STATE FINANCIAL PROFESSOR DAVID ELY SAYS IT COULD ENCOURAGE BIG BANKS TO RESOLVE MORE CONSUMER COMPLAINTS.

"No issuer wants to be identified as the institution that has the most complaints filed against it."

"While it's important to read those complaints, it may not be the first thing you want to look at if you're considering changing credit cards."

"I think i would definitely check out the benefits. I know some credit cards have cash back."

"One that has good security, internet security."

"Umm, the interest rate."

AND NONE OF THAT INFORMATION IS IN THE DATABASE. IT DOES SHOW THAT THE #1 CONSUMER COMPLAINT IS BILLING DISPUTES FOLLOW BY INTEREST RATES, ACCOUNT CANCELATIONS AND CREDIT REPORTS.

HIV DRUG-PKG

"This morning when I opened up my Facebook account. The first thing I saw was somebody say. New drug to prevent HIV yay!"

IT WAS A POST THAT DIDN'T SIT TOO WELL WITH THE DIRECTOR OF THE AIDS SERVICE ASSOCIATION.

"That frightened me to death because I can just see people say. Oh my God! Throw away the condoms; we're good. We don't have to worry about this anymore; we just take a pill. Well, the pill costs 14,000 a year."

PEOPLE WITH H-I-V HAVE USED TRUVADA FOR YEARS.

NOW THE F-D-A OKAYED IT AS A PREVENTIVE MEASURE FOR HEALTHY PEOPLE AT HIGH RISK OF GETTING HIV, LIKE THOSE WHO HAVE SEX WITH HIV-INFECTED PARTNERS.

"We're happy to find any kind of opportunity to help reduce HIV infections. But we cannot let it be in our mind. this is going to prevent HIV because that's just not true."

ONE STUDY SHOWED THE DRUG REDUCED INFECTION RATES BY 63% OVERALL IN HEALTHY MEN AND WOMEN AT HIGH RISK OF INFECTION.

AFTER THE F-D-A'S DECISIONS. DOCTORS AROUND THE COUNTRY TOUTED ITS BENEFITS.

"The shark kept circling several times around the boat. I could see the silhouette clearly. I mean, the water was crystal clear."

THEY COULDN'T BE CERTAIN.

MAYBE IT WAS A TIGER SHARK WITH NO STRIPES.

MAYBE JUST A GIANT BULL SHARK.

"We kind of wanted to get him real close to the boat, so we could get a good video of him."

"So, when they finally arrived back on land, they got to the nearest computer. They uploaded the video, and singled out these still frames of the shark. And from the looks of it, almost definitely a great white."

THE HOFF ADS STOLEN-2 SHOT

FINALLY THIS AFTERNOON.

HANDS OFF THE HOFF!

ICED COFFEE ADS OF DAVID HASSELHOFF ARE DISAPPEARING FROM CONVENIENCE STORES ACROSS NEW ENGLAND.

THE HOFF ADS STOLEN-PKG

His face is everywhere trying to tempt you to buy a refreshing iced coffee.

But coffee isn't the hot item here -- it's the ads themselves, with his picture on them.

They're being stolen from stores all over New England.

"One of my friends whose nickname at school is Hasselhoff so we saw this sign and my roommate took it for him. It's in her house right now when we got back to school it will be in my friend's room."

"The signs are so popular, they have stores keep a close eye on them so they don't walk out the door."

"I've never had anyone steal any but it doesn't surprise me."

One store in Braintree hasn't had any stolen yet but that doesn't mean people don't want get their hands on the Hoff.

"It's crazy. They keep offering. They come in -- we probably get customers probably every night asking to buy the Hasselhoff poster."

Reporter: "Why do you think people want those posters so bad?"

"I don't know, man. I don't know. It's just like Germany, the Hasselhoff thing is really hot I guess. I don't know."

Cumberland Farms said, "Although we are flattered our customers have become attached to our iced coffee ads, we do not encourage theft. The Hoff is there for all to enjoy."

They also said they don't know how many ads have been stolen but they keep getting calls from stores for replacements.

Here in Somerville, they're just waiting for the Hoff to take off.
