HAGEL BRENNAN NOMINATION-TRX-PKG

PROTESTS OUTSIDE THE WHITE HOUSE. QUESTIONING WHETHER JOHN BRENNAN SPOKE OUT LOUDLY ENOUGH AGAINST CONTROVERSIAL INTERROGATION TACTICS.

THAT'S WHY BRENNAN DROPPED OUT LAST TIME HE WAS CONSIDERED TO HEAD THE C-I-A. THIS TIME. HE'S COURTING BOTH SIDES:

"Although I consider myself neither a Republican nor a Democrat, I very much look forward to working closely with those on both sides of the aisle."

BUT BRENNAN'S CONFIRMATION MAY NOT BE AS TOUGH AS CHUCK HAGEL'S FOR SECRETARY OF DEFENSE.

"Mr. President, I will always give you my honest and most informed counsel."

HAGEL HAS BACKED SOME CUTS AT THE PENTAGON. AN ISSUE CONGRESS WILL DEAL WITH NEXT MONTH.

"As a successful businessman, he also knows that, even as we make tough fiscal choices, we have to do so wisely."

REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS ARE CONCERNED HAGEL IS SOFT ON IRAN. AND TOO/i TOUGH ON OUR ALLY ISRAEL:

Texas :53-1:02

"He has had a record of distinguished service, but he is profoundly wrong on a number of the most important national security issues that face our country today."

HAGEL INSISTS HIS VIEWS HAVE BEEN "COMPLETELY DISTORTED."

HE'S ALSO UNDER FIRE FOR CRITICIZING A CLINTON NOMINEE "OPENLY, AGGRESSIVELY GAY."

"It's dangerous to roll the dice on this issue."

ALL QUESTIONS LAWMAKERS ARE EAGER TO ASK. WHEN CONFIRMATION HEARINGS GET UNDERWAY.

HEALTH DEPARTMENT FLU UPDATE-SS-VO

TAKE SS OF LEE MEMORIAL STATS

Take a look at this table we got from LEE Memorial. You can see flu cases have steadily climbed since early December, reaching a peak over Christmas

That spike has only dropped slightly this past week.

We talked to one infectious disease specialist to find out why that is, and why the season hit us so early.

NATS.

THERE'S NO AVOIDING IT.

WE ARE IN THE THICK OF FLU SEASON -- A MUCH EARLIER START THAN USUAL.ACCORDING TO DOCTORS.

"If this season follows the pattern of other seasons we can expect 5 to 20 percent of the population to contract the flu this year.'

TAKE A LOOK AT THIS MAP FROM THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH.

IT OUTLINES FLU ACTIVITY FOR THE LAST WEEK OF 2012.THE MOST CURRENT DATA AVAILABLE.

IT SHOWS LEE AND COLLIER COUNTIES ARE EXPERIENCING MILD FLU ACTIVITY.

BUT CHARLOTTE COUNTY IS SEEING MODERATE LEVELS OF THE VIRUS.

NATS.

THE GOOD NEWS IS -- THERE IS STILL TIME TO SAFEGUARD YOURSELF.

EXPERTS SAY YOU CAN STILL GET VACCINATED.

WE CALLED MORE THAN A DOZEN PHARMACIES IN OUR AREA -- ALL BUT ONE SAID THEY STILL HAD THE VACCINE.

BUT -- IT CAN TAKE UP TO TWO WEEKS FOR THAT SHOT TO TAKE FULL EFFECT.

NATS.

MUSCLE ACHES.FATIGUE.SNEEZING.ALL THINGS THAT COME TO MIND WHEN WE THINK OF THE FLU -- BUT DOCTORS WARN IT CAN BE MUCH MORE SERIOUS -- EVEN DEADLY.

EACH YEAR -- SOME 200-THOUSAND PEOPLE GO TO THE HOSPITAL BECAUSE OF THE FLU.

THERE ARE ALSO SOME FLU MYTHS OUT THERE.

ACCORDING TO THE CDC.

MANY EXPERTS BELIEVE THE FLU SPREADS MOSTLY FROM "DROPLETS" OF SALIVA WHEN PEOPLE WITH THE VIRUS COUGH.SNEEZE.OR TALK.

THOSE DROPLETS CAN THEN SPREAD TO OTHER PEOPLE NEARBY.

THE CDC SAYS A PERSON MAY STILL GET THE FLU BY TOUCHING AN INFECTED SURFACE.THEN TOUCHING A PART OF THEIR BODY -- BUT THIS HAPPENS LESS OFTEN.

FIRST ALERT FORECAST-CLIP

FIRST ALERT FORECAST-WXWALL

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.Without any cold fronts headed for Southwest Florida anytime soon, our weather will stay unseasonably warm through the next several days.

The last cold front that made an approach on Southwest Florida has been fading and fizzling across Central Florida, and we expect this front to ultimately get washed out and stay north of us.

In the meantime, we stay in a warm and humid air mass. Morning temperatures today only cool to the low to mid 60s, and there's also the potential for some fog to develop through sunrise. Aside from some low clouds and morning fog, our sky should become mostly sunny from mid morning through the afternoon.

Temperatures will be the big story this week. Daytime highs today should easily reach the low to even mid 80s during the heat of the day, and temperatures will stay on track to get even warmer as we go through the week. In fact, there's actually a chance we'll come close to hitting record highs this week, especially on Wednesday and Thursday with our records at 85 and 86, respectively.

Aside from the unseasonably warm temperatures, we'll enjoy lots of sunshine as our sky stays partly cloudy through most of this week. The early mornings could be an exception, as we may have to contend with dense fog close to sunrise.

Rain chances will be pretty scarce this week with the absence of any big rain makers coming our way. Minus a few pop-up showers, our weather looks dry all the way through the upcoming weekend.

"He can't get comfortable, he can't lay down, because of the pain, so he sits up and stares at the wall all night, which is tough to watch."

BOB COOK OF TAUNTON TALKING ABOUT HIS 2 AND A HALF YEAR OLD ENGLISH BULLDOG BUBBA.WHO SUFFERS FROM HIP DISPLAYSIA.

HE SAYS IT'S GOTTEN HIS CONDITION HAS GOTTEN REALLY BAD IN THE LAST SEVERAL MONTHS.

AFTER DOING RESEARCH HE FOUND OUT ABOUT A REGENERATIVE STEM CELL THERAPY AND BECAME HOPEFUL.

HE BROUGHT BUBBA HERE TO ABBOT ANIMAL HOSPITAL IN REHOBOTH.

"It's pretty amazing."

DR. ASHRAF GOMAA IS THE ONLY DOCTOR IN OUR AREA CERTIFIED BY MEDIVET AMERICA, THE COMPANY THAT DEVELOPED THIS TECHNOLOGY.

"There's no harm whatsoever, there's no side effects whatsoever- because we are using that animal's own fat cells."

AFTER EXTRACTING FAT FROM BUBBA, IT IS PROCESSED IN THIS MACHINERY, BASICALLY BROKEN DOWN TO GET TO THE HEALTHY STEM CELLS.

THEY ARE THEN INJECTED BACK INTO BUBBA INTO THE AREA OF CONCERN.

"Replacing the bad cells with new, brand new cells basically. So it's a pretty advanced technology."

"This does not cure that physical condition. What it does is it takes case of the secondary effects that hip dysplasia might bring on- for example, arthritis."

"One thing to note about this procedure, they can harvest enough of an animal's stem cells to save for future use, to treat these chronic conditions."

"Can call up a dose whenever needed, maybe once every 2 years or so. And then administer it back to the dog."

COOK SAYS IT'S COSTING HIM ABOUT 3 THOUSAND DOLLARS, A COST HE SAYS HIS WORTH IT.

"I'm hoping that this will ge him back to normal so he can live a normal life."

AND IF YOU HAVEN'T HEARD OF GOGA BEFORE. IT STANDS FOR GET-ON-GET ACTIVE.

AND EVEN THOUGH IT LOOKS VIRTUALLY EFFORTLESS.ITS DOING MUCH MORE WORK ON THE BODY THAN YOU MIGHT THINK.

BECAUSE 10 MINUTES ON THE GOGAPRO IS EQUIVALENT TO ONE HOUR OF RESISTANCE TRAINING AT THE GYM. BUT WITHOUT THE SWEAT!

"Using the GOGA machine, your body is continuously being thrown off-balance- causing more than 3,000 muscles to contract at the same time within ten minutes. And the plus side is, you don't even have to wear your gym clothes to do it."

"It's an efficient, quick, easy way for individuals to achieve a workout that's good for them, good for their body."

THAT'S GOGA STUDIO OWNER JAN DESTASIO.

AND SHE EXPLAINS THE NUMEROUS BENEFITS GOGA HAS ON THE BODY.

"It helps with toning, firming, flexibility, balance. It increases our seratonin so it makes us happier. And so many other things that, um, go on and on and on."

AND SHE SAYS THAT SHE LIKES THE FACT THAT SHE CAN DO THIS ON HER LUNCH HOUR IN ONLY A MATTER OF MINUTES - AND GET THE SAME RESULTS THAN GOING TO THE GYM FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME.

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.Without any cold fronts headed for Southwest Florida anytime soon, our weather will stay unseasonably warm through the next several days.

The last cold front that made an approach on Southwest Florida has been fading and fizzling across Central Florida, and we expect this front to ultimately get washed out and stay north of us.

In the meantime, we stay in a warm and humid air mass. Morning temperatures today only cool to the low to mid 60s, and there's also the potential for some fog to develop through sunrise. Aside from some low clouds and morning fog, our sky should become mostly sunny from mid morning through the afternoon.

Temperatures will be the big story this week. Daytime highs today should easily reach the low to even mid 80s during the heat of the day, and temperatures will stay on track to get even warmer as we go through the week. In fact, there's actually a chance we'll come close to hitting record highs this week, especially on Wednesday and Thursday with our records at 85 and 86, respectively.

Aside from the unseasonably warm temperatures, we'll enjoy lots of sunshine as our sky stays partly cloudy through most of this week. The early mornings could be an exception, as we may have to contend with dense fog close to sunrise.

Rain chances will be pretty scarce this week with the absence of any big rain makers coming our way. Minus a few pop-up showers, our weather looks dry all the way through the upcoming weekend.

SMOKING PITFALLS-2SH

AND YOU MAY NOTICE SOME OF YOUR FRIENDS OR FAMILY MEMBERS WHO ARE IRRITABLE IN THE NEW YEAR --

ESPECIALLY IF THEY ARE TRYING TO KICK A BAD HABIT LIKE SMOKING.

A MAJORITY OF SMOKERS WANT TO QUIT -- MANY TRY -- FEW SUCCEED.

SMOKING PITFALLS-PKG

THE NEW YEAR BEGINS WITH CHEERS. A KISS IF YOU'RE LUCKY.

IF YOU'RE A SMOKER -- IT OFTEN MEANS A RENEWED COMMITMENT TO STOP SMOKING.

"At any given time, 70% of smokers say that they want to quit."

A FORMER SMOKER HERSELF, DR. CHERYL HEALTON AND HER TEAM AT THE AMERICAN LEGACY FOUNDATION SURVEYED 15-HUNDRED SMOKERS. OF THOSE WHO WERE MAKING A RESOLUTION FOR 2013 - A THIRD SAID IT'D BE TO QUIT SMOKING.

BUT WITHOUT HELP -- MOST OF THOSE GOOD INTENTIONS GO UP IN SMOKE WITHIN A WEEK. IF IT WAS A NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTION -- THAT'S TODAY.

"Not enough people use known tried and true methods. Lots of people try to just do it on their own instead of getting help."

HELP BEGINS WITH TALKING TO A DOCTOR -- WHO CAN RECOMMEND NICOTINE REPLACEMENT PRODUCTS OR PRESCRIPTION MEDICATIONS.

IT ALSO REQUIRES RE-LEARNING LIFE WITHOUT CIGARETTES.

"You have to kind of map out when you're used to having cigarettes and get work-arounds for all those times so that you reduce the kind of cravings that are associated with it."

IF YOU'VE RELAPSED SINCE NEW YEAR'S DAY. YOU'RE NOT ALONE.

SOME SMOKERS MUST TRY AS MANY AS 11 TIMES BEFORE THEY SUCCEED.

DO IT MONTHLY. AND YOU CAN RING IN 2014, SMOKE-FREE.
