However, Ripa stood by the decision, adding, "I said, 'I'm tired of waiting around for you to approve a picture. I've got to move."

Michael Keaton Remembers Working With Catherine O'Hara: 'Like Breathing Rarefied Air'

Two years ago,Oscar night. Backstage.Catherine O'Haraand I have mere minutes before we walk out to present, and we're riffing on how to make a funny entrance.

She says, "How 'bout when they introduce us, you go out real fast without waiting for me, and I'll go—'Hey, wait!'"

"Yeah. I like it. Let's do that," I say.

Ladies and gentlemen, here to present...

We enter. Do the bit. Crickets—mostly.

To this day, I replay it in my head, feeling like I let her down. Did I not sell it enough? Was I too subtle? Too real? I literally re-do the walk in my mind, trying to make it work.

With almost anyone else, I'd have forgotten it within seconds. But with her? It wasn't about the joke landing. It was because I liked her so damn much. To work comedically with Catherine, as I was lucky to get to do not just at the awards show but on twoBeetlejuicemoviesand projects likeThe PaperandGame 6across nearly 40 years, was like breathing rarefied air. And between takes, it was the greatest hang on set. The only thing better was the hang off set—in real life, as I call it.

When she talked to you, she talkedwithyou. When you told her a story, she looked right at you and was all in. A twinkle, a light, a glow—I don't know what the hell it was.

To make her laugh was such a joy.

We had made tentative plans to get together in January. She and her husband Bo were going to come over to the house for dinner. I'm still kind of waiting.

Since herunthinkable passing at 71 on Jan. 30, I mostly managed to avoid any clips of her on my phone or TV, but I got blindsided by one that popped up—couldn't avoid it. I watched. I felt sad. I turned off the light and closed my eyes to sleep.

About four minutes later, I woke myself up to the sound of laughing. It was me.

I smiled and fell asleep.

To have a woman as your friend is a great thing. To have a brilliantly funny woman as your friend is special. To have Catherine O'Hara as your friend is a blessing.

Among so many great comedians, past and present, Catherine stood out. Comedically? Gold. As a person? Platinum.

I'll have dinner with Bo. You have laughs with John Candy.

NEED TO KNOW

• Gayle King got visibly choked up on CBS Mornings as she reported on Savannah Guthrie and her siblings' emotional plea to their mother Nancy's abductor

• King called the situation "unimaginable" and "so, so scary"

• Guthrie's mother Nancy has been missing for five days and authorities believe the 84-year-old was taken from her Arizona home

Gayle Kingdidn't hold back when reporting on the news ofSavannah Guthrieand her siblings' emotional plea to their mother's presumed abductor.

On Thursday, Feb. 5,CBS Morningsopened with a shot of King and her stone-faced co-hosts, Vladimir Duthiers and Adriana Diaz, as they played footage from theGuthries' emotional Instagram video,which was released on Wednesday evening.

"We're starting things a little differently this morning because like you, we're all waking up this morning with very heavy hearts — praying for our friend and our colleague, Savannah Guthrie," King, 71, shared. "Her mom Nancy is still missing at this hour and late last night, the Guthrie family went public with a very emotional message."

King got visibly choked up with her voice shaking as she relayed details of the Guthries' video.

In the clip, the siblings discussed their 84-year-old motherNancy, calling her a "kind, faithful, loyal, fiercely loving woman." The trio then asked the abductor or abductors for proof that their mother is still alive amid reports of an unverified ransom note.

"We are all wishing that Nancy comes home," King said. "Everyone's talking about this story. It is an unimaginable situation for the Guthrie family."

The veteran journalist began to tear up, sharing the part of the video that affected her the most.

"Savannah just got to me where she says 'mommy,' " King said. "To hear a grown woman say, 'Mommy, we're all looking for you.' Everybody's looking for her."

King added that the situation is "something that none of us can imagine having to do," calling it "so frightening and so disturbing," adding, "I can't stop thinking about Savannah and her siblings putting that video message out."

Getting more emotional throughout the broadcast, King noted, "Your heart can't help but break for her."

Despite working on different networks, King and Guthrie have been friendly through their decades-long careers.

"We all know how close she was to her mother," King stated. "You keep seeing those pictures over and over and over again. We're trying to make sense of something that makes no sense. And that's why we keep struggling and gasping for something. Help us understand how this is happening, why this is happening and what we can do about it? It's so, so, so scary to me."

Nancy was last seen alive on the evening of Saturday, Jan. 31, by her daughter, Annie. Friends called the family on Sunday, Feb. 1, when Nancy failed to show up at church. She was reported missing to the authorities later that day.

In addition to local law enforcement, the FBI has now also gotten involved in the case. Anyone with any information on Nancy's disappearance or whereabouts is urged to contact 1-800-CALL-FBI.

Arizona Department of Public Safety helicopter crash kills 2 while responding to shootout

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (AP) — An Arizona Department of Public Safety helicopter crashed in an accident that killed the pilot and a trooper on board, after they responded to a gunbattle between police and a suspect who fired on officers from multiple rooftops over almost two hours, authorities said Thursday.

The confrontation began when law enforcement officers responded to a domestic violence call around 8:30 p.m. Wednesday, Flagstaff Police Chief Sean Connolly said during a news conference.

A man armed with a semiautomatic long rifle opened fire on the officers and victim and an almost two-hour shootout ensued, with the unidentified suspect "hopping from roof to roof" in the neighborhood while shooting at officers, Connolly said.

The man was brought into custody at about 10:20 p.m., around the time the helicopter accident occurred, Connolly said. He did not provide information on how the helicopter crashed but said it had been providing officers on the ground with an aerial view of what was happening.

The suspect suffered nonfatal gunshot wounds and was being treated at Flagstaff Medical Center, officials said.

No one else was injured. The names of the pilot and trooper, who was also a paramedic, were not released.

"Our city and our state have experienced a significant loss. We are part of this community," Connolly said.

The trooper who was killed had joined the Department of Public Safety in 2022, according to a Fraternal Order of Police organization in Arizona. The helicopter pilot had been hired in May 2021 and previously served 10 years in the U.S. Marine Corps, the organization said.

Michael Hunt, president of Arizona Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 32, called the deaths a "devastating moment" for Arizona's law enforcement community.

"Both the paramedic, and the pilot, a military veteran, made the ultimate sacrifice while supporting the mission," Hunt said in a statement.

A 'giant boom'

Amanda Brewer of Flagstaff said she and her husband heard close to 100 gunshots fired in their neighborhood beginning at around 8:40 p.m. and continuing after the helicopter arrived at about 10 p.m. Brewer heard three rounds of shots fired as the helicopter flew around, including three or four shots as the helicopter was over her house.

Then she could no longer hear the helicopter, there was a "giant boom", and their house shook. "It was so powerful and so loud," she said.

The Bell 407 helicopter that was built in 2004 crashed on Flagstaff's west side, a few miles from Route 66 in a less densely populated area to the north of Brewer's neighborhood. There was a fire afterward, according to the Federal Aviation Administration.

Earlier in the night, an emergency alert went out to mobile phones warning of an active shooter and urging people to stay clear of the area. People gathered outside of a gas station watching as dozens of police vehicles lined the streets.

Jasmin Parra, 32, was at home nearby with her family when police told them to stay inside, lock their doors and windows and not answer if anybody knocked, she said.

As the family kept low inside the house, the sound of gunfire got closer and they could hear police trying to talk the gunman down from a rooftop, Parra said.

There were several gunshots just before the house shook with what she thought was the helicopter crash, Parra said.

"Just all these emotions just flooded us because we didn't know" what was happening, she said.

Trained for high-risk

The helicopter crashed about 50 feet from a BNSF Railway line and spread debris across the tracks, according to the railway. Train traffic was halted overnight at the request of police and resumed Thursday morning, the railway said.

The FAA said it would assist the National Transportation Safety Board in the crash investigation. An email seeking information was sent to the NTSB early Thursday.

The state Department of Public Safety's Air Rescue Unit is trained for various high-risk situations, including mountain and water rescues.

Flagstaff Mayor Becky Daggett and members of Arizona's congressional delegation expressed sympathy for the families of the pilot and trooper.

"Tragic news. Please pray for their families and everyone involved," said U.S. Rep. Eli Crane, whose district includes Flagstaff.

"Heartbreaking news out of Northern Arizona this morning, and a grim reminder of the dangers law enforcement face," U.S. Rep. Greg Stanton wrote. "Praying for these officers' loved ones and the entire Arizona Department of Public Safety."

Over 22,000 Bottles of Cholesterol Medication Recalled Nationwide, FDA Reports

Zydus Pharmaceuticals has recalled 22,896 bottles of Icosapent Ethyl capsules

• The products were available via prescription and distributed across the U.S.

• Here's a list of impacted medication.

Over 22,000 bottles of cholesterol medication have beenrecalled, according to a U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA)report. Certain lots of the medication have been deemed "a subpotent drug."

Zydus Pharmaceuticals initiated the voluntary recall at the end of December, warning consumers that 22,896 bottles of Icosapent Ethyl capsules may have leaked and caused oxidation, ultimately decreasing the drug's strength. Additionally, the leakage may cause the capsules to offer "inconsistent therapeutic effects and an increase in potential gastrointestinal side effects in some patients."

Late last month, the FDA classified the recall as aClass II, meaning that it may have temporary or reversible negative health effects. The likelihood of serious health problems caused by the recalled products is "remote." Still, if you believe you have any of the recalled pills, consult your physician before stopping any medication.

Which products are affected?

The specific Icosapent Ethyl capsules that are a part of the recall were manufactured by Softgel Healthcare, issued via prescription only, and were distributed across the U.S. in 120-count bottles.

You can check to see if you have one of the affected products by matching up the following lot numbers and expiration dates:

Lot number: S2520304

• Expiration date: 2/28/2027

Lot number: S2520333

• Expiration date: 2/28/2027

Lot number: S2540186

• Expiration date: 4/30/2027

This particular recall comes on the heels of anothercholesterol medication, atorvastatin calcium, being pulled from shelves. Over 140,000 bottles of the drug were recalled by Ascend Laboratories back in October for concerns over dissolution problems.

What to do with the recalled product

No specific guidelines for discarding the product were provided by the FDA. However, if you have one of the recalled products, you should consult with a medical professional, as continuing to take the drug could result in inefficient treatment.

Panama will not be threatened by China over canal court ruling, leader says

PANAMA CITY (AP) — Panamanian President José Raúl Mulino on Thursday said he hoped an ongoing legal battle with a Hong Kong firm over operations of Panama Canal ports would "not escalate," but that Panama's government would remain firm in its ruling against the company.

Panama-Panama-Canal-Ports

"Panama is a dignified country and will not allow itself to be threatened by any country on earth," Mulino said in his morning press briefing, responding to rebukes by the Chinese government.

Mulino's comment comes a week after Panama's Supreme Court ruled that a concession held by a subsidiary of Hong Kong's CK Hutchison Holdings in the Panama Canal was unconstitutional.

The court's decision was seen as a win for President Donald Trump, whoaims to block Chinese influenceover the strategic waterway. The push by the U.S. thrust the Central American nation into the center of a geopolitical tug-of-war.

China warned Panama would pay "a heavy price" if the Panamanian ruling was upheld.

Hong Kong's CK Hutchison Holdings said it strongly disagreed with last week's ruling, and on Wednesday its subsidiary announced it hadstarted arbitration proceedings against Panama.

Mulino said that until the court's ruling is executed — a period of time he did not specify — Panama's Maritime Authority would work with Panama Ports Company, the CK Hutchison subsidiary, to ensurecontinuing port operations.

Once the concession is formally ended, a local subsidiary of Danish logistics company A.P. Moller-Maersk will operate the ports in a transitional phase until a new concession can be bid and awarded, Mulino said.

The two Panama ports are part of a $23 billion sale of CK Hutchison's 43 global ports to a consortium of buyers including U.S. investment firmBlackRock. The deal, which was first announced last March, has been delayed by complications surrounding the Panama court case as well as elevated geopolitical tensions between Washington and Beijing.

Analysts believe the Hong Kong conglomerate is likely to buy time with legal proceedings, such as the latest arbitration move, while looking for alternatives for the broader port deal.

Additionally, the Canadian native has also been charged with misdemeanor simple assault, summary harassment and summary disorderly conduct.

According to the release, the incident took place in the 100 block of South Pugh Street in State College around 8:45 p.m local time.

"It is alleged that McKenna struck a 21-year-old male in the face during the altercation resulting in facial injuries requiring corrective surgery," police stated of the incident.

The 21-year-old lost a tooth in the altercation and had his jaw wired shut, reported Penn State's student newspaper,The Daily Collegian,which cited the criminal complaint.

McKenna was arraigned on the charges and released on $20,000 bail, according to the statement. He is set to appear in court on Feb. 11 at 8:30 a.m. at the Centre County Courthouse in the neighboring town of Bellefonte.

"We are aware that charges have been filed; however, as this is an ongoing legal matter, we will not have any further comment," a spokesperson for Penn State said, according toESPNandSports Illustrated.
