And this comes after threats of violence at Major Shopping Centers by the terror group behind a deadly attack in africa. Lets get to Kristen Welker in bloomington, minnesota with the latest. Good morning to you. Reporter savannah, good morning. The mall of america is one of the busiest Shopping Centers in the world and this morning officials here are working around the clock to make sure the public is safe. Several Law EnforcementOfficials Say people should continue to go shopping, still they are calling for extra vigilance as this Terror Threat put this community and the nation on alert. Heightened security this morning at the iconic mall of america in the wake of a video released by the Somali Terrorist Group al shabab talking for attacks against malls specifically naming this one. The group has claimed responsibility for the 2013 terrorist attack against the westgate maul in kenya where more than 60 people were killed. Terrorists like al shabab look for soft targets like the west gate mall. They can cause a lot of death and get a lot of attention. Reporter the department of Homeland Security says its not aware of any specific credible plot against the mall of america, or any other Shopping Center in this country. Johnson is calling for public vigilance. Im not telling people to not go to the mall. I think that there needs to be awareness, there needs to be vigilance. Reporter a senior obama official says so far al shabab has not shown an ability to major operations outside east africa. The still the group hopes to m speier lone wolf operatives. Al shabab doesnt have the great capability to direct it themselves what they hope for is inspired actors around the world to do their bidding for them. Reporter al shabab has been aggressively recruiting westerners including in minneapolis, a city that has a large somali population.

Police even then ended up buying the rest of the cookies. So good happy ending to that story. Wow. Okay. Thank you. Lets send it back out to al in los angeles. Hey, lets take a look what else is going on around the country. You can see that ice storm is a big swath of problems. Weve also got wet weather making its way through Southern California, beautiful in the pacific northwest. The mid to upper 50s. Chilly conditions here, there, in the northeast. Were going to get to your local forecast coming up in the next 30 seconds. 7 13 good monday morning to you pipe meteorologist christina loren. Big difference in temperatures between san martin and San Francisco, a 20degree difference that has everything to do with where the wind is. Were getting that fierce wind in San Francisco, anywhere between 13 to 17 Miles Per Hour sustained. Meanwhile no wind in san martin letting the cold dense air settle in. Wind advisories should expire by 10 00 a. M. Temps in the mid50s by noon, mid60s to finish off the day. And thats your latest weather. Now to the first part of our exclusive interview with the family of Kayla Mueller. The american hostage who died while in the hands of isis. The family had to keep quiet during her captivity, hoping it would keep kayla alive. Her parents marcia and karl and brother eric are speaking out. Im still in denial. I expect her to come through the door. I hope i never forget that everything happens for a reason. Kayla mueller was passionate and fearless and tomorrowed to go to turkeys border to help. Were you afraid . I you saw such a joy in her with helping. It was something she was called to do. A long time ago i accepted they cant control my kids. I have to put her in gods hands and let him take care of her. It was her passion. It was us her friends and close friends. Didnt matter. You knew what a dangerous place this was . Oh, yes. She worked for support to life, helping refugee families. Did you know she was planning to go to syria . No. What do you think you would have thought . As her mother i wouldnt have let her go. I would have talked with her. Unbenounced to them when her syrian boyfriend was called to help a Doctors Without Borders hospital, she insisted on coming along and days later her parents got the call they feared most. It was 5 00 on august 5th. They said she had been detained because of support to life and they were sure it would be okay. Thats basically what they said. She was detained, but not to worry. Parquet kayla was in the custody of isis, then hardly known. When did you realize how serious this was . That day really. After that first call. They not only took our daughter but a year and a half 18 months of her life. There came a time where i understand you heard from her captors. What can you tell me about what they said . They gave us her full name and said she was with them and she was their prisoner and told us what we needed to do to get her home. I feel we had a chance to get kayla out. We were in communications with them unlike the other families. How do you raise 6. 2 million . It pretty much made it impossible. We feel they did want to release kayla. Unable to raise the money and barred them from paying a ransom in any event, they can only watch as the other hostages were brutally executed one by one. How did you handle such a thing . I thought and prayed that she would be freed. Do you feel the government did enough to help her . I think they wanted to but i think again the policy and i dont think anyone had any idea this group would be as powerful as they were. They just thought of them as a gang or thugs. But again, it goes back to we are so isolated in america. We are so in our own little area that we dont see whats going on over there during this time. The u. S. Traded five taliban for bo berg dal. The whole situation, the demands got greater and larger and they realized they had something and if they are going to lead five people go for one person, why wont they do this or that . Did you feel why that trade is okay and something similar is not okay for kayla . Actually we asked the president that question when we were in the white house. That was pretty hard to take. Earlier this month, the muellerss worst fears were realized. Isis claimed kayla had been killed in a Jordanian Air strike. Did you hope against hope that somehow it wasnt true . Yes. Thats all that group does is lie. They lie and its a propaganda thing. They try to push their agenda. We had faith. Ultimately you were given some kind of proof so that you knew. Uhhuh. Publicly we asked for them. They should have told us rather than tell the world. They should have told us. We asked that they knew how to message us. To message us. And they did. You are always learning about yourself through other people. She was loving. She was joyful she was peaceful. Kayla taught us so much. And i think thats what i will remember about kayla being our little girl. Now the muellers are devoted to continuing kaylas work. We want the world to help us let kayla still use her hands to give to the world and to help the people that are suffering. Especially the Syrian People right now. They have been through so much. Thats what kaylas heart is right now. They are an extraordinary family who dealt with something with extraordinary grace. Why she was such a special young woman as well. Incredible. We have so much more to talk about. Next hour we will tell you about how kayla is honoring her. What they believe about how she was treated in isis custody and they shirt with us Something Special and dear the last letter kayla wrote from captivity. A lot of people asked was it naive of her to travel to that region . We will have the familys response and more of the interview including the response to disturbing reports that kayla may have been forced to marry an isis fighter in captivity. We will talk about that with the u. S. Special forces. So much to talk about. Coming up we will shift gears. The crisis facing the nations 911 system and why Emergency Responders may not be able to find you when you need the most. And matt . Savannah messages from the winners and the trend sparked by something Reece Witherspoon had to say. But first on a monday morning, this is today on n. Which dresses and tuxedos shine brightest at the oscars. Ohhh. I remember this day. He got so many compliments on this costume. Today is stanleys big day. Happy birthday, stanley. Hes five. I was able to determine that stanley is an aquarius. Ohh, aquarius. Thats so fitting. Throughout the whole journey petsmart has been there for us. Well get you looking great for your birthday party. Morgan here is a pisces. Such an intellect. Really . Yes, yes. Big thinker. Huh . Pethoods better with a partner. Thats why petsmart has all you need to take care of your kids.

It is 7 26. Im laura garciacannon. Investigators at the scene of a series of Early Morning car fires in camp bell may have been intentionally set. All three cars burned in the parking lot of an apartment complex near winchester boulevard. Investigators do not believe the fires are connected to similar car fires in the south bay just a few months ago. One man is under arrest accused of stealing money from a girl scout troupe. The girls were selling cookies in front of a san jose satisfyfeway when someone ran up swiped the cash and took off. 23yearold cody gintz later came back to the parking lot to get his car. Officers got his license plate, nab himd and a cash pot containing more than 100. The Oakland Coliseum commission is apparently on the clock tweb comes to a new raiders stadium deal. The proposed shared stadium in Southern California may be the best game plan if progress on a new bay area stadium does not have one within the next month.

And theres a question that is really burning the minds of everyone in america right now. Just who will earn the coveted golden hanger . Look at that angelic hanger. Some people want an oscar, others just strive for the golden hanger. Good morning, im Savannah Guthrie alongside tamron hall and Natalie Morales. I have never even heard of the golden hanger. It comes with that angelic music. Remember the movie swingers when they go vegas, baby and later it is like vegas, baby. But we were at the oscars so tired. First well take a look at what is making headlines this morning. Once again, the bitter cold is returning to much of the country today as the mercury dips up to 32 degrees below normal in some places and freezing rain is expected to cause travel problems from texas to georgia. Security is being stepped up at some of the nations largest malls including the mall of america. It comes in the wake of a new video from an Al Qaedalinked terror group urging attacks in the u. S. , canada and europe. And close arguments could begin as early as today in the american sniper trial, but first rebuttal witnesses to call. Eddie ray routh is facing life without parole if convicted in the killings of chris kyle and chad littlefield. We will begin with more on the 87th Academy Awards.

Heres an interesting stat from last night. All eight of the best picture nominees that were nominated for best picture, one at least won oscar. And that is what opened the door for a variety of speeches hitting all kinds of social issues. Winners delivered emotional messages with the world watching. I love you, babe. In the movie boyhood Patricia Arquette plays a single mom and talked about this in her speech. Its our time to have Wage Equality once and for all and equal rights for women in the United States of america. Merrill streep responded and so did twitter. Kathy griffin wrote i love you, Patricia Arquette. Preach it, sister. Anyone who can take that opportunity to eliminate the disparity in our culture and in this entire world is very great, very great. Reese witherspoon harolded the movement ask her more to ask women about their careers, not their clothes. Social messages dominated the oscars which was criticized for a lack of diversity.

Later in the night a stirring performance of glory from the civil rights movie selma brought down the house, the song won an oscar. People are marching with our song.

We are starting a special series called emergency 911. When you call for help you assume you are going to be found but dont be so sure. He has an eyeopening investigation. Good morning to you. Savannah good morning to you. We have been investigating this for you. I assume when i call 911, they are tracing my exact location but thats not the case in many places. The system is so old they cant find you 60 of the time when you need the most. Victims are dying. One of the most recent cases is absolutely heart breaking. The victim using her final breaths begging the dispatcher for help. 911, whats your emergency some. Im in a car in a lake. You are listening to a panicked woman trapped inside her sinking suv. Where . Where are you . The lake. She was delivering newspapers in the dark in suburban atlanta when she careened into this pond. She knew where she was. The fairway and baitsville. Baitsville and what . Fairway. I dont have that. 911 dispatchers cant find her on the map. Time ticking away. Im losing air very quickly. Give me the address one more time. Its not working. The fairway it took First Responders nearly 20 minutes to get to her. Maam . I lost her. Chanel didnt make it. You are telling me 911 doesnt have the capability to locate someone . That is absolutely absurd. Turns out 911 centers rely on nearby cell towers to locate you. A gaping hole in the system 50 exposed by wxias brendan keith. It stops at the city line. You hit a cell tower outside their jurisdiction they dont know where you are. Thats what happened to chanel. She hit a cell tower outside the county line. This is dated technology and many 911 call centers continue to use it. Dated because these days our smart phones know where we are. Why not use that technology . This is where chanels suv went into the pond. The exact location. If i click on the map app, watch this. Watch that dot. It will tell you exactly within seconds where i am. Down to the pond location. I could order food or a car to this precise location. Yet if i called 911 right now, who knows . 911, where is your emergency . The problem is so bad, watch this. Lets do a test of 911 calls. 911, whats your emergency . This is jeff rossen with nbc nows. I just want to know if you can tell me where is our location. Im showing 4641. Thats about a quarter mile away. We are in the actual 911 center. Thats correct. They still cant find me. Thats correct. Who is responsible for fixing the system . The federal communications commission. Things must get better. The fcc chairman tom wheeler sitting down with me. What are do you do . This is a challenge we have to take and have taken head on. The fcc has oversight over wireless carriers but not local 911 centers. Now pushing new rules to get everyone in line. The new rules you adopted demand 40 accuracy for the next two years. How bad is it if within two years the goal is 40 . I think thats not a great number. We have to push to make sure that both the wireless carriers and the local 911 folks are prepared to be able to exceed that and give the expectation that you and i have a right to have when you call 911. For chanels family thats not good enough or fast enough. Her death was so senseless. Our 911 system doesnt work. So difficult listening to that 911 call. The fcc chairman making headlines in the interview, saying they are developing a 911 app like uber for 911. I asked when it will be ready, but there is no time table yet. They need to get going on that. A lot of people were surprised at that. Thank you so much. Coming up a lot more of our interview with Kayla Muellers family.

There was a great moment at the vanity fair party. Al was working the red carpet and i had the opportunity. We had never seen an oscar party this intense. This was one of the moments where you know your place in the hollywood universe. I walked in behind jennifer aniston. I could have worn jlos dress and i wouldnt have one picture taken of me. It was incredible the attention they generated. The press out there, the photographers are so quiet. So demure and dignified. Up top up top that would not have been the first time you wore jlos dress. Thats why i chose that. Take it away. You mentioned oscar fashions and we will have a lot more coming up.

Security has been heightened at the mall of america in minnesota after video from the Somali Terror Group Al Shabaab called for attacks on shop malls and named this in particular. Despite the threat they are not aware of any specific credible plot against mall of america or any other mall but they are urging people to be vigilant. Rudy giuliani is seeking to clarify comments he made last week when he told republican donors he doesnt believe the president loves america. In a piece in the wall street journal, he said i didnt intend to question president obamas motives or the content of his heart, but my intend focus really was the effect his words had on the morale of the country and his performance. He hopes the intention behind his words can lead to what he calls a real conversation about national leadership. Another blast of arctic air covers much of the nation from montana to texas and the midwest and heading here to the east. Kerry sanders is shivering on lake erie. Its negative 10 degrees. When you say im on the lake im on lake erie. This is the fourth largest of the great lakes. Its about the size of vermont. There were people out here early this morning. As we look over here there is an air boat coming in skimming across the surface of the ice here. This is at least 12 inches and some places much thicker than 12 inches. About three miles from here there a group of fishermen doing ice fishing. They think this is a great opportunity and a lot of fun. The reason people use boats rather than just driving out on the ice, you think it would support the the weight of a car. If the ice breaks you have a boat that will stay up. They have had experience where cars have gone through the ice when somebody thought it was going to hold. Right now the best advice i have learned is layers. Stay warm. Natalie. Absolutely. Kerry sanders on lake eerie. Lets get another check of the weather from al in los angeles. Good morning. We talk about icing conditions right now. Texas into the southwest.

Dakota johnson walked the carpet with her mom, Melanie Griffith which is adorable. That oscar moment from 2000. How cute is that . It was less cute and got a little uncomfortable. Melanie was asked has she seen 50 shades. No. No. You dont want to see it . I dont think i can. I dont think so. I think one day you can see it. She is a really good actress. I dont see to see that to know how good she is. You dont want to see it. A little insight into that family dynamic. You can see why dakota was twitters most talked about star on the red carpet. Wow. I think they were being funny. I dont know. Definitely awkward. We did see a lot of great performances, but many are saying lady gaga stole the show. She sang a medley of songs from the sound of music celebrating their 50th anniversary this year. The hills are alive with the sound of music, with songs they have sunk for a thousand years these are a few of my favorite things incredible, right. Julie andrews herself came out and surprising gaga and giving her that huge hug. She said it warmed her heart. It was perfect. There should be an oscar for performance at the oscars. That was beautiful and not easy to pull off. So much of her persona is distracted with the costumes, but hearing her voice. It is a beautiful voice. Lets go back out to l. A. That was one of my top two moments. I love that. It was great. Thank you very much. All the excitement on oscar night starts on the red carpet and al was there. I got to stake out a great spot mingling with all the stars. Bright green. Its guacamole. You are the only person here i trust. How is my bow tie. You look fantastic. Great. A lot of stuff going on. Yeah. You mean when i build it by hand, i do. It takes a long time. How long . This one took me over 25 minutes. Wow i worked out so i feel able to hold up this dress. Good to see you. How excited are you to be here tonight . Im thrilled. Ecstatic. I cant believe it. Its a validation so to be nominated for best picture means that it worked. You look fantastic. Thank you. You do too. No, you. You. You. Check this out. Come on. Blue birds oscar. Doesnt get any bigger. Im shocked they let me in. You take the mental snapshots and that way you remember it. It was a great night. We are joined by our stylist and the host of tlcs style by jury. Thelma and louise. Lets go with the standouts. You liked rosalin. She was a bouquet of flowers. She was beautiful. What i loved the most was that undone tress of hair that finished the look so it didnt look so put together. Did you see that on her pullback . She just had a baby. Its everything. Louise, scarlet johansson was a standout. No one else wore green and i havent seen the undercut. She walks up with this punky hairdo and ear cuffs and it was a huge trend of the night. I happened to walk past emma stone and everything about her looked beautiful. The color against her skin and hair. Her hair was amazing. Look at it. She was the number one most favorite celebrity. You also liked Reece Witherspoon. I sure did. Heres whats up. I love that she started a campaign called ask her more. She threw a snap to a classic gown and tom ford who we were awing over just the other day. It was great. Two got mixed opinions and mixed reviews. As fashion experts, we have to give props to those and this was at the back. She turned around, but the low bustle and the couture, a beautiful perforated fabric and something different. You can see the back of the gown and it changes. A classic shape. Two piece. A twist on it. If you like people who take chances, what did you think of Gwyneth Paltrow . Absolutely gorgeous. Shocked. It was an unusual dress. Anyone else i love it. Look at the rose detail. The fuchsia earrings. Anyone else could have looked prom. She didnt. She is elegant. Look at this. We were sitting around just us girls talking and i said i thought lupitas dress was stellar. Its cool because a lot of people questioned the artistic moment of it. 6,000 pearls. It is quite beautiful and so decadent. Its a delicious dress. Dont compare her to last year. Let her live this moment. You can only wear that to the oscars. I agree. I will have to interview some of these people down the road. I love julianne. Please. I cant look at you right now. I cant. The dress is beautiful. I thought it looked so mother of the bride. What . Chanel couture took 900 hours to make. We can agree to disagree on this. At some point we will talk about the men and other people like this. Ladies, thank you very much. Of course. Sorry you had to do this with me and lets go back to savannah in new york. Thank you so much and well turn to the family of Kayla Mueller. The first interview since kayla died while in the hands of the terror group isis. They opened up about how they want kayla to be remembered. Whenever we talk about kayla now, it is with kaylas hands. In their pain, Kayla Muellers family found a purpose. She had to do something with her hands to help people. As long as she was, she was joyful. They are announcing a foundation devoted to the causes kayla cared for with a name that has special meaning. Kaylas hands. When she was home in may, i was holding her hands. I got teary and said kayla, i dont want to let go of your hand. She said you will also have my hand. You are continuing the work. Right. In 26 short years, she lent a hand in many of the worlds bleakest places. Even as a young girl, she was consumed with the desire to help whether it was returning veterans, those battling aids or the middle east. Suffering mankind hurt her. The only time we never saw her is when she was home to earn enough money to buy a plane ticket to go back to work. The passion and devotion were undeniable. She travelled to syria to help refugees. Some question what a young woman like her was doing in such a dangerous place. Was it reckless . Well, yeah, it was overenthusiastic and who wasnt . We all made mistakes that were naive and didnt get caught at. Kayla was in a place that was more dangerous than most. Couldnt help herself. She had to help. For 18 months, kaylas family was desperate to help her. With few few glimmers of hope. In one she wrote i have been treated with the utmost respect and kindness. She said she was being treated well. Do you believe she was . I know they were. We talked to other hostages. Well is a well because she was considered a commodity. I think a lot of that too was kayla trying to make us feel better. It will be okay, mom. Dont worry, i will be okay. In the home where kayla grew up, there are signs of her everywhere, her father cherishing the letters and cards she wrote as a girl. You can read that in the fine print. Your dreams are mine. My dreams are yours. Thats just the way she was. This is kaylas room. Her room as she left it with the treasures from her travels. You had a nickname for her. Karl gave her the nickname. We called her sk that stood for special k. She was special. Above all kayla adored her niece, alexis grace. She devoted most of her final letter home to her, a letter her mother shared publically. My heart longs to be with you all. I never felt before, but praise be to god. You are in my dreams almost every night. In brief moments that we are together, i am given a warmth. So what i have to say to all my loved ones is that i will always love you. She just didnt have enough power as one little person. Maybe we can get the world behind her hands. To hear more about kaylas hands on our website. There is a link to it and we put the text of her final letter with a link to that foundation. Other mueller family treasures are posted including something that is remarkable. They found a list of what appears to be kaylas goals in her room. We put that on our website. We will have a lot more on today, including the dangerous rescue kaylas boyfriend attempted inside syria. What happened and what her parents feel about that attempt and how they feel about him today. There is much more to the story. Back in a moment. First on a monday morning, your local news. A very good monday morning to you. Im laura garciacannon. According to the chronicle a Group Representing latenight commuters conducted its own study.

Single digit frosty. Its going to be cold. Something to look forward to. Coming up, what do the stars do after the awards . They hit the parties along with this man.

If youre trying to make outdoor plans, sunday looks better. More sunshine and warmer temperatures. Lets get more of the oscar after party. You were the busiest man on our team yesterday. Not only did you do the red carpet, but you hit a lot of parties afterwards. I also made your tux. I wanted to have the ultimate oscars. We have the ultimate vanity fair extravaganza. We love sexy ladies. Thank you. Its a heck of a party. Its ridiculous. God help anyone ordering takeout. I will kick them out. You are wearing pants today. Good night no underwear. When was the last time you danced barefoot . It has been a while. This party every year is like the must go to party. We have live music and they feel as if it is one big party. I think the main part is they know they are not coming to a party just to watch the oscars. After they have been there and they had fun, they go home and said i made a difference to some peoples lives. Its not an oscar night unless you and i get there. People will say we are in love. Its time for to you shake your way over to vanity fair. Vanity fair time, baby. From the adams family. How are you, my love . Its been pretty fantastic. You have something to celebrate. Yeah. Not a dry eye in the house. So moving for all of us. Its the end of our selma journey. I was wiping davids tears. Your movie was wine. Your parties are known for wine. Which is going to have more . This is tame compared to that. You ready to party . Im ready as always. Which rob lowe was here . I was trying to leave the poorly dressed rob lowe at home. Miley she is not stopping. Miley needs to pass. I dont know. The same time it took to shoot boyhood. Mr. Lauer. You and i have to be up in about 3 1 2 hours. Do you think you can sneak me in . Yes. Im going with idina. Going with edina. How about that room. You see all those stars. Its hard to get impressed sometimes in hollywood. You see that and go wow. You dont have to be a winner to have a winning night. The swag bag was worth 160,000. You put it all together and give us a peek inside. The founder of distinctive assets. Nice to see you. Please take this the right way. That seems over the top. Thats a lot of cash. Its not cash. A lot of value. These are valuable stars. I think 20 million for a film is a lot of money. How do you go about putting this together . We are always looking for news products. One of the items i love this is a total home spa and a gift certificate. It converts your existing home shower into a spa shower. Thats fantastic. We also have something as simple as dove antiperspirant. Lg the tone wireless stereo head set. These are so comfortable and retractable. Perfect for traveling. Often like a bow tie. We also have we include a trip from terra bella tours. The camping luxury hot air ballooning and biking is part of this. We didnt want them to bring their own bikes. This is all monochromatic. Fantastic and we had silver. They are offering a years worth of free car rentals worth 20,000. Even gas is included. Its also about giving back. Ellen degeneress company is giving the nominees a chance to have a donation made. A 10,000 meal donation to an animal shelter. They all redeemed the gift certificate. You gave them to the nominees who did not win and plus one for neal Patrick Harris. This is the consolation prize. If they are sad they didnt win, this will be a nice prize right at their doorstep. They dont have to lug it around at the vanity fair product. Do the stars have to pay taxes on this . This is a business gift so the fair market value is taxable. If they dont take one of the amazing trips we have if they dont go to the grand hotels they are not taxed on that. The value can come down quickly. You did an amazing job. Good to see you. A moment we have been waiting for. Natalie models the results of our challenge. Just about 12 hours. But first, this is today on nbc. Back at 8 41. Our next guest was hard at work armed with a bolt of red fabric. We challenged allstar williams to recreate the daring red gown and it is time to check out the finished product. Natalie is going to be our model. Good morning to you. Should we bring her out . Natalie, come on down the runway. Whoa looks absolutely beautiful. Okay. This is amazing. We saw her dress. We had just gotten red fabric and you went for it. How did do you it . I picked up a couple of fabrics to see something red onned rhett carpet. I didnt have lace but i had red leather that was left over. That gives the same look with the belt. I used that and i tried to do the scalloping detail on the neck line. We kind of have a slows enough dress to what it would have been for me to have done it in five or six hours. How did it go with the fitting . Was there last minute things to do . She was great. We worked on it earlier this morning. Rather than the dresses, its fabulous and beautiful. You did it in how many hours . Five hours . She didnt sleep at all. What was the trickiest about it . Aside from the fact that you didnt have the fabric. I didnt really know how i was going to make a dress that looks the way the lace detailing has it. Its not anything close to that fabric, but i think me having this red leather that made that pop with the colors. You can see at least the detailing. You do. I can hear tim gunn saying it works. She made it work. I made it work. Yes. We wont say what they say. Exactly. Thank you so much. What a good sport you are and very well done. Thank you. You were just here on fashion week. I did a show and it was called athletic explorer and it was based off of a woman who wanted to be comfortable and fashionable at the same time. You can look at my stuff on my website and yeah. We will see you in the future a lot. A lot more on the oscars and the fashions coming up. First, this is today on nbc.

For the first ten months of their lives, they were as close as sisters can be. For conjoined twins, healthy, tweet loving babies who had two very separate sprnltspersonalities. Natalie is playful and talk live and the wild child. Adline is calm and quiet. For them to grow up they would have to face a series of incredibly complex operations including the big one, separation surgery. They would have the potential of an independent life. They had more than 50. There were lots and lots of planning. The team used the most cutting edge technology. Including an exact model of the twinss anal me and they conducted simulations of the surgery. Definitely excited and nervous. On tuesday, it was finally time. An agonizing flood of emotion. Tears and reassurance. All right, ready . Yes, sir. Take good care of them, okay. Hour after hour it went on. Yea and on. We had some challenge there is that we had to work through. And on. Stable as can be. Brothing well. Blood pressure is great. Then after 18 hours the babies are separate. And it continues. The medical marathon some call a miracle lasting more than 24 hours. There more surgeries to come but for the first time in their lives, they are living apart and doing well. For today, janet shanley, nbc news, houston. Oh, my gosh. That is beautiful.

I was affected by the weather before that. I got here because i was in miami for the food and wine festival. The wine and Food Festival i fedexd my tuxedo ahead so it would be waiting for me. But it got stuck in memphis, because of that ice storm, not fedexs fault, but there you have it. Anyway, the fine people at Brooks Brothers on rodeo drive, i went there saturday afternoon at 5 00 and they had a tux for me at 11 00 sunday morning. Because you were one of the most best dressed, most handsome men on the carpet and it benefited them to have al roker in their suit. In a parallel universe it would be true but that said everything from the shirt, the tie, the shoes, everything. A big thanks to the folks. Frankie included. You looked handsome. If you didnt stay up late, well pick through some of it for you. Birdman won best picture. Most people thought it would be that or boyhood. Julianne moore for best actress in still alice. Eddie redmayne for best actor in theory of everything. And Patricia Arquette won for best actress in boyhood. She gave a speech about equal pay for women. And this created one of the most important nights moments of the night where they cut to merrill streep. We have video of it. The big point. Jlo too. You go. She was like say it preach preach it say amen. That spread like wildfire around the web. Al, did you have a favorite moment as you watched last night . I could sense, i knew something was up when i saw John Travolta walking the red carpet. I said something is going to happen here. Then the hollywood gods smiled on us. Roll the tape. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome to the stage my very dear friend. I deserve that. I deserve that. But you, my darling, my beautiful, my wickedly talented edina menzel. John will be back to apologize next year for all the face touching. That was so awkward. You are watching and its like what are you doing . What . No stop it now stop it now its like let her face go. He had another awkward moment with scarlett johansson. Whats that . What is he doing . Thats like the wrap around hug. Wow it goes back to the conversation. Etiquette. Knowing how to touch. Right here, guys. No hands on the face never. No hands on the face. No in the ear, stop it. The bit was good. The thing is you bring edina out and she said his name wrong. He looked like he was a howler monkey grooming her. She is just like this is not happening. He was pulling her face. I have to give it to him, we are all talking about him once again, right . The actor. It worked. Thats an old p. R. Move. At least were talking about it. We may be laughing about you, but we are talking about you. The most awkward of the evening. My favorite moment. John legend comments with the song glory. It had everyone in tears. Take a look. Glory chris pine there crying with all the backdrop of the bridge and having all those people walk those steps in a sense that so many did that day to inspire the film, that changed this country. It was major. Just to see everyone crying and the contrast. That moment was just amazing. We talked about gaga singing as well and how great she was. That moment was just amazing. She was incredible. Phenomenal. The raw talent on the stage, john legend incredible talent to watch that. And then their incredible speeches. How smart and conscious both guys are. That package together is incredible. That common name is salony lynn and john is john they said his real name. When they say it they say, who just won . Their actual name. There was a pause. Who . Oh we talked about so many great acceptance speeches as well. Early on the first award went to best supporting actor whiplash in jk simmons who won. And he gave one of those housing speeches that made you want to pick up the phone and call your parents right away. Listen. Call your mom. Call your dad. If you are lucky enough to have a parent or two alive on this planet. Call them. Dont text or email. Call them on the phone and tell them you love them and thank them and listen to them for as long as they want to talk to you. Thank you. Thank you, mom and dad. Awe. It was just so sweet. And earlier he was thanking his kids that led him down that road. Thats just fantastic. I could listen to his voice forever. He is so good. Another incredible speech was for graham moore. Maybe not a household name but Everybody Knows him winning for best adaptive screenplay as a writer for the imitation game. He talked about his personal struggle and an attempt at suicide. When i was 16 years old, i tried to kill myself. Because i felt weird and i felt different and i felt like i did not belong. Now im standing here and so i would like for this moment to be for that kid out there who feels like shes weird or different or doesnt fit in anywhere. Yes, you do. I promise you do. Stay weird, stay different and when its your turn and you are standing on this stage, please have the same message to the next person that comes along. Thank you so much stay weird, stay different. Stayweird was actually trending after that. A young guy like that. The writer and director of whiplash is in his mid20s. Theres a whole new generation coming up in hollywood thats changing what we watch. So true. A lot more to talk about at the oscars but we do have an update that we shared with you last week. We told you the story of a british woman visiting new york at the times square area and she lost a necklace that is priceless. You cannot put a price tag on it. It was given to her by her teenager daughter who died of hodgkins lymphoma two years ago. And had her daughters fingerprint and her sisters fingerprint on the necklace. Guess what. It was found. In the sea of humanity in new york, freddie and emily ortiz bent down to pick up his toddlers sock and saw the necklace. They connected on facebook. Heres vickis reaction. Its just incredible. It really shows what can happen when a bit of positive thinking and love comes together. We found it. Its amazing. Thank you. So true. Positive thinking and good will and people allaround. They came together. Allowing people that opportunity. This is every parents nightmare. In times square in the snow. There it was. Incredible. Meanwhile, a lot of people can relate to this one. We often, moms dads have a hard time getting things done. Heres what was created by this blogger called why moms get nothing done. Ester anderson showing us how she tries to get things done with her baby daughter. Take a look. And im going to take these out. Thats the cutest thing. So cute. Thats so true right . No sooner you put it away and they take it all out. Oh. Nice work there. Unloading now. Look at that little belly. Oh my gosh. Cute. We could watch her all day. Priceless. Absolutely. Lets head back out and through some of the parties that you did but first a look at the weather. Announcer todays weather is brought to you by trivago. Com. Hotel trivago. All right. Well show you what weve got. We are looking at icy weather right now taking place in northern texas. In fact, all along i35 we are looking at icing conditions. Stretching back to the southwest where parts of new mexico and arizona they have School Delays or closures. Winter storm warnings in the dallas area, sleet mixing with freezing rain. Some thunderstorms, this is all pushing to the east as the morning and early afternoon rolls on. From texas into louisiana, parts of mississippi as well, icing is going to be a big, big problem. Tenth of an inch to a quarter of an inch of ice from jackson all the way into Central Texas. Roads are a mess. Airport delays, dallas ft. Worth airport already canceling a thousand flights today. Thats whats going on aro rounding out is the day in the low 60s. Were going who warm you up through the mid serks of the week. Hope you have a great day. Enjoy the temperatures. Because all throughout the northeast and the Midatlantic States temperatures are dropping all day bottoming out in the Single Digits. And we have more cold air coming in on wednesday. It never ends. Were up in the 40s yesterday and right back down to the Single Digits today. How does 40 feel . Tropical. Gosh, i was in my shorts yesterday. Not really thats ridiculous.

It never dawned on me that it could hurt your teeth. My dentist has told me your enamel is wearing away, and that sounded really scary to me and i was like well can you fix it can you paint it back on and he explained that it was not something that grows back, its kind of a onetime shot and you have to care for it. He told me to use pronamel. Its gonna help protect the enamel in your teeth. It allows me to continue to drink my coffee and to eat healthier and it was a real easy switch to make. The acceptance speeches certainly a memorable night and here to take us through it, a Senior Editor at variety. Overall it seemed good and then you start reading online and what do you think their reaction was . It started out strong and it went down. They hijacked a little bit of neal Patrick Harris. He wasnt having fun with the audience. There was no pizza or selfies of the audience. He was too rigid. They said he has to be able it improvise and play and be in the moment. I think he failed that he wasnt in the moment. The wroting was not very good. I thought it was good. He should have been done the whole show like that. He is ripped, this guy. Great shape. The speeches from the winners, this year more so than the previous years. It seems like it was really heart felt. I was looking for the best part of the night. They were passionate from Patricia Arquette talking about wage disparity. Talking about als because he played steven hawking from the theory of everything to the win for selma talking about civil rights and voting rights. Everyone crying. That was the highlight the fact that people were passionate about it and did it in a respectful way. Hearing a lot about that something that is sparked by Reece Witherspoon. Did you get a sense of that on the red carpet . Its a campaign to encourage reporters on ask women more than who are you wearing . I think her point is that she wanted to be more about your brain than what you look like. What about Julianne Moore . She was incredible and wearing a custom chanel gown that took 1,000 hours to make. 80000 beads. There was so much detail and she stole the show. I loved her dress. Some people dont love it. I think its great. As a passion person i appreciate a risk. I loved the shape and the detail. The party was in the back. A party in the back. Party in the back. I loved that. Like the mullet of dressing. Absolutely. Thats fantastic. Lupita was stunning. It locked so beautiful against her skin tone and fit her to perfection and i thought she looked incredible. You were not crazy about felicity jones. It was too processy. I would like to see her in something sexier. She is a gorgeous woman, but she could have done something edgier. It looked big on the red carpet. Lady gagas outfit the dress was fine. It was the red gloves that were killing me. They look like emergency jack hammers. She redeemed herself in her performance. Did she ever. A lot of the guys wear blue tuxes. A lot of unexpected colors. Yellow and red. I love that they stepped out of the box. Thank you so much. Thank you.

So he talked to me about xarelto®. Xarelto® is the first oral prescription blood thinner proven to treat and help prevent dvt and pe that doesnt require regular blood monitoring or changes to your diet. For a prior dvt i took warfarin, which required routine blood testing and dietary restrictions. Not this time. While i was taking xarelto®, i still had to stop racing, but i didnt have to deal with that blood monitoring routine. Dont stop taking xarelto®, rivaroxaban, unless your doctor tells you to. While taking xarelto®, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. Xarelto® may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. Xarelto® can cause serious bleeding, and in rare cases, may be fatal. Get help right away if you develop unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. If you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto®, watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle related signs or symptoms. Do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. Tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. Before starting xarelto® tell your doctor about any conditions such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. Xarelto® is proven to reduce the risk of dvt and pe, with no regular blood monitoring and no known dietary restrictions. Treatment with xarelto® was the right move for me. Ask your doctor about xarelto® today. Yoplait has the only yogurt brands endorsed by Weight Watchers and your taste buds have always endorsed us. So, you know what this means.

With natalie and tamron here in new york, we had a long night hanging out with the stars. One of the hottest tickets in town. How was it . I wasnt sure who you were talking about. It was a great night at the Elton John Aids Foundation party. Dark and rainy outside, but under the tent in West Hollywood the stars were out in force. I caught up with elton and hit the dance floor as well. We made it over here to the aids foundation viewing party. Plenty of wit and celebration and of smooth sophistication. This party every year is like the must go to party. Besides raising money for such a worthy cause why do people come back every year . I think they come back because they feel they actually enjoy themselves and feel good about coming because they have donated money to a good cause and know that the cause or our foundation will get the money to the right place without wasting it. Are you going to be dancing tonight . What do you think . There disco balls everywhere. Is it like mistletoe . Yes and we have to boogie a little bit. Every year we get cleaned up and you come on out. Yeah well, its 23 years of doing it for elton like we are best buddies. Have you met elton . He has glasses. I have seen him. Im going to sneak in.

We dont have time. Well good morning, everyone. 9 56. Im scott mcgrew. Oakland port workers back on the job thanks to a new deal but labor issues linger. Long shoremen yesterday took a break yesterday, violating port rules. The port then sent all the workers home. Last night an arbitrator ordered the longshoremen back to work. The union calls the brief work stoppage, quote, a misunderstanding. It did not affect operations at other west coast ports. Happening today, a highend call girl is expected back in court in connection with a deadly overdose of a google executive. Prosecutors say she injected the google executive with a deadly dose of heroin. It happened 16 months ago on hayes yacht in santa cruz. She faces felony manslaughter charges for leaving the boat. Lets check your weather this morning. Thank you, scott. We still have a little bit of wind out there. That will continue to drop off as we head throughout the day today. Temperatures are going to be right about on track with our seasonal averages if not just a touch above. A brief return to wintertime for today. Then things are going to start to change. For today, windy and cooler at least for the first part of the day. Cold start as we head throughout the next couple days but nice warm finishes with temperatures close to the 70s. Then we do have a really good chance for showers as we get into the end of the week and the weekend. Well have your full forecast today at 11 00. Right now, we want to check your drive, see if thats looking better. Heres mike inouye. In some parts, its looking better. Others not so much. Look over here around the bay, and you have a pretty typical pattern. Well call out a couple issues. Southbound 280 still very slow coming down toward woodside. The earlier crash has cleared from the area. You see this recovery, but its still jammed up. The rest of 101 through the peninsula moving smoothly. 880 still recovering after the earlier crash south at 23rd. Still slow in both directions through downtown. Back to you. Thanks, mike. Another local news update in half an hour. See you then. From nbc news, this is today with Kathie Lee Gifford and hoda kotb, live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. Hey, everybody. Welcome to funday mday, february 23rd day after the oscars. Yes. Hope you had a great weekend. Weve got all of the highlights, the alist stars, what they were wearing. Some of the things you didnt see. I like when she does it. Sometimes she switches the celeb and the dress. Okay. What was going on with the gloves on the gaga dress. Look how precious kyra looked. Were going the talk about all of that. All of that is in the eyes of the beholder. Scott wolf is going to talk about a stream my love triangle hes in in the nbc seres night shift. Do you know what today is . You better know. Today is the big sirius xm for hodas show called the hoda show. Its going to be fun. If you want to call in and ask questions. Brooke shields is always going to be on with you. Shes always very candid. Lets talk off the red corporate. A lot of people were in their living rooms watching. Who did you like . I didnt see a lot of them. I had a lot of trouble getting back from florida last night. I have seen pictures and sometimes they dont capture. Zoe i thought looked gorgeous. And i thought kyra picked a beautiful dress. Shes pregnant, went feminine and lovely. I loved that peach. Were all so sick of black here in new york. I was ready to see something soft and peachy. I loved a couple of people too. I liked a bunch but i love Jennifer Lopez and i also liked rosalind hike. Look at this hour glass figures. Two totally different dresses. J. Lo it also looks like a nude dress. I love it when she wears nude. Her skin is so gorgeous. Rosalind pike they did something in the 9 oclock hour with natalie wore this dress. Anybody you didnt care for . I didnt like the gaga gloves. I know a lot of people liked the dress. It was kind of boxy and it will with one of those on the runway. I dont think so. Normal people cant wear dresses like that or wouldnt wear them. Shes an elegant woman and she pushes it a little, which i like. Neil Patrick Harris this is the beginning youre in front of the tv. Its 8 30. I thought he shot out like a cannon right in the very beginning. Lets take a look at the opening number. Moving pictures how they can move you and also improve you jack jack black is a funny man. Lets talk about Anna Kendrick for a second. Boy shes got one of those pristine gorgeous broadway cuts through the crust kind of voices. I lofds her in Pitch Perfect but you dont know how strong her voice. I havent seen into the woods yet but im looking forward to it. If youve seen the movie birdman you would have understood the Neil Patrick Harris joke. So he comes out of his dressing room and its one continuous shot like in the movie birdman, hes got his undies on and hes about to bust out on stage. Anyway he was chewing gum the whole time. Not just chewing gum. A wad and a half. I kept saying spit it out. And i love Michael Keaton. It was nerves. Just really digging into it and going for it. Some people youre either a fan of birdman or youre not. I didnt know what to expect. I was blown away by it. Having been on broadway a bunch of times myself and to see it capture that world. And the ensemble i wag the s. A. G. For acting. Although Eddie Redmayne stole it for best actor. There was some controversy thats really just bubbling up now. So lady gaga sang to pay tribute to the 50th an versecy of the sound of music. Lets take a listen first. The hills are alive with the sound of music with songs they have sung for a thousand years these are a few of my favorite things so look at this moment. Afterwards Julie Andrews gives her a big hug. Classiest woman on the planet. Hold on tight. You watch, like oh my gosh, this was perfect everyone loved it. And gaga didnt have on all of her gear. He was just elegant. You can tell gaga is not used to a frilly dress like that. She didnt know what to do. Shes a fine singer. But it was just like she was playing dressup. Then there was a tweet that came after it. I dont understand. Chon da rhimes is very famous for writing scandal. Yes. And remember meryl streep, when they were asking her if she wanted to be a chon dra wright production. This is a tweet, she tweeted, this was afghan gas performance. That was not okay. Adena is there, right there and oh dear god julie had to hear that, oscars 2015. I dont get it. I thought she did a lovely job. Its not the way were used to seeing her. You would expect a Kristen Chenoweth to be singing that. I say good for gaga you know, stepping out like she did with tony bennett. Great respect for a different genera of music my old fart kind of music. I didnt see jennifer hudsons. I was just about to bring it up. Which brings up the whole joan rivers thing. They were not in the inmemoriam bit. A lot of people were upset about it and i can understand why. Joan did several films. People forget she was innovative about making the red carpet such a big deal. Even if it was just for that reason. Lets look. We did make our oscar predictions. Yes we did. I know a couple of them i wasnt so right on. This is for you and thats you and you. Lets go. Bes actress. I said jewel Julianne Moore. Bes actor. I said eddie redd maine. So did i. Best picture. I said american sniper. And the winner was be birdman. Thats not so bad. I bet you a lot of people are going to start seeing the films too. Did you like bird mand . I was a little confused. I didnt understand how he was pointing at things and they were blowing up and how he was moving things with his fingers. So i thought maybe hes not real in the beginning. That would be whats that . Well anyway, i got confused and then i got lost and fell asleep and woke up and i was like whereby what happened . Feeling guilty. Favorite things. I love this young girl named leah still. Hes battling cancer. Shes got a book out called i am leah strong. You can preorder it on iam. Leahstrong. Com. The words are from her mouth, the illustrations are beautiful. Shes going through some rounds of chemo right now but shes a happy kid. 14. 95. Some of the proceeds will go to the pediatric cancer association. I was down in the keys over the weekend.

More now of the oscar after party. The hollywood celebrities have the stylist gowns at their fingertips but even they dont get it perfect. But they would if they had the help of our style editor. Bobbie thomas is going to show us which stars could have used a few tweaks. I want to start with in tweaks. Best in strapless showed up last night. I thought Rosalind Pike and Julianne Moore had a fresh take. If we can see them on the monitor. I like it was a more demure strapless. Not a lot of coverage. Even those rosalind was in toe, head to toe really. Stick down to the shoe it was perfect. And i thought julianne looked timeless. Sometimes you do predictions onned to today. Com. We posted a prepickwic and i was so happy to see her in something similar. She looked beautiful. And i was excited for Kerry Washington i had picked this gown and she wore even better. These were two that i was happy to see if that same vein. Now on to some tweaks. I know that everyone loves reese witherspoon. I loved her dress. I did too. When you have lines that kind of draw the eye down like how it scooped, i wasnted it to invert the u upwards so it gave her a little more height. I think i would have liked for it to have gone straight across. Thats one thing to look out for. The next tweak i made on a neckline was jessica chastain. This is a peekaboo technique. She was a gorgeous woman and we were not seeing her waist. So i raised the drop. Shes the same figure. I didnt change her size but its a bit for balanced and flattering on her. What about lupita. Shes luminous. It was a great concept to have a cool dress but i wish it looked more effortless like she was wearing pearls. The keyhole distracted. I liked the idea of a necklace. Is the whole thing pearls . It was pearls that were sewn in. This is faith hill and laura dern both of them gorgeous. I couldnt help but notice that laura derns hair was the star of the show. Viewers were tweeting can you do something with her hair . I liked her hair but i wanted to see her swap. I love her hair with the simple elegant dress that faith hill wore. If you go back and forth youll see again flip and flip. The weather wasnt so great in l. A. Wasnt it raining . Felicity jones, gorgeous girl. The only thing is she looks so young even though shes 30 or 31. Its a very disney dress. Instead of adjusting the dress, just switching the hair back, its a really you tonight have to be wearing a red carpet dress. Just consider opening yourself up raising your neckline i dont really like a heavy bang with nothing else. Its distracting. Its on trend with some stuff. I thought for the most part everybody looked quite lovely. Thank you, sweetie. It is not just the oscars that have tinsel town talking. We have all the other celebrities in todays buzz. We do. And the night shifts scott flo hey, big guy. I heard you lost a close one today. Look, jamie, maybe we werent the lowest rate this time.

A couple of weird thungs at the oscars. John travolta had a little bit of a he had a couple of awkward moments didnt he . Lets talk about the one that was on stage in front of everyone. Thats when he teamed up with adena menzel. He walked out on stage and she had a little fun with his name. And yeah, it was awkward to say the least. Yeah. I deserve that but you my darling, my beautiful wickedly talented adena menzel. You got it right. It was like she was clearly kind of pushing away from that situation. Absolutely. There was another one as well. Backstage with starlet johannsson. It happened before the oscars started and that was hen he was in the press line. Here he is invading her personal space too. Its almost like the creepy uncle thing. John and scarlet do know each other and they worked on a movie a long time ago. It wasnt a random tell the other person is uncomfortable. Is he overdoing it . I dont know. Maybe. Its like youve got to read the room. Like you know when someone is walking away from you. Absolutely. Having another bad day, poor john. Neil Patrick Harris will say hell come back next year to apologize for the awkwardness. J. Lo had a weekend. She went on a selfie weekend. Her kids turned seven and she tookd a selfie with her ex mark anthony and then she took one with her father who was in attendance and who i hear was a mind craft video game party. It looks like a younger picture of her. I thought that mous have been from years and years ago. She looks flawless. Theres barely any makeup on. You dont see pictures of her dad that often. But then the party continued. She did preoscar partying. Oubt with her manage and long time friend. Now did she go out after . Did she change the big dress . J. Love is good for a couple of wardrobe changes. But here she is in the plunging neckline. A lot of people are talking about her and the comparison with Robert Duvalls wife where they had a similar dress on. They did . Yes. I feel like theres some comparison. She looks lovely. I think they both look fantastic. There is a similarity there. A couple of razzies went out, cameron diaz and kirk cameron. People take those in stride, dont they . Kind of laugh it off, i would imagine. When you look at it, its really the worst award that you could possibly get. But kirk cameron won four out of the six. If you look at it that way hes a winner. He is such a sweet guy. Cameron has had a couple of bad movies in a row. Yeah. Is it for all of them in. Just two in particular, worth actress for the other women and the sex tape. What about annie . Annie wasnt up for the honor. You just hear things. Youre adorable. Thanks. Hoda is moonlighting. Shes cheating on me in the afternoon. No, im not.

My doctor said that it could travel to my lungs and become an even bigger problem. So he talked to me about xarelto®. Xarelto® is the first oral prescription blood thinner proven to treat and help prevent dvt and pe that doesnt require regular blood monitoring or changes to your diet. For a prior dvt i took warfarin, which required routine blood testing and dietary restrictions. Not this time. While i was taking xarelto®, i still had to stop racing, but i didnt have to deal with that blood monitoring routine. Dont stop taking xarelto®, rivaroxaban, unless your doctor tells you to. While taking xarelto®, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. Xarelto® may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. Xarelto® can cause serious bleeding, and in rare cases, may be fatal. Get help right away if you develop unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. If you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto®, watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle related signs or symptoms. Do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. Tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. Before starting xarelto® tell your doctor about any conditions such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. Xarelto® is proven to reduce the risk of dvt and pe, with no regular blood monitoring and no known dietary restrictions. Treatment with xarelto® was the right move for me. Ask your doctor about xarelto® today. This little piece of hersheys chocolate. Is called a pip its the way we all start and end a hersheys bar. Pip by delicious pip.
