symptoms include tiredness, appetite loss, stomach pain, and bleeding or bruising. blood clots that can lead to death have occurred. tell your doctor if you have pain or swelling in your arms or legs, shortness of breath, chest pain, rapid breathing or heart rate, or if you are pregnant or nursing. my relentless reason: it's them. my choice with my doctor: it's verzenio. ask your doctor if everyday verzenio is right for your first treatment. it is 5:13. if you're just joining us here are 7 things to know. castro valley police are searching for the hit-and-run driver that killed a 12-year-old girl. officers say this black ford f-150 hit the girl in the sidewalk last night and sped off. students at mcclymonds are heading back to class but not at

is. first of all, i can't even -- this vibe is too much. it's too much. >> in san francisco the vibe was electric. not just when the 14,000 plus people were up on their feet dancing together but even in the quiet moments of reflection. >> this is what i was feeling for myself, kumasi, i was feeling we are so disjointed, disunited, disconnected in every area of our lives, in our culture. we come together under one roof with one goal and that is to be well. and to live in the space of wellness. that's the joy for me to being able to connect people that way. >> it seems like a lot -- a big undertaking for the eight hours that we're in, but people are really transforming. >> oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. i wouldn't do it otherwise. i would stay at home under my

you choose to have in your life. not that it's male or female but what are the qualities you wish to be surrounded by, to empower your own source of being because that's what we're all here to do is take the gifts we have earned and yearn to share with other people. that's the goal. >> every time. every time. she just couldn't say it normally after that. i wasn't mad at all. at all. >> what? >> are you adopting one of her ways of saying it? >> i might. you all would get tired of me. >> i wouldn't. that was great. >> it's a gift. as i was watching i realized she is so connected to whoever she is talking to. how many people do you meet and they don't remember your name five seconds later or you have to reintroduce yourself so many

times. she was so honed in. so much going around her. >> you were the only person there. >> that is such a gift to have and to give to people, too. i'm super excited. >> that's a great lesson. >> i love it. >> we were out there, why are you in the middle of the woods with oprah, out with a group called outdoor afro and she is all about connecting with nature and wanted to spot the work work connect everybody with nature. i will share more about them in a story tomorrow and what oprah had to say. it was a good evening. >> no matter where you're from, your upbringing, your background, what country, whatever, she gets it, everybody is connected in sol way. and tries to improve that, i love that. i can't wait to see the next installment. >> a weeklong special. b.a.r.t. week/oprah week.
