. >> reporter: like audrey, who says she used to be fashion i con donna karan's personal assistant in new york city. >> style completely changes when you become a mom. that's just the way it is. because of our bodies, the money situation in our household -- so, a lot of the young girls, teenagers, college students, i wanted to bring it into the mom space. >> we're not super skinny models, we're not wearing it for our waist. you want to make sure you have a longer shirt on on top. >> reporter: audrey is a mother of four boys under the age of 8. she has millions of followers and turned her blog into a money maker for her family. >> hey, everybody. so, i just got back from tj max where i did a haul. these are real and raw slices of our lives. for me as a mom, my number one thing is comfort. my kids are in the background, my husband is shooting it, i'm on a web cam, it starts to shake and i just roll with it. >> reporter: back at forever 21. i probe for tips. so, what is the new black this season? >> coral. >> i was about to say orange. i was about to aoransay orange. >> reporter: before

guest: audrey.r: i was a nursing school and a lot of the immigrants that came here had degrees already. one was an intent -- a mechanical engineer and i was amazed that she went to nursing school. i mean, you can make a good buck, but you can do that as a mechanical engineer, too. my point is, we have 22 million americans that are part of jobs right now. i believe there should be a moratorium on immigration for a certain amount of time so we can at least assimilate with the people that are here and start a new social security card so that everybody who is supposed to be here is here. host: a moratorium on immigration, what does that mean for the report? guest: the caller made two important points. we have seen a virtual stop to immigration. worldwide, it has really slowed. we have seen some pretty radical changes. there is a kind of natural slowdown. we are seeing now because there is a loss of opportunities in this country. in some ways, the process is happening right now. it is also a good moment

good morning, audrey? >> reporter: good morning, tony. sulaiman brown was clearly a reluctant witness. he was combative, argumentative but he refused to back oval -- oval graces that he paid during the last election. >> he promised me the job and i did everything he said to do and he turned around and disrespected our own agreement and me personally and i had to say something. >> the money part of it is completely unclear to me. there are money orders connecting to robert brooks who works for the campaign but they don't come to the money he what talking about and circumstances that lend themselves to being paid off and he didn't declare any other monies nor does he account for them. so that part of the story has too many holes to have any certainty to it. >> reporter: councilwoman mary cheh was making those comments in our studio this morning. she came to share her take on this whole deal. she said her ultimate goal is to prevent this from happening in the future and she said there will be legislation put in place to keep that from happen

minutes before the interval the second came moments later just before the half time whistle so you know audrey is the most one. and the lockers that i went from bad to worse than the other main central on the hour the foul just outside the box but spot i could have another goal and two will is out finished. so a quick look at other tables the states got leading by two points and the game in turns sinnett rubin's in and out and look what you are lurking behind along with a vertical assist angy you have eight goals through a fantastic and have a lot of it spot up now take two points adrift of previous events of the last two minutes i reckon grozny sides first win since the sacking of coach into bullets and present are up tonight after winning one nil at school band. golf now in northern ireland's rory mcilroy has teed off as he aims to clinch his maiden major title as he takes an eight shot lead over y. e yang into the final round of the us open the tragedy year old shot a sixty eight on saturday to post the tournament best ever third round total of one hundred ninety nine and become the first m

and what that means is that people like danny kaye and audrey hepburn really started the--the work.35 years, and every year he'd go out to a different country with a film crew. now it takes hundreds of us around the world to do that work. and every country sends out representatives. and so roger moore and liv ullman and harry belafonte and many, many artists are unicef representatives. and so with my--the privilege of being a representative, i've traveled to vietnam and to bosnia, croatia, macedonia. it's--it's one challenge after another. does that--does that journey leave you with the sense that--that we can fix the world's problems? or is it just a succession of challenges that we--we can never seem to clear the slate? there's always something, something somewhere that judy collins needs to address. well, there's something somewhere always that all of us have to address, and i think that's probably at the root of our-- of our efforts. and there always will be, because that's what life is, is a series of evolving joys and evolving challenges. and to be a part of one's culture and

i wanted to bring it really into the mom space. >> reporter: audrey is the mother of four boys underid followers on line which turned her blog into a moneymaker. >> just got back from tj maxx. >> bloggers are real people. getting on youtube. real, raw slices of our lives. if you watch my videos my kids are in the background. my husband shooting it. on a web-cam, starts to shack. i roll with it. >> reporter: because she used to work with donna karan, audrey uses fashion expertise to people who have children. >> blog to moms, is a different ball game. an emotional thing too. for moms, our bodies change. we had babies our bodies don't look the same as when we were in our teens and 20s. what trends and styles are out there that can work. >> reporter: a simple outlet for busy moms who can trend watch right from home. >> a lot of moms get scared of trending styles. they don't want to spend a ton of money on themselves would rather put night their family and household. what i love to do is find trends and styles that are hot and find a way to work it into a mom's lifestyle. >> so, i think w

audrey barnes has mir on that showdown. good lord! >> you know.t was a hearing unlike any other that we've seen recently. fired d.c. worker sulaimon brown came to the council hearing with money orders which he said proved his allegations that he was paid to make verbal attacks against then mayor adrian fenty during the last election. brown says that he didn't have to to much to prove his case. he had the five money orders, copies of them and he says that there is dna evidence on envelopes that he claimed were stuffed with cash given to him by some of vincent gray's campaign workers. >> mr. brown on july 15th being had a 10-manhunt conversation with lorain green. do you remember that conversation. >> mr. catania, you are a witness. >> again, you are delusional. i think i would know if i were asked by anyone to participate or answer any questions in this. >> the fact that you may think something is the case, there is a good deal going -- >> testified under oath that you said it would be an issue at this confirmation hearing and he said that when he

host: audrey? guest: they said there are 4000 chemicals in cigarettes, but they cannot define which ones are causing the problems. there is a debate among researchers that you cannot possibly know which is which. there are so many you cannot even measure it. how do we even know this is what is causing cancer if they cannot figure out which ones to remove? i do agree that smoking is risky. i think a lot has to do with genetics and the synergistic effects. some people will debate the cannot even show how smoking causes a tumor. from let's take the call john from pennsylvania. caller: i am 63. i have been smoking for 50 years. i have two points to make. number one, just like the lady said, they try to divide the classes. they want people to feel good because they do not smoke. umber two, if they are so bad, just ban them. they will not ban them because they're robbing you every time you go to the store. host: would you go to a legal means to get them? caller: i am not sure if i would or not. a guarant

for audrey, it reveals food news. she's not allergic to shrimp. the conclusion?t they require an accurate diagnosis, so parents can be aware of those foods that present the greatest risk. for "today," nbc news, new york. >> dr. nancy snyderman is nbc's chief medical contributor. one in 12, why the rise? >> we're not sure. it may be a combination of things. one, we become germaphobes. and instead of going the old way of introducing foods one at a time, breast milk or formula, and then vegetables and then rice cereal and then fruits we throw a complex foods at children too early. it may be that their immune systems are hyper reactive so that when they get foods later in life, their immune system goes, wait, this looks like it's foreign to me. it overreacts and then children come down with these symptoms of food reaction. >> we shouldn't be probably introducing foods, we don't know that that's the cause, but we shouldn't be introducing complex foods until at least 1? >> follow your pediatrician's advice and introduce foods according to a routine schedule in infancy.

i also want to recognize the extraordinary performance of audrey. i like hearing her saying.i want to thank our mc, neil patrick harris. everyone knows he is openly terrific. a couple of other acknowledgements. the new york city council speaker, a great friend of mine who helped move the process forward to make sure the "don't ask, don't tell" gotkine done. --got done. the treasury is here. i think they like you. thank the cochairs of the old d.c. council -- the lgbt council. i see a lot of new faces and a lot of friends i have known for a long term. many of you knew me before i had gray hair. malia anas also stated looks -- say it makes me look distinguished. it's also says it makes me look old. i cannot help but think those -- think of election night. then it was the culmination of an extraordinary journey, men and women who believe the change is possible, who believe we did not have to except politics as usual, who believe we could once again be a country that lives of to our highest aspirations. it -- leave of to our highest aspirations. i said the journey was going to be

tv ads up, to get celebrities like cynthia nixon and others to come to albany and make the case, audrey mcdonald was here. all that combined made it a perfect opportunity for the senate to put the bill on the floor. and convince those four republicans that they should vote yes. i owe a great debt of gratitude personally. my family and i will be forever grateful to the four senators who joined 29 of those democrats who made history. >> do you expect other states will be able to follow new york's model? >> new york is a very large state and diverse state. people think of it just the pride parade in new york city but there are parts of new york more like ohio than new york city. it's a very large diverse state. it has led on a variety of social issues, whether it's women's voting or the abolition movement. all those things were started here in new york state. and in the end, new york city is an international city which people look to and come to all the time and so i am hopeful that this victory will be able to be mimicked and copied in other states and i'm certainly available to go anywhe
