lego friends aimed at girls.pent four years and millions of dollars analyzing boys and girls play habits. girls role play more than girls so they went and wanted figures which look more like them. they also like beauty and more detail. so legos designers responded with new products and more come but some activists are seeing only red. they have launched an online petition claiming lego friends promote stereotypes and want an end to gender-based market >> >>> well, a different kind of ring to last night's super bowl celebration. we will explain next. >>> okay, we have done all kinds of wedding proposals in the past, but this is a first, popping yet in the super bowl. one of the players did it new york giants linebacker, greg jones, the pictures to prove it, had a wedding ring hiding on the sidelines, so right after beating the patriots, jones, look at him, got down on one knee with the entire country watching, and proposed to h girlfriend. she burst into tears and said -- >> yes! >> yes. had theiants lost the game

were you a lego fan? >> no, but charlie just got excited when you said lego. >> i bet he did. >> you know what, temperature wise, it is going to be chilly into peer and minnesota today. we are definitely dealing with temperatures in the teens. we have that arctic air rolling down. this is going to start to come here as we go into the weekend. we won't see the teens, but our highs are going to be very cold in more of the upper 30s to around 40 as we head into tomorrow. for today, that weather pattern brings us with high pressure in control of our weather this morning. high pressure will scoot off to the east. once it does that it will allow temperatures to warm up a little bit. forecasting around 50 for today. the big factor is that this moves out, it will break down and allow for some moisture to get in here. it will start out as some rain and mix over to snow, just like we saw a couple of days agoful all in all -- days ago. all in all, we won't be seeing a lot of accumulation with this. we will get the s

here's a statement from lego.h the goal of inspiring more girls than we currently serve to try their hand at building and experience the pride of accomplishment that lego play fosters. i'll give you the final word. >> sure. well, lego used to market to girls and boys decades ago. and the marketing campaign now is focusing on just the being pretty and shopping and very, very, very narrow definition of girlhood. we believe that legos should be for everybody, for girls and boys. but if you look at the commercials for all of the regular lego lines, you don't see girls. you don't see girls playing with the astronaut sets and the alien conquest and all of the various legos. you see them playing with the very narrow definitions of what it means to be a girl which is baking and shopping. and we want girls to grow up to be anything in the world that they want to be. >> and i whole heartedly agree with that last part of the message and as a parent, we have the personal responsibility to choose the toys that our kids end up
