From NBC News.

We explain exactly what wildfires are and how they begin. We’ll look at what fuels these fires and what you can do to stay safe. Then, sick and tired? We give you tips on the best ways to fight the cold and flu off. We’re in the nation’s capital for our picture of the week. Join us at the National Zoo to meet the giant pandas who are having a fun snow day. Plus, meet this baby pigmy hippo who is giving us all a reason to smile. Also, Toy Story – these stuffed animals are getting a second life, we explain how. And, game on! Our Kids Correspondent, Sam takes us behind the scenes with the Boston Celtics, the reigning NBA champions, for a special look inside their operation.
