Of a young female chinese student. But the victims family is holding out hope. All that, plus Venus Williams gets emotional at wimbledon. The creator of the ice bucket challenge puts the rumors to rest. And falling flat. Passengers aboard a hot air balloon get an unexpected ending to their holiday joyride, today, july 4th, 2017. From nbc news, this is today, with matt lauer and savannah guthrie. Live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. Good morning. Welcome to today on this independence morning. Thanks for joining us. Craig and i are in for matt and savannah today. Were going to help you celebrate americas 241st birthday with some members of the band here. This is the United States air force ceremonial brass out on the plaza. Theyre going to be joining us throughout the course of the morning. Busy morning. We begin with the breaking news. North korea says it has testlaunched an Intercontinental Ballistic Missile. Our team is standing by with everything you need to know, beginning with keir simmons in london. Good morning. Sheinelle, good morning. U. S. Defense and military officials tell nbc news they are assessing the type of missile fired by north korea. But early analysis suggests it is an intermediaterange ballistic missile, not the longer range that north korea claims. It comes just days before leaders of the group of 20 nations will discuss steps to rein in north koreas weapons programs. Overnight, north korea announcing its conducted another missile test. Claiming it has tested an Intercontinental Ballistic Missile, icbm, which could have the range to reach the United States. Officials say the missile test was fired from the countrys Western Region and tracked for 37 minutes before landing in the sea of japan. The launch comes after a string of tests and rising tensions between north korea and the United States. President trump, calling out the north korean leader, condemning the missile test on twitter. North korea has launched another missile. Does this guy have anything better to do with his life . Hard to believe that south korea and japan will put up with this much longer. Perhaps china will put a heavy move on north korea and end this nonsense once and for all. H. R. Mcmaster calling a Nuclear Armed north korea the number one threat to the u. S. We have to prepare all options because the president has made clear to us that he will not accept a Nuclear Power in north korea and a threat that can target the United States and target the american population. Reporter it is unlikely but not unprecedented to change the assessment of the type of missile tested by north korea. Asking if it could be an Intercontinental Ballistic Missile as north korea claims, one official says its possible. Well talk about that. Keir, thank you. Lets bring in jeremy bash. Good morning to you. Good morning, guys. This is the 11th time that theyve conducted a missile test since donald trump cabecame president. This appears to be the longest of the tests so far. What can we make of the timing and north korea being a global threat . This only traveled 578 miles. But it launched high into the air. It flew about 40 minutes. If you extend out that range, it could hit alaska and maybe the outer reaches of hawaii. While the label Intercontinental Ballistic Missile is not as important as the range, what is showcases is this is a significant escalation. The regime of kim jongun is heavily isolated from the world. And despite threats and tough talk from the Trump Administration, at this point, nothing seems to be working. What can they do to reel this in . Its very difficult. And north korea seems undeterred by President Trumps rhetoric. They seem undeterred by chinas diplomacy. The options on the table for america are very limited. And one of the things i think the Trump Administration is weighing is preemptive military action. If they see another missile law firm launched on a launchpad or on the back of a vehicle, the Trump Administration will have to decide whether to strike that preemptive hi. But that could spark a wider war on the korean peninsula. You mentioned china. Reported reportedly President Trump called the president of china, xi. Have we overstated chinas willingness and or ability to rein in north korea . Its our only hope, craig. Thats the point in the region. We dont have many good options. And all of the options usually lead to put pressure on china and put pressure on their partner in the region, north korea. They control that border. We need to leverage that diplomacy. Its significant because last month donald trump said the diplomacy has not worked. In statements on friday with the south korean president , he said effectively diplomacy is over. I think thats what triggered the Missile Launches. People are concerned with the apparent advancement of technology, justice u. S. The timeline on all this. They have been testing missiles since the mid2000s. Theyve been Testing Nuclear weapons since 2006. Five nuclear tests. But they have not put a Nuclear Warhead on top of a missile. They do not have the ability to hit the United States with a nuclear weapon. But this Missile Launch shows they can potentially range alaska, hawaii and eventually the west coast of the United States. G20 leaders. Japan will be there, china, the United States. This will be the topic of conversation. From an International Perspecti perspective, what are the options for the International Community . I think the biggest option here is sanctioning. Sanctioning those entities to do business with north korea to cut off their lifeline. Short of that, were talking about preemptive military action, which nobody wants. Thank you. President trump back at the white house where he will be spending his first fourth of july as commander in chief. But hes looking ahead to the highlyanticipated facetoface meeting with russias president Vladimir Putin, in germany. Hallie jackson has more on that. Hallie, good morning.

They plan to bring up syria, ukraine and isis. Moscow is reportedly using patience with the u. S. , with the diplomatic compounds here, shut down as russias election interference. Both sides are working out timing, length and format of the sideline meeting of the two leaders. The president last month with megyn kelly. Did we have a relationship with him .

You want to stay where you are, tread water, wearing a life vest when youre tubing is mandatory. It will be easy to tread water like i am right now. Look around for other boats, make sure you wont get hit. Youre a tiny dot in the middle of the sea. They can barely see you. Give the okay sign to your boat.

There you two. Reporter now, were safe on the boat. You can have a great time on the water and be safe. Reporter a couple of other important things to remember. Always make sure there are at least two people on the boat. Someone to drive and a spotter to watch the tuber or the water skier. And experts say everyone should be wearing a life jacket.

This includes ride sharing apps, Delivery Services and home sharing sites. Washington post has a ranking of how much people are earning on average every month.

Rental cars are not cheap in the city. Well, there you go. Have you thought about doing something on the side . No. But i want to take advantage of what other people are doing.

And his skills are impressive. The slower version. Is that real . It is real. I have a hard time believing it myself. If you look closely, you can see that the keys light up. The chicken knows which one to peck and which one to hit the next one. And her owner says patriotic songs are her forte. She is hoping to try a country tune next. I think she needs a pad on her beak. Im sure someone is working on that. Dylan dreyer, thank you so much. Time for day two of our series, starting over today. This is where we feature people from all over the country, who have made a major change to turn their lives around. This morning, we hear from a woman who was living what she thought was her dream, life in paris. Until she found fulfillment as an oyster farmer. Jenna bush hager has the story. Reporter on the post of southern maine, Abigail Carol is known as the oyster lady. Owner and operator of an Award Winning oyster farm. This series is all about taking a reset. Talk to me about what that means in your life. It means, just changing your life. And embarking on a new advent e adventure. Reporter this is yours office. Abigails new adventure brought her here. Before she was a farmer, she was living in paris, engaged to a french count and working in finance. You were living in paris. And living what seems like an amazing life. How did you decide to change things up . I had a really easy life. I was trading stocks for myself on my computer. And i didnt have a lot of responsibilities to anybody but myself. And in a lot of ways, it was the dream life. But there was something missing. I felt very disconnected, and i was living in a virtual world. Reporter when her relationship ended, she came home to maine to help a friend with a Business Plan with an oyster farm. Writing a Business Plan was not farming oyster. The caveat was, i will write a Business Plan but i am not getting in the water. Reporter when her friend backed out of the project, she decided to take it on. Resetting her life and life plan. Youre an accidental oyster farmer. Entirely an accidental oyster farmer. I was not happy about it at first. But i followed my fathers advice, which was to cowboy up. And i dried my tears and i bought a pair of waders and got my hands dirty. When you look back to what you are look as a little kid, growing up here, spending time on the coast, can you imagine that this would be your future . No. Absolutely not. Never in a million years would i have tremt i would be an oyster farmer. And sometimes i think, i cant believe this is my life. Theres days when you are fighting yourself. But most days, even when the hardest days when im fighting myself to get out here, when i leave the water, i feel happiness and joy. Reporter the work is tough with harsh conditions and winter temperatures dropping below freezing. But after a few years, abigail began to make a profit, just as the winter of 2014 arrived with its poller vortex that killed most of her oysters, forcing her to restart everything from scratch. Did you think about giving up . Absolutely. This has been so insanely hard. I know that struggle has just made me a better human being in the end. Reporter facing the hard reality of rebuilding, she decided to rebrand and share her passion with others. Every year we bring people out here on the oyster tours. And frankly, had i not started the tours, i dont know if i would have the farm here. Reporter today, her oysters are thriving and winning awards. And she plans to harvest 800,000 this summer. What advice would you give somebody who is thinking about changing up their lives, taking a reset . The reset didnt make me who i am today. What made me who i am today is the seven years of engagement, of struggle, of rethinking, repositioning, reupping. And thats it. You just got to keep reupping. And thats when life happens. And thats when the magic happens. Reporter for nbc news, Jenna Bush Hager in scarborough, maine. Cheers. I love that. I think its interesting, too, to note that even though she had the reset, it doesnt mean that life becomes easy. Youre living by the water and its simple. She said its difficult. Its taking the extra step to try something new. I wonder how many people put themselves out this and try something new and it doesnt always work out. Just curious. How much is the risk reward there . I think people think about it and dont do it. I admire the courage. The woman yesterday, as well. Shes expanding her business, we should note. Shes doing skin care made with seawe seaweed, selling lobsters as part of her goal to give everyone everywhere a piece of the maine experience. Good stuff. And tomorrow, a man who went from the football field to the firestation, after spending seven seasons in the nfl, hes now a fire chief in massachusetts. Youll meet him.

July 4th, a good time to preview some of the releases coming to ao a screen big and sl for you. Imdb special correspondent, dave carver. Great to see you. Same to you, craig. We have a lot of stuff to get through. Lets start with the blockbusters here. Talking about sequels. These are the two movies that everyone knows about. Im happy to report theyre great. The first one is spiderman homecoming. People are saying another cids e spiderman reboot, really . So much is about the star, tom holland. Spiderman is younger, hes 15. And they inserted him into the larger marvel universe. Just like they kid with captain america, with captain america, tom holland as spiderman last year. You see Robert Downey jr. And chris evans in this movie. That opens this week. War for the planet of the apes people love this trilogy thats wrapping up later this month. And i love this movie. Its visually spectacular. Its emotional, surprisingly. And politically relevant. This is a film that critics are loving and audience will appreciate it, too. And the villain is played by woody harrelson. Whats the word on comedies this sum center. One i want to talk about is girls trip. This is a raunchy comedy with jada pinkett smith. Its four women that go to essencefest. The breakout is tiffany haddish. Shes from the carmichael show on nbc. She gives a performance thats a starmaking one, like Melissa Mccarthy on bridesmaids. Another female cast, fun mom dinner. This is Molly Shannon and toni collet collette. Four moms go out to dinner. But the dinner takes a turn. And adam levine is in it. Is he good . Hes great. He can act. Hes done it before. He done a great job. And paul rudd is in it, too. His wife, julie rudd, wrote the movie. Thats terrific. Thats out next year. And a crazy movie called logan lucky, directed by steven soderberg. A fun, southern comedy. Its Channing Tatum and adam driver who play brothers who decide to rob the charlotte motor speedway. But the interesting performance is daniel craig playing very much against type as a bleach blonde convict with a really convincing southern accent. What about action movies . Atomic blonde. This has a lot of people talking app this is charlize theirons new movie. Its wild and action fight sequences ive ever seen in my life. She puts all of the guys to shame this summer. And because it takes place in berlin 1989, it has some of the best music of any movie this summer. Any oscar contenders . Dunkirk the drama from Christopher Nolan who did interstellar. Im told that putts you in the middle of the war like no other war movie. And then, theres a terrific film called detroit from the writing and directing team of the hurt locker and zero dark thir thirty. This is probably the best movie ive seen all year. It tells of the 1967 detroit race riots and deplorable conduct by some white police officers. A very disturbing movie. Not an easy movie to watch. Oscar buzz. How about a flick for the whole family . There is one. Ft. The emoji movie. I know people groaned when they heard there was going to be an emoji movie. It looks fun and inventive. I hope it will be as fun as the lego movie a year ago. And you have Patrick Stewart as the voice of the poop emoji. From the big screen to the small screen. Theres stuff streaming later. On netflix, ozark. This is starring and directed by jason bateman. He plays a chicago dad and Financial Adviser who is actually also a money launderer for one of the top drug cartels when a deal goes awry, he is forced to move his family, including his wife, played by laura linney, to the ozarks in missouri. I love the show blood line on netflix and this reminded me. And kelsey grammer, as well. Kelsey grammer and matt bomer have a streaming show called tycoon. They play rival movie studio executives. Because it takes place in the 1930s, you deal with the depression and antisemitism, as well as the classic hollywood theme. Theres a lot to look at. Su thank you so much for breaking that down for us, sir. Up next, a classic cookout for the fourth. Pulled pork, smoked corn, baked beans. Were pretty excited. First this, is today on nbc. Were back with today food. Nothing says july 4th than a good oldfashioned barbecue. Smoking up some pulled pork. Nice and slow with smoked corn and baked beans. Matt moore is doing it. It smells like perfection. It smells pretty good. Thank you. I didnt realize, that pulled pork comes from the butt, right . Its a bit of a misnomer. Its coming from the shoulder of the hog. Its one of my favorite cuts. Its versatile, accordable and it can stretch to feed a crowd. And it tastes good, right . Okay. What are we making . Youll pick these up in any store. Youre going to find them 8 to 12 pounds. I want to rinse it off and pat it dry. One of the first steps we do, were going to score the fat. What does that do . It allows us to impart more of the marinade and the rub, which im going to put you to work on over here. Can i show people what they need . Youll find elements you find in most dry rubs. Salt, pepper, brown sugar. Unique spots with the nutmeg and a little of allspice. You want to put that in there . Drop it all in and mix it together. We came across this recipe at st. Louis at bogarts smoke house. They like to coat this with mustard. And well put the rub on. If you have time, to let it set up in the fridge for 24 hours. Okay . Ooh. Over here, we have a smoker. Im going to pick this up. Get you to open that smoker. This is the real deal. How long will this take, matt . This is one of my favorites. This is an acorn smoker. Were going to cook over indirect heat. This is the epitome of very low and slow. Its 200 degrees for 20 hours. 20 hours . Yes. Now, i know some folks might say you dont have time to do this. You can break this in half and cook it at 300 degrees, a little hotter. The method is that time and temperature equals results. Can you taste the time and temperatures . The low and slow. I taste the love. Taste the love. Thats a good sign. This is a good sign. Theyre not talking to each other, thats how you know theyre focused. Lets smoke some corn. A supersimple side. When youre entertaining, you should be entertaining. Were going to throw this right on the smoker. Very simple. I just pulled back the husks. You put it on the grill. Some people keep it inside of the husks. Pulled it back. Removed the silk. Making a compound butter with butter and thooyme. Its nice and lemony. Well put the husk back on. You put it back on . It allows the moisture to be trapped and more tender. Low and slow. You taste that . Dylan is on to the corn. Its all in my teeth. Weve been smoking all night. Its ready to pull off. Supertender. Craig wants me to say a big butt. Thats a beautiful butt. A beautiful butt. Beautiful butt.

For fourth of july, we want to look festive, but you dont want to feel like youre in a costume. Its about picking understated pieces that can transition well. First, we have nicki. And what i love about this outfit is this is probably in most womens closet already. A white dress for the summer and a denim jacket. Denim pulls the look together. Its the makeup. We have a bold red lip. You wouldnt think of makeup as part of the outfit. It works and its not a commitment piece. Its stunning. She walked in. And its the lip, youre right. With the white, its gorgeous. She has a red nail. The little makeup accessories play into the look. And pop the collar. And we have joanne. And heres another great option. Gingham is the print of the season. Its a great option for july 4th. This dress is from zahra. We kept it casual. Its great for a summer barbecue. I like that youre rocking it with sneakers. I wouldnt have thought to do that. It ees street edge. You have it at home or you can run to the drugstore. You can pick up loreal, all at your drugstore. If a bold red lip is too much for you, you can do blue eye makeup. Thats a trend were seeing. You can do blue mascara, blue eye shadow. And youre not going to look like the 80s . Pick one. I would do either mascara, eye shadow, eye liner, one of them. Not all three. Good advise. Moving sneakers, a trend for july fourth. I love these, the nikes, they have the red, white and blue in them. But theyre subtle enough, you can wear them for the rest of the summer. I love these. A little stars. A little nod to the fourth of july. And we cant forget about the guys. Socks are huge for guys. My husband and sons are obsessed from socks. Nair from stans. They have to have elements of red, blue, white in them. It pulls it together. Do your pants have to be skinny pants. How are you rocking that . Whats the vision . If you want to be safe, wear shorts. You can wear your socks and you dont have to worry about that. Dont have to do the skinny jeans. Next, bandannas. I love a great bandanna. Especially for july 4th. They were 1. 66. Supercheap. You can wear them as a choker, which is fun. I love the idea of putting it on a hat. The hats are from lack of color. Theyre so fun. Give some festive flare. And another great option, here we have bags. You can also tie your bandanna around your bag, which is supercute and fess fiftive. I love them for the peach. Theyre from lulus. And i love the lilt white backpack that has the tassels that are fourth of july inspired. You know what, though . If youre going somewhere it makes it fun and festive. Lots of jewelry.

But in addition to that, its got the river walk. The river walk is flanked with restaurants and bar and its a great night theme. The two places we recommend to stay there is downtown. But youve got either the drury in, which is a vallejo teue hot which is i amazing. Or you can stay at hotel emma, which used to have it used to be a brewery. It was open in prohibition time. Thats a cool story you can tell people. I have to visit. Thank you so much. Staying in a brewery. Thats like a bud and breakfast.
