Jeff . Thank you. The cbs overnight news will be right back. Growing up, a lot of people judged me because of the way i look. I thought all asians were good at math. You all look the same to me. No, where are you really from . 9 11 was your fault. How do you see out of such small eyes . Go back to your country. I guess i wish that people knew. We are not all the same. We are not all the same. We are not all the same. President trump is expected to authorize the release tomorrow of a classified memo about the russia investigation written by the chairman of the house intelligence committee. Democrats and the fbi are objecting. Here is justin correspondent jeff pegues. How much did you like the memo. The impending release of the memo touched raw nerves. The white house batted down rumors Christopher Wray was going to quit in protest, releasing the information which is based on classified intelligence is unusual. It all goes back to president trumps 2016 campaign, when the fbi and the department of justice went to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court or fisa court to approve a warrant to monitor then Trump Campaign advisor carter page, who was suspected of having illegal contacts with russian operatives. The fourpage memo authorized by republican congressman nunes outlines alleged abuses, and deepened a severe partisan divide. Democrat adam schiff says it presents a distorted picture of how the fbi behaved and jeopardizes the russia investigation. They ought to be sending the message to the white house, that were he to fire mueller, rosenstein, that would be considered obstruction of justice, and bring down the administration. House Speaker Paul Ryan denies its politically motivated. This memo is not an indictment of the fbi, of the department of justice, what it is, is the congresss legitimate function of oversight to make sure that the fisa process is being used correctly. Whether the fbi director will go to the mat to present the memos release remains an open question. Former assistant director of the bureau. Im not sure that this is that die in the ditch moment nor chris wray. I think he would resign if this were something that he felt strongly about. Reporter tonight, former fbi director james comey weighed in, tweeting that American History weighed in. That is a reflection of how intense this controversy has now become. Jeff . Training athletes used to be simple, a stopwatch, whistle and clipboard. Now the nfl is bringing together pmen and machine. Carter evans checks out the new technology. Touchdown l. A. Rams we look at the athlete as a fine tuned sports engine. How much mileage have you put on that car. We have to make an oil change. And to do that, the rams rely on the same technology that tracks shipments and targets shoplifters. A microchip the size of a nickel is now embedded in every game ball. Coming for number 4. And the shoulder pads of these linemen. Why dont you suit up. Zebra technologies produces the tracking chips. Where is the sensor here . Sitting in the shoulder pads here. The result is data. Every movement is tracked and plotted. That was the nice one. On the number 14 there, if is gathering how fast im moving, how quickly. How far you went. When the pros suit up and the virtual becomes reality, its serious business. This is keeping track of every player on the field. Absolutely. Ralph told us the chips show how high quarterbacks throw, and how fast players are running. Whatever happened to just watching the players, and knowing this guy is worn out . We can say, yeah, hes fatigued. All right. Why is he fatigued . Within this data, this can tell me when he hits the fatigue state, when he recovers from it and how hard he is able to work so we can push him right to that level and make him a better conditioned athlete for the next training sessions. A great example of this season would be today guerley. Here is the trend line. The data showed the star running back got faster. This was actually the very play where he hit 21. 1 miles an hour on that specific play. It seems like you could geek out on those numbers here. Prove us right, prove us wrong or shock us, sometimes the data shocks you. The one thing the chips do not measure is the impact of a collision between players. The technology exists, and it could be put in a helmet. The nfl hasnt requested that data. The league has already faced a major Class Action Lawsuit over concussions. Jeff . Might be an important thing for the future. Carter, thank you very much. Now to some other stories we are following in the evening news feed. The tech giants keep growing.

I think he would resign if this were something that he really felt strongly about. Reporter tonight, former fbi director james comey weighed in tweeting American History shows in the long run, weasels and liars never hold the field so long as good people stand up. That is a reflection of how intense this controversy has now become. The influenza virus is continue to go spread from coast to coast, and its infecting team who have received the flu shot. Medical researchers in canada say they believe they know why. The vaccine, it turns out, is just 17 effective. Mark strassman goes behind the numbers. This emergency room in atlanta has been overwhelmed by the h3n2 virus. Starting this week staff have quarantined new flu patients in this separate hospital. Typically reserved for disasters like hurricanes. We had, you know, i would say about a 25 increase on certain days. The chief of emergency medicine. Physically need the space to put a patient in. This is going to help solve that. What has not been as helpful as hoped is this years flu vaccine. Canadian researchers reported today that its less than 20 effective against the flus most dominant strain. In georgia this flu epidemic has killed 37 people, 25 of them age 65 or older. In neighboring north carolina, this state has reported 95 flu deaths. In all, 49 states have reported widespread flu outbreaks and Health Officials say the flu seasons peak is two to three weeks away. It is a really terrible flu season. A frustrated nurse in pensacola reported this youtube flu warning that now has more than 3 million views. The flu is a pool of flu at the er right now. So please dont bring your teen in, please dont bring your healthy children, especially your newborn babies into the emergency room. Georgia Health Officials told us the state expects to break its record of 59 flu deaths and soon. So its been more than 36 years since Actress Natalie wood drowned. She disappeared from her familys yacht. Now her death was originally ruled an accident. But in 2011 the sheriff reopened the case. And now there is a new lead. Here is Erin Moriarity of 48 hours. In 1981, natalie wood was sailing with her husband, Robert Wagner, actor Christopher Walken and captain Dennis Davern when she mysteriously disappeared. I remember people coming on the boat saying she had drowned. It was quickly ruled an accidental drowning, but questions remained. Davern claimed the couple had a terrible fight before she disappeared. I believe that Robert Wagner was with her up until the moment she went into the water. 30 years later in 2011, the Los Angeles County Sheriffs Department reopened the case. This new information is substantial enough for us to want to take another look at the case. The medical examiner, after reviewing photos of bruises, and the autopsy report, changed the manner of woods death from accidental to undetermined. Why are all these bruises suspicious to you . Because she looked like the victim of an assault. Veteran homicide detective ralph hernandez, and lieutenant john corina say she have corroboration about the fight. Two new witnesses claiming they not only heard the fight, one says she saw it. Saw figures, a male and a female, whose voices they recognized as being Robert Wagner and natalie wood. Investigators still dont know how natalie wood got into the water. Do you believe natalie wood was murdered . I think its suspicious enough to make us think that something happened. I dont think she got in the water herself. I dont think she fell into the water. But Robert Wagner has long said it was an accident.

The magic of modern technology is transforming just about every aspect of our lives. Even bring your favorite performers from the great beyond and put them back on stage performing live or nearly live. Here is david pogue. Reporter many opera fans consider maria callas one of the greatest opera fans whoever live. When she died the fans were heartbroken. So they might be shocked to learn that maria callas is going on tour this spring, complete with a live 60piece orchestra. Her return is brought to you by hologram, or what is being called a hologram. We are presenting them to audiences to either see them again or audiences that have never seen them before. Brian becker is the ceo of base entertainment, which created the maria callas show. Most of us think of a hologram as a futuristic projection. Like princess leia, you could walk all the way around her, see her from the back. That is not what we are talking about. This is a 3d illusion, but Holographic Technology is a good name that people recognize. Shes hardly the first dead musician to take the stage again. The first example was at the coacella Music Festival when rapper tupac rose from the dead. The technology for that stunt is now owned by a Company Called hologram usa. No stranger to controversy. At his theater on hollywood boulevard, his Company Offers holographic shows, feet ring stars like billy holiday. As it turns out, these high tech shows arent really new. They are based on a stage effect called peppers ghosts, an illusion popular in 1862 by a scientist named john pepper. An off stage actor is reflected by a sheet of glass at a 45 degree angle, appearing to the audience as a ghostly lifesized image. Projectors are up there bouncing off a gray cinema screen. And the image is reflected off a 45 degree angle. Can just barely see this 45 degree diagonal clear sheet of plastic. Good kitty. A whole new meaning to the show cats. But how do they get the video of the dead performers in the first place . Especially marie callas. Marty tutor had to recreate her from scratch. So we start with a body double who has to perform, literally, and our director worked with our body double for 12 weeks. And then we take the results of that and go to work on it digitally. Just as in the movies, special effects artists super impose a Computer Generated face on to the footage of the body double. And what about the audio . They were recorded all at once in one pass. In this concert, the prerecorded callas will be accompanied by a live ochestra. They had to move the sound from the 1960 recordings. Okay. How . Its magic. No. Its software, but i mean its software and technology, and its artistry. Timeconsuming, expensive, tedious job. But worth it. Base entertainment is launching a roy orbison concert this spring. For those of us of a certain age, those artists are passing. The idea that we can relive and recapture some of our youth, i think that is what is really drawing people to it. Todd richmond the director of the mixed reality lab at the university of southern california. He spends a lot of time thinking about technology and art. Pretty soon you will be able to have performances for the songs you dont have footage for. And you can have them singing songs that they never sang before. Someday, not only could you have tupac singing opera, but maria callas singing hip hop. Absolutely. As though that is not enough, one of the most popular singers in japan today is a Computer Generated voice coming from a Computer Generated body. She opened for lady gaga on one of her tours. The singing is all Computer Generated based on these algorithms. Paying to see a pop star who doesnt exist. Absolutely. Concerts really these days exist not so much, i would argue, for the music, but more just the seeing. Singers are only the beginning. We did the worlds biggest election in india. Modie was running for prime minister. We had 150 mobile units traveling india and in 30 days mr. Modie was able to canvas the country four times in a month by live hologram on a dailey basis. He won by 60, 70 . We are talking about holograms changing the course of history. Hopes to open 150 theaters across the United States and brian becker says that ticket sails for the tours are going well. Maybe audiences will be convinced by the illusion, or maybe they will see right through it. But for the present, dead performers from the past are the future of live performance.

A few weeks ago, this baby entered the world in lafayette, louisiana. His parents, connie and benjamin named him kingston. They were undecided on a middle name, until right after he was born. That is when inspiration arrived in the form of a handwritten letter delivered by a stranger. A surveillance camera at lafayette General Medical Center captured the moment. Who was that woman with the letter . To my dads angel. Even though i will never know your name, you are the first child born here after my dads passing. When one life is taken, another is given, please keep my dad in your prayers. His name is james. Thank you. She is the stranger. Jamie, she wrote the letter shortly after her father died in the hospital. And she was inspired to write by the music that she heard playing in the hospitals pa system. Its a lullabye that plays throughout the hospital. Families press the button, playing the song, letting everybody know a newborn just arrived. On january 12th, 2018, he was born.

She had tears streaming down her face. It was beautiful. I came in and the dad said, oh, we found our middle name. And im like great, what is it . And he says, well, its james of course. And im like, oh, yes, of course. My nurse followed me to that thought and she was like, well, do you mind if we get your information and give it to ms. Jamie . We asked connie if she remembered who the nurse was. I think it was cindy. Sidney. Yeah, sidney. So that is my mom. Really . What a coincidence. That is awesome. It was my mother who gave us the tip.
