This morning the cia and the fbi are trying to hunt down the culprit who leaked its cyber secrets. Meanwhile the founder wikileaks says the cyber breach is for more devastating, he warns he has more to release. Wikileaks says its source for the documents is a former Government Contractor working for the cia. This is a historic act of devastating incompetence. If i was the individual involved id worry a great deal about the fact that ultimately, theyre going to be found out. Most of the people working in the cyber field for the cia are contractors. They dont have to have the rigorous security clearances as Government Employees do. It is considered the event for new ideas and innovators. The south by southwest Conference Begins today. It takes place in austin, texas. Runs all of next week too. This year the conference could be extra political with former Vice President joe biden speaking, but there will also be your typical robots, tools and scifi style tech. Mark zuckerberg and his wife are expecting baby girl number two. Zuckerberg made the announcement in true facebook fashion with a status post. The couples daughter max was born in 2015. So if youre searching for the one consider whats called the 37 rule. The idea is that once youre 37 into a life into a span of time of which youre searching now youre doing math and my go with me here. Thats the perfect age to finally settle down. For example 37 into the 18 to 40 age range is past your 26th birthday. People who use the rule tend to have a better idea of what they want and deserve. T married at 25. Right . 37 beyond that age, 37 of the way, right . No. What . Anchors doing math. This is why i studied journalism. Chuck, read that and do the math on that. Ill take a look.

Some of the words weve never heard of or could pronounce, but there will be 70 contestants who are really smart and can do spelling. Theres a unique challenge for two students who are trying to make it to the nationals. Reporter you dont get to be the reigning champ of the ir may i have the definition . Reporter unless you know most of the words of the dictionary. May i have the part of speech . Reporter thats almost as big as you are. I beat out a couple people. Reporter 61 to be exact. He made it to round three of the bee last year until that one darn word. Its stuck in my head. Reporter this year hes getting ready to fight for his title. Meet big sister allison. Im hoping to win hopefully and go to the national bee for the first time. Give her a harder one. Reporter having two competitors under one roof can spell trouble. Im going to give her one. Reporter at the end of the day, theres one thing they agree on. Then reporter word for word. If i dont make it id like for her to win. If i dont win id rather have him win. Reporter in fairfax, news4. Sounds like true sibling love and rivalry. The Fairfax County spelling bee is this weekend. The winners will compete against the best spellers in the country at the Scripps National spelling bee. That is memorial day weekend at national harbor. We talk about how smart they are but they do a lot of work. They put a lot of hours into it. And news for your health now, we all know about the whacky weather changes this time of year, but can it truly be blamed for when youre feeling under the weather . The short answer is no. Doctors say whats happening is that germs are spreading more indoors when the weather is less inviting to go outdoors. The Colder Weather causes people to go inside and be in closer proximity to each other. But as far asu sick, the weather doesnt affect it. Doctors also say youre less likely to get sick if you have a healthy lifestyle, exercise and get enough sleep. My grandmother told me to cover up im still going with that. Didnt your mom say if you went outside with your hair wet youll get sick too . Yes, and im going to believe it until they put me in a box. The whacky weather continues across the country we know. Some unbelievable hail to parts of missouri. Check it out. Oh, no wow. Crack in the windshield there. Youre looking at video of baseball sized hail destroying a Storm Chasers windshield. That will do it. There was at least a report of a tornado as well. The National Weather service is still working on verifying that. They love that stuff though. You still have to pay for the repairs. Its not cheap. Back in the day when i was in school chasing storms we lost three or four windshields over the course of a chase season. On the dating story, aaron, youve got a 37 chance of never meeting anybody so thats what that means so far. What you need to know about dating, its 50 emotional. 50 physical and 10 luck.
