2008 and is based entirely on analysis of publicly available videos of putin dating back to when he became president of russia in 2000. and it states "putin's neurological development was significantly interrupted in infancy." it suggests that putin's mother suffered a stroke while he was still in her womb and that resulted in an insult to his brain, which has affected everything from the way he thinks to the way he moves. the right side of his body. and the result, according to this study is a russian leader with limited social skills who is driven by "an extreme attention to detail and excessive control." his primary compensation for this disord sir extreme control and this reflected in his decision style and how he governs. putin the hard-wired personal style is likely to change very

little. we need to point out, this is not based on brain scans or any other hard scientific data but this was produced by an office called the office of net assessment, a well-respected organization within the pentagon which reports directly to the secretary of defense. we do not know if either presidents bush or obama read this report before meeting with putin. gayle? >> david, very surprising stuff. thank you very much. this morning some of the nation's schools are dangerous lis vulnerable to the measles according to a "usa today" report saying one in seven public and private schools have measles vaccination rates below 90%. also showing opponents of vaccinations tend to live close to each other. there are now at least 145 cases in 14 different states. most of them are in california and trace back to disneyland. three feet of snow in boston didn't stop thousands of patriots fans. they lined city streets

she's staying put. >> she'd die, without question. she's not prepared to be released. >> reporter: rose says the 7,000-pound whale is better off in the environment she's called home for much of her life. >> she's got a trained staff that takes care of her day in and day out. now this group want tos take her and has an experiment with her. why are we focusing in on the wild population? >> reporter: the seaquarium fears lolita could end up like keiko, the trained whale that spent most of its life in captivity and starred in "free willeyie willy" but died after being released into the wild. both sides insist they only want what's best for lolita even if it means a lengthy legal battle. federal officials say they're nowhere near deciding what should happen to lolita next. they first want to conduct a scientific review to decide what's best for her and other orcas in the wild.
