we haven't been used to that with the cooler air we had in place. a little muggy and more clouds featured in today than we had yesterday. a mixed bag as far as the sky conditions go. high temperature of 84 degrees. that's what is happening with the weather. more and a look at the official weekend coming up shortly. right now julie wright and the traffic. >> i'm with steve, once your feet hit the ground, the clock -- it's on for the weekend. >> clock is ticking down. >> for us at 10:00 in the morning, that's when you text your friends and say what are you doing now. on the roads you will find lanes are open traveling the outer loop through colesville road. light volume at this point. no incidents to report off 95 and 295. quiet on 270. busy approaching 299 then it slows at 118. this is the live camera at

this is as the senate, almost entirely democrat voted to pass new regulations intended to crack down on the risky decisions that brought the financial system to the brink in 2008. politically it's a pin for the white house. >> the american people will never again be asked to foot the bill for congress's mistakes. congress plans to hand create a new consumer credit agency. derivatives will have new oversight. banks that begin to fail could be liquidated by the government. on that point many republicans see trouble ahead. >> this sets a dangerous precedent that will encourage large companies to take more unnecessary risks since they will ultimately pay any losses associated with that risk on to the taxpayers form in the form of a bailout. >> reporter: left untouched, the mortgage giant that caused so many problems in the first place, fannie mae and freddie

mac. combined with uncertainty overseas, investors could be in for a wild ride. >> we could be in for a slightly smaller version of the roller coaster that we went through in 2008. >> reporter: the house and senate have to come up with a final version to send to the white house. the heavy lifting here is now over. steve and allison. >> doug, thank you very much. far fakes county schools have their spending plan in place. >> the school board approved a budget that cuts jobs and most summer programs, too. there are new fees for students. sherri ly is live in fairfax with some of the budget details. good morning. >> good morning, allison. these are tough times in the fairfax -- and the fairfax county school board had to make tough decisions. they will begin to charge students for some things that used to be free. here is how it breaks down. next year's budget will be $35 million less than this year. according to the "washington

post," about 200 positions will be eliminated because of those cuts. students that play sports will have to pay a fee as will students that take advanced placement or other tests. the board meeting went well into the night before passing the budget. funding has been cut to some students at risk but some of the most controversial changes will add new fees for a variety of activities. students that want to take advanced placement tests will pay a $75 fee. anyone who participates in school sports will pay $100 per student per sport. some parents objected but some board members say there was no choice. >> i like to look at the big picture. we have not, after tonight's budget, it will be two years that we don't give employees raises. as much as i don't like fees, we need the community to help pay this. >> reporter: now, the school system says it's waving the

fees for students who can't afford, according to the post. students on free or reduced meal plan will not have to pay. all in all, the fees are expected to raise about $4 million. the school system will need that because enrollment next year is expected to increase by almost 2,000 students. sherri ly, fox 5 news. back to you. the controversial proposal meantime to tax sports drinks, tea and soda has gone flat. she says it will not be a part of the budget after a number of council members opposed the idea. the council may consider extending the 6% sales tax to the drinks, however. stories making headlines, police investigating a bizarre incident, a woman found dead in a southeast d.c. apartment. police arrived to find a man who either fell or was pushed

out of an upstairs window and was critically injured. it's not clear if the two cases are connected. they think the woman may have been killed but they haven't said anything about the suspect. they think her body was in the apartment for several days. disturbing details of the murder of rob wetter won -- robert wong. he was stabbed in the chest three times but there was barely any blood on him or the bed where he was found and there were no signs of struggle or forced entry. the autopsy revealed odd needle marks on his body. prosecutors maintained he was drugged but have no evidence to prove that. fairfax county police are hoping new sketches will help them catch the suspects of a murder at centreville mansion. these are sketches of the suspects. jose row sad day was killed

when the gunman threatened to kill someone in the home. it has been nearly a year since the deadly crash on the metro red line. the national safety board is getting ready to release the final results of the investigation. in june of 2009, nine people were killed including the train operator that hit the brake before the red line train crashed into another train stopped on the tracks. the ntsb will release its finding to the public in july. metro says one of its bus drivers took proper actions during a frightening at fake on the bus. romona richards was punched in the face by someone she said she did not know. the attack was unprovoked. the bus driver did not jump in to help. along with metro policy which requires that they notify the operation center and call police and an answer. the suspect that attacked richards is still on the loose. president obama is part of living history in washington but making his way into history

books another question altogether. that is coming up next. she has become the new face of immigration reform. the debate on this hot button. now we are hearing more from a little girl who had tough questions for the first lady michelle obama. six years ago the cdc said don't worry about the lead in the drinking water. now congress and health groups say they mislead you. santana moss is reportedly linked to a doctor with performance enhancing drugs. we will take a look at the possible fallout just ahead. 

helped lines this hour, new video of the underwater oil

leak shows a plume spewing out of the broken pipe even after engineers put a tube in it to siphon it to the surface. bp admits it's a lot more than original any thought. the oil is showing up in louisiana marshes near the mouth of the mississippi river. lawmakers forced bp to put a live video feed of the underwater leak on the internet. there is a link at myfoxdc.com. click on the web limpletion tab for that. jet blue says a copilot was removed for health reasons. there are reports that he sent an e-mail to his girlfriend that if they don't get back together, he would crash the plane he was flying. the fbi got involved and questioned the man in boston last night. he was sent to a hospital for psychiatric evaluation. she had a tough question for the first lady. now she wants to talk more with mrs. obama and maybe the

president. the little girl with her hand up said her mom told her that president obama was taking everybody away that didn't have papers. actually the girl in the green that said this. then she said her mother didn't have papers. she said she would like to visit the white house. the department of homeland security is not pursuing the family. the investigations are based on solid law enforcement work and they prioritize criminal aliens. textbook wars in texas coming to a close. a final vote coming today. yesterday the board decided to add president obama's name instead of mentioning the election of the first black american president. his middle name will not be included. by sheer force of the population, texas textbooks have a large influence on national publishers. now, one thing that i would add to that, if people now don't know who barack obama is, i think they should know.

this is history. this is the president. >> of course they should. but you know, we will see. we will be reporting on it. tony said yesterday nice, shorts on. >> more and more of the same today. kids can wear the shorts today. we have mild air in place this morning. it will be a warm one with temperatures eventually in the 80s. here is what is happening now. we have gone up. current temperature 60 degrees. relative humidity at 83%. it's humid. winds are out of the southwest at 3 miles per hour. here is temperatures across the country. you can see that most of the nation is mild this morning. yes, this cool air out to the west across the northern plains and into the pacific northwest but you would expect that. it's not as bad as it has been at other times. satellite and radar for nation, we are keeping an eye on low pressure out to the west. you can see it, the center of that system, i would say,

roughly near st. louis to the north of st. louis as it pushes to the east. that will drag a frontal system through here. that will probably in all likelihood trigger showers for parts of the viewing area tomorrow afternoon, more of the viewing area saturday night and sunday. forecast the next five days, high today about 84. sun and clouds tomorrow. clouds build in. high 75ment chance of showers during the afternoon and maybe some showers and thunderstorms in the evening and at nighttime. also a chance of that during the day on sunday. that's a look at what is happening with the weather. more is coming up in a little bit. >> thanks, tony. we have a traffic alert to pass along. chain bridge will be closed once again this weekend for more repair work. this is the deck of the bridge. work has started -- slated to start at 9:00 tonight. the bridge will be closed until 6:30 monday morning. chain bridge closed to all traffic, pedestrian and

cyclists included. major delays beltway at telegraph road. emergency respares to an overpass will narrow the highway to one lane. the beltway interloop is down to one lane. those restrictions start at 9:00 and last through 5:00 a.m. on monday. a couple of things to keep in mind for the weekend. as far as right now in traffic, let's find out with julie wright. >> real quick if we can pull that map back up, i want to help people out between oxen hill and alexandria. go north on 295 and come back south on 395. that is the easy work around to avoid the lane closure at telegraph. if your destination is alexandria and you are out of oxen hill, north on 295. follow the signs that say southbound 395. that will take you down to the beltway and you can avoid a lot of those delays. expect a lot of that heavy volume between noon and 6:00 when we get the people back out on the roads traveling from points a and b. use 295 and

395. what is happening now, let me tell you. southbound 270 not looking too bad out of rockville. lanes are open out to the split. no incidents on 270, nice and clear. outer loop of the beltway tied up between colesville and georgia. 16 and o street an accident reported there. good hope at 16th we had another incident reported. new york avenue traffic sloig at play dentsburg -- slowing at bladensburg road. that's a check of your fox 5 on- time traffic. >> julie, thank you. did the centers for disease control lie about the safety of d.c. drinking water? there are big questions about a report that came out six years ago. now a congressional investigation reveals the cdc new it didn't have enough information to be sure if the water was safe. karen gray houston with what

the report shows. >> reporter: it's a serious issue and the d.c. water and sewer authority insists lead levels in the water have been safe since emergency measures were instituted between 2004 and 2006. >> the question they are debating is whether or not elevated lead levels in water is translated to elevated lead levels in blood. there seems to be disagreement among professionals about what the answer is. >> reporter: the house, science and technology subcommittee healed a hearing on reforming public practices and released a report saying the agency relied on incomplete miss leading blood tests results at the time and down played potential health impact. >> it was historic violation of the public trust by government. >> reporter: d.c. councilman jim graham, who has been asking for an independent water analysis for years agreed. >> if you can't rely on the r district of columbia for this type of information, who can you rely on.

>> reporter: when the first reports of high lead levels surfaced in 2001, wasa began a program of replacing pipes that contained lead. residents were urged to use water filters. but a report concluded the number of children with elevated lead levels was falling, not rising. the house subcommittee report says the cdc knew then but did not mention that the number of kids with elevated lead levels was going up and that children found to be lead free were drinking bottled water. the cdc knew then there were missing blood test results from the d.c. health department. >> i know there is a problem at cdc but we are entitled to a clear message from our water agency. >> reporter: the cdc has not apologized or completely retracted their report but in testimony before the committee,

a krr dc physician -- cdc physician says they rhianna lized their research and are working to make improvements in the record keeping system. bottom line, what residents want to know, is the water safe to drink and did children and pregnant women suffer brain damage and other health problems from lead poisoning because the cdc didn't tell the truth? some health and parents groups are concerned. >> lead has permanent ill effects on the brain, the nervous system and other organs of the body. it affects people's intelligence, ability to learn. >> reporter: we contacted d.c. health department officials and were referred to a department of the environment. a spokesperson said they were not prepared to comment. in washington, karen gray houston, fox 5 news. it's being called one of the largest drug seizures of its kind in fairfax county, a drug you may not be aware of taken off the streets. that's next. forget four wheels. a lot of people are opting for two wheels instead. there you go. we have a live look at bike-to-

work day. 

there is help on the way for maryland homeowners facing foreclosure. governor martin o'malley has signed a law allowing homeowners to go through mediation. a major drug bust in fairfax county. police seized 21 pounds of cat in falls church saturday after spotting a man purchasing some from another man on the street. more than 100 additional pounds of the apparently feet means were later found at one of the suspect's homes. it is the largest procedure of cat, an evergreen shrub that is

typically chewed like tobacco. thousands of local commuters are expected to participate in the bike-to-work day today. there are a couple of pit stops in the area, one outside of alexandria city hall. they will be through through 8:30 with food, drinks and prizes for people that bike in. be careful and enjoy your ride into work this morning. up next on fox 5 morning news, why the head of the national intelligence is stepping down now. plus, redskins receiver santana moss accused of using human growth hormone. he's not the only star athlete linked to controversial doctor.

years. washington bracing for more change coming this fall as the fall outfrom primary races saw a familiar face lose. for more we are joined by chris wallace host of fox news sunday. good to see you. >> good to be with you, allison. >> the mini super tuesday proved to be use that. some surprises. you will talk about it sunday. >> we are indeed. a bunch of interesting guests. sarah palin who has allied herself with the tea party and supported very much the candidate that ended up winning against the establishment in kentucky. that's conservative and paul that ran against the establishment candidate trey grayson. we will talk to michael steele and timyka anyone. i'm sure one of the issues that

will come up, the day after he won the nomination, and paul questioned the 1964 civil rights legislation that banned discrimination in private establishments, restaurants, hotels, other kind of private businesses and that created a little bit of a problem for and paul right off the bat. >> these two gentlemen will talk about though regroup, how to go forward. any way to stop the bleeding in both parties. >> i think there will be more bleeding in the democratic party. the party that holds the white house loses seats. in addition all the polls seem to indicate that this will be a good year for republicans. it's a question of how many seats they pick up in the house and senate and whether they regain control. there was an interesting vote one actual election as opposed to primary, special election to

replace john murtha, long-time congressman in western pennsylvania that died. in this case, the democrat karat won in a swing district. perhaps that won't be as bad for the democrats. >> rand paul has been doing some media, stating his position more clearly. can we expect more of this. >> if you are running for a campaign, the last thing you want to do is debate the civil rights bill of 1964. my guess is he will get off that as quick as possible. he ran in the republican primary and they are taking conservative positions, even very conservative positions wasn't so much of a problem. traditionally democrats and republicans run to the center and there are a bunch of positions that rand paul will have to defend that not only will draw fire from liberals but conservatives. for instance, like his father, he is against our having been

involved in the iraq war. he will have a little explaining to do as they say. >> we look forward to your show. dynamic guests on sunday as usuabe watching. thank you so much. >> thank you, allison. >> you can watch fox news sunday at 9:00 after fox 5 morning news. good show sunday. >> it will be a good show sunday. fine viewing weather as we may be seeing some showers. it may be a good thing to do. take a look at the pollen count for today. tree pollen is at a moderate level. so, some of you will have problems out there. grasses and mold are low for today. we will keep you posted on that, obviously throughout the spring and summer. 60 is the currently temperature in washington. that's the temperature in annapolis and in baltimore. cooler in manassas, 50 there. we are seeing the warm air move into place already. up to the north, 63 in frederick. this is similar to what we saw yesterday morning as the temperatures jump up through the course of the morning

hours. satellite and radar picture, this morning you can see high, thin clouds out there. so, we are still seeing plenty of blue sky. here is the next weather system out to the west right now. gradually an area of low pressure. it will move across the great lakes but it will drag this front with it and gradually make its way through the mid- atlantic and northeast. let me show you the projected impact of that as you take a look at the surface map. warm air in place. we have had the southerly breezes giving us the temperatures, daytime highs in the 80s. we will see that again today. there is your low pressure system. the low doesn't move across here. that moves up to the north. it drags a frontal system through with it. not until saturday, late saturday night into sunday. that's when we get more clouds moving in and a chance of showers coming through as well. the forecast today looks like this. early morning sunshine, some afternoon clouds. warm temperatures, 84 for your high today. then for your five-day, tomorrow more clouds build in. a chance of showers coming through, starting in the

afternoon. they will come through west to east. out to the east you will see them sooner. many won't see shower activity until saturday evening or saturday night. monday and tuesday look to be dry. highs about where they should be in the upper 70s to near 80 on tuesday. that's what is happening with weather. now more on the morning rush hour traffic with julie wright. >> i still say like especially on the friday forecast, we need to put a little nutty buddy up there. tucker should do a graphic for me. >> nutty buddy has to pay for that. >> i pay for it every time i'm at the gym. all i do is squats, you know. >> all right. on the roads right now, we are looking at the commute on the south stretch of the outer loop we have delays university boulevard through silver spring. all of your lanes are open. southbound 95 and 295, believe it or not looking good. no incidents out of laurel down

to the capital beltway. southbound 270, the top side lanes are open. 395 a different story. heavy as you continue across the inbound 14th street bridge. no accidents, just volume delays up to seminary road. inbound stretch of the dulles spring hill road in the two right lanes. that's a check of fox 5 on-time traffic. more on one of today's big stories. mike shanahan responding saying he is not rushing to judgment when it comes to reports that santana moss is linked to a canadian doctor charged with smuggling and supplying human growth hormone. it has been reported that he is the unidentified washington player released in an affidavit after gala was charged tuesday. if these reports are likely

true, moss would likely be suspended by the nfl. >> i have been in this league for 25 years. i have had so many of these things happen, there is no substance to it. sometimes there is substance. we will wait and see what happens. if you do something wrong, you pay the price. we understand the rules of the nfl. if someone doesn't abide by the rules then paw the price. >> galea has worked with tigger woods when he dealt with a knee injury and alex rodriguez when he was dealing with a hip problem. there is no proof that he gave either hgh. doug eldridge joins us more on the fallout. obviously these are allegations against santana moss but is there enough here that he should be worried at least? >> well, as coach shanahan pointed out from the outset, we will let the investigation take its course. this is purely speculation and

third party information. >> talk about how this is detected. the nfl doesn't specific test for this substance, right? >> right. that's kind of a complicating factor in santana's case. the nfl pa and the nfl owner's association through the collective bargaining agreement agreed that urine testing would be appropriate. unfortunately for substances like hgh there is not a reliable urine test. there is blood testing. because blood testing was not approved and specified by the collective bargaining agreement, at this point there is no definitive and discernible means to detect it moang athletes. >> does that mean that santana moss has nothing to worry about or by association there could be some type of punishment handle out down the line. >> even though i said from the output it's important to pump the brakes and this is merely an accusation, that doesn't mean that santana doesn't have something to be wore lid about. nfl has the discretion to

discipline players without a positive drug test. we saw it when rodney harrison admitted to the commission that he used hgh. commissioner goodell came into office with the intention of cleaning up the nfl. he has been forthright in his discipline. in that regard, yes, he doesn't have to fail a test to be disciplined. the typical discipline is four games without play. that will come with or without a posttive drug test but there has to be a compelling amount of evidence indicating that he used performance enhancing drugs. >> you mentioned rodney harrison, that he admitted that. in the world of sports and other places, the admission doesn't come until after the evidence is overwhelming. we are putting it out there, if santana moss was involved in some type of activity, would it be better for you -- you are a sports agent. would it be better to come pleen clean now and say this is the deal or wait for the

investigating to play out. >> i think that's the intersection of the law. because this is on a federal schedule at this point and also the nfl drug policy and what i've referred to as the court of public opinion. that is the pr battle involved with this. if your client is guilty, two schools of thought. one let the behind the scenes federal investigations run their course then comment at an appropriate time or comment on the inability of prosecutors in your own governing body to come out up front and say this is what is did, this is the extent to when i did it. this is true, this is not true and in that regard you control the information. you are the hammer. you can kind of direct the coverage or at least the story. as we talked about previously, sometimes if you sit back and don't do anything, the story writes itself then you have to go back and incorrect facts or

speculation and inouye even do which is the hardest thing to address. >> we have heard from some members of the redskins. they said, look, we kind of frowm on this. if one of our teammates is doing this, they might be looked at differently in the locker room. when you look at football and a popular athlete in football, does this court of opinion hold up so much? would people be that shocked that this happens, turn their backs on someone because of an allegation of taking a human growth hormone? >> it's really split. the redskins is a great example of that. you have half the team that says it's unacceptable regardless whether it was deliberate or accident. then there are others that say we have lapses in judgment. we will stand by you. redskins nation is rabid.

they are hungry for winners, excitement with coach shanahan what i think emotions and positivity is high. if santana takes a proactive role and gets in front of this, i think he has the ability as does the team to mitigate the pr fallout that could come. >> this would not be up to the fans but commissioner goodell who is a hard liner. as we mentioned, all are allegations at this point. thank you. we have more coming up including one of the biggest beatle tribute bands about to hit the stage on the g.w. campus. "know the species, know the stain." lanolin-free coat, i know it's an alpaca. walks in here, looks says "hey look, it's a llama!" cleaning the stain like he would a llama stain. time he's wasting. ♪ call 1-800-steemer

there's a movement afoot in this country. a student-led revolution. a rallying cry for change in an otherwise unchanged educational system. people like me have something to say. people like me demand to be heard. people like me think it's time higher education was held to a higher standard. because it's time all people with talent were recognized.

it's time technology transformed the way universities teach. and tradition no longer stood in the way of getting an education. people like me want a choice. people like me want to make a difference. people like me demand a different kind of university. one that puts my talent first. one that learns how i learn. to challenge me... to support me... a mind... on campus... on my terms. it's time a university recognized people like me. people like me. people like me.

but two of the prep at thest that i have ever run into. >> we dressed up for you. >> stop. >> is it true you have been friends since second grade. >> yeah. >> did you talk about having a shrimp farm when you were younger. >> we had no idea about shrimp. >> how did it come to be. >> guy had the technology background in aqua culture and worked for -- during his masters on aqua systems. and came to myself and one of our other partners and presented this idea to essentially pioneer sustainable shrimp producing facilities in the united states, domestically producing a higher quality fresh product. >> i said, if you guys think it's a good idea from business standpoint and i think it is from a technology standpoint. >> they are good looking and smart. >> we want to learn about the

process. there aren't a lot of shrimp farmers out there. >> not indoor the way we do it. part of the beauty of our systems, we took all the negative and the limitations of global shrimp producing facilities and build this facility to alleviate most of those concerns where we can produce a healthy product. >> we are looking at this blue container. that's where it begins, right? >> we receive the baby shrimp from a hatchery in florida. when we get them, we get them air freight on u.s. air. we bring them to this tank, an acclamation tank where we get them used to the water, used to the salinity and everything else, get them happy and not shocked by the new water. >> we want happy shrimp. >> exactly. >> from there, they go where? >> from there they go into one of these tanks. this is a nursery tank. it's a little smaller volume than what we have in the larger

grow out tanks. they will grow to about 1 gram. >> one gram, not so big. >> that's when they go to the grow out tank. you can get a little more care, tlc, monitor the water quality very well and everything like that. >> let's head to one of the grow out tanks. >> after that 30 days, they are essentially hand transferred from these nursery tanks to the larger tank where they spend the rest of their adult life here. >> is what the life span of a shrimp. >> how big do you want them. it's almost a direct correlation with time and size. they will spend anywhere between four and five months in these tanks depending on how large you want them. we tend to focus on growing them larger than anywhere else -- >> because bigger is better. >> scoop some out. you said it's harder to scoop than one might think. i tried it earlier and i didn't catch one. the guys are fast.

cover the budget shortfall. a new $75 fee will be placed for advanced placement and ib tests. >> i think it's horrible. there is so many kids that it will take everything out that they won't be able to play. >> it's a difficult challenge. i don't have the right answer. but i do know that we have to look for some alternatives to help out the county. >> some board members unsuccessfully tried to eliminate those new fees. they are expected to raise about $4 million. according to the post, students on free and reduced meal plans will not have to pay. the silver lining in all of this, the cuts are not as dire as predicted earlier in the budget process. an infusion of money from the state allowed the school system to save some problems that were threatened. as for the fees, fairfax county is not the first one in this area to charge them. last year loudoun county began

charging similar fees including a huge increase in student parking. sherri ly, back to you. >> thank you very much. allison? police are investigating after two bizarre incidents at a southeast d.c. apartment. it happened at the cascade apartment complex on fourth street. police say they found a dead woman inside. she apparently was there several days. it's not clear how she died. paramedics called to the scene came across a man who fell or was pushed from an upstairs window and was critically hurt. neighbors say they are shocked. >> this is a shock to me because it's quiet around here. >> everybody gets along. i never have seen anything happening like this. >> reporter: police haven't said anything about a suspect in either of these cases. a former d.c. council intern will be laid to rest today. funeral services are being held for alonte sutton. he was shot and killed earlier

virginia at the bottom of the annual survey because it doesn't license or inspect kay dares -- day cares with five children or less. the people inside do not need a background check, a sex offender check, a child abuse check or any training whatsoever. >> when i say training, i don't mean college courses in advanced child development. i'm talking about has somebody talked to them and trained them in first aid, cpr. >> we work hard to make sure that children and facilities are safe. by and large they are. >> brent kennedy is with virginia's department of some shall services that overseas day care inspections. he said virginia has one of the best online databases in the nation where parents can quickly look up inspection reports. >> summers can go online and look at inspection history and compare facilities. >> reporter: naccrra agrees but warns parents to watch out if nothing shows up. >> they assume that means no

complaints. but, guess what, they don't have to be on there because they don't have to be licensed. this is where parents get fooled. >> reporter: the whitmers say they did not know smaller in home day cares did not have to be licensed. it was only after she went on trial did they learn she was not a u.s. citizen and never was licensed or inspected by the state. >> my instinct now is not what anybody wants to hear. my instinct is to not trust anyone. >> reporter: both maryland and d.c. tend to do better in the rankings because they require extensive training. but there are problems. to see state by state comparisons about what states do and do not require in day cares, go to myfoxdc.com. tisha thompson, fox 5 news. >> experts say parents should check state and local references for any day care they are considering. while virginia did not require her to be licensed

the right is a rhodes scholar, successful businessman and author of a book called the other wes moore. he joins us this morning. good to see you. congratulations on this book. it is fantastic. i have very little sleep because i was trying to get through everything. the story itself is intriguing. i want to ask you why you decided to write this. you could have written about a lot of other things in your young career but you decided to write about this, why? >> i knew there was a larger truth to be understood. initially was reluctant to do the project. but i thought about the tragic death of that police sergeant that day. i thought if i could do something to help people to make the tragedies never happen again, i wanted to do it. and something that wes told me when i wanted to turn it into something larger. he said i wasted every opportunity i had in life. if you can do something to help people and the neighborhoods the decisions are being made in, you should do it. >> what is interesting is how

you found out about the other wes more. baltimore isn't that big, nice size city but you didn't know this young man. how did you learn about him. >> the first time, i was in south africa on a study abroad program. my mother and i were on the phone. she said there are wanted posters all over your neighborhood a person in connection to the murder of a police officer and they are looking for wes moore. as i came back to the united states, i learned about how much more we have in common than the name. we came from single parent household, same age, trouble with academics and neighborhoods growing up. one day a few days after learning about wes, i decided to write him a note and reach out to him. >> what was that like? >> i was surreal. i had all these questions that i wanted to ask. i had no idea if woe write back. a month later after i decided

to write him th note, i received a letter back. >> the first meeting is interesting because the commonalty, especially with the sing many parent household, both fantastic mothers, supportive mothers, that's the common bond. how important do you think it is, wes, how this generation of -- especially black young men is growing up in the majority of single parent households. >> it's difficult to raise children with two parents in the home. if you take one of those parents away -- sometimes both parents and grandparents are raising them, it can be back breaking. you have a generation growing up in all backgrounds, growing up in fear, hurt and confusion. when you compound that with this hurt and confusion of wondering why it's just mom in the home or just dad in the home, i think it adds a really

compounds the level of complexity. >> we talked about your long list of accomplishments, rhodes scholar, john hopkins, white house fellow. you talk about what could have been a thin line between your fate and wes's fate. how thin do you think that line is? how important are the outside influences, not your grandparents, your mom, but the people you have to go to school with, see on your walk home. >> that line is thin. that was one of the really saitionz that i realized from this project, his story could have been mine. the tragedy, my story could have been his. had it not ben just for strong in home -- my mother, grandparents, aunts and uncles but role models, people stepping in when they didn't have to, a couple of steps in the right direction, that my life could have been very different. i think about wes. wes is not a dumb guy by any stretch. when you read his letters, you realize that. had he had a couple of those

intraven shons, i know his life could have been different. you realize how little it separates us from another life. it shows the importance of getting involved. >> when you read the book, i urge to you do so, you go back and forth. it's sometimes hard to say the wes moore that i had the pleasure of knowing versus the other, where does this start and stop. it goes back and forth. i want to ask you now, what does he think about the book. have you talked to him about his feelings of it? does he have regrets. >> he does. he has to reactions. he was amazed how much research went into it. i did over 200 hours of interviews with wes, his friends and family and mine and there is a resource guide in the back with over 200 organizations on the ground doing work. but the other reaction he had was reading about his life in a narrative, it amazed him how little he had done in his life. >> in the book you say the victim here is that officer that lost his life on that day

and i don't know if there is anything you want to say about that, i would be remiss if i didn't bring him up. >> thank you. this isn't an attempt at revision in history, questioning the case or sentencing, anything along those lines. the entire point is why wes's fate was sealed before that death of the sergeant and what can be done to avoid the tragedies and understand this is about more than just two boys. this is about all of us as a society and the decisions we make and the ramifications of those decisions. >> it's called the other wes moore, one name, two faces. i may help you understand what is going on with our young people and give you hope when you see it. >> thanks very much. students' deepest darkest secrets spilled in a school yearbook. one of the young editors is speaking out. if you are looking for work, check out the job shop. t so

face in your band is willy the david letterman band. you guys have been around for about 10 years. >> yeah, 10, 11 years. >> a lot of younger people don't realize, the beatles as a performing band, they stopped in 66. a lot of the material that they performed or created later, they never performed on stage. >> that is very true. from rubber soul revolver up. our band we have strings and horns. we can do penny lane, i am the wall with strings and horns. it's something to see and hear. >> what i want to point out is that there are a lot of beatle tribute bands out there, dress in the clothes, wore wigs. that is not what you do. >> we don't dress up. there is nothing wrong with that. that's cool. there is a market for that. but we have careers outside this band as musicians. we do it for the love of

playing beatles music. >> let's listen to it for a moment. can we take you will full for a moment. . ♪ still my guitar gently weeps. >> since you are not going for the look, you say there is nothing wrong with that, with you guys you are all self described beatle geeks, it's about the material and getting the sound down. >> you have to imagine as if this is back or beethoven. we are trying to replicate the music to the capacity as if you are listening to the album. we are not the beatles but we are trying to recreate a performance that they recorded. there are not many bands that you want to do that with but the beatles validated a band that you want to get behind.

everything from the guitars to the bases. >> for you guys, it's not just about rehearsing songs. there is a lot of research. >> a lot. it never ends. because the beatles keep finding ways to repackage themselves, there are new cds that come out that have better quality. books, new research on the recording. we worked with some of the engineers. we got inside their heads about how they did specific things. >> you had an opportunity to record at their studio, abbey road. >> you go in there and play beatles music and the dna comes off the wall. it's magic. >> i play guitar and piano. jimmy from the conan show, rich

you guys can harvest daily. >> we can do it daily, 365 days a year. it's in doors, all controlled. it's warm in the summertime but come the dead of winter, it's a good 75 to 80 degrees in here. >> good place to be. >> we want to talk about the process. i know a lot of people when they see the water, they are like it seems murky and dark. >> it looks that way. that's the bioflock ined system. it's a filtration process. they don't mind it like that. you put the water in here, you see that almost everything drops out of the system. that stuff has algae growing on it as well as other good nutritious things that the shrimp likes to eat. the water otherwise is pretty clear. it may look murky but it is good. one of the problems with the way they do it in the third world, 90% of the industry is

third world produced. it's not about the shrimp boats in louisiana any more. they take their waste and pump it into the ocean. it has devastating environmental impact. we filter that stuff out of the system to maintain the water quality over time and we process it. we dry it into a nonpolluting form and recycle the water indefinitely. >> looks like these guys are more efficient feeders. you see them every hour, hand feeding. >> we do combination of hand feeding and some automatic feeding. it depends on the size of the animal. when they are smaller, the more frequently you can give them the feed the better off. >> scott, you were talking earlier and you said when you started this, there was a huge learning curve that you were in scuba gear in the water trying to analyze the shrimp to see

how they learn. what is the biggest thing you learned. >> shrimp farming this way is tough. it takes a lot of time. our process is so unique. we have been working to create this sustainable process that we could take and teach others or provide other industries the ability to diversify their product and their agricultural base. in here you see these guys working. it takes a lot of time and effort. it's not just you throw them in there and they grow. but at the end of the day it's a process that we can take and replicate. the issue with the shrimpers in the gulf, this is a great opportunity to create a supplemental source of product. >> domestic is the key.

>> myfoxdc.com we have a link to theirs. you will see always fresh never frozen. in the next hour we will show you the big shrimp and how you can get their shrimp, via a restaurant locally or cooked up in your own home. we will talk about that in the next half hour. >> that does it for this hour of fox 5 morning news. we have one more hour to go. tony joins allison to take us through 10:00. >> thank you, steve. here is a look at the stories we are working on. we are talking about the fairfax county school budget, the largest school system in the area facing financial problems. the budget was approved. it happened last night. there were cuts. we will explain including cuts that could have parents paying for public school services or activities. >> also we have video of a jetliner on the move. but it's not flying.

wow. this is how you get a jet down the street. interesting. we will tell you all about this. it's fascinating. we will explain the video and jet and why it's being handled that way. >> it's friday. that means it's time to ask allison a question about makeover help. i got to say, we won't be doing a bunch of makeovers because it's a lot. this one lady grabbed me. she said, help, people think i'm a grandma. i'm not that old. she is a recent transplant to the area. we will talk to her and see what the stylist who worked with her came up with. >> you have been working on this one for a while. >> i loved her story. looking forward to it. >> we will love tucker's story because the weather won't be bad today. >> good morning, guys, temperatures should be on the warm side this afternoon. humid. it's summary as well. highs will be back in the middle 80s by later this afternoon. right now
