welcome back 9:30 a.m., microsoft is pointing fingers

at google the new blog post comes days after the wall street journal reported google was doing largely the same thing on apples safari web browser joining thus morning to discuss the latest neil spring associate professor computer science university of maryland and affiliate of maryland cyber security center you handle you deal with these types of issue s with the cyber security center. >> all the time. >> first we had google bypassing security settings on apples safari web server now microsoft says they are doing something similar although it is different. >> a different technique when google was trying to figure out how to enable one of their features on safari they were using a pretty elaborate trick to get past their blocking third party cookies what google and facebook and others have done with microsoft's internet explore roar said we are not going to play your protocol we don't thing that is aproly crate any more and they include

a message -- appropriate any more and they include a message that says we don't really believe in this protocol when internet explorer sees that message rather than say i am not going to accept your cookies it just accepts them and googles third party cookies. >> really okay without getting super technical okay so they have found a way to circumvent. >> another way of circumventing what microsoft and apple intended, but it is not quite as elaborate and not quite as sneaky i suppose. >> why is google doing this. >> well, the feature that google is trying to implement is way of unifying their social network with ad network they run ads a long time, 96% of the money on ads and trying to get into the social stage if you like an ad you might share it with your friends if you opt into their service but when they tried to enable this feature they ended up breaking down the third party cooking

blocking for everybody everybody using safari, where that feature is on be default. >> it is there to prevent -- define what a third party cookie is. >> so a cookie is a little piece of information a web server sends to your browser and your browser sends it every time you make a request when it is good, cookies that you like, they remember you are logged in to your favorite website remembers who you are shows you pictures and your comments those are good but cookies also allow, ad providers when they put an ad on your page, that ad isn't coming from the same place it is coming from a third party provider in charge of figuring out which ads to show you those objects also use cookiethose companies can then watch every site you visit if you visit a site about cars or funny pictures about cats it may show you funny pictures of cars and normal people find

that a little creepy, that there is some company out there watching every move you make. although, because it is all about money what the companies are trying to do are find ads you are interested in. >> right otherwise it is wasted space. >> some people find it creepy but is this a big deal. >> depends on your perspective you may not really want it to be creepy and the setting is there to try to prevent it, to guard your users privacy and then google, finds a way to get around that, it is a little -- >> i am on the internet anything i can do to prevent all this. >> sure the first thing to remember this is an issue for safari because it turns on its block by default if you are not using safari you are not getting this protection in the first place unless you go through and look at the settings of your web browser and find a way to block third party cookies or accept cookies from only places you visit to do that then you get back to

where this level of safari is at to go further you might want to use the private browsing feature or incognito mode which tends to get rid of cookies more frequently, tries to make it more private if you want to go into an extreme you would install an ad on, extension, plug in that blocks advertising all together your web browser wouldn't ask for them your web browser wouldn't have a chance for seeing what you are doing at the same time any of these settings are a little likely to inconvenience you they might break some websites that depend on this, so third party cookies are used on my wife's payroll site i can't see documents from them, so, you have to be able to willing to tolerant a little bit of inconvenience if you want the most privacy you can. >> you have been trying to check your wife's payroll site? >> well,. >> okay. that is a whole other subject

atmosphere here in washington, touching the ground we will cloud up later today, up ahead, upper level disturbance, winds will have to pick up out of the south, in addition to afternoon cloud cover, no breezes out of the south, 20 to 25 miles per hour, if you want warmer temperatures get ready to enjoy the next several days here is your jet stream area of high pressure will get parked off to our south and east allow winds out of the south and the jet stream will buckle and allow unseasonably warm temperatures to get into the mid-atlantic, low 50s today, low 60s tomorrow and as we get into thursday and friday, how about 70s, a possibility, 60s maybe 70s for the day on thursday. all right, morning sun afternoon clouds, 52, your daytime high winds out of the south, 25 miles per hour clouds will stick around tonight not as cold overnight with the

front, maya angelou she says while death does have its sting, it need not be bitter and each of us can prepare for the end in better ways i think that sums it up what is inside that book but i want you to tell me what readers will find. >> thank you this book is about empowerment and dignity we are all going to confront end of life it is a tough subject but we are in a unique place we are the first generation in human history that have some say about how we die thanks to modern technology people are living longer things that killed people or they died from 50 years ago they are surviving one or to bouts of cancer and a heart attack we want people to live long and productive lives we don't want to end up in an intensive care unit, hooked to tubes and machinemonitors long past any hope of benefits and cut off from our familyloved ones so this is to try to get the best of both worlds best of technology and best of the human touch and connection that

takes place in difficult moments. >> it is so hard to talk about death of a loved one and god forbid, our own death but when we die, there are other people who must pick up the pieces if we don't do that correct? >> it is a difficult topic but it is an important one because we have tools available to us now the main one called an advanced directive, free legal form available in every state download them, turn them out, and you can direct to a significant degree what kind of care you want at that points in your life and who will make decisions if you can't not enough americans and minority population haves completed those well under 50% of the population part of my mission is have people take that action step so they can be empowered and make sure their values and wishes are expected at these difficult times and when that happens it is easier for everybody easier for the patient, the family doctors and nurses who take care of them.

>> the other aspect is pir which you will, psychological -- spiritual, psychological aspect too you talk about those things as well what is your advice for taking care of yourself, doing the gut check when you deal with loved ones too what things should we do to mentally and spiritually take care of ourselves. >> part of it is be able to be present for these things folks who have a terrible disease often say why they certainly wish they never got the disease helped them focus on the important things in life loved ones and family even starting to break down the taboo of the discussion, that we have in our culture about end of life enables people to get in touch with thing that is are important to them and that is valuable, the other pieces, just complete the paperwork. >> and you know you hate to even talk about cost related to this but preparation, will help take the sting out of those costs you incur as say a child a parent who dies without a

plan or as a parent leaving that burden to the child. >> there is a great deal of human suffering and family conflict is avoided and a tremendous amount of medical expense doing this does not mean you get less care you get care according to your own wishes could be a lot, some or very little depending on the circumstances but there is no doubt tremendous amount of money is spent on end of life care, i have seen it as a physician, it is wasteful, futile and often doesn't do good and some times it is hurtful to patients this is a way to deal with empowerment, dignity and respect to your own personal values straightforward people ought to do it that is the purpose of the better end >> i dare say this is for everyone. >> for everyone. >> regardless of what age if you are an adult it is time to look at this. >> three most famous cases in american legal history were three women under the age of

cemetery is known for today. providing a final and fitting farewell to the thousands who honorably served our country. but nestled in these immaculate green hills is also the story of a people, longing to be free and a government ready to offer asylum. >> here in section 27 arlington national cemetery, you will find remains of u.s. colored troops many of whom fought in the civil war, 3800 of these head stones mark the final resting place of freed and escaped slaves who found refuge in life, not far from this very spot. during the civil war thousands of enslaved people found their way to union camps, seeking protection from their confederate masters tens of thousands of these men, women and children known as contraband or refugees, flocked to the federal city, over time the government has nowhere to house them all. >> they had over crowding disease and decided to move the freed men into the pure fresh

air of the country. over in arlington. >> in 1863, on the site of what was then the custard lee plantation a planned community was established by the united states government, known as freedman's village here formerly enslaved would receive federal assistance opportunity for paid work and ability to learn a trade and go to school. >> the village did flourish there was a hospital, two schools, many permanent structures none of which are here today but it did flu roar. >> this is a scale model, -- flourish. >> this is a scale model, duplex homes, places of worship, meeting room, hospital, home for older and ill residents and pond all surrounded by green space. the settlement's first school started out with 150 students, later, there would be as many

as 900 students adults and children in attendance. the village would thrive for more than 30 years and at its most crowded time those of freed blacks called that village home but the settlement was never meant to be permanent housing soon it would be reclaimed by the government eventually used as the nations cemetery >> by 1890s, very very few people really left and the government was moving towards the establishing the village many live in the local area still some of the names prevalent in freedman's village are local residents. >> families like the sifaxes. >> this is my great grandmother, my grandfather. greg is able to trace his family's roots to his enslaved anises tores at arlington house after his -- ancestors at arlington house after his great

grandparents received their freedom they would live out their days in freedman's village >> i have a closeness to my family and understanding what is going on i have researched it quite a bit and understand what they were thinking, what they were going through and the children that they had they grew up to be successful people. >> the family's history is well documented but historians, like dr. williams with the black heritage museum in arlington are looking to preserve the history of freedman's village for generations to come he is currently working on long range plans to build a museum not far approximate the site of the old village. >> we don't want it to be forgotten if we don't document it in some way it will soon be forgotten. >> that is too big of a price to pay for the men, women and children who escaped bondage to once call this sacred ground

their home. >> the first real home that they knew. well, late in the 1880s that freedman's village closed when that happened many families stayed fairly close they would wind up developing communities that still thrive today areas like knox, halls hill, drew, arlington overview to name a few we spent a long time up there all day and we found out too, that an abolitionist and women's right activist left her mark on freedman's village as well >> i love learning new things i did not know that. >> thanks for bringing it to us. >> all right let's take a look now at the trivia question, actually we are answering it now this morning we asked charles chuck cooper was the first african american to be drafted into the nba what team did he play for? he played for the boston

celtics, okay. before you write me a letter okay i get it there were three trail blazers, earl lloyd, chuck cooper, and matt sweetwater clifton they all entered nba in 1950 but cooper was the first to be drafted by an nba team, clifton was the first to sign a contract and lloyd the first to play in a game a little tricky question but cooper was the first to be drafted. >> all three guys right around the same time. >> right. >> all right. >> they busted in. >> coming up celebrating mardi gras. >> we will bite into a king cake up next and our annie yu is live this morning learning mardi gras music, right now 9:51 a.m. we will be right -- is that a mardi gras hat? we will be right back [ husband ] i don't talk to them as much as cindy does. good morning, chickens!
