missile program never too far away even at the flower exhibition. a sign of north korea's might and power. >> the north korean government has not acknowledged the launch or the failure. one government official took me aside and admitted to me that these kinds of mistake might not happen. it might not be the government's fault that the uds staged a cyber attack against the launch. it's reported they have done so in the past but from everything that i hear from officials here, things are going to keep on going on, they're going to keep plugging away. >> the ongoing issues with north korea with were the hot topic of several of sunday morning's political talk shows. national security adviser says u.s. allies are agreeing something may

6:22 pm
. the fast and the furious fran chase was top at the box office this weekend. >> what may have come as no surprise, kevin mccarthy has seen all of his films out there. he is here with his review of the number one movie in america. >> hey, everybody. it's kevin mccarthy, i'm here with the movie releases including "the fate of the firus." i can't believe i'm standing here 16 years later reviewing the 8th fast and furious movie. i worked in a movie theater and saw it nine times at
6:23 pm
i saw it for free because i was working there but i love the fast and furious franchise. it's become a over the top, ridiculous absurd type of action film but with characters you actually care about. with the eighth film, all you need to know if you haven't seen the first seven, now we're in a time period where the team is essentially a robin hood--esque team and they do commit crime but for the greater good in their eyes. vin diesel goes rogue and his team has to get him back. chronologically speaking, if you've never seen the first seven, here's what you need to know. timeline-wise, the order is 1,
6:24 pm
2, 4, 4, 5, 6, 378. i love this film so much. it basically has exactly what you want in a fast and furious movie. the action there, the comedy is there. you care for the characters even though everything else in the film is absurd. the director also did "friday" and "law abiding citizen." the rock came into the franchise in fast 5 when he had that awesome bank vault scene and he's fantastic in the film. here's a scene that i want to show. i'm going to show this while i'm talking about it. it's a scene where the rock literally redirects a torpedo with his bare hands. that torpedo just came from underneath them and he hits it with his hand and he throws it into another truck.
6:25 pm
now, that's the ridiculous nature these films go into. so you have to know what you're going to see when you're watching the movies. but again the movie finds a way to keep you interested and liking the characters. that ice sequence literally brought tears to my eyes. i was geeking out so much. it was an amazing scene. let's take a look at a quick scene from the seventh film because this scene has the cars that were sky diving and to me i was like how are they ever going to top this moment and if you saw furious 7 you know that paul walker passed away not during the actual production of the movie but during the time period when the 7th movie was being filmed his two brothers stepped in to help finish production of the movie. he's not in the th one but his presence is felt in spirit. this scene right here is one of the most inkebl scenes i've ever seen in an action film. they actually threw cars out of the plane with go-pro footage. i didn't
6:26 pm
this, but when you see the ice sequence in 8, you're goingd to flip out. i love the fate of the furious, this is coming from the perspective of somebody who loves this franchise. i think it's a phenomenally fun franchise. it's great to have a bucket of popcorn, get an icee and i mix the blue and red together and put some coca-cola in there as well. i really love these films. i gave it a 4.4 out of 5. in my opinion number 5 and 7 are the best then number 1 then this one and then 8. i would probably go 6, 4, maybe 3 and 2. 2 is the worst one. so that's my review this week. tweet me and i love to hear what you think about the fast and furious franchise. i'm kevin mccarthy, fox news. >> we want to point out those were not lottery numbers kevin was giving out. >> i
6:27 pm
icee. >> with the little coke. >> moving on. the bells of national cathedral were heard across washington. >> the tra zition dates back for several deckates when (man vo) it was may, when dad forgot how to brush his teeth. (woman vo) in march, my husband didn't recognize our grandson. (woman 2 vo) that's when moderate alzheimer's made me a caregiver. (avo) if their alzheimer's is getting worse, ask about once-a-day namzaric. namzaric is approved for moderate to severe alzheimer's disease
6:28 pm
in patients who are taking donepezil. it may improve cognition and overall function, and may slow the worsening of symptoms for a while. namzaric does not change the underlying disease progression. don't take if allergic to memantine, donepezil, piperidine, or any of the ingredients in namzaric. tell the doctor about any conditions; including heart, lung, bladder, kidney or liver problems, seizures, stomach ulcers, or procedures with anesthesia. serious side effects may occur, including muscle problems if given anesthesia; slow heartbeat, fainting, more stomach acid which may lead to ulcers and bleeding; nausea, vomiting, difficulty urinating, seizures, and worsening of lung problems. most common side effects are headache, diarrhea, dizziness, loss of appetite, and bruising. (woman 2 vo) i don't know what tomorrow will bring but i'm doing what i can. (avo) ask about namzaric today.

6:32 pm
>> it may look like we're in a trance. it's not a trance at all. it's just a lot of concentration. >> you have focus. you have to be aware of your own particular sound. >> i can't be thinking about what i need to buy at the grocery store. >> if one person gets completely out of place, it pretty much has to stop. >> you're looking for precision. timing. >> think about striking hard. >> you have to be able to hear and see in a way that's resize. >> when you hear it ringing it should be a smooth and as evenly placed as possible. >> da da da da da da. >> you've got off near the end. >> it's kind of like if everyone is singing a different note in a
6:33 pm
the song doesn't sound terrible. >> because it's so interconnected. >> i sometimes do hear bells in my sleep. particularly where i've been in an experience where we're ringing really well. it continues to echo in my head which was a little bit weird. i understand that. and it's kind of an inside baseball thing. people who know how to do this are able to go from tower to tower. >> they're welcomed like they're old friends. >> typically at the end of ringing you head for the pub. >> we're dealing with substantial pieces of equipment. >> thousands of pounds and swings
6:34 pm
>> if the rope is slack and catches you. >> it can break your arm or worse. >> and you're going to break something badly doing that. >> you want every single time for the ringing to be majestic and flawless. and sometimes it is, and when it is, it's very breathtaking. >> we don't like bad rings. we feel like it's offending people outside the tower. my husband claims it sounds it doesn't matter. >> the person sitting on the side line probably can't tell them apart. >> we like the hard stuff and we like to push ourselves, we find it interesting and i have to say we also like the camaraderie. these are people that i've rung with for many, many years. >> it's just fun
6:35 pm
bells. >> i will never think about it the same way when i hear church bells. >> it's grade because there's a story behind it. i think a lot of people think it just happens by itself. >> i had no idea. >> not so much. >> on the way we're going to take a look at some of the big events taking place across the area over the next week. >> from beer and art festivals to concerts we will preview it all when the news returns.

6:43 pm
already popping up on radar which i'll show you. can't rule out maybe a stray isolated rumble of thunder there. temperatures this week staying into the 70s in the week ahead and we have some showers and isolated storms this week but the good news it's not a total washout. we have a mixture of surn and clouds as we stay very much in the mild sector. take a look at these daytime highs. unbelievable. talk about with that 90 degree range e look at this. 89 at reagan national airport. the record is actually 92 some no broken records here but 86 at dulles and 87 at marshall. it was absolutely great. current temperatures this hour we're at 82 at dc, 82 at dulles, 81 at mannasas this hour. 77 at winchester and at cumberland. to the south 81 at fredricksburg, baltimore 82 and 86 at annapolis. temperatures will be into
6:44 pm
50s overnight, a little cooler to the north and northwest as we get a little bit of a change with a cold front that's moving through and that cold front is approaching and it is a trigger for seeing some of those showers that we have popping up here and there and the increasing clouds we're getting for tonight as well. so we could see some of those showers lingering not early morning of your monday. here's a look at future cast showing you, here we are into the early hours, 8:00, 9:00 into the morning. other wise not much happening. picks up into the south into the later part of monday, things start to increase and thunderstorms start to role through there and we start to get a clearing trend as a ridge of high pressure starts to build in. so we're going to be staying into the 70s pretty much for most of the week. jet stream staying well to the north. that's southerly flow keeps kicking in fairly comfortable just a little active weather wise with a few days of some showers. tomorrow we're talking 72 degrees under
6:45 pm
by the 4:00 hour 74 and wrapping it up 65 degrees for tonight, becoming mostly cloudy once again, still looking at an isolated shower here and there and for tomorrow a high of 76 degrees. here's a look at your fox 5 forecast. i mentioned a few days with some showers, otherwise not bad and the temperatures as i said in the 70s. so not a bad week ahead at all. >> no. you had a bit of a busy weekend too. a nice little story to share. >> i did. i would like to tell you about somebody very special. once a foster child and homeless, rob sheer has become a champion for other foster kids. they arrive on the dor steps of strangers. >> the great work he does. >> founder of comfort case, thank you for coming in. >> thank you for having me.
6:46 pm
organization. what prompted you to start to do this? >> for me it touched home. i adopted eight -- i adopted four kids eight years ago with my husband and they arrived in our home care in trash bags. i entered the foster care system carrying a trash bag and i couldn't believe as a community we still allowed zblit amazing. this just fills a need, a lot of people don't realize that need is absolutely there. when somebody does go into foster care and they're showing up at somebody's doorstep. >> first of all, children do not pick to go to foster care. so when they arrive they're carrying trash bags and normally are nothing but torn and taterred clothes. we wanted to make sure on their first night they realized as a community we cared about them. so what we do is we make sure they get a brand new pair of pajamas with a tag on it. we make sure they also get their own toothbrush, their own bar of soap. but most important they also get a blanket. no
6:47 pm
but a blanket to wrap them around so they know as a community we love them. >> you brought in a couple of bags here. >> i did. >> anywhere from an infant all the way to a teenager. >> it's infant all the way to 20 years of ajs. and so right now we are in desperate need of teenagers and older kids. so we're in desperate need of sleep pants. we definitely need duffel bags. people don't realize when a child comes into care to be given a trash bag they deserve a little dignity. >> we want to make sure the tags are on these things. the older kids get a journal. >> they get a coloring book, a kraian set. they get some type of activity and we always make sure they get a stuffed animal. i believe every child deserves a stuffed animal. when our four kids arrived in our home, they didn't even have a blanket. i think it's ior
6:48 pm
>> recently you had what we call a packing party. tell me about that. >> what we did is we brought the community together to pack cases. normally about a month before our packing party we'll do a drive and people will gather and bring pajamas and journals and books. we want to make sure there's a book in every single case. the color of your skin and my skin doesn't separate us, it's our level of education. we put a book in there, a blen ket and a pair of pajamas and we come together as a community and pack these cases. >> it's fantastic. and you have these bags with toiletries in them. that's important. >> it's very important. see, i say it all the time. when you go to hotel, you're not going to use the soap from the people before you. so every child deserves to have their own brand new bar of soap on their first night in
