The U.S. is calling out Russia for a "dramatic rise" in cyber espionage against America. It's part of a veiled threat to the Kremlin: We know what you're doing online. Ever since the U.S. government hit Russia with economic sanctions last year, Russian hackers have started new cyberspying campaigns to steal information from U.S. government agencies and corporations, according to current and former American intelligence officials and cybersecurity experts. Now, American officials are fighting back—by outing the hackers and issuing what some see as veiled threats to Moscow.

    You don't have my vote . . . the high today is supposed to be 103 degrees fahrenheit with a "cool front" due to move in and drop the temperatures into the upper 90s. Winter's the only reasonable time to be outside in Texas. Unless you're into doing your running at 4AM when it's 80 degrees fahrenheit with 70% humidity.
