It's Tuesday and here are the 5 things to know for your New Day

1. MISSING PLANE

The wait is over: It's been a couple of months, but the families of passengers lost on Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 got their wish today. The airline released communications data between satellites and the missing Boeing 777 with 239 people on board. They hope the information will help them pinpoint the whereabouts MH370, although the airline and other experts have already crunched the numbers.

2. CALIFORNIA KILLING

Family tragedies: The University of California, Santa Barbara mourns the deaths of six of its students today. All of them were killed in a shooting and stabbing rampage by Elliot Rodger, who also died.

3. CIA OFFICIAL OUTED

Oops: It was an accident, but still it wasn't good. The White House accidentally revealed the name of the CIA's top spy in Afghanistan to some 6,000 journalists. The person was included on a list of people attending a military briefing for President Barack Obama during his surprise visit to Bagram Airfield in Afghanistan. Privately, administration officials are alarmed, but have declined to comment publicly.

4. NIGERIA SCHOOLGIRLS

Not worth the risk: A top Nigerian military official believes he knows the whereabouts of girls kidnapped last month, but he says the nation's military will not use force to try to rescue them. It's too dangerous, according to Air Chief Marshal Alex Badeh. "We can't kill our girls in the name of trying to get them back." More than 200 schoolgirls were kidnapped in northern Nigeria last month by Boko Haram, an Islamist militant group.

5. DIET DRINKS

Bubbling with information: A study paid for by the American Beverage Association says dieters who drink diet soda lose more than those who only drink water. Four pounds more on average over the 12 weeks of the study. The researcher theorizes that the people who drank diet soft drinks felt less cheated and were better able to stick to their diets.
