word today u.s. factory orders fell. >> my advice to the president would be to go big, go bold. focus on what worked so well for you before. put out a specific, bold, economic package, and tell people what that would mean for the country if you're re-elected. >> reporter: some want the new stimulus plan. they say it's affordable with interest rates super low. >> start creating jobs and doing things. we all drive on these roads. they're crummy. we have a broadband infrastructure that is terrible. we have a lot of stuff we as a nation can do and now is a great time to do it and you should make that case. >> reporter: make the case? maybe. getting a stimulus through congress, republicans say, no way. >> we have half a million people, more unemployed today than when barack obama took office. so going back now and doing the same thing that didn't work the first time and spending even more money that we don't have, i just think it's insanity. >> reporter: slammed by foes, second guessed by friends. >> that guy, president obama,

account containing more than $135,000. they say the money was intended to pay for his defense. but zimmerman's lawyer claims his client was confused and did not deliberately lie to the court. a new bond hearing could be scheduled next week. zimmerman is charged with second-degree murder in the february shooting of an unarmed teenager, trayvon martin, in florida. the killer who took the life of a virginia tech student in 2009 is still on the run but a revised sketch of the suspect could help catch him. the fbi has released the image of the man wanted in the murder of morgan harrington. julie carey here now with the latest. >> reporter: well, a sketch was first created back in 2005 of a man who abducted and sexually assaulted a woman in fairfax city. dna later linked the same man to morgan harrington's death. now her family has renewed hope the enhanced sketch will lead to an arrest before there are any more victims. help save the next girl is what

morgan harrington's parents called the campaign to find their daughter's killer. now they hope the new composite sketch enhanced by fbi specialists will help someone make a connection and turn the suspect in. harrington's mother, jill, believes this more realistic sketch makes the suspect far more recognizable to those who know him or encounter him on a regular basis. >> it looks like to me the most frightening thing is that it doesn't look like the face of evil. it looks like a regular person walking a round. and that's why this composite is important is because there is someone who looks regular, walking around hiding in plain sight. >> reporter: morgan harrington was last seen leaving a metallica concert on the uva campus in october of 2009. her body was found three months later in a remote field outside charlottesville. her parents have been vigilant in their push to find her killer, even returning to the place where her body was found to draw attention to the unsolved case. in september of 2005 the same man grabbed a woman outside of fairfax city giant and dragged

her to a park where he assaulted her. now the virginia state police and fbi are preparing to launch a renewed campaign to find the suspect. billboards will go up bearing the composite sketch soon. the same technique produced a tip that led to the arrest of the east coast rapistn march of 2011. jill harrington says the decision to publicize the case renews her hopes. >> we want to find this man through investigation and the use of tools and law enforcement. >> the more places we can get this image out, the happier i am. because it will lead to an arrest and i am determined that we find this serial offender. >> the fib declined to speak publicly today but say they'll have more details soon. >> thanks, julie. investigators in the district are trying to figure out what sparked a fire on a double decker sight seeing bus. it happened this afternoon along i-295 near the sousa bridge in

coming along i-64 charlottesville making their way south down toward richmond, i-95, and headed toward the northern neck. some showers now and some isolated snours the forecast for the late evening and even morning rush tomorrow. as far as the cool, it's like mid may right now. we are in the low to mid 70s. i'll tell you if there is any sign of us warming up coming up in a few. >> thanks. coming up tonight rescuers say they have not given up hope after a plane crashed on a busy neighborhood in nigeria. >> the husband of the queen has been taken to the hospital in the middle of the diamond jubilee celebration. >> our very own doug kammerer is in london tonight as the excitement builds for the once in a lifetime tribute to the queen. i served in the u.s. military with one of these. >> and a political candidate is getting a lot of attention for the way he shared his life's story.

involving tankers fighting the blaze. in the second case the pilots were able to make a belly landing at an air strip in nevada. they were not hurt. the transportation security administration is under scrutiny tonight after five employees were fired and more than three dozen others were suspended. those employees all worked at the southwest florida international airport in fort meyers. a tsa investigation found security workers violated protocol by not performing random checks. it happened on the late shift during a two-month period last year. congressional leaders say the violations may involve high level airport personnel. queen elizabeth attending her diamond jubilee celebration tonight without her husband prince philip the duke of edinburgh who is in the hospital now and expected to remain for a few days. he spent several hours out in the elements yesterday during the flotilla ride honoring the queen. the officials at buckingham palace say he is being treated for a bladder infection.

people from around the country and around the world have been lining up to celebrate tonight with the queen. >> we wanted to take it in and see the atmosphere. such a great event that we wanted to be part of it. >> abby and her mother jen have made this a family affair making their way down from manchester. >> this is a once in a lifetime thing. it really is. i was here for the wedding. and to have this is really spectacular. >> elizabeth hume has loved the royals her entire life and was right here 60 years ago during the queen's coronation. >> it's history. i was quite young and persuaded my father. we lived in scotland then. that i must come and see td coronation because it might be once in a lifetime. he let me come down and i came out with two friends and we were underneath the first arch which was down there. it was absolutely brilliant.

>> reporter: brilliant will be the word of the night as the pageantry that is the royal family shines for all the world to see. reporting from london, doug kammerer news 4. kind of looks like we have nicer weather. >> yes. it's chilly over there. they're in coats and trying to stay wrapped up and warm. >> no complaints here. >> no. a lot of folks are liking the cool here but our cool of course in the 70s today. the air nice and dry. and i just took a look on the ipad here. second day hurricane season. happy to report no tropical cyclones. we don't need any more trouble right? >> no. >> not for a few more weeks at least. >> right. we got over an inch of rain with friday's storms so that means a lot of the water levels, rivers, streams, of course even the great falls running pretty rough. running a little high, too. so, you know, we have more rain coming this week but it's going to be nothing like what we had on friday. we're not going to see a tremendous amount of rain coming to us in a short period of time but we are going to see some

showers and some occasional thunderstorms this week. i do not think we'll have anything severe. that is a beautiful shot. but of course not the kind of water that you want to get in even for kayaking i think unless you are really experienced. let's talk about today. 62 is how we started the day. 75 our high. just a recap on the tornadoes. we had nine tornadoes reported in maryland. two of course in virginia. petersburg and down around hampton. but not all that rare because back in april 27th just last year we had 11 tornadoes in maryland. 19 total for maryland and virginia and the weather channel recently ranked maryland as third on the list. third or fourth. i believe third on the list for top tornadoes states. not all that rare the event that came through on friday. right now 73 for a temperature so we're starting to drop and the winds are starting to diminish a little bit. they were up around 20 plus miles per hour a couple hours ago. they're out of the north. that's the dry air.

take a look. storm 4 radar right now you can see the showers well off to the north and east of us. those are hitting areas of cecil county and coming through areas of southern new jersey. then we have showers down to the south. these are moving from charlottesville to richmond down toward williamsburg where they are a little heavier and this is the kind of scenario we're going to have all week long. mostly showers but occasionally you get some of the heavier showers coming through with maybe even a thunderstorm. the forecast here for the evening hours, for tomorrow morning, we'll have isolated showers around. we're at 56 and dropping in haagers tooun. 73 manassas. 73 la plata. 76 degrees currently in fredericksburg. forecast then for 9:00 and 11:00 p.m. we drop to the mid 60s, low to upper 50s starting out tomorrow morning. that's cool and you might need a jacket but you're going to probably lose it by the afternoon because we will be having some sunshine. not a lot of sunshine but some sunshine tomorrow afternoon. the reason we've got those

clouds, the reason that we're going to be locked into this weather pattern you saw the circulation there northwest to southeast that rotation, an area of low pressure that's locked right off the coast and while we are cool in the 70s here boston right now, 52 degrees. that is a little too chilly, like london chilly right now. 82 down in raleigh, north carolina. so here we go with your future weather. you can see some showers around the area for tomorrow morning. mainly down south and moving through. and then a better chance of showers for the afternoon tomorrow. and i think wednesday will be the one day this week not during the morning but during the afternoon that probably carries the best chance of seeing some showers maybe even an isolated thunderstorm coming through. so for your evening 63 to 69 degrees. for your overnight and tomorrow morning. 54 to 59 degrees. and then by tomorrow afternoon 69 to 72 degrees. it's going to look a lot like today and it's going to feel a lot like today including being a little breezy. we warm up on friday.

80 degrees. nice conditions. but if you want summer to come back, i think you might have to stick around for the seven day. >> we can wait a few more days. >> thanks. coming up tonight a new casino about to open at stores in maryland but it could create a real problem. >> who would want to hurt this face? that's what police are trying to figure out after henry had his head cut just a few weeks ago. i'm erika gonzalez and i'll have more on this storey and the safety precautions in place to help him and his friends stay safe. coming up in sports the wizards sticking with randy. the capitals suffer a loss in net. and tiger woods hits the milestone. the when and where and how he does it. all pretty cool coming up.

not that it is the farm's fault but how would you even predict that would happen? >> reporter: at the time of the incident henry was inside the barn and the door was open. while frying pan farm officials say barn doors can be closed they can't be locked because it's a fire hazard. police would not go into detail but say additional security measures have been implemented on the farm. many of the same detectives working this case are also trying to determine who slashed three horses exactly one month earlier at a nearby location. >> other than the proximity and location we don't have a lot of physical evidence we can talk about that would link them. however, logically it makes sense. >> reporter: fairfax county police say they've gotten some leads. they've gotten some tips. but they're really hoping this money will help them close the case. in herndon, erika gonzalez, news 4. >> the farm's operators say public safety is not in jeopardy. police in fairfax county are cracking down on pedestrians who

do not use a special crosswalk near the dunn loring metro station. construction along gallows road has taken away a sidewalk near the metro stop there. pedestrians are supposed to use a marked crosswalk to get around the construction zone. but many people are walking in the travel lanes instead. police say that's against the law. and it's unsafe. last week police issued several warnings. but beginning today violators will get a $250 ticket. two pedestrians have been hit by cars in the area recently. maryland's newest slots parlor is scheduled to open in just two days now. maryland live features more than 3,000 slot machines and electronic table games. it's located near the mall in hanover, maryland and is expected to draw big crowds. not everybody is happy about that. derrick ward reports. >> reporter: on one side it looks ready for business. on the other side it's still a work in progress. in a matter of days there is no

the area could get gamed out and revenue could level out or decrease for all. such questions will only be answered in the months and years to come. derrick ward, news 4. the grand opening for maryland live is scheduled for 10:00 this wednesday night. it's open seven days a week starting at 8:00 in the morning. it will stay open until 2:00 the next morning during the week. it stays open until 4:00 in the morning on fridays and saturdays. it's been in d.c. for more than a century but the corcoran gallery of art could be moving. according to the washington city paper three sources at the gallery say leadership changes and funding struggles may prompt the gallery's board to sell the building. right now it's located at 17th street in northwest. the city paper also reports alexandria's city council is looking to redevelop the water front and the addition of a new home for the corcoran gallery could be part of those plans. coming up tonight an accident split a cadillac in half. everybody survived.

so pack the umbrellas. might need it tomorrow. but not going to be any big rains at all coming our way, not for a while. these are just light showers coming through. same thing for tomorrow afternoon. tomorrow evening. again, wednesday during the morning we have less of a chance than we have during the afternoon. in fact, wednesday afternoon carries probably the best chance of seeing some showers than any other day coming up this week. as far as highs tomorrow 71 gaithersburg. 71 frederick. 77 degrees in fredericksburg. the week warming up. you feel like the warmth if you like the humidity we're not going to have the humidity on friday but we are going to be warming up. from the low 70s tomorrow, upper 70s by thursday. still with some rain. and then we dry out and take it up to 80 degrees. we'll take a look at your weekend, which shows some high heat, summer heat back in the area coming up in a couple minutes. >> thanks, veronica. dan is down at verizon center. i guess it's fair to say that randy whitfield earned this job. what do you think? >> i think, vance, you're right.

randy whitman did a really good job especially toward the end of the season. he replaced flip saunders as the interim head coach. you got that interim title removed a couple days ago. they had the prep conference today. the team actually only finished with a 20-46 record but they did make progress. they won their last six games in a row. 8 of the last 10. the players really supported randy whitman and wanted him to be back as the head coach. he said he was approaching it like he was going to be here the whole time over the last month and he was not surprised by the decision. >> these players know who i am. and i'm a straight forward and honest as anybody. and i think that is the only way to be. i was raised that way from my mom and dad and i played for a guy in bobby knight that, you know, you knew exactly where you stood and i appreciated that as a player that you knew exactly what you had to do if you weren't playing and to keep playing. and i just tried to do that to these guys.

i'm up front, honest with them. and i think that's what they were looking for. the players enjoy playing for randy. they believe in him. he believed in them. after he took over you could see that the players improved. players played hard. they play with confidence. and so randy had a lot to do with that. >> a lot of work on that man's play. they have to decide what to do with lewis, balche, sure to be some changes on the roster before next season rolls around. meanwhile major league baseball draft tonight, nationals don't have the number one pick again. thank goodness they have the 16th overall selection. as a team right now, the nationals really trying to get back on track. they're still tied for the national league east lead with miami. kind of weird to say the miami marlins not the florida marlins anymore. but the mets coming to town just half a game back and the nationals have lost four of their last five games.

perhaps nobody struggling more than ryan zimmerman. really out of sync lately. 0 for 4 yesterday. and just 2 for his last 20. since returning on may 8th after missing 13 games with a sore shoulder he just hasn't been himself. he's hitting just spoi 240. though he insists his shoulder isn't plaguing him after sunday's game he was not mincing words when discussing his play. >> i just stink right now. so it is frustrating. but the beautiful thing about baseball, four months left to turn it around. it's definitely not what i wanted to do to start the season but can't do anything now. just got to keep working hard and continue to grind it out. it'll change. >> i talk to him and i feel like he's close. you know, he feels like he's just inching closer to feeling

comfortable out there. and he's a big guy in the lineup. we need him comfortable. i'm sure, you know, he's a good hitter. >> talking golf now tiger woods has been asked for the last two years if he is finally back to his old self. finally the answer may be yes. tiger wins the memorial. that's jack's tournament. in dramatic fashion. and the timing couldn't be better with the u.s. open just 11 days away tiger now installed as a 3-1 favorite to win the open. it's ban long time since he's won a major. tiger came into the final round four strokes off the lead. we pick it up on the 16th hole. what a shot this was. his second shot a big old flop from an impossible line. gets it to land softly on what he calls fake greens and it rolls in there for the birdie. one of the best shots of his career. and that is a vintage tiger pump. to 18. jack looking on. tiger in sole possession of the lead now.

a nine-foot birdie putt is what tiger needs to seal the deal. and he does just that. birdieing three of the final four holes including 18. he shoots a five under 67. finishes the tournament at nine under. he wins at the memorial for the fifth time and more importantly ties jack nicklaus on the all-time tournament wins list for second place at 73. >> a few back but a few to go and to bury three of the last four which was a nice finish and to pull off that shot at 16. that was kind of sweet, too. but to do -- be able to tie jack and, you know, 73 wins and to do it at such a young age, it feels really special. >> so he's at 73 wins. for people who know, he's chasing jack nicklaus's record of 18 major championships and is currently four behind at 14. but he gets to the 73rd pga tour

win exactly ten years younger than jack nicklaus did. jack's last win was at the masters at 46 years old. all right. talking hockey now capitals goalie tomas vokoun said at the end of the season he did not expect to be back and today tomas vokoun is officially gone traded to the pittsburgh penguins for a seventh-round draft choice. vokoun only in washington for one year. the 35-year-old, 25-17-2 in 48 games for the capitals. he was set to become an unrestricted free agent in july. the caps got something for nothing. the pens signed him to a two-year contract to be their backup goalie where ironically he replaces frank johnson who was the capitals' backup goalie before he went up there. a couple notes now. nba playoffs continue tonight. thunder and spurs game five. that series is tied at two games apiece. also stanley cup finals continue tonight between the devils and kings on nbc sportsnet. a couple nfl notes. an arbitrator has ruled on roger

goodall's side saying that, yes, he does or is able to suspend the new orleans saints players for their role in the bounty scandal and, vance, i hope you're listening to this because we could be seeing replacement referees in the nfl next season. so it made me think of all the things you're good at perhaps something you've never done. you've been everywhere, right? you're in shape. you traveled the world. why not be a replacement referee? i mean, it fits you. you look perfect in that uniform. >> you know what? if i could look like that guy, who's the dude that's so buff? you know? >> totally -- he's huge. >> right. if i could look like him, he's got guns kind of like that. >> yeah. >> then, yeah. i'd be proud and happy about that. but, you know, those guys do an awful lot of running, man. i don't think i could handle it anymore, dan. >> we could find an nfl referee

jersey that is a medium so it would be nice and snug around your guns to make you look bigger. >> medium might do it. let's work on that. all right? >> i don't know if you should offer to do that to the nfl. i wouldn't want to wish that on them. >> no. well, i don't know. >> could be ugly. we might work on that. that is a good idea. thank you very much. let me think about that. okay? >> all right. cosming up the campaign trail takes an unexpected turn trail takes an unexpected turn thanks to a
