belt. a green line station. >> if you remember nothing else about rush plus, the key to understanding it is that it's not just about the line color anymore, you also should look at the destination sign on the side of the train or on the platform displays to make sure you're going in the right direction. >> what do riders think of rush plus on day one? >> so far, no big deal. we'll see what happens. >> i have to tell you at the end of the day, if we get there on time and back home on time, that will be the best bet. >> in washington, kristin fisher, 9news now. riders on the red line are not affected by the new program. coming up, we'll have a look at the afternoon rush hour at 6:00. and rush plus was so popular this morning, it was trending on twitter. so, we decided to take a lock at your comments and put them into a presentation. our assistant news director fell in love with this thing, so expect to see a lot of it. we begin with a photo of the first train. 6:24, you can see it right

speaker boehner and senator jon lieber man gets $20 million to the voucher program. that's $20 million that the president earmarked for public charter schools alone. >> he proposed 50% of the $60 million and 40% go to the charter schools, which roughly is the same as the enroll. but with this agreement, we'll see less charter schools and public schools. >> one group clearly satisfied with the program, parents point out that 94% of the students attending school on vouchers graduate from a high school. that number, 89% go on to college. >> they would never, ever meet in a public school system. on top of that, they are also getting mature. they are getting mature in these schools. >> the demand is also apparent. since 2004, there have been 11,000 applications for the d.c. opportunity scholarship program. roughly 5,000 vouchers have been awarded.

president obama budgeted zero dollars for d.c. vouchers in the current budget. >> okay, how much money are we talking about? a maximum $8,000 for private parochial schools, a maximum of $12,000 for public and parochial high schools. >> that does not necessarily cover what it costs to go to those schools. >> it may cover it in the parochial schools, but georgetown, doesn't begin to cover that and the private schools, they have to do fundraisers. back to you in the studio. a georgia law school student accused of killing a 27- year-old woman from laurel, maryland, wants his bond reduced. steven mcdaniel is charged with the murder of lauren about a year ago. her body was found in a garbage bin next to their apartment building. wmaz tv in macon says his attorney will argue that the $850,000 bond is simply higher than his family can afford. an autopsy is being done for rodney king. one day after he was found dead

topping our health alert, scientists figured out the reason why too much sodium hurts the heart. the american heart association says eating high salt diets damages the heart vessels. it leads to high blood pressure and other dangers. more than 5500 people over six years and close to 900 new hypertension diagnoses were made. those consuming the most salt were more likely to develop that high blood pressure. >> this study allowed us to look at an actual marker. a possible damage to the blood vessels. the blood vessels are essential in hypertension. the more stiff the blood vessels are, the less likely you'll have control. so it may be a predicter of what will develop hypertension. >> we need to watch our

sodium. hypertension is the silent killer, meaning there are few symptoms before the damage is done. and that makes this next report even more alarming. high blood pressure is taking a toll on an unlikely group. very young children. in fact, there's been a dramatic jump in kids with hypertension ending up in the hospital. >> kyle has suffered from high blood pressure since he was five years old. >> i can easily tell, i feel dizzy, i don't feel well. >> the now 14-year-old has to watch every bite he eats. >> we keep his sodium inhate at 1200 milligrams or less, which is an incredibly difficult thing to do on a daily basis. >> high blood pressure is landing more children in the hospital. the study in the journal, hypertension, finds hospitalizations merely doubled for kids under 18. between 1997 and 2006. the children most at risk were more than nine years old, boys,

and african americans. >> cause damage, ire reversible damage and set them up for cardiovascular disease as an adult. >> experts say the rise in childhood obesity is part of the story. doctors don't know what is causing kyle's high blood pressure. he takes four medications. get plenty of exercise and uses new technology to monitor his bp closely. >> i'm able to put it on by myself. plug in my ipod. it will take my blood pressure, and i can e-mail it to my doctor and my mom. >> clearly, genetic predisposition is part of this, but the obesity issue is huge. should your child be tested? it's recommended pediatricians test it at age 3. >> there are new reports that the latest trends in medicine prescribed for kids in the u.s. we have good and bad news. the number of antibottics under

the age of 18 dropped by 14% by the last decade. from over use of these drugs. the fda says the number of pro scribings soared by 50%. now some people think there is over prescription of those. but this report says there is also better diagnosis of attention deficit and medications with fewer side effects. derek. apparently, virginia governor's deal to keep the redskins headquarters in the commonwealth, not sitting well. republicans and democrats on the house appropriations committee were questioning members of the governor's administration about that very deal. lawmakers wanted to know how come they could prove that the team would love redskins park without that money. the deal was signed two weeks ago and guarantees the skins will stay in virginia for the next eight years.

les and topper. >> a big deal for them. pretty cool out here. >> temperatures in the 60s. this is or overnight low. this is pretty nice. come wednesday, we're going to look back at this, distant memory. exactly. let's start with a live look outside brought to you by michael and son. and we are still looking at temperatures in the 60s in the suburbs. 70 downtown. the dew point is still 60. which is actually pretty good. you get dew points in the low 60s and comfortable. winds south, southeast at 8. and the pressure rising a little bit at 30.08 inches of mercury. okay. live doppler 9,000. a quiet commute on the way home tonight, but there are storms out in west virginia. a big thunderstorm. nothing severe, but this is heavy rain just south of romney and just to the west. they are pushing off to the south and east. no hail, but heavy rain fall. red indicates rain fall rates

of 1 to 1 1/4 inches per hour. we'll zoom back out. we have the warning down toward rocking ham county until 6:00 p.m. that was a storm that did have hail to the west of harrisonburg. we'll put this into motion. next hour, they work their way south and east. they'll cross 81. those are the two areas i'm mainly concerned about. they'll lose their umph. we'll keep a chance of a shower in tonight as well. look at the temperatures. 67 in great falls. 66 in reston. this is great. 69 in rockville. and 69 over in beltsville. okay. gradually heating up. shower possible tonight. warmer tomorrow. it's warmer tomorrow. isolated thunderstorm tomorrow and then hot by wednesday. summer officially arrives at 7:09 and it will feel like summer. mostly cloudy and comfortable. low temperatures in the 60s. winds southeast at 10. now tomorrow morning, not bad.

becoming partly sunny and mild. air quality moderate range, temperatures in the 60s and 70s and by afternoon, well, partly cloudy and warmer. an isolated storm possible. not much happening tomorrow. highs 84 to 88. winds still south, southeast at 10. next three days, 9 weather alert codes are green and yellow and yellow because of heat and thunderstorms. mid 90s wednesday. mid 90s on thursday. next seven days, it does taper off a little bit. still going to be 90 on friday and saturday and maybe 92 on sunday. average high is 86 or 87. not crazy hot. some storms possible friday. keep saturday dry. maybe a shower on sunday and a cold front sunday night and cool us back into the mid 80s on monday. so enjoy this little taste of coolness, because it's going away. >> all right, another gulf major has come and gone and the winner's name, not tiger. >> after holding a share of the lead, the bumpers, the wheels, everything fell off.

joining us now to talk about it, kristen berset. >> thanks, guys. it has been four years since tiger woods has won a major tournament. this weekend he squandered another promising start. joining me now in studio to talk of tiger's game. from 1066.7 the fan and frank hanrahan. guys, they say the first six holes are the hardest. four bogies, rough outing for him. is tiger woods close to a comeback? are we going to see him back? >> he's close, but he's a lot further away than people are giving him credit for. a couple wins this year. what we've heard over and over from tiger is i'm in this to win majors and he hasn't done that in four long years. so i say no tiger is not that close to getting back to where he was. i don't know if he ever will. >> he's in it to win majors and tournaments. he won two this year and he's starting to get that swagger

back. that confidence he's been missing. he's not there yet. he will probably not get to where he was, but he is getting closer. >> the mental game. we saw, like i said, a decent start for him. the first two rounds, 75 on saturday, 73 on 70. is that mental game just not there? >> that's the thing. he is struggling on short game. we saw him on the greens, not doing great. so yeah, will he win four more majors, i don't think so. he wasted the last four years. can't waste this time period and expect to win this record. it's funny we are talking about this now. if you would have told anybody, yeah, he should be at 20. no problem. >> we did see how tough zach was. the winner was plus one. it was tough for everybody there. a week from today, at&t national getting underway. tiger woods event, not a major, but it is his event. can he win his own event? >> absolutely.

i guess he gets to invite who he wants. let's see if i can beat this guy. i remember four years ago when he was in town. he had his red on and he has that persona. it will be great to have him out there. >> we will see jim, who was the leader of most of yesterday. what is it about at&t national that makes it an exciting tournament? >> it's tiger's tournament. he comes to the nation's capital. i'll tell you this, there's nothing better for golf than having tiger woods in contention. yesterday, the nba was celebrating because tiger fell off so fast. they knew they were going to get the ratings because tiger sells golf and without tiger, it's hard to get into golf, especially for those mainstream people that watch it to watch tiger. >> love him or hate him, he is good for the game of golf. thanks so much. of course tiger woods coming to the dmv next week. we will have coverage for you all week long from

congressional. sights and sounds from the tournament, plus a special wrap upshow next week. still to come, more fallout over the resignation of the university of virginia's president. >> but first, a local organization collects food to help those in need in arlington. we'll take you inside the arlington food assistance center in this week's hero central report.
