thank you for trying out our service and congratulations. >> reporter: waldorf says he believes the cheap's big brains, the group of ph.ds who write the formula to put people together, make all the difference between this place and just another dating service. >> the ph.ds are a special breed. they have expertise in everything from psychology, how do relationships get formed? the computer science and mathematics, to really figure out the complexity of the massive scale of our testimony. >> reporter: what do you say to the skeptics who say, come on, you can't come up with a formula to tell me who i'm going to fall in love with. >> i would say to anyone who is skeptical, go talk to our success couples. >> reporter: it turns out, even the so-called success couples started as skeptics. >> to be perfectly honest, i thought it was kind of weird, like, to meet someone online. it's hard enough meeting people in real life. so, not at all a believer. >> reporter: three years into a happy marriage, they say it worked. researcher john gonzaga, who we took to the restaurant, studies couples like them in

waldorf is 80 degrees. if you are headed out to nationals park, perfect baseball weather. skies and temperatures in the upper 70's. it should remain there for most of the game. through tomorrow a cold front will come through -- a cool front will come through. most of us will be dry and pleasant. on friday a stronger cold front could bring showers into the day on saturday. the total of precipitation is 3 inches lower than where we should be. that is almost the exact number weeper at last year. i thought i would pass that along. sunshine, a little bit cooler through saturday. it will turn partly sunny in the mid 70's. close to 70 on monday and tuesday. that is the very latest. >> let's talk nats. everybody is talking about them. >> they nationals continue to be a good story in washington. the players like each other. the team is winning baseball games. for now, they are one game out of first place. i know is only may, but they were all watching the reds defeated the mets this afternoon. the mets have been battling for first place, but with the loss the national's move into s

in southern maryland we have been watching sprinkles dotting the landscape from waldorf to east of lata there drifting to the west southwest. that's it this morning but a reminder you will need an umbrella just in case. the forecast has the threat of a passing shower. humid in the 70s. better tomorrow. can't rule out we will see one popup shower but less than 20% with 81 and then a warmer day on wednesday -- with highs in the upper 80s. showers around are isolated. it will be mild and muggy. this afternoon a few showers, mostly cloudy. mid-70s. highs around 79 or so on average. mostly cloudy and mild with an isolated shower. lows tonight 60 to 65. 8:21 on the sunset. we are all in the 60s with a lot of humidity out there. reagan national is 67. dew point 62 with an east- northeast wind at three and mostly cloudy skies. you can see this off the carolina coast. a lot of showers here. some of the moisture off the atlantic. and just off of this picture is a nontropical area of low pressure that we will watch for possible development. the odds on that are fairly low. the seven-day forecast

my dad took me to the waldorf astoria on my 16th birthday to see lena horn.de on me at that point in time. i later got to see her again in london. and that's when she basically took me under her wing and treated me like i was her daughter. and, by the way, she was one of the few women that my mother allowed me to also refer to as momma. and that's the way she treated me. i am going to miss her an awful lot. >> so you attribute a lot of your own personal success to what you learned from lena? >> no doubt. no doubt at all. >> natalie cole is on the phone with us. natalie, what did she mean to you? >> hi. you know, lena was an extraordinary woman an an extraordinary performer. my mother and father, of course, knew her very well. i did not meet her until i was a young adult. but she also was reaching out to me as well. the first few years of my career. and her elegance, her stage presence, the way that she would sing a song, i mean i was enraptured. i had a chance to see her one woman show with my late sister carol. and it was quite impressive. i mean she was jus

and waldorf, the upper 60s. 65 in annapolis. and one or two lonely sprinkles here. of howard county. cannot rule out an isolated rain drop or two through the city. and here is a look at the wider view. you can see the bigger push of rain in the panhandle here in the next two hours or so. many more dry hours here in the washington, d.c. area before rain pushes in. i don't think steady rains are likely until late tonight and early tomorrow morning. and satellite pictures show this little low pressure center moving up into the western part of the great lakes. it has a cold front trailing behind it. cloudy and cooler than yesterday by ten degrees or so. and then the low pressure weakens as it becomes eastbound in our direction and will bring showers around. this is 6:00 tomorrow morning in the future cast. and then off and on showers quite likely through the course of the day tomorrow. no real organized risk for severe weather. one or two rumbles and that's about it. and primarily later this afternoon and this evening, maybe some showers. and first pitch today is at 4:4

waldorf and the printer were, the worst type -- my wife had a brain tumor, the worst type.ersity and not understanding how rich and wonderful that is. my wife died in june. people say they had better results. they didn't. like most things in life, it is not about the victory, it is about the struggle. that is what you do every time you keep going. it is a struggle. yes, it is difficult, but that is the struggle. does not matter what the result is, you stand there every day. our forbearers, who shoulders we stand on, they stood there with this respect, sometimes being disregarded, but they stood there so that one day nobody would stand above the law. i will never forget when my wife had chemotherapy, she had the star. the talk about the faces at the bottom of the well. she had to start chemotherapy on a monday and i was there on saturday to get the medication. i gave her the prescription. she said your insurance will cover this. unlike the many americans who don't have coverage, we have insurance. i said it must be a mistake. if the computer says no, the answer is, what, no.

this wasn't people buying yachts, staying the night at the waldorf. this is their retirement money. so i -- this was the problem, the conflict of interest. now, let me tell you how our amendment addresses this problem. my amendment would call for a new clearinghouse regulated by the s.e.c. to assign issuers to a credit rating agency that will give them their first-rating on complex financial products. they would be assigned. that means that an issuer will no longer be able to shop around for a rating, won't be able to pressure a rating agency into giving a good score in exchange for future business. over time, the clearinghouse will monitor the ratings that these agencies give out and refine its method of assignments. it can reward agencies that are more accurate and give us -- and give fewer assignments to those that are less accurate. it will incentivize accuracy. imagine that. in doing so, it will give smaller agencies a chance to get into the action. standard and poor's, moody and fitch did about 94% of the business. the other agencies will get a chance because what is rewarded
