a young man is dead, but robbie didn't -- was not necessarily the one responsible for killing him. so what do you think? mailbag@wusa9.com. don't pack up that umbrella just yet. they could stick around, anny is here to let us know how long the forecast will rain. but first, the nato summit in chicago ends with a promise about the end to the war in afghanistan. protest, that is just not soon enough. nato wrapped up the summit by firming up plans by ending the war in afghanistan. hand over the lead combat roll by sometime next summer and end the combat mission by the end of 2014. but that does not mean all the nato troops will be out of there. some will have to stay to support afghanistan's own forces. >> nato will continue to train, advice, and assist and support afghan forces as they grow stronger. >> meantime, outside the summit, protesters once again out there making noise, many downtown chicago businesses, including boeing, shut down. in anticipation of protesters, one scuffle with police led to 45 arrests. just over one month, tiger woods and the at&t nationals will hit the links. the tournament is returning to the storied course in bethesda after being held the last two years in philadelphia. and today, it was media day for the event and tiger kicked off the event with a chipping contest against fans and then the world's former number one golfer spoke to the media about coming back to d.c. for the first time in three years. mike got a chance to speak with him one on one. >> why didn't you just donate money to foundations already going? why did you decide education was where you need to go? >> it's my upbringing. it felt comfortable, you know. i didn't want to become a golf foundation. i was raised with education first. family then education. without my mom, especially my mom's art and diligence. >> she was the tough one, right if. >> i would never have gone to stanford, but she was always on me about that. education must come first and she was always on me about, you know, trying to improve my brain. get smarter. trying to blah. it became second nature to me. eventually, i got lucky enough where i got a scholarship and even then, i realized that i still had a long way to go. but it definitely fit into how i was raised and that was a direction we took the foundation. >> the preparedness thing struck me. the young gentleman you talked to, said he wasn't prepared for his class. did that play a part in making the foundation switch to an education focus? things like that when you heard stories like that? >> that's not why we did it, but it became a by-product of it. once we started getting into education and started realizing that it was the way to go. started seeing that these kids are not prepared, they are behind the curve. they have never been on a computer before. it is second nature to have an iphone or ipad or i touch. these kids never had one. how are you supposed to compete? they are left behind. they have never been on google. they don't understand that. they don't understand what a search engine is. if you're beginning to college, or think you might want to go to college, you are so far behind. we aren't going to leave the kids behind. we are going to get them up to speed. that's what we're doing. >> mom literally was a tiger mom. another perk, getting to play the famed blue course at congressional, even though the weather was dreary. topper shutt and mike met up in our foursome. no word on who shot the lowest. might have been top. >> you think?

that's the light rain for tonight. tomorrow morning, the commute shouldn't be too bad with the exception of areas of fog. otherwise we'll see more showers developing in the afternoon and also in the evening hours. i think tomorrow's evening commute has a better chance to be wet and we'll see showers around wednesday. more showers and a couple thunderstorms are possible as well. we need the rain and we are going to take it. all right, so for tonight, cloudy with scattered showers. lows in the 60s. downtown, cooling down to 64. gaithersburg. 62 degrees. for tomorrow morning, grab your umbrellas. mostly cloudy with scattered showers. areas of fog. keep that in mind if you're living in an area prone to fog and for the afternoon, mostly cloudy, more showers. more widespread and a couple thunderstorms are possible. high 77 to 82 degrees. in cumberland, winchester 77. warrenton 79. manassas also getting up to 79 degrees. just a little warmer compared to today's high of 75. d.c., 80. annapolis in the upper 70s. here's a look at your seven-day forecast. more showers and storms through wednesday and thursday. lower 80s. friday, we warm things up in the mid 80s and take a look at saturday. we are all excited for the big memorial holiday weekend. it's going to feel like it, especially for saturday. upper 80s, close to 90 degrees. only a chance for isolated storms for the holiday weekend. most of the moisture will have passed through just in time for all of those folks. >> i see lots of thunder and lightning. >> we'll be back. >> we want to hear what you think. send your e-mails to mcginty's mail bag. the address, mailbag@wusa9.com. 9news now will be right back. in the mail bag tonight, reaction to a story last week on a restrictive abortion law. house republicans would like to force upon the district. congresswoman eleanor holmes norton said she was not allowed to testify. william, who says he's a reverend, says norton has nothing to complain about. as representative frank made clear from the beginning, democrats had an opportunity to submit one witness and she wasn't it. if she were it, she would not be representing the thousands of district aborted children given no choice to even live. so much for voting rights, tell the whole story. you should tell the whole story, reverend. except norton argues it's congressional etiquette. that goes above and beyond whatever other witnesses may have been called. and then, there was this reaction to the story we aired last week on that new evidence in the trayvon martin case. craig from king george, virginia, says i was wrong to say that the accused shooter, george zimmerman, had racially pr filed trayvon martin. rarely do you make a mistake, but you have to re-examine the circumstances about zimmerman being racist or martin was being followed simply because he was black. that black hoody may have had more to do with the situation than anything else. craig, you may be right. the origin until tape of the conversation between zimmerman and that 911 dispatcher that seems so wrong at first was edited by a news organization in a way to make zimmerman appeal to be profiling trayvon. regardless of everything else, if zimmerman obeys that very same thing and stays in his car, we're not having this conversation. personally, conversations like this are a favorite part of my day. the address is mailbag@jwusa9.com. that is my report along with anita brikman. topper shutt is back as well. log on any time. we'll see you a bit later. bye bye. now, "entertainment tonight," the most-watched entertainment news magazine in the world. ♪ you need to show >> the latest on the death of bee gee robin gibb. ♪ how deep is your love >> his final hours. >> he was fighting to survive. fighting to hang in. plus -- ♪ stayin' alive the brothers family feud. >> i have been deliberately disinvolved. >> barry, nothing and no one can come between me and you. >> and the decade they defined. then, the emotional tributes to donna summer and whitney houston at the billboard music awards. maria shriver and the hollywood stars who came to say good-bye to robert kennedy jr.'s wife. then -- >> you referenced maria. how's your relationship today?
