0 years, buú justice department prosecutors say they areegoing to try to get life in prison for ghalani. keep in mind. the reaction is split. other human rights activity say this is justice at play.

more likely to drink and drive. they're mooe likely to get in the caa with somebody who has been drinking and driving. they're more likely to be sexually assaulted and more likely to be sexually assaulted by someone else. p> whattis what is happeeing in your body thattmakes all of those outcomes then happen? >> one important thing to remember is this all new research. a lot of new research has to be done, but a lot of people believe because the caffeine is making people more alert, may be reducing someone's awareness of how much they drink. >> they feel like they're up and ready to go. >> they feel like they are up anddready to go. because of that they may drink for and become more intoxicated and be more likely to have the negative outcomes. >> one thing witt the four loko is drinking that one can is the equivalent of drinking 3 to 4 beers much even if you take the caffeine out, isn't that problematic within itself. within a short period of time that is problematic regardless of caffeine. >> they are talking about banning the caffeine in alcohol ú%inks. someone is questioning, you can go to a bar and order a red bull and vodka. -ow can you ban all of those things and is that necessary? are we talking about thiengz tht are targeted to the kids. >> i can only speak to the ines -nd whether or not it should be i'm not a policy expert to tell you that. if

be complicated at best and hostile at worse. confllct can kind of buildup for the folks across the year. now you're forced to have to deal with things because you're in one setting. you can't play the role. there's three things people can do for the holidays and deal with tte stress. >> walk us through it. >> deal with conflict with people in your family. one you can forgive it, forgiveness is about me. it's a choice i make. tte second is resolve it in advance, do what we have to do, mediate, and the 3rd is we deccde to tabbe it until after the holidays.ú%those are one ofe options. if you don't do one of the 3, then it's going to bubble up. >> what is the secood thiig. right. this is something i had to learn. >> that is difficclt at times. >> we all have opinions on how people should live their lives, but it's not always our business. if someone is asking for your input, you give it and then they have the right to take it or not. you can't tell people how to cook the turkey or do theii thhng. >> it always happens..3 >> and then the 3rd go to give. it has been a blessed year for so many of us, people have been laid off and people are gging through divorce. it's a challenging time. when you go for your holiday, thanksgiving go and be of good cheer. if you're here as to what you're going to do for me it changes everything. >> vanessa thank you so much. >> we're going to get

whenever, and it's just cut you off here and there? >> can you clarify what you mean by here and there? >> you don't see them often. >> yeeh, they just want to talk to you whenever. >> there's not a continuous connection. >> sometimes, it's a difficult question, but sometimes you have to just take what someone is willing to give. the biggest upset can be, well, i have this expectation of what our relationship should be like, how close we should be. the other person doesn't always have that expectation. you want to be clear. what do they want, if they're here and there, there's beauty -nd magic in the half an hour that we have that peeson. you can voca vocalize and managg your own expectation. maybe this s the best the person can give and you make decisions based on that. >> we hope that helped. hope you have a great thanksgiving. and earnest is on the line. good morning earnest. >> what do you say when the person can't cook and the food is just nasty? >> oh, earnest? >> now that is a bad situation,3 because thanksgiving and all of that, that is the time when you really want to eat up. the first thiig you want to do, do not tell them that the food is bad.ú you really don't want to do that. you can actually offer if you're a cook or your wife, whoever, you can offer to ring something and contribute so you know you have one dish that is going to meet your need. the whole spirit of the holidays is really about connection and it's about giving. and there could be worse things in the world, 'cause you could beewithout food altogether. you want to appreciate the heart that people have given to serve you, to open up their home and it becomes about the graciousness at that point. gg get you meal afterwards. >> i hope that earnest family isn't listening to this, because he might have started some holiday tension. >> exactly. >> earnest enjoy your thanksgiving. thank you for coming this morning. coming up in the 8:00 hour, between loading the car and filling up on gas, a

of the lincoln's head, then it's not a ú%od tread. %-you need a new tire.3s head, you should do that every month. the other good important tip you need to do is to check the tire pressure, very simple. first of all, don't use your eyes and look at them. a tire can be by percent under inflated and it might not look take the gage and read it. >> reporter: you can even test that at t gas station, too. a lot of people don't know what it should be. what pressure should you have some. >> that information is found on the driver's side door. you open the door and it should be right there. don't look as the tire's side wall. that as the maximum pressure of the tire..3 you will over inflate. >> reporter: if they're not right that could affect your ride home this holiday. >> your tires are the only things that coonect your car to the road. if your tires are under flatted, you can lose control and it's very dangerous. if they're under inflated, you can waste gas too. >> thank you,

backyard. the fence came through the front yard across the street and all the way into their neighbor's front yard. that fence over there came from the street acrosssthe street. one of things we have seen in the neighborhood. the trees hhve een uprooted. the power lines were on the ground yesterday. least temporrrily fixed. yesterday they were laying on the road and we are still sseing debris on

will find out later today if it was a tornado. >> reporter: it doesn't take a lot to do that kind of destruction. we have a dry scan out there. only clouds will be moving through the day moving into the area through the day. you can see the wind really very calm. indeed calm winds in hagerstown. this say whole lot better scenario today as the low pressure moves well off to the north and east and takes that frontal boundary with it, that severe weather last tuesday into now we looking at a cooler northwesterly flow later in the day. that is going to bring the temperatures to be near seasonable even though it will be a few degrees cooler than yesterday. the light winds not a bad picture at all. the high pressure is going to continue to slide to the east. it's milder air looks toward the beginning of next week as we head toward thanksgiving. we have to wait and see if the jet stream takes a dip or not. it will be milder in the low pressure center which could be a weather maker in terms of bringing rainfall our way. it looks like it will be just that, rain rathhr than snow. as the cold jet streams back in and allowing the cold air to come back in and the flurries with the rain. changes from the warmmstart to the earlier fiiish most likely. the emperatures in baltimore and d.c. so clearly it's temperature that are cooler than yesterday at this hour. 43 in salisbury, 48 up in hagers at 38 degrees. where we're headed from here, 58 degrees at the eastern shore -ith partly cloudy so sunny skies there. central part of the state 5-10-mile-an-hour wind, and 66 degrees for the high temperattre. look for that come around, at 2:00 or 3:00 in the afternoon. the mainly clear skies to come. ann then the clouds will start to move through and out of here by later tonight as we clear out then. the western part of maryland, go degrees, and mainly clear skies by tonight as 34 degrees will make for a colder night. tomorrow 52 degrees for the high but plenty of sunshine. 58 on saturday, these temperatures bouncing up and down. 34 degrees on sunday and then 60 for monday. in comes the milder air, 55 for tuesday and late it looks like rainshowers for my.ú a high of 58 on
