37% had at least one or more cardiovascular disease risk factor. >> reporter: despite the grim statistics and the rise in diabetes the study found the prevalence of obesity in adolescence with a plateau. >> we think that may be why they're not seeing an increase in the prevalence of prehypertension and hypertension as well as high and borderline ldl in children. >> reporter: experts say

graduation party for priscilla chan his girlfriend. they've been dating since under grad at harvard. a little graduation party from med school. she's got her own job. and he turned it into a wedding for under a hundred people. he may have worn a hoodie for the ipo for facebook on wall street but he wore a suit in the wedding and she a beautiful gown and everybody is asking and wondering, prenuptial? i don't know this. it's under lock and key. but my feeling on this one is no prenuptial. i think he doesn't care. $20 billion, $10 billion, $5 billion she takes half? what do i care? i am worth so many billion. he doesn't even have a mansion yet. he lives in a regular house, drives a regular car. this guy is immune to money. >> let's just hope he's happy. >> she knew him well before he

at the bee gees over history. they're number three on the billboard, hot 100 singles chart. the beatles are ahead of them shall the supremes. but they've had more number ones, nine, and just incredible. it seems to be like there is an attack on disco here losing donna summer and now robin gibb but what a legend. we look back tonight on "access hollywood" at the tragedy. they had a song in 1978 called "tragedy" the tragedy that's come back to this family. barry gibb is the only one left. we have a wonderful interview we did with robin just a few years ago and just to hear his self--effacing nature and for a guy who has made such an impact on the world of music great stuff. >> and of course we have all enjoyed their music. there was a moving tribute to donna summer last night at the billboard music awards as well as to whitney houston. >> yeah. whitney houston, i mean, it was a gorgeous rendition by jordan sparks singing whitney and of course bobby christina was there and spoke her first words. i can't believe the poise on bobby christina. i thought she'd be a nervous wreck but she was so comfortable and gracious in thanking the audience. sitting next to bobby christina, a little controversy unfortunately comes with a beautiful night of performances and is raja, brandy's younger brother who is i guess dating whitney in the epd. no one knows the exact details of the relationship but he was sitting next to bobby christina. pat houston, whitney's sister wanted to be. she asked for him to move. he wouldn't move. there was a report of eight uniformed officers being inside the theater trying to remove him. then pat had to ultimately make the call do we want to cause a big scene? she said no. so he stayed there the rest of the night. sadly it reminds me of whitney's funeral a little bit with bobby brown. wanted him to move and ultimately he leaves and it seems to be a little drama wherever we go. it was a beautiful, beautiful night. a great tribute to whitney as well as killer performances by katy perry and usher and bieber and many others. >> what else you got coming up tonight? >> we've got a great look back at the life of robin gibb. it's just an interview that is very intimate and we spent a lot of time with him and so to really get a feel of the impact of the bee gees in music history you'll walk away feeling great. it's an awesome piece. we'll focus on that. >> we look forward to it. we'll see you at 7:30 tonight. thanks so much. after seven years on "saturday night live" comedianne christine wiig called it quits. ♪ ♪ >> there he is, mick jagger. it was quite a sendoff. the popular and versatile cast member got a musical sendoff, dance off if you will. wiig's characters have been penelope the neurotic,

follow news 4 online. just search nbc washington. we're on facebook and twitter, too. we're having to get out there twice a week and cut our grass. there was a viewer that called in almost complaining to me earlier going, i've got to cut my grass. >> i know. >> it was at the beginning of spring that it was so dry around here but now of course we've made up for all of that with such a wet month here of may. let's talk about the conditions right now because if you're not getting any drizzle, you're probably getting some rain showers right now. it's drizzly, damp, rainfall amounts throughout the area. .18 inch of rain la plata, maryland. rockville, maryland with spoi 33 inch of rain. severna park down to the south and east .13. folks, we're talking about being wet for the next couple days and the bulk of the week so it's mind over matter, right? shouldn't matter too much. so just put on a positive attitude for the week. 74 degrees right now with the wind out of the south at 10 miles per hour. and generally most of this week, too, we'll have a southeast to more of an easterly wind with these little areas of low pressure coming through. you got showers for 9:00, 11:00 p.m. early tomorrow morning some drizzle, some mist. even some fog around the area with our temperatures dropping down to the low to mid 60s by tomorrow morning. so we've got tropical storm alberto. it's off the coast of the carolinas. it's way down here. we've got an area of low pressure just to our south. we've got another area of low pressure and that one in kentucky. so all of the systems are going to keep us wet this week. and what is going on right now is of course that we do have showers pushing into our area as opposed to through our area with that easterly wind. we've got showers down toward front royal and moving off to the east so they'll be heading toward winchester and toward white post but rain pretty much light rain for most of the evening here so again it's umbrella weather for the evening. here is a look at your future weather. this area of low pressure hangs down toward here tomorrow morning, misty conditions, drizzles. we have another area of low pressure that's going to come into our area for tomorrow afternoon and that means the threat of not only showers but maybe some thunderstorms for the afternoon. this area of low pressure will be moving very slowly so even on wednesday there is the threat of rain. more showers and even some afternoon thunderstorms with any heating that we get and then one more day after that, too, for thursday. we could pick up another 0.5 to maybe inch plus throughout the area by the time we wrap this up on thursday. 65 to 70 degrees. we're humid, sprinkles, and drizzle around the area. again, with those cloudy and damp conditions then fog for tomorrow morning which will be pretty dense in some locations. probably down below a mile visibility. drizzle, showers. 58 to 64 degrees. traffic is probably going to be bad in the morning. again, an early start. just try and stay on top of the week's weather. 76 to 80 degrees your high temperature. so at least this pattern doesn't have us stuck in the 60s. it's going to be humid with temperatures in the upper 60s, upper 70s most of this week to near 80 degrees. around 80 on friday when we finally start to come out of it all. again, wet weather. we'll talk about the memorial day forecast coming up in a couple minutes. >> the big weekend is upon us. >> a huge weekend. >> all right. thanks. still to come on news 4 at 4:00 the mother accused of taking her child to a tanning salon says all this media attention is impacting her daughter. ♪ a couple of guys up to no good in the neighborhood ♪ plus will smith breaks out an old school rap we gotta sell the car. where would we even start? get the car. hi howard. get in. hi, good to see you. start with an actual written offer when selling your car, no strings attached. carmax. start here. welcome back at 4:30. i'm jim handly. >> i'm pat lawson muse. we'll go live now to chicago where the president has been speaking at the nato summit. >> first we reached agreement on a series of steps to strengthen the alliances, defense capabilities over the next decade. in keeping with the strategic concept we agreed to in lisbon and in order to fulfill our article five commitment to our collective security we agreed to acquire a fleet of remotely piloted aircraft, drones, to strengthen intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance. we agreed to continue air patrols over our baltic allies which reflects our unwavering commitment to collective defense. we also agreed on a mix of conventional, nuclear missile, and missile defense forces that we need and, importantly, we agreed on how to pay for them. that includes pooling our resources in these difficult economic times. we're moving forward with missile defense and agreed that nato is declaring an interim capability for this system. america's contribution to this effort will be a phased adaptive approach that we're pursuing on european missile defense and i want to commend our allies who are stepping up and playing the leadership role in missile defense as well. our defense radar in turkey will be placed under nato control. spain, romania, and poland have agreed to host key u.s. assets. the netherlands will be upgrading radars and we look forward to contributions from other allies. since this system is neither aimed at nor undermines russia's strategic deterrent i continue to believe that missile defense can be an area of cooperation with russia. second, we're now unified behind a plan to responsibly wind down the war in afghanistan. a plan that trains afghan security forces, transitions to the afghans, and builds a partnership that can endure after our combat mission in afghanistan ends. since last year we've been transitioning parts of afghanistan to the afghan national security forces and that has enabled our troops to start coming home. indeed, we're in the process of drawing down 33,000 u.s. troops by the end of this summer. here in chicago we reached agreement on the next milestone in that transition. at the isaf meeting this morning we agreed that afghan forces will take the lead for combat operations next year in mid 2013. at that time isaf forces will have shifted from combat to a support role in all parts of the country. this will mark a major step toward the goal we agreed to in lisbon -- completing the transition to afghan lead for security by the end of 2014 so that afghans can take responsibility for their own country and so our troops can come home. this will not mark the end of afghanistan's challenges, obviously, or our partnership with that important country. but we are making substantial progress against our core objective of defeating al qaeda and denying it safe haven while helping the afghans to stand on their own. we leave chicago with a clear road map. our coalition is committed to this plan to bring our war in afghanistan to a responsible end. we also agreed on what nato's relationship with afghanistan will look like after 2014. nato will continue to train, advise, and assist and support afghan forces as they grow stronger and while this summit has not been a pledging conference it's been encouraging to see a number of countries making significant financial commitments to sustain afghanistan's progress in the years ahead. today the international community also expressed its strong support for efforts to bring peace and stability to south asia, including afghanistan's neighbors. finally, nato agreed to deepen its cooperation with partners that have been critical to alliance operations as in afghanistan and libya. today's meeting was unprecedented. our 28 allies, joined by 13 nations from around the world -- europe, the middle east, north africa, and asia. each of these countries has contributed to nato operations in different ways. military, political, financial, and each wants to see us do more together. to see the breadth of those countries represented in that room is to see how nato has truly become a hub of global security, so, again, i want to thank all my fellow leaders. i think the bottom line is that we are leaving chicago with a nato alliance that is stronger, more capable, and more ready for the future. as a result, each of our nations, the united states included, is more secure and we're in a stronger position to advance the security and prosperity and freedom that we seek around the world. so with that, i'm going to take a couple questions and i'm going to start with julie pace of ap. >> the nato summit in chicago winding down. leaders focusing on wrapping up their involvement in afghanistan. as you heard the president by 2014 protests today were notably smaller and more peaceful than the demonstrations over the weekend that drew thousands to the streets of chicago. just two weeks from her court date the woman who has attracted nationwide attention as the tanning mom is speaking out. >> in an exclusive interview patricia krentcil told nbc that she never took her young daughter into a

about -- that of a busy housewife and mother of five kids. >> i'm up at 3:00 in the morning making sure all the wash is done, my husband goes to work at 4:30. he works on wall street. and i make pancakes, pack their bags, and they're all off and gone. and then i work all day inside and outside of this house. >> reporter: in her back yard on a sunny day we spoke to krentcil exclusively about

>> reporter: prosecutors say krentcil's daughter anna now 6 turned up at her elementary school with a sunburn last month prompting a school nurse to contact police. although krentcil admits her daughter was burned she says it was caused by the sun and not artificial rays from a tanning bed. >> it was beautiful out and they went in the kiddie pool. she's a red head. she got sun burned. >> reporter: but essex county prosecutors allege anna's burns were caused by a trip to city tropics, a tanning salon krentcil visited up to 20 times a month. she has been charged with second-degree child endangerment. earlier this month krentcil pled not guilty in court. >> good morning, your honor. >> reporter: she continues to proclaim her innocence. >> i'm fighting these charges because i'm not guilty. every allegation was completely wrong and i just want people to leave us alone. >> reporter: but, like it or not, she has remained in the spotlight. her overly bronzed appearance making headlines and punch lines. >> she looks like wylie coyote after the dynamite stick blows up. >> reporter: she's inspired an action figure and even a skit on "snl." >> piece of bread. >> yeah? >> put it between my thighs. oh, my gosh. >> toast. >> reporter: krentcil says she has taken it all in stride. her kids have not. >> they're mad they're picking on mommy again. >> reporter: she says what upsets her most is how her tan complexion brought on negative comments about her parenting. now she has a message for those who judge her. >> step back, look in the mirror, and look at yourself instead of looking at me. i'm sorry i'm tanned. i like to be tanned. it just feels good. >> krentcil says she is looking forward to her day in court next month because she says she is innocent. a new
