i indicated to president mubarak tonight is my belief an orderly transition must be meaningful, it must be peaceful and it must begin now. >> protesters insist they will not leave the streets until mubarak is gone. and there are signs the military won't interfere. tonight, soldiers at checkpoints did nothing to stop crowds from entering public squares. and the military has promise -- promised not to fire on peaceful protesters. some say the protesters have come to the streets because they are hungry for democracy. as derek mcginty successes, in "let's be real." perhaps they are angry. >>

of oil, gas and sugar and grains hit all-time highs. think about this -- a credit survey says the average egyptian spends about 41% of their income on food, compare that to -- compare that to americans at 10%. it's easy to oversimply fi this and there are simply a lot of factors in this, including the rebellion in tunisia that sent that letter scrambling out of that country. egyptians want a more responsive government. what they need, let's be real, is food. and without providing it how long can any new government survive? >> thank you. spotsylvania father is outraged. he said his son

that phone call from school officials back in december. at the center of it all -- a spitball incident. andrew wouldn't speak on camera because his attorneys asked him not to. however, his father says he knows his son and they shouldn't have used a plastic tube like this one to shoot this at -- to use this and throw plastic balls to classmates. >> that was wrong, yes, it was. >> reporter: the biggest part of the punishment, andrew senior says, is his son, not being allowed to return to school. >> you do this. you pay this. you bring the scales back in the balance. he did this, he was paid this. his whole life is scared, his whole future is changed because of one spitball. >> reporter: this father and his son are worried this could jeopardize him pursuing a military career, just like his father, after high school. >> the family and their lawyer says they will continue to appeal the decision, even if it goes as far as the u.s. supreme court. now, none of our various calls or

block. >> and so i have to take care of myself to be able to take care of everyone else and i think sometimes moms we forget that. >> holly is sa wife and mother of three whose husband is in iraq. he was able to come home for their 10th wedding navy and surprised his bride with a renewal of vow ceremony at their church. >> this is a picture a friend took. i had the biggest look of surprise and happiness on my face. >> now holly plans to surprise him. she's been working to get back in shape and has come to see this dermatologist. >> i select my fillers based on the patients' objective and also what the patients' time life is. >> she's injecting derma fillers in her eyes and cheeks. it's not one brand fits all. she uses one with silk under her eyes. it's made with acid, a natural sure gan and has the consistency of pudding. she says it gives a soft, natural look in areas like the eyes and lips. there's tiny beads of calcium making it more like jell-o. it's used to country and mold the cheeks and get rid of wrinkles around the mouth. she says by the end of this year, we're likely to have 11 different brand fillers to choose from. >> the goal is to not look like i'm 25, but just to look decent and happy and healthy for my age. >> she looks great. holly also had injections of the cousin of botox in the frown lines and crow's feet. many are recommending these instead of surgery. the price tag, several hundred to several thousand dollars. that's why knowing ahead of time before you invest. tomorrow morning, a new technique that's far better for getting rid of the deeper lines around the mouth, for a look that's natural, not that i've had something done. not that you guys would ever -- >> it still requires a needle. >> my grandmother said beauty knows no pain? she was right. >> face-lift versus a needle, i don't. >> okay. here is the deal. we have some icing north and west of town. downtown temperatures still above freezing. to break it down, frederick, hagerstown could see icing and the problem with that, we may see wind. fog and flooding, d.c. south and east, late ton and tomorrow. freezing rain, yes. still extreme north and west. fredrick, north and west. rain for the morning commute will probably taper off toward the end of the commute. i would allow some extra time anyway. and then becoming windy in the afternoon, 20, 25 miles an hour. that's not good if we see some flooding and icing to the north. look at this storm. it's just amazing. all right. blizzard conditions in chicago. tremendous ice storm around i- 80 over the next 12 hours, debilitating ice storm. as far as we're concerned some of the colder air has morned into montgomery county and fredrick county. let me show you the doppler. rain, south of town, bethesda rain, even leesburg rain. to the north we're seeing temperatures around 32 or a little bit below, fredrick, mount airy, we will zoom in a little bit. mythburg got 29. they have freezing rain. 34 at national. that's okay. 33 in bethesda and rockville. but you get up to gaithersburg, 32. i think d.c. south and east remains above freezing tonight. so consequently, major icing still possible, frederick, to martinsburg, hagerstown and with winds in the afternoon .50 will cause problems. some icing is problems. but we don't see any power problems and primarily rain south of town as we go through the morning. so overnight, freezing rain north and west, mainly rain d.c. south and east and fog overnight as well. 2 to 34. now, tomorrow morning, freezing rain extreme north and west. rain elsewhere will be ending. i think by the time the rain ends north and west it will be over with in terms of being freezing. temperatures 28 to 40 and then afternoon might even see some breaks in the clouds. at least we go back up into the 40s. the next three days -- upper 30s, colder on thursday, clouds come in friday. but nice. 45, pretty decent for early february. next seven days, watching that weak coastal. quite frankly, rain may end the snow in the mid- to upper 20s. nice on sunday and monday and then rain to snow again with a weaker system on tuesday with temperatures in the upper 30s
