reports to jail. early this tuesday morning, july 20th, 2010. captioning funded by cbs on a busy tuesday morning here at broadcast house, 59th and 5th, at the base of -- >> the broadcast powerhouse. >> that's right. good morning, erica. >> good morning. >> happy birthday to you. >> thank you, harry smith. i appreciate it. i wouldn't want to start my birthday any other way -- >> oh. >> -- than with harry smith. >> oh there you go. i don't know what that means, but let's move on. >> we should. a lot to get to this morning, too. >> yes. there's a new study in "the new york times." they're taking a look at the way breast cancer is diagnosed and basically saying that there could be some problems in the way that it's diagnosed. it's so difficult to detect in its earliest stages that, in fact, some of the diagnoses could be prone to error.

so, now the federal government financing a nationwide study. we're going to get a closer look at this and whether or not you need to be concerned if you've had a recent breast cancer diagnosis, if you know someone who has, whether or not there could be a problem with it. >> all right. also, you know, since this whole thing started down in the gulf some 90 days ago, we had top kills. remember, there was going to be a top kill? you may remember we had the junk shot. >> yes. >> there were all these different names of all these kinds of things. well, now bp is talking about something called a static kill. >> another one. >> yeah. a possible new plan from bp to finally plug up the well. cbs news correspondent kelly cobiella is in grand isle, louisiana, with the very latest on that. kelly, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, harry. yes, 4 1/2 days now with no fresh oil flowing into the gulf, and bp is exploring yet another plan, pumping heavy mud into that well to kill it. the new cap on bp's troubled well is leaking, and two miles away, something is seeping from the sea floor.

but scientists say neither is a threat. >> small seepages we are finding right now do not present, at least at this point, any indication that there is a threat to the wellbore. if we think that was going to happen, we would take immediate action. >> reporter: with this welcome news, bp is now considering a new plan called a static kill, which could permanently seal the well sooner than they thought. a decision on whether to proceed is expected in the next few days. but scientists are still trying to figure out why the pressure in the well is lower than they had hoped. is the oil reservoir itself low as bp believes or is the well leaking? if it is, the build-up of pressure could make a leak worse. >> i would be very, very concerned about anything that's going to occur around the well head, because the last thing you want to do is to have a failure around the well head and it collapse. >> reporter: along the gulf coast, people are beginning to let down their guard. in grand isle, the boom on the beach is going away and sand is being scrubbed clean.

the town's fire chief is clearing away the defenses in the hopes that tourists will come back. >> it's not over, but we are moving forward, you know. there is daylight at the end of the tunnel. >> reporter: what if that oil starts flowing again? >> i guess we start all over. >> reporter: and that is still a possibility. if there's a problem with that well, oil would have to flow into the gulf for up to three days to release that built-up pressure before ships can be reconnected to contain it again. harry? >> kelly cobiella in grand isle, louisiana. thank you so much. erica? >> harry, thanks. oil will most likely be on the agenda this morning when british prime minister david cameron meets with president obama for the first time in the u.s. cbs news senior white house correspondent bill plante has more for us this morning. bill, good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you, erica. oil is on the agenda, and it's not just bp's spill in the gulf. it's also the controversy over the release of the only person convicted in the bombing of pan-am flight 103. and the question is, was he released as part of a deal with

libya for oil? before departing for the u.s., prime minister david cameron told the bbc that had he been in charge, he would not have released lockerbie bomber abdelbaset al megrahi. >> as leader of the opposition, i couldn't be more clear that i think the decision to release al megrahi was completely and utterly wrong. >> reporter: al megrahi was released from prison last august after doctors said he had less than a year to live. now a year later, he's still alive and may live for years. some in congress are calling into an investigation on whether british petroleum pressed for his release in exchange for libyan oil rights. >> i do not know the role that bp played. we certainly didn't agree with the opinion that he should be released, and that's what we annunciated to the government. >> reporter: now a former british government official has admitted talking to bp about the release at the time, but the current foreign minister says that megrahi's release was a

mistake and that bp was not connected with it. erica? >> bill, thanks. and joining us now from lansing, michigan, is michigan republican congressman pete hoekstra, ranking member of the house intelligence committee. sir, good to have you with us this morning. >> thank you. good morning. >> as we just heard from bill, all of these allegations coming out, and we're hearing that apparently there wasn't necessarily a connection, but that's not enough for people. do you believe there could be some sort of a connection between bp, libya and the release of al megrahi? >> well, sure, there is always that possibility, and this is why the government in the uk is going to have to move forward with an investigation. they made a terrible decision a year ago to release this guy. there was no justification for it. there was no rationale for it. this person was part of a scheme that ended up in 270 people being killed. so, there's no rationale. a terrible decision by the government. this government in the uk now has to come back and defend it under these, you know, allegations that there was an

oil-for-release deal made. i'm not sure whether -- i don't believe that that happened, but this government now has to move forward and prove that it did not happen. >> do you believe that we will see the full results, then, of that investigation? because if it does turn out that it happened, clearly, that looks bad. >> clearly. and so, this is why the uk government, i believe, will be forced to do an investigation, why they will have to share that information with america, and most importantly, why they will have to share that information with the families of the individuals who were killed in that tragic plane crash. you know, we went through this with 9/11. the 9/11 families were a very powerful force in bringing about change in the intelligence community. they forced accountability. i think the same thing will happen here with the lockerbie bomber. >> sir, i want to ask you about a report in "the washington post," a two-year investigation done about the intelligence community here in the u.s. because of course, you're a member of the ranking house intelligence committee. yesterday's report saying that

the intelligence committee is too big, it's too expensive, it's redundant. you say you agreed with that. today the paper is coming out and saying that contractors, which as we know, are used across all levels of intelligence, apparently, who may not perform inherently government functions, do it all the time and that what was a temporary fix is dependency. is the u.s. intelligence community too dependent on contractors? >> i think, again, the report that came out today in "the washington post" i think is relatively accurate, and the intelligence community continues to be very, very dependent on contractors for some functions which you would believe should inherently be done by government employees. >> is that compromising the safety of this country? >> i don't think they're compromising the safety, but i think it's bad management practice. if these are inherently government functions, those functions should be done by government employees. they should not be done by contractors. it's just the most effective and the most efficient way to do it is if they were done by government employees and not by

these outside organizations. >> can i get a yes or no, will that change? >> i think it will change, but it will change very, very slowly. >> all right. congressman pete hoekstra, appreciate your time this morning. thanks. >> great, thank you. >> harry? >> all right, erica. now to the ongoing battle over unemployment benefits. senate democrats are expected to have enough votes to break a gop filibuster today. cbs news' chief white house correspondent chip reid has the latest on that. good morning, chip. >> reporter: good morning, harry. you know, this unemployment benefits extension has been stalled in the senate since june. if it passes, millions of americans will start getting about $309 a week -- unemployed americans, of course -- and passage now appears all but certain. >> let me introduce to you, officiate the newest member of the united states senate, carte goodwin. >> reporter: with that appointment, democrats appear to have won a major battle in the long fight to extend unemployment benefits. carte goodwin, now interim senator from west virginia,

replacing the late robert byrd, should give the democrats the 60 votes they need to end a republican filibuster and send the bill for a final vote. monday, president obama accused republicans of indifference to out-of-work americans for refusing to extend benefits. >> it's time to do what's right, not for the next election, but for the middle class. >> reporter: 2 1/2 million workers have been waiting six weeks for relief since benefits expired june 2nd. republicans say they support the extension but want the $34 billion cost paid for by an equal cut in the budget. >> we want to make sure they've got the help they need, but if washington's going to spend that money, then we ought to find offsets in other spending so that we're not adding to the debt. >> reporter: the president fired back, saying the republicans have a double standard. >> the same people who didn't have any problems spending hundreds of billions of dollars on tax breaks for the wealthiest americans are now saying we shouldn't offer relief to middle class americans like jim or leslie or denise who really need help. >> reporter: now, in addition to

goodwin's vote, democrats are also counting on two republican votes. the two republicans from maine, olympia snowe and susan collins. harry? >> chip reid in washington this morning. thank you very much. joining us now is cbs news business and economics correspondent rebecca jarvis. good morning. >> good morning, harry. >> i want to take this out of the political arena and put it into real life for a little while. we're talking about an awful lot of people who are very dependent on this, a lot because this economy, the rebound hasn't happened the way so many people anticipated. >> harry, you're making a really valid point there, which is that many millions of people have been unemployed for more than six months. it's a problem that's lasted a lot longer for a lot of people. and so, when they lose those $309 checks on a weekly basis, it not has an impact on them individually, but it also has an impact on the economy overall, and that's because when people get unemployment checks, research has shown it usually goes directly back into the economy. so, if you're unemployed, you get a check, you spend that

check immediately as opposed to putting it in the bank and letting it sit there. >> it's very interesting. we talk about unemployment numbers a lot. unemployment rate right now is 9. -- >> 5%. >> finally below 10%, but it seems to be languishing in this sort of state of -- it's really so much higher than we're really accustomed to. >> it is much higher than we're accustomed to, and that 9.5% number equates to about 14.6 million people who are out of work. 8.5 million of them lost their jobs as a result of the recession. and what's also scary about that number is it doesn't equate to numerous people who have given up looking for work and who aren't collecting unemployment benefits and who aren't accounted for in the system. so, it's actually an even larger problem than what the numbers show. >> rebecca jarvis, as always, thank you so much. do appreciate it. betty nguyen is at the news desk. let's find out what else is going on in the world. good morning, betty. >> good morning, harry. and good morning to you at home. lines in the shifting sand in afghanistan this morning as the country sets a timeline to take over its own security.

cbs news correspondent mandy clark is there with the details. she joins us there live. good morning, mandy. >> reporter: good morning. this is an aid conference, but most of the talk was about dates. secretary clinton said the u.s. is sticking to president obama's timeline for withdrawal, and president karzai set a date of his own. hamid karzai announced that his forces will be able to take over and provide security on their own by 2014. it's an ambitious goal but one the afghans will have to meet because u.s. forces will not be here forever. secretary clinton emphasized america's long-term commitment to the afghan cause but reminded everyone that president obama would like american troops to start heading home in about a year. >> the july 2011 date captures both our sense of urgency and the strength of our resolve. >> reporter: the u.s. has had a rocky relationship with the afghan president, and the secretary went out of her way to

show that relations were back on track. touring a market that was placed under a tight security cordon well in advance. for once, the u.s. and afghan governments were on message. they both said they're committed to staying the course, but it's said time is running out. betty? >> mandy clark in kabul, thanks. ex-illinois governor rod blagojevich could take the stand today in his corruption trial and it may indicate whether or not he goes to prison. >> reporter: there is no doubt rod blagojevich loves the limelight, playing to crowds at the very courthouse where his fate hangs in the balance. >> looks good. >> reporter: but the last month it's been the prosecutors using his own words to try and prove bribery and corruption charges. their wiretaps capture a foul-mouthed governor jealous of barack obama. >> i mean, you've got this

historic [ bleep ] demi god. >> reporter: seemingly desperate to use his power to appoint the next senator in to something for himself. >> i mean, i've got this thing and it's [ bleep ] golden and i'm just not giving it up for [ bleep ] nothing. >> reporter: he shelled out thousands for designer suits while racking up enormous debts. monday there was testimony from his brother, rob, also on trial, alleging representatives for congressman jesse jackson jr. said they could raise $6 million for blagojevich in campaign cash if their man was appointed to the senate. noted defense attorney steven greenberg says he's far from sure the government proved its case. what does blagojevich need to do on the stand? >> blagojevich needs to convince the people that he's just a blow-hard, that he was just venting, that he had no illegal intent, that he wasn't taking money from anyone and he was just conducting business like he thinks politics should be conducted. >> reporter: his testimony could

be riveting, because as a lawyer, he knows how to handle other attorneys. as a politician, he knows how to handle voters. but this tiny constituency of just 12, the jury, just might be the toughest voters he's ever faced. cynthia bowers, cbs news, chicago. time now for a check of the weather. let's turn to dave price. now, i'm no expert, but let me guess -- >> neither am i. >> it's going to be hot today? >> you got it, betty. let's go to the maps and try to explain why. in fact, let's head to the south. normally, there's a bermuda high and it's kind of sitting out here, and that's what drives a lot of the storms we see riding up and down the eastern seaboard, or i should say up the eastern seaboard. it's moved inland or expanded somewhat. so, all it's doing is pulling that hot air up into the southern plains, central plains, even into the midwest, up through the northeast, and that's what's keeping us really locked in

7:17 r >> 7:17 right now, ladies and gentlemen. harry, erica, back to you. >> we're in a state of suspended disbelief. >> over what? >> because that was a reasonable explanation for the hot, hot weather we've had. >> i spent all morning long

memorizing that. >> and you know what, you did a fine job. >> thank you. >> it's paid off, that studying. >> a bermuda high. who knew? coming up, lindsay lohan's last hope to stay out of jail goes up in smoke. why lohan's celebrity attorney reportedly quit at the 11th hour. also, some major mistakes in diagnosing breast cancer. dr. jennifer ashton is here with the latest on a disturbing new report and what you need to know. and sarah palin's making headlines once again. we'll tell you what she said. this is the "early show" on cbs. can i help you? i'm sandy and i heard you've been struggling with the quilt. i'm here to take you through my 1-step program to break the quilted habit. but i've always used quilted towels. quilted is towel speak for air. but viva puts 35% more towel between you and the mess. wow, 35% more? are you ready to take that 1-step to see what an unquilted viva towel can do? yes, i'm ready. beautiful.

good morning. it's 7:25. in the headlines, it looks like the sickout at a.c. transit continues this morning. more drivers than usual are calling in sick, more than 200 of them missing work yesterday. they are protesting a contract imposed on them sunday after a judge had ordered binding arbitration for a.c. transit and its 1600 employees. right now, about 50 housing activists are occupying part of a building in san francisco'ings mission district. they are protesting reductions in the city's housing budget. police monitoring the situation of the vacant floor of the building on 20th and mission street. and 11 people facing child pornography charges in the south bay. san jose police say all the suspects are accused of downloading sexual images of children as young as 2. the suspects range in age from 17 to 65. traffic and weather right after this. ,, ,, ,,,,,,,,

good morning. if you run into delays with a.c. transit, the roads look good through oakland. this is a live look at the nimitz n. coliseum off to the right and this is northbound traffic. all those taillights towards the high street bridge. so bart would be a good alternate, as well. 880/237 if you are commuting towards silicon valley you can see around that bend westbound 237, kind of slow and go heading towards mountain view.

but our bright spot, the bay bridge toll plaza, despite the metering lights being on, really no delay as you approach the pay gates. that is your traffic. for your forecast, here's tracy. >> hey, thanks, elizabeth. boy, got a whole lot of clouds out there this morning. those cloudy conditions will be with us all day long for the coast, mix of sun and clouds around the bay. and sunshine expected well inland and because of all those clouds that we're seeing currently, we do have delays on arrivals at sfo around one hour and a lot of times the arrivals get in late so your departures are late. so call ahead. here's the seven-day forecast: more sunshine all week but we'll keep some fog in the forecast along the coastline and that will be for the next six days. ,,,,,,,,,,

i think those people are pretending that they're cows, but i'm not sure. it looks like they're ben and jerry's ice cream people. >> that's the universal symbol for a cow. >> don't mess with the bull, you'll get the horns? yeah? welcome back to "the early show." just ahead, there's new information out about breast cancer. the "new york times" reporting diagnosing the early stages of the disease can sometimes be very wrong. we'll talk to dr. jennifer ashton about what it this really means for you the next time you go for a mammography, why in some cases it's a bad thing to have this detection early. >> i've been known to butcher the english language from time to time on this broadcast. >> guilty. >> and apparently sarah palin has boldly gone into the world

of creating a new world -- word. >> exhibit a, harry. >> exactly right. i googled this and she's not the first person to use the word "refudiate." >> and she's having a good time with it. so are a few other people. >> we'll have that story for you. also this morning, the big draw pa on lindsay lohan's big day. just hours before she's supposed to head off to jail, her high profile attorney reportedly quits. cbs news correspondent ben tracy has the latest. >> reporter: behind ze lbehind lohan's latest lawyer has quit the case. according to tms, robert shapiro reportedly told the court he will not represent the actress when she turns herself in later this morning. >> having someone like robert shapiro in your corner one day and no longer in your corner the next is clearly a huge surprise. and something must be going on with lindsay. >> reporter: lohan has spent her

last days at this sober house in west hollywood, surrounded by paparazzi at her mother visited over the weekend. just the kind of spectacle a judge is trying to avoid. she'll order the cameras turned off in the courtroom before lohan is cuffed and hauled out to the wherein wood correctional facility. the jail is now ready for the arrival of its most infamous inmate in years. she'll spend up to 22 hours each day alone in her cell. >> what is this going to be like for someone like her? >> for lindsay who is so used to having so many people around her, who is so used to having access to a twitter account where she can put out a message whether about her dad or the life on her nails, whatever it is, it's going to be really difficult. >> reporter: after she was arrest pod her dui in 2007, lohan spent 87 minutes in the same jail. this stay will be longer, but she will likely serve just a fraction of her 90 day sentence could you to overcrowding. and speculation about her first post-jail interview is already heating up. some say the actress could get paid $1 million to talk.

>> people will definitely want to hear about her experience and we know that she does like publicity. >> reporter: it remains to be seen if doing hard time changes her mind. ben tracy, cbs news, los angeles. joining from us los angeles exclusively is celebrity attorney tom mesereau. good morning. >> good morning. >> how do you read this, this whole thing about robert shapiro coming out of nof nowhere at th last minute 15iing i'm going to work with lindsay lohan and now he's backed away from it. how would you read all of this? >> i think it was a publicity stunt by the lawyer. she didn't need another lawyer. she had already agreed to do jail time, to do rehab. why did she need a new lawyer? >> as she gets ready to head into this, if you were talking to her, what would you tell her she should anticipate? >> it's going to be a great change in circumstances. it's going to be very stark. it's going to be cold in that jail. people who run the jail this my

experience are pretty decent individuals. the sheriff's department run it is. they try to be very professional. but it's not going to be a lot of fun. >> her sentence is supposed to be 90 days or even more. what's the likelihood that she would be in there for, say, more than a month? >> well, i had one client sentenced to 20 days and they actually did 45 minutes one time. so my guess would be with lindsay lohan it's going to probably be between two and three weeks. i say that because, you know, takes high profile case. they know the entire world is looking at what they're doing. and i suspect it will be two to three weeks. >> and what's it like in there? will she be in a jail -- in a cell by herself? >> well, she has to be isolated to protect herself. she's a celebrity. there will be a lot of isolation. there will an lot of sensory deprivation. she probably will be able to use reading material. she won't be able to go outside.

the food will be terrible. it will not be fun. >> from your experience, somebody like this goes into a place like that, do they learn -- is a lesson actually learned? >> yes, it is. many experts in rehab will tell you that people who are addicted to drugs, if she is, i don't whael know. everyone says she is, but i don't know. who go to jail very often derive a lot of benefit from it. if she's in jail, if she's deprived of a lot of the pleasures and spontaneous enjoyments that is he likes to do, it may actually help her. >> and what about does she have to turn herself in and is there any chance that she wouldn't do this this? >> well, there's always a clabs she won't. my understanding is that the judge wants her to turn herself into the judge's courtroom. and she would be very well advised to do that and to be on

time. i suspect she will will. i think it would be crazy if she didn't. >> tom mesereau, we thank you very much for your insightses. we do appreciate it. >> thank you, harry. dave price, who i think is really just taught us a lot in the first weather forecast this morning, is ready with more now. >> if you think that was good -- >> are you going to top it? >> let's go out west and by the way, folk, special today, limited time offer, although it doesn't seem so, is high heat. now, we talked about the bermuda high. now we're talking about a high that was stationed over the four corners but now is moved out into the pacific. so what that's doing is that's sending cooler air which is affecting the coastline, the shore line of the west, and that's bringing temperatures down into the 70s. a real nice drop. meanwhile, as you head inland where this effect is lessened,

at 7:37, that's a look at your weather picture.

>> i'm giving him an a. dave, thanks. up next, we'll speak with dr. jennifer ashton about a disturbing new report this morning on breast cancer exams. one you definitely do not want to miss. stay with us, you're watching "the early show" on cbs.

a disturbing new report in the new york sometimes finds diagnosing the early stages of breast cancer can sometimes be wrong. and in some cases that can lead to unnecessary surgeries a treatments. so joining us this morning with all the details, dr. jennifer ashton. we really need to clear a lot of this up. this is focused specifically on one type of cancer, although it's most common noninvasive form of breast cancer. >> and when you talk about breast cancer, it's really like saying you're talking about the weather. there are so many different types of breast cancer. this particular article really dealt with a type known as dcis or ducktal carcinoma in-situ, the most common type of noninvasive breast cancer. it's also referred to as stage zero. diagnosed about 50,000 cases per year. good news is it's 90% curable,

but it this article concerns that more than 17% of the time it might be misdiagnosed saying there's a cancer there when, in fact, there is not. >> and part of that problem for the misdiagnosis is that the mass that they're dealing with is maybe a few grains of salt. >> correct. there are three basic reasons that any cancer could be prone to misdiagnosis. one is based on imaging. when you're talking about mammography, it's not a perfect imaging modality. particularly in young women. it can see thing this is that are not cancer and it can miss cancers that are there. p further when you into he on and talk about dcis, we're talking also abouts mistakes in the biopsy process. so this is when part of the tissue is removed, a pathologist looks at that slide and has to make the call. is this or is this not cancer? and when you're talking about diagnosing cancer at an early stage, that is fraught with human error. and finally even in this case,

mistakes with treatment. there is controversy amongst melon coal guests and surgeons about how the cancer should be treated and if some cases even if it should be treated because it doesn't always progress to invasive cancer. >> so you may have some procedure done that you didn't need. >> absolutely. and we're talking about here things that are not low risk or low morbidity, we're talking about invasive and potentially disfiguring treatment, surgeries and also the psychological impact and fear and stress on a woman who is not insignificant. so if a woman has been diagnosed with dcis, what should you do? >> so important. number one, get a second opinion and in some cases get a third opinion. when you're talking about a cancer diagnosis, you might want to have that slide reviewed by another path ol sgis. do not fdol like you need to rush to treatment. you have time to consider these options. and lastly, as we say with so many things, consider the risks versus the benefits versus the options to any proposed treatment. >> so good to have you here to flush this all out.

>> since i saw the film, i saw it two days ago, i want to remember my dreams. i want to see how it relates to this. >> and that's just what this hollywood film set out to do, prompting moviegoers to walk out with new ideas planted inside their heads buzzing about the way it made them feel. new ideas, new thoughts, and new points of view about something we've all done our entire lives. >> this one thing that you could take away from this movie is just to focus on your dreams and the greatness of dreams and see where it leads you. >> youmont be afraid to dream. >> lauren lawrence you saw in our report is the dreams columnist for "the daily news." good to have you with us. >> so nice to be here. >> people are always fascinated by dreams because they can be hard to remember. you're always wondering what they mean.

are they important to our daily lives and how we function? >> definitely. dreams allow us to work on anything we are going through. they deal in conflict resolution. they are really wonderful things. >> there really is some meaning behind it then. >> definitely. whatever is stressing us out, whatever we are anxious about we work through. >> so is a dream in some ways a means to some sort of a resolution? >> absolutely. >> give us an idea in particular, because people have such vivid dreams sometimes. sometimes they remember them more than others. if you remember a dream a little bit better one morning, does that mean it's more important. >> yes. you remember the ones that are important to you, unless you're in deep denial then you forget about them. >> then you have separate issues we'll talk about in another segment. are dreams what they really seem to be or always a metaphor. you just heard that woman say i always dream about teeth. >> teeth is a very, very common symbol. it means one thing for women,

one thing for men. for women when teeth falls out, it means there's a void in one's life that one needs to fill or there's a wish to be pregnant. and for men, it's just a sexual fantasy. >> those would be completely different things. >> give me an idea of the types of dreams out there. there are different kinds of dreams. >> there are. there's the regular anxiety, traumatic anxiety dream, the wish fulfillment dream, like i just won the lottery or dated brad pitt. there's self-affirmation, a good dream, you give yourself an action view of what you normally don't have, like flying. that would be a self-affirmation or self-empowerment dream. >> meaning you might have something big coming up and you're trying to psych yourself up for it. >> you're definitely making yourself feel better and larger. >> those are two types. anyone else we should look out for? >> there's an examination dream that's very interesting.

that's where you dream you're at your old school and everybody is taking the test, and you think oh, my god, i didn't study for it. that kind of dream is basically preparedness, where the dream itself is kind of like a test, where you're testing yourself to make sure you stay on your toes so you will never miss something. >> there's the secret to the test dream i think everyone has had. seems like everyone has had that naked dream. that's a specific type of dream. >> it is. it's kind of a motif. the symbol of showing up without your clothes on, it has to do with exposure. it could be the wish to expose to someone or vulnerability. >> is there any way to direct your dreams? >> yes. i have never done it, but i know people have. it's called lucid dreaming or directive dreaming, which is what i call it.

that is when you are dreaming and you're not in a deep unconscious state so you're closer to your subconscious and you know you're dreaming. once you know your dreaming, you can lead yourself around in the dream. >> a lot of people say if you think about something right before you fall asleep, that's the way you can lead. do people do that for resolution? >> yes, anything that troubles you, you can say tower receive, i'd like to have a dream about such and such. if you really think about it and what you know, very likely you will have that dream. >> hopefully in the morning you think about it so you get the benefit of that dream. great to have you with us. some of us aren't able to drink legally but they want to get botox. how young is too young to go under the needle when we return on "the early show." early show" on cbs. >> announcer: "cbs health watch" sponsored by nicorette. quitting sucks. nicorette makes it suck less doubling your chances of success.

everybody knows that's charice. and the buzz was that she had botox to get ready for an appearance on "glee." nearly 5 million people in the u.s. got those shots last year. almost 30% were under the age of 30. that's your headline, folks. dr. jennifer ashton is here to discuss whether there is cause for concern in those mumnumbers. were you surprised to see that? >> a little bit. i'm seeing this in my practice with all types of cosmetic plastic search. it is infiltrating the younger age demographic and anytime you see 18-year-olds looking to cosmetic surgery, there is cause

for concern. the fda has approved botox for cosmetic therapeutic medications in the age of 18 to 35. to most will not consider it below age 18. >> and let's look tat these numbers again. >> tremendously popular when you look at how it breaks down, 0.2% of those who had botox were actually in the 13-19-year-old age group. so obviously outside of the fda indication. about 26% were in their twenty. so, again, this adds up to about 27%, it's huge chunk of the botox users. gr and how do we account for the increase? >> well, listen, i think that when you talk about botox, it can be very helpful for certain people into reducing fine lines. there is a sweeping trend kind of an undercurrent thinking that if you hit those wrinkle areas before they actually have time to form, you're literally preventing where i think link, which is one part of the aging

process. and for some people, that's obviously -- >> so that's part of the popular conversation. do it now so i can continue to augment it over time. >> right. >> are there any literal long term benefits for people who would do this at an early age? >> there aren't thought to be in terms of medical long term side effects or consequences right now and it is thought to be safe both for cosmetic use and therapeutic use. i think the greater concern here is when you talk about teenagers or re young pooem women in their 20s really seeking to prevent the signs of aging, you have to ask yourselves what is their definition of beauty and i think we need to be teaching our teenagers that beauty comes from within as does health. it's not always so superficial. >> yeah. aren't you more beautiful at 30 than you are at 18? >> and 40 better than 30 and 50 better than 40. >> and we haven't had this conversation in a long time.

are there any general botox things to be worried about? years ago when it first came organization people were like my phase will freeze. >> this procedure like any has its known side effects and basically you can have a troop of the nerve usually when it's given on the upper forehead. it can cause your eyelid to droop. there can be bruising at the area. so you want to go to someone who knows what they're doing. >> and if you do get the procedure, what would be a warning sign for something that hasn't turned out right? >> again, if one eyelid is closed that's probably a bad sign. but we have to remember there are people who have into the consider using it and obviously pregnant women, women who are breast feeding and those prone to neurologic conditions should stay clear of botox and recognize their inner beauty. >> if you look like a pirate, you got a problem. all right. dr. jennifer ashton, thank you. still ahead, marriage and religion and what that means for america's most watched, now most

we have a crash there two left lanes blocked and emergency crews are also in the center divide. so traffic is just jammed, some speeds under 20 miles per hour from at least the capitol expressway. as an alternate, 280 doesn't look as bad in the area. this is northbound traffic approaching the 880 interchange heading out of downtown and looks pretty quiet up towards cupertino. at the san mateo bridge, we have a lot of low clouds and fog. but approaching the pay gates, it's pretty busy at the toll plaza. that is your traffic. for your forecast, here's tracy. >> hey, thanks, elizabeth. we're jammed up in the weather department with a lot of clouds. looking towards coit tower what do you see? coit tower with a whole lot of clouds in the background. forecast for today, we are going to keep the clouds expected all day long for the coast. highs in the upper 50s. mid-60s around the bay with a mix of sun and clouds. and if you want sunshine, head inland. highs near 90 degrees.

bat, how best to make this work, what would you tell them? >> first and foremost, i think keep respect for each other and what's important to each other and not really try to change the other person in a way that they're not open to. but having an open mind and being willing to change is always good within a relationship. >> this order to make something like this work, does it not take an extraordinary amount of maturity? >> absolutely. yeah. it has to be not about just getting your way. i think we're all used to having it our way and what we want. but then when you're in love with another person and you're forming a union, it has to be about what you both want and what compromise works for both of you. >> assume both people go into this thing and say i am going to retain my christianity and i'm going to retain my jewishness. how then do you go about planning a family, dealing with the mundane things like family holidays, all that stuff like

that. it may not be part of your every day life right now, but it sure will loom large in the not too distant future. >> exactly. and i think unfortunately what ends up tearing these couples apart sometimes is when they get into having children, then feelings come up for them that they did not expect. if they were ban sized at a young age and now their partner is saying we can't do that, you start feeling, wow, what if my child isn't being accepted in to heaven or whatever it is that you might feel, then it might be more important to you than you realize. >> and you have to assume these people have that had -- they're smart people, they've been around the block a couple times. they're not 19-year-old kids. but this is such an important conversation to have ahead of time to say h this is what my expectations are because once you get in the marriage, it's a little too late to be negotiating this stuff. >> absolutely. failed expectations i think is one of the biggest faults of a marriage anyway. it's one of the big he is reasons it falls apart. everyone thinks we love each other, we'll make it happen.

>> we can make it work out. >> without having that important question about how do we raise the kids. if we convert to one or the other, our whole family is not converting. so what do we do at the holidays? >> and then there's the expectations of the in-laws and grand parents because then there's somebody saying i can't believe she's not doing x or i can't believe they're not doing y. they're not going to come to the candlelight service this year, right? >> and they possibly might not respect your decision, which then could make it more difficult. if you're going to convert and you really have to have your whole family on board and suptsing you in that. so that they're not going to violate your boundary of, okay, now i'm this faith. >> because we're not suggesting either one is going to convert, but if one were going to decide that, you really then do need the support of the rest of your family because then otherwise you may be rejecting them in a whole other way. >> exactly. yeah. and it can work if you don't

convert. reallying an open mind and being open to learning new things should be one of the things stand ghaard in life anyway. how wonderful to an child exposed to both and to be taught a little bit of the jewish religion, a little bit of the methodist religion, and grow up really with the knowledge and hopefully not a bias against. >> the other ones. here's the question. if they came to you and said we're thinking of convert, would you say it's a good idea or bad idea? >> that's up to them to decide, but i would help them walk through all the pros and cons to bthd sides. i guess comes down to how strong is your faith to start with. if you're steadfast in the way that you were raised and that's what you believe, common ality is a big part of relationships. your values and your core beliefs really have to match. so if it's going to be on something as hot charged as religion, then you really need to be able to agree to disagree

and stay with that if you're going to make it work. >> and especially respect the other person. >> respect, absolutely. >> donna barnes, thank you very much. now here's erica. so let's see. you've got a hot date tonight, maybe a job interview tomorrow. but you just didn't know what to wear. you're in luck. taryn is here with a new way for an unbiased opinion and a way to get it fast. >> happy birthday. >> thank you. you can post your videos on youtube and much of your life on facebook. now there's a website that can post your fashion dilemmas and ask total strangers for their feedba feedback. would you try it? we tried it out. what to wear. a question women are always asking but whose opinion do you trust? we headed to macy's in manhattan to find out. when you're trying to figure out what to wear, whose advice do definitely not my husband. >> my sisters. >> reporter: but now instead of

asking family and friends, many women are turning to the internet with sights like fast civ fascism.com. ashly wondered if this was a good summer dress. within minutes the vote was in. >> and they already have five comments. so cute, yes. >> reporter: brooke moreland is the woman behind fascism.com oig. >> i think the stranger has no agenda and you're not just asking one or two people, you're getting opinions from a to be of people. >> reporter: launched just less than a year ago, the site averages about 50,000 hit as day. >> when you're sort of a little bit worried, you're going on that first date, you're all excited but is this exactly right, someone can be there to give that you extra little boost of confidence. >> reporter: let's see if they boost mine. only one way to find out. not necessarily the color i would choose, but let's see what everyone else thinks.

minutes later, time to upload my look. if the old day, i'd ask whoever was around me for their opinion. what do you think of this dress? >> a little loud. >> reporter: but now instead of just one opinion, i have access to thousands. let's see what the fashionistas think. less than five minutes later, i already have about 60s comments. where is it from? it looks great on you. looks fantastic. fits beautifully. i'm shocked. i think it's really fun. you got the bod for it. thank you. maybe it's a lesson. i would never buy this dress, but after seeing these comment, maybe i should. i don't know. i'm still on the fence about that dress. we'll get to that in a second. but we should mention the site isn't just for ladies. men, pay attention, men have been posting their fashion dilemmas as well and why shouldn't they. they go on first dateses, job interviews. >> they don't always care as much as we do probability, but -- and this isn't the only website out there.

>> they're popping up all over the place. go try it on.com just launched. their motto is get an opinion, give an opinion. "glamour" magazine is also catching the wave and what they're doing is interesting because they're teaming up with what to wear.com so they're offering advice from the fashion community with a twist. giving you advice from glamour magazine stylists, as well. >> what are some of the posts like? are they genuinely nice or -- >> i was talking to the founder. i said what about the negative comments. but i have to say they don't allow mean spirited comments and in general the fashion community on the site is very positive. they want you to look good. they want to you look your best. case in point, today i wasn't sure what to wear on the show. deciding between two out fits and i thought which one, let me post it. sody. went to fathe sight and they

voted. there it is. >> that's pretty close. is it always that close? >> it depends on how long you keep it posted. originally i got -- it was basically overwhelming in favor of the white dress over the course of five days, it got more even. but they really want to you look your best. i got comments on the dresses but so many people weighed in on eye o. my shoes. love that dress, but change the shoes. at the look terrible. and i wasn't even thinking about the shoes. >> the shoes make the outfit. come on. >> i know. so they care. they wa they want you to it look your best. >> knowing that it is fairly positive, it's a good thing. do you think having tried it out you'd ever do this again? >> absolutely. i think it's great because you need a quick fashion fix. you're going out in 20 minutes, don't know what to wear, you get a quick opinion. but a lot of times the first opinions don't always speak to the general consensus. like this dress. what did you think of this dress? >> on the hanger, i'm with you,
