also at one point fired tear gas into the mosque to try to force those who have been barricaded inside out. those inside have refused to come out. they've been afraid, fearing for their lives. it is a tense situation. on friday the muslim brotherhood called for nationwide protests denouncing egypt's military-backed government. but it turned violent quickly, with gunfire ringing out from both sides protesters stuck in the middle. the wounded rushed to nearby mosques that became makeshift field hospital. volunteers like this man worked to save them. many didn't make it. >> i think he's dead. >> reporter: the egyptian government says it's fighting armed terrorists. state media broadcasts images of protesters attacking security forces and torching buildingings. the muslim brotherhood they say wants to destroy the state. egypt's security forces ordered

west, and inland, you will see the clouds drifting up out of the south which will make for some interesting changes in the weather ahead. temperature wise today is like friday, 80s and low 90s inland, but tomorrow, soaring into the 90s, and chances of early showers next week. >> and for today's top spot, we are heading out to florida today. the orlando florida area and the celebration of running. thousands of runners are gathering this morning for track shack's annual 5k celebration. the incident will mark the official start of running season. i didn't know there was a running season. and our friends at our orlando affiliate wesh will be there all day. so if you're in the area and you're a runner, it's a great day to check that out down in florida. a little wet, but it should be a very fun event. don't want to miss the chance to say hi to grandma em in wisconsin. >> thanks so much. now we want to move on to a real mystery. who has a $1 million winning lottery ticket?

erica. in today's health, extreme dieting. the iowa department of health issued a warning this week after a woman there tried to lose weight by swallowing a tape worm. it is just the latest example of the dangers of using shortcut toes lose weight. nancy snyderman, good morning. this story had all of us scratching our heads that, a, you can even order a tape worm and, b, that someone would take it. we should point out, not only is this illegal to import or sell tape worms in the u.s. and dangerous, it's not a very effective weight loss tool, correct? it's not effective. and the reason the fda has said this is illegal is because this is what happened. you swallow a tape worm and there are hooks on its head and those hooks go into your intestin intestines. tape worms can grow to be 30 feet and break off in pieces and make more. they can get into your brain, get into your eyes and they can kill you. and while they're in your

intestines robbing you of nutrients and food that you need, you don't get skinny. you get sort of a swollen belly and you don't look well. so you may lose a few pounds, but the minute you take the medicine to kill the tape worms, guess what? you go right back to who you are. so this is one of the dumbest thing i've ever heard. >> i like the way you sum it up there, dr. nancy. may be one of the dumbest things, but not the only one out there. a lot of these extreme dieting crazies are on the rise. is it just me or are they on the rise? >> americans do extreme so well. we embrace vomiting and purging off the meals or glutny, but we don't embrace moderation. and i think the sooner you get to look at diet at a four-letter word and you think, how much food do i need as fuel? when can i push myself away from the table and what does that moderation look like? then you're type. increasingly, there's little things that we do every day that trigger the extra weight loss.

a glass of wine today is not wa a glass of wine looked like in 1960. that can easily be an extra 250 calories and then invite you to do more. so you can do the starvation diet, the protein only diet, but at some point in your life, you have to go back to normal. unless you learn what that normal is for you, you're not going to be a success approximately. >> we go back to moderation as we wait for the weight to come off. >> and it doesn't many brace obesity as a disease. >> we'll have to do that segment another day. >> this really is just a kookoo dieting for people who aren't really fat. up next, it is a story of inspiration. a major milestone for the city of boston. that's just ahead. first, these messages.
