Faces of some of the hundreds killed in Egypt's two-week-old uprising are beginning to emerge from the fog of chaos. Details of the lives lost have started to appear in Egyptian newspapers, on websites and in huge posters put up in Cairo's Tahrir Square, the center of the revolt that erupted Jan. 25. The paper next to the photo reads in Arabic "Sally the martyr. She taught Egyptian people the meaning of manhood". (AP Photo/Tara Todras-Whitehill) (AP)

A young anti-government protester has his face painted in the colors of the Egyptian flag at the continuing protest in Tahrir Square in downtown Cairo, Egypt, Monday, Feb. 7, 2011. Egypt's embattled regime announced Monday a 15 percent raise for government employees in an attempt to shore up its base and defuse popular anger but the gestures so far have done little to persuade the tens of thousands of protesters occupying Tahrir Square to end their two-week long protest, leaving the two sides in an uneasy stalemate.

Thousands of anti-government protesters gather in Tahrir Square, Cairo, Egypt, Monday, Feb. 7, 2011. The protests, which saw tens of thousands of people massing daily in downtown Cairo for demonstrations that at times turned violent, have raised questions about the impact on the economy. More than 160,000 foreign tourists fled the country in a matter of days last week, in an exodus sure to hammer the vital tourism sector. (AP Photo/Manoocher Deghati) (AP)

Anti-government protesters sit and lie inside the tracks of an Egyptian Army tank, both to prevent them from moving and to shield themselves from the rain, at the protest site opposite the Egyptian Museum near Tahrir Square in downtown Cairo, Egypt Sunday, Feb. 6, 2011. Egypt's vice president met a broad representation of major opposition groups for the first time Sunday and agreed to allow freedom of the press and to release those detained since anti-government protests began, though Al-Jazeera's English-language news network said one of its correspondents had been detained the same day by the Egyptian military.
