We've rounded up the five things you need to know as you start your work week: a setback for a Canadian journalist jailed in Egypt; Angela Merkel is due to meet Stephen Harper, a journey to Space is stopped at the last minute, end to austerity in Greece, and all the winners and highlights from last night’s Grammy Awards. And finally, we've got a “did you know” item on a new treatment for wrinkles to share around the water cooler.

1. Setback for Fahmy: The family of Mohamed Fahmy is calling news of his retrial next week their “worst nightmare.” Although it seemed like the jailed Canadian journalist was set to be released last week after more than a year languishing in a Cairo prison, Fahmy is now set to appear back in Egyptian court Feb. 12.

2. Merkel to meet Harper: German Chancellor Angela Merkel is expected to have a “tete-a-tete” meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper Monday in Ottawa to discuss the crisis in Ukraine. Merkel will be meeting with U.S. President Barack Obama before travelling to Canada’s capital in the evening.

3. SpaceX launch scrubbed: Less than three minutes before the scheduled blast-off, SpaceX scrubbed the launch of a deep-space observatory Sunday evening in Florida. Citing problems with a rocket-tracking system, the company says it will be attempting the take-off again as early as Monday.

4. End to austerity: Greece’s new prime minister has set himself on collision course with the country’s debtors after proclaiming an end to “five years of bailout barbarity”. He plans on renegotiating the country’s bailout deal which is up at the end of February.

5. Music’s biggest night: British crooner Sam Smith and rocker Beck walked away with music’s top honours Sunday evening at the 57th annual Grammy Awards show in Los Angeles. Missed the red carpet show? We’ve got you covered.

And one more thing…

Did you know? The rise of the wrinkle-fighting snails: snail facials are beginning to take root in parts of Thailand, China and Japan, as a way of smoothing out clients' complexions.

Dermatologists claim that the fluid excreted from snails when they're under stress contain nutrients and anti-oxidants, but there's no significant scientific research yet showing how the fluid might work on the skin.

But before you wholly dismiss the idea as a strange new fad, please note: concoctions made from snail mucus are said to date back to ancient Greece.
