  CBS News  Two-thirds of Americans are obese or  stanley mug overweight. A new book suggests food companies manipulate their products.The goal, Michael Moss  book  Salt Sugar Fat:  How the Food Giants Hooked Us  claims, is to make us buy and eat more.

Obesity has increased since then. Again, I think it s incumbent upon the food industry to realize that people care what they re putting in their mouths.

They re not ju stanley cup st getting us to like their product, they re also getting us to eat more and more and that s why reporting this book for me was like being inside a detective story.         He added:  Take salt.

 What was once Hurricane Dennis is now just a tropical depression, dumping loads of rain, after hitting the storm-weary Florida Panhandle and Alabama coast on Sunday with less force than forecasters feared and sparing the region the widespread destruction caused by Ivan last September. It is now over the northern parts of Alabama, and it is not going to be moving too much over the next couple days, and that s not good news,  says CBS News Meteorologist George Cullen.  We won t see too much wind damage now, as the winds are dropping down considerably, but the rain is going to be a huge issue. Floodwater inundated a fishing village and miles of a Panhandle coastal highway, and more than 500,000 customers in three states were left without power, some perhaps for at least thre stanley cup usa e weeks. But CBS News Correspondent Jim Acosta reports residents of the florida panhandle are waking up to damage, but not a disaster. From most accounts, Dennis could have been much worse.

 What if you have a fact that is a 100% li stanley cup e   Wha stanley thermosflasche t if everyone knows   Don ;t despair.  There are ways to make people act like they believe lies, even if they are explicitly told what the lies are.     To accomplish this nefarious act, all we really have to do is make them feel rushed and overburdened. Psychology researchers asked a group of people to look over summaries of crimes.  The summaries contained false statements, but the statements were clearly marked in red.  Sometimes the false statements exacerbated the severity of the crime, like the victim was an orphan wandering alone through snow, or the perpetrator used his stolen boots to kick a puppy.  Other times, the statements provided extenuating circumstances: The perpetrator only stole the car to drive his laboring wife to the hospital; the victim was hit in the face, but only after yelling abuse at a bus full of nuns. When the subjects had finished reading the reports, they were asked to give the criminals what they thought were appropriate sentences.  Naturally, they discounted the false statements, but another group did not.  The other group of subjects were given the same summaries to read, but were asked to read the summaries while searching for certain digits.  Given two tasks to do at once, the su stanley cup bjects were swayed by the lies.  If the lies were exculpatory, the criminal got a lesser sentence.  If the lies exacerbated the crime, the criminal got a longer sentence.
