Return to Story IndexBODY LANGUAGE
BODY LANGUAGE IS A UNIVERSAL WAY TO COMMUNICATE. JOWAISIS says: "What does body language say about a person? Almost anything they want it to say, if they are well trained." SOME STUDIES INDICATE BODY LANGUAGE CAN BE UP TO 50 PERCENT OF WHAT WE SAY OR DO *NOT* SAY. DR. DENNIS JOWAISIS IS THE CHAIR OF THE PSYCHOLOGY DEPARTMENT AT OKLAHOMA CITY UNIVERSITY. JOWAISIS says: "The body language that's most expressive is when we are if you will out control, really angry, really upset, really emotional." SO WE WENT TO O-C-U'S STUDENT CENTER. WE WATCHED PEOPLE TO SEE IF WE COULD TELL WHAT THEIR BODY LANGUAGE SAID ABOUT THEIR PESONALITIES. AT FIRST WE OBSERVE TWO WOMEN TALKING. JOWAISIS says: "She's energetic right. She seems to be easily excitable." DID THE PROFESSOR READ HER LANGUAGE CORRECTLY? TORRES says: "That's me. I am very eccentric, fun, crazy uh like to have a lot of fun. Live life to the fullest, full speed all the time." WE ALSO NOTICED THIS COUPLE ENGAGED IN DEEP CONVERSATION. WHENEVER HE CHANGES HIS BODY LANGUAGE, SHE DOES THE SAME...MIMICKING HIS EVERY MOVE. SINGLETON says: "Because I was listening to his story trying to sympathize with him and I was probably trying to feed off his vibes." BODY LANGUAGE CAN ALSO SET THE TONE IN A JOB INTERVIEW.... TORRES says: "I would sit up straight, cross my legs at the ankle and probably have my hands on my thighs. I use my hands a lot even at interviews, even with my friends so that is something I do all the time." DATING... TORRES says: "I wouldn't want to date a guy with horrible posture. I would hope that you would carry yourself with a little pride. You can tell if somebody is confident with theirselves." AND WHETHER SOMEONE WANTS TO GET TO KNOW YOU BETTER. SWANIGAN says: "If it's somebody I never met before you know I normally not as comfortable I will sit a little bit straighter trying to make a good impression." BUT DR. JOWAISIS SAYS DON'T BE TOO QUICK TO JUDGE BY BODY LANGUAGE ALONE. JOWAISIS says: "We have to be careful that we don't buy into this idea that a single gesture always means the same thing in all situations to all people." BLAKE MASSAD LIKES TO STAND WITH HIS HANDS IN HIS POCKETS. HE SAYS IT'S A HABIT. BUT.... MASSAD says: "What do you think your body language says about you? Intimidation is a word maybe. Do you think you are intimdating? I don't know people have said that before." HE WANTS HIS BODY LANGUAGE TO SEND A DIFFERENT MESSAGE. MASSAD says: "That I am approachable. That I am congenial, kind, fun." DR. JOWAISIS SAYS BLAKE'S BODY LANGUAGE AND YOURS CAN SAY WHATEVER YOU WANT BY SIMPLY PRACTICING WHAT YOU WANT TO SAY. JOWAISIS says: "I think we learn. we can learn how to do body language. I want to have some control of my presentation but i don't want it to be so practiced that it comes across as artificial" IF YOU'RE TRYING TO MAKE A GOOD IMPRESSION FOR A JOB INTERVIEW, EXPERTS SAY SIT UP STRAIGHT AND LEAN SLIGHTLY FORWARD IN YOUR CHAIR. IT SHOWS YOU ARE INTERESTED IN WHAT YOUR POTENTIAL EMPLOYER IS SAYING. YOU SHOULD ALSO KEEP AN INTERESTED EXPRESSION ON YOUR FACE TO SHOW ENTHUSIASM. AND IF YOU WANT TO KNOW IF HE OR SHE IS INTERESTED IN YOU, CONTINUAL GLANCING AT SOMEONE SUGGESTS DESIRE FOR THAT PERSON.

Return to Story IndexNEW GITMO PRISON
A STATE PRISON IN ILLINOIS IS ONE OF THE FACILITIES BEING CONSIDERED. DETAINEES EQUAL DOLLARS. THAT'S WHAT MANY ILLINOIS LEADERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THE MOVE TO TRANSFER SUSPECTED TERRORISTS FROM GUANTANAMO BAY TO THIS FACILITY, IN THOMSON, ILLINOIS. Make no mistake about it, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity. ---BUTT-- We have a chance to bring more than 2 thousand good paying jobs with benefits to this region. THE 145 MILLION DOLLAR MAXIMUM SECURITY STATE PRISON IS LARGELY EMPTY IN THE TOWN WITH A POPULATION OF 600.. SOME 150-MILES WEST OF CHICAGO. FEDERAL OFFICIALS ARE GOING TO SCOUT OUT THE FACILITY TODAY. THEIR PROPOSAL WOULD MOVE FEWER THAN 100 GUANTANAMO DETAINEES TO THE SITE WHICH CAN HOLD 16 -HUNDRED INMATES. It's a great opportunity for our state. we've had it for 8 years and have not been able to use it...it is one of the very best super max prisons in the USA BUT THERE IS OPPOSITION, CONGRESSMAN DOUG MANZULLO WHO REPRESENTS THE AREA IS STAUNCHLY AGAINST THE IDEA. IN A STATEMENT, HE SAYS: "Our residents in Carroll County and throughout Northwestern Illinois desperately need jobs, but bringing the world's most dangerous terrorists to Northern Illinois would do more harm than good in the long run," --TRACK-- WHILE MANY THOMSON RESIDENTS SAY IT'S A GOOD WAY TO GENERATE JOBS, SOME ARE HESITANT ABOUT THE PLAN. Thinking high security people coming in, that's also scary thinking terrorists coming to our area. FEDERAL OFFICIALS ARE ALSO CONSIDERING FACILITIES IN COLORADO AND MONTANA.

DOCTORS HAVE FOUND THAT CRAVINGS FOR JUNK FOOD MAY BE AS STRONG AS AN ADDICTION TO HEROIN OR COCAINE. (walking to fridge) in the fridge, we've got some cheesecake... CARI BANKS HAS A SERIOUS WEAKNESS. 3.19.24 (opening freezer) and i think we still have ice cream. Cari 3.18.45 I could eat half a pack of oreos and milk and consider it nothing. AND SAYING NO TO THE CRAVINGS? FORGET ABOUT IT. Cari 3.22.06 if i wanted the food and it was available, i would eat it, pretty much without thinking. OBESITY RESEARCHERS BELIEVE CARI'S SWEET TOOTH COULD ACTUALLY BE MORE LIKE SUBSTANCE ABUSE. DR JOE MCCLERNON AT DUKE UNIVERSITY STUDIES THE BRAINS OF SMOKERS OR DRUG ADDICTS AND HIS STUDIES SHOW THAT FOR MANY OBESE PEOPLE JUNK FOOD CAN TRIGGER THE SAME RESPONSE. Dr. McClernon, 2.28.04 (pointing at brain scans) You can see activation // 2.28.31 in both cases in a region called the striatum. // it's the part of your brain that tells you whether something is something you wanna go after or something that you wanna avoid. but it's also the part of the brain that's involved in learning habits. IN A NEW STUDY, SCIENTISTS AT THE SCRIPPS RESEARCH INSTITUTE FOUND SIMILAR RESULTS IN RATS. PLEASURE CENTERS IN THE BRAINS OF THOSE FED HIGH-FAT, HIGH-CALORIE FOOD BECAME LESS RESPONSIVE OVER TIME A SIGNAL THAT THE RATS WERE BECOMING ADDICTED. ONCE HOOKED, NOT EVEN AN ELECTRIC SHOCK COULD STOP THEM FROM A JUNK FOOD FIX. Dr. Louis Aronne, 12.44.51 Your brain reacts almost identically to a cocaine addict looking at cocaine. // And the interesting thing is that someone who's obese has even more similarity to the cocaine addict looking at cocaine. Juju, 12.45.42 So somebody who is obese is literally addicted to junk food? Aronne, 12.45.47 In many ways they can be addicted to junk food. nats Cari getting in scanner (loud machine buzz as she slides in) (see pix of junk food on computer near scanner) FOR CARI, THE TRIGGER FOODS MOSTLY ARE HIGH FAT, AND HIGH CALORIE. Nats Dr. McClernon, 2.07.46: ok Cari, are you ready for the first scan? SHE'S BEEN TRYING TO FIGHT HER CRAVINGS FOR THREE MONTHS -- EATING A SPECIAL LOW FAT DIET AS PART OF A STUDY DR. MCCLERNON IS DOING WITH FUNDING FROM THE ATKINS FOUNDATION. Cari, 3.24.28 it was // a month into the diet that I could eat one slice of pizza and be ok with that one slice and not have to eat half the pizza. OBESITY EXPERTS BELIEVE TREATMENTS USED FOR ADDICTION RECOVERY MAY HOLD PROMISE IN FIGHTING OBESITY. McClernon, 1.17.28 we know that people // can learn new ways to live that are healthier. // 1. 17.00 part of the challenge right now is developing new techniques and new diets that help people learn those new ways of responding to food.

HERE'S WHAT "NEW MOON" STAR ROBERT PATTINSON IS SAYING ABOUT THE FILM. SOT-PATTINSON" I think it will exceed everyone's expectations of what, you know, the " Twilight" series is about and also what sequels are in general, I think, I hope. Maybe. That's a pretty broad statement." Robert Pattinson returns as the vampire, Edward, in the "Twilight" sequel, " New Moon." He's still in love with the mortal named Bella... But love may not be enough anymore. NATS: movie clip: "You just don't belong in my world, Bella." "I belong with you." "This is the last time you'll ever see me. Please just promise me you won 't do anything reckless." Edward disappears from Bella's life but he still seems to keep re-appearing by her side all through the movie. REPORTER" So you may not be on screen as much but, to me, you're every bit as part of the story. Do you feel that now that you've seen it?" SOT-PATTINSON" This character's kind of mythologized by other characters, even by Jacob in the movie, like, you know, it's always in Jacob's mind that Edward's presence is always just getting into everything. you know, he never quite disappears. And I mean, I like that." Jacob, a werewolf also in love with Bella, is the main focus of attention this time around. The film is also touted as having more action...and Pattinson is a part of that. SOT-PATTINSON" I think there's something about it--much more complex film in a lot of ways and I think, I really think it really doesn't shortchange people. I don't think it seems in any way like a sequel. I don't think it seems really like a franchise movie." NATS: movie clip: "Oh, paper cut." "Twilight" turned Pattinson into an instant star. But the stars in his life are the people who've been in his life long before all the craziness that comes with the "Twilight" territory. SOT-PATTINSON" They're amazing. There's never been a single person in my life who's ever sold any kind of story or anything so it's kind of great." "The Twilight Saga: New Moon" will be in theatres November 20th. This is George Pennacchio reporting for ABC News.
