  • 王聪也要嫁人了

               王聪也要嫁人了.真的好意外啊,因为她是我最想不到要结婚的人,因为她的感情太复杂,别人看着都累,甚至让人觉得不可思议,她都已经是伤痕累累了,但还是选择了嫁给那个折磨她的人,这算是幸福吗?!           她宁愿当爱情的奴隶,宁愿承受那份精疲力尽的感情,宁愿一辈子选择那份已经习惯了而没有激情的爱.甚至要和他相守到老.           她的状况让我对爱又迷茫了.不知道婚姻到底是什么?是顺理成章?是顺其自然?是水到渠成?还是真的难舍难分?昨晚和她聊天,我问她为什么还是选择嫁给他,她只是告诉我,就是想结婚了,不想折腾了.            简单的一句话,她就要和那个人国庆节结婚了,我还没有来得及祝福她,更不能参加她的婚礼.            也许他们十年的感情终于磨合期结束,开始羽化了.才选择了安稳的窝给彼此的心找一个家.             她的回答那么平静,没有兴奋,没有喜悦,没有幸福的感觉.当然她的人生路由她自己走.我也只能衷心的祝他们永远幸福快乐!!             为什么王聪结婚,我没有为她高兴的感觉,只是觉得心里很沉重.

  • Food Tastes Better With McDonalds Logo Say Kids

    This scares the hell out of me.http://health.msn.com/pregnancykids/kidshealth/articlepage.aspx?cp-documentid=100167396&gt1=10316 MONDAY, Aug. 6 (HealthDay News) -- Most 3- and 5-year-olds who taste-tested a variety of foods said they preferred the ones in the McDonald's wrapper -- even though the foods were exactly the same, a new study finds. The study suggests that, like adults, young children are highly influenced by branding, experts say."This study demonstrates simply and elegantly that advertising literally brainwashes young children into a baseless preference for certain food products," said Dr. David Katz, the director of the Prevention Research Center at Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, Conn."Children, it seems, literally do judge a food by its cover. And they prefer the cover they know," said Katz, who was not involved in the research.The study was led by Dr. Thomas Robinson, the director of the Center for Healthy Weight at Packard Children's Hospital and associate professor of pediatrics and of medicine at Stanford University School of Medicine, in Stanford, Calif. His team had 63 children, ages 3 and 5, sample five foods: chicken nuggets, a hamburger, french fries, baby carrots and milk. The chicken nuggets, hamburger and french fries were all from McDonald's; the carrots and milk were from a grocery store. Each sample was divided into two portions: one wrapped in a McDonald's wrapper or placed in a McDonald's bag and the other in a wrapper without the McDonald's logo.After taste-testing, the children more often said the chicken nuggets, fries, carrots and milk wrapped in the McDonald's logo tasted better, even though the foods were exactly the same."Kids don't just ask for food from McDonald's," Robinson said in a prepared statement."They actually believe that the chicken nugget they think is from McDonald's tastes better than an identical, unbranded nugget." Further research revealed that one-third of the children ate at McDonald's more than once a week, and more than three-quarters had McDonald's toys at home. In addition, the children in the study had an average of 2.4 televisions in their homes. More than half the kids had a TV in their bedrooms."We found that kids with more TVs in their homes and those who eat at McDonald's more frequently were even more likely to prefer the food in the McDonald's wrapper," Robinson said."This is a company that knows what they're doing. Nobody else spends as much to advertise their fast-food products to children." It is estimated that McDonald's spend more than $1 billion dollars per year on U.S. advertising."It's really an unfair marketplace out there for young children," Robinson said."It's very clear they cannot understand the persuasive nature of advertising."McDonald's responded by saying that it is dealing with the problem."This is an important subject, and McDonald's has been actively addressing it for quite some time," said McDonald's spokesman Walt Riker."In fact, McDonald's is only advertising Happy Meals with white meat McNuggets, fresh apple slices and low-fat milk, a right-sized meal of only 375 calories," he said."The fact is, parents make the decisions for their children, and our research confirms that we've earned their trust as a responsible marketer based on decades of delivering the safest food, the highest quality toys and the kind of choice and variety today's families are looking for," Riker said.OK, a three year old or five year old with a TV in their room? I say shoot their parents on sight. Same with the parents who let their kids eat McDonalds more than once a week (hell, I'd say once a month MAXIMUM). Why are we wondering about the obesity epidemic when statistics like this are right there? (Admittedly, 63 is a small sample size.) I don't think you can bad junk food advertising (look at the recent Shrek onslaught), but I think it can be toned down. A big round of applause to the supermarkets and places like Big W who actually have confectionary free checkouts - when I have kids, I don't care how long that line is, I'm going there. For those that have kids and have to deal with the advertising and promotion of junk food and other unhealthy things, how do you cope??
