THE AIM IS TO CUT THE NEARLY 10,000 DEATHS EVERY YEAR RELATED TO ALCOHOL IMPAIRED DRIVING. LOCAL POLICE DEPARTMENTS SAY THE MAIN THING, IS TO JUST KNOW YOUR LIMIT. "Jsut know your limits. If you feel that you're impaired a little bit, you know if you get up and 'Ohh, a little dizzy there but I think I'll be alright,"'..No if you're a little dizzy getting up don't get behind the wheel of a car."

Return to Story IndexWHO HIT THE POWERBALL JACKPOT?
BUT THE MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR QUESTION STILL REMAINS... WHO IS THE WINNER? CRISTINA MUTCHLER HAS THE STORY. "Match this number and you're always a winner. Tonight it is, 11." AT LEAST ONE PERSON WOKE UP SUNDAY AN INSTANT MULTI-MILLIONAIRE. "My brother called me about 7:00 this morning from North Carolina. He said, 'Please tell me it was you.'" AND THE WINNER BOUGHT THE LUCKY POWERBALL TICKET HERE. A PUBLIX SUPERMARKET IN ZEPHYRHILLS, FLORIDA. "I bought my ticket here, but I didn't win. (You didn't win?) No. (You know anybody that did win?) No, I'm waiting, though." MANY FOLKS, LOTTO PLAYERS AND ABSTAINERS ALIKE, ARE WAITING TO FIND OUT WHO WON THE NEARLY 600 MILLION DOLLAR JACKPOT -- THE LARGEST IN POWERBALL HISTORY, WITH AN IMMEDIATE CASH PAYOUT VALUE IN EXCESS OF 375 MILLION. FLORIDA LOTTERY OFFICIALS SAY THE WINNER, OR WINNERS, SHOULD TAKE THEIR TIME BEFORE CLAIMING THE PRIZE. "This is a lot of money. It's clearly life-changing. So they have 60 days to come forward. We would urge them to seek legal and financial advice before they, before they claim all that money." THE POWERBALL GAME IS PLAYED IN 43 STATES, AND EACH TICKET COSTS 2 DOLLARS. YOUR ODDS OF WINNING... ONE IN MORE THAN 175 MILLION. "Well, you know, the odds are so much against it. I mean... Well, maybe not. (laughs)" BUT EVEN THOSE WHO WEREN'T SO LUCKY THIS TIME AROUND, ARE EXCITED FOR WHOEVER DID WIN IT BIG. "I'm thrilled for whoever did it. And I hope that they're wise, and they're generous, and they live a good life." I'M CRISTINA MUTCHLER REPORTING. THE WINNER WON'T REMAIN ANONYMOUS FOR LONG. SINCE THE FLORIDA LOTTERY IS A STATE AGENCY, THE WINNER'S NAME WILL BECOME PUBLIC RECORD. BUT THE WINNER, OR WINNERS, CAN CHOOSE NOT TO DO A PRESS CONFERENCE OR PUBLIC APPEARANCE - GIVING THEM AT LEAST A LITTLE CHANCE FOR PRIVACY.

Return to Story IndexHIDDEN SUGARS
AS AMBER WATSON FINDS OUT . SUGAR CAN SHOWS UP... WHERE YOU LEAST EXPECT IT. TAKE SOT AMBER WATSON, REPORTING "THE AMERICAN HEART ASSOCIATION SAYS WOMEN SHOULD ONLY HAVE ABOUT 6 TEASPOONS OF SUGAR A DAY.....MEN CAN HAVE ABOUT 9 TEASPOONS OF ADDED SUGAR. BUT THROUGHOUT THE DAY WE'RE COMSUMING MUCH MORE THAN THAT. TRACK 1 WE TALKED TO A FEW SHOPPERS AT DOROTHY LANE TO SEE IF THEY HAD ANY IDEA HOW MUCH SUGAR THEY EAT IN A DAY. 1:17:33 "Oh I don't know maybe 14" 1:09:56 "um...zero to one." 1:00:26 "I don't use a great deal in my coffee or anything like that I couldn't tell you the exact number." 1:00:31 TRACK 2 THAT'S PART OF THE PROBLEM -- EVEN IF YOU ARE COUNTING EACH TEASPOON OF SUGAR ADDED TO YOUR COFFEE OR TEA. THERE'S MORE HIDDEN IN FOODS YOU WOULDN'T SUSPECT. LIKE THIS SPAGHETTI SAUCE, WHICH HAS 11 GRAMS OF SUGAR A SERVING THAT'S ABOUT 3 TEASPOONS. BREAD IS ANOTHER CULPRIT - THIS SHOPPER WAS SHOCKED WHEN READING THE LABEL. TRACK 3 HIGH AMOUNTS OF SUGAR IS ALSO MAKING ITS WAY INTO BABY FOOD. I SPOKE TO DIETIAN RICH COHEN WITH KETTERING HEALTH WHO SAYS PARENTS SHOULD LIMIT THE AMOUNT OF FRUIT THE BABY GETS. TRACK 4 SUGAR NOT ONLY CAUSES DIABETES, OBESITY AND KIDNEY DISEASE, BUT IT ALSO HAS BEEN LINKED TO DEPRESSION AND FATIGUE. SUGAR HAS BEEN CALLED A POISON BECAUSE TOO WILL YOU - AND IT'S HIGHLY ADDICTIVE. "1:07:48 That person who has the sugar tries to find the sensation elsewhere and ends up adding more sugar to his or her food. 11:07:54 TRACK 5 COHEN EXPLAINS WHAT WORDS SHOPPERS NEED TO LOOK OUT FOR WHEN READING LABELS. 1:04:50 "Sugars end in ose "ose" so if you see something that has the ose ending it's a sugar -- and it's in many foods.." 1;05:00 TRACK 6 THAT INCLUDES SUCROSE, HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP, BUT ALSO WATCH OUT FOR CORN SYRUP AND FRUIT JUICE CONCENTRATES. JANICE PARKER SAYS SHE AVOIDS FOOD THAT LIST HIGH -FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP IN THE INGREDIENTS -- BUT EVEN THAT CAN BE A TRAP. WE FOUND THAT OUT WHILE COMPARING KETCHUP BOTTLES IN HER SHOPPING BASKET. TAKE SOT SUPER!! JANICE PARKER, SHOPPER 1:19:09 "I did get the no high fructose corn syrup ketchup." 19:14 BUTTED SOT :19:16 "How much sugar does that have? Four grams." 1:19:22 BUTTED SOT 1:19:54 "Here's the regular ketchup and it has four grams of sugar...laughing I'm not saving much." 1:19:59 BUTTED SOT 01:20:11 "Even though it says no high fructose corn syrup doesn't mean it's any better for you." 1:20:19 TAKE SOT AMBER WATSON, REPORTING SO BOTTOM LINE, YOU WANT TO PAY ATTENTION TO FOOD LABELS TO SEE HOW MUCH SUGAR IS ADDED. HERE'S ONE TIP - THE MORE PROCESSED THE MORE SUGAR. REPORTING IN DAYTON AMBER WATSON FOX 45 NEWS.
