STORY16. CHANGE OF HEART: ANNE RICE
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS (ABC NEWS): (OC) Finally tonight, the author Anne Rice has sold nearly 100 million books, making her one of the most popular writers of all time. But it's not her novels that people are buzzing about these days. It's this very stark, very public declaration. "I quit being a Christian" Rice wrote on Facebook. She then sat down with Dan Harris to explain.
DAN HARRIS (ABC NEWS): (VO) Recently, the woman who wrote such best selling novels as "Interview with a Vampire," when on Facebook to write something much shorter and much more incendiary.
(OC) You wrote on Facebook, today I quit being a Christian, I'm out. You go on to call Christians, as a group, quarrelsome, hostile, disputatious and deservedly infamous.
ANNE RICE ("OF LOVE AND EVIL" AUTHOR): I was saying, look, when you see the persecution of gay people by the Mormon Church or the Catholic Church, I'm not part of this. When you see the oppression of women, I'm not part of it.
DAN HARRIS: (VO) Anne Rice was raised Catholic, but became an atheist at age 18. In 1998, she says she experienced a conversion and rejoined the Catholic Church. But she says she wasn't prepared for how frustrated she would become by things like the priest sex abuse scandals, the Pope going to Africa and condemning condoms in the fight against AIDS, and the church's involvement in the fight against gay marriage in California.
ANNE RICE: The toxic anger built up, the confusion built up, and I thought, I have to get out of this. I want God to be the center of my life, and somehow, I'm in bed with the devil.
DAN HARRIS: (OC) That's a very strong word you use there. Devil. You're saying that there is evil operating in organized religion.
ANNE RICE: I felt like I was in bed with the devil.
DAN HARRIS: (VO) Part of her frustration, she admits, comes from the fact that her son Christopher is gay.
ANNE RICE: I mean, it causes great moral discomfort when your church is calling homosexuality gravely disordered, and when they are spending money, maybe money that you yourself contributed, to fight to support Prop 8, I mean, I can't emphasize how demoralizing that is to me.
DAN HARRIS: (VO) In a country where a growing number of people, now 17%, say they have no religion, this story has touched a nerve.
(OC) Is it fair to paint organized religion with such a broad brush?
ANNE RICE: I wanted to move away from all of it. I don't want to be in the dispute.
DAN HARRIS: (VO) To be clear, Rice says she is still a follower of Christ.
ANNE RICE: Every time I read the Bible, I will mark down different things.
DAN HARRIS: (OC) This is no small amount of notation here.
ANNE RICE: That's right, yeah.
DAN HARRIS: (VO) She says she will read her dog-eared Bible and pray every day, just by herself. Dan Harris, ABC News, Rancho Mirage, California.
STORY17. CHILDHOOD CLASSIC: HAPPY ANNIVERSARY
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: (OC) We end tonight with an anniversary. It was 50 years ago today that one of the most beloved children's books of all time first asked that unforgettable question.
NARRATOR (MALE): Do you like green eggs and ham?
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: (VO) Of course, you know the story, Sam I am, encouraging, cajoling, begging his unnamed put-upon friend to try just try green eggs and ham. Seen here in a 1973 cartoon.
NARRATOR (CARTOON): I do not like green eggs and ham.
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: (VO) The Seuss classic published in 1960, came from a bet between the author and his editor. Could Dr Seuss, using just 50 words, write an entertaining and intelligent children's book? In a word - yes. Seuss won the bet, $1 for each word. Since then, it has become one of the best-selling children's books of all time. Read by American presidents.
PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA (UNITED STATES): Would you like them here or there?
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: (VO) And Miss Americas.
MISS AMERICA (READING): I do not like them here or there.
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: (VO) Heisman winners...
HEISMAN WINNER (READING): I would not like them anywhere.
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: (VO) And Hall of Famers.
HALL OF FAMER (READING): I would not eat green eggs and ham, I do not like them.
CHILDREN (READING): Sam I am.
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: (VO) The book hit the zeitgeist with Jesse Jackson's famous recitation on "Saturday Night Live."
JESSE JACKSON ("SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE"): I will not eat them in the rain. I will not eat them on a train.
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: (VO) You can check out Food Network's website for green eggs and ham recipes. Or not. It's been turn into a kid's musical.
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: (VO) And a pop song.
(VO) At this year's Iowa State Fair, Sam and his curmudgeonly friend sit center stage carved out of butter. There's even an app for that.
RYAN OWENS (ABC NEWS): "Green Eggs and Ham", by Dr Seuss.
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: (VO) Seuss' genius insight was that kids would be educated if they were also entertained. He found the kids books in the 1950s boring. So, though the myriad of YouTube videos are amusing, the accolades and celebrity leaders endearing, what is most important is that children still learn to read by reading his books.
CHILD (MALE): I do so like green eggs and ham. Thank you, thank you, Sam I am.

STORY18. GROWING THREAT: EGG RECALL
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS (ABC NEWS): (OC) The salmonella outbreak we first reported on last night has now spread to ten states.
(VO) Leading to the report of more than 380 million eggs.
(OC) Federal health officials say that 2,000 people have already been affected from bad eggs and thousands more are likely to get sick. In a moment we'll talk to Dr Richard Besser, but first, David Wright has the first report from victims of the outbreak.
DAVID WRIGHT (ABC NEWS): (VO) Already, Wright County Egg is facing lawsuits over the outbreak. The first one brought by Tanja Dzinovic of Kenosha, Wisconsin, who got salmonella from a Cobb salad she ate at this restaurant last July.
TANJA DZINOVIC (SALMONELLA VICTIM): Cold, hot, a fever, just you name, I had it, I felt like I had everything.
DAVID WRIGHT: (VO) And the number of people getting ill...
MATTHEW NEWELL (SALMONELLA VICTIM): My fever was bad. I lost almost 25 pounds.
DAVID WRIGHT: (VO) ...is rising fast.
LACY CLAYTON (SALMONELLA VICTIM): I woke up in the middle of the night really sick to my stomach, horrible stomach pains.
DAVID WRIGHT: (VO) Today, the CDC said nearly 2,000 illnesses across the country may be linked to this outbreak. Even after three of its farms were flagged for salmonella, Wright County Egg continued shipping eggs from its other farms in Galt, Iowa. Only last night were they added to the recall. 100 million more eggs.
(OC) Thousands of them packages and shipped after the initial recall. At first, the recall was limited to eggs stamped at the end here with 1026, 1413, or 1946. Indicating the plants where the outbreak started. But as of today, the FDA has added the two additional plants.
(VO) Consumers should also not eat eggs stamped 1720, 1942, 1951, 1686, or 1091.
ERIK OLSON (PEW HEALTH GROUP): Why did it take so long before we discovered that there was this widespread contamination problem?
DAVID WRIGHT: (VO) Industry watchdogs say the government has been slow to act on food safety. And that has put Americans at risk. David Wright, ABC News, Los Angeles.
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: (OC) And Dr Richard Besser is here again tonight. And I know you've been on the phone with CDC investigators all day. Their concern has not gone down.
DOCTOR RICHARD BESSER (ABC NEWS): (OC) That's right. I spoke with the head of the investigation for CDC. He's very concerned. He expects as more states look, they're going to find cases. And for every case that is found, they estimate that there are an additional 30 cases that haven’t been detected.
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: (OC) And you were telling me earlier, this is also a sign they believe that government and industry need to find a new way to handle eggs.
DOCTOR RICHARD BESSER: (OC) Yeah, the Food and Drug Administration today, I spoke with them and they had never inspected egg farmers before because there were no regulation for the producers.
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: (OC) Never?
DOCTOR RICHARD BESSER: (VO) Never, unless there was an outbreak. Now that they - there are standards for industry, they're beginning routine investigation of the - inspections of the large egg producers.
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: (OC) And finally, for everyone at home, you said it last night, check those cartons.
DOCTOR RICHARD BESSER: (OC) Right. If you checked them yesterday, you got to check them again.
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: (OC) Okay, Dr Richard Besser, thanks very much.

STORY19. LOVE TEST: THE LOOK OF LOVE
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS (ABC NEWS): (OC) Finally tonight, putting love to the test. You can say you love someone with all your heart and believe it with all your soul, but could a brain scan tell the real story? Cynthia McFadden plumbs the mystery of love with the help of one brave and adventurous couple.
CYNTHIA MCFADDEN (ABC NEWS): (VO) Is it possible to prove if you're really in love? According to anthropologist Dr Helen Fisher, the answer is yes.
DOCTOR HELEN FISHER (BIOLOGICAL ANTHROPOLOGIST): I decided that if I looked into the brain, I could perhaps find out what's going on when people are feeling that intense rush of romantic love.
CYNTHIA MCFADDEN: (VO) Alana and Mike Clear felt euphorically in love at their 2008 wedding but were alarmed to hear that 50% of marriages end in divorce. Would theirs be one of them?
MIKE CLEAR (TESTING LOVE): I kind of wanted to find out at the beginning of our adventure together whether or not we were right for each other.
CYNTHIA MCFADDEN: (VO) Mike proposed a radical idea, they would put their young love under an extreme test to see if it would survive.
ALANA CLEAR (TESTING LOVE): Okay. We're going to quit our jobs.
CYNTHIA MCFADDEN: (VO) They set out on a motorcycle trip down the longest highway in the world, eight and a half months, side by side. Dr Fisher would test them both before and after the trip. Dr Fisher says she has had people say they were in love, only to have their brains say otherwise. Would Mike and Alana's brains betray them? Take a look at their brains before the trip. The illuminated area here in the romantic love center is glowing like a Christmas tree. And after the trip, Alana's still is. But while Mike's scans show a deep attachment to his wife, romantic love for her has virtually disappeared. Might all this science ruin the mystery of love?
MIKE CLEAR: Yeah, it's a bit like the Groucho Marx quote on comedy that comedy is like a frog, if you dissect it, it dies.
CYNTHIA MCFADDEN: (VO) Mike and Alana say they are still very much in love, test or no test, even if their brains disagree with their hearts, at least for now. Cynthia McFadden, ABC News, New York.

STORY20. WORLD NEWS INVESTIGATES: COSTLY LESSONS
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS (ABC NEWS): (OC) Now an ABC News investigation into how those popular for-profit colleges pitch their programs to new students. Enrollment in these schools has jumped to nearly 2 million in recent years, but a new report says recruiters at many of these colleges misleading students about what their degrees may be worth in the job market. "20/20" anchor Chris Cuomo's hidden cameras caught one recruiter in the act.
CHRIS CUOMO (ABC NEWS): (VO) This is an undercover ABC News producer posing as a perspective student...
UNDERCOVER INVESTIGATOR (ABC NEWS): (OC) I'm looking for Tanya.
CHRIS CUOMO: (VO) ...at the country's largest for-profit college.
UNDERCOVER INVESTIGATOR: (OC) Hey, how are you?
CHRIS CUOMO: (VO) He said he wants to be a teacher. The recruiter says if he gets a degree and does some student teaching, he'll be set.
UNDERCOVER INVESTIGATOR: (OC) I can go to the University of Phoenix, do my bachelors degree and 100 percent for sure, I can go back to either Texas or New York and I can sit for those exams...
RECRUITER (UNIVERSITY OF PHOENIX): Right.
UNDERCOVER INVESTIGATOR: (OC) And once I finish those exams...
RECRUITER (UNIVERSITY OF PHOENIX): Then you can become a teacher.
UNDERCOVER INVESTIGATOR: (OC) I can teach.
RECRUITER (UNIVERSITY OF PHOENIX): Yes, that is true.
CHRIS CUOMO: (VO) But it's not true. Having that degree alone, even if you pass the teaching tests won't guarantee that he can teach in those states.
RECRUITER (COLLEGE): I'm not supposed to discuss salaries...
CHRIS CUOMO: (VO) And recently, the Government Accountability Office sent undercover investigators to 15 for-profit schools across the country and found that all of them were misleading students.
RECRUITER (COLLEGE): We have some students who are making maybe $600, $700, $800, maybe $1,000 a day.
SENATOR TOM HARKIN (DEM) (CHAIRMAN OF HEALTH): I think maybe the whole orchard is contaminated, like I said, that there's a systemic problem here with the system itself that needs to be addressed.
CHRIS CUOMO: (VO) But misleading students isn't the worst of it, says Steve Eisman, a renowned hedge fund investor who predicted the last big mortgage crisis.
STEVE EISMAN (HEDGE FUND MANAGER): These companies are marketing machines masquerading as universities.
CHRIS CUOMO: (VO) At a conference in New York, Eisman said the real problem is that students who get over $22 billion in federal aid from the government to attend these schools are defaulting on their student loans at an alarming rate. In part that's because the schools seem to recruit practically anyone, like Benson Rollins who lives in a homeless shelter in Cleveland, Ohio, where last year he met two recruiters from the University of Phoenix, who pitched him and other homeless men on an education which would have put them in debt about $15,000. But Benson refused.
BENSON ROLLINS (HOMELESS MAN): It seems like it's just too much all about money instead of helping someone get an education.
HARRIS MILLER (PRESIDENT OF CAREER COLLEGE ASSOCIATION): It never was acceptable. Those schools who did it were wrong.
CHRIS CUOMO: (VO) Lobbyist Harris Miller says even though these schools serve an important role by providing higher education to students who would not ordinarily get a degree, he admits the recruiting practices at many for-profit schools need to be changed.
HARRIS MILLER: We should not have a situation where that many bad occurrences are being visible.
CHRIS CUOMO: (OC) You got caught?
HARRIS MILLER: No, there are always problems. There are problems in traditional schools too.
CHRIS CUOMO: (OC) 15 for 15. The GAO...
HARRIS MILLER: That's right.
CHRIS CUOMO: (OC) You get the government money. Why don't you give some back to these people who have been stuck after your improper solicitations?
HARRIS MILLER: It's something we're going look at.
CHRIS CUOMO: (OC) Look at what? You don't have anything on that. What do you have in place to pay the people who were...
HARRIS MILLER: Nothing.
CHRIS CUOMO: (VO) And whatever the industry's plans are for changes in the future, that doesn't solve the problems now. Chris Cuomo, ABC News, New York.
STORY21. KID'S BEST FRIEND: LEARNING TO READ
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS (ABC NEWS): (OC) Finally tonight, a simple approach to solving a problem that frustrates millions of parents. A child who just can't get into reading. So many different things have been tried. Here's one that shows promise. It involves just the child, and, believe it or not, a dog. New studies show that it can be remarkably effective. Ron Claiborne found an excellent example.
RON CLAIBORNE (ABC NEWS)
(VO) On a Saturday afternoon at the library in Norwalk, Connecticut, 8-year-old Kevonate Haye met Brasil, a 4-year-old whippet. Kevonate chose "Henry and Mudge," a children's book about a boy and a dog, sat down on the floor and began to read to Brasil.
KEVONATE HAYE (SECOND GRADER): White baby bunny, she had soft ears.
RON CLAIBORNE: (VO) Kevonate is a second grader who's insecure about his struggles with reading.
KEVONATE HAYE: Mudge didn’t.
RON CLAIBORNE: (VO) But after his short time with Brasil, he felt he had made a friend.
KEVONATE HAYE: I love him a lot.
STUDENT (LIBRARY): This one?
RON CLAIBORNE: (VO) The concept is simple.
STUDENT (LIBRARY): Monster or Mr Pudding.
RON CLAIBORNE: (VO) A dog is nonjudgmental and comforting, so it takes the pressure off a child.
LINDA RICARD (READS TO DOGS): If I made a mistake, there's no one around me to laugh.
FRANCIE ALEXANDER (CHIEF ACADEMIC OFFICER AT SCHOLASTIC): And if you make a mistake, it can feel risky or uncomfortable. But if you're practicing with a dog, you don't mind making the mistake.
RON CLAIBORNE: (VO) A University of California-Davis study confirms it.
(VO) Researchers found that children who read to dogs in a ten-week program were more enthusiastic, engaged, and confident. Their reading skills increased by 12%. The children who did not read to dogs showed no improvement at all. This was Kevonate when he started.
KEVONATE HAYE: Henry short.
RON CLAIBORNE: (VO) And six weeks later.
KEVONATE HAYE: The bird said to Henry's mother, Henry shook his head.
When you read to a dog, it makes you relax. You don't have to worry about anybody staring at you. It's just you and the dog.
RON CLAIBORNE: (VO) And on his latest reading test, Kevonate did show improvement.
KEVONATE HAYE: Every day, no one...
RON CLAIBORNE: (VO) Thanks to a friend who was willing to listen.
KEVONATE HAYE: Okay, said Henry.
RON CLAIBORNE: (VO) Ron Claiborne, ABC News, Norwalk, Connecticut.
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: (OC) What an ingenious idea. We're gonna have to try that one at home.
STORY22. BEDBUG BATTLE: INVASION
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS (ABC NEWS): (OC) Federal and state officials met in Ohio today to deal with a pesky plague that's been spreading all summer all across the country. Bedbugs are back and forcing government officials and homeowners to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to kill the pests. Here's Linsey Davis.
LINSEY DAVIS (ABC NEWS): (OC) Overnight, bedbugs have become so much of a concern several states are calling on the big guns for help.
(VO) At least five states have pleading for money to get rid of these pesky blood suckers. Representatives and experts from a long list of government agencies, including the Department of Defense, met in Columbus, Ohio today to talk bedbugs.
CAMILLE JONES (ASSISTANT HEALTH COMMISSIONER FOR CINCINNATI HEALTH DEPT): Hopefully we're going to see more resources devoted to various things such as, you know, the educational things, resources perhaps to help people who can't pay for treatment.
LINSEY DAVIS: (VO) Ohio was so desperate they petitioned the government to allow in-home use of a pesticide banned out of concern for its effects on kids. That request was denied.
JEFFREY WHITE (RESEARCH ENTOMOLOGIST AT BED BUG CENTRAL): This is a resurgence all across the board at this point, and so it's a very serious problem.
LINSEY DAVIS: (VO) In Lexington, Kentucky, bedbugs forced people out of their apartments. In Fort Worth, Texas, the city housing authority spent half million dollars to rid this apartment building of the pests. It didn't work. In Seattle, bedbug calls to exterminators have spiked.
(OC) Contrary to their name, bedbugs aren't limited to beds. This Times Square movie theater is back open after shutting its doors Tuesday night to deal with the paranoia and panic-inducing parasite.
(VO) Bedbugs tend to be nocturnal. They like to hide in cracks and crevasses, often in and around mattresses. They're visible to the eye. They bite humans, and it's painful. The retro pests were eradicated from the US around the end of World War II. But in the last decade, they've been making a comeback.
JEFFREY WHITE: It has to do with the pest sides we use today not being as effective as they once were, say in the 50s, 60s and 70s. Their immunity makes them more difficult to treat.
LINSEY DAVIS: (VO) A painful pest that has many people this summer on edge. Linsey Davis, ABC News, New York.
STORY23. KENTUCKY FRIED FIGHT: A BONE TO PICK
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS (ABC NEWS): (OC) And now to the latest battle in the food wars. KFC fried up a whole mess of chicken today to celebrate the 70th anniversary of its iconic brand. Just as the company is under fire from its own franchisees, from running away from the finger licking recipe that gave Kentucky Fried Chicken its name and made it a giant. Yunji de Nies has the story.
YUNJI DE NIES (ABC NEWS): (VO) The colonel's original recipe has never changed.
COLONEL SANDERS (KENTUCKY FRIED CHICKEN): I don't know how we could improve it more.
YUNJI DE NIES: (VO) But KFC's menu has, from finger licking to fit.
SPOKESPERSON (COMMERCIAL): Because fresh tastes better.
YUNJI DE NIES: (VO) That recent push to appear more healthy has created a split in the KFC family. Just ask franchise owner William Eubanks.
WILLIAM EUBANKS (KFC FRANCHISEE): We are fried chicken. We shouldn't be embarrassed about that.
YUNJI DE NIES: (VO) Eubanks runs 29 KFCs. He and other franchisees are angry with the corporate company, Yum Brands, for confusing customers, with recent ads like this.
SPOKESPERSON: Kentucky grilled chicken.
Kentucky grilled chicken.
WILLIAM EUBANKS: To only advertise grilled chicken in a fried chicken brand, I'm sure the colonel wouldn’t be happy with that.
YUNJI DE NIES: (VO) While sales at other leading chicken chains grew last year, KFC's fell 6%. Some franchise owners are now suing to change KFC's strategy. But Yum Brands say they're just giving customers what they want.
ROGER EATON (PRESIDENT AND CHIEF CONCEPT OFFICER AT KFC): What I think, what the franchisees think is interesting, but what really, really matters is what the customers think.
YUNJI DE NIES: (OC) But sales are down.
ROGER EATON: Not everything is done in one day.
YUNJI DE NIES: (VO) For years, food cops like Michael Jacobson have attacked artery-clogging fast food menus.
(OC) We talked to franchise owners who say they're actually throwing away grilled chicken because nobody is buying it. Can this actually work?
MICHAEL JACOBSON (FOOD COP): It may not work at KFC.
YUNJI DE NIES: (VO) KFC set a world record today, frying 2,000 pounds of chicken. None of it grilled, all of it eaten. Yunji de Nies, ABC News, Washington.
STORY24. EAT, PRAY, SPEND: MOVIE TIE IN
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS (ABC NEWS): (OC) "Eat, Pray, Love" hit the multiplex over the weekend, accompanied by a product placement blitz, hawking furniture, jewelry and all kinds of other things. As you probably know, the movie catalogs one woman's globetrotting quest for spirituality and fulfillment. The merchandising suggests a more material path, but Andrew Canning Reports that money buys happiness only when spent wisely.
ANDREA CANNING (ABC NEWS): (VO) "Eat, Pray, Love" and spend? The hit movie and book about a worldwide quest for spiritual enlightenment has become an unlikely vehicle for a massive merchandising campaign. There are over 400 products for sale tied into the "Eat, Pray, Love" brand, from espresso machines to charm necklaces. The Home Shopping Network even ran 72 hours straight of advertising.
HOST (HOME SHOPPING NETWORK): It's very modern, it's very today.
ELIZABETH GILBERT (AUTHOR OF "EAT PRAY LOVE"): Most people don't have the resources to be able to go travel around the world for an entire year. Maybe buying a candle that reminds them of that book and that story is as close as they can get to that.
ANDREA CANNING: (VO) Not surprisingly, a backlash is brewing in the blogosphere among diehard fans, with headlines like, "a tsunami of merchandise that suggests we find inner peace through purchasing." Still, it's a market that's hard to resist.
(OC) At this high end chain of beauty stores called Fresh, they spent over a year developing products in line with the movie, everything from perfumes to candles, promising a journey for the senses. But can you really shop your way to happiness?
(VO) In fact, recent studies on consumption find that material objects like a new pair of shoes actually won't bring you much long-term happiness. People are found to be happiest when they spend money on experiences. So perhaps your money is best spent on the new "Eat, Pray, Love" vacation package. Andrea Canning, ABC News, New York.
