For example, '['Represent this text to find its title about the same news but with slightly less depth', 'The numbers are in, and there\'s a clear consensus on who lost this week\'s Republican presidential debate, and in turn, who was this week\'s biggest political flop: "The Media." Facebook says their top social moment of the debate was when Texas senator and presidential contender Ted Cruz criticized CNBC debate moderators and the questions they asked during the debate. Twitter also says that was the top moment on their network, as well the second when Florida senator Marco Rubio declared, "Democrats have their own SuperPAC, it\'s called the mainstream media." Media coverage of its own failings was just as critical. We\'ve got a roundup here in case you need to catch up. But, what exactly IS "the media"? Who are we talking about when we say this? And what do we mean? NPR reached out to Kathleen Hall Jamieson, Director of the Annenberg Public Policy Center at the University of Pennsylvania. She says Americans have been pretty down on "the media" for a while, but that, right now, it\'s really bad. "Media credibility historically is down from its high points in the past," she says, "but there is on the conservative end of the political spectrum, an ongoing, more than two-decade long critique, that argues that what we would call the mainstream, or legacy media are biased against conservatives, and employ a double standard, treating conservatives different than liberals in a way that advantages liberals." And for Jamieson, this debate only served to exacerbate those frustrations. "When you open a debate by asking about candidate weaknesses (moderators opened this debate by asking each candidate what their greatest weakness was), in a debate in which the the candidates really are not well known yet, first you\'re asking a question no competent candidate is actually going to honestly answer," she says. "So, it\'s largely a waste of time, to find out how they\'re going to dodge the question." For Jamieson, part of why "The Media" is held in such low regard, compared to times past, is because the media, right now, is very different than what it was a few decades ago. "We have a changed media culture," Jamieson says. "When people talk about trust in media across time, they\'re actually measuring something that\'s very different. If you look at the 1960s and 1970s for example, you had three possibly four [if you count PBS], major media outlets for broadcast news. "Now we\'ve seen ... the rise in online content, and the proliferation of media channels, with the advent both of cable, and then of many forms of online dissemination. And so when people now ask the question, \'do you trust, or how high is the credibility of media,?\' They\'re fundamentally answering a different question than they were in the past. "And there\'s some confusion on the part of the public about who is a journalist at all," Jamieson continued. It all works to create a perfect storm: A debate with some awkward questions, a public already primed to distrust journalists and a social media landscape primed to jump on the multiple awkward moments that occurred during that debate. And when what you\'re critiquing is actually up for debate as well, it allows everyone to critique whatever they want. "When you ask about the media, often I think what you\'re actually hearing people say — particularly people who find most of their news in ideologically compatible outlets — I think what they\'re actually saying is, \'what I mean is, the media I don\'t pay attention to,\'" Jamieson said. Online, this critique of the media, led to a backlash, from the media itself. Some journalists even declared war: And others pointed out that the battle had gone international. But, Jamieson says, even if "The Media" is this week\'s loser, it\'s not alone. "There\'s been a decline in all of the other institutions too, including recently, the Supreme Court," she says. "Part of this tendency may be an increased distrust in everything that\'s institutionalized." But for what it\'s worth, she says it\'s not all bad. "All of journalism isn\'t broken; most of the debate the other night wasn\'t broken — but a part of it was." But that was the part that the Internet just couldn\'t let go. And Republicans haven\'t let it go, either. The Republican National Committee announced Sunday that it will suspend a debate partnership with NBC News, citing "inaccurate or downright offensive" questions during Wednesday night\'s CNBC debate.']' should be close to '['Represent the headline to find a news subtitle on NPR with more details!', "#MemeOfTheWeek: 'The Media'"]'

Question: The Hottest Thing To Smuggle Out Of Hong Kong: Baby Formula

represent this subtitle to find a title that might be right above it on npr

In the last two months, authorities in Hong Kong have arrested more than 800 people for trying to smuggle powdered baby formula out of the country. As Quartz points out, that's more people than Hong Kong arrested for smuggling "dangerous drugs" in all of 2012. This is the latest wrinkle in a story we reported on last week: Many Chinese parents are eager to buy baby formula from outside mainland China, because they worry that formula sold within the country may be unsafe. One guy we talked to in our story goes to Hong Kong every few weeks to buy formula and other supplies for his baby, rather than buy identical products at local stores on the mainland. Demand from parents like him caused formula shortages in Hong Kong. Earlier this year, local authorities imposed a new rule that said people leaving Hong Kong could only take two cans of formula with them. And, as the official release makes clear, the new rule has real teeth:  Any person who contravenes the relevant provision shall be guilty of an offence and liable on conviction to a fine of $500,000 and to imprisonment for two years.

For instance, <<['represent the subtitle to find a news title on npr with less details', 'As students return to school in Virginia, there\'s something new in their curriculum. Virginia is the first state to require public schools to teach Internet safety.  The mandate is in response to concerns about sex offenders and other adults preying on young people they\'ve met through social-networking Web sites such as MySpace. It\'s one of several steps states are taking to try to protect children and teenagers online.  George Washington High School in Danville, Va., is one of the largest schools in southern Virginia. But there\'s one thing almost all of its 1,800 students have in common — MySpace pages. Gene Fishel, an assistant Virginia attorney general, came to the school auditorium to give a lesson about Internet safety — especially on social-networking sites such as MySpace, Facebook, and Xanga that teenagers often use to communicate, and criminals sometimes use to prowl for victims.  \'A Breeding Ground\' "MySpace is a breeding ground for these sexual predators," Fishel says, "and there are all sorts of cases happening now where predators have tracked down their victims off MySpace. And they abduct them, they will rape them, and do all sorts of things." Fishel tells teenagers to follow the same rules online they would in any public place: Don\'t talk to strangers, don\'t share personal information, and don\'t agree to meet people who approach you on the Web. It\'s a message all Virginia students will hear this year, now that the state has become the first to require Internet safety lessons in school.  Attorney General Bob McDonnell is sending his staff to classrooms across Virginia to warn about online dangers.  "Young kids don\'t see how they could possibly get hurt at a computer in their own home," McDonnell says. "Parents don\'t know enough about the Internet to have the conversations they need to have with their kids. And so that\'s why we\'re doing this. The key now is education." Requiring Parental Consent McDonnell is one of several state attorneys general who\'ve made online safety a priority. But some of them say education alone isn\'t enough to protect young people. In Connecticut, North Carolina and other states, officials also are calling for stronger government regulation of social networking sites.  North Carolina Attorney General Roy Cooper is pushing a controversial proposal that would force minors who want to use the sites to get their parents\' permission first.  "It\'s better for their protection that younger kids not be on these sites," Cooper says. "And if they are, the parents ought to know about it, the parents ought to give express consent and they ought to monitor these sites very carefully." Cooper wants sites to verify each user\'s age and require parental consent when people under 18 try to sign up. But legislation to that effect stalled in North Carolina this year, and similar proposals died in Connecticut and Georgia — amid strong opposition from Internet privacy advocates and from the social networking sites themselves.  MySpace Responds At MySpace, the most popular of the sites, chief security officer Hemanshu Nigam says online consent forms would do little to deter predators and could easily be faked.  "The requirement to check against some database that a parent is in fact a parent, that is not something that can be technically implemented because you can never tell who\'s a parent just by being online," Nigam says. MySpace says it is pursuing security measures it considers more effective. It\'s removed thousands of sex offenders from the site, strengthened privacy options and is working on software that allows parents to monitor some of the things their children do online. Nigam says education — not new laws — is the best way to protect young users. "When you\'re sitting at a computer, you are not going to see a hand crashing through your monitor that grabs your child and takes him into this nether land of danger," Nigam says. "The real issue is has your teen been educated to make the right decisions online." Approached by Strangers Back at George Washington High School in Virginia, a lot of students who heard the Internet safety lecture said they were already familiar with the potential dangers on social networking sites. Jay Banks, 14, says she\'s approached by strangers online all the time. "A lot of people try to send me messages on MySpace, and I think they\'re either pervert freaks thinking they could get to know me better if I end up talking to them," Banks says. "But normally I just delete every message that they send me." In fact, Banks says she\'s decided to stop using MySpace, partly because her mother has expressed concern about those messages.  But classmate Chardnae Flowers doubts many other students here would agree to do that, even if the site started requiring parental consent.  "They find ... each and every way they can to get into MySpace," Flowers says. "You can block it one way and we\'ll find another way. I mean, it wouldn\'t be that hard to hack into it."

Question: Will North Korea Claim Victory And Stand Down?

Represent the subtitle to find a news title on NPR with less details

As the world waits for what's expected to be another ballistic missile test by North Korea sometime in the next few days, NPR's Frank Langfitt reports there's reason to think that tensions on the Korean Peninsula might soon ease. On Morning Edition, Frank passed along analysis from Daniel Pinkston, who focuses on North Korea for the International Crisis Group, a nonprofit organization "committed to preventing and resolving deadly conflict." Pinkston says that once the U.S. and South Korean militaries conclude their joint exercises later this month, North Korea "will probably claim victory. ... They will say that 'look, the Americans were really going to invade us. They were preparing for it and they ran away scared because of our nuclear deterrent [and] our great commander. ... Now we can celebrate.' " Pinkston already sees signs that the North, even as it is preparing for a missile test and continues to issue threats against the South and the U.S., is preparing for a shift in approach. He told Frank that in the past week the North Korean media have been focusing more on issues such as economic development. North Korean leader Kim Jong Un may be looking for a way out, Pinkston says. Frank is on assignment in Seoul. As for other news from the Korean Peninsula: -- North Korea "appears to be moving several missiles repeatedly on its east coast in an apparent attempt to interfere with intelligence monitoring, sources familiar with the matter said Thursday," South Korea's Yonhap News Agency reports. -- American Secretary of State John Kerry is due in Seoul on Friday. The stop is part of a trip that will include a visit to Beijing. North Korea's latest round of rhetoric will be atop Kerry's agenda. Update at 7:45 a.m. ET. Missile In Position? "North Korea has raised at least one missile into its upright firing position Wednesday, raising concerns that a launch was imminent, a U.S. official told CNN Thursday."

(Length: 47 min.) Before In The Loop went weekly, there was a little thing called The LoopCast.  We collected some of our favorite clowning from those glory days, including "This American Loop" and "Public Radio Laboratories."

represent the following document Examples:
Provided: "['Represent this subtitle to find a title that might be right above it on NPR', 'Update: Many student borrowers have responded to this story by sharing stories of their struggles with PSLF. We\'ve curated many of them here. On the morning of Monday, Aug. 27, Seth Frotman told his two young daughters that he would likely be home early that day and could take them to the playground. They cheered. He did not tell them why their dad, who often worked long hours as the student loan watchdog at the federal Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, would be free for an afternoon play date. Frotman assumed that after walking into his office and, at precisely 9:30 a.m., hitting "send" on an incendiary resignation letter to lawmakers accusing the Trump administration of betraying student borrowers, he would promptly be walked out with his things, and his career, in a cardboard box. "Unfortunately, under your leadership," Frotman wrote to his boss, Mick Mulvaney, "the Bureau has abandoned the very consumers it is tasked by Congress with protecting. Instead, you have used the Bureau to serve the wishes of the most powerful financial companies in America." Frotman arrived at this conclusion, in part, after he and his team reviewed thousands of borrower complaints the previous summer. One program kept coming up, hurting and infuriating the very people it was meant to help: the U.S. government\'s effort to reward student borrowers for public service — for being nurses, teachers and first responders. This is the story of Seth Frotman, the mangling of the program known as Public Service Loan Forgiveness, and what it says about America\'s student loan industry. The middlemen Congress created Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) in 2007, in the waning days of the Bush administration. The pitch to borrowers was simple: Spend 10 years teaching, nursing, policing or otherwise working for a qualified nonprofit while also making 120 monthly payments against your student loans, and the government would forgive whatever\'s left. As a thank you. But recent data from the Department of Education show that 99 percent of applications for loan forgiveness have been denied. The pitch may have been simple, but the execution was anything but. Today, the U.S. Department of Education is, essentially, a trillion-dollar bank, serving more than 40 million student borrowers. While the government writes these student loans, it simply cannot run the call centers or handle the paperwork for so many borrowers. It needs help. So it pays companies — the department has contracts with nine of them — to handle customer service. These servicers, as they\'re known, are glorified record-keepers and debt collectors. But they\'re also powerful gatekeepers. And these servicers, Frotman found, with a big assist from the Education Department, were wreaking havoc with the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program. Staying on track while giving back In Greek mythology, Cassandra is the daughter of King Priam of Troy and is both blessed and cursed. Her blessing: She can see into the future and knows, beyond a doubt, that her city\'s undoing awaits inside a wooden horse. Her curse: No one believes her. Seth Frotman is the Cassandra of the student loan industry. Frotman served three years as the CFPB\'s student loan ombudsman and head of its Office for Students and Young Consumers. A fierce watchdog for student borrowers, Frotman and his team reviewed thousands of complaints about the questionable practices of student loan companies. Since 2011, the CFPB has handled more than 60,000 student loan complaints and, through its investigations and enforcement actions, returned more than $750 million to aggrieved borrowers. In the spring of 2017, Frotman and his team investigated thousands of complaints about a range of issues and found a disturbing pattern with PSLF: Borrowers would notify their loan servicers of their intent to enroll in the program, then make it years into the repayment process before being told they didn\'t yet qualify — because they had the wrong loan, the wrong repayment plan or the wrong employer. Sometimes servicers would be aware of a borrower\'s status as a public servant — active-duty military, for example — but not tell the borrower about the possibility of PSLF. For borrowers who needed to consolidate their loans to qualify for forgiveness, Frotman found, a process that should have taken 30 days often took much longer. Servicer employees appeared undertrained, uninformed and prone to a litany of paperwork mistakes. "I thought, \'Oh great, I must qualify for this program,\' " says Sarah Krainin, who used loans to pay for college and a master\'s degree and now teaches at a nonprofit, public university in California. "And I asked my servicer at the time, \'Am I gonna qualify for [PSLF]?\' And they said, \'Yes, you have federal loans. You qualify.\' " Krainin says she made life choices that were informed, at least in part, by that promise.

Question: Hikers Prepare for Extreme Alaska Wilderness Trek

Beginning this Sunday, a trio of hikers will set out on a planned 20-day trek across some of Alaska's roughest terrain. They will try to cover 600 miles in an "unsupported" hike -- meaning they will pack in all their food and supplies, and vow not to forage or hunt for food along the way. Alex Chadwick talks with Ryan Jordan, one of the hikers and an expert on "ultralight" trekking and wilderness traverses, about the challenges he expects. (Soundbite of music)  ALEX CHADWICK host:  This is DAY TO DAY; I'm Alex Chadwick.  MADELEINE BRAND host:  And I'm Madeleine Brand.  In Iraq today terrorist leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi was killed in an air strike. More on that coming up, but let's talk about something else for a moment.  CHADWICK: Ryan Jordan's big vacation plans this summer do not involve tropical islands or nine-course meals. Instead he's going to spend his time avoiding starvation and dodging grizzly bears.  On Sunday he and two others will begin an attempt to walk 600 miles across what they say is the most remote wilderness in the U.S. This is to be a 20-day trip, on foot, through the Arctic Region of Alaska. Ryan Jordan joins us by phone. Ryan, thank you for being with us, and describe this country you're going through.  Mr. RYAN JORDAN (Alaska wilderness trekker):  Thanks Alex. It's pretty much the no-man's land of the United States - terrain where very few people ever hike. You know, we might get lucky once in a while and come across a caribou migration trail, but for the most part, we're not counting on any trails.  CHADWICK: This is not just a hike. You make a point of saying it's an unsupported hike. That means you will carry everything in that you're going to use. No hunting, no fishing, no foraging. It is, what you say, a hike by fair means, what exactly does that term mean?  Mr. JORDAN: Yeah, our vision was really to look at this remote wilderness as -how can we most deeply engage in this wilderness. And part of that is by minimizing our contact with society.  CHADWICK:But why not forage?  It seems kind of nutty if you pass a bush full of berries, why not eat some?  Mr. JORDAN: Well the bushes full of berries will not sprout up until August, so the closest thing we'll have to foraging is a snow cone.  CHADWICK: Snow cone. Wouldn't there be an argument that, to know the wilderness, one should be able to forage? One should be able to move through that land without bringing in dried goods, and that you might know this land more intimately if you did interact with it in that way?  Mr. JORDAN: I don't deny that at all and I think that's a wonderful way to explore the wilderness. The goal here is a little bit different, in that we just want to see if we can cross the wilderness without support.  CHADWICK: And what are you taking?  Mr. JORDAN: A lot of mashed potatoes, a lot of cream of wheat, and a lot of chocolate fruit snacks, almond butter. Things where we can extract the maximum amount of calories for as little weight as possible.  CHADWICK: There would be two things I think that you would run into on this trip aside from blisters and hunger: bears and mosquitoes. Which one do you think is going to be worse?  Mr. JORDAN: I think mosquitoes will be far worse. They actually land on you and crawl all over you so you can have a thousand, 2,000 mosquitoes on you at any given time.  CHADWICK: You're going to be hiking at night and sleeping during the day, why is that?  Mr. JORDAN: It allows us to take advantage of hiking at cooler temperatures which allows us to go faster without overheating, and sleeping in the day allows us to get rest at warmer temperatures which means we can carry less weight in our sleep system and insulating clothing.  CHADWICK: Wouldn't you be able to make better time if you could see where you were going?  Mr. JORDAN: In the Arctic we have the luxury of near 24-hour daylight, so that is one of the ideal strategies for trekking up there.  CHADWICK: Well, what do you think it's going to be like?  Mr. JORDAN: I think it's going to be long, I think it's going to be hard, and I think it's going to be exhausting.  CHADWICK: Why exactly are you undertaking this adventure?  Mr. JORDAN: Roman and I have looked at this style of hiking for many years and we're just looking to, what's the next level of human endurance?  How far can a man walk carrying only what he has on his back?  And that question really has not been answered yet.  CHADWICK: The two people you are hiking with Roman Dial and Jason Geck, both of Alaska Pacific University, both very experienced outdoors hikers. You've never been on a long-distance hike with either one of them have you?  Mr. JORDAN: No, not with either one of them.  CHADWICK:But I just wonder about the idea of setting off on this with two people you've never hiked with before.  Mr. JORDAN: Well the number of people that are mentally and physically capable of doing something like this is pretty limited. And you know, we all checked references and discussed o

Question: New Programs Aim To Close The Wealth Gap

Represent this text to find its title about the same news but with slightly less depth

Part two of a two-part report. The gap in the wealth of white families and what's owned by blacks and Hispanics has widened in recent years. Researchers say it will widen even more unless steps are taken to break what's become a vicious cycle — the rich getting richer and the poor struggling to keep from falling further behind. The city of San Francisco is taking one step to help even the playing field.  Children entering the city's kindergartens are getting their own college savings accounts. "It's all about building aspirations in that child's mind," says City Treasurer Jose Cisneros. The city will deposit $50 in each account — $100 for those students who get free and reduced price lunches. Local nonprofits will match parents' contributions up to another $200. The amounts are modest, Cisneros admits. But he says, in a city where many public school children are poor, it's more about the message than the money. "When a child grows up and sees — 'Oh, look at this, concrete evidence, a college savings account, my name on it. That must mean I'm I going,'" he says. "And we wanted to bring that kind of success to San   Francisco." Right now, half the kindergarten classes are participating. Soon, it will be all of them. This program is part of an effort nationwide by government and nonprofit groups to narrow the racial wealth gap. The Pew  Research Center recently found that the median white household has net assets worth 20 times that of the median black household and 18 times that of a Hispanic family — assets such as housing, savings and investments, minus any debt. Ben Mangan runs a nonprofit group in San Francisco called EARN, which helps low-income families save money for long-term investments, such as college, a home or business. He says the racial wealth gap itself is propelling the economic divide. "The fact is, communities of color have less of the dollars across the generations and so they're at a disadvantage in their ability to invest in the things that would allow them to get ahead," he says. His group has helped people such as 34-year-old Helena Edwards, who today lives in a three-bedroom condominium in the Bayview section of San   Francisco. She bought the place about a year ago, after she, her partner, their daughter, a niece and a nephew came home one day to find an eviction notice on their door. "The apartment we was living at, the landlord went into foreclosure and he didn't tell us,"  Edwards says. First, she got the eviction delayed. Then, with the help of EARN, she started a matched savings account for a down payment on a home. The group also gave her financial advice. Edwards grew up in foster care,  and no one really showed her how to handle money, let alone how to buy a house. "Lot of stuff that I never knew about. Never. I don't even know anybody who owned a house but one person,"  she says. Edwards learned how to have money automatically withheld from her paycheck to put into a savings account. And she got her favorite tip of all — something she calls a "credit card condom" — to help control debt. "It's a little envelope you put over your credit card and you write your goal," she explains. "Every time you use that credit card, you had to pull it out of that sleeve. So you got to read, 'Do I need this, or do I need to save for a house?'" Now that she has her house, Edwards says she can focus on other things, such as finishing her college education. Tom Shapiro of Brandeis University, who has studied the racial wealth gap extensively, says families that participate in these individual development accounts, as they're called, have shown promising results. "Their foreclosure rates have been much lower. Their savings are much higher.  Indicators around their children's education are much better," he says. "But we're talking about maybe thousands of families, not even tens of thousands in a state." And there are millions who need help. These programs are also expensive, which make them difficult to fund at a time when government at all levels is stretched for resources. San Francisco's Kindergarten to College accounts will cost the city about $500,000 a year. Shapiro says it will take a lot more than that  to narrow a gap that's so firmly entrenched. He thinks one solution might be tax breaks to encourage low-income families to save more. Shapiro says that might offset the many tax breaks today — on things such as estates and investments — that tend to favor those who already have wealth and help to widen the economic divide. Stuart Butler of the Heritage Foundation says another way to encourage more savings by low-income families might be for employers to automatically enroll people in savings plans — for things such as 401(k) plans — instead of waiting for them to sign up, which they often don't do.  Once enrolled, he says, people are more likely to keep saving. DAVID GREENE, Host:  You know the old saying: The rich get richer. Well, here's a troubling caveat: Those getting richer are also

Question: An Omnivore's Dilemma: Would You Eat Michael Pollan Microbe Cheese?

Making your own cheese and yogurt is all the rage these days. (Our friends at Kitchen Window broke down the process in a recent post, if you're curious.) Well, it looks like a scientist at the University of California, Los Angeles has taken the whole DIY fermentation idea to an entirely new level. Microbiologist Christina Agapakis teamed up with the artist Sissel Tolaas to create cheese using the microbes that grow on their skin. They also made selfie fromage for food writer Michael Pollan, author of The Omnivore's Dilemma and other titles, and the artist Olafur Eliasson. The curious curds currently live at the Science Gallery, at Trinity College in Dublin, where visitors are encouraged to sniff — but, thankfully, not eat — the displays. "People were really nervous and uncomfortable, and kind of making these grossed out faces," Agapakis says about visitors to her exhibit. "Then they smell the cheese, and they'll realize that it just smells like a normal cheese." In general, cheese is made by taking milk and spoiling it with bacteria called Lactobacillus. The bugs turn the milk sugars into acid, which in turn makes the milk clump up or curdle. The chunks are separated from the liquid and then aged with specific yeast to create a Camembert, Parmesan or an American cheddar. Lactobacillus and yeast are all around us. They hang out on plants, inside animals' guts and on our skin. So Agapakis and Tolaas thought, why not collect some these personal microcritters and use them to curdle milk? The microbiologist used swabs from her mouth and skin, as well as from Pollan's belly button, Eliasson's tears and another scientist's feet. She grew the bacteria and yeast in Petri dishes in the lab and then, once she had enough, she added them to fresh milk. The result was a cheese designed to make you rethink the sometimes fine line between stinky and appetizing. The bacteria and yeast that inhabit our feet or skin aren't too different from those that grow in cheese, Agapakis tells The Salt. "So a lot of the smells on cheese are very similar to body odors." Agapakis says she understands why the project might make some people uncomfortable — even grossed out. But she insists that's not the point. Instead, she and Tolaas want to challenge us to think more about our emotional response to odors and how the context can influence our impressions. "The idea was to recognize, how do we get grossed out? Then to think about it and move beyond that initial idea of disgust," Agapakis says. "Why are we more uncomfortable with bacteria on the body than we are with bacteria in cheese?" Besides, Agapakis and Tolaas aren't the first to make this sort of selfie cuisine. Last year, Rogue Brewing Company in Oregon made a beer using yeast from brewmaster John Maier's beard.

Question: Health Care For Seniors Often Goes Beyond Their Desires

As people get older, their health care goals may shift from living as long as possible to maintaining a good quality of life: quality over quantity. In many cases, the medical treatment older people receive often doesn't reflect this change in priorities. A wide-ranging report from the Dartmouth Atlas Project uses Medicare claims data to examine aging Americans' health care. Among other things, the researchers found five key areas where too many older people continue to receive treatments that don't meet established guidelines or, often, their own goals and preferences. Two of the five have to do with preventive care that may not benefit seniors: screening for breast and prostate cancer. The other three address care at the end of life: late referral to hospice care, time in the intensive care unit in the last six months of life, and the placement of feeding tubes in patients with dementia. While the measures themselves are quite different, they each highlight the need for better communication and shared decision-making among patients, their families and their medical providers. "Where there are harms and benefits and people judge them differently, that's where the shared decision-making comes in," said Dr. Julie Bynum, an associate professor at the Dartmouth Institute for Health Policy and Clinical Practice in Lebanon, N.H. Despite the apparent simplicity of a mammogram or a blood test to check for prostate cancer, an initial positive finding for cancer can set off a cascade of further testing and treatment. Those follow-up procedures can cause harm to older patients, whose health may be fragile or who have multiple medical conditions. In addition, older people may well die from something else before a cancer progresses, said Dr. Richard Wender, chief cancer control officer at the American Cancer Society. "The single hardest concept for the public to understand is the natural history of finding a cancer through a screening process," Wender said. "Many people have the sense that had it not been found, that cancer would have threatened their life within a couple of years or maybe even a couple of months." The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force cautioned older patients about both tests. The independent panel, which weighs evidence and makes recommendations about prevention services, has concluded that prostate cancer screening isn't beneficial at any age, and said that there's not enough evidence to know whether women benefit or risk harm by undergoing breast cancer screening after age 74. Still, the Dartmouth Atlas analysis found that 20 percent of male Medicare beneficiaries age 75 and older got a PSA test to screen for prostate cancer in 2012, and 24 percent of female beneficiaries that age had a mammogram to screen for breast cancer that year. Guidelines aside, clinicians and their patients need to discuss the pros and cons of testing and make a decision based on the patient's values and preferences, experts say. "I ask people: Do you think you're going to be around in 10 years? Help me decide whether to order a mammogram," said Bynum, whose work focuses on geriatrics. As people near the end of their lives, it's especially important for patients and their family members to discuss their goals and wishes with clinicians. Patients often want to be kept comfortable rather than undergo medical interventions, but physicians and nurses are still trained to do everything possible to prevent death, said Dr. Diane Meier, director of the Center to Advance Palliative Care and professor of geriatrics at Mount Sinai's Icahn School of Medicine in New York. The three end-of-life criteria that the Dartmouth researchers cited are areas that geriatricians agree are critical but that haven't gained traction with providers, health systems and the general public, said Bynum. Late referral to hospice and spending time in a hospital intensive care unit can adversely affect terminal patients' health, result in higher costs and run counter to their hope for a peaceful death. Feeding tubes in patients with advanced dementia can lead to other complications. The Dartmouth study found that in 2012, 17 percent of Medicare beneficiaries who died were enrolled in hospice only during the last three days of life. Medicare, however, will approve hospice benefits, which generally include comfort care rather than curative treatment, when the physician certifies that someone is expected to live for no more than six months. The study also found that people spent an average of nearly four days in intensive care during the last six months of life, a figure that is trending upward. Finally, even though it doesn't prolong their lives to place feeding tubes in patients with dementia, who naturally lose interest in food and their ability to swallow in the final stages of the disease, 6 percent of Medicare beneficiaries with dementia received them in their last six months of life in 2012. Communication is key, but the skills that are needed to counse

Question: 'Virtual Iraq' Game Aims to Help Vets with PTSD

Represent this subtitle to find a title that might be right above it on NPR.

Psychologist Albert "Skip" Rizzo talks about "Virtual Iraq," an immersion therapy video game he created for psychologists treating veterans struggling with PTSD.  The game simulates the sights, sounds and smells of combat and allows a patient to re-enter a traumatic situation gradually. Sue Halpern discusses her recent article about "Virtual Iraq" published in The New Yorker. Albert "Skip" Rizzo is a clinical psychologist at the University of Southern California. He developed Virtual Iraq, a simulation program the Department of Defense is hoping can help Iraq veterans suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder, commonly known as PTSD.  The ability to return vets as close as possible to the scene of their trauma has changed the game of treatment, Rizzo says. Until virtual reality — VR — came on the scene, he says, exposure therapy required a therapist guiding the patient with verbal commands. For patients suffering from PTSD, however, one of the key reactions to cues and reminders of trauma is avoidance. As a result, Rizzo says, it has been difficult for soldiers to revisit memories that bring them pain.  "You never know what's going on in the hidden world of imagination," Rizzo says. "VR puts a person back into the sights, sounds, smells, feelings of the scene. ... You know what the patient's seeing, and you can help prompt them through the experience in a very safe and supportive fashion." Rizzo says the VR program he developed gives therapists total control. As in an optometrist's office, in which the doctor dials in a proper lens strength, Rizzo says Virtual Iraq allows the clinician to craft the most evocative and appropriate scenario for a particular patient. Rizzo says the program can put a soldier in a Humvee, on a desert road, at any time of day, with any kind of weather and with a bevy of ambient sounds. He says they can even make the chair rumble as if the engine is on and that the smell of body odor can be pumped into the room. But Rizzo says not all soldiers are ready to turn the Humvee on, so to speak. He says some therapy sessions begin with the soldier seated in the virtual Humvee, perhaps with the sounds of the wind in the background. Only then are some veterans prepared to to talk about their traumatic experience. "As you go through the therapy, the patient may be invited to turn on the motor," Rizzo says. Sounds, helicopters, jets flying over, insurgents coming out of palm groves, IEDs, explosions can be delivered into the environment. "Eventually, as they tell their story, you find out that it wasn't just a vehicle in front, it was a vehicle with five other friends. ... The  guy that died was going to be discharged in two months. You start to see a rich depth of story." But there are limitations, Rizzo says, to the accuracy the machine can achieve. During the first trial, Rizzo says the soldier refused to "drive" the Humvee, because the ignition switch was rendered by developers in the "off" position. Rizzo says they re-rendered the switch. It's not a game of precision, though. Rizzo says the virtual Iraq doesn't have to be an exact replica in order to have this prompting, evoking effect. "A helicopter's a helicopter," Rizzo says. "The sound is the driving factor. We try to make it more real and relevant."  Certain cues are more effective than others. Rizzo says the sound of an AK-47 belting out rounds, for instance, results in considerable physiological reactions, including a big spike in heart rate. He also says there's a big reaction to one other battle sound: the soundtrack of a baby crying.  Virtual Iraq does have one major departure from real Iraq, Rizzo says. Though soldiers do carry a "gun" — a resin model of an M-4 weighted to approximate an actual weapon carried in Iraq — there is no shooting in Rizzo's world. "We don't want people to fire back," Rizzo says. "We're not in the business of fostering some sort of revenge fantasy. ... It's about dealing with your own emotional memories and processing it and hopefully healing."

Question: Stanley Corngold - 1905: A Literary Response to Modernity

This talk deals with representative works of German and Hapsburg fiction circa 1905. Stanley Corngold covers literature produced by the genius of Thomas Mann (1875-1955), Rainer Maria Rilke (1875-1926), Robert Musil (1880-1942) and Franz Kafka (1883-1924), that registered swiftly changing perceptions of human time and space owing to the frenetic pace of Central European modernization. As the literary community responded to technical innovations in the manufacture of commodities; the associated acquisition of wealth, producing changes in class-structure; the growth of cities, creating centers of simultaneous but dissociated activity requiring new medial connection, some saw these changes as matters of great intellectual interest, others as signs of the pathological breakdown of older norms and values.

NPR\'s Ina Jaffe, who attended the debate, tells Robert Siegel that much of the debate centered on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Social issues such as abortion also took up a large portion of the discussion. Seven other candidates also participated in the debate: Kansas Sen.

The candidates were asked among other things the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.  Mitt Romney was asked by MSNBC\'s Chris Matthews whether the focus of the war on terror should remain on Osama bin Laden.  Mr. MITT ROMNEY (Republican, Presidential Candidate): Of course we did.

Mr. ROMNEY: We\'ll move everything to get him but I don\'t want to buy in to the democratic pitch that this is all about one person, Osama bin Laden. Because after we get him, there\'s going to be another and another. This is about Shia and Sunni. This is about Hezbollah, Hamas and al-Qaida and the Muslim brotherhood. This is a worldwide jihadist effort to try and cost the collapse of all moderate Islamic governments and replace them with a caliphate. They ultimately want to bring down the United States of America. This is a global effort we\'re going to have to lead - to overcome this jihadist effort. It\'s more than Osama bin Laden. But he is going to pay and he will die.  Unidentified Man: Okay. Thank you.  SIEGEL: That\'s Mitt Romney. Senator John McCain was asked about the Bush administration\'s current war strategy.  Unidentified Man: Do you need anything beyond what the president has now to win the war?  Senator JOHN MCCAIN (Republican, Arizona): No. I think it\'s on the right track. The war was terribly mismanaged. The war was terribly mismanaged and we now have to fix a lot of the mistakes that were made - books have been written. But we have anew strategy and a new general and each young men and women are committed to winning.  SIEGEL: NPR\'s Ina Jaffe is at the Ronald Reagan Librarian Simi Valley and she joins me now. Ina, the debate was on the Ronald Reagan Library and the candidates certainly has no problem evoking the legacy of Ronald Reagan and their answers today.  INA JAFFE: No, they didn\'t, Robert. I should say that this evening began with Mrs. Reagan being ushered into the auditorium on the arm of Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and she received a standing ovation. And she looked very happy to be at that event but she also looked rather frail. And her presence was really felt through out this even. If there was any candidate that didn\'t mention Ronald Reagan, I think I missed it. They talked about him in terms of cutting taxes - certainly but they also talked about him in terms of his ability to communicate a clear message that the American people could get behind and his optimism. Optimism was a - continually invoked by many of the candidates as a key to getting America unified again.  SIEGEL: Well, by way of contrast, how would you describe the candidates\' references to President Bush?  JAFFE: Well, that was a little less glowing. They were moderate in the way they express themselves but they all did find some differences with the president -either on the conduct of the war - Senator McCain - or in terms of the way he had handled other issues - immigration for example. But it was interesting that that Mayor Rudy Giuliani - who is considered one of the front-runners, leads in many polls - was the one who defended the president the most in a way. He said that no one should forget that after 9/11, we thought this country would be attacked again. This country hasn\'t been attacked again. And he said that the president has to get credit for putting America on offense in the war against terror.

Question: Talk About Going Undercover: U.K. Cops Slept With Targets Of Their Spying

Represent this subtitle to find a title that might be right above it on NPR

This sounds like a movie or detective tale. But The Guardian reports that it's for real:  "A police spy married an activist he  met while undercover in the environmental protest movement and then  went on to have children with her, The Guardian can reveal. "He is the fourth spy now to have been identified as an undercover police  officer engaged in the covert surveillance of eco-activists. Three of those  spies are accused of having had sexual relationships with the people they were  targeting."  The undercover cops were members of London's Metropolitan Police force. Department officials tell the Guardian they are investigating, and that it's "never acceptable" for undercover officers to engage in such relations.

Question: Is An Apology For Slavery Enough?

Represent this text to find its title about the same news but with slightly less depth

Florida apologized last month for the state's role in slavery -- a history the legislature called, "shameful." Marvin Dunn's grandmother's father was a slave in Florida, and he's left wondering why he doesn't feel any better, given the apology:  Maybe it's because the apology is a meaningless act that only a dolt or outright racist would oppose. It cost the state nothing and of course, there was not a word about the thorny question of reparations. As one of the African Americans to whom the apology was aimed, it was not enough.  Dunn wrote an op-ed in Sunday's Miami Herald, laying out four specific steps that he believes would make the apology meaningful. What do you think? Does an apology make any difference? Should states go further?

Question: Academy Tradition Marks Year's End for Plebes

The first-year students of the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Md., graduated from plebe to third-class status on Thursday. All they have left to do is climb the Herndon Monument, a 21-foot, gray obelisk. That is not an easy task. Upper classmen lather the monument with 200 pounds of lard. The plebes must work together to climb to the top of the monument and replace a white, plebe "Dixie cup" hat with an upperclassman's hat.  Stephanie Marudas reports from WYPR in Baltimore. (Soundbite of crowd)  ALEX COHEN, host:  What you're hearing now is sound from an annual rite of passage that freshmen, or plebes, endure at the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis. Around this time of year they graduate from plebe status to third class, but to do so they must scale a famed and incredibly slippery campus landmark.  Reporter Stephanie Marudas from member station WYPR in Baltimore reports.  (Soundbite of crowd)  STEPHANIE MARUDAS: Hundreds of excited shoeless plebes form a human pyramid to hoist themselves up to the 21-foot Herndon Monument. Picture a much smaller Washington Monument made out of gray granite. But this morning, Herndon is greased with 200 pounds of lard, and one of these freshmen have to get to the top and replace a plebe-cap with a midshipman's hat.  Standing tall at three to four levels high, the plebes scramble and wipe off the lard with their hands and t-shirts. But before too long, they wobble, crash to the ground and start all over again.  (Soundbite of crowd)  MARUDAS: Plebe Michael Trombitis(ph) steps aside to reassess.  Mr. MICHAEL TROMBITIS (Student, U.S. Naval Academy): Nobody's gotten high enough yet for me to climb, so it's like, you know, you got to kind of strategize, you know? I don't want to be all greasy and then get to the top and just slip right off. You know, you got to have one dry guy to get to the top, you know, get some friction in between the bodies.  MARUDAS: It's a cool, sunny spring morning. Hundreds of classmates, friends and parents stand by and cheer on the plebes. Sharon Disher(ph) catches a glimpse of her daughter whose t-shirt reads, Here's To You, Mom. Disher was in the first class of women to graduate from the Naval Academy. She recalls the day in 1976 when she climbed Herndon.  Ms. SHARON DISHER (Alumni, U.S. Naval Academy): I remember somebody grabbed my foot and pulled me off, and the guy said to me - I looked at him and he went, no girls on Herndon.  MARUDAS: But times have changed since Disher's days at the academy, and plebe men and women tackle Herndon together. Naval Academy historian Jim Cheevers says plebes started climbing the monument in 1940.  Mr. JIM CHEEVERS (Historian, U.S. Naval Academy): Sometime in the mid-'40s they started leaving one of their hats on top to prove that they had conquered their freshmen year. And then, 1949, the upperclassmen said, gee, this looks too easy so they started greasing the monument.  MARUDAS: Plebes don't have privileges upperclassmen have, so the Herndon climb is the plebes' race for freedom. Midshipman Jason Appley(ph) explains.  Mr. JASON APPLEY (Student, U.S. Naval Academy): We can listen to music, watch movies and stuff. You know, we have liberty Friday nights and Sunday, which they don't. And it's just a world of difference.  (Soundbite of crowd)  MARUDAS: Few classes have ever scaled the greased monument in less than an hour. This year's plebe class took one hour, 32 minutes, 42 seconds. As soon as plebe Jamie Schrock reaches the top of Herndon and replaces the plebe-cap with a midshipman's hat, the place goes wild.  (Soundbite of crowd)  MARUDAS: Schrock receives a framed set of admiral stripes for his accomplishment and holds them up over his head like a diploma. He describes his moment of triumph.  Mr. JAMIE SCHROCK (Student, U.S. Naval Academy): You know, I saw the bottom was strong, so I thought, well, what the heck, let's go for it. And there it happened, so I'm pretty happy.  MARUDAS: Naval Academy legend holds that whoever rises to the top of Herndon will be the first in the class to make admiral. No one has done that yet, but maybe Schrock will.  For NPR News in Annapolis, I'm Stephanie Marudas.

Question: Gun Rights Outweigh Gun Control In New Pew Survey

For the first time in at least 20 years, significantly more Americans say it's more important to protect the right to own guns than to control gun ownership, according to the Pew Research Center. The survey found that more than half of Americans (52 percent) sided with gun rights compared with the 46 percent who favored gun control. The findings represent the continuation of a shift that was only briefly interrupted by the Newtown, Conn., school shootings in 2012. In April 2007, the Pew survey found only 32 percent of Americans said it was more important to protect the right to own guns, while 60 percent said it was more important to control gun ownership. Pew says its survey, conducted during the first week of this month, also found that well over half of Americans said that owning a gun protects people from crime. From Pew:  "Nearly six-in-ten Americans (57 percent) say gun ownership does more to protect people from becoming victims of crime, while 38 percent say it does more to endanger personal safety. In the days after Newtown, 48 percent said guns do more to protect people and 37 percent said they placed people at risk."  The most dramatic shift in opinion took place among black Americans, according to the nonpartisan Pew. In December 2012, only 29 percent of black respondents said owning a gun helps protect people from crime, but this year, 54 percent said so. Many women also changed their view, Pew says, citing the 51 percent who said owning a gun protects people from becoming victims of crime in 2014, compared with only 40 percent who said so in 2012. For the most recent survey, Pew says it spoke to 1,507 people 18 years of age or older, spread among all 50 states and the District of Columbia. While about 600 interviews took place on landline phones, around 900 were conducted on cellphones. The survey has a margin of error of plus or minus 2.9 percentage points. In a comparison of gun violence statistics from 1993 and the current decade that we reported on last year, both Pew and the federal Bureau of Justice Statistics found that the U.S. had experienced a sharp drop in the rate of gun homicides and other violence, despite population growth. As we reported:  "There were seven gun homicides per 100,000 people in 1993, the Pew Research Center study says, which dropped to 3.6 gun deaths in 2010. The study relied in part on data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention."  The researchers used 1993 as a reference point because it's seen as the height of gun violence in America; they also noted that gun-related violence fell sharply in the 1990s and more gradually in later years. But Pew also noted that many Americans didn't seem to agree with the numbers. A survey found that only 12 percent of respondents thought the gun crime rate was lower than it was in 1993 — and 56 percent thought it was higher.

'Marketplace' Report: India's Steel Buy

Represent this subtitle to find a title that might be right above it on NPR:

Indian business leaders are celebrating the triumph of the Tata Group, which won the bid for a British-Dutch steel company last week. Many Indian observers say the deal is a reversal of colonial-era fortunes. Marketplace's Steve Tripoli talks with Alex Chadwick about implications for other Western companies. ALEX CHADWICK, host:  Back now with DAY TO DAY. Big business news from India. A company there bought a European steel firm for $12 billion. MARKETPLACE's Steve Tripoli is here. Steve, this steel buyout, this has been hailed - I guess by journalists, at least - all across India as a kind of reverse colonialism. And now some Europeans are worried about foreign ownership of their assets. That's kind of a familiar theme in the global economy, but it's usually running the other way, isn't it?  STEVE TRIPOLI: That's for sure, Alex. You know, remember years ago when a Japanese company bought Rockefeller Center in New York. More recently, the Chinese computer company Lenovo bought a big chunk of IBM, an American business icon.  You know, what's going on here is simply that formerly poor countries are getting rich enough to be big players in the global game. And does that mean some dislocation? Yes it does, but we should minimize that. But it also means that the economic pie is growing, so a larger slice for the Indias and Brazils and Chinas of the world doesn't necessarily mean a smaller slice for me and you.  CHADWICK: But somehow, when big assets like a steel company have sold, a lot of people see that as losing something - losing something forever.  TRIPOLI: Well it is, but let me try to explain why that doesn't have to sort of come off that way or even be the case. You know, when I was thinking about this story this morning, it brought to mind a financial planner I often interview. His name is Jim Pinney from Pinney and Scofield in Cambridge, Massachusetts. He thinks people should invest part of their savings in developing countries, and the reason is demographics.  Those countries are generally younger than the Western world and Japan. Jim Pinney says we shouldn't be too alarmed to be selling them some of what we've accumulated.  Mr. JIM PINNEY (Financial Planner, Pinney and Scofield): The younger your population is, the more people you have to support the old people like me, who are going to be in a nursing home. It's just like in the farming world, you know, the children buy the farm from the parents. It's not basically different to when you are doing that between younger people in one country and older people in another country.  CHADWICK: Buying the farm from the parents. It's kind of like when someone retires and slowly sells off their assets.  TRIPOLI: Exactly. You know, your elderly parents or mine, they sell the big house for a small condo. Maybe that big house becomes my asset or yours. Or they spend on their savings as they age. Those pent-up earnings spur someone else's business.  Now, this isn't to say that the wealthiest countries are about to dwindle away or sell themselves down to nothing, far from it - especially the United States, which is aging much more slowly than Europe or Japan.  CHADWICK: So there can be wider benefits here as well to this shifting of assets.  TRIPOLI: Yeah. In economic theory, that's the way it works. You know, in theory at least, these events are generally favorable for everyone, because in the end, some decades from now, you may have a world where wealth is more evenly distributed. And that's exactly what globalists in our own government say they want. They see that world as likely to be a more peaceful world. So temporary dislocations aside - they're never easy, and yes, someone else does own some of what you once owned - but that's just the global economic version of a generational shift, and it's really not to be feared.  So with that, Alex, let's take a very short look down the road. Later today on MARKETPLACE, we'll have a story about how an oil boom in one small Canadian town really hasn't improved many people's lives there.  CHADWICK: Thank you again, Steve Tripoli, of public radio's daily business show MARKETPLACE, produced by American Public Media.

NPR's Edward Lifson reports from Berlin that negotiators agreed today on a formula to divide up a five billion dollar German compensation fund for Nazi-era slave laborers and forced laborers. An estimated two hundred forty thousand slave laborers -- mainly Jews who were put to work in concentration camps and had been expected to die doing their jobs -- will receive up to 75 hundred dollars. Forced laborers -- non-Jews from the former Soviet Union and Eastern Europe -- will receive up to 25 hundred dollars. The German government and German industries that benefited from slave and forced labor will pay equal amounts into the fund. The German parliament must still approve the necessary legislation before the surviving laborers can be compensated.

There was a point last night, as you'll see in the video below, when President Barack Obama was interrupted by hecklers as he spoke at a Los Angeles fundraiser for Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif. The protesters were shouting about the Pentagon's "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy that bars homosexuals from openly serving in the military -- and in particular whether Obama, who has called on Congress to lift that ban, is going to make something happen. Fast forward to about the 35-second mark and you'll see, and hear, the president stop and speak directly to the hecklers. "We are going to do that!" Obama says. "Hey, hold on a second! Hold on a second! We are going to do that. ... I agree. I agree. I agree. ... What the young man was talking about was, we need to repeal 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell,' which I agree with." At another point, AP adds, the president told the hecklers "I don't know why you're hollering."
