European leaders are triggering a dispute mechanism over Iran’s failure to live up to terms of nuclear deal. President Trump had already pulled the U.S. out of the 2015 agreement.

Question: Bachmann's Legacy: A Trailblazer, For Better And For Worse

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

Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann's announcement Wednesday that she won't seek a fifth term unleashed a torrent of tweets and blog posts on the left lampooning the short-lived 2012 presidential candidate. Yet the response — her retirement effectively dominated the news cycle — provided a glimpse of Bachmann's impact on Washington. While she amassed a fat portfolio of missteps and fabrications since her 2006 election, the political provocateur and conservative Christian also secured a place in political history by riding the Tea Party wave early, and parlaying an unrepentant, cable-ready persona and House seat to national conspicuousness. Even detractors allow that her audacity helped open the door for conservative female candidates and for new Republican Tea Party favorites, including Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and, to some extent, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio. And she established herself as a fundraising juggernaut, raising nearly $15 million for her win-by-a-whisker race in 2012 against Democrat Jim Graves. He spent about $2.3 million in a race that was nationalized by her polarizing politics. "She was definitely a presence," says conservative blogger Dan Riehl, who added that he chose to "ignore most of the calamity, the gaffes" that have punctuated her political career. "She was a voice against the Republican establishment, a thorn in its side," he says. "In certain ways, she was an iconic figure — effective just because she was there ... She was kicking on the door early and was isolated. You have some people benefiting from the heat she took." It wasn't her effectiveness as a legislator that propelled Bachmann's national profile: She rated as a House backbencher during her time on Capitol Hill. But she founded the House Tea Party Caucus, became a face of the emerging movement, and made "repeal Obamacare" her clarion call, thus guaranteeing a role on the national stage. "Congresswoman Bachmann was able to skillfully use the media, particularly cable media, to articulate a very conservative message, and articulate opposition to the Obama administration in ways that went well beyond that of mainstream Republicans," says Kathryn Pearson, an American politics expert and associate professor at the University of Minnesota. "She did not do a lot legislatively; it wasn't her focus," Pearson says, "but she gave voice to Tea Party members and made life difficult for her party's leadership." Bachmann, who in 2011 gave the first televised Tea Party response to a presidential State of the Union address, proved impervious to persistent scolding by fact-checking organizations for misstatements and her often tenuous grasp of facts. She won national notoriety with her sharp rhetoric on cable television news shows, where she once observed that Obama may have "anti-American views." Tax burdens? In her view, they were comparable to the Holocaust. She also asserted that former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi made taxpayers foot the bill for a $100,000 in-flight bar tab — another claim that was proven false. That penchant for hyperbole, if not out-right falsity, made her ubiquitous in the cable TV arena but tarnished her reputation as a serious political player and made a wide swath of her home state Republicans cringe. "To the degree that she was a laughingstock — that's not good when you're a Republican in Minnesota," says Sarah Janecek, a GOP activist and founder of Politics in Minnesota, a state public affairs news service. Bachmann wasn't always good for national Republicans either, as the party attempted to broaden its appeal. She proved to be a reliable villain for Democrats, who often used her over-the-top comments to fuel their own direct-mail fundraising efforts. "She was a polarizing figure and has drawn a lot of fire, and made some missteps," says Riehl, the conservative blogger. "The Tea Party movement, however, in some ways, has moved ahead of her now, grown beyond her, and is not as handcuffed to the social right." "That's important going forward," Riehl says. Even so, Bachmann's improbable, audacious run for the presidential nomination in 2012 still resonates with Riehl and other Republicans. She wasn't the first conservative bomb-thrower from the House to run for president, but she proved a more viable candidate than any other before her campaign fizzled prior to the Iowa caucuses. "Say what you want, but she was a woman making her way into an all-boys' club, and because she was on the right, she didn't have women's groups rallying around her," Riehl says. "She was there on her own." Says Janecek: "Love her or hate her, Michele Bachmann did herself proud. She was the only woman at the podium during those [presidential] debates, she looked like a million bucks, and she had something to say." "When Michele decided she wanted something," says Janecek, who first interviewed Bachmann when she ran for the state Senate, "It was balls to the wall." Now, with her presidential campaign activity under investigation and facing another t

Question: AP, Reuters To Skip SC Republican Debate To Protest Restrictions

Associated Press and Reuters photographers are pretty much everywhere news occurs, be it war zones, Super Bowls and the myriad of lesser events that are soon forgotten. But they apparently won't be at Thursday night's Greenville, SC debate between some of those Republicans running or still mulling a campaign for their party's presidential nomination. Actually, both news services apparently won't be sending print reporters, either, to cover the debate. The news services would rather have their photographers there. But they are refusing to send them due to unusual restrictions being placed on them by the co-sponsors of the debate — the South Carolina Republican Party and Fox News Channel, which will carry the debate. Read More The debate organizers will only let a single news photographer take photos before the beginning of the debate. Once it's News photographers won't be allowed to do what they usually do at these debates, take photos throughout. Given that the debate is already missing the presumed frontrunner, Mitt Romney as well as other big names like Mike Huckabee, Sarah Palin and Newt Gingrich, you might think the debate organizers would want all the attention they could attract. Apparently not. Attending will be Rep. Ron Paul, former governors Tim Pawlenty of Minnesota and Gary Johnson of New Mexico, and Herman Cain, an Atlanta businessman and radio personality. The AP issued the following statement:  This is to inform you that The Associated Press is not planning to cover Thursday night's Republican presidential candidate debate in South Carolina because of restrictions placed on media access. The debate sponsors, Fox News Channel and the South Carolina Republican Party, will only allow photos to be taken in the moments ahead of the debate and not during the event itself. These are restrictions that violate basic demands of newsgathering and differ from other debates where more access was granted. Accordingly, the AP will not staff the event in any format nor will the AP disseminate any pool photos taken by another outlet. This is consistent with longstanding policy exercised in coverage of many events. Should access conditions change, the AP will reassess this decision and expedite a new coverage advisory if warranted. The AP  The AP is a membership organization of news outlets whose photos, print stories, videos and audio are used by print and broadcast outlets around the country, including some in very red states. Reuters, a competing news service, is owned by Thomson Reuters and is based in Great Britain. AP reports the following:  South Carolina Republican Party Executive Director Joel Sawyer said there have been restrictions on photography in the past and said the event would be seen by many people even without still photographers present. Archive photos show photographers from both agencies were allowed in during extensive parts of the 2008 debate, (David) Ake (AP's  assistant chief of bureau/photos) said. Cherie Grzech, Fox director of politics, said: "AP will be allowed access before and after the debate if they areinterested."  Dick Harpootlian, chair of the South Carolina Democratic Party, had a ready response for the stand-off.  "The state Republican Party must  have hired whoever was doing the North Korean press events. This kind of thing  works well in most totalitarian regimes. "The rationale is that somebody  decided they want to control the public face of this thing. It's just become so  obsessive compulsive - they haven't thought it  out. "This debate is a big nothing burger  anyway. This is a Little Rascals, let's-put-on-a-show  event."

Question: Lack Of Resources Hampers Afghan Firefighters

The United States and other donors are spending billions of dollars to refurbish the Afghan army and police, providing them with expensive training, weapons, vehicles and even aircraft. Yet other Afghans who don a uniform and serve their country, like national firefighters, have been left out of this mass investment — at least until now. The national fire department is an agency many Afghans — let alone foreigners — don't even realize exists. The firemen say the neglect makes it harder for them to do their jobs now than at any time during the agency's 90-year history.   The Need For New Trucks  On one particular day, an alarm sounds and Kabul's main fire station springs to life. A dozen men hop into well-worn fire engines that spew nearly as much black smoke as the blazes they are called to fight. The trucks lurch forward, leaving behind a trail of water seeping from their leaky tanks. The city fire chief shakes his head in frustration. Col. Mohammad Kazem complains that he has only 13 trucks with which to fight fires in Kabul, a city with more than 4 million residents. He adds that all of the trucks are old and unreliable. Maybe, he says, we should call this the Kabul fire museum instead of the Kabul fire department. Yet his boss says the Kabul station is one of the lucky ones. At least it has fire trucks, says Gen. Amanullah, who runs Afghanistan's 950-man fire department. Amanullah, who like many Afghans uses just one name, says most towns and provinces don't have a fire station because there aren't enough fire engines to go around — only 53 for the entire country. He says there were 12 times as many trucks three decades ago, before war and looting decimated the agency's fleet. But he and other Afghan fire officials say the need for a robust fire department is much greater now than it was back then. Construction is booming across Afghanistan, much of it without any thought given to fire codes or other safety standards. "We are upset, but it's out of our hands. We are waiting for help from our international friends. We've even begged the Afghan Interior Ministry to give us money so that we can buy the trucks ourselves. But for two years, no one has given us anything but promises," Amanullah says.  Searching For International Help  Kazem, the Kabul fire chief, says his men have gotten some new things, such as helmets and fire coats. But he and Amanullah say what they need more are firetrucks. U.S. Brig Gen. Walter Givhan says he understands their frustration. He heads the combined air power transition force in the country, which has trained and equipped the Afghan military's firefighters. "We are building capacity as quickly as we can, and naturally the security part of this has been a priority for some time," Givhan explains.  Now, he says, there is an emphasis on broadening that focus to bring the same kind of progress to other areas, including the national fire department. Recently, Kazem and nine of his firefighters were invited to train on one of 32 new American firetrucks bought for the national fire department, but which Afghan officials say have been sitting at an American base on the east side of town for months. Neither the military nor the U.S. Embassy could say why the fire engines are still at the base. But Afghan officials claim it's because they and the Americans can't agree on where the new fire engines should go. Nor can the Afghans agree among themselves. During the training session, a debate erupts between the Kabul fire chief and his counterpart in the Afghan military, who claims the new trucks should go to the air corps — never mind that the military firefighters have had new firetrucks for months. JACKI LYDEN, host:  No institution in Afghanistan gets more Western attention than that country's security forces. The U.S. and other countries are spending billions of dollars to refurbish the Afghan army and police, providing them with expensive training, weapons and vehicles, even aircraft.

Question: Tarahumaras, Known For Running Great Distances, Are Facing A Food Crisis

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

This week, reports have started to filter out of the remote northern mountains of Mexico that the Tarahumara indians are facing hunger. The indians were immortalized by the book Born To Run, in which writer Christopher McDougall paints a portrait of a proud tribe that thrives on long distance running — a tribe that with little  in their stomachs and even less on their feet, puts to shame even the best American ultra-marathoners. But according to MSNBC, the Tarahumaras are suffering because of a long drought and record cold. There were even reports that some of the indians had committed suicide out of desperation, but those reports were unfounded. Here's how Rev. Guadalupe Gasca, a Jesuit priest in the town of Creel, Chihuahua described it to MSNBC, yesterday:  "The Indians, whose life is a constant struggle to wring food out of scraggly corn plots on steep mountain slopes, don't give up easily. "'We (Jesuits) have a history of almost 400 years working in this area, and we can say that in the Tarahumaras' world view, suicide is not an option.' But Gasca notes that in 2011, his clinic did treat 250 Tarahumara children for malnutrition, including 25 severe cases. One 3-year-old girl died of it. "Gasca also blames the food crisis on the drought and cold. 'There has always been hunger in these hills,' Gasca said. 'There have always been climate cycles, but these cycles are getting more frequent and more severe.'  The extent of the food crisis in north central Mexico is not exactly known. A muti-party coalition of senators told El Mexicano today that while it's "worrisome," there is "in no way a food crisis, nor a lack of food in the country." But, as Fox News Latino reports, the Red Cross is considering the situation a food emergency. "Last year, the Red Cross made two expeditions into the mountains to bring food, but this year there will be three, the latest delivery consisting of 270 metric tons of food and 5,000 blankets. The government says it has also sent millions of dollars in aid," Fox reports. Milenio, a TV news station in Mexico, reports that there are food needs in the northern mountains, and Tarahumara leaders and others are staging a caravan to Mexico City to ask for federal aid. Yako Rodríguez, of the Tarahumara tribe, said there have recently been four deaths due to the cold and hunger.

Question: The Bigger The Mother Fish, The More Babies She Has

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

When it comes to motherhood, at least if you're a fish, big is better. Bigger fish produce more far more offspring pound for pound than smaller fish. And that can mean more on your plate. The new research comes from a team in Australia and Panama and reinforces fishing practices that protect larger fish as well as marine protected areas, which are like fish "sanctuaries" in the ocean. The researchers set out to see how much of an advantage size was in having babies. "So we went and gathered every bit of data we could for every kind of fish that grew in the ocean," says biologist Dustin Marshall of Monash University. (Well, not every kind, but 342 species.) It's been known that for some fish species, being a bigger female means you'll have more eggs — a lot more eggs. But the surprising thing that Marshall's team found was that bigger fish produce "massively more offspring and larger offspring than smaller fish," Marshall says. As fish grew larger, female fertility grew even faster. For example, take a 60-pound fish and compare it with a 4-pound fish. It's 15 times as big. But it produces 28 times the amount of eggs as the smaller one. Marshall published the study in the journal Science. He says it's a reminder that protecting bigger females is a good way to keep fish stocks plentiful. And that catching too many big ones will deplete the overall population. "If we actually think about maintaining these big fish we can actually get far more production than we currently have now," he says. He found that this relationship between size and high fertility shows up in 95 percent of the fish species he studied. He credits Canadian biologist Tara Marshall (who is not related) of the University of Aberdeen with some of the earliest research on this phenomenon. "We're all kind of aware of it," she says of fisheries biologists. "But what's new about this paper is that it's just taking a step backward and sort of looking at it at a broader scale." Tara Marshall says people who manage fish stocks, as well as the commercial fishing industry, do appreciate the value of keeping plenty of big females in a fish population. "I think it's interesting in that it's a cross-species sweep ... they secured data for 342 species." Both researchers note that this "bigger is better" principle in reproduction could reinforce the importance of marine protected areas, where fishing is limited or banned. And where it's been shown that fish live longer and larger. MARY LOUISE KELLY, HOST:  When it comes to motherhood, bigger is better, at least if you're a fish. It turns out bigger fish produce more offspring than smaller ones. A group of scientists has now shown that the advantage of being big is even bigger than people had realized. As NPR's Christopher Joyce reports, the finding could help keep lots of fish in the oceans. CHRISTOPHER JOYCE, BYLINE: Scientists know that for some fish species, being a bigger female means you'll have more eggs - a lot more eggs. Biologist Dustin Marshall wondered how common that was. DUSTIN MARSHALL: So we went and gathered every bit of data we could for every fish we could find that grew in the ocean. JOYCE: About 342 species of fish. They studied how many eggs they have and how many babies, and they found something interesting. D. MARSHALL: The bigger fish produced massively more offspring and larger offspring than smaller fish. JOYCE: What was surprising to Marshall was that as fish grew larger, female fertility grew even faster. So compare a 60-pound fish, for example, with a 4-pound fish. It's 15 times as massive, but it produces 28 times the amount of eggs as the smaller one. Marshall published the study in the journal Science. He says it's a reminder that protecting bigger females is a good way to keep fish stocks plentiful and that catching too many big ones will deplete the overall population. D. MARSHALL: If we actually think about maintaining these big fish, we can actually get far more production than we currently have now. JOYCE: Marshall, who's at Monash University in Australia, says this relationship between size and high fertility shows up in 95 percent of the fish species he studied. He credits Canadian biologist Tara Marshall, who's not related, with some of the earliest research on this phenomenon. TARA MARSHALL: We're all kind of aware of it. But what's new about this paper is that it's just taking a step backward and sort of looking at it at a broader scale. JOYCE: She studies fisheries at the University of Aberdeen in Scotland. Marshall says people who manage fish stocks as well as the commercial fishing industry do appreciate the value of size in females. Both researchers note that this bigger-is-better principle in reproduction could reinforce the importance of marine protected areas. These are sort of sanctuaries for fish where fishing is limited or banned and where fish live longer and larger. Christopher Joyce, NPR News.

Question: Rep. Yvette Clarke: Embracing a Diverse District

Freshman United States Rep. Yvette Clarke (D-NY) talks to Steve Inskeep about the current crop of Democrats, and what she is looking to deliver for the constituents of her urban district in the New York City borough of Brooklyn. Like many lawmakers, she represents a district heavily weighted toward her political party. The following is an edited version of their conversation: What's it like looking around the room at the Democrats' freshman class? We definitely span the [political] spectrum. But I think that you'll find that in any party. You'll find those who are to the extremes of the right and the left on both sides of the aisle. Are you comfortable with the "liberal" label? I guess so. It's all relative. I would put myself towards left of center. What's your district like? It's very diverse. We have extreme wealth, abject poverty. We have every major religion. Certainly it's a unique blend of longtime stakeholders and new Americans, many immigrants. It's very diverse. What will you be seeking from Congress for your district? There are real issues around housing, and the pressures in the housing market. The pressure that has mounted to create opportunities for affordable housing is at an all-time high right now. There has been this stalemate [in Congress] around Section 8 [housing subsidies], which, in an urban area like mine, has been sort of the first rung on the ladder for many in the working class and working poor to get their foothold in the housing market. I know that if we have an opportunity, and I know we will, there will be a lot of conversation about this. Because it's not only New York City, it's places like Washington, D.C., and other urban areas [that need increased Section 8 assistance].  Does a balanced budget fit with your calls for more housing assistance? I'm sure we'll have to have discussions along the way [about balancing budgets]. We want to make sure we create as many win-win scenarios as possible. And we want to be fiscally responsible. I don't think the two are mutually exclusive. Do blacks still feel at home in the Democratic Party? I think that there... certainly have been challenges along the way, that need to be addressed head on. I'd like to think that we have a new day, a new moment and a new hour. And I can say that, certainly, I'm bringing my unique chemistry to this body. And I will be very vocal in letting folks know when they're stepping on my corns! Are you expecting the Democratic Party to deliver on your concerns? I think that it only makes us a better party when we deliver better things, when we include everyone in the deliberation, and that their voice is a part of the chorus.

Question: 'So Many People Depend On Us': The Virgin Islands Rebuild

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

When Hurricane Irma's high winds ripped through the Virgin Islands, the islands' radio and television stations were among the first casualties. Tanya Marie-Singh, who heads Virgin Islands Public Broadcasting, says her staff shut down their television and radio signals a few hours before the storm hit. It was nearly two and half weeks before they could get WTJX-FM, a public station that carries NPR, back on the air. Their radio and television studios in St. Thomas were destroyed. Walking around the shredded metal building, it looks like a bomb went off. The walls are gone, debris litters the site. Only the building's steel girder frame looks intact. There was also significant damage to WTJX's antennas, located on the top of one of St. Thomas' mountains. "You couldn't get to our transmitter facility. The roads were impassable," Singh says. "When you did get to it, it was a mess." The station's 100-foot auxiliary tower toppled in the storm. The main tower survived, but WTJX's antennas and satellite dish — its connection with NPR programming — were damaged. With some makeshift repairs and power from emergency generators, the station got back on the air with NPR programming. "During a storm, radio is king," Singh says. "Radio is always king in the Virgin Islands anyway, so it was total royalty." The fixes were temporary. The most critical need was a new satellite dish for its FM signal. Singh says, "Our public needed NPR because there was no Internet, no cable. Right after the storm there was no communication. We had a lot of local stations doing local programming, which was needed. But people wanted to know what was going on in the world around them." WTJX is also a PBS member station. Shortly after the storm, Singh says she got a call from PBS CEO Paula Kerger asking how she could help. Singer told Kerger her most urgent need was to get back on the air with NPR. By that time, staff with the Public Radio Satellite System had already started contacting client stations in areas hit by the storm, including Puerto Rico and in the Virgin Islands, WTJX. "We started calling tower companies around Florida," explains Mike Beach, with NPR Distribution, which manages the system. They found a dish and a crew who could install it. The dish was installed in mid-December. Until full power was restored in January, WTJX's transmitter was powered by emergency generators. Singh says while the station was down and since returning to the air, she's been surprised by the calls she's been receiving from listeners outside the Virgin Islands. "I'm getting calls from Vieques and Puerto Rico. They're like, 'We're so glad you're back on,' " Singh says. "And they're contributing." The Virgin Islands and other nearby islands, including Culebra and Tortola, are home to many from the mainland U.S. who spend winters there. "They're part of our community," Singh says. "They account for a lot of our listenership. We have a lot of local people accounting for the balance." Now, the challenge is rebuilding the station's studios on St. Thomas. Singh hopes through a combination of FEMA funding and contributions, WTJX can build a new facility on top of Haypiece Hill in St. Thomas, one she says with "heavy redundancies." "I want to rebuild so we're not down during the storm, so we're not coming up after the storm, so there's no time when we're not a beacon of information for our community," Singh says. "Especially now that we know so many people depend on us."

Question: Starchy Wild Plants Added Carbs To Ancient Man's Meaty Diet

Here's a 30,000-year-old recipe: Dig up cattails.  Remove starchy  roots and rhizomes.  Peel outer layer, dry, and grind into flour with two  rocks.  Mix with water and cook. Bon  appetit! Read More The Paleolithic diet, it turns  out, may have consisted of more than just meat and berries.  At  three sites in Italy,  Russia and the Czech Republic, scientists have discovered tools that would make a Stone Age Crate and Barrel manager burst with pride: Mortars and pestles for grinding grains. The mortars are flat stones, while the  pestles are pointed and shaped to fit the hand.  They all show wear from  grinding, as well as microscopic bits of "flour" embedded in them.  The flour  appears to have been ground from the starchiest, underground  parts of cattails, ferns and other plants. Anthropologists have assumed that  early humans supplemented their meaty, protein-heavy diet with nutrients from plants.  Plant starches are energy-rich carbohydrates, but aren't exactly "ready-to-eat."  The latest discovery confirms that humans as far back as 30,000 years had  figured out how to "process" some of those starches before consuming them. Writing in the journal  Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the scientists suggest that the  flour ground in the mortar and pestle would eventually have been cooked.  Raw starch is pretty hard to stomach  and doesn't offer much nutrition until the tough grains are broken  down by heat. (See Harvard primatologist Richard Wrangham's book Catching Fire: How Cooking Made Us Human for more on this.) In terms of the energy it  provided, the cattail flour is pretty similar to Emmer wheat (known as farro in Italy). It's been a staple of European  cooking for millennia that's believed to have fed the marching Roman legions. As for taste, the researchers didn't report results.  But without yeast  or sugar or even salt, chances are cattail bread wasn't terribly tasty. But  memorable?  Well, we're still writing about it.

Question: It's ScuttleButton Time!

President Obama says that while this week's ScuttleButton may be somewhat imperfect, and not especially clever, "it's better than no ScuttleButton at all." And he urges everyone to solve the puzzle, including Nebraska's Ben Nelson. We agree. But first, as always, you need to know how to play the game. Every Friday on this blog, there are buttons displayed vertically. Simply take one word (or concept) per button, add 'em up, and, hopefully, you will arrive at a famous name or a familiar expression. (And seriously, by familiar, I mean it's something that more than one person on Earth would recognize.) And don't focus on a political answer. It doesn't necessarily have to be political, though it could be. Also, a reminder: when more than one button is arranged horizontally, it indicates that I'm looking for an answer in the plural. A correct answer chosen at random gets his or her name in this column. Personally, I can't imagine a greater honor. You can't use the comments box at the bottom of the page for your answer.

Question: First Listen: The Notwist, 'Close To The Glass'

On paper, the German electro-pop band The Notwist sounds less accessible than it is: Since getting together 25 years ago, its members have delved into everything from hardcore to underground hip-hop to proggy jazz, with many varyingly arty detours in between. But the latter half of its history, particularly once you hit the sublime early-'00s breakthrough Neon Golden, is wonderfully warm and approachable. Bathed in charming, clattering, crackling electronics, Markus Acher's softly accented vocals land like late-night affirmations from a trusted friend. The Notwist's members dabble extensively in remixes and side projects — and have been known to scrap recordings midway through — so the band tends to take its time between albums. Nearly six years have breezed by since the release of The Devil, You + Me. But, if the new Close to the Glass is any indication, The Notwist sounds fully refreshed: From its corker of a single ("Kong") on, the album showcases a light touch in a frequently collage-based sound that brims over with buzzing, springy, playful urgency. Throughout Close to the Glass, The Notwist lets many sides of its sound peek out, as straightforward pop-rock melts together with the pulse of Krautrock until they become indistinguishable. But, like its most recent predecessors, the album never feels chilly, even when the band wanders through a nine-minute instrumental ("Lineri") late in the proceedings. Even then, no matter how many machines manipulate The Notwist's sound, they never drown out the human heartbeats at its center.

Question: Trent Reznor: 'I'm Not The Same Person I Was 20 Years Ago'

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

Trent Reznor is known as a detail guy: a meticulous composer and manipulator of sound, layers upon layers of it. From his band's genesis 25 years ago, the leader of Nine Inch Nails has been known for songs of deep, menacing pain, rage and self-destruction. Today, Reznor's dark days of alcohol and drug abuse are behind him — and he finds himself, at 48, with a wife and two young kids. The new Nine Inch Nails album, Hesitation Marks, ends a hiatus that Reznor announced in 2009 — and, as he tells NPR's Melissa Block, he sees the new record in part as a reaction to his earlier self. He recently spoke with Block about reacting to criticism, working with Lindsey Buckingham and the reasons he thinks opening for Guns N' Roses in Germany was a big mistake. Hear the radio version at the audio link, and read more of their conversation below. I'm thinking about your new song "Everything," which starts with this really kind of triumphant declaration? What's the first line of that song? "I survived everything." I think? I haven't listened to it for a few days. It absolutely is. And in the course of the song you say, "I've become something else." Yeah, I meant that song to feel kind of absurd. You know, it's an arrogant, bold statement that might appear defiant but is actually, in my opinion, kind of self-destructive. And by the end of the song, when it doesn't resolve as nice and rosy with me running through a field of dandelions, clouds come over and there's a sense of getting what you asked for. My life has been many examples of shortsighted goals that I thought would fix things. If there's something broken inside me, if there's a hole in there, I thought if I could just write a good song someday, then I'd be OK. You know, if I could just get a record deal, or if I could just be onstage in front of people I'd never seen before and be validated by them. I feel very fortunate that I've been able to achieve those things, and there have been moments of feeling good about it, but it didn't fix things, you know? It wasn't the solution to me feeling spiritually complete or whole. This song does start out in such a sunny way, with all these joyful harmonies. I'm sure you know there was a disgruntled fan who thought this was entirely too poppy — maybe a softer, happier side of Trent Reznor — and put together an animated video of you riding a unicorn under a rainbow with birds flying by. You're saying, though, that's ignoring what's really going on in this song? That certainly wasn't anything that crossed my mind when I was working on this. You know, I still think in terms of album formats: collections of songs and how they relate to each other and how they integrate and tell a bigger story than what's contained in each little four-minute parcel. But when you've been around for a while and you've created, essentially, a brand, that has a certain level of expectation. And it encourages you to not color outside the lines if you pay too much attention to what you expect that fan base wants from you. I think many, many artists have suffered an artistic death by doing just that. I think we live in very dangerous times right now with the Internet and the feedback loop you can get from people who somehow feel their fingers are connected to an impulse — first second of hearing something, I need to write some reaction that gets blasted out to the world. What did you think of the video? I saw about the first five seconds of it, and it lessened my faith that I am reaching an audience that is open-minded enough to understand what I'm trying to do. That's what I thought off the bat. And then I thought, "I really don't care what you think." We wouldn't be sitting here doing an interview, because my career would have been over 24 years ago, if I'd have listened to what I think people want to hear from me. [But] this is just my off-the-cuff thesis here. I'm sure it's riddled with holes that I'll be reminded of on the Internet any minute now. If you choose to read it. When we started out, you would get feedback from fan mail, if you dared to read it. And I remember early versions of [online] bulletin boards, where it was exciting to see that somewhere, digitally, people were talking about your band in little chat rooms and things like that. When we got up to whenever Twitter came out, I took it upon myself to try to direct market to people. Myself, Rob Sheridan — my art director and collaborator on pretty much everything creative — we spent an enormous amount of time really studying the behavior of people: how people wanted to consume music, how they learned about music, what formats they liked, what felt insincere to them, what they felt the value of music might be. Really just watching. But it tuned us in to that feedback loop of commentary, and you can easily go down rabbit holes with niches of people that are unpleasable, regardless of what you could possibly do as an artist. My brain is wired to follow the negative down there and try to eng

The area is divided between India and Pakistan. Separatist conflict there has claimed about 45,000 lives since the 1980s. Pakistan is helping the United States negotiate with the Afghan Taliban over the safety of American troops and a schedule for their withdrawal from Afghanistan. Although talks are ongoing, the violence hasn’t stopped. A suicide bombing at a Kabul police station killed 14 people and injured 145 others on Wednesday. The New York Times reported on the bombing’s aftermath, saying “even heavily populated urban centers like Kabul feel like battlegrounds in a war that lost clear front lines long ago.”  Outside the police station, a man asked an officer about his son, who he said had been locked up inside. The officer told him to go look among the wounded or dead at hospitals. As a crowd gathered, the father said he had searched the hospitals first. As if numbed by the frequency of such violence, the officer tried to shrug it off, telling the man that perhaps his son was bad, and that whatever his fate had been in the explosion was his punishment. The crowd laughed. The distressed father, crying, rushed to look for his son elsewhere.  In Hong Kong protests have reached their 10th consecutive week. Hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong citizens have taken to the streets. Sparked by an anti-extradition bill that Hong Kong leader Carrie Lam walked back, the demonstrations have evolved into expressions of anger toward Beijing. There have also been sporadic pro-government protests. Meanwhile, the United States designated China a currency manipulator, signaling a new front in an ongoing trade war. Bloomberg’s Shawn Donnan told us this week that the president’s views on trade with China haven’t changed since the 1980s. He’s willing to use tariffs, whereas other presidents have not been willing to impose them. And the Brookings Institution’s David Dollar says “market forces are pushing China’s currency down,” not currency manipulation by Beijing. And at least seven Mexican citizens were among the dead at a shooting at a Walmart, in El Paso, Texas. Countries around the globe warned their citizens about the danger of mass shootings in the United States, and the Mexican government is considering legal action against the U.S. From Vox:  We consider this an act of terrorism against the Mexican-American community and Mexican nationals in the United States,” Mexican Foreign Minister Marcelo Ebrard said Sunday at a press conference. “Mexico is outraged. But we aren’t proposing to meet hate with hate. We will act with reason and according to the law and with firmness.” Mexico has said it will increase protections for its citizens in the United States and has also threatened to take legal action — including potentially filing a lawsuit against the seller of the assault weapon used in the attack and possibly seeking the extradition of the 21-year-old suspected shooter on terrorism charges. Experts I spoke to say it’s unlikely Mexico would triumph if it chose to pursue extradition. But as mounting evidence suggests this was a racially motivated attack, the Mexican government may have reason to at least attempt it and put even a little pressure on the United States.  We wrap up all that news and more on the global edition of the Roundup.

In the surprise testimony, Abu Ghaith recalled a conversation with bin Laden in a cave in Afghanistan after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. "Did you learn what happened? We are the ones who did it," Ghaith recalled, through an Arabic interpreter, his infamous father-in-law asking. When bin Laden asked Abu Ghaith what he thought would happen next, he responded that he predicted America "will not settle until it kills you and topples the state of Taliban." "You\'re being too pessimistic," Abu Ghaith quoted bin Laden as replying. Bin Laden then told the onetime imam, "I want to deliver a message to the world. ... I want you to deliver the message," he said. Abu Ghaith, 48, went on trial in Manhattan federal court on March 5. He says he tried to refuse the assignment to be al-Qaida\'s spokesman. He says he asked bin Laden to "kindly spare me this mission." The decision by Abu Ghaith, who is accused of conspiring to kill Americans and aiding al-Qaida, to take the witness stand was announced by his lawyer, Stanley Cohen. The announcement was a surprise and the nearly empty courtroom quickly filled with spectators as word spread, according to The Associated Press. The AP writes:  "Abu Ghaith said he knew bin Laden was suspected in terrorist attacks but still \'wanted to get to know that person.\' "I wanted to see what he had, what is it he wanted,\' he said." "The defendant testified that videos he made warning that there would be more attacks on Americans and trying to inspire others to join al-Qaida\'s cause were based on \'quotes and points by Sheik Osama,\' including at threat in one video that \'the storm of airplanes will not abate.\' He also denied allegations by the government that he had prior knowledge of the failed shoe-bomb airline attack by Richard Reid in December 2001."']' != '['Represent the subtitle to find a news title on NPR with less details', "Stories: 1) Lawrence Wright: Bin Laden's Death 'Long In Coming' 2) How Some Made Millions Betting Against The Market"]'

Question: 5 Defining Moments In The U.S.-Cuba Relationship

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

1. Obama, Raul Castro Announce Normalization Of Relations President Obama said Wednesday the U.S. and Cuba will normalize relations, which have been strained since being severed in 1961. He spoke to Cuban President Raul Castro on Tuesday to finalize details of the announcement. 2. A Handshake In South Africa Tuesday's talk wasn't the first conversation between the two men. They spoke publicly last December at a memorial service for former South African President Nelson Mandela. Castro's brother Fidel, the former Cuban president, said the current Cuban leader introduced himself to Obama in English, telling him, "Mr. President, I'm Castro." The two leaders then shook hands — reportedly only the second time leaders of the two countries had shaken hands over the past half-century. As NPR's Greg Myre noted, the handshake caused a "diplomatic stir." 3. The Elian Gonzalez Saga One of the biggest stories in U.S.-Cuba relations prior to that handshake was Elian Gonzalez. The then-6-year-old Cuban boy was rescued off the coast of Florida where his mother and others had died trying to reach the U.S. His U.S.-based relatives tried to keep him in the country, but his father in Cuba wanted him back. The legal battle went to the U.S. Supreme Court, which rejected an appeal from Elian's Miami relatives. Government officials seized the boy on April 22, 2000, and he was returned to Cuba, where he still lives. 4. The Mariel Boatlift On April 20, 1980, Fidel Castro declared the port of Mariel open, allowing any Cuban who wished to leave to go to the U.S. More than 100,000 did. But some of them were spies; others were newly released from Cuba's prisons and mental institutions. The Mariel boatlift, as it came to be known, led the U.S. to tighten its restrictions on Cuba. 5. Neighbors Fidel Castro and his communist rebels, who included his brother Raul, ousted Cuban dictator Fulgencio Batista in 1959. For nearly two years after that, the U.S. and Cuba maintained relations. Fidel Castro visited the U.S. — and even met with then-Vice President Richard Nixon. For more than 50 years, the prospect of another Castro visit to Washington seemed unthinkable. Today, White House spokesman Josh Earnest said he "wouldn't rule out a visit from President [Raul] Castro."

For instance, <<['Represent this text to find its title about the same news but with slightly less depth', 'When he was in Vietnam, Isaac Oxereok\'s small build made him ideal for tunnel-ratting: running with a pistol and a flashlight into underground passages built by the Viet Cong. In 1967 he finished his tour with the Army and returned home to Wales, Alaska. Oxereok knew he wasn\'t quite right, but there wasn\'t anyone around to tell him how to get help. "Post-traumatic syndrome?" he said. "I went through that I guess, mostly on my own. Some wounds never really show. So inside was kind of messed up." Now Oxereok is 69 years old and living at the edge of the Bering Strait in a village of about 150 people. On a recent clear day, the Russian mainland peeked on the horizon over just 50 miles of broken spring ice. Oxereok snowmobiled over to the community center when he heard that someone from the Department of Veterans Affairs was visiting. He had no idea what benefits he might be owed. "The fact that Isaac doesn\'t know about this? That\'s why we\'re here," said Tommy Sowers, the VA\'s assistant secretary for Public and Intergovernmental Affairs. Sowers visited Alaska recently to look at what challenges rural veterans face in getting benefits, but it turns out that just finding them can be a challenge. Twenty-two million Americans served in the military, but the vast majority are from the Vietnam and Korea generations. They\'re getting older now, and many live in rural, sometimes remote areas. Alaska has the highest number of veterans per capita in the country — native Alaskans and other vets who got posted up here and never left. "Once you get Alaska in your blood, it\'s hard to get it out," says Ron Huffman, originally from Virginia, now living in Nome. The Air Force sent Huffman here in 1963. Then he met a local woman and got married. He and his wife still return to her tiny village each summer, where they fish enough salmon to last through the winter. He volunteers as a tribal veterans representative — a liaison between the VA and local veterans. "Most of these vets, they\'ve never applied for any type of entitlement whatsoever," Huffman said. "And a lot of them are at the age now that they\'re suffering with some pretty severe-type ailments. It would be very beneficial for them to try to get connected with" the VA. But getting connected up here isn\'t easy. And though it would seem pretty basic, the VA has no master list of who served. That means someone has to go find them, a point demonstrated by the delegation from Washington, D.C. "We live in a country where people get to choose where they want to live," Sowers said. "And, you know, once they raise their hand, volunteer and serve, we\'ve got that obligation." Sowers and other officials flew from Anchorage to Nome and then on a one-prop plane up to a snowy runway in Wales. The local veterans representative, Sean Komonaseak, met the visitors at the plane on his snowmobile, wearing a parka fringed with polar bear fur. Komonaseak allows that the town is pretty small. "On a good day about 150 people. As far as government organizations, there\'s hardly any representation," he said. Komonaseak had advertised a meeting for the many veterans and their family members, including a free lunch with fresh fruit and whale meat. By midafternoon, about a dozen veterans, family members and kids had turned out for the meeting, and Sowers introduced himself as a VA official and a former Green Beret with two tours in Iraq. "How many here are veterans? Raise your hand if you\'re a veteran," he said. But even that turns out to be a complicated question. Some of them were in the Alaska National Guard — and not all guard members qualify for VA. Others asked what benefits they might be able to still get from an uncle or a father who has passed away — survivors\' pensions pass to a spouse but not usually to older children. Many say they\'ve maybe filled out forms in the past but aren\'t sure they filled them in properly, or mailed them, or ever heard that the VA got the papers. Sowers knows the VA is battling a reputation for red tape and backlog. "Now, the process is not a quick process. ... But the clock starts the moment we get that form in," he said. Sowers knows he\'s only adding to the backlog by bringing these veterans in from the cold, but that\'s his job. The country owes these veterans, he said, whether it\'s a home loan or health care or a pension. But even after traveling 4,000 miles to the opposite edge of the continent, Sowers finds that some of the vets in town don\'t want to be found. "Alaska has the highest proportion of veterans that serve," Sowers said. "And in these tribal communities they have an incredibly high percent of folks that served. But even here in a town of 152 people, when we had a veterans gathering, not all of the veterans showed." A couple of hours into the meeting, people started to get restless. Sowers had registered a few vets and asked folks to go out and tell the other veterans in town to get in touch. "I asked people here can we get email addresses," he said.

The shelling on Beit Hanoun came less than 24 hours after Israeli forces ended a ground offensive in the area.  Israeli officials voiced regret for the civilian casualties, and said the artillery fire was aimed at Palestinian rocket launchers. Several militant groups in Gaza vow to retaliate with suicide bombings.  Witnesses and medical officials in Gaza say Israeli artillery shells struck a residential area near Beit Hanoun in the early morning hours, while many people were still asleep. The Palestinian health ministry says all of those killed were from the el Atamla family, including eight children and four women. 50 others were wounded, including 26 children.  Nearly 300 Palestinians, about half of them armed militants, have been killed in Gaza since Israel launched a series of operations in late June after militants attacked an Israeli border post. The attackers killed two soldiers and captured 20-year-old Israeli Army Cpl. Gilad Shalit. Militant cells in Gaza have launched more than 800 makeshift rockets at Israel in 2006. The rockets have damaged property and caused some injuries. No Israelis have been killed this year by the Gaza rocket fire. Responding to the Palestinian deaths, Israeli government spokeswoman Miri Eisen says the country's army has suspended artillery fire into Gaza while it investigates what she called a tragedy.
