Question: Thousands Hit By Crash Blossoms!

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

Yes, I'm probably slightly obsessed by the vicissitudes of headline writing. But I'm not the only one! A great piece on ABC's website points out that there is truth in even the trashiest tabloid headline -- it just takes a little critical thought (in the supermarket line!) to figure it out. Here's one of the most egregious true -- and yet false -- headlines:  Thousands to Die After Swine Flu Vaccination   Many public health authorities privately fear that there will be many heart attacks among older people and miscarriages among pregnant women occurring soon after these people are inoculated with the H1N1 vaccine.  Headline, explained:  The claims in this story are entirely true, but shouldn't be surprising or alarming. Annually there are approximately 1 million heart attacks and 1 million miscarriages in this country. Let's assume there will be 100 million or more people inoculated against the H1N1 flu over a six-month period.   Then, since there are almost 3,000 heart attacks and 3,000 miscarriages daily and there will be at least 200 times that many flu shots daily, it is a certainty that there will be very many people who will have a heart attack or miscarriage shortly after receiving the shot.   How many and how soon depends on further assumptions, but nobody should attribute the medical crises to the shots unless there's real evidence.  There's a reason that tabloids don't get sued for every headline. However, now I need to figure out if aliens really did eat Elvis' baby.

Question: Soccer Team Bus Bombing Was Part Of Stock Option Plot, German Prosecutors Say

German federal prosecutors say the bombing of a soccer team's bus in Dortmund, Germany, was carried out by a man apparently attempting to manipulate the team's stock for profit. The 28-year-old man has been arrested and charged with attempted murder, among other things. Three explosions went off near the Borussia Dortmund team bus on April 11, as it was pulling out of the hotel where the players were staying. One player was injured and needed surgery on his wrist. Authorities say letters claiming responsibility for the blasts — and identifying the motivation as Islamic or right-wing extremism — appear to be specious. Instead they say a man with German and Russian citizenship, identified only as Sergej W., planted the bombs, apparently to make money. On April 11, before the blast, the suspect purchased a "put option" that allowed him to make a profit if Borussia Dortmund's stock value fell. Put options are like short selling — the more value the stock lost, the more money he would make. The Guardian notes Borussia Dortmund is the only professional soccer team in Germany that's listed on the stock market. Most pro sports teams worldwide are privately owned. The accused man was staying in the same hotel as the Borussia Dortmund team, the German federal prosecutor's office said. He'd booked rooms at the hotel for two time periods, both of which spanned match days. When he arrived on April 9, he is said to have switched rooms to choose one with a view of the location of the attack. Prosecutors accused Sergej W. of using an unknown explosive to target the bus. If players had been seriously injured or killed, a "significant drop" in the team's stock price would be expected, the prosecutor's office says. Instead, Bloomberg writes, the stock held steady. The options that the suspect purchased "give the right to sell Borussia Dortmund shares at 5.20 euros," the financial news site writes, and his investment would pay off only if the value fell markedly below that. "The shares closed at 5.61 euros that afternoon, shortly before the attack took place, and fell as low as 5.50 euros the next day," Bloomberg reports. "The stock hasn't traded below 5.20 euros since February." Prosecutors say three letters were found at the site of the blast, each claiming responsibility for the attack and citing radical Islamist motivations. Islamic scholars have examined the letters and there is "considerable doubt" that they're of radical Islamist origin, prosecutors say. A right-wing extremist letter claiming responsibility for the attacks was sent to the press after the bombing, prosecutors say. They say it was filled with "contradictions and inconsistencies" and that there's "no indication" it was sent by the suspect.

"A body believed to be that of Michael Scott, the president of the Chicago Board of Education, was found in the Chicago River near the Merchandise Mart this morning," police tell the Chicago Tribune. Chicago's CBS2 reports that Scott's family called police yesterday to say he was missing. The Tribune says Scott's car was found near the scene. Update at 3:10 p.m. ET: NPR's David Schaper in Chicago reports he's been told by the Cook County Medical Examiner's office that Scott's death has been ruled a suicide. He died of a gunshot wound to the head, the ME says. Update at 2:05 p.m. ET: We've updated the headline on this post to simply say that Scott has died, because the Associated Press now reports that his family has released a statement saying they appreciate the support they've received in the wake of his death. The statement also says arrangements for a public memorial service will be announced soon. Update at 12:45 p.m. ET. From Chicago, NPR's David Schaper reports that:  Arne Duncan, who before becoming U.S. Education Secretary was chief of the Chicago schools system, says he is shocked and saddened by the apparent death of his friend. Scott was himself a product of the Chicago Public Schools, growing up in the impoverished North Lawndale neighborhood on the city's west side. In a statement, Duncan says Chicago has lost a great leader, and the city's school children have lost a devoted champion.  Update at 11:30 a.m. ET: Both the Tribune and the Sun-Times are now reporting that police continue to say the body is that of Scott, and that they now believe he had suffered a gunshot wound to the head.

Question: China's Xi Is Elevated To New Level, With Echoes Of Mao

Using language not heard since the Mao Zedong era, the Communist Party of China has adopted Xi Jinping's ideas for Chinese socialism, embracing its president anew and adding his "thoughts" to the party constitution. The party added a section with the formal title "Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era" on Tuesday, as it winds down the congress it holds every five years. The amendment "juxtaposes Xi's thought with Marxism-Leninism, Mao Zedong Thought, Deng Xiaoping Theory, the Theory of Three Represents, and the Scientific Outlook on Development," Chinese state Xinhua media reports. Of those other theories, we'll note, only one shares the word "thought" with Xi: Mao Zedong Thought, known to many outside of China as simply "Maoism." From Beijing, NPR's Anthony Kuhn reports:  "The congress approved writing Xi Jinping's theories into the party's charter, which was largely expected. At the congress, Xi declared a new era for Chinese-style socialism, in which the communist party is in charge of everything. "Our party's leadership and our nation's socialist system are strong, solid and vigorous," Xi proclaimed to the congress's delegates. "Tomorrow, the party will unveil a new leadership lineup. Xi is all but assured of getting a second, five-year term as the party's general secretary."  If he returns as expected, Xi, 64, would turn 68 while in office — putting him outside of China's norm of not allowing leaders who are older than 67 to hold power. Many have been watching to see how Xi handles the age convention as it applies not only to himself but to his allies and aides. Under the age norm, several members of China's Politburo Standing Committee are due to retire before the new lineup is formed that will lead the party — and country — for the next five years. The big event brought an expansive treatment by Xinhua, which cast Xi's enshrinement in party doctrine against a broad historical backdrop. From the Chinese outlet:  "Experts widely believe the development of socialism in China shows theoretical innovations by the Chinese leadership will not only help the country avoid history's cycle of rising and falling and the 'Tacitus Trap,' but offer an alternative answer to such predictions as the 'end of history,' by Francis Fukuyama, who argued for the inevitable triumph of Western liberal democracy."  The "Tacitus Trap" has been a recurrent theme in China in recent years, often mentioned in conversations about maintaining the government's credibility — particularly in the digital age. On the Web, all of the top Google results for the term refer to its use in China. Tacitus was invoked on a wide scale as far back as 2012, when China Daily reported, "'Tacitus Trap' warns any leaders in power that when a government loses credibility, whether it tells the truth or a lie, to do good or bad, will be considered a lie, or to do bad." In that piece, China Daily cited "Publius Gornelius Tacitus" — a typo that has lived on in China, as British ancient history professor Neville Morley notes. Writing about the phenomenon, Morley adds, "And of course no one has ever heard of the Tacitus Trap." Morley has added several updates to his original post about the term, which has opened discussions about its authenticity and validity. But the professor concludes, "Long live the Tacitus Trap!" — and here's why: "Meaning is realized at the point of reception; if this reading of Tacitus offers a useful means of interpreting Chinese political dilemmas, what does it matter that the West has failed to recognize the usefulness of the principle (or has forgotten it, if indeed the original source for this is Bacon or other early modern readers of Tacitus)? The idea of different cultural traditions of reading the classics, with complex interactions and debates, is so much more exciting than the idea of a single worldwide tradition or set of conventions."

In the aftermath of catastrophic events such as a mass shooting or natural disaster, politicians often offer up their thoughts and prayers to victims. Critics then hit back, condemning the phrase as meaningless — with no real value or impact. Now a new study from economists finds that prayers might have an actual dollar value, and they may also have real consequences for charitable giving in the wake of catastrophe, but not in the way you might think.

I had to double check my notes before asking him about his experience auditioning for American Idol when he was still in high school.  Briston has lived in lots of places, including Knoxville, Los Angeles and Nashville, where, like lots of our guests who have spent time in Nashville, he has a story about John Prine at the grocery store. He's young but he has lived a lot of life — before he was even legally allowed to drink, he went to rehab — and he wears all that experience in a way that really makes you want to root for him and his dreams.  Briston came in with his bandmates, Jack and Noah, to perform songs from his latest EP which came out in May, Indiana, and from his 2018 EP, Carnival. Hear it all in the player.

Question: Looking To 2015, Economists See 5 Reasons To Celebrate

Each December, economists make predictions. And each new year, they get hit by unexpected events that make them look more clueless than prescient. This year's bolt out of the blue was the plunge in oil's price, which no one saw coming. Still, top economists' forecasts did get a lot right for 2014. One year ago, most were predicting healthy growth, tame inflation, low interest rates, rising stock prices and declining unemployment — and that's just what we got. Now they are looking ahead, and once again, their forecasts are brimming with good cheer. These are among the most common predictions for 2015: GDP will keep growing quickly. The gross domestic product — a measure of all U.S. goods and services — has been on a tear. The Commerce Department's latest revision shows GDP advancing at an astonishing 5 percent over July, August and September. That growth spurt suggests the U.S. economy has momentum heading into the new year. Lower energy prices will give consumers more money to spend, and that should help boost revenues for stores, restaurants, hotels and more. "Our assessment for growth in 2015 will now be around 3 percent," wrote Doug Handler, chief U.S. economist for IHS Global Insight. For an economy in its sixth year of expansion, a 3 percent annual pace would be impressive. Employers will hire and pay more. In 2013, the unemployment rate averaged 7.4 percent. Last December, economists were predicting a slide to about 6.6 percent. As it turned out, the jobless rate tumbled to 5.8 percent, and now economists see the rate dipping to 5.5 percent or lower in the coming year. "With stronger economic growth, the U.S. will add about 230,000 jobs per month on average next year," according to the forecast of Gus Faucher, senior economist at PNC Financial Services Group. That would add up to about 2.8 million net new jobs in 2015. Currently, the country has 2.8 million people struggling with long-term unemployment. So if Faucher's prediction were to come true, workers finally could enjoy a healthy market where job openings and willing workers would match up. And the increased demand for workers would help push up stagnant wages. Inflation will be exceptionally low. Even though the economy has been heating up, the price of energy has been cooling. The year began with crude oil selling for about $110 a barrel, and is ending with the price at about half that. Oil's plunge has driven down prices for gasoline, home heating oil, jet fuel and more. Seeing that change, the Federal Reserve has sharply cut its forecast, saying that inflation will run between 1 percent and 1.6 percent in 2015. That's down from a September forecast of 1.6 percent to 1.9 percent. Interest rates will inch up. OK, you've heard this before. Time and again, economists have predicted that interest rates would tick up. And time and again, they have been wrong. For example, when this year began, the average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage was carrying an interest rate of 4.43 percent. Most economists thought that rate would rise. But as the year wound down, the 30-year rate was running at about 3.75 percent. Nevertheless, economists think this time is different and that rates really will rise in 2015. In a mid-December statement, Fed policymakers said they "can be patient" when it comes to timing a rate increase, but most economists figure patience will run out by midyear, and that will lead to a slow, steady ratcheting up of interest rates to more normal levels. When it comes to the strategy of holding down rates to stimulate growth, "we believe the Fed's work is now done," said Bernard Baumohl, chief global economist with The Economic Outlook Group. Stocks will go higher. The stock market has been zooming up for years now. The Dow Jones industrial average stood at 6,627 in early March 2009, during the worst of the Great Recession. But with the recovery going strong, the stock average has been pushing above 18,000. Some skeptics think the stock market is due for a "correction" that would knock down prices by 10 percent or more in 2015. But the more typical prediction is that with oil prices running so low, investors will want to keep putting money into companies that stand to benefit from increased consumer spending. Howard Silverblatt, senior index analyst at S&P Dow Jones Indices, summed it up in a recent tweet, saying "high-octane optimism once again prevails on the Street."

Question: Measles Hits Amish Communities, And U.S. Cases Reach 20-Year High

Members of Amish communities in Ohio traveled to the Philippines for heartfelt reasons: They were there on service projects to help less fortunate people. Unfortunately, they came home with unwelcome hitchhikers: measles viruses. Those travelers hadn't been vaccinated against this highly contagious disease, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Thursday. As a result, they have triggered an outbreak of more than 130 cases, primarily among their unvaccinated friends and relatives in Amish communities. Add that to other cases and there have been 288 cases of measles in the United States so far this year, CDC officials said. And while that number is small compared with the hundreds of thousands of cases that swept the nation in the 1960s before vaccination campaigns succeeded, it's the largest number since the mid-1990s. The cases reported to date are in 18 states. The CDC says 41 people have been hospitalized, but nobody has died so far. There is a safe and effective measles vaccine (known as MMR), CDC officials note. But most cases these days are among people who have philosophical or religious objections to vaccination. This outbreak has changed some hearts and minds, though. Melanie Amato at the Ohio Department of Health told Shots that more than 8,000 Amish people have lined up to be vaccinated for measles to help stem outbreaks in six Ohio counties. Measles strikes more than 20 million people around the world each year. The Philippines is in the midst of an epidemic that has so far sickened 32,000 people, the CDC says. That's one major source of the current outbreaks in the United States, though the virus has been imported by travelers to more than a dozen different countries. So far all of the cases in the U.S. have been connected to foreign travel. People traveling overseas should make sure they have been vaccinated against measles, Dr. Anne Schuchat, director of the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases at the CDC, said at a press conference. If you're not sure whether you have gotten the recommended two shots, go ahead and get them, she says.

Question: The White Stripes: Collaboration, 'Conquest'

One of America's biggest rock bands, The White Stripes, is also one of its smallest.  The duo of guitarist Jack White and drummer Meg White draws from blues and punk in equal measure, but its latest release is inspired by a pop song from the '50s. Patti Page is best-known for her hit "How Much Is That Doggy in the Window." Her more sultry "Conquest" is a song Jack White wanted to sing for years. "Conquest" is the A-side on three new vinyl singles from The White Stripes. The B-sides are new songs. "Well, the problem with B-sides is, it's almost like, 'Okay, we'll go and write some mediocre songs,'" Jack White says. "I really love B-sides, because it gives you a new chance to breathe some new life into a whole project that you were already working on. It's almost like the stepchildren of the project of the album." Earlier this year, the band released its sixth studio album, Icky Thump. For the new B-sides, The White Stripes teamed up with Beck and recorded in his Los Angeles home studio. The new songs include an acoustic, mariachi-style reworking of "Conquest." Being in Southern California, Beck pointed out a place where they could find mariachi ensembles standing around waiting for work. "While we were working on a song, we asked if somebody could go over there and check and see if there was anybody there," White says. "She called back and said, 'Do you want a four-piece or a five-piece band?'" Jack White spoke with Renee Montagne about working with Beck, as well as the new songs and the inspiration for The White Stripes' sound. "One thing we've always tried to avoid in The White Stripes is all those words that I can't stand that start with 'R,' such as retro, and relic, and reissue, and re-create, all that stuff," White says. "All I know is I just want my stuff to sound as soulful as I can." RENEE MONTAGNE, host:  One of America's biggest rock bands is also one of its smallest. The White Stripes is a hard rock duo: Jack White on guitar, Meg White on drums. That's it. The band draws from blues and punk in equal measure.

She was just another conquest…  MONTAGNE: "Conquest" is the A-side on three new vinyl singles from The White Stripes. The B-sides are new songs.  In putting out this set of vinyl singles, Jack White says he and Meg had help from another rock star, an innovator: Beck.  Mr. WHITE: I was at his house once and saw his little studio on the back. I said, is it alright if me and Meg come over and just record a couple of songs over there? And he said, well, I just moved. And I said, oh, maybe next time or something. But he called back and the next day, it's all set something up. Why don't you guys come by? And we went over there, and he had set up a whole studio in his living room, you know? I had written a song on the plane on the way out there, which was "It's My Fault for Being Famous." So it was a good little session there.  MONTAGNE: Was part of doing it in Beck's living room that B-sides are supposed to be a bit ragged?  Mr. WHITE: Well, the problem with B-sides is, it's almost like, okay. We'll go and write some mediocre songs, you know?  (Soundbite of laughter)  MONTAGNE: Right, because that's the tradition. The B-side is like it sounds. There's the A-side. And then…  Mr. WHITE: Yeah.  MONTAGNE: …the not-so great song that has to be on the other side. But also - good for you. So you don't have any B-sides.  Mr. WHITE: Well, it's like, you know, I mean, you go and write some songs, and you're supposed to be, well, don't make them too good because then, you know, you're "throwing them away or something," quote, unquote. You know what I mean? I really love B-sides, because it gives you a new chance to breathe some new life into a whole project that you were already working on. It's almost like the stepchildren of the project - of the album.  (Soundbite of song, "Conquest")  Mr. WHITE: (Singing) Conquest.  At Beck's house, I said, do you know of any trumpet players who can come in? We could do an acoustic version of "Conquest." He said no. But there's a place in L.A. where mariachi bands just wait in this square for people to hire them for barbecues and parties.  MONTAGNE: Right.  Mr. WHITE: So while we were working on a song, we asked if somebody could go over there and check and see if there was anybody there. And they went over, and she called back and said, do you want a four-piece or a five-piece band? So we say, yeah, we'll take a five-piece band.  (Soundbite of song, "Conquest")  Mr. WHITE: (Singing) And then in

Steve Chapman, whose twice-weekly column for The Chicago Tribune is syndicated to about 50 newspapers, says reporters should give details on their sources to investigators in the case of the leak of a CIA officer's name.  In Chapman's Feb. 20, 2005, column on the case against Judith Miller of The New York Times and Matt Cooper of Time, he sides with the court, stating, "in this case, principle should yield to the need to protect agents who are serving their country."

Question: Looking Into Trump Campaign's Russia Ties, Investigators Follow The Money

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

Investigators looking into the Trump campaign's ties to Russia will be able to pursue leads by tapping into a huge database of suspicious financial transactions maintained by the federal government. Under the Bank Secrecy Act, financial institutions operating in the U.S. are supposed to inform the Treasury Department's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, or FinCEN, when they see transactions that indicate possible money laundering, such as all-cash purchases of expensive real estate. Senate investigators indicated last week that they would be using the database to begin tracking the financial activities of some of President Trump's associates. "Congress has kind of shifted the focus here to the money, and they're trying to see if there's a money trail that could link and identify different participants," says Jimmy Gurulé, a law professor at the University of Notre Dame and a former Treasury Department official. "It goes to the old adage of 'follow the money.' If there was collusion between the Russians and members of the Trump campaign, was it for free or was there some exchange of moneys or payments from foreign governments?" he adds. Trump made much of his fortune in real estate and gaming, two industries that have been notorious venues for money laundering. The Trump Taj Mahal in Atlantic City, which opened in 1990 and closed in 2016, was repeatedly cited for having inadequate money-laundering controls, not an unusual charge in the gaming business. FinCEN fined the casino $10 million in 2015, although Trump had long before declared bankruptcy and had little real involvement in the property. In more recent years, FinCEN has focused on the real estate business, looking for unusual purchases of properties that indicate money laundering is taking place. For drug dealers and corrupt government officials, there's often no better way to conceal their funds from regulators and tax collectors than by buying high-end properties in places such as New York, Miami and San Francisco, says Mark Hays, who heads the anti-money-laundering campaign at the nonprofit Global Witness. "These make for attractive landing pads, if, say, you're a suspicious person wanted for criminal activity in your home country and you actually need a place to cool your jets," Hays says. Such purchases can be easily hidden by using shell corporations and secret bank accounts, making it harder for regulators to track them, he notes. "You make the purchase [and the] real estate person says, 'Who owns this company?' It's so-and-so LLC. 'Well, who owns that?' That's not on the record. No one knows that," Hays says. That makes connecting the dots in money-laundering investigations more difficult. Still, FinCEN's records of suspicious activities could provide Senate investigators with real investigative leads, Gurulé says. "If I was involved with some criminal wrongdoing related to this investigation, this would make me very nervous," he says. AUDIE CORNISH, HOST:  Federal investigators are looking into banking records to examine the ties between Russia and the Trump campaign. One thing they're looking for is evidence of money laundering. Now, U.S. officials keep records of suspicious financial transactions, and these records may be key to exploring Russia's involvement in the 2016 election. NPR's Jim Zarroli has more. JIM ZARROLI, BYLINE: President Trump has spent much of his career in real estate and casinos. And these two industries have one thing in common - both are notorious venues for money laundering. It's something Trump had to contend with in 1990 when he opened the glittering Trump Taj Mahal Casino in Atlantic City. (SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING) UNIDENTIFIED MAN: In a space the size of three football fields there are over 3,000 slots, some taking $100 chips, plus 167 gaming tables. ZARROLI: Within a few years, the Taj was cited by federal officials for having inadequate money laundering controls. Fred Gushin, a longtime gaming industry consultant, says fines like these were common at the time. FRED GUSHIN: His level of compliance was no better or worse than everybody else's in Atlantic City. It took time for these regulations to take effect. There were some early violations by almost every casino in Atlantic City at that point in time. ZARROLI: Over the years, the Taj was repeatedly cited for violations. And in 2015, when Trump was much less involved with the property, it had to pay a civil fine of $10 million. The agency behind the fine was the Treasury Department's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, or FinCEN. It's responsible for tracking suspected money laundering - that is, hiding illicit funds from regulators and tax collectors. Lately, FinCEN has been concentrating on real estate. Mark Hays is with Global Witness, which campaigns for tighter money laundering laws. Hays says if you're a drug dealer or a corrupt government official, one great way to stash your ill-gotten gains is buying and selling expensive properties in pla

Question: Obama White House Veterans Urge Biden To Embrace Executive Action

President-elect Joe Biden won the presidency in large part because he promised to be the anti-Trump on policy, temperament, tone and just about everything else. But two men who helped run the Obama White House are urging him to follow President Trump's example in a specific way: by unapologetically leaning on executive actions to implement key policies. The advice from former Obama chiefs of staff Rahm Emanuel and Denis McDonough comes as Biden prepares to enter office with an agenda potentially stalled by a closely divided Congress — a much smaller House majority than expected and a 50-50 Senate, at best.  "There is — as President Trump himself has demonstrated with the consent, quite obvious consent of Republicans in Congress — an enormous amount of leeway for the president to institute executive action on things like immigration and energy and climate policy," said McDonough, who served as chief of staff for much of President Barack Obama's second term.  Obama himself signed many high-profile executive orders and pushed for broad administrative rules changes on environment, education, immigration and labor policies. But unlike Trump, most of Obama's high-profile orders came once his party lost its majorities in Congress and major legislation was no longer an option. "Trump changes that, and moves aggressively on executive orders — a multitude of them on multiple fronts," said Emanuel, Obama's first chief of staff. "Everything on immigration, etc., without any legislation." Many orders are already in the works. Speaking to MSNBC on Thursday, incoming Biden chief of staff Ron Klain promised a "sack" of executive orders Biden will sign on his first day in the Oval Office. Many of those actions will amount to a redoing of Obama administration policies that Trump has spent four years undoing: "Protecting the DREAMers, for example, starting on Day 1," Klain said, referring to the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program Trump tried to end. "Rejoining the Paris accords for climate change starting on Day 1, reversing some of the environmental rollbacks we've seen from President Trump." Large swaths of Biden's pandemic response will involve executive actions, too, including tapping the Defense Production Act to manufacture more personal protective equipment and setting up a World War II-inspired "Pandemic Testing Board" to coordinate and speed up test distribution across the country.   But the sweeping, New Deal-style agenda Biden promised was premised on the idea of winning control of the Senate, in addition to keeping the big majority that House Democrats won in 2018. That's not the landscape Biden will face in January. Still, McDonough, Emanuel and other Democrats are confident Biden can deliver many of the same results through the executive branch.  "There's no reason that President-elect Biden should not use the authority that's available to him," said McDonough, who's now a professor at the University of Notre Dame's Keough School of Global Affairs. Neither man is arguing Biden should ignore the legislative branch where he served as a senator for decades. McDonough said, "There are certain things you just have to do with Congress." Biden himself talked frequently during the campaign about his experience working across the aisle and the need for bipartisan cooperation. In his post-election speeches, he has repeatedly called for an end to gridlock and constant partisan warfare.  But Emanuel, who ran the White House during Obama's window of large legislative majorities, knows perhaps more than anyone that political capital can be limited. So, he argued that Biden should pack as much as possible into executive orders. "The fewer things you have to clog up the legislative pipeline with allows you to concentrate your political capital in that legislative front," he said. The climate agenda  Biden has made it clear he'll make climate change a top priority. At first glance, his much-discussed $2 trillion plan to wean the economy off fossil fuel and onto clean energy seems dead on arrival if there is a Republican Senate, but Jamal Raad, the co-founder of climate advocacy group Evergreen Action, has flagged more than 40 broad executive actions in the climate policies the Biden campaign has already laid out. "You don't have to speculate" on what a Biden climate agenda looks like in divided government, he argued: "His plans were littered with pretty significant executive actions on the climate crisis." A Biden administration can impose new energy efficiency rules on buildings, appliances and machinery, it can limit new leases for oil and natural gas drilling on federal property, and it can factor climate impacts into scores of regulatory actions across a broad range of agencies. Raad pointed to vehicle emissions standards as one enormous area of executive influence. "The executive has incredibly authority over mileage standards for cars and trucks," he said. "Ramping up production of electric vehicles is an incre

Question: President Obama To Meet With Congressional Leaders

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

A White House official says President Barack Obama has invited congressional leaders to the White House Wednesday for a meeting on the government shutdown. The official says Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, House Speaker John Boehner, and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi have been invited to the meeting. The official says Obama will urge the House to pass a spending bill to allow the government to reopen. The government shut down when Congress failed to pass a spending bill ahead of a midnight deadline. The official insisted on anonymity because the person was not authorized to publicly discuss the meeting before it was announced. Guest

S.V. Date, coordinates NPR’s Congressional coverage.
 JEREMY HOBSON, HOST:  From NPR and WBUR Boston, I'm Jeremy Hobson. ROBIN YOUNG, HOST:  I'm Robin Young. It's HERE AND NOW. And coming up, the new way of calculating benefits that's debuting along with those new health care exchanges. HOBSON: But first, President Obama has invited congressional leaders to the White House for a meeting in which he is expected to urge the House to pass a spending bill that would allow the government to reopen without strings attached. A White House official says Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, as well as House Speaker John Boehner and Minority Leader in the House Nancy Pelosi have all been invited to the meeting. But in a sign that the shutdown could last for a while, we also learned today that President Obama is shortening a trip to Southeast Asia that was scheduled for next week. Joining us now to discuss is NPR's S.V. Date, who coordinates congressional coverage on the NPR Washington desk. And what do we know? What is the latest? Is Congress and the White House any closer to a solution to this? S.V. DATE, BYLINE: Well, the fact that they're actually going to have a face-to-face meeting might suggest that, but in reality, as you point out, there's no real indication that that's the case. The speaker's office has already put out some statements wondering why they're having the meeting if the president isn't going to negotiate, and the White House has made it clear that they intend to ask for a clean spending bill and for Congress to eventually pass a clean debt limit. And there's nothing to negotiate about either of those things, in their view. HOBSON: Although we do see, from the spokesman for John Boehner, saying today: We're pleased the president finally recognizes that his refusal to negotiate is indefensible. So maybe there is some expectation that President Obama is going to negotiate on this. DATE: Well, perhaps that's what they're saying in order to make it more rational when they come out and say, well, the president's not giving us an edge, so therefore, we're not going to do anything. The president has said right from the start that this is not a negotiable item, that his health care law has been law of the land now for three years, and that the Supreme Court has upheld it. So there's no real point in trying to revisit that. HOBSON: Now, how does the situation change since yesterday, these health care exchanges opened up to the public? Does that change the calculation, since, of course, this was all about, in the beginning, Republican efforts to stall the Affordable Care Act? DATE: Probably not too much, because so far, the big picture from people in the Senate - Senator Lee from Utah - is that, well, we should continue to work on Obamacare, maybe just not this moment. One interesting little shift yesterday in the House was that none of the three bills that they passed regarding - or they tried to pass, anyway - regarding the government funding had a word about Obamacare in them. So perhaps they're now shifting from trying to deal or undo the president's health care law to perhaps trying to undo the negative consequences of the shutdown. HOBSON: Let's talk about what is happening in the Republican Party, because as we have heard, not everybody in that party is on the same page. Congressman Peter King of New York has been very outspoken. He calls it the Ted Cruz wing of the party, that the far right, the Tea Party-backed members who are, he says, trying to hijack the Republican Party. What kind of - what does all this dissention mean for the future of the Republican Party, and perhaps even John Boehner's speakership? DATE: It's not clear what it means for John Boehner's speakership, because he controls the levers of power within the House, and it would be very hard logistically for anything to happen to him, at least during this Congress. Now, as to the future of the party, that's a more interesting and debatable question. Remember that autopsy report that the party did earlier this year, where they said, well, we need to reach out. We need to broaden the base of the party. We need to bring in minorities. We need to bring in women, and we need to just be more welcoming. Well, this debate right now abo

Question: At Tech-Free Camps, People Pay Hundreds To Unplug

The overwhelming and endless stream of electronic alerts and messages on our computers, phones and tablets is driving demand for a new kind of summer camp for adults. "Technology-free" camps that force their campers to surrender their gadgets, wallets and that nagging "fear of missing out" — FOMO — are booking up fast. In June, Digital Detox held its first session of Camp Grounded, a three-day break from electronic devices in the Redwoods of Northern California. At a price tag of $350, the event sold out. "You read articles about being present and being in the moment, and you kind of nod your head and you agree. But I don't think you know what that means until you put everything away and you're OK with where you are," says Anastasia Savvina, who attended the June camp. Tech-free getaway options like this are growing. Hotels like the Lake Placid Lodge in New York and Hotel Monaco Chicago are offering digital detox or "black-out" services. The Check-In to Check-Out package at the Lake Placid Lodge invites guests to leave their electronic devices at the front desk and to immerse themselves in "the serenity of the Adirondacks." Digital Detox co-founder Levi Felix attributes the high demand for tech-free retreats to a growing awareness of the pervasiveness of technology in our everyday lives. "People are feeling like something's not right here," he says. With no iPhones or computers to distract them, campers at Camp Grounded participated in "playshops," featuring yoga, laughing contests and writing sessions. But for many of the participants, the most exciting activity was conversation. Campers adopted nicknames like "Chamomile" and "Nash," and were barred from talking about work or disclosing their age. Nicholas Freilich says that not being able to discuss work or even reveal their actual names allowed everyone to quickly understand each other on a more personal level. "You had to talk about who you were as a person," he explains. And no one could "check out" by looking down at his or her phone midway through a conversation. "People were so much more willing to engage in eye contact," Freilich says. Derek Overbey, the senior social media manager at an online software company in San Francisco, says he normally spends 12 to 14 hours a day in front of a screen. Giving up his phone for the weekend was "liberating," Overbey says. Other participants say they were initially disoriented by the lack of texts and tweets. "I was having a lot of phantom rings on my leg, thinking I was getting a phone call or message," says camper Chris Heuer. But by the end of the weekend, they say the experience gave them a new perspective on their relationships with technology and social media. Savvina has since decided to begin observing tech-free Friday nights. She stops using her computer after work and reserves her phone "only for family calls or emergencies." Felix says that life off the grid is not the end goal of the retreat. "It's not about not using [technology]. It's about being in control of using it," he says. "It's all about what you do when the devices are gone." Why pay to unplug when you can just leave your phone in a drawer? Campers say handing over devices to the counselors served as a kind of guarantee that they could finally relax. "It's very hard to put your phone away knowing that you can always pick it up," Savvina says. "You don't have to pay money [to disconnect]," Felix says. But he says that people who try to digital detox on their own are likely to feel the pressure to just pick up their phones and interact with people online. Campers say they had a great time, but they don't have a digital record of it. Cameras were also surrendered when campers showed up. Raphaella Baek is an intern on NPR's business desk.
