Question: Former Equestrian Says She Sprayed Pig's Blood In Lover's Home As Revenge For Affair

Lizzie Purbrick, a former champion equestrian, admitted in a British court that she scrawled rude messages inside her lover's house in pig's blood as revenge for an affair. She said she discovered her partner, conservative member of Parliament David Prior, was sleeping with another woman. So in May, she let herself into his South London home, armed with the blood.  Purbrick turned herself into police quickly, and confessed to the crime in court on Tuesday. She called the blood-spraying act "cathartic."  She has been sentenced to 120 hours of community service.  The Telegraph reports on her crime:   "Purbrick, 63, who was part of Great Britain's equestrian team in the 1980 Moscow Olympics, took revenge on her lover, Lord Prior of Brampton, after catching him in the arms of another woman. "After obtaining eight litres of pig's blood from a friend who was a butcher, she let herself into his south London flat and used a garden sprayer to paint the words "whore", "lady slut" and "big d*** lord" on the walls. "She also drew a penis on the floor before emptying the remainder of the pig's blood everywhere and then leaving a cheque for £1,000."  Purbrick "played loud music" as she sprayed the blood around, and selected pig's blood on purpose because Prior "liked pigs," the BBC reports.  Her defense attorney, Simon Nicholls, tells NPR there was "no dispute about the pig's blood" or the writing on the walls. His argument in her defense, he said, was that this was a "one-off incident" — a hot-blooded crime, not a cold-blooded one, if you will.  As a result, he argued, a restraining order was not necessary. The judge was not convinced and imposed the restraining order anyway.  Nicholls also apologized in court for his client appearing in pink shorts and a white T-shirt. He tells NPR that she couldn't find an Uber or a cab, and had to walk "a significant distance" from the London Underground station to the courthouse.  She arrived just in time for the trial, without enough time to change into the more formal clothes she brought with her, he said.  Purbrick spoke to reporters outside the courtroom (after she had changed into a dress) about the relationship, her crime and her sentence.  "We were together for eight years," Purbrick said, according to the Telegraph. "I was all set up to be Lady Prior." She called the judge a "sweetheart," the BBC reports, expressing relief that she didn't have to go to jail:  "Purbrick said she was due to catch a flight to South Africa, where members of her family live and where she plans to spend much of her time. Asked about what that meant for her impending community service, she joked: 'I think I've got two years to do 20 hours - I didn't listen to be honest.' "  Prior, the member of Parliament whose home was defaced, is a former investment banker and corporate lawyer who was an adamant remainer, meaning he lobbied for the U.K. to remain in the European Union.  Purbrick competed in the 1978 world equestrian championships, and in 1981, she was part of an equestrian team that won gold at the European Championships.

Question: Why The Freedom Caucus Shouldn't Worry About Primary Threats From President Trump

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

Since the Republican health care bill died recently, President Trump has been looking to shift blame for the early failure in his administration. Last week, he found an easy scapegoat — the conservative House Freedom Caucus, that had voiced reservations about the Affordable Care Act replacement plan from the outset. In a series of tweets, the president raised the specter of even backing primary challengers against some of the caucus's members, and later began calling out the group's leaders by name. But the not-so-veiled threats by the president are likely to have little impact in these conservative districts, where most members easily outperformed Trump and, instead, would have faced more viable primary threats from the right if they had backed the deeply unpopular Obamacare bill. "The Freedom Caucus members all won big and they all have essentially very, very safe seats," said Elaine Kamarck, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution's Governance Studies program, who has done research on congressional primaries. "And they would have faced hell if they hadn't voted against this because their primary electorates are driving this, and they are very conservative." Throughout the recent debate over the GOP health care bill, many Freedom Caucus members stood up and said the bill was not what they or their constituents had in mind when they promised for seven years to repeal Obamacare. To them, it left too many of the problems with Affordable Care Act in place, including tax credits and subsidies and expanding Medicaid. There was a last-ditch effort from the White House to woo these conservative members to the president's side, promising to shift control over insurance requirements to cover "essential health benefits" to the states, but then that change caused some moderate House Republicans in danger in 2018 to threaten to abandon the bill. Ultimately, Trump and House Speaker Paul Ryan lacked enough votes from both GOP moderates and conservatives to be sure the bill would pass if Ryan put it on the House floor. An analysis from Republican pollster Chris Wilson of WPA Research, who worked for Texas Sen. Ted Cruz's presidential campaign, found that support for the GOP bill, the American Health Care Act, was at very low levels in districts of Freedom Caucus members. "House Freedom Caucus members held the line, and the data show that is precisely what their constituents wanted," Wilson wrote in an analysis. A Quinnipiac University poll showed that the bill only had 17 percent support nationally. Freedom Caucus members won their districts last November by bigger margins than Trump, too. An NPR analysis found that the roughly 30 members of the conservative caucus won reelection by an average of almost 37 points. Trump, however, carried their districts by about 26 points. But as Trump's tweets indicate, the key to knocking off any of these members would lie in a primary. But for these lawmakers, running to their right is almost impossible — and that's the only way to defeat them. According to NPR's analysis, they won their primaries by an average of 77 points last year, and about half of them didn't even have a primary challenger. In fact, the bigger threat for them was if they had supported the GOP bill. Conservative groups such as the Club for Growth and Heritage Action had planned to keynote the health care vote — meaning that if they'd supported the Trump-Ryan bill, their cumulative conservative score would have taken a hit on the groups' annual scorecard and given ammunition to a primary challenger. But, the groups promised they would have the backs of anyone who opposed the bill. Two Koch-backed groups, Americans For Prosperity and Freedom Partners, announced they planned to establish a seven-figure fund "to stand by principled lawmakers who keep their promise of fully repealing Obamacare." So, there's good reason why Freedom Caucus members have seemed unconcerned by Trump's threats. "If somebody can get to the right of me in the primary, God bless him," Arizona Rep. Trent Franks told Roll Call. Texas Rep. Louie Gohmert, a Trump ally, told the Dallas Morning News that if the president didn't stop with the friendly fire, they would stop coming to his defense too. "If he weakens and hurts those who stood with him when our leadership was coming after him and abandoning him, we may not be around to help him during the future assaults," Gohmert said. Michigan Rep. Justin Amash likened Trump's threats to taunts from a schoolyard bully, telling reporters that, "It's constructive in 5th grade. It may allow a child to get his way, but that's not how our government works." There are reports and speculation that Trump and Vice President Pence could visit some of these Freedom Caucus districts over the upcoming recess to try to get back at them for not supporting the GOP health care bill. Such a move would not just be unprecedented by a sitting commander in chief — it would be politically unwise. The reality is that defe

Question: A Cape Cod Connection In 'The Outermost House'

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

On a recent trip to Cape Cod, I bundled up against the wind and wandered off the path along sand dunes. Bits of crimson, like rubies, lay at my feet among scrub forests and shallow marshes.  Cranberries. Everywhere! Millions of them, lying low, snuggling into shrubs. I gathered enough for a Thanksgiving sauce. After all, here, perhaps on this very spot, the first pilgrims came ashore on Nov. 21, 1620. They took a quick look around at the frigid land bereft of any other edibles, and left after only a couple of weeks. Eventually they settled in Plymouth.  New England author Henry Beston helped me see the glory of a Cape winter in all its desolation and rawness. I had rented an old farmhouse in Truro for a month's writing retreat and picked up a bunch of library books. I almost dismissed Beston's The Outermost House: A Year of Life on the Great Beach of Cape Cod. At first I thought it was just another chronicle of escape to the countryside. But Beston's writing stirs our primal need for nature at its most wild and pure. He reminds us that we still live on an untamed planet.  Beston had built a weekend retreat — a cabin, really — on Coast Guard Beach. He arrived in September, planning to stay only two weeks. But he found himself lingering on, so possessed by the "beauty and mystery of this earth and outer sea" that he could not leave. For a year, he recorded his observations, writing at a kitchen table. His words cast a spell over me. It was as if I, too, could see the skunk's tiny paw prints on a solitary November morning. Or the young deer marooned in icy waters. I cheered when three coast guards rescued her. The author was not only teaching me how to write about nature, but also showing me how to think about our estrangement from it. He wrote: "The world today is sick to its thin blood for lack of elemental things." Here's my favorite passage, though: "Nature is part of our humanity, and without some awareness and experience of that divine mystery, man ceases to be man. When the Pleiades and the wind in the grass are no longer a part of the human spirit, a part of very flesh and bone, man becomes a cosmic outlaw."  We can't all stay on the beach through the bleakness and grandeur of winter. Yet we yearn for a connection with the elements — and an author who can make us see and feel them. You must read this: Henry Beston's The Outermost House: A Year of Life on the Great Beach of Cape Cod. Lucinda Fleeson's book, Waking Up In Eden: In Search Of An Impassioned Life On An Imperiled Island recounts her two years working in a botanical garden on the Hawaiian Island of Kauai. She now oversees a program for international journalists and teaches at the University of Maryland's Merrill College of Journalism. You Must Read This is edited and produced by Ellen Silva.

Question: Concern Grows Over Unregulated Pesticide Use Among Marijuana Growers

The marijuana industry has a pesticide problem. Many commercial cannabis growers use chemicals to control bugs and mold. But the plant's legal status is unresolved. The grow room at Medical MJ Supply in Fort Collins, Colo., has all the trappings of a modern marijuana cultivation facility: glowing yellow lights, plastic irrigation tubes, and rows of knee-high cannabis plants. "We're seeing a crop that's probably in it third or fourth week," says Nick Dice, the owner. The plants are vibrantly green, happy and healthy. And Dice says that's because the company's taken a hard line on cleanliness. "We have people who that's their only job is to look for any infections or anything that could cause potential damage to the crop," he says. As any farmer will likely say, damage to the crop equals damage to the bottom line. Dice's employees used to spray the crop with mild chemicals. They would switch between multiple pesticides and mildew treatments, treating anywhere from every three to four days. Dice says he's seen other operations crumble as their cannabis succumbs to mildew or bugs. Pest controls ensure a good yield. And when it comes to cannabis, yields really matter. Dice estimates the grow room is worth as much as $180,000. Protecting that yield is hard work. That's why many growers in states that have legalized recreational or medical marijuana use chemicals. But it's the federal government that tells farmers which pesticides are safe to use. And so far, the feds wants nothing to do with legalized marijuana. Colorado State University entomologist Whitney Cranshaw says that's left growers to experiment with little oversight. "In the absence of any direction the subject of pesticide use on the crop has just devolved to just whatever people think is working or they think is appropriate," he says. Tobacco farmers, for example, have a stable of pesticides the government says are safe to use. But Cranshaw says marijuana growers have none. "Sometimes they've used some things that are inappropriate, sometimes unsafe," he says. Brett Eaton is a plant expert with American Cannabis Company, a Denver-based consulting group. He's concerned about what the pesticides are doing to the product as well as the consumer. "Anybody can get their hands on harmful chemicals, and they can just spray away all the way up until the last day of harvest," he says. Safety concerns led Denver officials to place a hold on tens of thousands of marijuana plants earlier this year, pending an investigation. Colorado doesn't require growers to test the crop for traces of pesticides before being sold. But state agriculture officials did recently release a list of pesticides deemed appropriate for use on cannabis. Washington state, Nevada and Illinois have similar lists. Eaton says regulators are only playing catch up. "Other agricultural industries already have policy in place for the safe use of spraying certain pesticides and fungicides," he says. "This being a new industry, it hasn't been addressed yet." And with more states turning marijuana into a legal commodity crop, it'll take a mix of policy, science and industry self-regulation to figure out what's appropriate, and what's not.

Question: First Loves: Nick Cords' 'Golden Age' Infatuations

We are continuing the theme of "First Loves." Musicians and readers have been telling stories about the very first piece of classical music they fell in love with. For violist Nicholas Cords, it was the violinist David Nadien who unlocked a whole new world of old recordings. Please tell us your story in the comments section. I heard Scott Simon talking with a language guy on Weekend Edition Saturday about the misuse of the word 'literally.' Turns out most people mean it in a figurative way, but I assure you that I literally wore out the grooves of a David Nadien record I found in my father's collection when I was a kid. David Nadien was a legendary NYC violinist active from the 1940's until relatively recently. He was a soloist, took a short stint as concertmaster of the New York Phil under Bernstein, and was one of the great studio/commercial musicians of his generation. Legions of aspiring young violinists know him through his recordings of the Suzuki repertoire. Purchase: Archiv Music The particular record I am referring to was a recording of violin showpieces (Sarasate, Kreisler, Paganini, etc.) and it screamed "golden age" to me. Nadien's playing was stylish, larger than life, and mind-bogglingly immaculate. It instilled in me a love of old recordings that has lasted to the present day. From Nadien to scratchy old recordings: read more Via Nadien, I discovered an even older generation of pre-war recordings from greats like Bronislaw Huberman and Fritz Kreisler on violin, pianists Vladimir De Pachmann (who talked to himself on his recordings) and Josef Hoffman, great singers like Luisa Tetrazzini and Caruso. Oh, and let’s not forget string quartets: Capet, Flonzaley, Bohemian, and the old, old Budapest quartet (before it was four Russians). I developed an infatuation with this era, and like many infatuations, it turned into an obsession. I even formed a Scratchy Record Society while I attended the Curtis Institute of Music. That this was one of the least popular student associations in modern times had little effect on my enthusiasm. The miserable attendance logs helped to underscore a "me vs. the classical music world" mentality (though Brooklyn Rider violinist Johnny Gandelsman was a regular!). To bring a long story to a conclusion, rather than pining away for the past, I began to realize that we actually live in an age of endless musical possibilities. I still have nothing but deep respect and admiration for performers of the past, but we now have access to so many different kinds of music and I think that is something to cherish deeply. I look at the programs of my band, Brooklyn Rider, and compare them to the old Joachim Quartet programs and they look so different in scope. Our musical landscape has the possibility of Beethoven and Brahms, but we also have access to collaborations with Japanese shakuhachi players, Irish fiddlers, Persian kemancheh players, singer-songwriters, electro-acoustic musicians, and more. It only makes sense, as so many musical pathways have been forged since the days of Joachim. I have now deluded myself into thinking that the present may be a mini golden era of musical pluralism. History may very well tell us differently, but it is just so exciting to take a very small role in reshaping the string quartet for the 21st century. In any case, it is so much more satisfying to be an active musical citizen than leader of the Scratchy Record Society. Hmmm, I wonder if that David Nadien recording was ever released on CD?  Nicholas Cords is a violist and member of the string quartet Brooklyn Rider and Yo-Yo Ma's Silk Road Ensemble.

Question: Rick Ross: 'The Boss' Denies Prison-Guard Past

His music career has been built on the image of a swaggering, dominating hustler and drug dealer. But document after document released to The Smoking Gun tells a different story about Miami rapper Rick Ross.  In the middle of July, a picture of Ross in the uniform of a correctional officer surfaced. Ross said the picture was a fake, adding in an interview with AllHipHop.com, "My life is 100 percent real. These online hackers putting a picture of my face when I was a teenager in high school on other people's body." But documents released Monday seem to prove that Ross worked as a prison guard for 18 months, beginning in December 1995. Alex Cohen speaks to New York Times reporter Jon Caramanica about Ross' tricky situation: defending his street credibility in the face of evidence that there were at least some days during which he was not, in fact, hustling. (Soundbite of song "Hustlin")  Mr. RICK ROSS: (Singing) Every day I'm hustling. Every day I'm hustling. Every day I'm hustling.  ALEX COHEN, host:  That's rapper Rick Ross' song "Hustlin", and those are about the only lyrics that we can safely play on our air. Most of Ross' rhymes are pretty graphic. They chronicle his adventures as a drug-dealing criminal. But then news surfaced on the website, The Smoking Gun, that the real Rick Ross, whose name happens to be William Roberts, may be closer to the other side of the law. Apparently, Rick Ross worked as a prison guard in Florida. To find out what this revelation might mean for his career, we're joined now by Jon Caramanica, who writes about music for the New York Times. Thanks for joining us, Jon. And for those of us who aren't familiar with Rick Ross, who is he?  Mr. JON CARAMANICA (New York Times Music Writer): Rick Ross is a rapper from Florida, and the Carol City section of Miami, which is one of the rougher sections of town. Been involved in music-making for quite a few years, but really has only come into the public consciousness in the last couple of years with his last two albums, which are "Port of Miami" and "Trilla." And he, sort of, made a name for himself as, as you say, someone preoccupied with the, sort of, minutiae of drug-dealing and the attitude that comes with all that.  COHEN: And now all, of a sudden, there are these former employment records for a prison guard with the same social security number as Rick Ross. They surface on The Smoking Gun. How did these allegations come to light?  Mr. CARAMANICA: What predated the employment information was a photo that leaked of a teenage Rick Ross, I believe he was 19, shaking the hand of someone at a Department of Corrections; it seems to be some sort of graduation ceremony. And Rick Ross goes on line afterward and says, oh, online hackers did that, that's not me, they put my head on somebody else's body. So that's actually what motivated The Smoking Gun to start chasing down all the information. And it turns out that it certainly is Rick Ross. And the life that he led when he was a teenager is not exactly what he's been discussing in his songs.  COHEN: Jon, why would this even matter, if he was a prison guard in his past? Why would people care?  Mr. CARAMANICA: I think there's two reasons. First, there's a historically fraught relationship between the African-American community and the police, of any form. And I believe that there's some skepticism towards people who represent the law.  Secondly, Rick Ross has positioned himself, in his entire rap career, as someone obviously moving in the shadows of the law. But for something like this to come to light throws the whole idea of authenticity into doubt. Now, obviously, you know, rap, like most art, is a form of performance. But, that said, when you've made your entire career premise upon something that proves to be false, that can be potentially damaging in the long run.  COHEN: So, now that there is this newer information that's surfaced, what has Rick Ross' response been to that?  Mr. CARAMANICA: Not very significant. He really used to freestyle that indicated that he still was not particularly interested in what was going on "on the net." Right now, Rick Ross has one or two songs that are on the radio, I imagine they'll still continue to be on the radio. But, is he going to come out and say, yes, you know what, that is what I did, I should have been up front and honest about it, and here's why. If he delivers compelling art about it, if he makes a great song about it, he could, conceivably, just move right past this, like another bump. But the fact that he lied about it is, unfortunately, a bad first sign.  COHEN: Jon Caramanica writes about music for the New York Times. He joined us from our studios in New York. Thanks, Jon.  Mr. CARAMANICA: Sure.  (Soundbite of song "Big Boss")  Mr. ROSS: I'm the biggest boss that you've seen thus far. Because it's just another day in the life of the goddamn boss.

Question: Bonds Shatters Baseball's Biggest Record

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

Barry Bonds of the San Francisco Giants is a supremely accomplished ballplayer with an unmatched hitting eye. He also has an explosive, compact swing, perfectly suited for launching balls great distances. Even before baseball's so-called "steroids era" (starting, in earnest, in the mid-1990s), Bonds was widely considered the best everyday player in baseball. He's a Hall of Fame talent who has excelled over his career at hitting for average, stealing bases, fielding and, yes, hitting for power.  Of course, it is the power part that makes so many people uncomfortable, and it's the reason the sports world is paying so much attention to Bonds right now. Home runs are baseball's exclamation points. They are exciting, dramatic and game-changing.  Now, Bonds has shattered Henry Aaron's record of 755 career home runs. It's the most important record in baseball. Here's something you should know about Bonds. He is under investigation for perjury by federal authorities. According to the San Francisco Chronicle, he admitted before a grand jury that he used a clear substance and cream given to him by his trainer but didn't know they were steroids.  His career path is one of the strangest in all of professional sports.  In his late 30s, when the skills of most players start to erode, Barry Bonds became Superman. Before 1999, the year he turned 35, Bonds hit one home run per every 16.1 at bats, a formidable rate comparable to other leading power hitters. Since 1999, he has hit home runs at a pace of one per every 8.9 at bats. That's nearly double his home run output per at bat from prior to the year he turned 35.  No one has ever hit home runs at such a clip, and it's a pace Bonds achieved when he reached baseball's equivalent of old age.  A Startling Transformation Barry Bonds came up to the Major Leagues with the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1986, at age 21. He was lithe like a sprinter, known more for swiping bases than slugging home runs. Here is one scout's assessment of Bonds before he started playing Major League ball, according to ESPN.com: "Tall, slender, has reached physical maturity ... He doesn't work much at improving anything and gets by on the ability he possesses in his physical body." By his mid-30s, that physical body had changed dramatically: Bonds looked more like a linebacker, with bulging biceps, a fireplug neck and a massive, sprawling back. These are the kinds of changes in body shape that experts say are consistent with steroid use.  According to the book Game of Shadows, by Mark Fainaru-Wada and Lance Williams, the San Francisco Chronicle reporters who linked Bonds to the BALCO steroids lab, Bonds decided to start taking performance-enhancing drugs in 1998. That was the year that Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa both broke the single-season home run record, the year America became entranced by the long ball. The book says Bonds was irate at all the attention that McGwire, in particular, received.    Bonds was 34 at the time. At the end of 1998, he started working out with a childhood friend and personal trainer, Greg Anderson. According to Game of Shadows, Anderson showed Bonds how to inject Winstrol, a powerful steroid favored by bodybuilders. It's the same drug that sprinter Ben Johnson tested positive for at the 1988 Seoul Olympics. Within two years, the book claims, Bonds had started taking designer steroids supplied by BALCO called "The Cream" and "The Clear." And in 2001, Bonds had his greatest single season ever — 73 home runs, an all-time record. The momentum from this late-career power surge put Bonds on pace to become the greatest slugger in the history of the game.   A Problem Beyond Bonds Despite the shadows that mar his home-run record, there's no indication that Bonds has ever tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs. And if he did take steroids, he was hardly alone among professional baseball players. When Major League Baseball began drug-testing players for the first time, in 2003 — on a survey basis to determine the extent of steroid use in the sport — it reported that 5 percent to 7 percent of the players tested positive. That may not sound like a lot, but it's enough to fill the rosters of two major league teams.  And this April, a former clubhouse attendant for the New York Mets named Kirk Radomski admitted in a federal plea agreement that he supplied performance-enhancing drugs to "dozens of current and former major league ballplayers and associates." Over the years, almost all of the public suspicion about doping in baseball has focused on brawny home-run hitters like Barry Bonds. But what of the pitchers who try to blow their fastballs by them? Some have suggested that pitchers have even more incentive to take steroids, because the drugs can help them recover from the stress that pitching puts on the arm and shoulder.  For example, all eight members of the New York Mets organization (minor and major leaguers) who have tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs since 2005 ar

President Donald Trump has found new bargaining partners on Capitol Hill. After meeting over a meal, the president and Democratic leaders Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi are close to a deal that would continue the protections of the Delayed Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA. Many Republicans aren’t happy about the talks. The president is now in Florida surveying damage from Hurricane Irma. Meanwhile, wildfires continue to burn in the West and Northwest. In the Senate, many Democrats are signing on to Bernie Sanders’ Medicare for all plan. And in Baltimore, the Department of Justice has declined to prosecute any of the officers involved in Freddie Gray’s death. Several representatives and senators said they are disappointed, but not surprised.

Question: Avoid Wedding Blues When You're Short On Green

Saying "I do" can be an expensive proposition, as couples often pour thousands of dollars into extravagant dream weddings. But the fairy tale is over for many brides who have to downsize their nuptials during this economic downturn.  In recent years, many brides have been getting a bad rap, thanks in part to television shows like Bridezillas.  Bratty Bridezillas stand to suffer during a depressed economy, but brides on a budget might survive. They lucked out recently at a Goodwill in Boston, where part of the store was transformed into a large wedding dress boutique after an anonymous retailer donated more than 1,000 designer gowns.  "I like the style. It's very simple, yet it's very elegant. It's not too poofy," said 26-year-old Evelyn Previl, who liked the price, too — $160.  Price is a concern for Previl, who has always dreamed of a fairy tale wedding but now worries about losing her job in the recession. Her budget is firm: $15,000.  "I think I would've invited a lot more people. I would've probably spent maybe $35,000, and it definitely has affected the wedding that I wanted," she said.   Brides are scaling back on catering, photography and flowers, forcing the businesses that depend on weddings to adjust to a new reality.  Standing over an industrial mixer, Cakes to Remember proprietor Ellen Bartlett says just staying open is her new bottom line. She and her staff in Brookline, Mass., create one-of-a-kind cakes — 85 percent are for weddings.  The average price runs $6.50 a slice. Among the offerings is a caramel tiramisu — an espresso-infused gold cake layered with caramel mascarpone. But now, for the first time in 20 years, Bartlett is offering less expensive, predesigned cakes. She's also more open to negotiating prices. "It is scary — we're definitely in some ways expendable," she says.  "There's a lot of luxury associated with the hospitality industry, so there are a lot of people out of work right now." At the Commandant's House, a venue on Boston Harbor, bride-to-be Katie Ahern anticipates her June wedding. She and her fiance started planning before the economy tanked, but they're sticking with the agenda: 200 guests, a big tent — the works.  "It's kind of unfortunate — like, I feel like in the back of my head, planning the wedding — it's so happy and exciting, but at the same time you feel guilty," Ahern says.   Rosaria Salerno, Boston's city clerk, marries couples at City Hall and says she has noticed an increase in weddings there recently, but she can't say for sure that it is because of the recession.  "I think that maybe this is giving us a chance to step back and say 'What is important?' " Salerno says.  "These two people are pledging their lives to one another — you don't need a brass band to do that."  Perhaps the now infamous Bridezilla is on her way to extinction — to be replaced by another creature: the do-it-yourself bride. Andrea Shea reports for member station WBUR. MELISSA BLOCK, Host:  Saying I do can be an expensive proposition. Couples often pour thousands of dollars into extravagant dream weddings, but the fairy tale is over for many who have to downsize their nuptials in these hard times. Andrea Shea of member station WBUR in Boston has this report on budget brides and recession weddings. ANDREA SHEA: Brides have gotten a bad rap in recent years. (SOUNDBITE FROM "BRIDEZILLAS") BLOCK: I'm the bride. I used to be number one. Go, go, go. BLOCK: I think you will not be in the wedding tomorrow at all. BLOCK: I'm the bride. I can do what I want to do. SHEA: Bratty Bridezillas stand to suffer during a depressed economy but brides on a budget might survive. They lucked out recently at a Goodwill in Boston.

Updated at 2:51 p.m. ET The Biden administration has imposed sanctions on 10 current and retired top-ranking leaders in Myanmar's military following a coup earlier this month that toppled the democratically elected government led by Aung San Suu Kyi. In a statement issued Thursday afternoon, the Treasury Department announced it was freezing U.S.-based assets belonging to the sanctioned individuals. The list includes six members of the newly installed junta, including its head, Senior Gen. Min Aung Hlaing, and his deputy, Soe Win. Hlaing was already on a U.S. sanctions list from 2019, when he was targeted for the army's brutal crackdown on Rohingya Muslims in the country's western Rakhine state. The Feb. 1 coup in Myanmar, also known as Burma, came in response to elections that easily returned Suu Kyi and her National League for Democracy to power, while meting a stinging defeat to the military. After taking power, Min Aung Hlaing ordered the arrest of Suu Kyi, who held the title of state counselor, as well as President U Win Myint. Noting that President Biden had called the coup "a direct assault on Burma's transition to democracy and the rule of law," Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said in the statement that the department, "stands with the people of Burma — and we are doing what we must to help them in their effort to secure freedom and democracy." "We are also prepared to take additional action should Burma's military not change course," Yellen said. "If there is more violence against peaceful protestors, the Burmese military will find that today's sanctions are just the first." Separately, the U.S. Agency for International Development announced that it was "immediately redirecting $42.4 million of assistance away from work that would have benefited the Government of Burma. Rather than supporting the military, we will redirect these funds to support and strengthen civil society." In brief remarks on Wednesday, Biden telegraphed Thursday's moves, and called on Myanmar's military to release Suu Kyi, a Nobel Peace Prize laureate, and U Win Myint. "The people of Burma are making their voices heard, and the world is watching," Biden said. "We'll be ready to impose additional measures, and we'll continue to work with our international partners to urge other nations to join us in these efforts." The military takeover has sparked the biggest protests in Myanmar since the 2007 "Saffron Revolution" that helped lay the groundwork for Suu Kyi's eventual 2015 election victory after spending 15 years under house arrest at the hands of a previous junta.  Again on Thursday, protesters, including teachers and government workers, gathered across the country. In the capital, Naypyitaw, hundreds of workers chanted anti-junta slogans and carried signs supporting Suu Kyi, according to The Associated Press. In his first public remarks aimed at the protesters, Min Aung Hlaing blamed "unscrupulous persons" for the growing civil disobedience, the AP said. In addition to the 10individuals, three wholly owned subsidiaries of a large conglomerate in Myanmar with ties to the military, Myanmar Ruby Enterprise; Myanmar Imperial Jade Co., Ltd., and Cancri (Gems and Jewelry) Co., Ltd., were also sanctioned. In a separate statement on Thursday, the State Department said the sanctions   "specifically target current or former members of the military who played a leading role in the overthrow of Burma's democratically-elected government."  "They do not target the economy or people of Burma, and we have gone to great lengths to ensure we do not add to the humanitarian plight of the Burmese people," the department said.

Question: China OKs 38 Trump Trademarks; Critics Say It Violates Emoluments Clause

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

President Trump is on his way to getting something he has wanted for a long time: dozens of valuable "Trump" trademarks in China. China's Trademark Office has now given preliminary approval to 38 new trademarks, covering everything from hotels to golf clubs, insurance and more. After AP reported the news Wednesday, Senate Democrats expressed outrage, noting that Trump's lawyer Sheri Dillon had promised in January that there would be "no new foreign deals" during the Trump presidency. But by pursuing new trademarks, the Trump Organization, which the president continues to own, may be laying the groundwork for expansions in China. Maryland's Ben Cardin said, "For a decade prior to his election as president, Donald Trump sought, with no success, to have lucrative and valuable trademarks granted in the world's biggest market. He was turned down each and every time. The floodgates now appear to be open." Cardin called on the federal departments of Justice, State and Commerce to "brief Congress, immediately, on these matters and on the potential constitutional dangers that they present." Cardin is concerned about violations of the Emoluments Clause of the Constitution, which bars elected leaders from taking anything of value from foreign countries, unless approved by Congress. Dianne Feinstein of California said the trademark approvals are "exactly what the Constitution's Emoluments Clause was designed to prevent, and President Trump is blatantly defying it." Last month, China approved one registered trademark for a Trump-owned construction services business. Kathleen Clark, a government ethics professor at Washington University in St. Louis, told NPR at that time that by giving Trump valuable name rights, Chinese officials may hope they can influence policy decisions. And that represents a breach of the Emoluments Clause, she believes. "What I think this demonstrates is that when Donald Trump is dealing with the Chinese government on behalf of the United States, he also may be thinking about what the Chinese government can do not just for the U.S. but for Donald Trump and his businesses and his own financial well-being," she said. The Trump Organization says it pushes for trademarks to prevent others from using them. "[W]e zealously protect Mr. Trump's valuable name, brand and trademarks," Alan Garten, chief legal officer for the Trump Organization, told The Washington Post in a statement. Trump has been trying for a decade to nail down trademarks in China for a wide range of goods and services, including pet care products, lingerie and computer software. The Trump Organization has been frustrated that many Chinese-owned businesses have used the name "Trump" without paying any licensing fees. The applications for these particular trademarks had been filed last April during the heat of the presidential campaign when Trump was claiming that China steals U.S. jobs. AP says China's Trademark Office published the provisional approvals on Feb. 27. If no one in China objects, they will be automatically registered after 90 days.

The majority of people in Indonesia, Turkey, Egypt and Jordan say they do not believe Arabs carried out the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. A majority of British Muslims and 46 percent of French Muslims also share this view. And in Pakistan, the number is 41 percent.  The statistics come from the June 22, 2006, Pew Global Attitudes Project on "The Great Divide: How Westerners and Muslims View Each Other." Despite the poll numbers, attitudes are shifting in Jordan, and people are more likely to blame al-Qaida for the attacks, says Ayman Safadi, the editor of the Al Ghad newspaper in Amman, Jordan. But, Safadi says, a strong culture of conspiracy theories -- coupled with a defensive attitude among Arabs -- could explain the recent poll numbers.  Robert Siegel talks with Safadi and with Andrew Kohut, director of the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press. MICHELE NORRIS, host:  From NPR News, this is ALL THINGS CONSIDERED. I\'m Michele Norris.  ROBERT SIEGEL, host:  And I\'m Robert Siegel.  Here are some readers\' comments to an article that\'s online today, an article which claims that, and I quote, "cracks are beginning to appear with many analysts and political experts questioning the official story about 9/11."  A reader from Canada named Noor(ph) cites a Canadian documentary and writes, "The Twin Towers bombings were pre-planned. It all happened because of some quarter\'s hatred for the Muslims in the U.S. and the UK."  A reader named Lane from Germany adds this, "Few believe the Towers were done by CIA. They\'re convinced that Bush and the Jews let it happen so they could finally attack the oil reserves."  And Ab(ph) from the UK calls for an independent inquiry into 9/11 carried out by experts from different countries. Of the American version of events, Ab writes, "It don\'t add up."  There is a body of opinion, especially among Muslims, that the 9/11 Commission notwithstanding and videos purporting to show Osama bin Laden proudly taking credit notwithstanding, there is a body of opinion that bin Laden, al-Qaida and a couple of dozen young Arab men did not fly into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon on September 11, 2001.  How many people regard that basic plot outline as a fraud? Well, Andy Kohut, who is director of the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press, once put this question to Muslims in several countries.  Mr. ANDY KOHUT (Pew Research Center for the People and the Press): Do you believe that groups of Arabs carried out the attacks against the United States on September 11, or don\'t you believe this?  SIEGEL: What kind of answers did you get?  Mr. KOHUT: Surprisingly, we had an overwhelming number of people say no, they did not carry out these attacks. In Indonesia, 65 percent said no. In Egypt, 59 percent. Turkey, 59 percent. In each of the five Muslim countries in which we conducted a survey, majorities said no. In Europe, among four different sub-populations of Muslims, majorities said no. And in Nigeria, the only place where there was even close to an even division of opinion about this.  I was flummoxed by this question. It\'s one that the Gallup organization had asked in January of 2002 soon after the attacks. And I put it on our questionnaire just to check whether Muslims had a different view and it surprised me that they were as much of the view that this did not happen or that Arabs did not carry out these attacks as they were back then.  SIEGEL: How recently have you seen figures like that showing majorities of opinion in various Muslim countries not believing that Arab young men carried out 9/11?  Mr. KOHUT: Well, this survey was conducted only a few months ago. It was conducted in April and May, so this is pretty much current opinion.  SIEGEL: Andrew Kohut, thanks a lot for talking with us about it.  Mr. KOHUT: You\'re quite welcome.  SIEGEL: That\'s Andrew Kohut of the Pew Center speaking to us from Washington.  Now to Ayman Safadi, who is editor of the newspaper Al Ghad in Amman, Jordan.  Mr. Safadi, when we hear these poll results which imply that people in countries like yours, the majority of them don\'t believe in the basic plot line of 9/11 as Americans understand it, what should we think?  Mr. AYMAN SAFADI (Editor, Al Ghad): Well, I would tend to think that the position of people has changed. Initially, you did have people who sort of said it could not have been al-Qaida who was behind those terrorist attacks in New York and Washington, but I think now, the majority of the people, based on our own reporting and our reading of the situation, do believe that al-Qaida was behind it.

Question: Frequently Asked Questions

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

What is multimedia, or Web-centric, reporting? It's some combination of video, text, audio, still photos and graphics presented in a non-linear format in which the information in each medium is complementary, not redundant. In other words, doing a text and video versions that are essentially the same story isn't multimedia reporting. Essentially, with all the forms to choose from, the storyteller figures out how best to tell each part of the story -- what works best in video, in audio, in text, in graphics -- within the time and resources available. Each part of the story may have its own narrative arc. How does the multimedia training work? Multimedia reporting training comprises two parts:  A three-day hands-on workshop to teach concepts, skills and context of multimedia reporting. Participants work in teams of four to produce their stories. A six-week follow-up in which workshop participants work in teams and alone to become proficient in doing Web-centric breaking news, and short and long features using storytelling templates designed for this purpose.  [Although we use "multimedia" and "Web-centric" interchangeably, Web-centric is probably more accurate and less confusing. Multimedia is often confused with "multiple media", meaning multiple platforms, such as print, TV, online, and radio.] What do the participants learn? During the workshop, participants learn how to use a storyboard to transform a traditional linear audio story into a non-linear multimedia story comprising text, still photos, video, audio and/or graphics. They use a digital video camera as their reporter's notebook to gather the information that goes into the story. They learn how to use Photoshop, video-editing and Flash software to put their stories together. Participants also explore how the unique characteristics of the Web are changing reporting, beat structure, news content and presentation. They also learn how interactivity, a critical characteristic of this new medium, is likely to affect their work and the NPR news organization through their participation in and creation of social networks. During the three-day workshop, participants work in teams of four to produce a multimedia story. They learn how multimedia stories are conceived, constructed and put together. They learn how to use the software and hardware required to put together such stories. After this introductory training, participants have enough knowledge to begin producing basic multimedia stories. Why not just train people how to do video? Video is only one of the available tools to tell a story. Although many news organizations have decided to add video to their Web sites, either through training their reporters or hiring videographers, that's an interim step to embracing the potential of this new Web medium. Most news organizations still take a "Christmas tree" approach to their stories on the Web: a text story with video, slide shows or graphics hanging on the side. What else will the participants learn during the six-week follow-up? Although three days of intense hands-on training provides participants with the skills and knowledge to begin producing basic multimedia stories, when they apply these skills and knowledge in the newsroom, other challenges will arise. Some of these issues may include how to:  manage equipment   approach each story as a Web story first, and spin off a radio story   assess story staffing based on a Web-centric approach   assess and incorporate the time required for production   explore the transition to a Web-centric production process   develop multimedia storytelling templates, ranging from breaking news to features to investigative stories   develop beat and issue Web shells   develop platform distribution strategies, including cell phones  How much experience does the Knight team have in doing these types of workshops and facilitating news organization transition? The Knight Digital Media Center team has been a pioneer in bringing multimedia reporting concepts and skills to news organizations. It has been conducting multimedia reporting workshops since 2002. We offer four multimedia reporting workshops and two technology training workshops a year. We usually receive around 200 to 300 applicants for 20 positions. Kim Perry started cross-training in journalism in 2001, working in television, print, wire services and online. She's worked with Knight since 2004 to bring multimedia reporting to newsrooms. After earning a master's at the University of California Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism in 2006, Perry spent a year and a half at The San Diego Union-Tribune as a content producer/reporter and multimedia mentor/trainer. Paul Grabowicz and Jane Stevens started the multimedia reporting courses at UC Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism in 2000. The courses began as an elective, and are now required of every student. With Scott Hacker, they set up the J-school's multimedia resources site, which is now managed by Jeremy Rue. J

Question: Gene Cernan, Last Man To Walk On The Moon, Dies At 82

The last person to leave footprints on the moon has died. NASA reported that Gene Cernan died Monday at the age of 82, surrounded by his family. Gene Cernan flew in space three times, including twice to the moon. Cernan was big, brash and gregarious. And if he hadn't been lucky, he could have missed his chance to walk on the moon. Cernan challenged himself his whole life. When he entered the military, he chose to be a naval aviator. Landing on an aircraft carrier is perhaps the hardest thing to do in aviation. Cernan did it because it wasn't easy. He said he was constantly pushing himself to do better and be better. "My dad always used to say, 'Just go out and do your best. You're not going to be better than everyone at everything.' And he was right," Cernan said, "I wasn't. But he was also right one other time when he said, 'Someday you're going to surprise yourself. Just do your best and someday you're going to surprise yourself.' " Cernan's final trip in space was also the final time NASA sent people to the moon, the Apollo 17 mission, which took off on Dec. 7, 1972. Four days later, Cernan landed the lunar module on the moon with astronaut Harrison "Jack" Schmitt. Cernan couldn't hide his enthusiasm as he exited the spacecraft, saying, "We'd like to dedicate the first steps of Apollo 17 to all those who made it possible. Oh my golly! Unbelievable!" Decades later, Cernan reflected on that moment in a 2015 NPR interview, no less thrilled to be the last, rather than the first, to go there. "The first steps had been made by others long before I got there. But those were my first steps." Cernan is one of only three people to travel to the moon twice (Jim Lovell and John Young were the others). Before Apollo 17, he flew on Apollo 10, which was the mission just before the first lunar landing. On Gemini 9 in 1966, he conducted the second American spacewalk (which almost ended in disaster). Cernan had trouble controlling his body in the weightlessness of space. He became exhausted. His visor fogged up and he barely had the strength to get back into the capsule and close the hatch. "Fate played another trick because I might not have come home from that flight. We didn't know much about what we're doing [yet]." Dreaming big and working hard were two things Cernan always did. He grew up in Chicago. Neither of his parents went to college, but he earned several degrees in engineering. Despite Cernan's technical background, his time on the moon and in space forever altered his life. Cernan said he gained a new perspective, because "when you leave the Earth, it's not only technologically different — it's philosophically different and it's spiritually different." Many astronauts had difficulty describing what it was actually like to be in space — not in the technical sense, but in finding the words to share that remarkable experience. He chronicled some of them in his 2016 documentary, Last Man on the Moon. "Many of the astronauts didn't really know how to describe that because that's not what they were going there for," said Francis French of the San Diego Air and Space Museum, who has written many books on the space program. "Gene Cernan in the decades after his mission really reflected on that and he [very well described] what that's like." There's something else about Cernan: He had the opportunity to land on the moon during an earlier mission, Apollo 16, as the pilot. But he turned it down, because he wanted to be commander, in charge of the mission. "I sort of felt like I'd been an underdog most of my life," he recalled. "[Achieving the command of Apollo 17], I proved to myself that I was good enough. That I could get the job done. That was a big point in my life." Cernan spent his post-NASA life trying to inspire young people. He once said, "Dream the impossible — and go out and make it happen. I walked on the moon. What can't you do?"

Senate investigators have heaped criticism on both Boeing and the Federal Aviation Administration, finding a series of failures and improprieties during the review process that put the troubled Boeing 737 Max jetliner in the sky.  The Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation laid out the fatal missteps in a scathing report issued Friday. "Our findings are troubling," the committee chairman, Sen. Roger Wicker, R-Miss., said in a statement accompanying the report.  He said the Senate probe — launched in April 2019, after a pair of crashes involving the plane killed hundreds of people in Indonesia and Ethiopia -- analyzed comments from dozens of whistleblowers and FAA staff, as well as thousands of pages of documents. "The report details a number of significant examples of lapses in aviation safety oversight and failed leadership in the FAA," Wicker said. "It is clear that the agency requires consistent oversight to ensure their work to protect the flying public is executed fully and correctly." Among those "lapses" is the claim that Boeing officials were allowed to improperly influence the outcome of tests of the aircraft's faulty flight control system, known as MCAS. The system software, while intended to keep the plane from stalling, has been blamed for forcing the plane into nosedives that pilots have struggled — and in the case of the two crashes, failed — to recover from. After the plane was grounded worldwide in March 2019, it underwent a review for recertification in the U.S. Last month the FAA cleared the Boeing 737 Max to resume passenger flights, provided that it undergoes a series of significant design changes and observes new requirements for pilot training and maintenance. But the Senate committee found fault with the tests that ultimately resulted in the plane's recertification in the U.S., including the claim that FAA officials and representatives from Boeing together "established a pre-determined outcome" to those tests. "Boeing officials inappropriately coached test pilots in the MCAS simulator testing contrary to testing protocol. This test took place over a year after the second 737 MAX crash and during recertification efforts," the report alleges. "It appears, in this instance, FAA and Boeing were attempting to cover up important information that may have contributed to the 737 MAX tragedies." The Senate report also detailed a number of other problems at the FAA and its parent agency, the Department of Transportation, including:  Retaliations against whistleblowers and failures to hold FAA senior managers accountable for inadequate training protocols The Transportation Department's failure to "produce relevant documents" requested by the committee Possible obstruction by "FAA senior leaders" of a review of the 737 MAX crashes by a Transportation Department inspector general.   "This dysfunction," the report concluded, "inserts an unnecessary risk to the flying public." In a statement emailed to NPR on Saturday, the FAA pushed back on what it described as the report's "unsubstantiated allegations." "Working closely with other international regulators, the FAA conducted a thorough and deliberate review of the 737 MAX," the agency said. "We are confident that the safety issues that played a role in the tragic accidents involving Lion Air Flight 610 and Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 have been addressed through the design changes required and independently approved by the FAA and its partners." Boeing, too, said in a statement that the company "learned many hard lessons" from the pair of disasters — though Boeing did not address the report's allegations specifically. For both Boeing and the FAA, the Senate committee's findings represent the second damning congressional report in roughly three months. The House Transportation Committee in September found that Boeing had displayed "a disturbing pattern of technical miscalculations and troubling management misjudgments," while the FAA suffered from "numerous oversight lapses and accountability gaps." Still, those findings have not dissuaded several airlines from resuming flights with the troubled aircraft. Brazil's Gol Airlines resumed commercial service with the jetliner earlier this month, a week after Ireland's Ryanair placed an order estimated to cost more than $7 billion.

Question: Should I Stay or Should I Go?

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

The unanticipated strong showing of John Edwards in the Wisconsin primary has given new life to the battle for the Democratic presidential nomination.  Okay, so he may have lost the state by 40,000 votes, and he may still be only one-for-17.  But in a race that seemed to be heading in an utterly predictable direction, it was a reminder that maybe -- just maybe -- there's some life to this contest yet. Still, the odds are not exactly stacked in Edwards' favor.  History, as well as the compressed calendar, argues against his dislodging John Kerry.    And while the purpose here is not to write anyone's political obituary just yet, the plain fact is that if Edwards doesn't do especially well on Super Tuesday, March 2 -- when 10 states' delegates are up for grabs -- there will be the inevitable questions of how long will he (or can he) stay in the race. These will not be insignificant questions.  John Edwards has bet the house on this race -- or should I say the Senate (he is giving up his Senate seat in his quest).  But if he falls short of the presidential nomination, then how long he stays in the race could make a difference.  For if he is eyeing the number two slot on a Kerry ticket, as many people think (see my colleague Ron Elving's Feb. 16 column on this topic), he knows that how long he yaps at Kerry's heels could affect his chances. As Edwards weighs his options, and his timing, it might be instructive to look at the decision-making process of some candidates from the past. Of course, it's pretty rare for rivals for the nomination to wind up on the same ticket.  The last time it happened was in 1980, with Republicans Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush.  Bush had upset Reagan in the Iowa caucuses that year, but was never able to capitalize on it.  Reagan beat him in New Hampshire, and in the South, and was clearly headed for the nomination.  Bush managed some wins -- such as in Connecticut and Pennsylvania -- but the pressure on him to withdraw was intense.  Ironically, Bush ended his candidacy just days after he won his most impressive primary win of the year -- a nearly 2-1 victory over Reagan in Michigan in late May.  But by then the numbers showed Reagan impossible to stop.  So Bush announced that he would no longer compete for delegates and would go to the national convention that summer and urge his delegates to back Reagan.  While Bush did give Reagan some fits during his bid for the nomination -- who could forget the "voodoo economics" charge? -- it never got ugly or personal, and Bush ended his bid with grace and before any real damage was done.  A few months later, Bush was the surprise choice as Reagan's running mate. A different scenario was taking place on the Democratic side that year.  Sen. Edward Kennedy of Massachusetts launched a bid to deny President Jimmy Carter his party's nomination.  Kennedy was thought to have a fair shot at accomplishing the feat, but once 51 Americans were taken hostage at the U.S. embassy in Iran, party voters rallied behind the president.  Like Bush, Kennedy did manage to win a few key contests along the way, like New York and Pennsylvania.  But Carter had an overwhelming lead in delegates.  On the last day of the primary season, Kennedy beat Carter in five of the eight states up for grabs, including California and New Jersey.  But Carter won Ohio, and by doing so clinched for all intents and purposes the nomination.  Kennedy could have withdrawn his candidacy on that day in early June, but did not.  He fought all the way to the convention.  The Democratic Party platform had so many concessions to the Kennedy camp that Carter himself was lukewarm about it.  And though Carter won renomination with little trouble, it was hardly the kind of send-off he hoped for. On stage with the president and Vice President Mondale at Madison Square Garden on that final day, Kennedy was stiff and aloof, showing no warmth for the man who would be leading his party in the general election.  He had his say -- with a memorable "The Dream Shall Never Die" speech -- and bowed out of the race.  But he withdrew much later than the Carter camp would have liked, with none of the graciousness that George Bush showed months prior.  And it was a dispirited Democratic Party that went down to defeat in November. Kennedy, of course, was not angling for a spot on the ticket that year, and his dislike for Carter was so strong that it may not have mattered to him what effect he had on party unity.  John Edwards' battle against John Kerry does not carry -- at least not at this point -- that personal animus.  Another difference between then and now is that in 1980, the battle for the nomination went on through June.  Now, with the front-loading of the primaries and caucuses, 75 percent of the delegates will be chosen by early March.  The quest for unity can be realized well before the convention opens. By the way, the last time a Democratic convention chose a ticket comprised of two who battled eac

Question: 'Twilight' Author Says She'll Release Prequel, A Moment Fans Thought May Never Come

Fifteen years after the first "Twilight" book was released, author Stephenie Meyer has announced she will release "Midnight Sun," the prequel to the saga long anticipated by fans.  The new edition to the series retells the story of "Twilight" — a love story in which human Bella Swan falls for vampire Edward Cullen — from Cullen's perspective. Swan narrates the other four books. Publisher Little, Brown and Company says "Midnight Sun" is the original story with a "new and decidedly dark twist." The "Twilight" series was immensely popular in the late 2000s, breaking book sale records previously held by the "Harry Potter" books and grossing a total $2.5 billion dollars between all of the franchise's films, according to Forbes. Meyer's announcement comes more than ten years after a tumultuous struggle between the author and her fans over the prequel's originally-promised release. In 2008, around the apex of the series' popularity, a draft of part of the "Midnight Sun" manuscript leaked online. In response, Meyer postponed the book's release indefinitely, saying she was too upset to continue writing. "I did not want my readers to experience Midnight Sun before it was completed, edited and published," Meyer wrote in a 2008 letter to fans on her website. "I think it is important for everybody to understand that what happened was a huge violation of my rights as an author, not to mention me as a human being." Meyer seemed to further shut the door on the world of vampires when she said she was "so over" the "Twilight" series in a 2013 interview with Variety. "I get further away every day," she told the entertainment outlet. "For me, it's not a happy place to be." But despite years of negative signaling, Meyer announced Monday morning that the prequel is now set to be released this August. In a video message to fans that aired on "Good Morning America," Meyer cited the current global uncertainty due to the coronavirus pandemic as inspiration for announcing the release. "It's a crazy time right now and I wasn't sure it was the right time to put this book out, but some of you have been waiting for just so so long it didn't seem right to make you wait any more," Meyer said in the video. Fans speculated that Meyer would announce a new book in the "Twilight" series when she posted a countdown timer set for Monday morning on her website. The online pile-up grew so large as the counter reached zero that the site crashed. Fans of the series, known as 'Twihards,' reacted on social media with a slew of excited posts and memes. Many of them said they thought this day might never come.

Question: America's Boo-It-Yourself Halloween Spirit

How about we call it boocycling — putting together an adult's or child's costume using recycled, thrift-store clothing? According to Goodwill, the favorite costumes for adult men and women this year will be zombies and pirates; for young girls, princesses, witches and fairies; and for young boys — Ninja Turtles, Spider-Men and zombies, all of which can be thrown together with secondhand threads. Looking for trick-or-treat trends, Goodwill recently polled more than 9,500 Americans about Halloween disguises and discovered that 62 percent of women and 57 percent of men prefer do-it-yourself costumes to store-bought, prepackaged ones. Lo and behold, some 17 percent of respondents prefer funny costumes; another 17 percent make do with minimalist makeovers; and 14 percent seek something unique. Out of her StudioDIY in Los Angeles, do-it-yourselfer Kelly Lanza creates costumes that are funny, minimalist and unique, like the human pineapple pictured here. When NPR asks Kelly about boocycling, she says, "I've never seen a store-bought costume get the same impressed reaction a homemade one often gets." Easy to do and, she says, "by making your costume yourself, you aren't limited to the same prepackaged costumes we see year after year, and you guarantee that it's one of a kind." Everyone "can reuse and repurpose items — saving money — and you can involve friends or kids in the process — making better memories than just grabbing the last pirate costume off the rack."
