"['represent the subtitle to find a news title on npr with less details: Examples:\n\n"A recent study in the International Journal of Cancer revealing a link between hot tea and the risk of esophageal cancer has provoked a range of reactions — from concern and vindication (for those who\'ve long warned family and friends about the dangers of ingesting boiling liquid) to mockery (Not one more study!) to outright defiance. (You can pry that hot cuppa from my cold, dead hands.) Hardened habitués were inclined to treat the study with the same solemnity as did the great Victorian limericist Edward Lear when he wrote:  There was an old man who forgot, That his tea was excessively hot; When they said \'Let it cool\' He answered \'You fool! I shall pour it back into the pot.\'  The warning is no laughing matter — esophageal cancer is the world\'s eighth most common cancer, and this finding affects millions of tea-drinkers. But the defensiveness that greeted it was scarcely surprising, since it imperiled one of the most intimate, ingrained and pleasurable habits known to mankind — that first scorching sip of morning tea. Hot tea — it has to be unhealthily hot — has a deep emotional relationship with the drinker. Its dimensions encompass far more than the gustatory, starting with its magical ability to get chronic malingerers out of bed every morning. That first chastising sip constitutes a tiny tour de force of hope that, like a tingling hot bath, cauterizes other pains. Those grieving the loss of a loved one have found that hot tea can seep into places that, to quote poet William Wordsworth, "do often lie too deep for tears." It\'s hardly surprising, then, that it\'s not just tea drinkers who are addicted to the seductions of hot tea — writers are, too. Across tea-drinking cultures, in China, England, India, Russia, Egypt or the U.S., writers have milked hot tea for all its worth to add a splash of narrative panache to comic or erotic scenes or to build mood, momentum and character. And what more villainous character than Quilp, the epitome of evil in Charles Dickens\' The Old Curiosity Shop? Quilp is a dwarf with the head of a giant and a "few discolored fangs" for teeth. But his most grotesque trait — and a fine example of Dickensian éclat — is his trick of drinking "boiling tea without winking" and eating "hard eggs, shell and all." He resorts to these dietary stunts to terrorize his wife and mother-in-law, succeeding only too well in frightening the women half to death so that they begin "to doubt if he were really a human creature." Sinister in a more ambient way is the boiling tea in Daphne du Maurier\'s gothic classic Rebecca. At the country manor Manderley, afternoon tea is an elaborate affair served on a tea table covered with a snowy-white tablecloth: "Tiny crisp wedges of toast, and piping-hot, flaky scones. Sandwiches of unknown nature, mysteriously flavoured and quite delectable, and that very special gingerbread. Angel cake, that melted in the mouth, and his rather stodgier companion bursting with peel and raisins." But the tea itself, for some reason, is always scalding. It unsettles the already anxious narrator, the second Mrs. De Winter, who is the new mistress of Manderley and is forever comparing herself to her predecessor, the beauteous and wicked Rebecca. When they have guests over to tea, she has to do the honors, and is in a state of high nerves at having to handle the "monstrous silver tea-pot and kettle." In another scene, when she calls on her husband\'s querulous grandmother, who pretends not to know who she is and demands to meet "dear Rebecca," the tea is once again unpleasantly hot, adding to the malignant suspense that builds steadily to the novel\'s blazing finale. A work that rings with cries of "tea quick, please" to tragicomic effect is Fyodor Dostoevsky\'s strange novella, The Eternal Husband. This cat-and-mouse psychological tale explores the fraught relationship between two men, one of whom, Velchaninov, used to be the lover of the other man Trusotsky\'s, now dead wife. One night, Velchaninov is gripped by mysterious and agonizing pains, and Trusotsky, with an almost demented fervour, forces him to drink "two or three cups of very hot weak tea — boiling hot" as a sureshot remedy. In hysterical tones, he urges him, "Drink this tea quick — never mind if you scald your tongue — Life is drearer. You can die of this sort of thing, you know." Why would the cuckold administer to the sufferings of the man who has wronged him? Trusotsky\'s concern is genuine but it has an edge. Sure enough, though Velchaninov feels better after the tea and falls asleep, he wakes up to find Trusotsky standing over him in the dark, razor in hand. The nurse has turned assassin, with the passive aggression simmering inside reaching boiling point. As intense, but with a comic-erotic charge, is the scene that unfolds in Palace Walk, Naguib Mahfouz\'s first novel in his Cairo trilogy. The libertine Yasin — magnificently described as having "the body of a bull and the elegance of a peacock"— is throbbing with lu" == "When Tea Reaches Its Boiling Point In Fiction, So Too May The Story"', 'When Alex Horton shipped home from Iraq in 2007, he decided to go to college and get a degree in journalism. He hoped the new, post-Sept. 11 GI Bill would help him out. "With my bank account dwindling and rent, utility bills, school tuition and other obligations on the table, coupled with the advice of my VA counselor, I bet it all on the post-9/11 GI Bill. And I lost," Horton wrote at the time on his blog, Army of Dude. The Department of Veterans Affairs has been the subject of criticism for years: rising suicide rates, inadequate health care, benefit delays. How did VA officials respond to Horton\'s criticisms? They hired him. Horton, who now writes for the VA\'s VAntage Point blog, tells NPR\'s Rachel Martin that the change was a good thing. "Being cynical and throwing bombs at a department can only work for so long before you ask yourself: What really can be of use to people?" Horton says. "I didn\'t see many tangibles that came out of me criticizing ... Before, I was saying, \'Here\'s the problem. Isn\'t this terrible?\' Now I\'m saying, \'Here are some issues. What can we do to fix it?\' " The transition from Army veteran to VA critic began when Horton started his second year of college, and transitioned from the original GI bill to the more generous version passed after Sept. 11. Horton was one of thousands of students who were affected when the VA fell behind on the processing of applications. "I had no idea when I was going to get paid. I had no idea if the money was on its way. And I had things to think about," Horton says. "I had rent. I had a truck payment. I had a lot of things to worry about, and I couldn\'t get any answers from VA or the counselors at my school." Horton\'s experience with the VA at that time was reflected in his blog posts. "The VA counselors at my school buy salt in bulk to pour into the wounds of the students they are purported to serve," he wrote in one. "One in particular lambastes me whenever I call with a legitimate question regarding veteran benefits." Now, however, Horton is more understanding. He concedes that the counselors were overworked and under a lot of stress to try to interpret the new rules. "Seeing it from another side, and maybe added complexity, made the issues — I won\'t say easier to understand, but I know how it\'s a huge bureaucracy and there are some parts that work well and some that need to be worked on," Horton says. "You have a bigger appreciation for what those issues are, and you\'re compelled to help fix those now."']" == "['represent this short title to find a subtitle that might be right below it on npr\nExamples:\n\'le Show - January 28, 2007\' == \'Harry features News of the Warm, News from Outside the Bubble, Dick Cheney: Confidential and Apologies of the Week.\n\t\t<a href="http://play.rbn.com/foo.ram.url=livecon/kcrw/g2demand/ls/ls070128le_Show_-_January_28.rm&start=54:52">\' != \'Stories: 1) Latino USA Episode 875 2) Latino USA Episode 876 3) Latino USA Episode 877\'', 'Once A Critic, VA Blogger Seeks To Fix Problems']"

Jordan Spieth, 21, has won the Masters with a record-tying score, 18 under par. Spieth led from the first round of the tournament in Augusta, Ga. — a feat last achieved by Raymond Floyd in 1976. On Sunday, reports the AP, no other contender truly threatened Spieth's dominance:  No one got closer than three shots of the lead all day. Spieth shot a 2-under 70 to hold off Justin Rose and Phil Mickelson. Rose, the 2013 U.S. Open champion playing in the final group of the major for the first time, and Mickelson were four shots back. No one else was closer than six.  At one point in the final round, Spieth became the first golfer in the history of the tournament to reach 19 under par. His final total, 18-under 270, tied the record set by Tiger Woods in 1997.

E.g. "['Represent the headline to find a news subtitle on NPR with more details', 'Measles Hits Amish Communities, And U.S. Cases Reach 20-Year High']" == "['Represent the next text', "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."]" != "['represent the subtitle to find a news title on npr with less details', 'Good morning, here are our early headlines: -- \'Serious Failings\' By Russia In Deadly Beslan School Siege, European Court Says. -- First African-American Female Judge On New York\'s Top Court Found Dead.

Question: Tenet Answers Criticism from Retired CIA Officers

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

A group of retired CIA officers have accused former CIA Director George Tenet of hypocrisy and failed leadership. They wrote an open letter that read, in part, "By your silence you helped build the case for war."  Tenet's book, At the Center of the Storm, prompted the complaints. The former intelligence officials have called on him to dedicate part of his book royalties to U.S. soldiers in Iraq and their families. But Tenet said that none of the letter-writers worked for him — and that they are not speaking from firsthand knowledge of events. Tenet called them "people who were not within 100 miles of me." Criticism also has come from Michael Scheuer, the first head of the CIA's Osama bin Laden unit.  Scheuer said his old boss should take a lot more responsibility than he has for what's gone wrong in Iraq. Tenet argued that the CIA was mostly correct in predicting how things might play out after the invasion. And Tenet denied that his analysts bowed to political pressure.   ROBERT SIEGEL, Host:  This is ALL THINGS CONSIDERED from NPR News. I'm Robert Siegel. MELISSA BLOCK, Host:  George Tenet spoke with NPR's Mary Louise Kelly in our New York bureau today. MARY LOUISE KELLY: He was the first head of the CIA's bin Laden unit. Scheuer believes his old boss should take a lot more responsibility than he has for what's gone wrong in Iraq. In The Washington Post this past weekend, Scheuer wrote that Tenet, quote, "lacked the moral courage to resign and speak out publicly to try to stop our country from sliding into what he knew would be an abyss." GEORGE TENET: Well, I didn't know it was going to be an abyss. LOUISE KELLY: George Tenet. TENET: There was never any doubt in my mind that you would win militarily. I didn't know how we would implement the post-war - I didn't have any prescient knowledge about how this is all going to play out. As to his resignation piece, well, you know, when you're a professional and you believe in your government and you believe in your service. I've got a war against al-Qaida I believe deeply in. The way I looked at my job was, I believed that I had an obligation to stay and do the best I could. LOUISE KELLY: Tenet says, not true. He adds, none of the ex-CIA letter writers actually worked for him, that these are people not speaking from first-hand knowledge of events. TENET: People who were not within a hundred miles of me, never sat in on meetings, don't know how I think about my country and my responsibility. They can say whatever they want to say. They're making all kinds of assertions. Look, they have a right to their opinion. LOUISE KELLY: Is it painful to hear this coming from former CIA officers? TENET: You know, I've heard from a lot of other CIA officers - hundreds of others in these two weeks. They said: Boss, keep your head up. We trusted your leadership, but history will make that judgment. LOUISE KELLY: As to his and the CIA's overall performance on Iraq, Tenet says it's mixed, that there's no question they blew it in assuming Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction. But he argues the agency got it mostly right in predicting how things might play out after the invasion. And Tenet denies his analysts bowed to political pressure. TENET: If we have told them what they wanted to hear, we could have not said things are really going badly. We could have not pointed out the post-war problems. So the thing that really troubles me is that I hear folks get up and say you just told him what they wanted to hear. It's not our culture. It's not the way I did my job. The record is mixed but there's no doubt that, you know, on issues that some policy makers would have loved us to have been much closer to them, we held our ground. LOUISE KELLY: George Tenet speaking at our New York bureau earlier today. BLOCK: That report from NPR's Mary Louise Kelly, who joins us from New York. And, Mary Louise, there have been a few factual inaccuracies in George Tenet's book that have come to light. What did he have to say about those? LOUISE KELLY: We've raised this with Tenet. He says he does regret the errors, that he may have been off by a detail or two. But that he remembers well the substance of the conversations and he says, look, I did a lot of research for this book, a lot of interviews. This is my attempt to be as honest as possible about events as he sees them. BLOCK: You asked George Tenet whether these criticisms that have been leveled against him are painful. Does he seem surprised by them? LOUISE KELLY: The other point I would make is from the reporting I've done these past few days, the CIA officers speaking out against Tenet, I think, are, as he said, they're probably in the minority. He is still amazingly, you know, after everything that happened, remarkably respected at the agency. I think his word will still carry a lot of weight among former and current intelligence officials there. BLOCK: Okay, Mary Louise, thanks very much. LOUISE KELLY: You're welcome, Melissa. BLOCK: T

Question: Hugh Bonneville Of 'Downton Abbey' Plays Not My Job

America is obsessed with Downton Abbey, the British series about a family so wealthy that they can't feed, clothe or care for themselves. Hugh Bonneville plays the patriarch of the family, and we've invited His Lordship to play a game we're calling, "Welcome to America, Lord Grantham." Since Downton Abbey shows us British culture at its height, we've decided to create a quiz about the American equivalent — the TV show that shows America not only as it is, but as we most wish it to be. He'll answer three questions about TLC's Here Comes Honey Boo Boo. PETER SAGAL, HOST:  And now, the game where people do something dumb to take a break from being so smart the rest of the time. America is obsessed with "Downton Abbey," the great British series - yes, we all love it. (APPLAUSE) SAGAL: It's about a family so profoundly stupid, they can't feed, clothe, or care for themselves in any way. (LAUGHTER) SAGAL: Oh, I'm sorry. My mistake. They're not stupid, they're rich. (LAUGHTER) SAGAL: Hugh Bonneville plays the patriarch of the family, Lord Grantham, and we are delighted to welcome his Lordship to WAIT WAIT...DON'T TELL ME! What a pleasure to see you. (APPLAUSE) HUGH BONNEVILLE: Thank you. It's lovely to be here. SAGAL: Now, I've been watching the show and really loving it, but I'm not clear to the protocol. So how should we address you? Milord? Your Grace? (LAUGHTER) BONNEVILLE: Hugh. SAGAL: Hugh. Nobody on the show calls you that, but all right, we'll go with that. People I know and admire and work with and are friends with loved the show. I would say, what's it about? They'd say, well, you know, it's all about the love affairs, and the clothes and the intrigue of who's in love with whom. I'm like, oh, that's a soap opera. Great, I'm not interested. And then I started watching it, and it is absolutely great. And it has made me into an idiot. (LAUGHTER) SAGAL: I used to care about important things, and now I'm like, oh dear, will Lady Mary accept Mr. Crowley's proposal? I don't know. (LAUGHTER) SAGAL: I can't stop. Can you explain why this show is so compelling? BONNEVILLE: I genuinely don't know. I'm delighted, but I don't know why. SAGAL: Yeah. BONNEVILLE: I think one of the things is that Julian Fellowes, who writes every episode, is a huge fan of a soap we have in Britain called "Coronation Street." SAGAL: Right. That was a classic soap that's been on for many, many years. BONNEVILLE: Yeah. And he's also a great fan of "The West Wing." (APPLAUSE) BONNEVILLE: So if you put the soap elements and the pace of "The West Wing" and a bit of period drama, so you think you're watching something intelligent, then.... (LAUGHTER) BONNEVILLE: Then you've got a recipe for something. SAGAL: Right. BONNEVILLE: But I think, over and above that, the production aims high. Whether it succeeds every time, I don't know, but it's set in a beautiful castle in the south of England. Yorkshire, sorry, in the north of England, but we film it in the south. And, you know, you... MAZ JOBRANI: Wow, you must have a really great zoom lens. (LAUGHTER) BONNEVILLE: I don't know, I think you could analyze it to death, but please don't, just stay watching it. SAGAL: I will. We'll be happy to. One of the things about the show is a lot of the appeal, even to me, a schlub like me, is the extraordinary grace, and the clothing and the design of the home and all the accoutrement. If the show is so much about elegance and a way of living that I can only aspire to or imagine aspiring to, why does every episode begin with the shot of a dog's butt? (LAUGHTER) SAGAL: It's the weirdest thing. It's like we've got a palace, we've got these beautiful actors, we've got motorcars, but let's start with the dog's butt. BONNEVILLE: And my name next to it. SAGAL: Exactly. (LAUGHTER) BONNEVILLE: Someone up there hates me. I don't know. I don't know why. It's an interesting opening choice. But it's become a bit of a thing about the show now. SAGAL: Yeah. BONNEVILLE: Hound's bum. SAGAL: Really? BONNEVILLE: Yeah. SAGAL: That's what they call it. BONNEVILLE: Hash tag hound's bum. (LAUGHTER) SAGAL: I'm actually very curious, is it - do you know - historically accurate in the sense that it depicts... BONNEVILLE: Yes, dogs have always looked like that, from behind. (LAUGHTER) (APPLAUSE) BONNEVILLE: Sorry about that. SAGAL: In the sense that is this how people of that station lived at that time? BONNEVILLE: I think it - as I said earlier, I think it aspires to some degree of authenticity. And if it makes someone reach for the history books and learn a bit more about that era, terrific. But no, ultimately, it's a fiction. But we do have a wonderful historical adviser on set, a guy... PAULA POUNDSTONE: Does he drink? (LAUGHTER) POUNDSTONE: Hugh, do you know whether it's accurate or not? BONNEVILLE: No. SAGAL: Really? BONNEVILLE: No, no. POUNDSTONE: So if it makes someone else reach for a history book. SAGAL: Right. PAUL WALLICH: Yeah, yeah, yeah, not me, I'm too busy. POUNDSTONE: Y

Question: Site Of Mass Shooting In San Bernardino Slated To Reopen

The office complex in San Bernardino, Calif., where a mass shooting took place last month reopens Monday. Workers will be returning to administrative buildings, but the conference center where 14 people were killed and more than 20 others were injured remains closed indefinitely. In the courtyard between Buildings 1 and 2 of the Inland Regional Center, a fountain gently splashes as Vince Toms describes what began as a routine day on Dec. 2. He'd been on several calls that morning and decided to take an early lunch. "I walked through the building and I got out the gate. Took about seven steps, and the fire alarm went off. I thought, 'Oh, boy,' " he says. Toms quickly realized it wasn't a fire drill. He's a manager at the center and a former medic. As he went back into the courtyard, Toms says, he "turned around, told everybody that this is real, there's a shooting in Building 3. And I went into the building and I told everybody in the stairwell to get up, shelter in place — it's an active shooter." Toms, who's tall and sturdy, looks off and seems far away as he talks. Lavinia Johnson, the center's executive director, says as sad as it is, events like this aren't completely unexpected these days. "It was an event that happened due to other people's political beliefs. Of course there's the memory of it, but these kinds of things can happen anywhere," she says. "They've happened in Paris and Africa; that's just the world we live in today." Terrorism may have visited the center, but Johnson says many of her 500 or so employees at the facility wanted to work in the wake of the attack. The center is the administrative hub for case workers and others serving the developmentally disabled across San Bernardino and Riverside counties. "They expressed they wanted to go and visit the consumers," she says. "Putting that process in place and getting them those tools helped. By helping other people, it helps them." Staff worked remotely as cleanup crews removed broken doors and shattered glass. As employees return Monday, they'll find their offices and the buildings look unchanged. But staff will acknowledge the events. "Our plan is to have each group of people meet with their managers to talk about their feelings and what they need to move forward. To treat the day as a day back — business as usual — but also to take time to reflect on what we do here and what happened," Johnson says. She walks out of the center's courtyard and into its empty parking lot, then stops and takes in all the buildings. "I've pretty much accepted what has happened, and I'm moving forward with it. I think it's important that I lead the staff in that direction. We can't wallow with the sadness and the tragedy that's happened; we have to move forward," Johnson says. Counselors will be on site for returning employees, she says, and they may be necessary if manager Vince Toms is right in his prediction. "I honestly expect those people that even think they're healed are going to come back and they're going to be jolted right back to that day as we go through those processes of grief and loss," Toms said.

Question: Senate to Review Finances of Televangelists

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

Earlier this week, six high-profile televangelists received an unexpected request from Iowa Senator Charles Grassley. The Senate Finance Committee will be investigating the financial records of the televangelists' so-called "mega-ministries," which have the same tax status as churches.  The TV ministries are being asked to reveal the details of minister pay packages, expense accounts, and use of luxury cars and private jets. Guest: Sen. Charles Grassley, (R-IA) member of the Senate Finance Committee NEAL CONAN, host:  This is TALK OF THE NATION. I'm Neal Conan in Washington.  Earlier this week the leaders of six so-called mega ministries received an unexpected letter from a senior member of Congress.  Iowa Senator Charles Grassley, the Senior Republican on the Senate Finance Committee, asked each of the religious organizations to provide information about their financial records including details on the ministers' paid packages, expense accounts and use of luxury cars and private jets.  Several of the ministers say they intend to comply, though one, the Reverend Creflo Dollar of World Changers Church International, says he's still reviewing the request.  Senator Grassley joins us on the phone from his office on Capitol Hill to tell us more.  Nice to have you back on the program, Senator Grassley.  Senator CHARLES GRASSLEY (Republican, Iowa): Always good to be with you, Neal.  CONAN: And what prompted this action on your part?  Sen. GRASSLEY: Well, see it in the context of five years of investigation that I've been doing of nonprofits of all sorts. And when you do things like that and you're successful at exposing a lot of things then you get a lot of information from whistleblowers. But we also got a lot of information from investigative reporters of your profession.  CONAN: Mm-hmm.  Sen. GRASSLEY: And so for about four or five months we've been looking at some of these things as a result of press reports and then through whistleblowers we got a lot of anecdotal information that's quite frightening and raising questions of legality. So I figured out that I ought to have these ministries speak for themselves so that's why we sent the letter to them.  CONAN: And why those particular six ministries?  Sen. GRASSLEY: Because those were the ones that we got the most anecdotal evidence on that maybe something was not being done right, in other words, money that is trusted to the non-profits being used for the non-profit purpose.  CONAN: In other words - not to put too fine a point on it, are you concerned that these ministers are using this money to enrich themselves at the expense of their mission?  Sen. GRASSLEY: I think that you can look at that from the standpoint of the complaints we got about $23,000 marble commodes, jet - corporate jets, Bentleys and Rolls-Royces. When you think about Jesus coming into Jerusalem on a simple donkey then don't you wonder why ministers today need Bentleys.  CONAN: Some would wonder whether - no matter their opinion on that question - they question whether it's the government's job to tell them what to write in on.  Sen. GRASSLEY: Okay, that's a legitimate question. We are not looking at the doctrine of the ministry. This is simply a tax issue. No different for churches than it is for any of the other nonprofit organizations. Like the Smithsonian head had campaign lifestyle, that was a tax issue. Like an American University president paid for his son's engagement and wedding, that was a tax issue. If these people are not using their money for the purpose that it was set up for, it's a tax issue as well. The only difference between churches and other non-profits on tax issue is only the amount of reporting. They - churches do a little less reporting. But understand, this has nothing to do with doctrine. It's not a First Amendment issue. This is enforcement of the tax laws.  CONAN: If it's enforcement of the tax laws how come it's not the job of the IRS?  Sen. GRASSLEY: It is the job of the IRS. I said, first of all, that the - that churches report a little bit less so maybe the IRS has a little less information that's a fact we got to take into consideration. But also we found that the IRS over the last five years wasn't doing its job of policing nonprofits. And as a result of my work, the IRS has put a lot more resources into nonprofit oversight.  CONAN: Let me ask you a question about jurisdiction now with Democrats, of course, in the majority in the U.S. Senate. How does a member of the minority start an investigation like this?  Sen. GRASSLEY: Well, number one, great cooperation as I have with the new chairman, Max Baucus. We work together, and when I was chairman we worked together. And he's not necessarily a part of my specific letter writing, but he's fully backed me up on my oversight responsibilities and then that does bring up why we're looking into it. And so the FDA - don't forget Congress -part of its job is the constitutional responsibility of oversight, the checks

Question: States Unite On Reopening Economies: 'Science — Not Politics — Will Guide' Decisions

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

The governors of New York and California — two of the largest economies in the U.S. — have formed alliances with their respective neighbors to coordinate an eventual easing of COVID-19 shutdowns, posing a potential new obstacle to President Trump's plans to restart the national economy. In separate announcements, the governors said they've agreed to let science, not politics, determine when to lift social and business restrictions. "Any plan to reopen society MUST be driven by data and experts, not opinion and politics," New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said shortly before announcing the move. He added, "We will work together as a region." The governors say the measures they're taking to combat COVID-19 and slow its spread won't be effective unless they're all on the same page. But the president — who had previously spoken of restarting the U.S. economy by Easter — insists that he has the authority to open states' economies. One of the coalitions aligns New York with New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Delaware. In the other, California is collaborating with its coastal neighbors, Oregon and Washington, to decide when they will lift stay-at-home orders and other restrictions. Hours after Cuomo and his fellow governors announced their plans, Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker became the first Republican in either coalition, aligning his state with its neighbors in the Northeast. "Our residents' health comes first," Govs. Gavin Newsom of California, Kate Brown of Oregon and Jay Inslee of Washington said in a joint statement. "As home to one in six Americans and gateway to the rest of the world, the West Coast has an outsized stake in controlling and ultimately defeating COVID-19." "Health outcomes and science — not politics — will guide these decisions," the Western governors said. They cited goals such as protecting vulnerable people from both COVID-19 and the effects of shutdown orders; ensuring health care systems can care for those who may become sick; and developing a system for testing, tracking and isolating people who have been either infected by or exposed to the coronavirus. The governors in the Eastern coalition say they're forming a council that will judge potential steps toward restoring business as usual, with each state contributing three people to the group: one public health expert, one economics expert and the governor. "New Jersey is the densest state in America, and we're in that corridor that is so unique," Gov. Phil Murphy said during a conference call. "It was imperative not to just do the things that we needed to do within our four walls as we closed our state down, but to do it in close coordination with New York and Pennsylvania and Delaware and Connecticut." Trump responded to reports earlier Monday about governors being the ones who decide when to "open up the states," saying via Twitter, "Let it be fully understood that this is incorrect.... ....It is the decision of the President, and for many good reasons. With that being said, the Administration and I are working closely with the Governors, and this will continue." The president, who faces a reelection vote in less than seven months, has shown an eagerness to restart the U.S. economy, which has suffered an extraordinary and painfully swift downturn because of the COVID-19 pandemic. In the past three weeks, some 17 million people have filed for unemployment benefits. As the governors announced the new coalitions, some of them characterized the moves as an example of how states, not the federal government, have led the U.S. response to the coronavirus. "Throughout the crisis, the governors are the ones who have been showing great leadership and taking action to keep our residents safe," Rhode Island Gov. Gina Raimondo said. "I think it's only appropriate that we do the same thing now by coming together and showing regional leadership to reopen the economy." More than 570,000 people in the U.S. are confirmed to be infected with the coronavirus. Of that total, 23,000 people have died, including more than 10,000 in New York, according to a COVID-19 dashboard created by Johns Hopkins University's Whiting School of Engineering. New Jersey is reporting some 65,000 cases, followed by Massachusetts and Pennsylvania — each with around 25,000 cases.

Question: Fundraising Site For Teachers Illuminates Classroom Disparities

What happens when a teacher wants to assign an extra book for class, but the school can't afford a copy for every student? For Dana Vanderford, an English teacher at L.W. Higgins High School in New Orleans, the book was Eric Schlosser's Fast Food Nation. Buying enough copies for her class would have cost more than $800. Not an option. "I get $80 a year to buy resources for my classroom," Vanderford says. "And I have 90 students per semester. So that $80 doesn't go very far." In the past, teachers in Vanderford's position had a few options: Pay the costs themselves, ask students to pay, or somehow try to raise the money. In 2000, DonorsChoose.org made that "somehow" a little easier. Public school teachers can use the site to "crowdfund" classroom project ideas, raising donations to pay for everything from basic supplies to technology upgrades, field trips, and more. Five days. That's how long it took Vanderford to raise the money she needed to buy a copy of Fast Food Nation for each of her students. For the past 15 years, DonorsChoose.org has helped teachers like Vanderford raise more than $310 million — with more than half of those donations going to America's poorest schools. It's a drop in the bucket of the more than $600 billion spent on K-12 education by localities, states and the federal government, but Charles Best — DonorsChoose.org's founder/CEO and a former high school social studies teacher — thinks its impact goes beyond delivering classroom supplies. During his keynote address at this year's SXSWedu, Best highlighted some of the many ways he sees DonorsChoose.org shaping education. One example: When a teacher posts her idea online, the site collects dozens of variables about the teacher's project, school and students. Why is that a good thing? More than a year ago, that data became publicly available. And with it, Donorschoose.org can not only reveal what classroom projects are popular but also illuminate the vast disparities in resources among public schools. The overwhelming majority of students benefiting from projects posted on DonorsChoose.org are low-income. The poorest schools also have a higher success rate when it comes to funding their projects — 70 percent versus the 66 percent average among all projects. The site has also been instrumental in helping to channel donations to schools hit hard by natural disaster. Below is a map of every successfully funded DonorsChoose.org project along the Gulf Coast in the year before (2005) and after (2006) Hurricane Katrina. By Popular Demand The structure of DonorsChoose.org allows the public to decide which projects get funded. Requests for books and efforts to improve literacy are the most successful with nearly $75 million in donations — more than math and science projects combined. Below is a table of the 10 most requested books on DonorsChoose.org. California and New York top the list for total donations received by a state, but, after controlling for population differences, Idaho and Hawaii tie for first place with $0.45 per resident. Also high on the list is Utah, where 60 percent of adults belong to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and are expected to donate 10 percent of their income to charity. In most states, large differences remain in the amount of public money sent to the lowest-income schools versus the highest-income schools. Funding tends to be based on property taxes, and states struggle to address the inequity. DonorsChoose.org gives teachers at high-poverty schools access to an alternative source of funding. But it can also be a lot of work: From creating and publicizing the online request to following up a successful campaign with personalized thank-you notes from every student. Tiffany Smith began using DonorsChoose.org as a science teacher at H.W. Byers High School in Holly Springs, Mississippi (population 7,500). She started fundraising for some classroom essentials: "[My first project] was literally for pens, pencils, crayons, glue and rulers. Just very minimal stuff," says Smith. "I never realized schools wouldn't have these basic necessities for the kids." Now in her second year of teaching, Smith has already funded 13 different projects, buying a pair of iPads, a printer and equipment for dissections in her anatomy and physiology class — something her students had never experienced. That's a lot of earthworms, rats and sheep eyeballs that Smith never could have paid for on her own.

Question: Ranky Tanky's Self-Titled Debut Makes Traditional Gullah Songs New

The Gullah people of coastal Georgia and South Carolina trace their language and culture back to their West and Central African ancestors. Among the Gullah's unique contributions to African-American culture is a deeply distilled repertoire of spirituals and work songs. On the self-titled debut by the quintet Ranky Tanky, Gullah songs are lively, soulful honey to the ears.  The four core members of the band started as a jazz combo, fresh out of college in Charleston, S.C. Three of them grew up in Gullah country, steeped in its creolized cuisine, lifestyle and arts. But the idea of creating a band dedicated to Gullah songs only came together when they recruited Quiana Parler, their lead vocalist. Parler is Gullah herself, and an alumnus of American Idol as well. Some of the oldest known African-American spirituals come from the Gullah, and they reflect a life of faith under harsh circumstances. On "Turtle Dove," Parler sings: "When I get to heaven I know the rules; kick 'em right down to the bathing pool." But even when the lyrics are sad or stern, Ranky Tanky brings playfulness and warmth to the material, blending in elements of blues, jazz and R&B. On "Sink 'Em Low," a simple but powerful rendition of a traditional work song, Parler infuses the solemn lyrics with funk and soul. "Sink 'em low, boy, sink 'em low," she sings with joy. "Sink 'em low, boy, raise 'em high." Everyone pulls their weight in this tight, efficient combo. But Quiana Parler's vocal is in a league of its own. With her range, power and control of subtle ornamentation, she could bring down the house all by herself. Her voice is the primary instrument of "Been in The Storm," backed by sparse, reverent drums. Ranky Tanky brings freshness and uplift to overlooked Americana. In a pop music milieu ever hungry for newness, this group proves that the right musicians can make the past new all over again.

Question: Rocky Terrain Slows Construction in Afghanistan

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

Six years after the fall of the Taliban, reconstruction in Afghanistan is slow at best.  Key projects like a paved "ring road" to link Afghanistan's provinces are far from complete, despite billions of construction dollars pouring into the country each year from three dozen nations. Growing insecurity caused by insurgents is partly to blame. But terrain and tradition are often far greater obstacles. In northeastern Badakhshan, dusty Afghan villagers are using shovels and pickaxes to turn a tiny mountain trail into a rare road linking the northern and southern parts of the province. It's a painfully slow process. The men beat at the mountain to widen the trail into a single-lane road made of rocks and dirt. Debris is flung some 600 feet below into the riverbed. A stubborn outcrop is dealt with more forcefully, using dynamite provided by the German team supervising this project. "They drill the holes like a half meter deep, then they have plastic bags with dynamite powder and they push it in with a wooden stick," says Joerg Yoder, a manager for GTZ who is overseeing this 10-month-old road project. The project costs half a million dollars and will eventually stretch six miles. Yoder admits the new road will be a far cry from any autobahn back home. But Abdul Rahzed Rohani, the crew foreman, says the road is a lifesaver for his village. He says trucks will use the road to supply villages like Farghambol year round. Rohani says that the $3 each of his workers earns daily is a small fortune by local standards. "It's just so little what is here. You really have to do so many things just to get development started. Yeah, you really have to start from scratch here. Nothing has ever been done here," says Thomas Zahneisen, the civilian in charge of the German provincial reconstruction team. This project is like most across Badakhshan — developing unpaved roads, wells and small bridges — all modest by Western standards. But each is vitally important to the inhabitants of this mountainous region, because the nearly one million Afghans here live pretty much like their ancestors did centuries ago. Many families live in mud homes without electricity or running water or cars. They spend half the year growing food for themselves and their livestock so they can survive the other half of the year when they are socked in by snow. Yoder, the program advisor for GTZ, a state-run, German development company, says it's impossible to meet Western expectations of how fast development should happen. Let alone to get villagers to follow standard business practices. "We will not be able to shape Afghanistan according to our wishes," Yoder says. "That is one of the principal problems here. It's still an oral culture — many people do not know how to write and read and it's a very slow step-by-step process to introduce a requirement, like an official bill."  Afghans, too, are frustrated with the slow pace of reconstruction.  When Yoder and colleague Marina Kielpinski come to Yawan, not far from the border with the former Soviet republic of Tajikistan, the local police chief does something unthinkable by Afghan standards of hospitality — he launches into a tirade over a badly needed bridge before greeting the visitors with steaming cups green tea. Police Chief Najibullah quickly apologizes. He says he's upset because he worries a 90-foot bridge proposed for Yawan's river won't be done before the weather turns bad.  The bridge will connect seven northern districts with the rest of the province. Najibullah says it will also save Yawan's children and livestock from drowning, as sometimes happens here. Kielpinski reminds the chief that while the Czechs and Germans are paying some $90,000 for the project, it's up to the villagers to build the bridge. "The most important thing now is to select exactly the right place to start excavation and they can start now — the money is here and the project is ready to move forward," says Kielpinski. "But only the people who live here can tell us exactly where the water rises and how it will be in the springtime." The village elders and German team eventually head to the river and agree on a spot for the bridge. The German team says that with a little luck and local elbow grease, the bridge could be ready by winter. STEVE INSKEEP, host:  Let's go next to Afghanistan, where lasting progress can be hard to find. It's been six years since the fall of the Taliban, and reconstruction is described as slow at best. Projects like a paved road to link the country's provinces are far from complete, despite billions of construction dollars pouring into Afghanistan year after year from three dozen nations. Growing insecurity caused by insurgents is partly to blame, but only partly.

Question: As States Reopen, Do They Have The Workforce They Need To Stop Coronavirus Outbreaks?

An NPR survey of state health departments shows that the national coronavirus contact tracing workforce has tripled in the past six weeks, from 11,142 workers to 37,110. Yet given their current case counts, only seven states and the District of Columbia are staffed to the level that public health researchers say is needed to contain outbreaks.  Contact tracers are public health workers who reach out to each new positive coronavirus case, track down their contacts, and connect both the sick person and those who were exposed with the services they need to be able to safely isolate themselves. This is an essential part of stamping out emerging outbreaks. To understand how that picture had changed since NPR's initial contact tracing survey in late April, NPR reached out again to all state health departments, as well as Washington, D.C., and the U.S. territories. In total, NPR reporters were able to assemble data from all 50 states along with D.C., Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands. Many states are still planning to hire more contact tracers, reassign existing government staff, or train outside volunteers. Some already have a bank of trained staff or volunteers in waiting, able to pivot to tracing contacts if new positive cases spike. Many of them are relying on the National Guard, AmeriCorps, volunteers or part-time workers to fill these ranks. With the plans to hire and reserve staff, the national workforce grows to 68,525 contact tracers.  "I think it's amazing that the workforce scale-up has gone this far in such a short period of time," says Crystal Watson, a senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security and a lead author of the center's white paper on contact tracing capacity. "But I'm also — at the same time — concerned, because we're seeing these increases in case numbers in a lot of different states." Tom Frieden, former director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, agrees that NPR's survey shows some progress has been made, but that it's "not nearly enough and not nearly fast enough."  Public health experts say tracing the contacts of each positive case and asking them to quarantine is crucial for allowing communities to safely reopen — those who are sick or have been exposed stay home while the rest of the public begins to return to normal life. If communities don't have enough tracers to quickly call and investigate each positive case and to effectively follow up with contacts, that strategy to curb transmission falls apart.  In the U.S., many places are reopening before fully establishing the robust tracing system public health leaders were calling for months ago. "We're reopening before we have the system ready to stop cases from becoming clusters and clusters from becoming outbreaks," Frieden says.  How many tracers is enough? To estimate how many tracers is enough for each state, NPR analyzed each state's current need based on the number of cases in each state over the past 14 days, using the Contact Tracing Workforce Estimator developed by the Fitzhugh Mullan Institute for Health Workforce Equity at The George Washington University. The analysis assumes workers are calling 10 contacts per case and that contacts are followed up with every other day. Ten contacts may be a conservative estimate, considering that many places have begun to ease social distancing measures, and when people go out to restaurants or shopping, the number of contacts can grow quickly. The analysis also assumes that tracers reach 45% of contacts, since sometimes it's not possible to track people down — that's a midpoint of three strategies outlined in a contact tracing workforce tool recently published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Those inputs are designed to represent the real-world challenges contact tracers might have in reaching all possible contacts. "It's hard to get a hold of people," says Watson. "There are many other factors that may make people unwilling or unable to do this, including its historic issues with trust in government [...] I do think any amount of contact tracing does help." The results of NPR's analysis show that several states have enough contact tracers estimated to be needed to investigate their current burden of recent cases. Seven states — Alaska, Massachusetts, Montana, New York, Oregon, Vermont and West Virginia — along with Washington, D.C., and the territories of Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands, currently have enough tracers, given local transmission. Six more states — Colorado, Connecticut, Idaho, North Dakota, South Carolina and Washington — have enough when reserve staff are included in their staffing count. Thirty-seven states do not have enough contact tracers, according to NPR's analysis. Still, many states indicated that they felt they did have enough tracers to reach out quickly. With 1,500 contact tracers, a spokesperson for the Florida Department of Health wrote to NPR, "This is successfully meeting the current operatio

Question: 'Mystery Mass' Mystery Partly Solved By Australian College Student

represent the subtitle to find a news title on npr with less details

Science isn't our strongest subject, so we hope that some of you and perhaps our friends at the 13.7 blog can add some further insights into the news that Australian college student Amelia Fraser-McKelvie has helped solve a "cosmic mystery of massive dimensions," as The Sydney Morning Herald puts it. Here's how Australia's ABC News puts it:  "A Melbourne student has discovered a part of the universe that  astrophysicists have spent decades trying to find. ... Many have long thought the universe has a greater mass than they can actually  see, but have been unable to prove it is there. Ms. Fraser-McKelvie did a targeted X-ray search for the matter and found it."  Fraser-McKelvie, 22, tells the Morning Herald that scientists had theorized about the so-called mystery mass — speculating that it might have "settled  in filaments that extend between clusters of galaxies." This summer (in Australia) during an internship in astrophysics, she analyzed data from X-ray astronomy work and found those filaments. Now, she tells the Morning Herald, "I feel really lucky."
