Question: Trump Consistently Bends Reality, Sells His Narrative In Interviews For Woodward Book

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

No reader should skip the prologue to Bob Woodward's new book on President Trump, because the author puts his best scene on its first page. Woodward's Rage opens on the Oval Office, where the two top officials from the president's national security team are telling him that COVID-19 is a major threat to the U.S. and far worse than the flu. "This will be the biggest national security threat you face in your presidency," says Robert O'Brien, the national security adviser (Trump's fourth). "This is going to be the roughest thing you face." O'Brien's statement makes the president's head "pop up," but it is immediately seconded by O'Brien's principal deputy, Matt Pottinger, whom Woodward reports was also present. Pottinger is a China scholar and former intelligence officer in the Marines who had lived in China seven years and spoke fluent Mandarin. The date on this conversation leaps out from the book's very first sentence: Jan. 28. O'Brien and Pottinger were elevating the issue because days earlier Trump had dismissed the virus at a conference in Switzerland: "It's one person coming in from China," Trump had said. "We have it under control. It's going to be just fine. We've already handled it pretty well." Three days later, urged on by O'Brien and Pottinger and a chorus of scientists including Dr. Anthony Fauci and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Dr. Robert Redfield, Trump ordered a shutdown of travel from China to the United States. He would later claim, in interviews with Woodward and elsewhere, that he made this move in defiance of his closest advisers. Woodward has Trump saying there had been a score of advisers present and "everyone in that room except me did not want to have that ban." "I always wanted to play it down" Woodward also makes clear that Trump knew early on that the disease could be spread without physical contact and could be transmitted by people showing no symptoms of infection. "It goes through air," he told Woodward in a Feb. 7 phone call not previously reported. "So that's a tricky one. That's a very delicate one. It's also more deadly than even your strenuous flus." At another point in the Feb. 7 conversation, Trump says COVID-19 could be deadlier than the flu, "maybe five times more deadly." Stunning, because throughout the crucial month of February the president was sending a totally different signal to the American public. The same week he talked to Woodward, Trump in public uttered his now infamous lines about how "when it gets a little warmer it miraculously goes away" and "I think it's going to work out good, we only have 11 cases and they're all getting better." Throughout the month, he bragged of limiting the invader to a handful of cases that were "all getting better" and would "soon be down to zero." On Feb. 28, at a rally in South Carolina, he called Democrats' criticism of his handling of the virus "their new hoax." Attendees at the rally told reporters they thought the whole story of the virus was a media creation. The following day, the first U.S. death was announced, and Trump opened his news conference talking about progress in Afghanistan. Woodward quotes a subsequent interview on March 19, wherein Trump says: "I always wanted to play it down. I still like playing it down, because I don't want to create a panic." Where did Woodward get these arresting statements? They were part of a series of interviews Trump granted the venerable journalist from The Washington Post — a total of 17 in all, stretching from December to late July. Was there no one in Trump's communications office to question this commitment of the president's time? Who but Trump could have arranged 17 interviews with a man who had written critically of eight presidents, including an earlier book characterizing Trump as unprepared and unfit for his office, a national disaster waiting to happen? "Pray to God we don't have a crisis," Woodward said when Fear first appeared. Curiously, the earlier Woodward book featured zero interview material from Trump — there had been no interview. The president said his staff had not told him of Woodward's many requests. This time around, as though to compensate and produce a better narrative, Trump goes to the opposite extreme. ("Let's see if we can get a good book," he says. "That is, if you're willing to write it.") At times the interviews are in the White House, at times they are impromptu calls the president places to Woodward's personal phone. At times, they seem serious interchanges; at times they are show-and-tell sessions to win the journalist over. Trump has what Woodward calls "props," such as a stack of parchment signifying judicial appointments, or a wall poster-size picture of Trump with Kim Jong Un. On one occasion, Trump orders his aide Dan Scavino to screen a video of Sen. Kamala Harris and other Democrats watching the State of the Union speech. Trump shouts: "Hate! See the hate!"

Question: Investigator Persists in Dogged Search for Vivi

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

Vivi, a whippet, disappeared six months ago after escaping from her crate at New York's JFK Airport. Since then, investigator Bonnie Folz -- owner of Pawsative Dog Training -- has spent at least four hours a day coordinating the search for the missing show dog. Folz speaks with Melissa Block. MELISSA BLOCK, Host:  The hunt is still on for Vivy, the missing whippet show dog, who escaped from her crate six months ago at Kennedy Airport in New York. She was on her way back home to California from the Westminster Dog Show when she got loose. When she escaped in February, she was wearing a dark brown and black woolen coat and a broad collar. There have been numerous Vivy sightings in parks around Queens, New York. And a small, but fervent army of volunteers is trying to track her down. Bonnie Folds is one of those leading the hunt for Vivy, and Miss Folds, where has she been spotted recently? BONNIE FOLDS: Our recent sighting has been in Forest Park, which is in Glendale in Queens, she apparently was startled by someone, just walking through one of the paths, and took off like a shot. Usually that's her MO, that she runs real fast when somebody sees her or approaches her. BLOCK: And these are fast dogs? FOLDS: They're extremely fast. Whippets can probably run about 30 miles an hour or so. So, to try and have somebody try and catch her is definitely not going to happen. BLOCK: And how would you know that it's her, or would you just assume that if there's a whippet on the loose, it has to be Vivy. FOLDS: Well, we do have a couple of different things that we ask the person. You know, what does she look like? How tall is she? The colored markings that she has. She has distinct markings, of course the running very fast also, is, the clue. But, a whippet is a very distinct looking dog, just picture a greyhound in miniature. BLOCK: And what are her markings? FOLDS: She has black and brown brindle markings around her ears area. She's got a nice, big spot on her left side. And she also has a spot on her right side. It goes straight down to her paw. And she's all white. BLOCK: Except for those markings? FOLDS: Yeah, except for those markings. BLOCK: Would you assume at this point, she's been gone for so long, that's assuming she is still alive, that she is feral at point, and that it would be really hard to bring her in, if you find her. FOLDS: Well, if she's, if, if she, not if she, she got obviously is feral right now. She's surviving just fine. What we're going to need to do is either lure her into a high fenced area and close the gate behind her. That would be a great scenario. Otherwise, we just have to, pretty much go slowly. If you happen to see her, lay flat on the ground. Don't make any eye contact. Don't go directly towards her. You have to make believe that she's not even there. Other ways, we're also have feeding and watering stations. And we do have motion sensor cameras, that we've been using as well. And hopefully, we're going to get a shot of Vivy. Once that takes place, we can bring in a trap. Now, we've used dog traps, humane traps, in the past, and she's not gone into them. BLOCK: So, you know she's still out there. FOLDS: I believe that she is. I just can't believe, unless I actually see a dog and actually see Vivy, that this is not her that people are seeing. BLOCK: I'm sure you hear this that you know why, why all this attention for this one missing show dog when there are thousands and thousands of abandoned animals all over the place, and nobody pays any attention? FOLDS: I don't know. There's tons of lost animals out there, and we were fortunate to help quite a few animals that had gotten lost. There was a Pomeranian that was running loose in the middle of street. So, we rescued him. There were four kittens in the dumpster that were saved. We just saved nine puppies from Montessori Cemetery. There was a Dalmatian that I got a phone call on, you know, come get. So, other animals have been saved during the search. But, I don't why Vivy has just become, you know, I guess the Saint of the Lost Dogs. BLOCK: Bonnie Folds, thanks so much and best of luck. FOLDS: Thank you so much. BLOCK: Bonnie Folds, who's looking for Vivy, the missing whippet show dog. Vivy escaped from her crate at New York's Kennedy Airport back in February.

It's ScuttleButton Time!

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

The message coming from the Occupy Wall Street folks is clear.  They are sick and tired of easy ScuttleButton puzzles week in and week out, and they're not going to leave until their demands are met. I hear you. This week's offering is more challenging, and that should be good news for the 99% who are protesting. But first, of course, you need to know how to play the game. Every   Wednesday on this site I put up a  vertical display of buttons.  Your   job is to simply take one word  (or   concept)  per  button, add   'em up, and,     hopefully, you will  arrive at a   famous   name or a familiar expression. (And       seriously, by familiar, I mean it's something     that      more than one      person  on Earth would recognize.) For     years, a   correct   answer chosen at   random would get his or her    name  posted in this   column, an incredible honor in itself.  Now the   stakes are  even  higher.  Thanks  to the efforts of the folks at Talk of the Nation, that person also  hears their name mentioned on the Wednesday show and receives a Political Junkie t-shirt in the bargain.  Is this a great country or what? You can't  use the   comments box at the bottom  of  the page    for your answer.  Send   submission (plus your   name and   city/state — you   won't   win without that) to  politicaljunkie@npr.org.

By     the way, I      usually reveal the answer — and announce the winner —     on   Wednesday's Junkie segment on TOTN.  So you should get your   answer   in by   Tuesday. Here's the answer to the last puzzle: Kennedy for President 1968 (photo of RFK) — Bobby Kennedy sought the Democratic nomination until his assassination in June of that year. Carol Moseley Braun/Democrat U.S. Senate — An Illinois Democrat, she became the nation's first (and only) black woman elected to the Senate in 1992. Kennedy for President in 1980 (photo of EMK) — Ted Kennedy challenged President Jimmy Carter for the Democratic nomination that year. Alice Sachs for Assembly — A leading Reform Democrat in Manhattan and a constant foe of Tammany Hall, Sachs ran often for the state Assembly in the 1950s and '60s but never won. So, when you combine Bob + Carol + Ted + Alice, you    kinda get ... and this will come as a shock to you ... Bob, Carol, Ted & Alice.

Question: Democrats Say White House Is Interfering As Russia Review Becomes A Criminal Case

Updated at 4:37 p.m. ET The Justice Department's review of the origins of the Russia probe has become a criminal investigation, a source familiar with the matter confirmed to NPR. It is unclear what prompted the shift from an administrative review to a formal criminal investigation, when the change took place or what potential crime is under investigation.  The change drew immediate criticism from Democrats, who have accused Attorney General William Barr of turning the Justice Department into a political weapon for President Trump. "These reports, if true, raise profound new concerns that the Department of Justice under Attorney General William Barr has lost its independence and become a vehicle for President Trump's political revenge," said the Democratic chairmen of the House Judiciary and Intelligence committees, Reps. Jerry Nadler of New York and Adam Schiff of California. "If the Department of Justice may be used as a tool of political retribution or to help the president with a political narrative for the next election, the rule of law will suffer new and irreparable damage," they said.  Barr tapped the U.S. attorney for Connecticut, John Durham, in May to lead the review. It wasn't immediately clear whether Durham has impaneled a grand jury or what crime may be suspected. Barr told Congress earlier this year that he wants to understand how and why investigators made the decisions they did in 2016, when the FBI began to investigate what it later verified was a broad campaign of "active measures" by Russia targeting the U.S. presidential election. Former special counsel Robert Mueller later documented that interference in hundreds of pages of court documents and in his final report. Thirty-four individuals, including 25 Russian nationals, as well as three Russian entities, were indicted in the investigation.   Mueller's report documented many connections between Trump's campaign in 2016 and the Russian interference but did not establish a conspiracy to throw the election. The investigation also documented a number of episodes following the inauguration of possible obstruction of justice, but Mueller did not make a charging decision one way or the other because of Justice Department policy that a sitting president cannot be indicted. Barr, however, concluded that the evidence did not establish that the president obstructed justice.  Black eye for the FBI At the same time, a number of embarrassing subplots for the FBI and the Justice Department drew intense criticism from Trump and his supporters, who sought to fault investigators and undermine the basis for the Russia investigation.  A key special agent and a top lawyer mocked Trump in text messages on their official government phones during the time they were carrying on an extramarital affair. They were removed, as were other insiders suspected of political bias. The director and deputy director of the FBI also were removed in the midst of a broader months-long political war over federal law enforcement. Barr, who became attorney general in this context, told Congress that he wanted to understand why there had been what he called "spying" on Trump's campaign in 2016 and why neither the candidate nor his top aides were briefed by the FBI about its discoveries about Russian interference. Trump and Republicans also have pressed Barr to look into a number of other chapters from the imbroglio, including the FBI's use of confidential human sources; conspiracy theories involving the 2016 cyberattack on the Democratic National Committee; Hillary Clinton and others.  It isn't clear what Durham is or isn't investigating or whether he has identified criminal activity. But the Justice Department said in a letter to Congress in June that the Durham  review was "broad in scope and multifaceted, and is intended to illuminate open questions regarding the activities of U.S. and foreign intelligence services as well as non-governmental organizations and individuals." But the escalation of Durham's inquiry into a criminal case is politically important to Republicans, who call the Russia investigation the work of "biased" conspirators within a "deep state" who abused their powers out of political animus toward Trump and his campaign.  The top Republican on the House Judiciary Committee, Doug Collins of Georgia, welcomed the decision to upgrade the Durham probe to a criminal investigation. "The special counsel's multi-million dollar investigation concluded that no Americans conspired with Russia in 2016," Collins said.  "As a result of the empty accusations about this president and what the inspector general found to be political bias at the top tiers of the FBI, Americans have unanswered questions about how the Russia investigation began." Connection to the Ukraine affair The Durham investigation also has become politically important to the White House's defense of its actions in the Ukraine affair.  Acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney and other allies of Trump have said

The Chinese government announced this week that it will be carbon neutral by 2060. President Xi Jinping made a surprise commitment to drastically reduce its emissions to zero, after sustained pressure to take action on climate change. But experts have warned that the country offered few specifics about how it would reach this goal. Still, the news adds to increased pressure for the U.S. to commit to a similar goal. After weeks of civil unrest in Belatrus over an illegitimate re-election, President Alexander Lukashenko held a secret inauguration ceremony. Reports of the ceremony sparked new protests throughout the country and global condemnation. Both the European Union and the U.S. State Department are no longer recognizing Lukashenko as the legitimate president of the country. Alexei Navalny has been released from a German hospital after weeks of intensive care. The political rival of Russian President Vladimir Putin is believed to have been poisoned by a military-grade nerve agent. According to the German government and French and Swedish laboratories, the toxin used to poison the political leader was similar to those used in previous poisonings. The Kremlin has denied that Navalny was poisoned.   We wrap up all the week’s top global news and answer your questions.

Question: Do We Even Know How To Socialize Anymore?

Zoom meetings. Virtual happy hours. Facetime dates. We've been living in a pandemic world for over a year now, and for better or worse, many of us are used to our new social routines.  But as vaccinations ramp up and restrictions begin to loosen across the country, the new question is: Are we ready? After so much time apart, do we even know how to socialize in person anymore?  We haven't returned to "normal" yet, but it feels like things are beginning to shift: We can almost hear the backyard barbecues; the cubicle-to-cubicle chatter; those awkward, horrible, adorable first date conversations over candlelit dinner. For many, just the thought is anxiety-inducing.  Celeste Headlee, journalist, author of We Need to Talk: How to Have Conversations That Matter, and all-around conversational wiz, says those feelings of trepidation are only natural.  "Social skills are, after all, skills," Headlee says, so it makes sense to feel rusty when they've been out of use.  But, she reminds us, humans were built to socialize. "You have 300,000 years of evolution helping you do this and helping you do it better than any species on the planet." Read on for Headlee's answers to your social woes, and top tips for getting back out there.     Embrace the awkward.  If you've been working remotely and you're worried about how to approach that first conversation back at the office, chances are you're not the only one feeling it — science tells us we all tend to be more self-conscious than necessary in new social situations. Headlee suggests addressing the elephant in the room right away. "Be honest about it," Headlee says, because "sometimes when you name something, it takes away its power." Acknowledging the awkward with something as simple as, "So this is weird, right?" can clear the air and get everyone moving forward.   When in doubt: Ask questions, start small.  Asking open-ended questions, Headlee says, works on a few different levels: It takes pressure off you while simultaneously giving the other person room to shine and feel some of that conversation-fueled dopamine. And, added bonus, questions give you the opportunity to work on another important social skill  — listening!  Start small, and in safe, time-limited spaces if you're worried about how you'll do: Maybe practice with a friend or try a brief elevator exchange. And remember, good conversations take time.  Know your limits. It's OK if they've changed.  We all have a finite amount of social energy. And it's important to acknowledge, Headlee says, that the pandemic might have changed that barometer. "We have been under such a cognitive load over the past year or so that there just may not be the space for two things in one day," she says.  It's also possible the pandemic just revealed the real limits of your social capacity. "Two years ago, you may have just not been aware of how exhausted you were," Headlee says.   But even if you feel ready to jump back into the world with both feet, don't try to take on too much at once. The world's a changed place, and you've probably changed a bit, too. Set realistic boundaries, and pace yourself: that might mean setting a max number of activities for a weekend, having social "off-hours" or limiting how long houseguests can stay. Draw lines that serve you.  Accept what people tell you about themselves.  "I believe" is a fact, Headlee says, while "you believe," is an opinion — in other words, don't assume someone else's point of view, especially when it comes to vaccinations and socializing.  Now more than ever, safety is going to look differently for different people, and it's important to respect the boundaries people create for themselves.  For you, going mask-free indoors post-vaccination might be freeing and joyful, but for your neighbor, it could be panic-inducing. Ask ahead of time if you're unsure about mixed social situations. Don't impose your level of comfort on anyone else, and be honest (or opt out) if you feel unsafe — even when that might feel extra hard when friends and family are ready to spread hugs all around.  While the pandemic has been a source of friction between a lot of people, Headlee maintains our current moment is a great opportunity for unity. "In the end, the past year has been hard for all of us," she says. "And if nothing else, that gives us common ground to find some kind of empathy for each other."

Question: After Fighting To Go To School, A Pakistani Woman Builds Her Own

Humaira Bachal, 25, has become a crusader of sorts. She has a passion for education in a country where going door-to-door asking fathers to send their daughters to school can mean risking your life. "Education is a basic need and a fundamental right for every human being," she says. "I want to change the way my community looks at education, and I will continue to do this until my last breath." It's hard not to worry about Bachal after the shooting of Malala Yousafzai, the teenager attacked by the Taliban last October in northern Pakistan for speaking out in support of girls' education. Malala was released Friday from a British hospital and is expected to remain in Britain for at least the next few years. Bachal, meanwhile, recently starred in a documentary series in which her efforts to educate children in her Karachi neighborhood of Moach Goth were the centerpiece. Pakistan's first Oscar-winning filmmaker, Sharmeen Obaid Chinoy, made six short films over the past year, each focusing on an extraordinary Pakistani. Bachal was one of them. On screen, Bachal looks larger than life and is unnervingly bold. In person, she is barely 5 feet tall. She is self-assured, but also a little shy. She says her advocacy work actually began with herself. "After I had finished primary school, my father didn't want me to get any education," she says. "He said I was only going to get married and have children." Sneaking Off To School But Bachal and her mother had other ideas. While her mother wasn't particularly educated, her family in Iran had been. All of her mother's sisters had gone on to higher education; Bachal's mother thought her daughters should get educations, too. For three years, Bachal's mother dissembled when asked direct questions about where her daughter was all day. And for three years, while Bachal attended middle school in another part of Karachi, her father had no idea what his daughter was doing. He discovered the ruse just before Bachal was going to sit for the ninth-grade entrance examination — and Bachal said her father was furious. "He beat my mother, and he even beat me," she said. Her father was not a man of education. He drove a truck and is illiterate, and saw no reason why his daughter should waste time on school. Again, Bachal's mother intervened. She told her daughter to sit for the ninth-grade exam while she tried to calm her husband at home. When Bachal passed the examination, her father eventually relented. Ninth grade, Bachal says, opened her eyes. She looked around Moach Goth area, and all she saw were children playing in the streets. None of them were in school. None of them were studying. And Bachal, 14 years old at that time, thought that was wrong. "Education of girls — this is not just today's issue; it is a historical issue," says Roshan Chitrakar, a deputy director and program specialist in education at UNESCO in Islamabad. "One of the things we've been trying to do is bring a perspective to these people that educating a girl is a valuable investment. We have to bring some sort of change to the culture, some sort of change to the thinking of the people." Few Girls Attend School Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari vowed during a recent UNESCO event in Paris to raise $10 million to educate all Pakistani girls by 2015, but few think the goal is achievable. "Pakistan is not doing well" in this regard, Chitrakar says. "We have some improvements, but not in the way or at the pace we'd need to see change to make that goal of 2015." The numbers are stark. Pakistan spends half as much as neighboring India on education. If you are a young girl in rural Pakistan, you are unlikely ever to see the inside of a classroom. Across the country, only 57 percent of children even enroll in primary school. Fewer than half of those children complete grade five — and the numbers are even worse in the countryside. Bachal wanted to change all that — or at least do her part in her village. So she started recruiting students in her neighborhood for a small private school she had opened, and she went door-to-door to convince fathers to send their kids to school. Establishing A School In A Slum The campaign was successful. Bachal now runs a school with 22 teachers and 1,200 students. And, thanks to the Chinoy documentary, she is one of the most famous school advocates in the country — which begs the question of whether, in the wake of the Malala shooting, she's worried. "Just the opposite," she said. "I am not worried about this anymore. Now I'm not afraid. It is not just one Malala or one Bachal who has raised a voice to change this situation. There are a lot of other girls who are trying to change things. Even if they kill 100 Humairas, they won't be able to stop us."

Oct. 11 is the "International Day of the Girl" – proclaimed by the U.N. as a time to look at the challenges girls face and to promote their "empowerment" and human rights. What kind of year has it been for girls? We looked at the stories we've done over the past year, and the headlines alone captured both the tragedies and the triumphs.

Question: French-Style Chicken in a Pot

Serves 4 We developed this recipe to work with a 5- to 8-quart Dutch oven with a tight-fitting lid. If you choose not to serve the skin with the chicken, simply remove it before carving. The amount of jus will vary depending on the size of the chicken; for every 1/4 cup jus, season it with about 1/4 teaspoon lemon juice.  1 (4 1/2- to 5-pound) whole chicken, giblets discarded  Salt and ground black pepper 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 small onion, chopped medium (about 1/2 cup) 1 small celery rib, chopped medium (about 1/4 cup) 6 medium garlic cloves, peeled and trimmed 2 bay leaves 1 sprig fresh rosemary (optional) 1/2 to 1 teaspoon juice from 1 lemon 1. Adjust an oven rack to the lowest position and heat the oven to 250 degrees. Pat the chicken dry with paper towels and season with the salt and pepper. Tuck the wings behind the back.  2. Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat until just smoking. Add the chicken, breast-side down; scatter the onion, celery, garlic, bay leaves, and rosemary (if using) around the chicken. Cook until the breast is lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Using 2 large wads of paper towels, flip the chicken breast-side up and cook until the chicken and vegetables are well browned, 6 to 8 minutes.  3. Remove the Dutch oven from the heat; place a large sheet of foil over the pot and cover tightly with the lid. Transfer the pot to the oven and bake until the thickest part of the breast registers 160 to 165 degrees and the thickest part of the thigh registers 170 to 175 degrees on an instant-read thermometer, about 11/2 hours. 4. Transfer the chicken to a carving board, tent loosely with foil, and let rest 20 minutes. Meanwhile, strain the chicken juices from the pot through a fine-mesh strainer into a fat separator, pressing on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible; discard the solids (you should have about 3/4 cup juices). Allow the liquid to settle for about 5 minutes, then pour into a small saucepan and set over low heat.  5. Carve the chicken, adding any accumulated juices to the saucepan. Stir the lemon juice into the jus to taste. Serve the chicken, passing the jus separately at the table.  From The Best Chicken Recipes. Copyright © 2008 by the Editors of  Cook's Illustrated.

Question: GOP Candidates Take a Hard Line on Immigration

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

It may seem odd that illegal immigration is a burning issue in rural Iowa, or that the corn state even has a "Hispanic vote." But it is precisely the influx of immigrants into small-town America over the past decade that has fueled the current national controversy. For many Republican primary voters, combating illegal immigration is an issue second only to the war in Iraq.  At the Republican CNN/YouTube debate, one citizen-questioner drew audience applause when he asked if the candidates would pledge to "veto any immigration bill that involves amnesty for those that have come here illegally." The reference was to a sweeping Senate bill last year that would have stepped up enforcement while also legalizing millions of immigrants already in the country.  John McCain co-sponsored that bill, and he has met anger and opposition on the campaign trail because of it. When he attempted to answer the YouTube questioner by protesting, "We never proposed amnesty," a chorus of boos broke out, prompting moderator Anderson Cooper to interject, "Come on, please, let him answer."  While sticking to his view that some type of legalization will be needed eventually, McCain has made a concession to political necessity by saying that tougher enforcement is needed first. Republican pollster Whit Ayres says that those deeply opposed to illegal immigration do feel passionate, but he has polled a lot on the topic and says this intensity only goes so far. "They don't want a candidate who comes across as a fire-breathing, anti-Hispanic hater," Ayres says. "We have one of those and he has bombed. The last survey we did in South Carolina, Tom Tancredo got zero percent. Not a single respondent picked him for president."  Ayres notes the one candidate who has really soared in standings — Mike Huckabee — did so while taking the most temperate tone on immigration. He has repeatedly defended his support of in-state tuition for illegal immigrant children by saying, "You don't punish a child for the crime a parent commits. We are a better country than that." But in recent weeks, rival Mitt Romney has relentlessly badgered Huckabee for his moderate positions on immigration. He issued the race's first negative TV ad, attacking Huckabee for supporting in-state tuition for migrants and for supporting "taxpayer-funded scholarships for illegal aliens."  In a head-spinning few days, Huckabee performed a political version of Extreme Makeover. He issued a nine-point immigration plan lifted largely from a group that seeks to reduce all immigration, legal and otherwise. The man who has several times said some anti-immigration activism is motivated by prejudice then picked up an endorsement from the founder of the Minuteman Project. At their Iowa press conference, Huckabee even apologized for earlier questioning the group's freelance border-watch brigades.  Huckabee has also put out his own TV spot on immigration, in which he intones, "no to amnesty, no to sanctuary cities," but makes no mention of his oft-stated support for giving illegal immigrants a way to become citizens.  Mitt Romney and Rudolph Giuliani have had similar conversions. Giuliani, who once championed hard-working illegal immigrants as welcome in New York, recently said he would have deported them all if he could have.  Some GOP strategists worry the party risks alienating Hispanics, the country's largest and fastest-growing minority. But if that doesn't change the tone of the debate, other pressures might. "Well, in the general campaign they have to be careful," says Jack Pitney, who teaches government at Claremont-McKenna College. Pitney says immigration may be red hot among primary voters, but it falls in importance among Republicans nationally. And, he says, the bigger GOP tent includes more libertarian and business-oriented factions, which see immigration as economic necessity. "I would expect in the general election Republicans will still talk about immigration," Pitney says. "But we'll see the red-meat appeals confined to direct-mail pieces sent to Republican base voters." ROBERT SIEGEL, host:  The issue of illegal immigration ranks just after the war in Iraq for many Republican voters. That's according to a number of polls. Some of the GOP candidates have decidedly moderate records on immigration.  NPR's Jennifer Ludden reports, they've been hardening their positions to appeal to their party's base.  JENNIFER LUDDEN: It may seem odd that illegal immigration is a burning issue in rural Iowa, or that the corn state even has a Hispanic vote. But it is precisely the influx of immigrants into small-town America that fueled the current national controversy. It dominated much of the CNN/YouTube debate where average citizens ask questions via video.

E.g. ['Represent this subtitle to find a title that might be right above it on NPR:', 'Emma Moore turned 5 this year. To mark the occasion, Jaime Moore, her mother and a professional photographer, snapped portraits of her in dress-up clothes. But she wasn\'t dressed like a Disney princess. Moore dressed her daughter as real women — strong women, including Susan B. Anthony, Jane Goodall and Helen Keller. Moore re-created photographs of the famous women, encouraging Emma to mimic their poses — down to the very expressions on their faces. "I\'d been searching everywhere for new creative inspiration" for her daughter\'s fifth-year portrait, Moore says. "No matter where I looked, so many ideas were the how-tos of how to dress your little girl just like a Disney princess. Don\'t get me wrong, I love Disney princesses, but they\'re just characters, a writer\'s tale of a princess, and it really got me thinking about the real women for our girls to look up to." One goal was to get her daughter wondering about these women and what they achieved. They picked out the costume pieces together, and Moore told Emma all about each one. "She was very engaged in it, which is great for a 5-year-old," Moore says. Emma\'s favorite was Amelia Earhart, followed closely by Jane Goodall. Moore says she loves her daughter\'s expression in the Earhart portrait. "I took the shot while we were cheering, \'Emma, you just flew a plane by yourself over the ocean!\' In her eyes, I just see so much pride and confidence." Moore says 5 is a fun year for Emma, who is starting to think for herself and form her own opinions about the world. For Halloween, Emma chose to be a combination of Queen Elizabeth and Merida — her favorite Disney princess — from the movie Brave. During the shoot, Emma was shocked to learn that no woman had yet been elected president of the United States. So she and her mom decided that for her final portrait, she\'d dress as herself — as president, a role model of the future. SCOTT SIMON, HOST:  Emma Moore turned five this year. And to mark the occasion, Jaime Moore, her mother and a professional photographer, snapped portraits of her daughter in dress-up clothes. But she wasn\'t dressed like a Disney princess, but instead real women, strong women, including Amelia Earhart, Susan B. Anthony and Helen Keller. Jaime Moore joins us now from member station KUT in Austin, Texas. Thanks very much for being with us. JAMIE MOORE: Thank you so much for having me. SIMON: And why\'d you want to do that? MOORE: It really all started with her five-year portraits. I\'d been searching everywhere for a new creative inspiration. And no matter where I looked, so many of the ideas for the how-tos of how to dress your little girl - dress like a Disney princess. And don\'t get me wrong - I love Disney princesses. But, you know, they\'re just characters, a writer\'s tale of a princess. And it really got me thinking about the real women for our girls to look up to. SIMON: Were you hoping that your daughter would ask questions like, well, who is this Amelia Earhart? MOORE: Yes, exactly. We had so much fun picking out the costume pieces and for each woman\'s portrait, we would tell her about each incredible woman, \'cause she was very engaged in it, which is great for a five-year-old. SIMON: Yeah. With respect, isn\'t the point of dress-up to play? MOORE: It is. But I think at the same time, you know, five is such a fun year. She\'s beginning to think for herself, and with her own opinions and questions about the world around her. But, you know, I think every day of the week we discuss Hello Kitty, we talk about Disney princesses - her favorite right now is Merida. It\'s just something one day to do a little bit different. SIMON: I especially - I keep coming back to Amelia Earhart because I love that photo of her. How did you do that and how did Emma react? MOORE: That was actually the very first portrait that we did. And honestly, learning of Amelia Earhart seemed to be her favorite, although Jane Goodall was a close second. And personally, I love her facial expression in the photograph.

I have joked for years that our daughters dress as Angela Merkel and Aung San Suu Kyi for Halloween. So, I\'m wondering what Emma might be for Halloween. MOORE: She has an outfit that she chose that is a dress. She actually chose it because she was learning about Queen Elizabeth at the time and that\'s what we all decided that she would go as. And now she\'s changed it to Merida as well. So, she\'s going to be both. SIMON: So, like, the back is Queen Elizabeth and the front is Merida, or how is she... MOORE: I, I guess so. She\'s a very creative and independent girl herself. SIMON: Well, Happy Halloween. MOORE: Thank you. SIMON: Jamie Moore is a photographer and a mother in Austin.

Question: With $80 Million July Haul, Trump Narrows Fundraising Gap With Clinton

The fundraising gap between the Clinton and Trump campaigns shrank in July. Altogether, the Trump campaign and affiliated joint fundraising committees took in around $80 million last month, the campaign reported Wednesday, plus $2 million from Donald Trump himself. In contrast, Hillary Clinton's organization and committees brought in about $90 million in July, that campaign reported on Tuesday. That's a significantly tighter gap than in June, when Trump's total was $51 million to Clinton's $69 million. Those figures include the fundraising of both the campaigns and their joint fundraising committees, which allow rich donors to give hundreds of thousands of dollars, which then gets divided up among the campaigns, the national party committees and state parties. The Trump campaign has been boasting of how many small donations it has been receiving, saying in a Wednesday statement that those donations were up by 69 percent in July. At a Monday campaign event, Trump said his campaign had raised $35.8 million in small donations over the course of a month. Clinton's campaign committee itself reported it raised about $63 million in July. Trump's campaign release doesn't break down exactly how much the campaign itself brought in. The full July fundraising reports from both campaigns must be filed at the Federal Election Commission by Aug. 20. Clinton still has significantly more money in the bank than Trump; her campaign has $58 million on hand, compared to Trump's $37 million. However, this is a big improvement for Trump over just a couple of months ago. At the start of June, Trump had only around $1.3 million on hand, compared to Clinton's $42 million. Trump's stronger fundraising could help even out the massive advertising gap between the two candidates. Thus far, Clinton's camp has aired $68 million in ads, compared to Trump's $6 million, NBC News reported on Tuesday. Even more staggering, Clinton had reserved $98 million in TV ad time, compared to Trump's $817,000, NBC also reported.

Question: African Migrants Find An Uneasy Asylum In Israel

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

The scissors never seem to stop in Sami's barber shop off a pedestrian street in south Tel Aviv. Fresh out of the barber's chair, Philip Giray says he left Eritrea two years ago. Smugglers helped the 20-year-old cross into Sudan and Egypt. Then he snuck into Israel.  "We come here, we ask asylum here, they doesn't welcome us," Giray says. "They punish us psychological, you know?"  The number of people illegally entering Israel from Africa dropped from almost 10,000 in the first half of 2012 to just three dozen in the first six months of this year. Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, credit a new fence that stretches across the country's southern border. But Giray and some 60,000 other migrants, almost all from Sudan or Eritrea, are already living in Israel. Now the government is about to experiment with new policies designed to separate asylum seekers from the rest of Israel. Giray came before Israel built its fence. As was usual then, the Israeli military picked Giray up, took him to a detention center for a few days, then turned him loose in south Tel Aviv.  "They give us a bus ticket," he says. "I come here. I sleep over there in the park, in the street, for two months more. Then I start to work."  Israel won't deport migrants from Sudan or Eritrea because of continuing violence in the region.  But refugee advocates say the Israeli government has been slow to process applications for asylum. While people wait, the social services normally offered to refugees are unavailable. Their Israeli-issued papers say they cannot work, although the government generally looks the other way. "Israel is putting all these people in a legal limbo," says Asaf Weitzen, an attorney with the Hotline for Migrant Workers. Many of the people strolling on the street outside the barber shop are men from Eritrea or Sudan. May Golan, a young Israeli woman who has lived here her whole life, says crime has risen and the quality of life fallen since the migrants arrived. "Listen, this was never a perfect place," Golan says. "South Tel Aviv always had problems. But never we were afraid to go out of our house at 5 o'clock in the afternoon to buy milk. Never." Golan has become politically active because of this issue. She believes nobody is listening to the needs of her neighborhood.  "The Israeli government just sits quietly, holds her ears, her eyes and her mouth," she says. "I don't get (it). What are they waiting for?"  The government has done a few things that May supports. In addition to building the fence across the southern border, Israel's legislature passed a law last year that put new illegal migrants in detention for three years. But in September, Israel's supreme court overturned that law. Human rights lawyer Weitzen argued the case on behalf of detained migrants. "The day we received this ruling and read it, we thought it's extremely significant," he says. "Today, almost two months have passed and we are afraid it's less significant than we want it to be." Now the government is coming up with new plans. According to an adviser to the interior minister, Israel wants to reduce the time any new migrants spend in detention to a year or so, and move the tens of thousands of Eritreans and Sudanese already in the country to new so-called "open" detention centers while they wait for asylum claims to be processed. Food, health care and training would be provided. People could leave during the day, but would have to sleep in the centers. It's not clear how many years they would stay. Former lawmaker and former ambassador to the U.S. Danny Ayalon says such an approach would serve two purposes.  "First of all to deter other illegal work-seekers to come to Israel," Ayalon says. "And secondly to deal with those who did infiltrate in a humane way and prepare them to go back to the countries of origins, provided of course there is no life-threatening situation for them going back." The United Nations refugee agency is advising Israel on its next steps. U.N. guidelines allow the kind of centers Israel describes, if certain rights are met. The Israeli government is also looking for a third country to take migrants, and offering $5,000 to asylum seekers who are willing to leave. Yair Sheleg, a research fellow at the Israel Democracy Institute, says one reason the government doesn't want to absorb migrants from Africa is that they're not Jewish, and thus could change the country's demographics. "The Jewish people learned two important lessons from the Holocaust," Sheleg says. "On the one hand we learned the lesson (that) we should be moral, we should act morally, we should act by a universal code. The other lesson is that we have to strengthen our own national state."

Question: Why 'Dance' Is Hotter than 'Idol'

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

Tonight another season begins at the best reality series you probably never watched: Fox's So You Think You Can Dance. While American Idol gets all the attention, television critic Andrew Wallenstein says there simply isn't a better competition-based show on TV. He says that Dance succeeds because there's actual talent on display. ALEX CHADWICK, host:   Fans of "American Idol" and "Dancing with the Stars" may already be experiencing withdrawal pangs, but critic Andrew Wallenstein is feeling no pain. In fact, he says, he'd like to suggest your next TV addiction. The new season of "So You Think You Can Dance" starts tonight.  ANDREW WALLENSTEIN: Admit it. By the time the "Idol" season ends, the show has pretty much exhausted you. And "Dancing with the Stars"? Well, I find that too cheesy to bear.  (Soundbite of TV show "Dancing with the Stars")  (Soundbite of crowd cheering)  Mr. TOM BERGERON (Host, "Dancing with the Stars"): Can Kristi skate past her competition? Will Jason tower over the field? Is Cristian unwilling to face the zester by attempting a lift? Can I come up with yet another melodramatic question? The answers, when we return live.  WALLENSTEIN: But if you like either of those shows, might I suggest the Fox series, "So You Think You Can Dance"? Yes, it incorporates elements of "Idol" and "Stars," but trust me, it's the anti-"Idol" in many ways. At first blush, "So You Think You Can Dance" will seem cut from the same cloth, big stage, supermodel host, obnoxious judges. "Idol" and "Dance" actually share a producer, too, Nigel Lythgoe, who also doubles as a judge on "Dance."   The show selects 20 of the best male and female dancers from open auditions, and they pair off to perform each week. Like "Idol," the first few episodes are devoted to basically humiliating the benighted souls who never should've auditioned. But the comparison ends once the cream of the crop has been skimmed. You see, "Dance" does something "Idol" and many other TV talent shows fail to do, find actual talent. Is there anyone on Earth watching "Idol" who thinks they are witnessing the creme de la creme of undiscovered singing talent out there? Yeah. Thought so. That said, as "Dance" host, Cat Deeley, notes here, it takes more than skill to stand out on this show.  Ms. CAT DEELEY (Host, "So You Think You Can Dance"): Obviously, technically they've got to be brilliant with what they do, because we're asking them to cope with all different genres and styles, which is something that, professionally, they would never get asked to do. But we also want them to have that little something special, that star quality, that little bit of fairy dust that's almost indefinable.  WALLENSTEIN: Charm aside, the "Dance" contestants will amaze you. It's not just the athleticism. The interesting thing about this show is that it tests versatility. A master of one genre of dance has to demonstrate their proficiency in the rest, and the diversity on display is remarkable. The show veers from ballroom to jazz to hip-hop to contemporary seamlessly.   Sure, "Dancing with the Stars" mixes is up a little, too, but come on. Watching a world-class dancer drag a D-list celebrity around the floor is like watching a Ferrari hitched to a wheel chair. "So You Think You Can Dance" doesn't bother with the celebrity gimmick, and that's the best thing of all. This is a show that is really and truly about the craft of dance. I've never really appreciated it as an art form before this show. Whoever thought a lowbrow genre like reality TV could teach me about the highbrow arts?  (Soundbite of music)  CHADWICK: Andrew Wallenstein, he's deputy editor of the Hollywood Reporter.  (Soundbite of music)  CHADWICK: And there's more to come on Day to Day.

Question: What If The Polls Are Wrong Again? 4 Scenarios For What Might Happen In The Elections

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

There's a lot that can happen Tuesday, the culmination of a long midterm election campaign that will provide the first nationwide measure of the U.S. electorate since Donald Trump was elected president. One narrative has become dominant: that Democrats are likely to gain control of the House and Republicans hold the Senate, if not expand their majority there. That narrative is based largely on national polls, and caution should be urged. Pollsters have made a lot of adjustments to hopefully correct what they got wrong in 2016, but they can't tell you precisely who is going to show up to vote. What's more, there have been far fewer statewide and district-specific surveys than in past midterm elections. And, as it is, there are data both parties can take solace in that buoy their respective cases. So everyone should be prepared for surprises — because there always are some. That's the beauty of campaigns and voting. Here are four scenarios for how election night might play out and what each could mean. 1. Democrats win the House, and Republicans hold the Senate  This is the most likely outcome, based not just on the polls but also on conversations with strategists in both parties. But they urge caution, because the races in the many districts across the country that are up for grabs are still very close. How it would happen: Forget the polls; Democrats are favored to take back the House for more reasons than that. There have been a record number of retirements, reducing the built-in advantage incumbents tend to have; record numbers of candidates, especially Democratic women, have run for public office; Democrats won the off-year elections in Virginia and New Jersey; they won or fared better than expected in special elections across the country; there was high primary turnout for Democrats in many states; and there is very high early voting turnout. And just look at how wide the playing field is — Democrats need to pick up 23 seats to take back the House, and they are targeting some 80 Republican-held seats. Republicans are competing in just eight held by Democrats. That right there is and has been a huge flashing red light for the GOP. So many of those races are running through the suburbs, where independents and wealthy, college-educated women live, both of which have consistently in polling said they disapproved of the job the president is doing and prefer to vote for a Democrat in their district. One other overlooked number from the last NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll: Just 54 percent of Republican women who are registered voters said they were very enthusiastic about voting in this election. Compare that with 78 percent of Republican men who are registered voters. And where do a lot of those women live? The suburbs. If GOP women, an important group that Republicans need to bolster them, stay home, that's one way Democrats clean up in the House. In the Senate, on the other hand, Republicans have a very favorable landscape and are competing in conservative states held by Democrats. The fundamentals favor the GOP in these states, and if Republicans win where they should win, they will hold the Senate. What it would mean: This would be a huge win for Democrats, as they'd be able to gum up Trump's agenda and begin to investigate his administration, something the GOP has not done very much of. In the Senate, Republicans could still approve federal judges and Trump Supreme Court nominees, but if they want to get any big legislation done they're going to have to negotiate with Democrats in the House, and possibly a Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Democrats feel they need to limit the losses in the Senate. If they can hold Republicans to net even, keeping the Senate at 51-49, or maybe lose a net of one seat, then they will be very happy. They have a much more favorable Senate landscape in 2020 and believe they will be able to take back the Senate then. 2. Republicans hold the House and Senate This would be a huge win for the GOP. How it would happen: A record turnout is expected Tuesday — perhaps higher than any time in the past 50 years for a midterm — but, as in 2016, Trump voters would have to dominate. Rural voters would have to turn out at higher-than-expected rates, causing the polls to be wrong (again). Meanwhile, young voters and Latinos would have to stay home. (It is supposed to rain on the East Coast Tuesday, which could depress low-propensity-voter turnout.) All of those close House races would have to tip Republicans' way, something that's very possible given the conservative lean of those districts and the distrust of the media, purposefully stoked by the president. And who pays for polls for the most part? Big media organizations. What it would mean: President Trump and Republicans would step on the gas, validated by an election cycle dominated by negative news coverage and polling that said the GOP had its back against the wall. The Affordable Care Act (aka Obamacare) would very likely be repealed once and for

Question: It's ScuttleButton Time!

I was planning to say something witty about the thought of Donald Trump moderating a presidential candidate debate, but what could I possibly say that would rival the fact that Donald Trump will be moderating a presidential candidate debate?  I mean, you can't make this stuff up. Nor should you make up the answer to this week's ScuttleButton puzzle.  You could get 15 minutes of fame with a correct answer. But, as I always say, you won't be able to achieve that if you don't know how to play. The   rules are simple.  Every      Wednesday on this site I put up a     vertical display of buttons.    Your    job is to simply take one word     (or   concept)  per  button, add      'em up, and,     hopefully, you    will  arrive at a   famous   name  or  a familiar expression. (And        seriously,  by familiar, I mean it's something         that      more than  one       person  on Earth would recognize.) For        years, a    correct   answer chosen at   random would get his or     her    name   posted in this   column, an incredible honor in itself.      Now the    stakes are  even  higher.  Thanks  to the efforts of the    folks  at Talk of the Nation, that person also  hears their name mentioned on the Wednesday show and receives a Political Junkie t-shirt in the bargain.
