Question: Following Attack, Egypt Deploys Helicopter Gunships To Sinai

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

Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak said a Sunday attack that left 16 Egyptian soldiers dead should serve as "wake-up call for the Egyptians to take matters into their own hands." The New York Times reports this was the deadliest attack on Egyptian soldiers in recent memory and highlights both the tension between Egypt's new government and Israel and the fact that the attack means an escalation of violence in the Sinai Peninsula. Quoting Egyptian officials, the Times reports that after attacking the Egyptian checkpoint, masked gunmen stole two vehicles and packed one with explosives. They rammed the border fence and entered Israel, "with the apparent goal of kidnapping an Israeli soldier or civilians." The Times explains that Sinai has been neglected by Egypt and this may be a sign that it is "slipping from its control." The Times adds:  "Armed groups there have frequently targeted the security forces. The problems in the region deepened after the Egyptian uprising in 2011, as police and security officers fled their posts and militants, including foreign fighters, established a presence. "The killing of the soldiers represented the first security crisis for Egypt's new president, Mohamed Morsi, who appeared on television to offer condolences to the victims' families after meeting with senior generals and security officials. "'There's no room to appease this treachery, this aggression and this criminality,' Mr. Morsi said. Security forces would extend 'full control' over the area, he said, adding, 'Sinai is safe.'"  Haaretz reports that Barak said Egypt and Israel were in contact during the attack and Israeli aircraft were mobilized to stop the masked gunmen. Haaretz adds that Egypt deployed "at least two helicopter gunships" and the Jerusalem Post reports that the country decided to shut down the border. The Post adds that so far no one has taken responsibility. "The Hamas government and some Palestinian groups hinted at Israeli involvement in the attack with the aim of driving a wedge between the Palestinians and Egypt," the Post reported. The Associated Press reports that Egypt and Israel hinted that Palestinians and militants from Sinai were involved. "Egyptian officials have said six attackers were killed. A statement by the Egyptian armed forces said 35 militants took part in the attack, suggesting that close to 30 attackers may be on the run," the AP adds.

Question: Report: Forensics Rife With 'Serious Problems'

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

A prestigious research organization that advises Congress is calling for the creation of a new, independent National Institute of Forensic Science, saying that the nation's forensic science system has serious deficiencies and needs a major overhaul.  The new report from the National Academy of Sciences' National Research Council is a sweeping critique of forensic science and the way evidence is presented by analysts in the courtroom. The long-awaited report — expected to be highly influential — describes numerous problems with forensic evidence.  The National Academy of Sciences formed its committee to assess the state of forensic science back in 2006, at the request of Congress. The report acknowledges that advances in some forensic methods have helped law enforcement officials identify perpetrators in many crimes that would have previously gone unsolved. But at the same time, testimony based on faulty forensic science analyses may have contributed to wrongful convictions of innocent people. The committee looked at many different kinds of evidence — everything from hair to bloodstain patterns to fingerprints. Since the development of highly precise DNA testing in recent years, the scientific basis behind many older forensic methods has come into question.  The committee found there isn't enough research behind many forensic techniques to show how accurate and reliable they are.  It also says forensic labs are underfunded and understaffed, and there's no mandatory certification to ensure quality.  It says forensic analysts' court testimony commonly refers to evidence being a "match" or "consistent with" a suspect, even though no forensic method except for DNA analysis "has been rigorously shown to have the capacity to consistently, and with a high degree of certainty, demonstrate a connection between evidence and a specific individual or source."  It notes that forensic analysts commonly fail to acknowledge uncertainty when describing their findings.  "The simple reality is that the interpretation of forensic evidence is not always based on scientific studies to determine its validity," says the report. "This is a serious problem."  And the "case by case" approach of courtrooms is not the place to address the systemic problems with forensic standards, according to National Research Council committee co-chair Harry T. Edwards, senior circuit judge and chief judge emeritus of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. In a statement accompanying the report, Edwards wrote that the "adversarial system used in the courts to determine the admissibility of forensic science evidence is often inadequate to the task."  The research council report recommends that a new, independent National Institute of Forensic Science set a research agenda, enforce standards and push for improvements.  This new institute, according to the report, "must have a culture that is strongly rooted in science" and "must not be part of a law enforcement agency." The report did not offer specific judgments about past convictions or pending cases, nor did it offer views as to whether courts should reassess cases that have already been tried. MICHELE NORRIS, Host:  From NPR News this is ALL THINGS CONSIDERED. I'm Michele Norris. The prestigious panel is calling into question the labs and methods used to solve crimes. The report from the National Academy of Sciences says the nation's forensic science system has serious deficiencies and needs major reform. It's calling for the creation of an independent institute for forensic science. NPR's Nell Greenfieldboyce has more. NELL GREENFIELDBOYCE: One of the biggest advances in forensics in recent years has been DNA testing. It's helped police solve crimes and at the same time, it's revealed that some innocent people have been convicted in the past - in part because of testimony based on faulty forensic science. So a few years ago, Congress asked the National Academy of Sciences to look at the entire field. J: And they wrote a list of all the things we ought to look at. It was a sweeping list. GREENFIELDBOYCE: Harry Edwards is a judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia circuit. He co-chaired the committee that wrote the report. It discusses everything from the scientific basis of forensic tests like hair analysis to whether there is adequate oversight of labs, to how analysts testify in court. J: And it took us over two years to do it. We did it as carefully as we could. And tried to read and hear from everybody in the field. GREENFIELDBOYCE: The result is a nearly 300-page document. NORRIS: The focus is not to damn the past. It's just to explain that what we have now is not working as well as it ought to be working. GREENFIELDBOYCE: The report says there's no mandatory certification for forensic scientists, who are a diverse group of people who work in many parts of the criminal justice system. And as far as labs are concerned, they're underfunded and under

Question: Students Across D.C. Graduated Despite Chronic Absences, An Investigation Finds

Updated at 4:15 p.m. ET A high-level investigation into chronic absenteeism in Washington, D.C., high schools has found that students across the city graduated despite missing more than 30 days of school in a single course, in violation of district policy. The findings today follow an investigation late last year by WAMU and NPR Ed into widespread violations of this policy at Ballou High school. That reporting has led to two investigations and the placement of the school's principal, Yetunde Reeves, on administrative leave. Results from the other inquiry are expected later this month. The report focused on Ballou High School but also reviewed absenteeism and graduation policies system-wide. It found that in recent years, the number of chronically absent students has increased and that more of them are graduating, despite. This first investigation comes out of the D.C. Office of the State Superintendent (OSSE), which contracted with a private firm to look into what happened at Ballou and other high schools. That investigation was ordered by D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser on Dec. 1. "The huge investments we have made in our schools only work if students are sitting in the seats," Bowser said at a news conference today. The OSSE findings also confirmed our reporting from the last school year at Ballou High School, citing violations, specifically, with 113 of 177 graduating students' records. Those include:  A pattern of students graduating despite extreme absenteeism Inappropriate and excessive use of credit recovery (accelerated versions of a class) A pattern of communications from administrators urging teachers to find ways of passing students regardless of absences. Teachers reported concerns about the effect this had on their performance evaluations.  Antwan Wilson, the chancellor of the city's public schools, said he was "disappointed" by the findings, notably that "over 60 percent of students [were] graduating with excessive absences." Wilson said that the school district's internal review also saw excessive passing rates for absent students across the city, specifically at Anacostia, Eastern, Woodson and Roosevelt High Schools where "we are in the process of trying to understand what's behind some of the numbers there." "Failure is a part of life," Wilson added, but he said the district still needs to make sure that students adhere to policies and are set up for success. Results from a full, district-wide investigation are expected at the end of this month. Since publishing our initial report, WAMU and NPR Ed have heard from educators across the country that similar practices are taking place in their schools.

Question: Friday News Roundup - Domestic

To avoid a government shutdown, the Senate passed a stopgap spending bill which will keep the government funded until February 8. This measure does not include any of the five billion dollars for the wall that President Donald Trump requested. Trump has said he won’t sign a measure that doesn’t put more money toward the wall.
SIREN: Paul Ryan says Trump informed them he won’t sign the spending bill. — Kaitlan Collins (@kaitlancollins) December 20, 2018   A GoFundMe campaign for the border wall has raised over five million dollars for the wall after only three days. On Friday morning, the president tweeted that he’d like Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-K.Y.) to use what he called “the nuclear option” to pass funding for the border wall.
Mitch, use the Nuclear Option and get it done! Our Country is counting on you! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 21, 2018   But in early 2017, McConnell said he would not “eliminate the 60-vote threshold needed to end filibusters on most legislation under his leadership,” according to Politico.  McConnell stressed that “there’s no sentiment” among Senate Republicans for overhauling the filibuster on legislation, which typically forces the Senate to compromise and get buy-in from the minority. “Who would be the biggest beneficiary of that right now? It would be the majority, right?” McConnell told reporters. “There’s not a single senator in the majority who thinks we ought to change the legislative filibuster. Not one.”  That was not the only news that broke on Thursday afternoon. Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis will resign in February, according to the president’s Twitter feed. Read Mattis’ resignation letter here.
Mattis’ resignation letter makes it clear. “My views on treating allies with respect and also being clear eyed about both malign actors and strategic competitors are strongly held and informed by over four decades of immersion in these issues.” pic.twitter.com/8mkGFXKihI — Katy Tur (@KatyTurNBC) December 20, 2018   In a surprising turn (something we’ve had plenty of this year), former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn’s sentencing was delayed this week, and a new date has not yet been set. The judge presiding over the case laid into Flynn. Here’s an excerpt via The Washington Post:  “All along you were an unregistered agent of a foreign country, while serving as the national security adviser to the president of the United States!” he said. “Arguably, that undermines everything this flag over here stands for. Arguably, you sold your country out!””  Flynn pleaded guilty to lying to FBI agents in a 2017 interview. In the courtroom, Flynn said he accepted responsibility for his actions. Special Counsel Robert Mueller has recommended Flynn serve no prison time, due to his cooperation with Mueller’s investigation into interference in the 2016 election. And another blockbuster investigation by The New York Times raised further concerns about Facebook’s business practices. From the story:  Facebook allowed Microsoft’s Bing search engine to see the names of virtually all Facebook users’ friends without consent, the records show, and gave Netflix and Spotify the ability to read Facebook users’ private messages.  This comes on the heels of an investigation that revealed an “aggressive lobbying campaign,” led by Facebook exec Sheryl Sandberg to combat the negative publicity the company was receiving. This week, the Trump Family Foundation ceased operations. President Trump agreed to shut down his charity and give away its remaining money.  New York Attorney General Barbara Underwood said her office’s investigation into the charity uncovered “a shocking pattern of illegality involving the Trump Foundation — including unlawful coordination with the Trump presidential campaign, repeated and willful self-dealing, and much more,” according to The Washington Post.

Question: White House Narrows List Of National Security Adviser Candidates To Replace Flynn

The White House is narrowing its list of candidates to replace former national security adviser Michael Flynn and has already interviewed former CENTCOM deputy director Robert Harward about the vacancy, according to a senior administration official. The official said they spoke to Harward last week and again on Monday. "We've been getting our ducks in a row for a long time," the official said. The comments indicate that Flynn's exit had been anticipated for some time as controversy swirled around his conversation with the Russian ambassador during the White House transition and his subsequent comments that misled then-Vice President-elect Pence about those conversations. Trump asked for Flynn's resignation on Monday night, citing an "evolving and eroding level of trust," White House press secretary Sean Spicer said during Tuesday's briefing. Spicer told reporters Tuesday evening that the administration hopes to announce a replacement by the end of the week. But he cautioned that Trump has not yet made a decision. Robert Harward is a retired Navy vice-admiral who was the deputy director of the U.S. Central Command under now-Defense Secretary James Mattis during the Obama administration. He served on the National Security Council during the George W. Bush administration. As ABC News notes, Harward was the deputy commander of U.S. Joint Forces Command and led Combined Joint Interagency Task Force 435 in Afghanistan. He also led troops in Afghanistan and Iraq after the September 11 terrorist attacks. Harward is currently the Chief Executive for Lockheed Martin operations in the United Arab Emirates. He's the son of a Naval officer and grew up in Iran, graduated from the Tehran American School. He speaks Farsi. Other candidates believed to be under consideration for the job are former CIA director and retired four-star Gen. David Petraeus and Keith Kellogg, a retired lieutenant general who was named the acting national security adviser after Flynn's resignation. Petraeus would be a controversial choice given the scandal that caused him to resign in 2009 as head of the CIA. He pleaded guilty in 2015 to sharing classified information with his biographer Paula Broadwell, with whom he was having an extramarital affair. Petraeus was given two years probation (which runs through April of this year) and had to pay a $100,000 fine, but he avoided jail time due to a plea deal. Petraeus met with Trump during the transition and was in the mix to be Secretary of State. Before his fall from grace, Petraeus was a widely-respected general who helped lead military US strategies in Iraq and Afghanistan. Kellogg is a retired three star Army lieutenant general who was a foreign policy adviser to Trump's campaign. As NPR's Tom Bowman noted, he served in the Vietnam War with 101st Airborne Division and was commander of the 82nd Airborne. Kellogg also served in Iraq as a leader with the Coalition Provisional Authority, the interim government after the fall of Saddam Hussein.

Question: Sen. Inouye, A War Hero Who Broke Barriers, Dies At 88

Hawaii Democrat Daniel Inouye, the Senate's senior member, died at a Bethesda, Md., hospital Monday. He was 88 years old and was suffering from a respiratory ailment. The Japanese-American was known for his heroism in World War II and for breaking racial barriers. Born to Japanese immigrants in Hawaii in 1924, the young Inouye dreamed of becoming a surgeon, but world events intervened as he was listening to the radio on Sunday morning, Dec. 7, 1941. Inouye relayed the story last year on NPR's Tell Me More: "All of a sudden, the disc jockey stopped the music and started screaming: 'The Japanese are bombing Pearl Harbor,' " Inouye said. He wanted to enlist — but couldn't at first because Japanese-Americans were classified as "enemy aliens." "The thought that I was an enemy agent not just insulted and angered me, but, like many of my colleagues, young kids, we decided we'd do something about this," Inouye said. "We began to petition." They petitioned the president to let them fight for their country. In 1943, he joined a Japanese-American unit sent to Europe and saw heavy combat. In Italy, he personally stormed three German machine gun nests, taking them out but losing his right arm in the process. Half a century later, Inouye and 22 other Asian-American World War II vets received the Medal of Honor for bravery in the battlefield. "We had an extra burden because it was not only serving our nation in uniform but also proving and demonstrating a loyalty, which I'm glad to say my country has said we did," Inouye said. After the war he went to law school and then got into politics. When Hawaii became a state in 1959, Inouye was elected to the House and three years later to the Senate. In Congress, he kept a low profile until the Watergate hearings made him a star. When scandal caught up with another Republican president in 1987, Inouye was on TV again, this time chairing the investigation of Iran-Contra — the secret deal by members of the Reagan administration to sell arms to Iran to fund right-wing fighters in Central America. Inouye used his seniority to send billions in federal projects to Hawaii, and he became even more influential in 2009, when he took over the chairmanship of the all-important Senate Appropriations Committee. He easily won his ninth term in the Senate in 2010 and gave no indication it would be his last. His death took his Senate colleagues by surprise: "Mr. President, I rise with a real heavy heart. Our friend Dan Inouye just died," Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid announced on the floor of the Senate. Reid recalled Inouye's insistence on serving in World War II: "When asked why he fought the way he did after having been declared an enemy alien, he said he did it for the children. That's Sen. Inouye. His commitment to the nation will never be surpassed. His service in the Senate will be with the greats of this body." In a statement, Inouye's Washington office said his last word was "aloha." DAVID GREENE, HOST:  This morning we're also remembering a long time and influential senator. Hawaii Democrat Daniel Inouye died yesterday at a Washington area hospital. He was 88 years old and suffered from a respiratory ailment. As NPR's Martin Kaste reports, Inouye was known for his heroism in war and for breaking racial barriers in peace. MARTIN KASTE, BYLINE: Born to Japanese immigrants in Hawaii in 1924, the young Daniel Inouye dreamed of becoming a surgeon, but world events intervened as he was listening to the radio on a Sunday morning, December 7, 1941. SENATOR DANIEL INOUYE: All of a sudden the disc jockey stopped the music and started screaming: The Japanese are bombing Pearl Harbor.

Question: A Light Bulb Moment: How The Dimmer Switch Set Lusts Ablaze

Perhaps it's only natural that inventor Joel Spira had an eye for aesthetics. His mother was a knockout, a model in New York City; his sister eventually went into the art world. In short, Spira came from a family of lookers — in more than one sense of the word. The men around him were no slouches either: His father earned a seat on the state liquor board, while his father-in-law started an electronics company, then a giant magazine publishing business. "There has always been this right brain/left brain — the arts and the sciences — in our family," says Spira's daughter, Susan Hakkarainen. "Very Bauhaus." It was in 1959, tinkering in his Manhattan apartment, that Spira came up with a device that helped change the very way humans see each other: the dimmer switch. It was a new type of transistor that dramatically shrunk the hardware required to lower the lights. Spira grabbed a patent and formed Lutron Electronics, which is still based in Coopersburg, Penn. The company called its dimmer the Capri. And Lutron didn't market the Capri to electricians or contractors. Instead, Spira wanted to appeal to a different audience: women — wives interested in perhaps generating a little extra spice at home. Picture Mad Men's Betty Draper, bored in the suburbs. Take, for instance, one of the early promotional photos: On one side, a stay-at-home mom sips coffee under bright lights — but when they get dimmed, out comes a domestic goddess, with a half-acre of decolletage on display and a face burning with desire. Hakkarainan says every detail of the ad campaign was considered, right down to the packaging. "He was looking for a box that was attractive, and he found that a company did an overrun of perfume boxes," Hakkarainan says. "This box manufacturer had these beautiful perfume boxes. And he said, 'You know what, I'll take these off your hands, and just print my name on it.' These were beautiful boxes, when everyone else was doing industrial boxes." Along with the nice boxes, he set up displays in New York department stores like E.J. Korvettes, so women could experience the dial for themselves. "The theme in the early days was 'Dial romance,' " says Michael Pessina, the current president of Lutron. Pessina says the Don Draper-style campaign was built around the idea that kids could still do their homework after school at the dining room table. But, once they were safely tucked in, the adults could ponder making more kids at the turn of a knob. "Because there's nothing more romantic than that beautiful flicker of a candlelight," Pessina says. "And the dimming technology could allow that to happen. So any light, for any need or use of the space. And the dining room was a nice place for that." The dimmer soon expanded beyond the dining room and into the living room, and eventually the bedroom. It gave these spaces access to the secrets of Hollywood lighting designers. The low light softens hard edges, wayward hairs, the bags under our eyes; it glances off surfaces, rather than spotlighting them. Today, Lutron manufactures thousands of other products, and Joel Spira's name is on hundreds of patents. But he'll be forever remembered for the dimmer. In 2010, the original was added to the Smithsonian's collection. Michael Pessina joined Spira at the unveiling. "As they took the shroud off the case, there was one of Alexander Graham Bell's original telegraphs, there was a Thomas Edison light bulb and there was Joel Spira's light dimmer, first notebook and original prototype," Pessina says. "And I looked at him, and he couldn't say a word." Spira was still the face of the company when he passed away in April of this year at the age of 88. He's survived by his wife of six decades, Ruth, and their three daughters, including Susan. The first line of his obituary in The New York Times said he was a man who, "changed the ambiance of homes around the world and encouraged romantic seductions of all types." "He would have been tickled pink with that. Because I'll tell you, their code names for each other, which has never been told publicly, is 'Big Ben' and 'Ruby Begonia.' They were old time movie references, but they would sign birthday cards to each other, and Valentine cards, so they were always romantic, and we would always get from my father, all of us daughters, we would always get chocolates on Valentine's Day 'from your secret admirer.' " Chocolates, love notes, nicknames — this guy was smooth, and with his invention, the rest of us could feel a little smoother, too. SCOTT SIMON, HOST:  And just as music sets a mood, so can lighting. Now, if you don't have a Hollywood lighting designer coming over tonight, you might turn that little dial switch on the wall to suggest a little romance - the dimmer switch. From WHYY's The Pulse in Philadelphia, Todd Bookman has the back story to one of the great American inventions. TODD BOOKMAN, BYLINE: Joel Spira's mother was a knockout and this undoubtedly affected the course of his life. SUSAN HAKK

Question: Belarus Invaded By Teddy Bears! Two Generals Sacked

We're not making this up: three idealistic Swedes who work for an advertising agency decided to announce their support for human rights activists in Belarus by flying a small plane into the country, and pitching hundreds of teddy bears overboard. They succeeded in embarrassing senior military leaders. About a month ago, Hannah Frey and Tomas Mazetti donned little bear masks and steered their light plane over the border from Lithuania. When they got close to the capital, they dropped 800 plush toys to the ground, according to the New York Times. A third organizer tracked them from the ground. Outfitted with parachutes, the teddy bears rained down just outside Minsk, wearing slogans saying "We support the Belarus struggle for free speech" and "Belarus Freedom", says Time. The Swedish activists, who flew around in Belarussian airspace for nearly an hour and a half, were never accosted, forced down, or attacked by the Belarussian military. Repressive Belarussian leader Alexander Lukashenko was not amused. Read More: Lukashenko An "Armed Clown"  First Belarus said the stunt never happened. Then, after the Swedes posted a short video about their flight, Russia's RIA Novosti said Lukashenko changed course: "How do you account for a provocation by a single-engine airplane that didn't just cross the border, but invaded Belarus' territory scot-free?" Apparently they couldn't, so he fired some of them. The general leading the border service and the general leading the air force were dismissed. The activists seem to be the most surprised, according to the Times, because they expected to be forced down by jets. They report at one point, air traffic controllers tried to contact them, but they spoke Russian and the activists didn't, so nothing was communicated. Belarussian authorities arrested a journalism student who posted photos of the bears online. The Swedish activists wrote an open letter to Lukashenko, saying they were not assisted by any Belarussian and calling for the student's immediate release. They also called him "an armed clown".

Question: We Asked People What They Know About Obamacare. See If You Know The Answers

The Affordable Care Act brought the rate of uninsured Americans to a record low 9 percent in 2015. It's the major achievement of the controversial health care law and one the Obama administration likes to tout whenever it can. Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia Burwell did just that in an interview with NPR on Tuesday. "We have the lowest uninsured rate in the nation's history," Burwell said. "Twenty million Americans have insurance that didn't have insurance before the Affordable Care Act. For many people, they consider it just a basic part of their health care." But many of those surveyed in a new NPR/Ipsos poll got it wrong. About half believed that the number of people without insurance had increased or stayed the same, or said they didn't know what the law's effect has been on insurance coverage. That was a failure of communication on the part of the Obama administration, says Bill Pierce, a senior director at APCO Worldwide, who advises health care companies on strategic communications. "They needed to use the president more," said Pierce. "If this was his No. 1 achievement, and something he was proud of doing, it was the kind of thing that he needed to be out there and talking about all the time." Democrats were better informed than Republicans, with 54 percent of Democrats saying the law had reduced the number of people without insurance, compared to 41 percent of Republicans. One problem, Pierce said, is that the law was passed in 2010 but didn't go fully into effect for years. In that time, the website that housed the insurance exchange, the most public part of the program, failed. "By the time the insurance rate started to fall, a lot of minds were already set," he said. NPR's poll was designed to gauge the public's knowledge of some basic aspects of the U.S. health care system. The results come as Republicans on Capitol Hill are working to repeal the law. The Senate early Thursday morning passed a measure taking the first step toward dismantling the law. While many people in the poll were misinformed about the big picture when it comes to Obamacare, they had stronger knowledge about the details of the law. The majority of those surveyed know that the ACA protects people with pre-existing conditions from being refused coverage and that it requires insurance companies to pay for preventive care. However, the heated debate during the 2008 presidential race over so-called "death panels" left a mark. About a third of those surveyed believed Obamacare places limits on end-of-life medical care and another half were not sure. Only 18 percent correctly said that no such limits exist under the law. Beyond Obamacare, many people had a good grasp of the overall quality of the U.S. health care system. The majority was aware that Americans generally pay more for health care than people in other countries and that even so, health care outcomes in the U.S. do not have "the best results in the world." The poll also reiterated findings from a separate survey from the Kaiser Family Foundation last week that showed that people are about evenly split on their view of the Affordable Care Act. Still, most people don't want lawmakers to repeal the law until they have a replacement plan in place. Only 14 percent favor repeal without a replacement plan. That message seems to have gotten through to lawmakers. Earlier this month, Republican leaders in the House and Senate were advocating an immediate Obamacare repeal, with a slow phaseout while they consider ways to replace the law so people who have insurance can still get it. But many lawmakers walked those plans back this week in statements and via Twitter. Some, including President-elect Donald Trump, said they did not want to see a repeal until a replacement is ready. "We're going to be submitting, as soon as our secretary is approved, almost simultaneously — shortly thereafter — a plan. It will be repeal and replace. It will be, essentially simultaneously," Trump said in a news conference Wednesday. The poll surveyed 1,011 adults on Jan. 4 and 5, 2017.

Question: A Darwinian Against Darwin Day

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

Personally I plan on celebrating Darwin Day because when I contemplate the grand sweep of his insight into the physical world I am awed.  But it's interesting to note that not everyone who feels that awe thinks there should be a "Darwin Day." Here is a piece in the Chronicle of Higher Education by Michael Ruse, who has certainly thought a lot about Darwin (he signs his emails "Nothing makes sense except in the light of evolution.")  For Ruse it's the politics that turns him away from the idea of Darwin Day.  "Whatever the implications, and I agree that many are there, I don't want Darwin's achievement caught up in America's Culture Wars, to the extent that it is part of that and nothing else."  It's the science above all else that Ruse wants to celebrate. Read More  "I want to celebrate a theory that tells us why the worker ants are always female and never male. I want to celebrate a theory that tells us why there are so many different little finches on the Galapagos and why they look like the birds of South America and not of Africa. I want to celebrate a theory that tells us why our DNA is in major respects identical to the DNA of the fruit fly and why nevertheless we humans don't have wings and live just on bananas. I want to celebrate a theory that tells us why the Stegosaurus has those daft plates all down its back (they are for heat control). I want to celebrate a theory that tells us why sex selection in humans in places like India and China tends to favor boys over girls. I want a theory that tells you why when you have VD you might be rangier than you were before. I want a theory that does all of these things and, like the goose, promises to go on laying golden eggs day after day, year after year. It is that theory that Charles Darwin gave us in the Origin of Species, and it is for that reason that tonight I will be raising a glass of very good wine in his honor."  It is a sad commentary on the state of our nation's engagement with science that folks use Darwin everyday for their health care but then allow their politics to reject an idea that (as even the Catholic Church has shown) need not affect one religious inclination at all. But, politics or not, let us celebrate Darwin in whatever way we think best.

Question: Unseen Forces Menace 'The Houseguest'

Speculative fiction in Latin America is like Schrödinger's cat: It exists and doesn't exist at the same time. Though there are no significant speculative fiction imprints, fantastic fiction can be found under the literary label, especially using the moniker of magic realism. Magic realism has served Latin American writers in translation well, familiarizing English readers with authors like Gabriel García Márquez, Julio Cortázar or Jorge Luis Borges, to the point that works like One Hundred Years of Solitude are synonymous with Latin America. But looking at the pantheon of writers of the fantastic in translation, you'd think no Latina women ever wrote short stories in this vein. Therefore, the importance of the recent reissue of The Youngest Doll by Rosario Ferré and the publication of The Houseguest, a collection of short stories which translates the work of Amparo Dávila for the first time (Audrey Harris and Matthew Gleeson did the translation). Dávila, who was born in 1928 and began publishing in the 1950s, could be summarized as Mexico's answer to Shirley Jackson. She fell out of vogue a few decades ago, but has been recently rediscovered and there is now a fantastic short story award named after her, probably the only fantastic fiction award in Mexico. Though Dávila's stories take place in Mexico, they do not work as ethnography. Readers wanting folkloric tales or tour guides into another country won't find that in these minimalist episodes. In fact, readers might be jarringly surprised to find that the Mexico in this collection is not the world of narcos, poverty and sugar skulls which the media has led them to believe in. Dávila's protagonists are members of the Mexican bourgeoisie. They have cooks, maids, French perfumes and English cashmere suits. Another constant manifests in Dávila's fiction: the unseen menace. Over and over again characters find themselves in danger, or in thrall to a horror that is not described, only hinted at. "The Houseguest," Dávila's most famous story, which gives this collection its title, has a housewife living in fear of a mysterious houseguest who could be either an animal or a person. In "Moses and Gaspar" a man inherits what we think are two dogs from his brother, but by the end of the story it's not clear what they are. "The Cell" features a young woman afraid of a mysterious "he" who comes to her at night. A woman returns to her house in "Oscar," where a hideous someone or something lives in the cellar. Even when the shape of the evil force at work is clearer, doubts remain about the nature of the creature. In "Musique Concrète," a woman suspects her husband of infidelity with a seamstress — who is also a toad that keeps her awake at nights with its croaking. Or she may just be having a nervous breakdown. This is another attribute of The Houseguest. It's hard to tell whether the characters are in fact assailed by terrifying entities or if they are simply losing their minds. After a while, there is a sameness to the proceedings (a horror which is not described threatens to plunge the protagonist into death or madness), but at her best, Dávila radiates an interesting sense of unease and calamity. Moreover, many of her characters are women under siege, often housewives who must endure indifferent husbands and useless families. Their lives are already horrid before any monster or shadow enters their rooms. Domestic noir is in vogue right now, and many people have wondered why. I posit that for a very long time, women have sought comfort in the darkness when their own lives were full of quiet despair. It is this silent scream which permeates The Houseguest.

Question: 'Storms Come, And Sometimes Life Becomes Shredded': Bahamian Pastor Processes Dorian's Devastation

As relief efforts begin for the islands of the Bahamas in the wake of Hurricane Dorian, residents are still processing the extent of the destruction. Grand Bahama and Abaco islands were some of the most devastated areas. In the two days Dorian swept through as a Category 5 storm, it flooded neighborhoods, demolished buildings and left thousands of Bahamians homeless. Scores of people are still missing. On Great Abaco Island, residents are trying to escape, as there is no running water or electricity, and food supplies are thinning. “The human toll is horrifying, and the death toll continues to rise,” says Jason Neil Roberts, a pastor on Great Abaco Island. “When the final toll is given, this is going to go down as one of … the most horrific events probably within our country’s history and probably on this side of the hemisphere.” Dorian has since been downgraded to a Category 1 storm. It made its first landfall in the U.S. on Friday in North Carolina after largely sparing Florida and will trace the U.S. southeastern coast. Roberts, who lives in Sandy Point, says his family is safe, but they are now dealing with the storm’s aftereffects on the community. The airport on the island is still closed due to flooding, and a town that once held around 500 people is now hosting close to 2,000, many of whom lost their home. The influx, he says, has caused security concerns that the town’s small police force was not ready for. Roberts says he hosted nearly 50 people at his church Thursday night and was apologetic he could not provide them with more supplies. “We had to provide sheets and try to provide food for them, and I was just being so sympathetic and apologetic that I could not do more,” he says. “But they were so grateful and simply said, ‘We’re just so happy to have a roof above our head.’” Roberts’ family was spared the brunt of Dorian’s wrath, he says. But the terror of the storm was unavoidable, and he had to take shelter inside his home when a tornado encroached on his neighborhood. “We were in the hallway, and just like bombs were going off — like five bombs went off. And 10 seconds later, I went to the outside of my house, and it was like total savagery. Neighbors to the left, to the right and to the front of me, their roofs were shredded,” he says. Despite Dorian’s toll on the islands, though, Roberts says he is looking at the situation optimistically, with his faith still strong. “I always look at even the worst moments in life as an opportunity to have a teachable moment in it. For me, it’s very humbling,” he says. “I try to project the message through this that storms come, and sometimes life becomes shredded. But God is there with us, and if your faith is intact, you’ll make it stronger and better than you ever were.”  Ciku Theuri and Emiko Tamagawa produced this interview and edited it for broadcast with Todd Mundt. Jackson Cote adapted it for the web.

Question: Utah School Draws Ire For Taking Kids' Lunches; Debt Cited

Two state senators are paying a visit to an elementary school in Salt Lake City on Thursday, after reports emerged that the school had served meals to dozens of students — only to throw them away after a cashier confirmed their accounts had an outstanding balance. Anger and frustration followed the incident, which affected up to 40 students Tuesday at Uintah Elementary School, The Salt Lake Tribune reports. "It was pretty traumatic and humiliating," mother Erica Lukes told the Tribune. Her daughter, 11, was among the kids whose lunches were taken away. "These are young children that shouldn't be punished or humiliated for something the parents obviously need to clear up." The students were given a snack of fruit and milk — and as the newspaper reports, their lunch had to be thrown away in accordance with its rules about not serving food twice. The Salt Lake City School District has apologized for the incident, which it says it is investigating. The Tribune reports that a former school cafeteria worker has said refusing to give kids lunch if their accounts are too low is standard practice. The district said Wednesday that the decision to take away the kids' lunches came from the school district's child nutrition manager — one day after attempts to contact their parents failed. The manager had found a "large number of students who had zero or negative balances in their school lunch accounts," the district said in a statement. Here's more from that note:  "The schools [sic] says they inform students when they go through the lunch line if they have a low balance. They say they also send notes home in the student's Monday folders. However, when contacted Monday or Tuesday, many parents were surprised by the news."  The school district's apology met with nearly 2,000 comments after it was posted on Facebook, with critics citing passages from the Bible and calling the incident "disgusting." Others noted how the note about the controversial handling of the students' debt had come on the heels of a post about its campaign to fight child hunger, called Souper Bowl of Caring. "If students were humiliated and upset, that's very unfortunate and not what we wanted to happen," Salt Lake City District spokesman Jason Olsen told the Tribune earlier this week. Uintah's principal, Chelsea Malouf, says she spoke to staff after the lunches were thrown away and told them the practice should not be repeated. "No child in Utah should ever be hungry in a classroom," state Sens. Jim Dabakis and Todd Weiler said in a joint statement released Thursday. "The most basic component of learning is a full stomach." The pair held a news conference outside the school today, before visiting the students. "To me this rises to the level of bullying," Weiler said, according to the Tribune. A look at the Uintah Unicorns' page on Facebook finds an assortment of typical elementary-school fare from recent weeks: pictures and notes about music programs, requests for volunteers, and messages about an open house.

Question: We Have A ScuttleButton Winner!

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

I want you all to know that I left a good job in the city to do this blog and come up with weekly ScuttleButton puzzles, and yet people are still not getting the genius behind the contest. All you have to do is take one word or one concept per button, add 'em up, and you arrive at a saying or a name. That's it. It's not that complicated. It's not that you have to send your cousin to the Dominican Republic for the solution, or something like that. But ... don't forget ... you can't win unless you send in both your name and your city/state. Also: The answer does not necessarily have to be political. For instance, a few puzzles back the answer was "Minnesota Twins" -- not political at all, unless you're thinking Mondale and Humphrey instead of Killebrew and Oliva. Last week's buttons, in case you forgot: Roland Burris for Governor -- The Illinois Democrat has run thrice, losing the primary each time, the most recent in 2002 to some guy named Blagojevich. Honor/Ribicoff -- This button is from the 1968 re-election campaign of Sen. Abe Ribicoff (D-CT). Gloria La Riva for Governor/Peace & Freedom Party -- She ran in California in 1994. So, when you add Roland + Honor + Riva, you kind of get ... Rollin' On A River -- the refrain heard in Tina Turner's "Proud Mary" song. (Caveat: When I put together this puzzle, I believe I thought the words were "rollin on a river," not THE river. That's ok, actually, since I make up the rules as I go along.) The winner, selected at random among the correct responders, is (drum roll) ... Sean Walbeck of Bellingham, Wash. Wanna be alerted the moment a new ScuttleButton puzzle goes up on the site?

Question: Jimmy Owens Navigates Monk's 'Brilliant Corners'

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

In 1974, trumpeter Jimmy Owens helped prepare and played on a Carnegie Hall concert of Thelonious Monk's music. On the night in question, the orchestra featured a surprise soloist: Monk himself. It was one of the pianist's last public performances. Thirty-eight years later, Owens has just been honored as a Jazz Master by the National Endowment for the Arts, and he has a new album of Monk compositions arranged for seven players, called The Monk Project. In Monk's lifetime, his pieces weren't played so very often, and interpreters often smoothed away their idiosyncrasies. After Monk's death in 1982, jazz players started paying more attention to his tunes' specific quirks, to the point where musicians jamming on them might simply mimic their counterparts in Monk's band. Something like that happens here, a little — tenor saxophonist Marcus Strickland sounds like he's been studying Monk's last great tenor, Charlie Rouse. Owens' septet epitomizes one modern approach to Monk, not too straight, not too quirky. He doesn't ape Monk's sound, but instead honors his method: Keep the melody in mind at all times, leave plenty of space so the music can breathe, and make it sound old and new at once — rooted in the masters, but freshly shuffled. Owens knows Monk's tunes swing all by themselves, if you play them right. His funny timing catapults the music forward. When Monk recorded "Brilliant Corners," a tricky tune even for him, he doubled the tempo every other time through the melody — a weird move, but good show business. Owens puts "Brilliant Corners" through different rhythmic variations, leading to a slow conversation for four horns — avant-garde Dixieland. That's about as loose as it gets. Jimmy Owens mostly dresses Monk's tunes for uptown wear — Monk the Harlem jam-session swinger. The four-horn voicings, with Howard Johnson on either tuba or baritone sax, grease the tunes for cooking. The champ rhythm section is Kenny Barron on piano, bassist Kenny Davis and drummer Winard Harper. On trombone, the versatile Wycliffe Gordon is a wizard with a plunger mute, adding some Ellingtonian earthiness. A few rough spots turn up in Jimmy Owens' own trumpet and flugelhorn solos on The Monk Project, which is a good sign in a way. He's more concerned with showcasing the music and the ensemble than making himself look good. This midsize band jells so well, it might think of regrouping for some encores. The Monk Project makes me daydream about other composers whose music they could feature, like Tadd Dameron or Andrew Hill, or whomever Owens may be thinking about already.

Given ['represent this text\n\nGiven U.S. \'Show Of Force\' After Turkish-Backed Fighters Get Too Close To Base In Syria, a positive would be Updated at 4 p.m. ET Turkish-backed militias carrying out attacks in northern Syria came very close to American forces on the ground on Tuesday, putting them and their base "directly at risk," a U.S. official in Syria tells NPR. "The Turkish forces violated a standing agreement with the U.S. to not get close enough to threaten U.S. troops on the ground," the official says. "U.S. forces responded with a show of force using aircraft to demonstrate the forces were prepared to defend themselves, as well as communication with the Turkish military through formal channels to protest the risk to U.S. forces." The U.S. show of force included Apache attack helicopters and F-15 warplanes. No shots were fired, the official says. The potential risk to U.S. personnel came on the same day Russia said its military is now acting as a buffer between Turkish and Syrian troops along the border. And on Monday, U.S. NATO allies decided to halt weapons exports to Turkey over the incursion. Days after seemingly acquiescing to a Turkish invasion of northern Syria aimed at routing the U.S.\'s Kurdish allies, the White House has officially reversed course, calling for a cease-fire, imposing economic sanctions and dispatching Vice President Pence to Ankara. In an executive order issued Monday, President Trump declared that Turkey\'s offensive "undermines the campaign to defeat the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, or ISIS, endangers civilians, and further threatens to undermine the peace, security, and stability in the region. ..." The order halts a $100 billion trade deal being hammered out between Ankara and Washington, raises tariffs on Turkish steel to 50% and imposes sanctions on senior Turkish officials and the country\'s Defense and Energy ministries. "I am fully prepared to swiftly destroy Turkey\'s economy if Turkish leaders continue down this dangerous and destructive path," the president said in a statement. The U.S. would consider ramping up the sanctions unless Turkey "is willing to embrace a cease-fire, come to the negotiating table and end the violence," said Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin. Trump\'s order follows strong criticism from within the president\'s own party over Washington\'s perceived abandonment of its Kurdish allies in northern Syria and reports of executions of Kurdish militia captured by Turkish forces on the battlefield. It also occurs as lawmakers express concern over reports of civilians killed and displaced in the fighting and that Islamic State fighters captured in the years-long battle against the extremist group have managed to escape from detention amid the chaos. Sen. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., and Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., have announced joint legislation to sanction Turkey for its military operations. "The reality is that what the president has done so far is first, green-light the Turkish operation to begin with, and now the sanctions he announced yesterday are really pathetic," Van Hollen told NPR\'s Morning Edition on Tuesday. "Steel represents about four-tenths of 1% of all of Turkey\'s exports," Van Hollen said. "The president still has a standing invitation to [President Recep Tayyip] Erdogan to visit the United States. A lot more is necessary to get the Turks to stop and to protect ourselves from the resurgence of ISIS — which is what\'s going to happen. [Former Defense Secretary Jim] Mattis and others have predicted that." Hundreds of U.S. troops are preparing for a full withdrawal from northern Syria, a U.S. defense official told NPR. The hasty exit was ordered by Trump over the weekend after it became clear that U.S. forces were in danger of being caught in a crossfire between Turkey and the Kurds. Some U.S. troops were expected to stay behind at al-Tanf, near the Jordanian border. Defense Secretary Mark Esper has declined to say how long the withdrawal would take, but he said it would be done carefully so as not to leave any U.S. equipment behind. Esper said he would travel next week to Brussels to urge NATO to impose "diplomatic and economic measures" against fellow member Turkey for its "egregious" actions. Médecins Sans Frontières said that it would be evacuating its international staff from northeast Syria, explaining that the "highly unpredictable and fast-changing situation has made it impossible for us to negotiate safe access to deliver healthcare and provide humanitarian assistance to people in distress." The International Rescue Committee says three children have been killed since hostilities escalated last week. Nearly 70,000 children have been displaced in that time, UNICEF estimates, adding that 170,000 children may need humanitarian aid as a result of violence in the border region. The European Union on Monday joined France and Germany in agreeing to halt weapons exports to Turkey. The EU condemned the military action in Syria, saying it "seriously undermines the stability and the security of the whole region."

Question: Bjork As Music Teacher At The New York Hall Of Science

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

Bjork told a journalist recently that she'd always wanted to be a music teacher. And so she was, in her own dazzling style, during the first show of a six-night residency at the New York Hall of Science. A variation on her innovative performance at the Manchester Festival in England last summer, it presented the music from her 2011 LP Biophilia for the first time in the U.S. The album was issued in multiple formats, but it was best appreciated as a cluster of interactive, annotated iPad apps. The Hall of Science concert was something like those apps come to life. The venue was the museum's Great Hall, originally built for the 1964 World's Fair: a temple-like space with a 100-foot ceiling and wave-like dalle de verre walls built of concrete and blue stained glass. Bjork's ensemble performed in the center of the room, surrounded by the crowd. Programmer/musician Max Weisel, the group's main science geek, employed an array of instruments, including four iPads, a laptop, two keyboards, and something called a Reactable to trigger preset sounds and some very strange instruments — including the massive Tesla coil that spit percussive electricity during the opening song, "Thunderbolt," a scene recalling Dr. Frankenstein's laboratory. Drummer Manu Delago and harpist Zeena Parkins also contributed much to the mix. But the music's core was still that most lo-tech of instruments, the human voice. The 20-member Graduale Nobili, an Icelandic young women's choir, were striking in their golden hooded robes; they often encircled the stage, singing multipart harmonies on "Moon" and dancing barefoot like ecstatic ravers during the encore "Nattura." Bjork, meanwhile, was the sun around which all revolved, moving among her cohorts in a turquoise miniskirt swollen with nautilus-shaped appendages, beneath a huge, rust-colored wig that seemed to progressively oxidize as the show unspooled. (Nicki Minaj could still learn a thing or two about presentation from this pop foremother.) Using little besides a simple microphone, she was a physics class on two legs, sculpting vowels into fanciful shapes, and vividly animating Biophilia's song metaphors, which connect the human heart to the universe beyond. During "Mutual Core," she sang of tectonic plates under a circle of projection screens illustrating the phenomena, and licked her lips after a line about how "the Atlantic ridge drifts" like she could feel that motion tingle beneath her skin. The Hall of Science shows are part of a residency program that includes a workshop component (previously conducted in Reykjavik) for New York City schoolchildren. For the rest of us, they were a lesson in the scientific art of music, and how limitless it can be. During "Solstice," Bjork sang in duet with a gravity harp, a device that combines computer technology with wood, wires and the simple mechanics of the pendulum. It was the night's most intimate moment, a dialogue between music past, present and future.

Question: Food Photo Friday: Gaga For Food Fashion

A year before Lady Gaga's meat dress made its debut, Ted Sabarese had pioneered a project of similar food fashion. "Back in late 2008," he writes in an email,"I had been interested in the notion of people's relationship with food. ...    I decided to tackle [it] with my photography. The idea behind 'Hunger Pains,' as the series is called, "was to visually suggest an actual meal the model was craving by having them wear it." Sabarese contacted the CEO of SOTU productions to help with his project. In addition to dancing, choreographing, singing and designing, Sabarese explains, SOTU has also been responsible for some of the most outrageous costumes. The artichoke dress in this series, for example, took six hours to construct and was designed by Daniel Feld and Wesley Nault of Project Runway. In the words of Tim Gunn, they somehow managed to "make it work." Watch this behind-the-scenes video. What would your food fashion be?
