Question: 'Walking The Walk' With Students ... And Screaming Fans

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

The NPR Ed team is discovering what teachers do when they're not teaching. Artist? Carpenter? Quidditch player? Explore our Secret Lives of Teachers series. It's not unusual for kids to wear a T-shirt to school with their favorite band on it. But at Oakwood Elementary in North Hollywood, Calif., that T-shirt may also have a picture of their teacher — actually, three of their teachers. The punk band No Small Children formed two years ago when Joanie Pimentel moved to California to play with two elementary teachers — her sister, Lisa Pimentel, and Lisa's co-worker Nicola Berlinsky. "We thought to ourselves, 'We're not getting any younger. And we're sure not getting any cooler,' " recalls Berlinsky, the band's drummer and a fourth-grade teacher. " 'So why not? Let's see what happens.' " The band started as a way to create a space for themselves outside their lives as teachers — hence the name No Small Children. Onstage, the trio wear matching dresses while pumping out fast, heavy, energetic punk songs: like "I'm Irritated" and "Dear Youth." They were an immediate success, playing 55 shows in their first three months. "At first, we said yes to everything," says Berlinsky. Now, after two years of steady gigs, No Small Children is an established act in Los Angeles. So the band can be more selective. One big change: It doesn't play many school nights these days. Balancing the demands of teaching and performing wasn't hard, says Lisa Pimentel. She's lead singer, guitar player and, at Oakwood Elementary, orchestra instructor. It was never a decision between this or that, she explains. Instead, the band always thought about school and music as one entity: this and that. All three agree that performing together has made them better teachers. "As performers, we're constantly putting ourselves out there. We ask our kids to do that every day," Joanie Pimentel says. She plays bass and is the school's music instructor. "When you can talk to them from the same place, you can relate better. You're kind of walking the walk." With a combined 25 years of teaching among the band members, a full-length album released last year, and regular — if not weekly — gigs, No Small Children shows no signs of slowing down. "Both music and teaching are very long careers," Berlinsky says. "You can keep going and going."  Tell us about the Secret Lives of Teachers — maybe your own or a teacher you know.

Question: GHD Is Not An AFZ. HTH You Understand What They Mean!

One thing we've learned here at Goats and Soda is that the world of global health and development is swimming in abbreviations/initialisms. We try not to use them in the blog because let's face it, dear readers, if you saw a story about NGOs (nongovernmental organizations) trying to improve BHS (basic health services), you'd probably click over to a video of RCC (really cute cats). Global health and development abbreviations do have their defenders. They are a convenient shorthand for people who work in the field. Although not everyone is a fan. "I can't stand acronyms in general," says William Savedoff, a senior fellow at the Center for Global Development (CGD). When a report comes with a one-to-two-page list of all the abbreviations a reader will encounter, he says, well maybe that's just a few abbreviations too many. Abbreviations and acronyms can also dehumanize. Health gurus worked hard to come up with a phrase to describe people who have AIDS. The phrase "people living with HIV/AIDS" was used to get away from the stigma of calling them AIDS victims, says Savedoff. Then the phrase was turned into PLWHA. "It seems so impersonal," he says. Yet behind every acronym and abbreviation there is a story. So we thought, maybe it'd be enlightening to dive into a soup of those that float about the world of GHD (oh, sorry, global health and development). Because once you understand what the abbreviations mean, you do understand a bit more about the issues of the day. Here's a sampling. Please, people of the GHD world, share with us your favorites (and unfavorites). BRT: Bus rapid transit. In developing countries (as well as the rest of the world), the goal of BRT is to build urban bus systems that get people to stop driving cars. The result is less congestion and less pollution. But BRT doesn't just mean putting a bunch of buses on the street. BRT aims to keep buses moving quickly and efficiently. To speed up the process, passengers pay their fare before boarding. Boarding platforms rise up to meet the bus so passengers don't have to climb up stairs. And the city streets will be reallocated so the BRT buses have their own lanes and maybe even their own traffic lights. BRT started in Brazil in the 1970s and has spread to some 200 cities, carrying 33 million people a day. Daily ridership and kilometers of routes are tallied by country at brtdata.org COD Aid: That's "cash on delivery" aid, in which the funds are handed over if a country can present independently verified proof of progress in achieving a goal — say, reduced infant mortality. The recipient country has the flexibility to figure out the best way to meet the goal. The concept was developed by CGD (the Center for Global Development, in case you're not remembering what the abbreviation stands for) and is often used in the health sector — paying TB patients to stick with a drug program, for example, or paying parents to take their children to the doctor for checkups. ITN: It stands for "insecticide-treated net," which can ward off malaria-bearing mosquitoes. A better version of an ITN is an LLIN (long-lasting insecticide-treated net), which some companies have developed. According to the CDC (sorry — that's the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), these nets can "maintain effective levels of insecticide for at least 2 years, even after repeated washing." LICs, LMICs, UMICs and HICs: These are the four World Bank categories for countries based on gross national income per person: $1,045 or less for low-income countries (LICs); more than $1,045 and less than $12,736 for the middle, with $4,125 the dividing point between lower-middle (LMICs) and upper-middle (UMICs); and $12,736 or more for HICs. MDR-TB: Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis is caused when patients don't adhere to the strict six-month drug regimen normally used to treat the disease. In covering MDR-TB for our blog, reporter Jason Beaubien wrote: "It's one of the most difficult diseases in the world to cure." The antibiotics prescribed for MDR-TB can bring on nausea, headaches and exhaustion and can destroy the patient's hearing. Even more difficult to fight is XDR-TB, extensively drug resistant tuberculosis. NCDs: Noncommunicable diseases, like diabetes and heart disease. These two diseases are on the rise worldwide — and in the developing world. That's partly because communicable diseases are declining there so people are living longer, partly because people are becoming more Westernized, which means they're less physically active and their diets are changing for the worse. PEPFAR: The President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief was initially a five-year, $15 billion effort by the U.S. to save the lives of HIV/AIDS patients, especially in Africa and the Caribbean. President Bush called for action in 2003; the PEPFAR name was created in 2004. PEPFAR was reauthorized in 2008. In fiscal year 2015, PEPFAR's accomplishments included antiretroviral (aka ARV) drugs for 9.5 million men, women and ch

Question: Comic Louie Anderson Modeled His 'Baskets' Role After His Own Mom

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

Comic Louie Anderson has had a hugely successful stand-up career for the past 30 years, but he admits he wasn't a very good actor early on. "I didn't know who I was or how to do it," he tells Fresh Air's Terry Gross. Now, at 62, Anderson is delivering a standout performance on the FX comedy series Baskets. In it, he plays Christine Baskets, the mother of an embittered rodeo clown (played by Zach Galifianakis). Christine is both exasperated by her son and deeply supportive of him. "I feel like this part gave me an opportunity to play the most real person — a really real person," he says. The comic drew from his memories of his late mother for the role of Christine. "I really loved playing this part for a big reason that my mom gets to come to life," he says. Anderson grew up with 10 siblings in a housing project in St. Paul, Minn., and for years family has been a big part of his act. He says that imagining his mother and family as his audience helped shape his family-friendly humor. "I've always been trying to heal families," he explains. But as Anderson grows older, he has reconsidered adding darker material to his set. "I'm at this precipice right now that I feel like I'll be changing myself onstage," he says. "I think I could go to another level, but am I going to betray my audience? Is that a betrayal?"  Interview Highlights On his ongoing struggle with his weight I'm a food addict. I go to OA [Overeaters Anonymous] and I really work hard on trying to eat better, especially lately. I've been really working hard on it. So I know what that's like. ... My dad was an alcoholic, and he was really mean and could be very vicious. And anybody who has grown up with an alcoholic knows that there's usually a fight to bring everything to a head in an alcoholic family where the lines are drawn, and that either ends with police coming, or, in our case, my mom would feed us. It was the weirdest thing. So there's a lot of stuff emotionally tied to my eating. Then I created a character onstage that had a lot to do with being fat, so I really boxed myself in a lot, and I'm really aware of it. ... I have to be locked in a cage, Terry, for 23 hours a day and fed small amounts of food. I mean, really, I can't be trusted. I've been eating really good for four weeks ... and I didn't weigh myself until just the other day, and I lost 10 pounds. And I was disappointed that I had only lost 10 pounds, and I had to deal with that. I had to really talk to myself about that. Because that's perfect — about 2.5 pounds a week. That's a really good thing, so I have to keep that in mind. On thinking about mortality The first time I really felt anything about mortality was in 1990 when my mom died. That's where I really went, "Oh, my God, I think I could die now. ... I came from my mom. She died. I can't believe she died." It was very devastating. I couldn't believe my mom died. "Oh, my mom died." When I lost my dad — my dad was a really bad drunk, but a really funny guy, and he stuck with us and he stayed. ... I'll never forget, my dad quit drinking when he was 69 and here was my mom's response: She turned to me and she said, "I told you he'd quit drinking." On his mother  My mom was never without a compliment. ... I think she meant it. She loved people and she loved conversation and she loved to engage with people. ... She was a little passive aggressive. ... She just could slide stuff in and you'd go, "Did I just get cut by a really sharp razor? Mom?" She just had that thing. She was a little competitive, but she loved to show off. She was a showoff. On why depression and comedy often go together  I think the reason that they go together is because if you look at that depression long enough, you have to tip it on its side and look at the other side and find some humor in it. I tried to kill myself, but the rope broke. That would be a joke that I could probably do and get a laugh out of. I have to be very careful about how I do any stuff on sadness, because the crowd gets really sad and concerned for me. On not wanting to have a family of his own I wanted to find my family ... but not necessarily have a family, because I'm really a selfish person. I'll be really honest with you. I'm really self-centered and selfish, and I know I am. I don't want to be that person, but I really am selfish. ... I don't mean it in any mean way or any cruel way, I just am. I'm all about me, and I know it's wrong. I try to do nice things and all that, but I am a very, very self-centered person. I would be a great parent for about 10 minutes a day, you know? I think I'm a much better friend and uncle and cousin and brother. ... I'm gone all the time; I like to travel; I love to do stand-up comedy still — it still makes me really happy. ... And it's the one thing I'm so good at. ... I've worked so hard, I've worked so many hours, to make sure that when you're there ... you are hopefully forgetting every bit of your troubles. That's my goal every night. Hopefully

Question: They're The Invisible Ones: Refugees Who Aren't Officially Refugees

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

The image of refugees crammed in a boat crossing the Mediterranean was one of the iconic pictures of 2015. Some 13 million people were tallied as refugees last year by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, fleeing violence or disaster in their home countries. But another 27.8 million people were displaced from their homes in 2015: 8.6 million because of armed conflicts and another 19.2 million due to natural disasters. But they're not counted in the refugee numbers. That's because they stayed in their in own country, so they aren't officially categorized as refugees. Alexandra Bilak, the interim director of the Norwegian Refugee Council's Internal Displacement Monitoring Center says the plight of internally displaced persons — known as IDPs — has become a global crisis. "The total number of people who are internally displaced by conflict and violence has reached the highest level we've ever recorded," she says. And in some ways, they're even worse off than the world's burgeoning refugee population. A new report from the council documents the situation country-by-country in 2015. Bilak says it's often more difficult to get international aid to IDPs than it is to help refugees. IDPs are often stuck in the country where violence is still raging, and aid groups may be unable to reach them. "In many conflicts, there's a problem of access. The displacement itself becomes a huge political issue. Accessing these populations and even knowing where they are can be difficult," she says. Many times people become IDPs because their government is unable to protect them and keep them in their homes in the first place. At other times their government may have been actively involved in attacking them. The regime in Syria has been repeatedly accused of bombing its own people. The greatest number of IDBs in a single country in 2015 was in Yemen, which is currently in the throes of conflict. "The majority are not living in camps," Bilak says. "There's very little camp infrastructure in Yemen. The majority are living in overcrowded rented accommodations. Many have moved into schools and public spaces. Some are in tents or makeshift shelters. They're exposed to harassment and gender-based violence. They're suffering from food insecurity. Their children are no longer going to school." After Yemen, Syria and Iraq were the next two countries producing the largest number of IDPs in 2015. Millions of people have fled Syria and Iraq as refugees but just over a million were displaced internally in both countries last year, according to the council's report. Fighting in Ukraine, Afghanistan and Nigeria also forced significant numbers of people from their homes. "These people are extremely vulnerable because they're not getting adequate protection from their government," Bilak says. "Also they're not getting protection by an international system as refugees would. Many IDPs actually fall through the cracks." And then there are the disasters. The Nepal earthquake pushed 2.6 million people from their homes last year. Bilak says recovery from natural disaster is usually faster than from war but still depends on government officials having the political will and the resources to help people return and rebuild their homes. "Internal displacement is very often protracted," she says. "Many people remain displaced within their country for years and years, sometimes even decades."

Question: Food Stamps For Immigrants

Congress returns to Washington this week. One of the issues they face is whether to restore food stamp benefits to some legal immigrants. A measure to give back the benefits was attached in the Senate to a bill funding crop insurance and agricultural research. But the Republican leadership blocked the House from considering the bill because of the food stamp provisions. NPR's Brian Naylor reports that advocates for immigrants say taking away those benefits caused hunger, while opponents of restoring the benefits say the immigrants' legal sponsors should take care of those in need.

The Las Vegas Sun and The Associated Press are reporting they've been told by sources with first-hand knowledge that Sen.

As the Sun reminds us:  "Ensign, whose name was once being tossed about for a presidential run, ran  aground politically in 2009 when he announced he had an affair with Cynthia  Hampton, a campaign aide whose husband, Doug Hampton, had been Ensign['s] deputy  chief of staff.

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

Kurt Vile knows the pain of parking in a city, and he's willing to use whatever shortcut he can to avoid a ticket. "Loading Zones," Vile's first solo song in three years (after last year's Lotta Sea Lice collaboration with Courtney Barnett) is a loose song that unfolds with ease, concluding with a signature Vile guitar solo. In its video, Vile crisscrosses Philadelphia in a Chrysler convertible, running errands and avoiding the parking police, played by Kevin Corrigan and Pissed Jeans' Matt Korvette, by jumping from loading zone to loading zone. Just when it seems he's been caught, Vile switches cars, gleefully evading punishment. With humor at its heart, "Loading Zones" manages to make the proclamation "I park for free" something of a rallying cry for anyone who has ever kept the hazards on to avoid a meter.  Kurt Vile goes on tour with Jessica Pratt in November.

So it’s a joke. “The president during the campaign said he was gonna spend $1 trillion on infrastructure. He’s not doing that, he’s spending 20 percent of that. The president said he was gonna do big projects. There’s practically no money in there for big projects. It’s a joke. They can spend $341 million giving a tax cut to real estate developers — which they just did — and yet only spend $200 billion on infrastructure that affects every American. It’s a cruel hoax.” On the administration saying it will be able to leverage private dollars for infrastructure projects “They may be able to leverage some private dollars, and they did some things, like moving the state ban on tolling, that will help that. But let me give you an example: We have 60,000 structurally deficient bridges in America. I would say about 100 of them generate enough traffic to be tolled. And of course, you have to have a toll or a tax to get private investment, because private investors want a return on their investment. And that makes sense. It’s common sense. So for 100 bridges, you might be able to do it with an infusion of private-sector money. But for 59,900 other bridges, it’s government — and I mean local, state and federal government — that bear that responsibility.” On the plan calling for $50 billion specifically for rural infrastructure projects, to be given as block grants “Some places in rural America have a heavy need, like Montana and the Dakotas, because that’s where the natural gas has been discovered, and so there’s a lot of trucking needs. But generally there are not big projects in rural areas. I think that money was thrown in just for political purposes.” On the administration’s proposal to shorten the permitting process for infrastructure projects “It’s a good idea, it will be helpful, but it won’t make a difference. Look, you cannot do infrastructure revitalization on the cheap. And remember, these are assets we’re building. For example, the Hoover Dam, a huge infrastructure project that was done by this country in the 1930s. Is the Hoover Dam still working to provide electricity to the area that it’s located in? Yes it is, almost 90 years later. Infrastructure produces assets that have long-term value. We should treat it differently than ordinary spending.” On what kinds of infrastructure projects are most important right now “Projects that involve public safety. We’ve got dams that are structurally unsafe. We’ve got bridges that are structurally unsafe. We’ve got pipelines that are structurally unsafe. Those are the things we’ve gotta get to first, then the next thing is things that have economic competitiveness that that can help our economy, that can create jobs. Only about a fourth of our ports on the East Coast are dredged deeply enough to receive the big Panamax liners that are coming through the expanded Panama Canal. So we’re losing a lot of longshoreman jobs and trucker jobs to Canada, where the ports are ready to receive that type of cargo. So public safety first, economic competitiveness second, would be the drivers.”']" Match: "['Represent this text to find its subtitle about the same news but with slightly more depth', "Trump's Infrastructure Plan 'A Joke,' Former Pennsylvania Gov.

The U.S.-led coalition and the Iraqi military say they have hit two ISIS convoys in Iraq, and they say hundreds of the militant group's vehicles were destroyed. As NPR's Alice Fordham tells our Newscast unit, "two large groups of ISIS fighters have been hit this week in the western province of Anbar." Anbar is home to the embattled city of Fallujah, which was under ISIS control for the last two and a half years. Iraqi security forces announced Sunday that they had wrested control of the city from the Islamic State militants after a five-week-long offensive. The first ISIS convoy hit was outside Fallujah. A spokesman for the U.S.-led coalition tells Alice that surveillance and intelligence reports indicated that a group of fighters was gathering southwest of the city. Then, as Col. Chris Garver explains, "When we could positively identify this as a convoy of Da'esh fighters, Iraqi Air Force and Coalition airstrikes attacked the convoy throughout the night and into Wednesday morning." He estimates coalition strikes destroyed 55 of their vehicles. An Iraqi military official said in a video released by the Ministry of Defense that Iraqi forces — including more than 20 helicopters — also destroyed 138 vehicles belonging to the group. The official, identified by The Associated Press as Lt. Gen. Hamid al-Maliki, said no other force took part in the operation. Garver said both coalition planes and the Iraqi military launched airstrikes. Iraq's Ministry of Defense released aerial footage overlaid with dramatic music, apparently showing the airstrikes hitting the convoy on Tuesday. The aerial footage is at the beginning of the video. Be aware that further in there are images of people apparently killed in the strikes: The military officials in the video said an unspecified number of ISIS fighters were killed in the assault. On Wednesday, Iraqi and coalition airstrikes also targeted a convoy near the city of Ramadi. Garver explained:  "When strikes from both Iraqi and Coalition [planes] hit the convoy, the Da'esh fighters abandoned their vehicles and fled on foot. We estimate Coalition strikes destroyed approximately 120 Da'esh vehicles. Again, we know the Iraqi Security Forces destroyed more."  As Alice reports, "The extremists have lost several cities in Anbar in the course of this year – but still hold the large city of Mosul, which Iraqi officials say is their next objective." Fallujah is located just 35 miles from Iraq's capital, as we have reported, and the militant group used it as a launching pad for armed attacks in Baghdad. The recent military offensive in Fallujah has exacerbated a dire humanitarian situation. Last week, the U.N.'s refugee agency estimated that 85,000 people had fled the area since the offensive began in May.

While former FBI director James Comey was testifying before the Senate Intelligence Committee Thursday, several hundred attendees from across the country listened to President Trump share the administration's religious agenda. The luncheon headlined by Trump was the kick-off event of the Faith and Freedom Coalition's 2017 Road to Majority gathering taking place in Washington, D.C., over three days. But even as the president refrained from commenting on the day's proceedings on Capitol Hill (despite suggestions earlier this week that he might take to Twitter during Comey's testimony), many attendees at the gathering of conservatives expressed concern over the drama that was unfolding less than 3 miles away. Gordon Rolle, who drove to the event from Atlanta lamented the political partisanship that is cleaving what he called "good communities." He argued the committee's interest in questioning Comey is a ploy by Democrats to distract members of Congress, and the nation at large, from their mandate — to return Christ to the Capitol. "It is part of a larger movement to discredit the president," he said outside of the Omni Hotel where the conference is being held. "It's a shame," he added. Shortly after exiting the ballroom where the luncheon was held, Teresa Riley was checking her phone for updated news on Comey's testimony. Upon hearing that Comey testified that Russia unequivocally interfered in the 2016 presidential election — consistent with the conclusion of the U.S. intelligence community generally — Riley dismissed the news with a wave of her hand. "Knowing what I know about computers and computer hacking, anyone can make a hack look like it's coming from anywhere. So I don't know if I believe that," she said, without explaining her line of work or level of interest in computers. Gloria Alday, an active member of the Republican Party in Houston County, Ga., is equally baffled by Democrats' interest in investigating the role of the Moscow in the election and potential links between Russian President Vladimir Putin's government and the Trump campaign. "How can Russia influence our election?" she asked incredulously. "We are grass-roots people. We walked door-to-door. We made telephone calls. We did the election, not Russia," she said before adding, "It's all a smokescreen." Trump's address was long and thorough and covered a wish list of conservative goals — a complete overhaul of the tax system, repeal of the Affordable Care Act and deregulation across a slew of sectors including more lax environmental rules, which he argued would bring "the cleanest water" to cities across the nation. Several lines from the president garnered a standing ovation from the crowd: A mere mention of the decision to pull out of the Paris Climate Agreement had people on their feet, a pledge to continue putting "America First" drew loud whooping across the grand ballroom and promises to fight terrorism elicited more than a few hoorahs. Trump also criticized Democrats for being "obstructionists." "If we had the best plan in the history of the world, we wouldn't get one Democrat vote," he said, to laughter. But he ended on a more unifying note. "The one thing we do share is one beautiful destiny," he told the rapt crowd. "As long as we have pride in our beliefs, courage in our convictions and faith in our God then we will not fail."

Question: A Computer Binge-Watched TV And Learned To Predict What Happens Next

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

You watch hundreds of hours of television, they call you a lazy slob. A computer does it, and it's a technological success story. That is the case for a new algorithm from MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory. Researchers fed the program 600 hours of YouTube videos and television shows like The Office, Desperate Housewives and Scrubs to see if it could learn about and predict certain human interactions — hugs, kisses, high-fives and handshakes. The algorithm uses an artificial intelligence technique called "deep learning" to create its own understanding of the patterns that make up human interaction. Given raw, unlabeled data, the machine is asked to figure out on its own what is important and what is not. It's a mechanism that humans naturally develop over the course of their lives by picking up clues in the social interactions of those around them. "Humans don't need to have someone give us thousands of examples of things saying, 'This is a kiss.' We just need a few examples," says Carl Vondrick, a doctoral candidate at MIT and one of the researchers on the project. "So what's powerful about this is that it can learn its own rules." To test the computer, they showed it a video of people who are one second away from doing one of the four interactions. The computer creates several possible future scenarios, and uses what it has learned to guess what will happen. The computer guessed correctly 43 percent of the time; humans were correct 71 percent of the time in the same test. Vondrick believes that the system will be even more successful the more content it consumes — 600 hours is only 25 days. Vondrick hopes to give the system much more video to learn from, and to ask it to predict more complex interactions. If it becomes advanced enough, the technology could be used to create intelligent security cameras that could automatically call an ambulance if someone is about to get injured, or the police as a crime is taking place. This technology could also bring us closer to robots that interact with us like The Jetsons' maid, Rosey. "If you want a robot to interact in your home, it needs some basic ability to predict the future," Vondrick says. "For example, if you were about to sit down in a chair, you don't want the robot to pull the chair out away from you as you're sitting down." Vondrick's team isn't the first to create a video prediction algorithm, but theirs is the most accurate to date. "It's not hugely different from some other things that people have done, but they've gotten substantially better results out of it than people have in this area before," says Pedro Domingos, a professor at the University of Washington and an expert in machine learning. One of the reasons the computer was so successful is that it uses what Vondrick calls "visual representations." In the past, some video prediction algorithms have attempted to create a pixel-by-pixel representation of possible future scenarios, which Vondrick says is a difficult task. "It's hard for even a professional painter to paint something realistic," he says. "So we were arguing that it wasn't necessary to actually render the full future. Instead you could try to predict an abstract version of the image." The abstract images allow the computer to picture objects and actions more generally. For example, it can tell that an image contains a face or a chair, rather than a collection of colors to interpret. Domingos says it's the same basic technology Facebook uses to guess which of your friends should be tagged in your photos. In a second experiment, the computer is shown an image and is asked to predict what object will appear five seconds later. For example, if it sees someone approaching a sink, it might guess that the person will soon be using soap. The computer performed 30 percent better than previous attempts, but it was still right only 11 percent of the time. Domingos says the MIT team's algorithm is among a handful that are moving computers closer to being able to understand images in the way that humans can, which is a harder task than it may seem. "We human beings tend to take vision for granted," Domingos says. "But evolution spent 500 million years developing vision, and a third of your brain is devoted to vision ... all sorts of stuff is happening in [each image,] it's really hard to extract the objects and the people and the action." So if a computer is going to learn about human interaction from videos, why go with the social fumbling of Michael Scott (The Office) or the machinations of Edie Britt (Desperate Housewives)? "We just wanted to use random videos from YouTube," Vondrick said. "The reason for television is that it's easy for us to get access to that data, and it's somewhat realistic in terms of describing everyday situations." Vondrick plans to expose the algorithm to years' worth of television, with the hopes that it will become even more sophisticated over time. Who knows, maybe it will become even

Question: Brad Bird, Patton Oswalt On Cooking Up 'Ratatouille'

This interview was originally broadcast on June 28, 2007. In 2007, director Brad Bird and actor Patton Oswalt joined Fresh Air's Terry Gross to talk about their film Ratatouille, Pixar's animated comedy about a foodie rat who becomes a chef in a top Paris kitchen. Oswalt — a foodie himself — is the voice behind Remy, the rat hero whose exquisite sense of smell and taste make him yearn to be in the culinary world. Bird says he decided to cast Oswalt in the role after seeing him perform a stand-up routine about the Black Angus steak restaurant. "He was so volatile about food and so passionate and funny about it, you know, it just struck me: 'That's the character,' " Bird says. "He's so volatile, but in a good way. I mean, you know, Patton has very strong opinions about anything and he'll let you know, and when he loves something, he loves it, and when he hates something, he hates it. That kind of extreme emotion is perfect for Remy." Bird wrote and directed The Incredibles and Ratatouille. He is also the director of The Iron Giant. Oswalt is a comedian and actor. He has appeared on the television show The King of Queens and in several movies, including Big Fan and Balls of Fury.

Question: Just How Unpopular Is The Health Care Bill?

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

In the later phase of the health care debate, the argument most often heard from Republicans has been this: The American people have rejected this bill; we are only their messengers. The verb "rejected" is often amplified with words such as "overwhelmingly" or "resoundingly" or "again and again." How can President Obama and his Democratic Congress possibly move a piece of social change legislation comparable to Social Security or Medicare without the support of the American people? You can almost hear the deafening roar of response, even as you ask the rhetorical question. As the GOP has featured this line over recent weeks, Democrats have been thrown back on defensive arguments. They say the bill's components are popular, even if the bill itself is not. They say the popular judgment is mostly negative because the news has been dominated by the process in recent months, not by the substance of the bill -- which remains largely mysterious to the average voter. This recalls the judgment of some historians and political scientists that the Clinton administration's push to change health care in 1993-1994 ended badly not so much on substance as on image. The "optics," as political operatives would say, were awful. So the bill failed. Lately, the optics have been pretty awful again. The moves made in December to nail down 60 votes in the Senate (and forestall a Republican filibuster) looked sleazy and cheapened the underlying bill. And when Democrats talked for a time about using a "deem and pass" procedure in the House that would enact health care "without a vote," the optics got even worse. But with all that bad publicity and all the doubt generated by a year of debate and opponents' vituperation, the latest Gallup Poll showed 48 percent against the bill and 45 percent in favor. That does not look like overwhelming rejection. In fact, it's within the margin of polling error. Moreover, the 45 percent level of approval was achieved despite the same poll's finding that the respondents believed the bill would only improve health insurance and health care for two groups: those currently uninsured and those with low incomes. Clear majorities of respondents thought everyone else, including doctors and other health professionals and the middle class, would suffer. Yet even given that impression, more than 4 out of 10 were willing to approve the idea of an overhaul along the lines President Obama has proposed. What would happen if the bill's image were to improve, even slightly, in the days and weeks ahead? What if the passage, and the proliferation of positive details about the actual bill, were to lift its approval in the Gallup above 50 percent? What would be the primary Republican argument in that case? Would they say the bill was only popular at 60 percent or 70 percent or more? One thing is clear. Without the Democrats' narrow win in the House this past weekend, the Republicans would have won the health care argument in two ways. First, they would have blocked legislation they opposed. But beyond that, the snuffing out of the bill would mean all their arguments against it would be deemed true -- or successful, and therefore unchallenged. Was the bill a governmental takeover of health care? We would never really know, but the argument would be remembered in these terms. Would the bill have been a body blow to the economy? Would it have killed jobs, destroyed small businesses and undermined Medicare? Would it have bankrupted America? Without a bill in place, all these arguments would remain unproven and impossible to disprove. We would know only that these arguments prevailed, and that the bill, in defeat, would stand guilty as charged. Perhaps the bill in implementation will grow even less popular, as problems arise and receive extensive airing. But what would happen if, as consumers learn they will benefit, in many cases, from provisions of the bill, they start to feel better about it? Is it possible the bill has been a more potent political weapon in prospect than it will turn out to be in reality?

Question: Surprise! Wisconsin Assembly Holds Flash Vote

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

The  Wisconsin state assembly abruptly voted overnight to cut off debate on  the controversial financial legislation backed by Gov. Scott Walker. Didn't know that was happening? Neither did many of the Democratic lawmakers. From the Milwaukee Sentinel Journal:  Just after 1 a.m., Republicans cut off debate on Gov. Scott Walker's  bill and in pell-mell fashion the body voted 51-17 to pass it. In the  confusion, nearly one-third of the body - 28 lawmakers including 25  Democrats, two Republicans and the body's lone independent - did not  vote on the bill at all.  This is the legislation the Wisconsin senate Democrats wanted to stop so badly they left the state, and Frank lays it out for us on It's All Politics. TalkingPointsMemo's headline shouts, PANDEMONIUM, while the AP notes Democrats 'exploded' when they realized the vote had been held open for only a few moments.  Debate had gone on for 60 hours and 15 Democrats were still waiting to speak when the vote started...Speaker Pro Tem Bill Kramer, R-Waukesha, opened the roll and closed it within seconds. Democrats looked around, bewildered. Only 13 of the 38 Democratic members managed to vote in time.  Wisconsin Democrats are already incandescent with rage over  the bill that removes many collective bargaining rights from some  public sector unions. The legislation goes next to the Wisconsin state senate  but the Democratic senators aren't there - and until they return, it  can't proceed. Meanwhile, assembly Democrats have called for the removal of the Republican Speaker Pro Tem Kramer who runs debate on the floor.

Question: Who Really Won the Mideast War?

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

Once a U.N. Security Council ceasefire resolution went into effect Monday morning, it seemed that both Israel and Hezbollah were eager to stop the fighting, suggesting both sides had suffered considerably in this war. Augustus Richard Norton, a former West Point professor of international relations, now at Boston University, says this war left all parties wounded and hurt. "Frankly speaking, I think this is a war without any winners. I think the ground is littered with losers in this war, actually." But that hasn't stopped leaders all around from making claims of victory. Israel's Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, speaking to the Israeli parliament Monday, said that "Israel has hit [Hezbollah's] long-range missiles, its huge weapons stores, and the self-confidence of its leaders and members." President Bush also proclaimed the outcome in favor of Israel, in a speech on Monday. "Hezbollah attacked Israel. Hezbollah started the crisis. And Hezbollah suffered a defeat in this crisis." But Israel achieved none of its war goals. Initially, Olmert said Israel would wipe out Hezbollah and destroy its ability to hit Israel with rockets. Midway through the war, Israeli leaders adjusted, claiming they intended to lessen Hezbollah's rocket threat. On Sunday, the last day of the war, Hezbollah struck Israel with more rockets than on any previous day. Israel set its goals too high, says Sam Lewis, U.S. ambassador to Israel during its earlier invasion of Lebanon in 1982. "To say you were going to eradicate them or drive them back to the far reaches of north Lebanon was an unattainable goal I think from the beginning," he said. "Unless you are prepared to occupy the whole country, which certainly the Israelis were not." It was a failure of military tactics and intelligence on Israel's part, say many experts. Israel relied on air strikes initially, which didn't work. Then Israel initiated ground operations, relying on tank brigades. Hezbollah was ready for them, with wire- and laser-guided anti-tank missiles. Israeli tanks could not maneuver easily in the rugged hills and forests of southern Lebanon.  Most of Israel's losses occurred inside tanks and in buildings that Israeli troops seized. Israel's intelligence has also been faulted. Its strengths lie in technical means such as overhead photos and communications intercepts. But it seems to have a weakness in "human intelligence." That's especially evident in its analysis of Hezbollah's relationship to Lebanese society, says professor Norton. "They have been god-awful at really understanding Hezbollah, and this has been a consistent problem…. They have continually thought that if they inflict punishment and pain on the Lebanese, the Lebanese would turn against the Syrians and Hezbollah. But instead, what happens is that people end up getting mad and angry at Israel." Israeli leaders also declared that their offensive in Lebanon would restore the notion of Israeli deterrence, which they feared had eroded in recent years throughout the Middle East. Former ambassador Sam Lewis says the outcome is quite the opposite. "These events now will demonstrate that it has eroded. I don't know that it had eroded so much before these events. But certainly the failure to achieve more than very limited goals in Lebanon, and the way that Hezbollah fought, the kind of resistance they put up, it seems to me is stirring a lot of unfortunate hopes and desires in other parts of the region." Hezbollah's leader, Hassan Nasrallah, was also quick to claim victory, in a television appearance earlier this week. We are facing a strategic and historic victory, Nasrallah declared. This is no exaggeration, a victory for all of Lebanon, for the resistance, and for the entire Islamic nation, he said. The leaders of Syria and Iran said much the same thing. There is no doubt that the stature of Hezbollah has been raised throughout the Middle East -- but it did sustain significant losses. And there are many in Lebanon who will criticize Hezbollah for bringing so much destruction on the country, says Aaron Miller, a Middle East scholar at the Woodrow Wilson Center in Washington. "There will be a debate in Lebanon in the wake of this as to why we are in this crisis. And there may be fingers pointed at Hezbollah for provoking this, there's no question. But in the end, the thousand or so Lebanese who have died, the devastated and demolished infrastructure will not be laid at Hezbollah's doorstep. It will be laid at the doorstep of the Israelis and the United States." Miller and other experts believe that this war may have left the wider Middle East more unstable, with Israel's potential enemies perhaps now more eager to devise ways to hurt it than at any time since Israel's victory in the 1967 Six Day War. "I don't believe the Israelis emerge either in the eyes of the Americans or in the eyes of the region -- Israel's friends or Israel's adversaries -- as a coherent and an effective response to this crisis," Miller said

Despite the grim financial outlook, Exxon Mobil posted record earnings last year. Marketplace's Bob Moon talks to Alex Chadwick about why crude prices are soaring in a stalling economy. ALEX CHADWICK, host:  From NPR News, it's DAY TO DAY. We're going to MARKETPLACE now, and we need to because the economic news, well, it's confusing. It's puzzling, especially on employment. The number of jobs actually went down. The number of people working suffered a net loss of 17,000 jobs this last month, and yet the unemployment rate also dropped slightly. Bob Moon is here from MARKETPLACE to explain. Bob, you know, these figures, sometimes they are in apparent contradiction like this. Now, remind me how this occurs.  BOB MOON: Well, this was a slight drop in the unemployment rate, and it could just mean that people left the job market for various reasons, including that they just gave up looking work. So it's cut in the payrolls that many economists are worried about right now, because the number was a lot worse than they had expected. In fact, the general consensus was that 80,000 jobs would be created during the month. But what we really saw was a net reduction in payrolls, and that hasn't happened in four and a half years. If that reading was showing up on a cockpit gauge right now, we might be hearing a stall-out warning. Manufacturing jobs were among the hardest hit. Manufacturers cut around 28,000 workers during the past month. That marks the 19th straight month of contraction for that sector. Construction jobs suffered almost as much. That sector shed around 27,000 jobs.  And if you look at the numbers since employment peeked back in September of 2006, the number of construction-related jobs has swelled to 284,000 that have been lost.  CHADWICK: So I know that economists are looking at these numbers and trying to figure out what is the state of the economy. What will they derive from this?  MOON: Well, a lot of them are saying today that this could well be the last nail in the coffin when it comes to a recession. The reason for that gloom is that the job market is seen as a lagging indicator. It tends to show up as a result of business troubles that are already happening.  CHADWICK: Uh-huh. How's Wall Street reacting?  MOON: Well, the financial markets have really been whipsawed by all this news, because they're asking is the economy strong, or is it strained here? The Institute for Supply Management just announced that factory activity rose in January from December, and that would be a sign of expansion. So things are still confusing, even for Wall Street right now.  CHADWICK: Yeah. President Bush talking about the economy today, he says - well, he says things are okay, but they're uncertain and perhaps weakening. Is anything doing well out there?  MOON: Well, we can tell you that ExxonMobil reported a record $40 billion in profit for 2007. That figures out to roughly $75,000 every minute. Record oil prices have boosted its fourth quarter earnings to $11.6 billion, and that's the highest ever operating profit by a U.S. company.  CHADWICK: Well, there's some good news. Bob, thank you.

Question: Singer Joe Cocker Dies At Age 70

Updated at 3:55 p.m. ET Joe Cocker, the raspy-voiced British singer famous for hit songs such as "Feelin' Alright" and "Up Where We Belong," has died at age 70, his management agency tells NPR. Cocker died Monday of lung cancer. "Joe Cocker is a legendary artist of rock and blues history and yet he was one of the most humble men I've ever met," Sony Music Entertainment International CEO Edgar Berger said in a press release. Berger, who signed Cocker, added: "His iconic voice will forever be etched in our memories and our thoughts go out to Joe's wife Pam and his family at this difficult time. Joe will live on in the hearts of millions of fans around the world." Cocker was famous for both his unique voice and for a soulful style of singing that made it sound like he was pouring his heart out when he put his unique touch on hits such as "You Are So Beautiful." Born in Sheffield, England, in 1944, Cocker "lived in Sheffield until his early 20s," ITV News says. "His international success as a blues/rock singer began in 1964. Joe created 40 albums and toured extensively around the globe." The Grammy-winning singer's most recent album, Fire It Up, was released two years ago. The musician went through personal struggles with drugs and alcohol. In 2012, he discussed those struggles with NPR's Rachel Martin: "I was about 26 years old, and I kind of felt indestructible," Cocker says, recalling the 1970 tour that spawned his famous live album Mad Dogs & Englishmen. "By the early '70s, the drugs and the booze took their toll. ... It was a long road back. A lot of times when you're young and carefree, you don't realize, when you tip over the edge, how difficult it is to climb back in." The story of the Mad Dogs & Englishmen tour was recounted for NPR back in 2005 by music critic Christian Bordal. The tour, Bordal said, "was a raucous, glorious mayhem of almost two dozen of the greatest players and singers of the time, presided over by the top-hatted and bell-bottomed band leader and arranger Leon Russell — and fronted by the volcanic, raw, soul-torn voice of Joe Cocker." Cocker and the band performed a wide range of music, from recent hits to jazz standards. But the songs were transformed both by the band and by Cocker's powerful voice, which could slide from wistfulness to joy in just a few bars. Cocker described the tour to Bordal as "a pretty spacey kind of dream. It would probably fit in very good today, with reality TV."

Question: Lessons From Australia On Curbing Mass Shootings

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

In 1996, a mass shooting in Australia became a catalyst for the enactment of sweeping gun laws in the country, including a mandatory national buyback of guns as well as restrictions on semi-automatic weapons. The Australian deputy prime minister at the time, Tim Fischer, helped pass the gun control laws. Fischer, a gun owner himself, tells Here & Now‘s Jeremy Hobson the Australian laws show a country “can have a sensible policy on guns and reduce the number of people being killed by guns and the gun massacres.”

Question: Recommended Reading & A Thoughts About The Effort To 'Infiltrate' The 'Post'

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

If you haven't already, please read this story: "Woman's effort to infiltrate The Washington Post dated back months" Here's the top:  "The failed effort by conservative activists to plant a false story about Senate candidate Roy Moore in The Washington Post was part of a months-long campaign to infiltrate The Post and other media outlets in Washington and New York, according to interviews, text messages and social media posts that have since been deleted."  One thought that came to mind is how that effort to infiltrate so clearly violates one of the core principles that we and other credible news organizations live by. As our Ethics Handbook says:  "Journalism should be done in plain sight, and our standards are clear. When we are working, we identify ourselves as NPR journalists to those we interview and interact with. We do not conceal our identities, pose as someone or something we are not, use hidden microphones or cameras to collect information, or record phone calls without the permission of all parties on the line, except in the very rarest of circumstances"  What might qualify as a rare circumstance? Basically, if someone's life is at stake. We explore the issue here. The story also reminds us that we're constantly being judged and, perhaps, tested. Fortunately, we know how to conduct ourselves. One of the first statements in the handbook is that "we hold those who serve and influence the public to a high standard when we report about their actions. We must ask no less of ourselves." We go on to write about always remembering that "you represent NPR." We remind everyone at several points to keep opinions about the issues of the day to ourselves, whether it's when we're out in public or when we're posting on social media. Someone may try to spin this note as a warning that "they're coming after us." That's not what I'm saying. This is about being glad to work at a real news organization where journalists do their best to uphold important principles, and about pointing to the difference between us and "them."

Question: Mark Wahlberg, After One Last Haul In 'Contraband'

There are good movies, there are bad movies, and then there are movies that your parents rent two or three times before realizing 20 minutes in that they've seen them before. Contraband, the mediocre new Mark Wahlberg thriller, falls squarely in the latter category — not because it's risible by any means, but because nothing about it lingers, not even the sulfuric stench of a bum scene or a particularly hammy performance. Its video box (or Netflix JPEG) will no doubt have its appeals — Wahlberg's soft-on-the-inside glare, scruffy men with guns, the title font of an '80s Sylvester Stallone vehicle — but don't be fooled. You've seen this movie before, even if you haven't seen this movie specifically. In another example of Hollywood's desperation to snap up any successful properties, no matter how marginal, Contraband is an Americanized version of Reykjavik-Rotterdam, a 2008 Icelandic hit starring Baltasar Kormakur. Those who frequent international film festivals might recognize Kormakur as the director of such eccentric little slot-fillers as 101 Reykjavik, The Sea and Jar City, and he steps behind the camera again here on a much larger production. Perhaps having Kormakur aboard promised some continuity — because surely what works for Icelandic audiences will work for American ones, too — but his quirky sensibility gets lost in the rigors of a large-scale thriller. Still, forgettable movies are rarely bad movies, and Contraband has a diverting kick once its plot finally ambles into motion. Missing the belligerent edge that marks his great performances in films like The Departed, Three Kings and I Heart Huckabees, Wahlberg settles too easily into the role of Chris Farraday, a reformed New Orleans ex-con who gets dragged back into the smuggling business. After Farraday's screw-up brother-in-law (Caleb Landry Jones) gets pinched running cocaine on a freighter, local baddie Tim Briggs (Giovanni Ribisi) threatens to kill him if he can't come up with the money fast. Leaving his legitimate home-security business behind, Farraday takes responsibility for the debt and gathers his old criminal buddies for one last job smuggling "funny money" from Panama City back to New Orleans aboard a shipping boat. Meanwhile, Briggs tightens the screws back home by terrorizing Farraday's wife (Kate Beckinsale) and two children, who in Farraday's absence have only his recovering-alcoholic best friend (Ben Foster) to look after their safety. Once the action shifts to Panama City, Contraband finds a nice groove, eking out plenty of suspense as Farraday and the gang scramble to retrieve the payload before the ship weighs anchor. Kormakur and screenwriter Aaron Guzikowski keep throwing one obstacle after another in their way — including an entirely separate heist — while simultaneously turning up the heat on Farraday's family back home. The raised stakes offer a welcome jolt of energy and introduce a tone of lighthearted derring-do that's absent from most of the movie. But aside from Ribisi's typically bizarre turn — his mush-mouthed Cajun accent turns every line into jambalaya — nothing in Contraband pops like it should. There's a modicum of local color to its New Orleans and Panama City locales, but not quite enough. There's a funny, ingratiating Ocean's Eleven camaraderie between Farraday and his associates, but not quite enough. There are twists and turns and death-defying scrapes, but not quite enough. Contraband is a film to be remembered, vaguely.
