Question: The 150 Greatest Albums Made By Women

This list, of the greatest albums made by women between 1964 and the present, is an intervention, a remedy, a correction of the historical record and hopefully the start of a new conversation. Compiled by nearly 50 women from across NPR and the public radio system and produced in partnership with Lincoln Center, it rethinks popular music to put women at the center.   150. The RochesThe Roches (Warner Bros., 1979) In the late 1970s, women across America sat in circles, speaking and listening intently. These simple acts of consciousness-raising were fundamental to second-wave feminism, throwing the light of everyday experience upon the false structures of sexism. The self-titled 1979 debut album by The Roches made consciousness-raising into music. It became a cult hit, turning Maggie, Terre and Suzzy Roche -- New Jersey-raised siblings who embodied both cultural feminism and Greenwich Village boho cool — into sneaker-clad heroines of the folk scene. Self-written songs about pregnancy, work, family tensions, complex love and the feminine mystique gained clarity from the utterly clear, deliberately imperfect harmonies The Roches had mastered singing holiday carols in the street. Art-rock guitarist Robert Fripp produced The Roches, and is often credited for its uniquely intimate feel. But that's wrong. His decision to mix these songs "in audio verité," so that everything in the speaker hit the ear with equal weight, was inspired by the way the sisters made their music, sitting in that consciousness-raising formation and vocalizing into each other's faces. Some male critics found The Roches startlingly intimate, but in its wryness and honesty, many women heard exactly what they were thinking. —Ann Powers (NPR Music)  149. Alicia KeysSongs In A Minor (J Records, 2001) Alicia Keys graduated from high school at age 16 with a scholarship to Columbia University. But she decided to pursue a future with a different Columbia instead — Columbia Records, the label who signed her at age 15. Like many black women artists who came before and after her, she had to contend with people who lacked respect for her as a creator and a person. As she told The New York Times in 2002: "So I'm working with them, and them being not receptive to the fact that I play. 'Little girl, sit over there in the corner.' Them being attracted to me, whatever, 'Little girl let's go to the movies, let's go to dinner.'" Keys couldn't work under those conditions, so she found a Queens basement and made her own studio there. When she took her finished records to Columbia, they didn't like them. So she left and released Songs In A Minor with Arista Records. It reached No. 1 on the Billboard charts and secured Keys' position as one of the most visionary composers of her time. A classically trained pianist raised on hip-hop in Hell's Kitchen, Keys took varied influences — including Chopin (her favorite composer), Marvin Gaye, Billie Holiday — and, with them, crafted a distillation of her spirit. The album's most enduring songs, "Fallin'," and "A Woman's Worth," are perfect. And when we listen to them, we should take care to remember the story of the young woman who made them. She taught an entire generation of us to persevere, to know our stuff — and yes, to know our worth. —Jenny Gathright (NPR Staff)  148. Terri Lyne CarringtonThe Mosaic Project (Concord Jazz, 2011) Some will say jazz, in a word, is improvisation. An equally appropriate word might be transformation: Each player comes to the gig with her arsenal of licks and voicings, but when the tune starts it's all about reacting to and being inspired by one another, giving each other space to create and shaping the simultaneous offerings into a transmuted whole. Fittingly, "Transformation," a cover of the Nona Hendryx track sung by Hendryx herself, set the tone for drummer Terri Lyne Carrington's formidable convention of female musicians. Nestled confidently between jazz and R&B, her album The Mosaic Project was at turns brainy, sassy, soulful and revolutionary — rather like the women it celebrated. Carrington's project, which spawned a sequel album in 2015, remains a necessary intervention in a musical community whose presumed leading lights still allege that women don't care for solos. (Tell that to Ingrid Jensen, or Esperanza Spalding, or the late Geri Allen, or any of the other women who played fine solos on this record.) It sounded like a communal metamorphosis, a circle of women passing inspiration --as rapper Shea Rose declared in "Sisters On The Rise" — "from a sister to another to another funky sister." —Rachel Horn (NPR Music)  147. Meredith MonkDolmen Music (ECM, 1981) In the early 1980s, when so much in the "new music" realm sounded jarring and almost self-consciously difficult, Meredith Monk took a different tack with Dolmen Music. With her voice, in its infinite permutations — gorgeous slides, ululations, breaths, cries, howls, drones — she navigated a landscape that seemed both familiar

"['Represent the subtitle to find a news title on NPR with less details', 'Prosecutors in Pennsylvania have charged three former leaders of the Franciscan religious order with conspiracy and child endangerment for allegedly allowing a friar who was a known sexual predator to work in a high school. The prosecutors say the friar had molested more than 80 children. Giles Schinelli, 73, Robert D\'Aversa, 69, and Anthony M. Criscitelli, 61, were successively in charge of the Franciscan Friars, Third Order Regulars, Province of the Immaculate Conception in western Pennsylvania from 1986 to 2010. The three friars are accused of hiding allegations of abuse against a member of their order, Brother Stephen Baker, who eventually pleaded guilty to molesting three boys in 2007 and served part of a 10-year sentence before killing himself at a monastery in 2013. After his suicide, more than 100 abuse claims were filed by former students of Bishop McCort High School in Johnstown, Pa., where Baker worked from 1992 to 2000, the Associated Press reports. Millions of dollars in damages have been paid out. "These men knew there was a child predator in their organization. Yet they continued to put him in positions where he had countless opportunities to prey upon children," Pennsylvania Attorney General Kathleen Kane said when she addressed the media Tuesday to announce the charges. "Their silence resulted in immeasurable pain and suffering for so many victims. These men turned a blind eye to the innocent children they were trusted to protect." A Pennsylvania ground jury grand jury issued the following findings regarding the three church leaders\' roles in the abuse:  Schinelli, the minister provincial from 1986 to 1994, sent Baker for a psychological evaluation and was told Baker was not to have one-on-one contact with children, but nonetheless later assigned him to Bishop McCort, where he had regular contact with children. D\'Aversa, the minister provincial from 1994 to 2002, allegedly failed to notify school officials and law enforcement of the reason that Baker was removed from the school in 2000. That removal followed what D\'Aversa believed was a new, credible allegation of child sexual abuse, according to the grand jury. D\'Aversa later appointed Baker as vocations director of the T.O.R. Criscitelli, the minister provincial from 2002 to 2010, further allowed Baker access to children by allowing him to work at a shopping mall. He also knew Baker required "safety plans" advising no contact with minors, yet Criscitelli signed such plans while residing in Minnesota. Meanwhile, Baker lived unsupervised in Pennsylvania. He also lived at one time with another accused child predator.  The three former Franciscan officials live out of state and are expected to be arraigned in the coming days. The charges come from the same statewide grand jury that released a 147-page report two weeks ago alleging the Diocese of Altoona-Johnstown engaged in a widespread cover-up of sexual abuse by more than 50 priests and other church leaders. The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette says the report resulted in no criminal charges of sexual assault "due to what prosecutors said were the time constraints of the statute of limitations," but that there was enough evidence to charge the three priests in connection with the cover-up.']" == "['Represent the headline to find a news subtitle on NPR with more details', 'Franciscan Leaders Accused Of Protecting Friar They Knew Had Molested Children']"

Question: Cyclist Landis Gets Hearing in Doping Case

Monday in Southern California, a hearing gets under way in the doping case of Tour de France champion Floyd Landis. Three arbitrators will preside over what is expected to be 10 days of testimony and evidence at Pepperdine University in Malibu. The panel will decide whether Landis took banned performance-enhancing drugs during his victory in last year's race. If he's found guilty, Landis could be the first winner in the tour's 104-year history to be stripped of his title because of drugs. The hearing is Landis' day in court. But for the past 10 months, he has been testifying to everyone and anyone who will listen.  His proclamations of innocence began last summer, right after it was revealed that Landis had an abnormal drug-test result after a spectacular day of racing at the Tour de France. Grasping for explanations, Landis famously said the test result could have been caused by the whiskey he drank after a bad performance the day before. Landis later would blame the whiskey explanation on the fact that the test result was prematurely leaked to the media, forcing him to deal with the unfolding situation in real time.  But as the months went by, Landis became the Landis team — savvy lawayers, an articulate spokesman and scientist supporters. They turned his defense into an offensive campaign. They posted 370 pages of documents related to Landis' drug test online, to encourage experts to write in with their theories about why Landis tested positive for banned synthetic testosterone. By the time the team had a pre-hearing teleconference late last week, the message was polished and angry. Michael Henson, head of the Floyd Fairness Fund, took part. "The mishandling of Floyd's case threatens not only the integrity of this individual proceeding, but will reflect the lack of integrity of the entire anti-doping system," he said.  The Landis defense has evolved into a Landis attack on two main entities — the French lab that did the testing and the U.S. anti-doping agency, which is prosecuting the case.  The lab procedures were full of mistakes, Landis' people say. They also assert that the agency, known as USADA, has been guilty of everything from destroying evidence to denying Landis his due-process rights. The USADA has said nothing. The agency has steadfastly adhered to a rule prohibiting comment on individual athletes' cases. It has been pummeled as a result. Former Olympian Frank Shorter was the first chairman of USADA, and he's seen similar attacks on the agency before. Often, he says, they are public-relations campaigns that don't amount to much when doping cases go to trial. "I'm gonna make a checklist of all those accusations, and then on Monday I'm going to see just what emerges in the opening statements of the hearing," Shorter said. "And then when the hearing's over, I'm gonna go through that checklist again." Shorter says that if the past is any guide, the accusations will be replaced by serious talk about science and fact and proof.  Recently, it was revealed that other tests from Landis during last year's Tour — not just that first test — also showed evidence of banned testosterone. Was the testing accurate? If so, does it mean Landis doped? Those are the simple yet critical questions before the arbitrators. It will take 10 days of slogging through some pretty complex science to get the answers. STEVE INSKEEP, host:  Well, a hearing gets underway today in the doping case of Tour de France champion Floyd Landis. Three arbitrators will preside over more than a week of testimony and evidence in California's Pepperdine University. This panel will decide whether Mr. Landis took banned performance-enhancing drugs during last year's race. If he is found guilty he could become the first winner in the 104-year history of the tour to be stripped of his title because of drugs.   NPR's Tom Goldman reports.  TOM GOLDMAN: The hearing is Floyd Landis's day in court. But really for the last 10 months Landis has been testifying to everyone and anyone who will listen. His proclamations of innocence began last summer right after it was revealed that Landis had an abnormal drug test result following a spectacular day of racing at the Tour de France. Grasping for explanations, Landis famously said the test result could have been caused by the whiskey he drank after a bad performance the day before.  Mr. FLOYD LANDIS (Tour de France Winner): Somehow or another we ended up with some Jack Daniels there. So add some of that and then went to sleep. It wasn't in any way the ordinary night before the stage. But in the context of things, it was the way to get through the day.  GOLDMAN: Landis later would blame those early fumbling moments on the fact that the test result was prematurely leaked to the media, forcing him to deal with the unfolding situation in real time. But as the months went by, Landis became the Landis team - savvy lawyers and articulate spokesmen and scientist supporters who turned his defense into an offensive

Question: Trump Accepts Pelosi's Invite To Give State Of The Union As Impeachment Trial Looms

Updated at 2:19 p.m. ET House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has officially invited President Trump to deliver his annual State of the Union address on Feb. 4.  "In their great wisdom, our Founders crafted a Constitution based on a system of separation of powers: three co-equal branches acting as checks on each other. To ensure that balance of powers, the Constitution calls for the President to 'from time to time give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union,' " Pelosi writes.  Hogan Gidley, White House spokesman, said the president has accepted the speaker's invitation. The invitation comes just two days after that very system of checks and balances was in clear view, as Pelosi presided over the House vote to impeach Trump for abusing his power as president and for obstructing Congress.  The timing of the speech could be awkward if the Senate is conducting an impeachment trial to determine whether Trump should be removed from office or acquitted of the two charges from the House. Pelosi has not yet sent the House's indictments to the Senate to begin such a trial though. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., has said there is "no chance" the president will be found guilty, but he's still negotiating the parameters of a trial with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y. Pelosi made no mention, however, of the discord between her and Trump in her invitation. The date of Trump's State of the Union earlier this year was marked by controversy too, after Pelosi rescinded her initial date because it fell during a 35-day government shutdown amid a push by Trump to secure funding for his border wall. The speech was later rescheduled after a compromise to reopen the government was reached.  The Tuesday speech would come just one day after the Iowa caucuses, the first step in Democratic voters picking a nominee to challenge Trump. There is also a Democratic primary debate in New Hampshire scheduled for that Friday.

Question: Sculptor Turns Rain, Ice And Trees Into 'Ephemeral Works'

British artist Andy Goldsworthy works in the fields and forests near his home in Scotland using natural elements as his media. His pieces have a tendency to collapse, decay and melt, but, as he tells Fresh Air's Terry Gross, "It's not about art. It's just about life and the need to understand that a lot of things in life do not last." The list of elements Goldsworthy has worked with includes ice, snow, mud, wind and the rising tide. In one piece, he used twigs to fashion a giant spider web hanging from a tree. In another, he decorated a stone wall with sheets of ice. He has also lain in the rain to create "rain shadows" in the shape of his body on city streets. Goldsworthy refers to his creations as "ephemeral works." He says, "When I make an ephemeral work, when it's finished, that's the moment that it ends, in a way." Though Goldsworthy has also worked with more enduring materials, he says that using temporal materials is a reflection of the world we live in. His materials, he says, "Come raw from the ground and have all the irregularities and peculiarities because of that." But Goldsworthy's ephemeral creations aren't completely lost to audiences upon completion; a new book, Andy Goldsworthy: Ephemeral Works: 2004-2014, presents a collection of photographs of his work. There's also an exhibition of Goldsworthy's photos opening Oct. 22 at the Galerie Lelong in New York.  Interview Highlights On why he doesn't see himself as "designing" his works Design implies a sense of mapping something out, and then you follow the plan; [but] these things grow, and the process of making it parallels that of growth. So in the making of a work — layer by layer, stone by stone, branch by branch, leaf by leaf, petal by petal, one being added to the next — something grows in front of you. And the process of growth is obviously critical to my understanding of the land and myself. ... It's a lot more unpredictable, the process is far more unpredictable, and with far more compromises with the day, the weather, the material. On rebuilding a piece that keeps collapsing  This particular piece [a tree stump with a stone wall inside] — it has fallen down now three times: three days, three collapses. The actual act of collapse and the attempt is becoming interesting enough to become the work. I may have bitten off something I cannot make here. I don't know if I will be able to achieve what I want to; or I will, with a huge amount of luck and chance. But if I don't, I think the act of building and rebuilding, collapse, could become the work. ... Failure is really, really important, but failures have to hurt. ... And if I start making this work with the intention of it collapsing, then I've lost that intensity of the will for it to succeed, which makes the failure that much more poignant and significant. So there's a really odd sort of state of mind that I guess I get into when I'm making these works, that is necessary for me to extract the finished piece [and] extract the right kind of feeling for the work as I'm making it. ... To achieve what I want, to achieve the works that I make, I have to be fully committed to them succeeding. I couldn't make them otherwise. And you cannot feel that commitment without feeling or having a deep sense of loss when they do collapse or fail, and that's inevitable. On working with ice We generally don't get these severe winters [in Britain] and when it does get below freezing and it's cold enough for ice to form, then that changes the whole landscape and it makes the landscape a different landscape to the one that I've worked with previously. And I want to understand that — the relationship of cold, or what the cold is, to the land. Many of the things that I've done in ice almost reflect those things that I've done in stone, so you can learn a lot about stone by working with ice, and I can learn a lot about ice by working with stone. But the big tension of the ice works is that they're often made when it's cold enough to freeze one piece of ice to another, and the temperature very rarely stays below freezing all day long in Britain. So I typically will get up very, very early, when it's dark, and I'll start working in the dark, which can be difficult because I can't really see what I'm doing. So I can freeze ice to ice and I can work very, very quickly, and then the temperature starts to rise, and the work slows down. And then, if it stops freezing, the work collapses. But if I can get through the midday period, then I often try to find places where the sun can't reach. ... There's a huge number of things that are occurring with the ice works which fascinate me enormously, but it's driven by this kind of frantic race against time. On "rain shadows"  These are outdoor works. So when it rains, I lay down or I find a surface quickly that I think will produce a good rain shadow, and I lay there, and when it's wet enough, I get up and there is left me — my imprint, my shadow. That sounds really quite simp

Question: What You Need To Know If You'd Like To Help Post-Hurricane Haiti

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

Two weeks ago, Hurricane Matthew hit Haiti hard, devastating the southern end of the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. It's hard to look at the photos coming out of Haiti and not be moved to action. But if you're thinking now is the time to hop on a plane and get involved in disaster relief work, groups working on the ground have one piece of advice: pump the brakes. "Volunteers without the support of an organization are all gasoline, no car," says Juanita Rilling, director of USAID's Center for International Disaster Information. "That's not helping anyone." Hurting, rather than helping  If you show up in Haiti without the backing of a volunteer organization, you run the risk of making things worse for those you're trying to help. "Volunteer organizations plan to bring what they need to do their work," says Patricia McIlreavy, vice president of humanitarian policy and practice at InterAction, a nonprofit consortium with member groups working in Haiti. "If you go down there without food or water, you're going to be taking those resources away from Haitians who need that food and water much more desperately than you do." There are health and safety concerns like cholera, language barriers and — in urgent disaster relief scenarios like this — no time to train newbies or find work for stray volunteers. McIlreavy says those who show up without the proper preparation can hinder the relief efforts. There are groups that have opportunities for untrained volunteers. Like All Hands, a nonprofit organization that brings volunteers to help with natural disaster clean-up. The group has seen nearly 800 applications from all over the world since the hurricane. But even though they take volunteers with a wide array of skills and experience levels, the group still proceeds very slowly. "We want to make sure we don't stress these communities further," says Erik Dyson, executive director of All Hands Volunteers. "We have to balance the desire of people to help with the needs of the community. We want you to come help, but we want you to come in a responsible, thoughtful, organized way." That means giving priority to volunteers with language skills and experience working in Haiti or other post-disaster relief situations, at least at the beginning. Rough conditions All Hands is preparing to bring its first group of 15 to 20 volunteers to Haiti in the next week. Gary Pitts, director of international response, has been on the ground since the hurricane, assessing the situation and setting up operations for volunteers once they arrive. "We always ensure that our volunteers are safe and taken care of, but we also aim to work in areas that have the greatest need — meaning that we too have to live in and adapt to the conditions created by the hurricane," Pitts wrote in an email. Volunteers will be living under basic conditions, staying in a hotel that was damaged during the hurricane as the owner repairs it. Dyson says they should be prepared to be effectively camping, sleeping on the floor in sleeping bags. The group tries to ensure that any improvements they make on behalf of the volunteers are also brought to the community they're serving. So as All Hands repairs water infrastructure to protect volunteers from cholera, they'll also be reopening water treatment facilities that serve the region. Haitians helping Haitians In general, foreign volunteers may find themselves less in-demand than in past disasters in Haiti. After the 2010 earthquake, a lot of organizations working in the country focused on training citizens to take over the recovery. Project Medishare, a health organization based in Port-au-Prince, had a steady flow of doctors and nurses volunteering after the earthquake. But they've spent the last six years training Haitians to run the hospital. Even as they work in southern Haiti on hurricane relief, the group will only need a handful of volunteers for a few weeks before turning operations back to local staff. "We've been inundated with people saying they want to come help, but honestly, we have what we need on the ground right now," says Renee Lewis, executive director of Project Medishare. "We're always reassessing and the situation could change, but we're preparing to scale back to our local staff as soon as possible." So what can you do?  Before you get on a plane, or donate a pile of old clothes, ask the experts what Haiti really needs right now. Rilling says donations of clothes, food and toys can get in the way of emergency deliveries that organizations have coordinated and often just pile up unused. Across the board, all the groups interviewed for this story said the same thing: after a disaster, the thing Haiti needs most is cold, hard cash. "All the good that you want to do can be done with cash donations," says Rilling. "These groups are your hands and feet, working where you want to work. Even just $5 to an organization that you trust will do so much more good than you going out there and being ano

First, thanks to everybody for their API-related comments here and numerous other places. We are a bit overdue, but are working on putting up an FAQ for the API. As we have started to compile a list of questions, a common answer is emerging: We didn't want to hold the API back until everything possible was perfect. We do think the API today is very extensive and fills a void, but we also think that it will evolve as time allows, and as we respond to requests and new opportunities. As with everything else, we like to treat all our online efforts as an ongoing work-in-progress, with opportunities to get even better. But for the moment, we're very excited to see what ideas folks implement with it. I've started a list of questions below. Please chime in with comments on what other questions you'd like see included in the API FAQ. Read More >> Why is NPR doing this? Why aren't This American Life and Prairie Home Companion available via the API? Why aren't Car Talk and Fresh Air included? Those are NPR shows, right? What about content produced by my local NPR station? How does this affect my NPR station? Wait.... Are there major caveats to using this? What gives? What do I need to make use of the API?

Question: For Obama, A Week Of Multitasking

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

This week found President Obama up to his ears in budget negotiations and proposing tough new oversight of financial institutions. But he also had to deal with other pressing issues, like the war in Afghanistan and North Korea flexing its muscles. Host Scott Simon reviews the week in the news with NPR Senior News Analyst Daniel Schorr. SCOTT SIMON, host:  This is WEEKEND EDITION from NPR News. I'm Scott Simon. This week found President Obama enmeshed in budget negotiations and proposing tough new oversight of financial institutions, but he also had to deal with other pressing issues, including the war in Afghanistan and North Korea flexing its military muscles. NPR's senior news analyst Dan Schorr joins us. Hello, Dan.  DAN SCHORR: Hi, Scott.  SIMON: And let me ask you about the line-up that seems to be developing in Congress, because it's not just some Republicans, but - many Republicans - but some Democrats complaining about this massive $3.6 trillion - I haven't had to say that a lot on the air - trillion dollar budget plan. Does the president have the votes to put it through right now?  SCHORR: I don't think right now, but I think he will have by the time he finishes negotiating. He seems to have become very adept at saying this is what I want; $3.6 trillion is a blueprint for all the things we want to do. Then he'll find - yeah, but I don't like this, or I don't like that, from one side or another. And before you're finished, you will find that he has conceded this and he conceded - that's what he did with his stimulus package, was to make certain concessions, as long as the core of what he's trying to accomplish is maintained. Well, he may be able to negotiate it again.  SIMON: Speaking of the stimulus part of the package, I want you to take advantage of your repertoire of experience to ask you why some countries, particularly European countries, are openly annoyed with U.S. plans to pour billions of dollars?  SCHORR: Yeah, and Prime Minister Topolanek of the Czech Republic, who is the rotating president of the European Union this year, said that what United States was proposing in the way of all the stimulus was a path to hell. Now, why did he talk so strongly about something which we - here in this country they find a very useful thing to do. The answer is, there is burned into the memory of all of Europe, especially Germany, the years in the 1930s when they had inflation, when they had unemployment at a very high level, and what do we get: Hitler.  And that is remembered in Europe, if it's not quite so vividly remembered here. (Unintelligible) let's not make a big deal of stimulus. Let's hold on, let's make sure that we're not getting big deficits all the time. And I think that's going to carry on until April 2nd, when they all meet - the 20 all meet in London. And I think there is a real, real difference between Europe and the U.S. on this.  SIMON: Meanwhile, Secretary Geithner - Treasury Secretary Geithner - presented Congress with the administration's plan for revamping financial oversight.  SCHORR: Yeah.  SIMON: Who's going to enforce it if it passes, and could this have prevented or somehow affected a situation like AIG?  SCHORR: As to who's going to enforce it, they are making some efforts to create perhaps a whole new agency, in a way that President Franklin D. Roosevelt did, establishing new agents to do this thing. This one would pick it up from the Federal Reserve, pick it up from Treasury and do the enforcement (unintelligible) I'm not sure that's going to go through. If it doesn't go through, it will be the regular existing agencies, which will simply be saying no longer can you say that we don't oversee you because you are not a bank, which is what AIG tried to do, and say we're an insurance company, but then it went ahead and did all of this without oversight. From now on, no one dealing with money going back and forth from the American people is going to be able to say I don't want any oversight.  SIMON: And meanwhile on Friday, President Obama unveiled his long-promised new strategy for Afghanistan…  SCHORR: Yes.  SIMON: …and Pakistan.  SCHORR: Yes.  SIMON: And they were pointedly bundled together. What's…  SCHORR: Well, that's important, that's important. It is no longer a war going on in Afghanistan. The border for all practical military purposes no longer exists up there in the North. The U.S. is going fly drones in there whether or not the Pakistanis like it because the fact of the matter is that the war in Afghanistan is now completely supported and fueled from Pakistan. There are reports this week in the New York Times that as a matter of fact the Pakistani intelligence group, ISI, was working with Taliban. So what this new strategy is, we are going after al-Qaida. Wherever al-Qaida is, we go.  SIMON: Including Pakistan.  SCHORR: Including Pakistan. So the president announced in addition to the 17,000 troops already slated to go to Afghanistan, there will be 4,000 more going.

Gogol Bordello, concert FIXED. Gogol Bordello is a spectacle. The wildly exuberant, multi-ethnic group from New York City makes frenetic music that's part punk rock, part Gypsy folk, part Cabaret. Led by Eugene H?tz, a Chernobyl survivor from Ukraine, the band is famous for its costumed live shows that often stretch for more than two explosive hours. Gogol Bordello performed at Washington, D.C.'s 9:30 Club, in a full concert originally webcast live on NPR.org July 18. (The previous podcast of this concert was the incorrect length.

Question: What Are You Listening To?

Every few weeks, All Things Considered calls on you... out there in radio land... to tell us what sort of music you're listening to. Construction worker David DelValle doesn't get to listen to too many tunes while he's working away building ramps at Logan Airport or doing other construction work around Boston. So he sings to himself and waits for a car to drive by that's playing something good. DelValle sent us his list of some of his songs of summer, starting with "Go Li'l Camaro Go" by the Ramones, with Debbie Harry of Blondie singing backup. It's from the Ramones album Halfway to Sanity, released in 1987. For the ride home after work, DelValle turns to a classic: "Dancin' in the Street" from Martha Reeves and the Vandellas. "The simple, pounding rhythm is perfect for a nice early evening drive," he says. His favorite version is from the 1965 album Dance Party. To DelValle, hot-weather weekends mean mixing with the folks: "A most cherished part of my summer is frequenting cultural festivals such as the Portuguese Festas do Santo Divino, the Italian St. Anthony's Feast and Fall River's Festival of the Americas," he says. "The traditional music one can experience at these gatherings can make a fine Saturday even more dandy." In that spirit, pick number three is "Chamarrita," a traditional Portuguese folk song of the type you might hear at a Portuguese summer festival. It's by Belaurora, off the album Traditional Music from Azores.

Question: Friday News Roundup - Domestic

The news broke Thursday afternoon that Special Counsel Robert Mueller is using a grand jury in his investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election. It’s a step forward in the inquiry, and it’s not likely to sit well with the president, who has called the entire process a “witch hunt.” And speaking of the president and calls, the White House said that President Trump didn’t really have phone conversations he’d previously claimed to have had. In other presidential phone news, transcripts of the president’s earlier calls with the leaders of Mexico and Australia were released this week. “But you cannot say anymore that the United States is going to pay for the wall,” President Trump told Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto.  I am just going to say that we are working it out. Believe it or not, this is the least important thing that we are talking about, but politically this might be the most important talk about. But in terms of dollars – or pesos – it is the least important thing. I know how to build very inexpensively, so it will be much lower than these numbers I am being presented with, and it will be a better wall and it will look nice. And it will do the job.  That wasn’t the only heat in the capital. A proposal to curb legal immigration led to a testy exchange in the White House press briefing. Republican Senator Jeff Flake said his party is in denial about President Trump. And, after some doubt and a little silence, the president signed new sanctions on Russia, which inspired a backlash from the Kremlin. Amid all this, the Justice Department announced plans to look into whether affirmative action has led to discrimination against white college applicants. So … quite a week. We’ll unpack it all with a panel of top journalists.

Question: It's ScuttleButton Time!

Now that Jenny Sanford has filed for divorce and her estranged husband, South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford, is rumored to be moving to South Korea to meet his new "Seoul mate," I figured there was no better time to put up this week's ScuttleButton puzzle. But, as always, first things first. You need to know how to play the game. Every Friday on this blog, there are buttons displayed vertically. Simply take one word (or concept) per button, add 'em up, and, hopefully, you will arrive at a famous name or a familiar expression. (And seriously, by familiar, I mean it's something that more than one person on Earth would recognize.) And don't focus on a political answer. It doesn't necessarily have to be political, though it could be. A correct answer chosen at random gets his or her name in this column. Personally, I can't imagine a greater honor. You can't use the comments box at the bottom of the page for your answer. Send submission (plus your name and city/state -- you won't win without that) to politicaljunkie@npr.org. Here's the answer to last week's puzzle. And, by adding your name to the Political Junkie mailing list, you will be the first on your block to receive notice when a new puzzle goes up on the blog. Sign up at politicaljunkie@npr.org. Or you can make sure to get an automatic RSS feed whenever a new Junkie post goes up by clicking here. Good luck, and happy Friday! P.S. I usually reveal the answer -- and announce the winner -- in this space on Tuesdays. So you should get your answer in by then.

Jenkins directed 'Moonlight,' which won the 2017 Oscar for Best Picture, as well as the 2018 adaptation of James Baldwin's novel, 'If Beale Street Could Talk.' We talk about depicting the brutality of slavery onscreen, his own family history, and why he wanted to become a filmmaker.

Question: READ: Trump's Impeachment Defense Brief

Former President Donald Trump's lawyers dismiss the impeachment case against him as "political theater," rejecting the premise that he incited the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6. In a brief filed on Monday, the team said Trump did not encourage violence, as the House impeachment managers argue, and that his comments at the rally ahead of the riot were protected by the First Amendment. They also say that Trump should not be tried as a former president, a claim many constitutional scholars disagree with. The impeachment managers say Trump's months of rhetoric falsely warning of widespread voter fraud fueled the actions on Jan. 6, where extremists breached the Capitol complex to disrupt the official Electoral College vote count.  The defense brief comes a day before the start of the trial. Read the brief in full below. (Read the prosecution's argument here.)

"['represent this text to find its title about the same news but with slightly less depth', 'Updated at 4:04 p.m. ET The National Rifle Association acted as a "foreign asset" for Russia in the period leading up to the 2016 election, according to a new investigation unveiled Friday by Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore. Drawing on contemporaneous emails and private interviews, an 18-month probe by the Senate Finance Committee\'s Democratic staff found that the NRA underwrote political access for Russian nationals Maria Butina and Alexander Torshin more than previously known — even though the two had declared their ties to the Kremlin. The report, available here, also describes how closely the gun rights group was involved with organizing a 2015 visit by some of its leaders to Moscow.  Then-NRA vice president Pete Brownell, who would later become NRA president, was enticed to visit Russia with the promise of personal business opportunities — and the NRA covered a portion of the trip\'s costs. The conclusions of the Senate investigation could have legal implications for the NRA, Wyden says. Tax-exempt organizations are barred from using funds for the personal benefit of its officials or for actions significantly outside their stated missions. The revelations in the Senate report raise questions about whether the NRA could face civil penalties or lose its tax-exempt status. The National Rifle Association called the report "politically motivated," and suggested that the 2015 Moscow trip was not an official NRA trip. "An avalanche of proof confirms that the NRA, as an organization, was never involved in the activities about which the Democrats write," said William A. Brewer III, counsel to the NRA.  Continued Brewer: "This report goes to great lengths to try to involve the NRA in activities of private individuals and create the false impression that the NRA did not act appropriately. Nothing could be further from the truth." Attorneys general in the state of New York and the District of Columbia are conducting separate probes into alleged wrongdoing at the gun rights organization. These probes have a broader scope than the Senate report, which focuses on Russia. Majority response: This is overblown The Republican majority on the Senate Finance Committee, which was consulted periodically throughout the Democrats\' investigation, said Friday the report was overblown.  In the Republicans\' analysis of Wyden\'s report, the majority argued that it does not account for U.S.-Russia relations at the time and contains "much conclusory innuendo... and repeatedly attempts to paint a picture that does not exist." The Republicans also argued that if the NRA committed any infractions, they would be small and do not put the NRA\'s tax-exempt status at risk. "To the extent NRA funds were used improperly in any facts discussed in the [Democratic report led by Wyden], it appears to have been minor, hardly a rounding error for an organization with hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue each year and nothing that cannot be corrected with minor intermediate sanctions," the Republican analysis states. Kremlin links were clear Wyden\'s 77-page report centers on Butina — a convicted Russian agent now in federal prison — and Torshin, a former Russian government official who has been sanctioned by the United States. The report indicates that top NRA officials were aware of Butina\'s and Torshin\'s links with the Kremlin even as they sought to work more closely together under the banner of gun rights. In an email later circulated to two senior NRA staff members, Butina wrote that a purpose of the 2015 Moscow trip was that "many powerful figures in the Kremlin are counting on Torshin to prove his American connections" by showing he could bring prominent NRA officials to Russia. At another point, Butina suggested to participants on the 2015 NRA trip to Russia that she might be able to set up a meeting between them and President Vladimir Putin, referring to him as "Russia\'s highest leader." NRA facilitated political access  Despite these declarations about their ties to the Russian government, NRA officials paid for and facilitated Torshin and Butina\'s introduction into American political organizations. Butina and Torshin received access to Republican Party officials at NRA events.  It was a explicit interest expressed by Butina: In one 2015 email to an NRA employee, Butina wrote, "is there a list of U.S. governors or members of Congress that might be present at some time during the [NRA] annual meeting?"  The employee responded with a list. The NRA also helped them forge connections with groups such as the Council for National Policy, the National Prayer Breakfast, the National Sporting Goods Wholesalers Association and Safari Club International. "NRA resources appear to have been used to pay for membership and registration fees to third party events for [Torshin and Butina] as well as to arrange for transit to and lodging for many of those events throughout 2015 and 2016," the report states.

To give you a sense - "['represent the subtitle to find a news title on npr with less details', 'From its start nearly 25 years ago, The Simpsons was different. Not only was it animated, it had a Murderer\'s Row of voice actors and writing talent. It was absurdly funny and more than occasionally touching. Today, the show still embraces an uncommonly wide range of comedy, from slapstick to laser-guided wordplay. History\'s longest-running American prime-time scripted TV show also has its recurring obsessions, from politics to religion to sports (Marge, watching basketball: "How come they never call traveling anymore?"). Classical music has come up again and again on the show, even from its earliest days. The second episode, from January 1990, includes a trip to the opera — Bizet\'s Carmen, performed, as a sign says, "Tonite Only in RUSSIAN." Over the seasons, there have been references to composers, singers, instrumentalists and even, in one memorable case, the architect of an iconic concert hall. In September, members of the cast, series creator Matt Groening and guests including Conan O\'Brien and Jon Lovitz will join the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra and music director Thomas Wilkins for three concerts featuring scenes from the show. For a program that honors the entire tradition of animation and film scoring, it\'s fitting that they\'ll be where Bugs Bunny conducted. Thursday, a 12-day marathon of every Simpsons episode to date begins on the new Fox network FXX. All 552 shows are running in their premiere order, from 10 a.m. ET/PT Thursday to midnight Sept. 1. Here\'s a guide to a few of the episodes with classical cameos — note that Aug. 28 is an especially highbrow day. (All times Eastern and Pacific.) Thursday, Aug. 21, 10:30 a.m. "Bart the Genius" (1990) Bart switches IQ tests with a legitimate genius. Feeling guilty about not having encouraged Bart\'s brilliance, Marge buys tickets to Carmen. Bart sings along: "Toreador, oh, don\'t spit on the floor. Please use the cuspidor, that\'s what it\'s for." (Yet this may be only the silver medal sitcom Carmen — the gold still goes to Gilligan\'s Island.) Thursday Aug. 28, 3:30 a.m. "Margical History Tour" (2004) In this elaborate Amadeus spoof, the shelves of the Springfield Public Library are suddenly empty. Marge fills the void by telling stories about historical figures, including Mozart, played by Bart: "Hello, Vienna! Are there any aficionados in the house?" A concert hall has entrances marked "FOPS" and "DANDIES." Thursday Aug. 28, 4 p.m. "The Seven-Beer Snitch" (2005) Springfield is being mocked by rival Shelbyville; Marge\'s answer is to commission a concert hall from architect Frank Gehry (designer of Disney Hall in Los Angeles, and one of Groening\'s neighbors). Flanders agrees: "We could use a new HQ for the Springfield Philharmonic. They\'re playing Gustav Mahler in abject squalor!" Gehry (playing himself) reads a letter from Marge, tosses it aside and then realizes the crumpled sheet is the design for the hall, exclaiming, "Frank Gehry, you\'re a genius!" But in 2011, Gehry told CNN that the joke has had an exasperating afterlife, as clients ask him to wad paper: "People who have seen The Simpsons believe it." Thursday Aug. 28, 11:30 p.m. "The Italian Bob" (2005) One of the lesser-known aspects of The Simpsons is the show\'s strong connection to the magnificent Dr. Seuss cult film The 5,000 Fingers of Dr. T, a comic horror musical about piano lessons. Simpsons villain Sideshow Bob Terwilliger (voiced by Kelsey Grammer) is named for the movie\'s title character, and one of Mr. Burns\' songs, "See My Vest," is a blend of "Be Our Guest" from the Disney Beauty and the Beast and the unbelievable "Dressing Song: Do-Mi-Do Duds" from Dr. T. In this episode, the Simpsons are in Rome, where Krusty is appearing in Leoncavallo\'s Pagliacci at the Coliseum (Homer, exasperated: "Ohhhhh, opera? They have that here too?"). Bob is on his usual murderous rampage. Friday Aug. 29, 8:30 p.m. "The Homer of Seville" (2007) After accidentally crashing a wake, Homer falls into an open grave. The bad news: back injury. The good news: He\'s now a singer, but only when lying down. Burns recruits him for a leading role in Puccini\'s La bohème anyway. In a locker room backstage, a shirtless Placido Domingo snaps Homer with a towel and says, "Nice set, Homer. That was a hot one." "Thanks," Homer says. "You know, of The Three Tenors, you\'re my second favorite. No, wait, I forgot about that other guy. Sorry, you\'re third." Monday Sept. 1, 3:30 p.m. "The Kid Is All Right" (2013) Last season included one of the show\'s finest musical moments, a celebration of Walt Disney\'s Depression-era output, made in the form of a couch gag (all Simpsons episodes open with the family assembling on the sofa to watch TV). "Music Ville" is based on "Music Land," a cartoon from Disney\'s "Silly Symphonies" series. Simpsons music editor Chris Ledesma has a fascinating account of the episode\'s production, complete with character sketches and the original Disney cartoon.']" should be close to "['represent this text to find its subtitle about the same news but with slightly more depth.', "A Perfectly Cromulent Classical Guide To 'The Simpsons' Marathon"]"

The increased piracy off the Somali coast is threatening to reduce traffic through the Suez Canal, one of Egypt's economic mainstays. Some shipping companies are already ordering some vessels to travel around the horn of Africa to avoid the pirate-infested waters leading to the canal. Egypt is at risk of losing billions of dollars in revenue.

Question: Scattered Russians Resist Resettlement Campaign

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

In December 1991, the Soviet Union collapsed, creating 15 new countries overnight.  The historic event also left millions of ethnic Russians scattered across far-flung parts of the former Soviet Empire, especially Central Asia.  Russian President Vladimir Putin recently launched a new resettlement program aimed at bringing them home. But many ethnic Russians say they have become too Central Asian to fit in back in the Fatherland. DEBBIE ELLIOTT, host:  NPR's Ivan Watson has been observing social changes underway in former Soviet Central Asia. The collapse of the Soviet Empire left millions of ethnic Russians scattered across the countries that sprang up in that region. He found that many of the Russians are facing a difficult choice: to take their chances where they are or return to Mother Russia.  IVAN WATSON: Oksana Peters(ph) is an ethnic Russian, but when she turns to face the TV cameras to broadcast the nightly news to the people of Kazakhstan, she addresses her audience in fluent Kazak.  (Soundbite of television news broadcast)  Ms. OKSANA PETERS (Russian Newscaster, Kazakhstan): (Speaking in foreign language)  WATSON: Peters was born a child of the Soviet Union, eight years before Kazakhstan became an independent republic. She's now part of an ethnic Russian minority that makes up a little less than a third of Kazakhstan's population, but she does not see herself as a Russian, left stranded by history in Central Asia.  Ms. PETERS: (Through translator) I had offers to move back to Russia. I could've gone to Moscow or St. Petersburg, but my parents are here. My son is growing up here, and for now, I want to live here in Kazakhstan.  WATSON: In the early '90s, millions of other Russians in Central Asia did move back. In Tajikistan, the first wave of migration was accelerated by a civil war, while in Uzbekistan and especially in Turkmenistan, discriminatory government policies, which promoted indigenous ethnic groups, pressured many Russians to leave.  But Anatoly Chechnykov(ph) of the Russian and Slavic Association of Kazakhstan, says member of the Russian diaspora were not welcomed with open arms back in Mother Russia.  Mr. ANATOLY CHESNAKOV(ph) (Russian and Slavic Association of Kazakhstan): (Through translator) First, it was very difficult for ethnic Russians who moved there to get Russian citizenship. Second, they were often treated with suspicion by their neighbors, so some of them gave up and decided to move back to Central Asia.  WATSON: They joined the more than five million ethnic Russians that remained in countries like Kazakhstan and neighboring Kyrgyzstan.  Ms. NJERKA TIDICHENKA(ph) (Resident, Kazakhstan): (Speaking in foreign language).  WATSON: At the sprawling Barakhulka(ph) Market outside the Kazakhstani city of Almaty, Njerka Tidichenka starts her workday by lighting a small candle at the entrance to her clothing shop. This Russian woman points out the incredible melting pot of ethnic groups represented in this bazaar.  Ms. TIDICHENKA: (Through translator) We have Korean, German, Kazak, Russian, Ukrainian - any ethnic group you want, you can find them here.  WATSON: Tidichenka frequently travels to Russia to buy goods for her shop, but she says she does not feel at home there.  Ms. TIDICHENKA: (Through translator) Of course, there is a difference. Here, people work harder and drink less than they do in Russia. If one of us moved there and starts to prosper, the local drunks get jealous. They have been known to set fire to people's property.  WATSON: One of the holdovers from the former Soviet Union is that passports show a person's ethnicity in addition to the country of citizenship.  Mr. ALEXEI LABANOV(ph) (Resident, Kazakhstan): My identification is that I am Russian-Kazakhstani.  (Soundbite of laughter)  WATSON: Alexi Labanov runs a non-profit organization which promotes Russian-language education throughout Central Asia.  Mr. LABANOV: I was born in Kazakhstan, I grow up in Kazakhstan, and I'm living in Kazakhstan, but I'm Russian, and I want to be Russian, and I want that my children be Russians as well.  WATSON: He thinks more Russians will soon be heading home.  Mr. LABANOV: I expect the new waves of Russian immigration, but - it was Russian immigration in the beginning '90s, but I'm expecting the new one waves, particularly due to President Putin's decrees.  WATSON: Last year, Russian President Vladimir Putin issued a decree aimed at resettling depopulated parts of Russia by offering housing subsidies and jobs to members of the Russian diaspora. The resettlement plan has yet to be launched, but every day a few Russians trickle in to the Russian consulate in Almaty asking, about Putin's plan to bring them home.

Question: Weather Expected to Delay Flights This Holiday

About 65 million Americans are expected to travel during this holiday season, and AAA says that 9 million of them will leave their cars behind and take to the friendly skies.  That may not have felt like a good decision to stranded passengers who spent Friday night at Chicago's O'Hare airport, after flight cancellations due to heavy fog. Spots of bad weather promise to cause more problems in the coming days but there are a few things you can do to help make the airport experience less painful.  At the National Weather Service in Chicago, Chris Bitro says conditions there are improving. "Luckily we have a warm front looping through the area now and we're hoping that winds become a little bit stronger, which will help clear some of that fog and low visibility out of the area," Bitro says. But he says that winter storms and snow, along with freezing cold, will make traveling a bit tricky in Kansas, Iowa and parts of Missouri.  If you must travel this holiday, common sense will serve you well.  "Everything you carry into the airport should always have your name on it — some kind of a name tag," advises Sam Silberstein, who works in the lost and found at Newark's Liberty International Airport.  And Ofealia Ruiz, who works in customer support at Newark's airport, says people should consider putting their mom's number in their cell phones. "One of the things we get a lot of is cell phones," Ruiz says. "Usually what we do to match up cell phones with customers is to look for 'mom.' Everyone, of course, has 'mom' stored in there."  Back in Chicago, airport system spokeswoman Karen Pride, suggests passengers pack some patience for the next couple of days. "Call ahead and check Web sites for flight status," Pride says. "Arrive at the airport two hours ahead of flight time and don't bring wrapped packages." That's unless you want them to be unwrapped by security!  Pride also reminds travelers not to park in the drop-off lanes at the airports. All you can do there is drop off.  "So if you have a long goodbye or you want to spend time with friends and family before you go, we do have what we call a 'kiss-and-fly' lot," Pride says. ANDREA SEABROOK, host:  Some 65 million Americans are expected to travel during this holiday season and AAA says nine million of them will leave their cars behind and take the friendly skies. That may not feel like such a good decision anymore to those who spent last night stranded at Chicago's O'Hare Airport. Some 50 flights were cancelled because of heavy fog.  NPR's Allison Keyes reports now that some spots of bad weather promise to cause more problems in the coming days, but there are a few things you can do to help make the airport experience less painful.  ALLISON KEYES: Four days before Christmas and all through the nation, hoards are scurrying away on vacation.  (Soundbite of music)  KEYES: At airports such as Chicago's O'Hare, soothing music waft through the air. Yesterday, some flights were late by two hours, but people tried really hard not to be sour.  Unidentified Woman #1: We're going out in cruise in the Caribbean.  Unidentified Woman #2: Grandma is taking her granddaughter.  Unidentified Woman #3: So far it's been good. The boys are behaving so we're good.  KEYES: All right enough with the rhymes. At the National Weather Service in Chicago, Chris Bitro says conditions there are improving.  Mr. CHRIS BITRO (National Weather Service): We have a warm front looping through the area now. And on the (unintelligible) front, we're hoping that wind has become a little bit stronger, which will help clear that - some of that fog and low visibility out of the area.  KEYES: But he says winter storms and snow, along with freezing cold, will make travelling a bit tricky in Kansas, Iowa and parts of Missouri. That thanks to a lower pressure system expected to intensify as it moves northeast.  Mr. BITRO: Well, I think for this Thanksgiving holiday everybody (unintelligible) are pretty well so Mother Nature is getting us back now.  KEYES: If you must leap into the holiday travel maelstrom, basic common sense will serve you well. Sam Silberstein works in the lost and found at Newark's Liberty International Airport.  Mr. SAM SILBERSTEIN (Employee, Newark's Liberty International Airport): Everything you carry into the airport should always have your name on it - some kind of a name tag.  KEYES: Back in Chicago, airport system spokeswoman Karen Pride.  Ms. KAREN PRIDE (Spokeswoman, Chicago Department of Aviation): For the next couple of days, I mean, certainly, pack patience, call ahead or check Web sites for your airlines for you to see the status, arrive at the airport approximately two hours ahead of your flight time, and don't bring wrapped packages.  KEYES: That's unless you want them to be unwrapped by security. Pride also reminds travelers not to try parking in the drop-off lane to the airports because all you can do there is drop off.

The president took credit for helping North Carolina Republican Dan Bishop narrowly win a special election for a House seat in a district the GOP has held onto for nearly six decades.
Dan Bishop was down 17 points 3 weeks ago. He then asked me for help, we changed his strategy together, and he ran a great race. Big Rally last night.

Question: The News Roundup — Domestic

Over 500,000 people have died from COVID-19 in the United States. The milestone comes as we approach a year of the pandemic directly impacting the way many of us work and live. Drug companies Pfizer and Moderna say they are both planning to boost shipments of the vaccine to the U.S. soon. And this was another week where Washington failed to pass any economic relief related to the pandemic. Reports suggest that the current package will move through Congress with little to no Republican support. Some of the most high-profile sticking points include an increase of the federal minimum wage to $15 and $1,400 stimulus checks for qualified Americans. Meanwhile, former Capitol security officers testified before Congress about the deadly insurrection on Jan. 6. FBI officials sent the leaders of Capitol security an email about potentially violent threats on Jan. 5, but former U.S. Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund said the information didn’t reach him in time. Sund resigned from his office on Jan. 8. We cover all those stories and more on the domestic edition of the News Roundup.

The New York Times described the package as “the most significant part of President Trump’s decision last May to abandon the Iranian nuclear agreement of 2015, which he has described as a disaster.” The Iranian economy is already struggling, and many experts say these sanctions will hurt. What’s behind the Trump administration’s latest moves on Iran, and how did the Iranian government respond? President Trump also called off a proposed meeting with Russian president Vladimir Putin this week, but the Kremlin said the two leaders would have an “abbreviated discussion” with more detailed talks coming later this month. The two leaders are scheduled to head to Paris this weekend upon the 100th anniversary of the end of World War I. Hundreds of thousands of Yemeni citizens are trapped in the port city of Hodeida as fighting continues in the country’s civil war. The Washington Post reports that residents have remained confined inside their houses.  The clashes in Hodeida, pitting a U.S.-backed regional coalition led by Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates against northern Houthi rebels, has led to numerous civilian casualties over the past week, said residents, health workers and aid agencies. The violence is also nearing medical facilities, threatening the safety of patients and essential medical workers. The fighting has particularly intensified near Hodeida’s port, through which passes more than 70 percent of all food, fuel, medicine and other essential supplies destined for the northern part of the country where the large majority of Yemenis live. If the port is damaged, it could be catastrophic for millions of Yemenis, aid workers said.  And one of the children featured in searing images of the famine in Yemen published by The New York Times last week died. Amal Hussain was seven years old.  “My heart is broken,” said her mother, Mariam Ali, who wept during a phone interview. “Amal was always smiling. Now I’m worried for my other children.”  After Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis called for a cease-fire in Yemen last week, who can help these civilians?

Question: Responding to Your Letters

Farai Chideya and News & Notes editor Sasa Woodruff read and respond to listeners' e-mails concerning Rene Marie's singing of the Black National Anthem and the most recent controversial cover of The New Yorker featuring Barack and Michelle Obama.

In the aftermath of catastrophic events such as a mass shooting or natural disaster, politicians often offer up their thoughts and prayers to victims. Critics then hit back, condemning the phrase as meaningless — with no real value or impact. Now a new study from economists finds that prayers might have an actual dollar value, and they may also have real consequences for charitable giving in the wake of catastrophe, but not in the way you might think.
