smartphone.107 | The secret behind poor smartphone battery life Summary:That shiny new smartphone has a battery that easily lasts all day. Then it all goes downhill from there Rapidly deteriorating battery life has long been tolerated by smartphone owners, mainly because they have no choice. Phones usually meet the holy grail of battery life, the ability to last all day, at first. Then it starts getting worse quickly, until many phone owners end up plugging in during the day. It seems it's always been this way, and there's no incentive to the smartphone makers to make this better. Battery has long been the focus of the mobile segment. In the early days of mobile the possible time away from a power outlet was not very long. This prompted OEMs to do what they could to make batteries in mobile devices last longer. This is why we now have decent battery life with most laptops and tablets. The eight hours needed to go all day no matter what comes up is now met by many mobile devices. Except the smartphone. Pick any smartphone in the top ranks and talk to those who've owned one for a while. Odds are, you'll hear a familiar tale — the phone easily lasted all day when new but that didn't last. If they've owned the phone over a year you'll probably hear about the antics they go through daily to have a phone that is still working at day's end. See related: Falling tablet sales: The problem is they're just too good | Necessary battery life for laptops: 8 hours So why hasn't smartphone battery life improved like that on tablets and laptops? I believe the reason is obvious — there is no incentive for OEMs to improve this. In fact, there's an incentive to keep things the way they've always been. In a recent article I explained that tablet owners aren't upgrading because current devices are good enough . There's no compelling reason for tablet owners to get the latest and greatest because the one they have is good enough. Good battery life is a big part of that satisfaction with tablets. Most of the top tablets get 10+ hours of battery life, and that's enough for just about everyone. Even over time when those tablet batteries start deteriorating, resulting in shorter battery life, they still last all day given the long life they start with when new. With smartphones it's a different story. Many are on the edge of all-day battery life to start, and they fall short as the battery ages. This is common. Take a stroll around the web and you'll find hundreds of articles with tips for "how to extend the battery on gadget X". Owners are trying to get through the day with a smartphone that's only a year old, and they'll do anything to make that happen. That includes trading in that phone when their US contract is up. I believe it's not just a hankering for the latest shiny smartphone available, it's also to get rid of their old one. They know from experience that their battery life issue will go away with a new phone, due to that new battery inside. This is why there is no incentive for smartphone makers to come up with a new battery technology with the same improvements we've seen in laptops and tablets. They need that two-year replacement cycle the phone contracts push, and the dying battery syndrome fuels that upgrade process. I'm not suggesting there's some hidden conspiracy behind the smartphone battery situation. I am pointing out that from a business perspective there is no incentive for smartphone makers to improve battery life as they have on other mobile devices. They are happy when you trade that phone in for a new one. They just hope you don't figure out what they are doing. If something's not broken, why fix it? | smartphone.107 |@lemmatized secret:1 behind:2 poor:1 smartphone:12 battery:22 life:13 summary:1 shiny:2 new:7 easily:2 last:6 day:10 go:4 downhill:1 rapidly:1 deteriorate:2 long:4 tolerate:1 owner:5 mainly:1 choice:1 phone:9 usually:1 meet:2 holy:1 grail:1 ability:1 first:1 start:4 get:5 worse:1 quickly:1 many:3 end:2 plug:1 seem:1 always:2 way:2 incentive:5 maker:3 make:3 good:5 focus:1 mobile:5 segment:1 early:1 possible:1 time:2 away:2 power:1 outlet:1 prompt:1 oems:2 could:1 device:4 longer:1 decent:1 laptop:4 tablet:9 eight:1 hour:3 need:2 matter:1 come:2 except:1 pick:1 top:2 rank:1 talk:1 one:4 odds:1 hear:2 familiar:1 tale:1 year:3 probably:1 antic:1 daily:1 still:2 work:1 see:2 related:1 fall:2 sale:1 problem:1 necessary:1 improve:3 like:1 believe:2 reason:2 obvious:1 fact:1 keep:1 thing:1 recent:1 article:2 explain:1 upgrading:1 current:1 enough:3 compelling:1 late:2 great:1 big:1 part:1 satisfaction:1 everyone:1 even:1 result:1 shorter:1 give:1 smartphones:1 different:1 story:1 edge:1 short:1 age:1 common:1 take:1 stroll:1 around:1 web:1 find:1 hundred:1 tip:1 extend:1 gadget:1 x:1 try:1 old:2 anything:1 happen:1 include:1 trading:1 u:1 contract:2 hankering:1 available:1 also:1 rid:1 know:1 experience:1 issue:1 due:1 inside:1 technology:1 improvement:1 two:1 replacement:1 cycle:1 push:1 die:1 syndrome:1 fuel:1 upgrade:1 process:1 suggest:1 hidden:1 conspiracy:1 situation:1 point:1 business:1 perspective:1 happy:1 trade:1 hope:1 figure:1 something:1 break:1 fix:1 |@ngramms battery_life:12 smartphone_battery:2 smartphone_owner:1 phone_owner:1 smartphone_maker:3 good_battery:1 long_focus:1 early_day:1 mobile_device:3 day_matter:1 give_long:1 life_start:1 happen_include:1 |
ParisAttacks2015_(28) | On the run from Isis: Jihadists 'targeting Paris attacker Salah Abdeslam for chickening out of killings' He said he regretted his part in the attacks, which had 'gone too far' The architect of the Paris attacks, Abdelhamid Abaaoud, is confirmed dead. Attention now shifts to the suspected terrorist who has been on the run since the night of the killings and is the most-wanted man in Europe - Salah Abdeslam. Flyers displaying his face are posted in every town in France. Investigators believe, however, that Abdeslam - the "eighth attacker" in the Paris massacres - may also be on the run from Isis. A Belgian website has reported that the only identified Black Friday attacker still alive approached a friend in Brussels on 17 November. He said he regretted his part in the attacks, which had "gone too far". He added that he dared not give himself up – as his brother has urged – because he feared Isis would take revenge against his family. Although based on the evidence of one unnamed source, this account fits the growing conviction of investigators that Abdeslam panicked on 13 November and did not complete the savage tasks, including his own "martyrdom", allocated to him by Isis. Investigators have established that Abdeslam – previously known mostly as a small-time Brussels criminal – wandered the Paris area for seven hours on Friday night and in the early hours of Saturday before fleeing to Belgium. Police have traced a mobile phone call that he made at 10.30pm – while the slaughter at the Bataclan concert hall was still in progress – asking friends to drive the 200 miles from Brussels to rescue him. Half an hour earlier, at around 10pm, he had dropped his older brother, Ibrahim, on boulevard Voltaire, near the Bataclan. Ibrahim, a small-time criminal and Brussels bar owner, with vague links with radical Islam, immediately blew himself up outside the Comptoir Voltaire bar. He caused no more than minor injuries to passers-by. "Nothing [in Abdeslam's movements] answers the description of a pre-planned escape," one French police source told The Independent. "It is possible he panicked or chickened out of killing himself. It is possible that he was disgusted by what he had been involved in or that his explosive suicide belt failed to detonate." Abdeslam is known, from CCTV images, to have been the driver of a black Seat which carried one of the three gangs of terrorists who struck on in Paris on 13 November. It was the car from which two gunmen – including his brother – emerged to machine gun people on the terraces of bars in the 11th and 11th arrondissements. After dropping his brother just before his self-inflicted death, Abdeslam and an unidentified "ninth" attacker, drove east to the hard-scrabble suburb of Montreuil just outside the city boundary. The Seat was found abandoned there on early on 14 November. He then appears to have doubled-back into Paris. Mobile telephone records show that he called two friends in Brussels from the Barbes area of the 18th arrondissement, not far from the Gare du Nord, at 10.30pm. He asked them to come and fetch him. They arrived at around 5am. Their Brussels-bound car was pulled over by gendarmes on the A2 motorway, near Cambrai, later that morning. Abdeslam showed the officers his Belgian ID card. He was allowed to go on because his connection with the Paris massacres did not emerge until later that day when it was found that cars used in the attacks had been hired in his name. The two young Belgians who came to fetch him, Hamza Attou and Mohammed Amri, are in custody. Belgian officials say they deny all other connection with the Paris atrocities. Two other facts deepen the mystery. In its first statement claiming responsibility for the Paris outrages on 14 November, Isis said that there had also been attacks in the 18th arrondissement. There were none. On 17 November, a black Clio with Belgian number plates was found abandoned in the 18th. It had also been hired by Abdeslam. Was he supposed to have carried out attacks in which never happened? If he had another car, why did he need to call friends in Belgium to make his getaway? It is also unclear what happened to the "ninth" attacker captured by security cameras with Abdeslam in the Seat as he left his brother to his death on boulevard Voltaire. According to the website of the Belgian magazine, La Capitale, Abdeslam was in Molenbeek-Saint Jean in the Belgian capital on the evening of 17 November. The magazine said that Abdeslam had asked a friend to meet him to pass a message to his family – and warn the friend against being drawn into radical Islam. "He told me that he had gone too far. He was overwhelmed by what had happened," the unnamed friend told La Capitale. But he could not give himself up… there might be consequences for his family. | ParisAttacks2015_(28) |@lemmatized run:3 isi:5 jihadist:1 target:1 paris:9 attacker:5 salah:2 abdeslam:13 chickening:1 killing:2 say:5 regret:2 part:2 attack:6 go:4 far:4 architect:1 abdelhamid:1 abaaoud:1 confirm:1 dead:1 attention:1 shift:1 suspected:1 terrorist:2 since:1 night:2 want:1 man:1 europe:1 flyer:1 display:1 face:1 post:1 every:1 town:1 france:1 investigator:3 believe:1 however:1 eighth:1 massacre:2 may:1 also:4 belgian:7 website:2 report:1 identified:1 black:3 friday:2 still:2 alive:1 approach:1 friend:7 brussels:6 november:7 add:1 dare:1 give:2 brother:5 urge:1 fear:1 would:1 take:1 revenge:1 family:3 although:1 base:1 evidence:1 one:3 unnamed:2 source:2 account:1 fit:1 grow:1 conviction:1 panic:2 complete:1 savage:1 task:1 include:2 martyrdom:1 allocate:1 establish:1 previously:1 know:2 mostly:1 small:2 time:2 criminal:2 wander:1 area:2 seven:1 hour:3 early:2 saturday:1 flee:1 belgium:2 police:2 trace:1 mobile:2 phone:1 call:3 make:2 slaughter:1 bataclan:2 concert:1 hall:1 progress:1 ask:3 drive:2 mile:1 rescue:1 half:1 earlier:1 around:2 drop:2 old:1 ibrahim:2 boulevard:2 voltaire:3 near:2 bar:3 owner:1 vague:1 link:1 radical:2 islam:2 immediately:1 blow:1 outside:2 comptoir:1 cause:1 minor:1 injury:1 passer:1 nothing:1 movement:1 answer:1 description:1 pre:1 plan:1 escape:1 french:1 tell:3 independent:1 possible:2 chickened:1 kill:1 disgust:1 involve:1 explosive:1 suicide:1 belt:1 fail:1 detonate:1 cctv:1 image:1 driver:1 seat:3 carry:2 three:1 gang:1 strike:1 car:4 two:4 gunman:1 emerge:2 machine:1 gun:1 people:1 terrace:1 arrondissements:1 self:1 inflict:1 death:2 unidentified:1 ninth:2 east:1 hard:1 scrabble:1 suburb:1 montreuil:1 city:1 boundary:1 find:3 abandoned:1 appear:1 double:1 back:1 telephone:1 record:1 show:2 barbes:1 arrondissement:2 gare:1 du:1 nord:1 come:2 fetch:2 arrive:1 bound:1 pull:1 gendarme:1 motorway:1 cambrai:1 later:2 morning:1 officer:1 id:1 card:1 allow:1 connection:2 day:1 use:1 hire:2 name:1 young:1 hamza:1 attou:1 mohammed:1 amri:1 custody:1 official:1 deny:1 atrocity:1 fact:1 deepen:1 mystery:1 first:1 statement:1 claim:1 responsibility:1 outrage:1 none:1 clio:1 number:1 plate:1 abandon:1 suppose:1 never:1 happen:3 another:1 need:1 getaway:1 unclear:1 capture:1 security:1 camera:1 leave:1 accord:1 magazine:2 la:2 capitale:2 molenbeek:1 saint:1 jean:1 capital:1 evening:1 meet:1 pass:1 message:1 warn:1 draw:1 overwhelm:1 could:1 might:1 consequence:1 |@ngramms run_isi:2 paris_attacker:1 salah_abdeslam:2 part_attack:2 paris_attack:1 abdelhamid_abaaoud:1 confirm_dead:1 suspected_terrorist:1 friend_brussels:1 small_time:2 paris_area:1 friday_night:1 early_hour:1 flee_belgium:1 phone_call:1 bataclan_concert_hall:1 half_hour:1 boulevard_voltaire:2 french_police:1 suicide_belt:1 black_seat:1 paris_november:1 early_november:1 record_show:1 connection_paris:2 claim_responsibility:1 abdeslam_suppose:1 carry_attack:1 unclear_happen:1 saint_jean:1 belgian_capital:1 message_family:1 |
michelle.obama.103 | Michelle Obama Goes Organic and Brings in the Bees Going organic in the White House was easy. Both Bubba's and W's kitchens did that with purchases from local farms and a nearby organic market. But homegrown fare, like what first lady Michelle Obama hopes to produce with her new spring vegetable garden on the South Lawn—now, that's more complicated. And not just because crops have to be planted and tended. Washington isn't really known for its population of honeybees, the buzzy bugs needed for pollination. So—you guessed it—the first-ever White House beehive has been installed. Charlie Brandts, a White House carpenter for 25 years, is now the First Beekeeper. He got the ball rolling when he told some of the East Wing staff about his hobby. "I was thinking about how cool it would be to bring bees to the White House," Brandts says. Word made it to chef Sam Kass, who asked Brandts if he could make White House honey to use in Obama family recipes. On Tuesday, Brandts brought in one of his hives and put it near the garden. While he's been in beekeeping for only three years, Brandts sounds like a longtime pro. "I'm trying to promote beekeeping," he tells Whispers. He started raising bees for the same reason the first lady dug her garden: "I wanted to eat healthier," he says. That meant shifting from sugar to honey. "But it kind of gets expensive," he says, "and I thought it can't be too hard to put together a few hives in my yard" in nearby Fairland, Md. While the hive has been welcomed by the first family, Brandts concedes that some workers had to be convinced that honeybees are largely harmless. (Ironically, it was some of the security staff who worried about getting stung.) As with many people with access to hives, the first family might get hooked on bees, and Brandts hopes to bring more hives in. "And if they don't like them, we can always take them out." | michelle.obama.103 |@lemmatized michelle:2 obama:3 go:2 organic:3 bring:4 bee:4 white:5 house:5 easy:1 bubba:1 w:1 kitchen:1 purchase:1 local:1 farm:1 nearby:2 market:1 homegrown:1 fare:1 like:3 first:6 lady:2 hop:1 produce:1 new:1 spring:1 vegetable:1 garden:3 south:1 lawn:1 complicated:1 crop:1 plant:1 tend:1 washington:1 really:1 know:1 population:1 honeybee:2 buzzy:1 bug:1 need:1 pollination:1 guess:1 ever:1 beehive:1 instal:1 charlie:1 brandt:4 carpenter:1 year:2 beekeeper:1 get:4 ball:1 roll:1 tell:2 east:1 wing:1 staff:2 hobby:1 think:2 cool:1 would:1 say:3 word:1 make:2 chef:1 sam:1 ka:1 ask:1 could:1 honey:2 use:1 family:3 recipe:1 tuesday:1 brandts:3 one:1 hive:5 put:2 near:1 beekeeping:2 three:1 sound:1 longtime:1 pro:1 try:1 promote:1 whisper:1 start:1 raise:1 reason:1 dig:1 want:1 eat:1 healthy:1 mean:1 shift:1 sugar:1 kind:1 expensive:1 hard:1 together:1 yard:1 fairland:1 md:1 welcome:1 concedes:1 worker:1 convince:1 largely:1 harmless:1 ironically:1 security:1 worry:1 stung:1 many:1 people:1 access:1 might:1 hook:1 hope:1 always:1 take:1 |@ngramms michelle_obama:2 white_house:5 obama_family:1 hope_bring:1 |
premier.league.61 | Premiership stays on BBC The BBC has won the rights to show Premier League highlights from 2007 until 2010. It means Match of the Day will continue on BBC One on Saturday nights and MOTD2 on Sundays for another four seasons. "This is the best possible news for us ahead of the World Cup," said Roger Mosey, the BBC's Head of Sport. "As well has having the World Cup until 2014, we now have every Premiership goal and all the main action free to people in the UK until 2010." The BBC had submitted a bid of £171.6m for the three-year period. Premier League Chief Executive Richard Scudamore said: "The BBC and Match of the Day have been almost synonymous with our great competition since it started. "This deal allows fans to continue to access its high-quality coverage through to the next decade. We are very pleased at the outcome. "The deal also gives our clubs the opportunity to showcase their football to the wide and varied audience that the BBC attracts. "The market for the highlights rights was very competitive and we were extremely impressed by other proposals. "However, we now look forward to extending the great relationship we have with the BBC, one that goes further than this rights deal." The BBC lost the rights to show Premiership highlights to ITV in 2000, but regained them in 2003 for £105m. Dominic Coles, the BBC's director of sports rights and finance, said: "The Premier League is the world's most successful domestic tournament and their rights are the most significant sports rights in the UK. So we're delighted that we will remain their key partner on terrestrial television." The Premier League has been issuing various rights packages for the period from 2007 to 2010. Irish pay-TV firm Setanta broke BSkyB's monopoly of live Premier League football matches by winning the rights to show 46 matches per season from 2007. BSkyB was given 92 live matches, including the "A" package of games on late Sunday afternoons. Other Premiership rights, including mobile rights and overseas rights are still to be determined. Match of the Day first appeared on BBC Television on 22 August 1964. | premier.league.61 |@lemmatized premiership:4 stay:1 bbc:11 win:2 right:12 show:3 premier:5 league:5 highlight:3 mean:1 match:6 day:3 continue:2 one:2 saturday:1 night:1 sunday:2 another:1 four:1 season:2 best:1 possible:1 news:1 u:1 ahead:1 world:3 cup:2 say:3 roger:1 mosey:1 head:1 sport:3 well:1 every:1 goal:1 main:1 action:1 free:1 people:1 uk:2 submit:1 bid:1 three:1 year:1 period:2 chief:1 executive:1 richard:1 scudamore:1 almost:1 synonymous:1 great:2 competition:1 since:1 start:1 deal:3 allow:1 fan:1 access:1 high:1 quality:1 coverage:1 next:1 decade:1 pleased:1 outcome:1 also:1 give:2 club:1 opportunity:1 showcase:1 football:2 wide:1 varied:1 audience:1 attract:1 market:1 competitive:1 extremely:1 impress:1 proposal:1 however:1 look:1 forward:1 extend:1 relationship:1 go:1 far:1 lose:1 itv:1 regain:1 dominic:1 cole:1 director:1 finance:1 successful:1 domestic:1 tournament:1 significant:1 delight:1 remain:1 key:1 partner:1 terrestrial:1 television:2 issue:1 various:1 package:2 irish:1 pay:1 tv:1 firm:1 setanta:1 break:1 bskyb:2 monopoly:1 live:2 per:1 include:2 game:1 late:1 afternoon:1 mobile:1 overseas:1 still:1 determine:1 first:1 appear:1 august:1 |@ngramms premier_league:5 match_day:3 saturday_night:1 world_cup:2 free_people:1 chief_executive:1 richard_scudamore:1 high_quality:1 pay_tv:1 football_match:1 show_match:1 live_match:1 package_game:1 sunday_afternoon:1 |
ParisAttacks2015_(10) | Hollande says Paris attacks 'an act of war' by Islamic State French President Francois Hollande said on Saturday the attacks in Paris that killed 127 people were "an act of war" organized from abroad by Islamic State with internal help. "Faced with war, the country must take appropriate action," he said, without saying what that meant. Hollande said he would address parliament on Monday in an extraordinary meeting and the country would observe three days of official mourning for the victims of Friday's attacks. The attacks at a stadium, concert hall and cafes and restaurants in northern and eastern Paris were "an act of war committed by Daesh that was prepared, organized and planned from outside (of France)" with help from inside France, Hollande said, using the Arabic acronym for Islamic State. "All measures to protect our compatriots and our territory are being taken within the framework of the state of emergency," he said. Islamic State released an undated video on Saturday urging Muslims to attack France. The coordinated assault on Friday evening came as France, a founder member of the U.S.-led coalition waging air strikes against Islamic State fighters in Syria and Iraq, was on high alert for terrorist attacks ahead of a global climate conference due to open later this month. The deadliest attack was on the Bataclan, a popular concert venue where the Californian rock group Eagles of Death Metal was performing. The concert hall is just a few hundred meters from the former offices of the satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo, target of a deadly attack by Islamist gunmen in January. Some witnesses in the hall said they heard the gunmen shout Islamic chants and slogans condemning France's role in Syria. | ParisAttacks2015_(10) |@lemmatized hollande:4 say:8 paris:3 attack:8 act:3 war:4 islamic:6 state:6 french:1 president:1 francois:1 saturday:2 kill:1 people:1 organize:2 abroad:1 internal:1 help:2 faced:1 country:2 must:1 take:2 appropriate:1 action:1 without:1 meant:1 would:2 address:1 parliament:1 monday:1 extraordinary:1 meeting:1 observe:1 three:1 day:1 official:1 mourning:1 victim:1 friday:2 stadium:1 concert:3 hall:3 cafe:1 restaurant:1 northern:1 eastern:1 commit:1 daesh:1 prepare:1 plan:1 outside:1 france:5 inside:1 use:1 arabic:1 acronym:1 measure:1 protect:1 compatriot:1 territory:1 within:1 framework:1 emergency:1 release:1 undated:1 video:1 urge:1 muslim:1 coordinated:1 assault:1 even:1 come:1 founder:1 member:1 u:1 lead:1 coalition:1 wag:1 air:1 strike:1 fighter:1 syria:2 iraq:1 high:1 alert:1 terrorist:1 ahead:1 global:1 climate:1 conference:1 due:1 open:1 later:1 month:1 deadly:2 bataclan:1 popular:1 venue:1 californian:1 rock:1 group:1 eagle:1 death:1 metal:1 perform:1 hundred:1 meter:1 former:1 office:1 satirical:1 weekly:1 charlie:1 hebdo:1 target:1 islamist:1 gunman:2 january:1 witness:1 hear:1 shout:1 chant:1 slogan:1 condemn:1 role:1 |@ngramms paris_attack:1 act_war:3 islamic_state:5 french_president:1 hollande_say_saturday:1 attack_paris:1 kill_people:1 parliament_monday:1 friday_attack:1 attack_stadium:1 concert_hall:2 eastern_paris:1 state_emergency:1 air_strike:1 syria_iraq:1 high_alert:1 terrorist_attack:1 conference_due:1 deadly_attack:2 concert_venue:1 rock_group:1 eagle_death_metal:1 charlie_hebdo:1 islamist_gunman:1 |
premier.league.21 | Power of top four concerns Keegan Keegan has been told he will have money to spend in the summer Newcastle boss Kevin Keegan fears the domination of the Premier League's top four is a threat to the top flight. Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool will again head the division for the third season running as they leave the rest trailing in their wake. "Maybe the owner thinks we can bridge that gap - but we can't," said Keegan after Monday's 2-0 loss to Chelsea. "This league is in danger of becoming one of the most boring but great leagues in the world." Keegan replaced Sam Allardyce at St James' Park in January and his comments will have extra resonance as he is renowned as one of the game's eternal optimists. He feels fifth is the best the clubs outside the 'big four' can realistically aim for - even with plenty of funds. 606: DEBATE Comment: Keegan wrong about 'boring' Premier League "The top four next year will be the same top four as this year," he added. "What I can say to the Newcastle fans is that we will be trying to get fifth and we will be trying to win the other league that's going on within the Premier League. "I haven't got enough money and I wouldn't be able to get the players anyway (to do any better than that), so I will soldier on with what I've got and maybe add one or two, maybe three, depending what's available." Keegan turned Newcastle into title contenders when he managed them from February 1992 until January 1997 but he feels it is not possible to do the same again. His opinion was reinforced during the Bank Holiday game against Chelsea, who clinched the win to move level on points with Manchester United at the top of the table ahead of the final game of the season. "I thought, 'What can I do next year to get near them' and the truth is there's nothing I can do at all," stated Keegan. It is frustrating that Modric, like Woodgate before him, should take less money than we offered to move to the bright lights of London and European football with Tottenham next season Newcastle chairman Chris Mort "I was looking around thinking, 'who can I bring on' and I'm seeing (Andriy) Shevchenko and (Frank) Lampard coming on and Joe Cole thinking about coming on." Keegan has, however, been promised funds to attract big-name signings. "Over the summer, we will look to strengthen the squad further," said chairman Chris Mort. "In addition to immediate fixes, we will want to acquire players that can help make Newcastle United a top team for the medium and long term." Newcastle have already missed out on the signing of midfielder Luka Modric, who rejected a lucrative offer to join Tottenham instead, just as Jonathan Woodgate did in January. But Mort is confident that Newcastle are heading in the right direction and that they will soon be in a position to attract players like the 22-year-old Croatian international. "It is frustrating that Modric, like Woodgate before him, should take less money than we offered to move to the bright lights of London and European football with Tottenham next season," conceded Mort. "But these are the sorts of difficulties that should get easier to address once we build a squad that competes at the right end of the table." And Keegan is positive he will get the funds he needs from owner Mike Ashley to improve his squad, saying: "I have no proof of that yet but I have no doubts he will (back me). "If I can get three or four players in to add to what I have got here - and we have that bit of luck you need with no injuries to key players - then we might be able to win the second division of the Premier League." | premier.league.21 |@lemmatized power:1 top:7 four:6 concern:1 keegan:10 tell:1 money:4 spend:1 summer:2 newcastle:7 bos:1 kevin:1 fear:1 domination:1 premier:4 league:7 threat:1 flight:1 manchester:2 unite:2 chelsea:3 arsenal:1 liverpool:1 head:2 division:2 third:1 season:4 run:1 leave:1 rest:1 trail:1 wake:1 maybe:3 owner:2 think:4 bridge:1 gap:1 say:4 monday:1 loss:1 danger:1 become:1 one:3 boring:1 great:1 world:1 replace:1 sam:1 allardyce:1 st:1 james:1 park:1 january:3 comment:2 extra:1 resonance:1 renowned:1 game:3 eternal:1 optimist:1 feel:2 fifth:2 best:1 club:1 outside:1 big:2 realistically:1 aim:1 even:1 plenty:1 fund:3 debate:1 wrong:1 bore:1 next:4 year:4 add:3 fan:1 try:2 get:9 win:3 go:1 within:1 enough:1 able:2 player:5 anyway:1 good:1 soldier:1 two:1 three:2 depend:1 available:1 turn:1 title:1 contender:1 manage:1 february:1 possible:1 opinion:1 reinforce:1 bank:1 holiday:1 clinch:1 move:3 level:1 point:1 table:2 ahead:1 final:1 near:1 truth:1 nothing:1 state:1 frustrate:2 modric:3 like:3 woodgate:3 take:2 less:2 offer:3 bright:2 light:2 london:2 european:2 football:2 tottenham:3 chairman:2 chris:2 mort:4 look:2 around:1 bring:1 seeing:1 andriy:1 shevchenko:1 frank:1 lampard:1 come:2 joe:1 cole:1 however:1 promise:1 attract:2 name:1 signing:2 strengthen:1 squad:3 far:1 addition:1 immediate:1 fix:1 want:1 acquire:1 help:1 make:1 united:1 team:1 medium:1 long:1 term:1 already:1 miss:1 midfielder:1 luka:1 reject:1 lucrative:1 join:1 instead:1 jonathan:1 confident:1 right:2 direction:1 soon:1 position:1 old:1 croatian:1 international:1 concede:1 sort:1 difficulty:1 easy:1 address:1 build:1 compete:1 end:1 positive:1 need:2 mike:1 ashley:1 improve:1 proof:1 yet:1 doubt:1 back:1 bit:1 luck:1 injury:1 key:1 might:1 second:1 |@ngramms money_spend:1 summer_newcastle:1 premier_league:4 manchester_unite:2 chelsea_arsenal:1 season_run:1 leave_rest:1 league_world:1 newcastle_fan:1 game_season:1 offer_move:2 bright_light:2 european_football:2 signing_summer:1 newcastle_united:1 long_term:1 |
debt.crisis.greece.263 | Not Out of The Woods Yet: Despite Progress, Euro Crisis Is Far From Over The Greek debt cut worked and the rescue package has gone through. So is the euro crisis over? By no means. The situation in Greece will take a turn for the worse again in a few weeks. The other euro nations will have to use the time until then to get their own houses in order -- especially Germany. For a change, everything has been going according to plan in the fight to save the euro in recent weeks. On Wednesday, euro-zone finance ministers gave the green light to the €130 billion ($170 billion) second rescue package for Greece. It's a pure formality after a satisfyingly large proportion of creditors agreed to a debt cut for Greece. Perhaps the most significant success of recent days is that even though the debt cut was deemed a so-called credit event, triggering the payment of the financial contracts known as credit default swaps, hardly anyone seemed to care. For more than two years, the international financial lobby had been warning the public and governments that these credit default swaps must under no circumstances be triggered, because that would cause a disaster similar to the meltdown that followed the 2008 collapse of Lehman Brothers. Their message, effectively, was that taxpayers should cover all the losses, rather than private-sector creditors. But the CDS horror scenario has failed to become reality. So has Greece been rescued and financial markets been tamed? Is the euro crisis a thing of the past? Unfortunately not. With their successes in the last few days, euro-zone politicians have done little more than bought themselves time. They must use this window to brace themselves for the next wave of the euro crisis which is about to crash down on Europe. It's already clear that the Greek economy can't survive with a government debt to GDP ratio that will -- at best -- still be at 117 percent in 2020, especially given the record pace at which the country's GDP is contracting. There is still no coherent strategy for making Greece competitive again inside the euro zone, or for raising the capital for the huge investments needed -- let alone for the wholesale revamp of the country's entire public administration. Greek Crisis Will Escalate Again And so Greece is likely to report the next set of disappointing budget figures in a few months, and the wrangling over a new debt cut and a new rescue package will start shortly afterwards. Maybe the next wave of the crisis will hit us even sooner: Greece is scheduled to hold an election on April 22 which is expected to produce a left-wing majority deeply opposed to the strict austerity program imposed by Brussels. The other euro-zone governments have at most a few more months, perhaps only a few weeks, before the situation in Greece worsens again. They must use this time to make clear that Greece is the exception within the euro zone, not the rule. The other euro states must quickly arrive at a point at which the fate of Greece simply isn't relevant for the future of the euro -- which of course doesn't mean that the Greeks should be left to their fate. That means that Portugal, Spain and Italy, the three other problem countries in the south of the euro zone, must perform the magic trick of stimulating growth while reducing their budget deficits. That can only succeed with a lot of pragmatism -- austerity without growth is as pointless as growth without austerity. That pragmatism also means that the other European finance ministers should keep calm in reaction to the news that Spain has revised up its projected 2012 budget deficit to 5.8 percent from a previously forecast 4.4 percent. Spain, too, is in a deep recession. It is an impressive feat even to have reduced new borrowing at all -- in 2011, Spain's budget deficit was 8.5 percent of GDP. Beyond Doubt It is petty of the Euro Group to insist that the country curb its 2012 deficit to 5.3 percent. What is far more important is the message: Rome, Madrid and Lisbon are heading in the right direction with their reforms. Italy, Spain and Portugal have -- unlike Greece -- competitive industrial sectors, a functioning public administration and a political consensus, admittedly fragile, that they have to pull themselves out of the mess they got themselves into by running up debts over years. Germany itself doesn't warrant such tolerance. The country is the euro zone's growth engine and its anchor of stability. If the debt crisis escalates again and engulfs other states, everything will depend on Germany -- and the long-term stability of Germany's finances must be beyond any doubt. Germany's tax revenues are at a record high and the interest it has to pay on new debt is close to zero. Despite this, Germany still missed its own cost-cutting targets in 2011 and is also falling behind on its goals for 2012. Before Germany admonishes Spain about its budget, it must make a greater effort itself. | debt.crisis.greece.263 |@lemmatized wood:1 yet:1 despite:2 progress:1 euro:16 crisis:7 far:2 greek:4 debt:8 cut:5 work:1 rescue:4 package:3 go:2 mean:4 situation:2 greece:11 take:1 turn:1 bad:1 week:3 nation:1 use:3 time:3 get:2 house:1 order:1 especially:2 germany:7 change:1 everything:2 accord:1 plan:1 fight:1 save:1 recent:2 wednesday:1 zone:7 finance:3 minister:2 give:2 green:1 light:1 billion:2 second:1 pure:1 formality:1 satisfyingly:1 large:1 proportion:1 creditor:2 agree:1 perhaps:2 significant:1 success:2 day:2 even:3 though:1 deem:1 call:1 credit:3 event:1 trigger:2 payment:1 financial:3 contract:2 know:1 default:2 swap:2 hardly:1 anyone:1 seem:1 care:1 two:1 year:2 international:1 lobby:1 warn:1 public:3 government:3 must:7 circumstance:1 would:1 cause:1 disaster:1 similar:1 meltdown:1 follow:1 collapse:1 lehman:1 brother:1 message:2 effectively:1 taxpayer:1 cover:1 loss:1 rather:1 private:1 sector:2 cd:1 horror:1 scenario:1 fail:1 become:1 reality:1 market:1 tame:1 thing:1 past:1 unfortunately:1 last:1 politician:1 little:1 buy:1 window:1 brace:1 next:3 wave:2 crash:1 europe:1 already:1 clear:2 economy:1 survive:1 gdp:3 ratio:1 best:1 still:3 percent:5 record:2 pace:1 country:5 coherent:1 strategy:1 make:3 competitive:2 inside:1 raise:1 capital:1 huge:1 investment:1 need:1 let:1 alone:1 wholesale:1 revamp:1 entire:1 administration:2 escalate:2 likely:1 report:1 set:1 disappointing:1 budget:5 figure:1 month:2 wrangling:1 new:4 start:1 shortly:1 afterwards:1 maybe:1 hit:1 u:1 sooner:1 schedule:1 hold:1 election:1 april:1 expect:1 produce:1 left:1 wing:1 majority:1 deeply:1 oppose:1 strict:1 austerity:3 program:1 impose:1 brussels:1 worsens:1 exception:1 within:1 rule:1 state:2 quickly:1 arrive:1 point:1 fate:2 simply:1 relevant:1 future:1 course:1 leave:1 portugal:2 spain:6 italy:2 three:1 problem:1 south:1 perform:1 magic:1 trick:1 stimulate:1 growth:4 reduce:2 deficit:4 succeed:1 lot:1 pragmatism:2 without:2 pointless:1 also:2 european:1 keep:1 calm:1 reaction:1 news:1 revise:1 projected:1 previously:1 forecast:1 deep:1 recession:1 impressive:1 feat:1 borrowing:1 beyond:2 doubt:2 petty:1 group:1 insist:1 curb:1 important:1 rome:1 madrid:1 lisbon:1 head:1 right:1 direction:1 reform:1 unlike:1 industrial:1 function:1 political:1 consensus:1 admittedly:1 fragile:1 pull:1 mess:1 run:1 warrant:1 tolerance:1 engine:1 anchor:1 stability:2 engulf:1 depend:1 long:1 term:1 tax:1 revenue:1 high:1 interest:1 pay:1 close:1 zero:1 miss:1 cost:1 target:1 fall:1 behind:1 goal:1 admonishes:1 great:1 effort:1 |@ngramms euro_crisis:4 debt_cut:4 rescue_package:3 situation_greece:2 house_order:1 euro_zone:7 finance_minister:2 billion_billion:1 recent_day:1 credit_default:2 international_financial:1 warn_public:1 financial_market:1 greek_economy:1 make_greece:1 huge_investment:1 public_administration:2 make_clear:1 spain_italy:1 country_south:1 spain_budget:2 group_insist:1 italy_spain:1 debt_crisis:1 long_term:1 germany_finance:1 record_high:1 |
samsung.galaxy.s5.30 | How Google Used Motorola To Smack Down Samsung -- Twice Samsung is giant. It employs 427,000 staff, has an annual turnover in excess of $270bn and assets of $600bn spread across over 80 business units. And Google just floored it twice using Motorola as a baseball bat. Why? On the surface having 81 per cent of Android marketshare would seem to make Google and Samsung best buddies. Samsung has been the driving force behind Android's meteoric growth and put Google mobile devices in pole position. The problem is Samsung wanted too much credit. It wasn't enough for Samsung to make the most popular Android phones and tablets, it had to hide Android – and consequently Google's role in its achievement. It did this using 'TouchWiz', the company's proprietary skin which painted over all aspects of Android leaving it unrecognisable. To the casual consumer they were buying 'a Samsung', Google's role was largely unrecognised. Then things got worse. Samsung began degrading Android performance by switching out vast parts of the software – phone dialler, calendar, email client, contacts, notification center, music and video player, voice control and much more – for its own apps. Reviews were largely negative with TouchWiz and its bloatware slowing down Android, wasting storage space and the replacement apps were seen as inferior or, worse still, needless gimmicks. Samsung then exploited this further. It put TouchWiz on its smart TVs, another market it dominates, and began building its own Android rival – Tizen – which, thanks to its TouchWiz interface, looks identical to the casual observer. The long term strategy was clear: switch over to Tizen and take the majority of the handset market with it. Google had to act. How? The 'how' was Motorola. On 15 August 2011 Google announced it had bought Motorola Mobility for $12.5bn in cash. With it Google acquired more than 20,000 mobile patents and publicly declared the purchase of the phone maker would not in any way compromise relationships with its handset partners… honestly, really, pinky swear. Of course Google didn't expect handset partners to fully believe this and platitudes issued from them in reaction to the deal confirmed it. Should Google use Motorola to ramp up its own major handset business the market would be theirs. The phones would have stock Android and no-one, not even Samsung, could afford to subsidise their cost as Google can leveraging its mammoth advertising revenue. The bait was set: obliteration by Google stock Android handsets unless manufacturers (read: Samsung) stopped messing with Android. Google quietly showed it could walk the walk as well as it ramped up Nexus production and introduced the well-received Motorola X and Motorola G which stripped away almost all customisation from stock Android. Samsung bit. On 27 January 2014 Google and Samsung signed a wide-ranging global patent deal which will last a decade. Buried within it was an agreement that Samsung would tone down TouchWiz, refocus on core Android apps over its own customisations and cancel more radical customisations such as its 'Magazine UX' interface. Two days later Google announced the sale of Motorola Mobility to Lenovo showing both agreements had been working in parallel. The consequences The smack down for Samsung is twofold. Firstly, despite its size and dominance of the Android market, Samsung has been brought back into line. No longer will Samsung run roughshod over Android's design, kick out its apps in favour of Samsung alternatives and hide Google's hard work underneath. Indications of a low key Galaxy S5 launch suggest it will stand by its word. Secondly, the jump off point for Samsung from Android to Tizen is no longer straightforward. With Android shining through more strongly in future Samsung handsets it won't be a seamless switch from one to the other. If Samsung wants Tizen to succeed it will now have to be earned rather than snuck in under the radar. All of which should be good news for Android users who will find it easier to move between handset makers when they upgrade while a stock Android experience (particularly with Android 4.4 KitKat's optimisations) will make for faster, more responsive budget devices. Whether it gives smaller handset makers a greater chance to compete with the all-conquering Samsung, however, remains to be seen. And what of Google's supposed $10bn loss? It's a misreported myth calculated by subtracting Motorola's $2.91bn sale price from its $12.5bn purchase. What it misses are the $3.2bn Motorola had in cash, $2.4bn saved in deferred tax assets and two separate Motorola unit sales totalling $2.5bn in 2013. Factor in Lenovo's purchase against roughly $2bn of Motorola losses during Google's ownership and Google has still only paid $3bn for what it retained: $5.5bn worth of Motorola patents and the company's cutting edge research lab. Well played Google. Well played. Curious on what the deal means for Motorola and Lenovo?

smartphone.74 | Samsung Waves away a million KOREAN ELECTRONICS CONGLOMERATE Samsung has managed to shift one million of its Wave smartphones. The Wave managed to reach the sales milestone in just four weeks, a feat that is made more important by the fact that the device is the first to run Samsung's Bada operating system. Putting Samsung's sales figures into perspective, Apple's first Iphone took over 80 days to reach the million mark. Bada is Samsung's attempt to move its devices away from proprietary operating systems that offer little in terms of expandability. Depending on the device's specifications, Bada could be deployed with either a Linux or some other real-time operating system. The firm is hoping that Bada becomes a credible alternative to other smartphone operating systems, and to that end Bada has an application store. The firm is currently running a competition to boost application development, though it expects to have 7,000 applications by the end of the year. In contrast, Apple's App Store already has over 200,000 applications and the Android Market is nearing 100,000. While Samsung might be pushing Bada, it has hedged its bets by producing a number of devices that run Google's Android operating system, and again, sales figures show that was a pretty good idea. The company has managed to flog the much vaunted Galaxy S to 300,000 punters in just 19 days. Those figures are all the more impressive when you realise that represents just South Korean sales and that the Galaxy S is targeted at the high-end market. Although overall figures are not quite up there with Motorola's Milestone, the rate is impressive and bodes well for both Samsung and Android developers. Such healthy sales figures should result in Samsung continuing its two-pronged approach to pursuing greater market share in smartphones. | smartphone.74 |@lemmatized samsung:8 wave:3 away:2 million:3 korean:2 electronics:1 conglomerate:1 manage:3 shift:1 one:1 smartphones:2 reach:2 sale:5 milestone:2 four:1 week:1 feat:1 make:1 important:1 fact:1 device:4 first:2 run:3 bada:6 operate:4 system:5 put:1 figure:5 perspective:1 apple:2 iphone:1 take:1 day:2 mark:1 attempt:1 move:1 proprietary:1 offer:1 little:1 term:1 expandability:1 depend:1 specification:1 could:1 deploy:1 either:1 linux:1 real:1 time:1 firm:2 hop:1 become:1 credible:1 alternative:1 smartphone:1 end:3 application:4 store:2 currently:1 competition:1 boost:1 development:1 though:1 expect:1 year:1 contrast:1 app:1 already:1 android:3 market:3 near:1 might:1 push:1 hedge:1 bet:1 produce:1 number:1 google:1 operating:1 show:1 pretty:1 good:1 idea:1 company:1 flog:1 much:1 vaunt:1 galaxy:2 punter:1 impressive:2 realise:1 represent:1 south:1 target:1 high:1 although:1 overall:1 quite:1 motorola:1 rate:1 bodes:1 well:1 developer:1 healthy:1 result:1 continue:1 two:1 pronged:1 approach:1 pursue:1 great:1 share:1 |@ngramms manage_shift:1 operate_system:4 sale_figure:3 reach_million:1 real_time:1 app_store:1 android_market:1 number_device:1 pretty_good:1 sale_galaxy:1 high_end:1 samsung_continue:1 market_share:1 |
ParisAttacks2015_(17) | Behind François Hollande's Snap Decision at Stade de France and the Unfolding Terror in Paris French president judged it too dangerous to send soccer crowds out where militants might be waiting PARIS—When the sound of a suicide bomber detonating an explosive vest rang out across the Stade de France, President François Hollande was in the stadium watching France's national soccer team take on Germany. Within minutes, the French leader was given alarming news. Paris was coming under attack from Islamic State militants, and Mr. Hollande had to decide whether it was safer to evacuate the stadium or keep thousands inside. Huddling with at least two other VIP fans of Les Bleus—French Football Federation President Noël le Graët and France's top cop, Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve—Mr. Hollande decided to let play go uninterrupted, according to French officials. That meant French midfielders Lassana Diarra and Antoine Griezmann would continue maneuvering on the pitch while, on the other side of town, the players' own family members became caught in the line of fire. But Mr. Hollande judged it was too dangerous to send the crowd scrambling into the streets where other militants might be waiting. Over a 33-minute period, three teams of militants working in close coordination struck a rock concert and five other sites, tearing through Paris in black cars and leaving at least 129 people dead, including Mr. Diarra's cousin. "She was a role model," Mr. Diarra said in a statement, "a supporter, a big sister." The onslaught blindsided a nation that was supposed to be one of the world's toughest on terrorism. Mr. Hollande had kept the country's security forces on high alert since the deadly January attacks on Charlie Hebdo and a kosher supermarket, passing new spying legislation that drew comparisons to the Patriot Act for its stringency. When the attacks started Friday, however, France was caught flat-footed. Mr. Hollande was enjoying the soccer game along with the relatives of people who had died in an unrelated tragedy: the crash of a Germanwings jetliner in the Alps. He was one of the few to leave the stadium during the game. Before the attacks unfolded, Parisians were busy partaking in a weekly ritual: flocking to the Right Bank of the Seine, where most of the city's liveliest night spots are located. Bertrand Gauthier, 41 years old, arrived at the Bataclan concert hall wearing a T-shirt silk-screened with a photo of his sons meeting the lead singer of Eagles of Death Metal, the California band performing at the venue that night. As the band launched into its set, the crowd joined in. "There were a lot of English speakers who were singing all the songs," Mr. Gauthier said, "The atmosphere was fantastic." A few blocks away, carnage was already unfolding. At 9:25 p.m., a team of militants pulled up to one of Paris's trendiest night spots in a black Seat hatchback, toting automatic weapons and explosive vests. Alexis Debreil, 38, was dining with two friends at the hip Cambodian eatery Le Petit Cambodge when a militant dressed in black tossed a firecracker onto a table near him, causing the diners to stand up. The militant opened fire, striking Mr. Debreil in the knee and one of his friends in the hip. Right across the street, a shooter sprayed a crowd of young people who were sipping beer at Le Carillon. By the time the shooters got back in the hatchback, 15 people were dead, including a woman lying next to Mr. Debreil. "I stroked her hair and said: 'Stay with us. Hang in there,' " he recalled. "Then she went completely white, and I knew she'd died." The Seat would hit three other bars and cafes, killing 24 more people. At their last stop, the Comptoir Voltaire, one militant blew himself up while the hatchback drove off. Police are still searching for whoever was inside the car. Across town at the Stade de France, the crowd heard a second explosion ring out at 9:30 p.m. Another suicide attacker had detonated his vest at Gate H of the stadium. Play continued as police updated Mr. Hollande and his interior minister on the unfolding crisis. Convening in a secure stadium skybox, Mr. Hollande and his aides felt "the stadium was the safest place for fans," said Laura Goutry, a spokeswoman for France's soccer federation. One suicide bomber, before detonating his vest, had tried to enter the stadium with a ticket to the game, according to security officials. A police official said authorities suspect the attacker aimed to provoke a stampede out of the stadium, forcing spectators onto the streets where two other attackers would have been lying in ambush. "The surroundings weren't yet secured," Ms. Goutry said. As halftime approached, authorities quietly put the stadium on lockdown, closing the exits and preventing fans from leaving, Ms. Goutry said. A third suicide bomber blew himself up at a McDonald's down the street from the stadium without killing anyone else. Mr. Hollande had another decision to make: whether to continue the game. Players would be kept in the dark about the events transpiring, so that fans wouldn't wonder if anything had gone wrong. As in many soccer games, the size of the crowd meant cellphone reception would be patchy. When Les Bleus piled into the locker room at halftime, manager Didier Deschamps and team officials decided not to tell the players what little they knew about "incidents in Paris," according to Philippe Tournon, spokesman for the French national team, adding that officials believed the inside of the stadium was secure. "It wasn't worth alarming the players who would have asked questions we didn't have answers to," Mr. Tournon said. Across town, the sister of Mr. Griezmann, the French midfielder, had been in the dark Bataclan, jamming to the Eagles of Death Metal. At 9:40, three gunmen clad in explosive vests jumped out of a black VW and stormed the theater, according to witnesses and prosecutors. The band was in the middle of a blaring rendition of its song "Kiss the Devil" that muffled the sound of the initial shots. Suddenly, the band fled the stage and the lights came on. Florian Nowak, a 22-year-old French army cadet who was at the concert with his father, saw a tall bearded man in a hooded sweatshirt cutting down concertgoers. "He was shooting continuously," said Mr. Nowak, who hid backstage, "reloading the gun and shooting again." Amid the hail of gunfire, many concertgoers became trapped near the stage while others scrambled toward the exits. A video camera captured people hanging out of third-floor windows as fleeing spectators dragged bodies from the concert hall. As the body count rose, the gunfire slowed. The killers moved methodically through the hall, executing people on the ground and reloading their weapons. In fluent French, they railed against Mr. Hollande, casting their attack as retaliation for France's involvement in the U.S.-led air campaign against Islamic State targets in Iraq and Syria, according to witnesses. SWAT teams took positions outside the historic concert hall as the militants took hostages. Twenty minutes after midnight, police stormed the building, firing at one militant who blew himself up, according to prosecutors. The other two militants followed suit moments later. When the smoke cleared, 89 people were dead inside the Bataclan, and the venue's parquet floor had turned red with blood, witnesses said. Ambulances streamed through the city, ferrying hundreds of wounded people to hospitals. Medical workers were well-prepared. Across Paris, hospitals had been scheduled to run drills on how to respond to attacks like the one that struck Charlie Hebdo, said Patrick Pelloux, an emergency-room doctor who was a first responder to the January assault. By the early hours of Saturday, Dr. Pelloux was overseeing a situation room that alerted 500 doctors and nurses. When Bataclan victims started pouring in, 60 operating tables were active, more than five times the usual number. "I saw blood everywhere. It was all over the floor, even in the elevator," said Johan Robert, a 30-year-old patient who was recovering from a motorcycle accident when victims began streaming into Hôpital Pitié-Salpêtrière. Back at Stade de France, the game had ended for more than an hour—France won 2-0—and spectators were allowed to leave, but players were forced to stay. Most players had learned about the attacks as they left the field. Germany's team, known as Die Mannschaft, already shaken up by a bomb threat at their hotel Friday morning, was desperate to leave Paris but couldn't figure out how. They needed a new flight or new hotel. Neither was available. "You could tell how shocked the players were," general manager Oliver Bierhoff said. French officials offered to house the players and coaches at Clairefontaine, the national training center. But Germany's 100-strong delegation was determined to stick together. The team chose to spend the night at the stadium, laying out mattresses on the floor. Les Bleus stayed too. In the middle of the night, Germany found a dawn flight to Frankfurt. That was France's cue to go home. Their bus finally crawled out of the Stade de France at 2:55 a.m., players glued to their phones. It was then that Mr. Griezmann got some good news: His sister was alive. "Thank God my sister was able to get out of the Bataclan," he tweeted. | ParisAttacks2015_(17) |@lemmatized behind:1 françois:2 hollande:11 snap:1 decision:2 stade:5 de:5 france:12 unfolding:3

premier.league.22 | Scudamore defends 'boring' League Premier League chief executive Richard Scudamore has defended claims from Newcastle manager Kevin Keegan that the dominance of the top four is "boring." Keegan made the claims after his side's 2-0 defeat to Chelsea on Sunday. "I don't think anyone in their right mind seriously thinks it is boring," said Scudamore. "I'm not saying he's going to regret what he has said but on reflection the word boring is probably not what Kevin really meant." He added: "The reality is that there is no-one who is interested in football who thinks the Premier League is boring. I don't believe it for one minute. 606: DEBATE It's about time a manager came in and spoke the truth! Every word he said was true! 50 years with nothing "Why is it the most watched? The numbers tell you it is the most exciting league in the world." Keegan said after Sunday's game: "This league is in danger of becoming one of the most boring but great leagues in the world." But Scudamore thinks that the 2007/08 season has been far from boring. "It is Kevin, we know Kevin and we love him, he is fantastic," said Scudamore. "His great quality is that he wears his heart on his sleeve and that is his great strength and that is why we love him. "But I think he's just gone through the heat of battle, he's just competed very, very well for 60 minutes, he thought he had a chance of winning the game and all of sudden they've lost 2-0 and then a microphone goes under his nose and he says that. "I don't think it is necessarily boring but it is a challenge for him to get Newcastle from where they are now into the top four and I don't necessarily think that is boring and is one he will attack with vigour and passion." Scudamore also defended the theory that the title race is too predictable and that the Premier League was just about the top four. He said: "There are a lot of different tussles that go on in the Premier League depending on whether you're at the top, in the middle or at the bottom that make it interesting. It is also for the good of English football that we now have teams dominating in Europe Richard Scudamore "In simple terms two of the three promoted clubs normally stay up so it is not necessarily the case that the promoted teams go down. "You just have to look at statistics which say that while it is hard to get in the Premier League and stay in the Premier League that does not necessarily make it boring." | premier.league.22 |@lemmatized scudamore:7 defends:1 bore:5 league:10 premier:6 chief:1 executive:1 richard:2 defend:2 claim:2 newcastle:2 manager:2 kevin:4 keegan:3 dominance:1 top:4 four:3 make:3 side:1 defeat:1 chelsea:1 sunday:2 think:8 anyone:1 right:1 mind:1 seriously:1 boring:5 say:9 go:5 regret:1 reflection:1 word:2 probably:1 really:1 meant:1 add:1 reality:1 one:4 interested:1 football:2 believe:1 minute:2 debate:1 time:1 come:1 speak:1 truth:1 every:1 true:1 year:1 nothing:1 watched:1 number:1 tell:1 exciting:1 world:2 game:2 danger:1 become:1 great:3 season:1 far:1 know:1 love:2 fantastic:1 quality:1 wear:1 heart:1 sleeve:1 strength:1 heat:1 battle:1 compete:1 well:1 chance:1 win:1 sudden:1 lose:1 microphone:1 nose:1 necessarily:4 challenge:1 get:2 attack:1 vigour:1 passion:1 also:2 theory:1 title:1 race:1 predictable:1 lot:1 different:1 tussle:1 depend:1 whether:1 middle:1 bottom:1 interesting:1 good:1 english:1 team:2 dominate:1 europe:1 simple:1 term:1 two:1 three:1 promote:1 club:1 normally:1 stay:2 case:1 promoted:1 look:1 statistic:1 hard:1 |@ngramms premier_league:6 chief_executive:1 richard_scudamore:2 league_world:2 great_quality:1 wear_heart:1 chance_win:1 english_football:1 |
samsung.galaxy.s5.39 | Samsung Galaxy S5 Active just got a 'Sport'-y new name on Sprint The Samsung Galaxy S5 Active is already only rudimentarily different from the standard Galaxy S5, and now a third variant is being introduced by Samsung and Sprint. But the Galaxy S5 Sport, as it's called, is even less different from the S5 Active than the Active was from the original. In fact, it's more or less identical, with the new name being the only discernible difference. The carrier is nevertheless calling the Galaxy S5 Sport an "exclusive," so that's fun. Not this again To be fair, there are aspects of the S5 Sport - including available colors and included apps - that are actually exclusive to Sprint. The Sprint phone will come in "cherry red" and "electric blue," and it's pre-loaded with a new Sprint Fit Live fitness app package in addition to the Active's Activity Zone, S Health and heart rate monitor Like the S5 Active, the S5 Sport has IP67 water and dust resistance, a step up from the standard S5's slightly less effective water resistance. The Sport also has the Active's upgraded "textured casing." It arrives "exclusively" on Sprint July 25. Let's just hope other carriers don't follow suit and spark a resurgence of naming every phone something different for each of their networks.

cypriot.financial.crisis.36 | Criminals IN Government: Cyprus President's Family Transferred Tens Of Millions To London Days Before Deposit Haircuts By Zero Hedge A day after former Cypriot President Vassilou was found to be among many elite Cypriot (politicians and businessmen) who had loans written-off by the major (now insolvent) banks; it appears the rot is far fouler than expected. In a somewhat stunning (or purely coincidental) revelation, ENETEnglish reports that Cypriot newspaper Haravgi claims that current President Nicos Anastasiades' family businesses transferred 'dozens of millions' from their Laiki Bank accounts to London just a week before the devastating depositor haircuts were unleashed upon his people. Of course, the denials are loud and Anastasiades has demanded an investigation into the claims; we are sure the government-selected 'independent' committee will be as thorough as the Libor anti-trust investigators. As a reminder, as we noted yesterday, here are Cyprus' gun control laws. Via EnetEnglish, A company owned by in-laws of Cypriot President Nicos Anastasiades withdrew dozens of millions from Laiki Bank on March 12 and 13, according to an article published in Cypriot newspaper Haravgi. The newspaper, which is affiliated to the communist-rooted AKEL party, reports that three days before the Eurogroup meeting the company took five promissory notes worth €21m from Laiki Bank and transferred the money to London. Responding to the allegations, Anastasiades said: "The attempt to defame companies or people linked to my family… is nothing but an attempt to distract people from the liability of those who led the country to a state of bankruptcy." The president added that no one, including himself, will be exempt from the ongoing investigations looking into responsibilities over the near collapse of the economy. Anastasiades added that when the investigative committee convenes on Tuesday, he will request that its members look into this particular case with the same attentiveness as all other cases. The company in question has firmly denied the reports. Last Friday a list of companies and politicians that had loans written off by banks at the heart of Cyprus' bailout crisis was published in Greece and was subsequently handed to the Cypriot parliament's ethics committee. The list includes the names of politicians from Cyprus' biggest parties (excluding the socialist EDEK and the Greens). | cypriot.financial.crisis.36 |@lemmatized criminal:1 government:2 cyprus:4 president:5 family:3 transfer:3 ten:1 million:3 london:3 day:3 deposit:1 haircut:2 zero:1 hedge:1 former:1 cypriot:6 vassilou:1 find:1 among:1 many:1 elite:1 politician:3 businessmen:1 loan:2 write:2 major:1 insolvent:1 bank:5 appear:1 rot:1 far:1 foul:1 expect:1 somewhat:1 stunning:1 purely:1 coincidental:1 revelation:1 enetenglish:2 report:3 newspaper:3 haravgi:2 claim:2 current:1 nicos:2 anastasiades:5 business:1 dozen:2 laiki:3 account:1 week:1 devastate:1 depositor:1 unleashed:1 upon:1 people:3 course:1 denial:1 loud:1 demand:1 investigation:2 sure:1 select:1 independent:1 committee:3 thorough:1 libor:1 anti:1 trust:1 investigator:1 reminder:1 note:2 yesterday:1 gun:1 control:1 law:2 via:1 company:5 withdrew:1 march:1 accord:1 article:1 publish:2 affiliate:1 communist:1 root:1 akel:1 party:2 three:1 eurogroup:1 meet:1 take:1 five:1 promissory:1 worth:1 money:1 respond:1 allegation:1 say:1 attempt:2 defame:1 link:1 nothing:1 distract:1 liability:1 lead:1 country:1 state:1 bankruptcy:1 add:2 one:1 include:2 exempt:1 ongoing:1 look:2 responsibility:1 near:1 collapse:1 economy:1 investigative:1 convenes:1 tuesday:1 request:1 member:1 particular:1 case:2 attentiveness:1 question:1 firmly:1 deny:1 last:1 friday:1 list:2 heart:1 bailout:1 crisis:1 greece:1 subsequently:1 hand:1 parliament:1 ethic:1 name:1 big:1 exclude:1 socialist:1 edek:1 green:1 |@ngramms cypriot_president:2 cypriot_politician:1 loan_write:2 cypriot_newspaper:2 claim_current:1 dozen_million:2 company_law:1 bank_march:1 party_report:1 meet_company:1 note_worth:1 transfer_money:1 london_respond:1 company_people:1 link_family:1 lead_country:1 ongoing_investigation:1 economy_anastasiades:1 tuesday_request:1 company_question:1 company_politician:1 bank_heart:1 cyprus_bailout:1 crisis_publish:1 cypriot_parliament:1 list_include:1 politician_cyprus:1 big_party:1 |
michelle.obama.80 | Michelle Obama celebrates Chicago roots DENVER -- It was about family. And Chicago. The first day of the Democratic National Convention on Monday featured Michelle Obama talking about her family and saying "That is why I love this country." It was obviously designed as an answer to Republicans who have tried to portray her as unpatriotic, quoting a line in a speech in which Michelle Obama said her husband's run for the president was "the first time" she could be proud of her country. But Monday was also orchestrated to show the softer side of the South Side woman who could become the nation's first African-American first lady. As with the roll-out of running mate Joe Biden on Saturday, the emphasis was all on family and working-class roots. And on Monday, it was also about presenting Michelle Obama as the girl next door. "I come here as a daughter -- raised on the South Side of Chicago by a father who was a blue-collar city worker, and a mother who stayed at home with my brother and me," Obama told an enthusiastic crowd waving vertical blue "Michelle" banners. Closing the first night of the convention, her speech also aimed to present her husband as a common man with family experiences voters can relate to. "The Barack Obama I know today is the same man I fell in love with 19 years ago," she said, her voice thick with emotion. "He's the same man who drove me and our new baby daughter home from the hospital 10 years ago this summer, inching along at a snail's pace, peering at us anxiously in the rearview mirror, feeling the whole weight of her future in his hands, determined to give her everything he'd struggled so hard for himself, determined to give her something he never had: the affirming embrace of a father's love," she said. Michelle Obama was introduced by a video presentation featuring her mother, then a live introduction from her brother, Craig Robinson, who evaluated his sister's suitor by playing basketball with him when Obama first started dating Michelle. Robinson talked about conversations with his sister late into the night growing up. "When I wasn't happy doing what I was doing -- investment banking -- she was the one who encouraged me to go back to my first love, teaching and coaching," he said to cheers. The afternoon and evening of speeches also showcased Obama's broader Chicago political family and friends. Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan watched as his daughter, Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan, talked about eating sandwiches with Obama on the state Senate floor. One row up in the Illinois delegation, former state Senate President Tom Hynes watched as his son, state Comptroller Dan Hynes, spoke of being the first elected official in the nation to call on Obama to run for president. The night's finale belonged to the youngest Obamas. As Michelle Obama finished speaking and her daughters, Malia and Sasha, came out on stage, Barack Obama's live image appeared on-screen behind them praising his wife's performance. "Love you Daddy!" his daughters shouted. The trio of young Illinois presumptive rising stars who spoke Monday -- all of them toying with the idea of running for governor -- closed with Treasurer Alexei Giannoulias. Another second-generation familiar name, Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr., won a covetted prime-time spot. Obama's mentor, State Senate President Emil Jones; Chicago City Clerk Miguel Del Valle; and the man who brought Obama to Chicago, Jerry Kellman, also spoke, The younger Jackson explained how Obama won over voters of different backgrounds all over Illinois to win his senate seat four years ago and he said Obama's election as president could fulfill Martin Luther King Jr.'s dream. "Forty-five years to the day after a young preacher called out, 'Let freedom ring,'" Jackson said. "Let history show in this fourth week of August in this Mile-High City, freedom in America has never rung from a higher mountaintop than it does here today." Giannoulias said he was Obama's basketball buddy -- Obama considers it good luck to play basketball with Giannoulias on election mornings. "My parents came to this country as Greek immigrants with nothing," Giannoulias said. "But whether your story begins in a small Greek village, or the plains of Kansas, or on the streets of Chicago, we're Americans because we all share the promise of that story." | michelle.obama.80 |@lemmatized michelle:8 obama:19 celebrate:1 chicago:7 root:2 denver:1 family:5 first:8 day:2 democratic:1 national:1 convention:2 monday:4 feature:2 talk:3 say:9 love:5 country:3 obviously:1 design:1 answer:1 republican:1 try:1 portray:1 unpatriotic:1 quote:1 line:1 speech:3 husband:2 run:4 president:5 time:2 could:3 proud:1 also:5 orchestrate:1 show:2 soft:1 side:3 south:2 woman:1 become:1 nation:2 african:1 american:2 lady:1 roll:1 mate:1 joe:1 biden:1 saturday:1 emphasis:1 work:1 class:1 present:2 girl:1 next:1 door:1 come:3 daughter:5 raise:1 father:2 blue:2 collar:1 city:3 worker:1 mother:2 stay:1 home:2 brother:2 tell:1 enthusiastic:1 crowd:1 wave:1 vertical:1 banner:1 close:2 night:3 aim:1 common:1 man:4 experience:1 voter:2 relate:1 barack:2 know:1 today:2 fell:1 year:4 ago:3 voice:1 thick:1 emotion:1 drive:1 new:1 baby:1 hospital:1 summer:1 inch:1 along:1 snail:1 pace:1 peer:1 u:1 anxiously:1 rearview:1 mirror:1 feel:1 whole:1 weight:1 future:1 hand:1 determine:2 give:2 everything:1 struggle:1 hard:1 something:1 never:2 affirm:1 embrace:1 introduce:1 video:1 presentation:1 live:2 introduction:1 craig:1 robinson:2 evaluate:1 sister:2 suitor:1 play:2 basketball:3 start:1 date:1 conversation:1 late:1 grow:1 happy:1 investment:1 banking:1 one:2 encourage:1 go:1 back:1 teaching:1 coaching:1 cheer:1 afternoon:1 evening:1 showcased:1 broad:1 political:1 friend:1 illinois:5 house:1 speaker:1 michael:1 madigan:2 watch:2 attorney:1 general:1 lisa:1 eat:1 sandwich:1 state:4 senate:4 floor:1 row:1 delegation:1 former:1 tom:1 hynes:2 son:1 comptroller:1 dan:1 spoke:1 elect:1 official:1 call:2 finale:1 belong:1 young:4 obamas:1 finish:1 speaking:1 malia:1 sasha:1 stage:1 image:1 appear:1 screen:1 behind:1 praise:1 wife:1 performance:1 daddy:1 shout:1 trio:1 presumptive:1 rise:1 star:1 speak:2 toy:1 idea:1 governor:1 treasurer:1 alexei:1 giannoulias:4 another:1 second:1 generation:1 familiar:1 name:1 rep:1 jesse:1 jackson:3 jr:2 win:3 covetted:1 prime:1 spot:1 mentor:1 emil:1 jones:1 clerk:1 miguel:1 del:1 valle:1 bring:1 jerry:1 kellman:1 explain:1 different:1 background:1 seat:1 four:1 election:2 fulfill:1 martin:1 luther:1 king:1 dream:1 forty:1 five:1 preacher:1 let:2 freedom:2 ring:2 history:1 fourth:1 week:1 august:1 mile:1 high:2 america:1 mountaintop:1 buddy:1 considers:1 good:1 luck:1 morning:1 parent:1 greek:2 immigrant:1 nothing:1 whether:1 story:2 begin:1 small:1 village:1 plain:1 kansa:1 street:1 share:1 promise:1 |@ngramms michelle_obama:6 democratic_national:1 convention_monday:1 run_president:2 proud_country:1 south_side:2 african_american:1 work_class:1 city_worker:1 barack_obama:2 man_drive:1 future_hand:1 determine_give:2 mother_live:1 start_date:1 michelle_robinson:1 late_night:1 chicago_political:1 family_friend:1 daughter_malia:1 prime_time:1 chicago_city:1 obama_win:1 obama_election:1 |
michelle.obama.123 | Michelle Obama, Rihanna Named To People's Best Dressed List Michelle Obama is the first to admit she is a bargain hunter when it comes to fashion and it's paid off as her effortless style has made People magazine's Best Dressed list for 2008. When she was a guest on "The View," one mention from Michelle noting that she bought her sundress off-the-rack at a chain store started a fashion frenzy for the item. Joining Michelle on the list, which didn't rank the stars in any particular order, was Sarah Jessica Parker. Not only is her style sophisticated, but it takes a special kind of dresser to make a flowerpot hat look chic, which Sarah Jessica did at the "Sex and The City" movie premiere in London. In naming her to their list, People wrote Sarah Jessica "effortlessly mixes high-end and affordable prices," no doubt referring to her Bitten line, which sells in the economical fashion chain store, Steve & Barry. Gwyneth Paltrow and her short dresses got her on to People's list because "she plays up her legs," according to the mag. As for Rihanna, it was her stylish hair that helped secure the singer's spot on the list. She was also praised because she "straddles the line between sweet and street." Also named to the best dressed list were supermodel and TV host Heidi Klum, singer Fergie, actress Charlize Theron and actresses Kate Hudson, Eva Mendes and Anne Hathaway. While People stopped short of naming a Worst Dressed list, they did call out several stars including "American Idol" judge Paula Abdul, actresses Lucy Liu, Sienna Miller and Tilda Swinton, and singers Solange Knowles and Tori Amos for wearing the "Worst Dresses."

ParisAttacks2015_(12) | France Unsure if Raid Killed Top Suspect in Paris Attacks ST.-DENIS, France — The assault began before dawn Wednesday at a decrepit squat in a close suburb of Paris when scores of French police officers stormed a third-floor apartment in search of their elusive quarry: Abdelhamid Abaaoud, a Belgian suspected of organizing last week's deadly attacks in Paris by the Islamic State. To get through a reinforced door, the police had to set explosives, giving the people inside time to prepare. A furious firefight ensued, with the police unleashing 5,000 rounds over the next hour and employing snipers and grenades. A female suicide bomber exploded her vest, collapsing the floor. When it was all over, the police had swept eight people into custody and found at least two mangled bodies. Mr. Abaaoud had not been taken alive, the authorities said — and it was not clear whether one of the bodies was his. I am not able to give you the definitive number and identities of the people who were killed," the Paris prosecutor, François Molins, said, adding that neither Mr. Abaaoud nor Salah Abdeslam, another suspect in the attacks who has been on the loose, was among those arrested. The day of further violence left Paris on edge once again and much of the world transfixed as the manhunt for Mr. Abaaoud and his accomplices played out. Evening brought only uncertainty about whether the threat had been eradicated or whether Mr. Abaaoud, who has boasted of eluding capture, remained at large. Another aspect of the case centered on the identity of the female suicide bomber, believed to be the first woman affiliated with the Islamic State to have blown herself up, other than those with Boko Haram, the militant Islamist group in Nigeria. Two French intelligence officials briefed on the investigation said she was believed to be a cousin of Mr. Abaaoud, Hasna Aitboulahcen, 26, who worked for a nearby company. Mr. Molins suggested that the raid might have averted another terrorist attack, given the determination and organization shown by the group and the extent of its weaponry. "This commando group was ready to act," he said. The breakthrough appeared to have come with a tip on Monday night: Mr. Abbaoud, an Islamic State militant linked to a series of previous attacks, was not in Syria, as some intelligence officials had thought, or his native Belgium. If the tip was to be believed, he was in France. The authorities pored over telephone and banking records, Mr. Molins said. One clue led to another, until the authorities concluded that it was likely that Mr. Abbaoud was holed up in St.-Denis, the suburb on the northern edge of Paris where the attacks began last Friday night at 9:20 p.m. with a suicide explosion at the nearby national soccer stadium. At 4:20 a.m. Paris time on Wednesday, police assault teams stormed the three-story building on the Rue du Corbillon, which local officials and neighbors described as a drug-infested and dangerous street that has many squatters. Backed by truckloads of soldiers, 110 officers from two special police units cordoned off an area near the Place Jean Jaurès, a main square in the medieval heart of the city. Advertisement Continue reading the main story Djamila Khaldi, a 54-year-old cashier who lives near the basilica, was preparing to take her daughter to the airport when the gunfire erupted. Ms. Khaldi said she was not surprised the police had tracked the suspects to the neighborhood. She said a friend of hers believed she had seen Mr. Abdeslam on Monday. "She was terrified, and she looked at another woman knowing that she recognized him too," Ms. Khaldi said. "They did not dare to go to the police." The police conducted a simultaneous raid on the nearby Boulevard Carnot, the home of someone identified as having been in contact with the people at the Rue du Corbillon. The apartment was empty and no weapons were found there, but a man and a woman outside the apartment were detained. Before he was handcuffed and led away by the police, the man told Agence France-Presse that he had lent the apartment to the men as a favor to a friend: "I said that there was no mattress, they told me, 'It's not a problem,' they just wanted water and to pray." St.-Denis, a city of 118,000, is known for its melting-pot population and large Muslim community, as well as a Gothic basilica where many French monarchs are buried. As the raids were being carried out, the police shouted at pedestrians to get off the street or seek cover; officers even broke through the door of a small church, St.-Denys de l'Estrée, chasing down what turned out to be a false alarm. At 11:47 a.m., after more than seven hours, a government spokesman, Stéphane Le Foll, declared that the operation was over. Five police officers were slightly wounded, and a 7-year-old police dog, a Malinois named Diesel, was killed. Prime Minister Manuel Valls, Defense Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian and Justice Minister Christiane Taubira had joined President François Hollande and Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve at the Élysée Palace to monitor the operation. The raid was just the most spectacular of an aggressive counterterrorism campaign the French government has been conducting since Friday night. Officials said Wednesday that they had identified all 129 who were killed Friday. Mr. Cazeneuve said Wednesday that the police had conducted 414 raids across the country over the past three nights. Sixty people have been arrested and detained, and 75 weapons seized, including 11 heavy weapons, 33 long firearms and 31 handguns, the statement said. An additional 118 people were put under house arrest. Officials have been piecing together the planning for the attacks. They said that some of the plotters had rented a house in the northeast Paris suburb of Bobigny, and others took a hotel suite in the southeast Paris suburb of Alfortville. Mr. Molins said a cellphone found in a trash can near the Bataclan concert hall, where 89 people died Friday, had led the police to the Alfortville hotel. The phone contained a text message — "on est parti on commence" — that loosely translates as "here we go, we're starting" or as "we have left, we're starting." Mr. Molins said investigators had determined that the attackers arrived in Paris on Thursday in three cars rented by Mr. Abdeslam and his brother Ibrahim, who would blow himself up in a cafe on Friday night after shooting numerous Parisians in bars and restaurants. After the raids, Mr. Hollande told a conference of French mayors that the operation "confirms that we are at war." He said he would travel to Washington next week to meet with President Obama, and to Moscow two days later to meet with President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia, to discuss the formation of "a large coalition" to act "decisively" against the Islamic State, which is also known as ISIS or ISIL. "Daesh has financial and oil resources, and has created young radical Islamists through complicity in Europe and within our own country," Mr. Hollande told the gathering, using the Arabic acronym for the Islamic State. "Their attacks bloodied Paris and St.-Denis," he added, "but it is the entire country that has been attacked." Mr. Hollande declared a state of emergency on Friday and has sought sweeping new authority, including constitutional amendments, which he says would make it easier to fight terrorism. On Wednesday, he said the government would help the mayors equip and arm local police officers. He also said that the government was introducing legislation that would make it possible to "immediately" dissolve organizations that glorify terrorism. "I say it firmly: France will remain the country of liberty, of movements, of culture," he said. "An active, valiant, dynamic country." "What would France be without its museums, without its terraces, without its concerts, without its sports competitions?" he added. Belgium, where Mr. Abaaoud is believed to have organized the attacks, remained on a state of high alert on Wednesday. The number of federal police officers patrolling Brussels will be doubled starting Thursday, to 40 from 20 during the day, and to 30 from 15 at night, Interior Minister Jan Jambon announced. Molenbeek, a working-class Brussels neighborhood, was the base for Mr. Abaaoud, the plotting suspect, and for the Abdeslam brothers. (A third brother, Mohamed, who lives there, was not involved in the attacks and has pleaded for Salah to turn himself in.) In Molenbeek on Wednesday, some 2,000 people gathered in the market square, not far from where Mr. Abaaoud grew up, to mourn the victims of the Paris attacks. Security was tight — police frisked everyone upon entering — but the vigil went on without incident. | ParisAttacks2015_(12) |@lemmatized france:6 unsure:1 raid:7 kill:4 top:1 suspect:5 paris:12

samsung.galaxy.s5.42 | Samsung: Galaxy S5 sales stronger than Galaxy S4 In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Samsung's co-chief executive and head of the mobile business J.K. Shin confirmed what some reports already revealed – that the Galaxy S5 has been selling very well in the first month – and provided a sales number for the phone's first month. Shin said that Samsung managed to sell 11 million Galaxy S5 units in the first month, beating the Galaxy S4 first month sales by 1 million units. "It's been a month since we began selling the S5, and out of the gate, sales are much stronger than the Galaxy S4," Shin said, adding that sales are particularly good in developed markets including the U.S., Australia and Germany. Shin explained that the better Galaxy S5 performance is due to "better preparations than in previous years," including a wider roll out, major carrier agreements and expanded presence in stores such as Best Buy. Interestingly, Shin said that when designing the Galaxy S5, Samsung took into account input received from after-service centers. Apparently 30% of the phones brought to its service centers were turned in "because people were spilling coffee over them or dropping them in water." Shin also sort of acknowledged that the phone could be better, but defended the product, which received some criticism following its launch. "It may not have eye-popping technology but the features are practical," said Mr. Shin. Samsung also said that in the coming months, variations of the Galaxy S5 will be released in various countries without revealing their product names. The company is expected to soon launch a Galaxy S5 Prime and a Galaxy S5 Active. | samsung.galaxy.s5.42 |@lemmatized samsung:5 galaxy:11 sale:5 strong:2 interview:1 wall:1 street:1 journal:1 co:1 chief:1 executive:1 head:1 mobile:1 business:1 j:1 k:1 shin:7 confirm:1 report:1 already:1 reveal:2 sell:3 well:1 first:4 month:6 provide:1 number:1 phone:3 say:5 manage:1 million:2 unit:2 beat:1 since:1 begin:1 gate:1 much:1 add:1 particularly:1 good:4 developed:1 market:1 include:2 u:1 australia:1 germany:1 explain:1 performance:1 due:1 preparation:1 previous:1 year:1 wider:1 roll:1 major:1 carrier:1 agreement:1 expand:1 presence:1 store:1 best:1 buy:1 interestingly:1 design:1 take:1 account:1 input:1 receive:2 service:2 center:2 apparently:1 bring:1 turn:1 people:1 spill:1 coffee:1 drop:1 water:1 also:2 sort:1 acknowledge:1 could:1 defend:1 product:2 criticism:1 follow:1 launch:2 may:1 eye:1 pop:1 technology:1 feature:1 practical:1 mr:1 coming:1 variation:1 release:1 various:1 country:1 without:1 name:1 company:1 expect:1 soon:1 prime:1 active:1 |@ngramms samsung_galaxy:1 sale_strong:1 wall_street:1 chief_executive:1 mobile_business:1 sale_number:1 samsung_manage:1 sell_million:1 galaxy_unit:1 beat_galaxy:1 million_unit:1 strong_galaxy:1 australia_germany:1 galaxy_performance:1 major_carrier:1 design_galaxy:1 service_center:2 phone_bring:1 galaxy_release:1 launch_galaxy:1 galaxy_active:1 |
samsung.galaxy.s5.29 | Google Has Strangled The Innovation Out Of The Samsung Galaxy S5's TouchWiz UI Samsung took to the stage at MWC this evening to introduce their next flagship smartphone. The Samsung Galaxy S5 will launch worldwide on April 11, and the South Korean company showed off the new hardware in Barcelona. The S5 hardware sports biometrics, fitness sensors, and waterproofing, along with a faster processor and improved screen when compared to the S4. What hasn't changed is the user interface. Even if Samsung had wanted to bring a new paradigm to the platform, a recent agreement with Google forced the S5 to remain closely aligned to stock Android. The South Korean company has spent many years pushing TouchWiz, their own UI layer, onto the 200 million Galaxy S units sold, minimizing the moments where Google is visible to the customer and delivering an experience they believe is suitable for their user base. The problematic distance between Android and TouchWiz came to a head at this year's CES with the announcement of the Samsung Galaxy Note Pro and Tab Pro, both sporting the new Magazine UX. A few days later Google and Samsung had signed a new global patent deal which included a number of restrictions on Samsung's UI layer for Android. So it was with keen interest that I was watching the Galaxy S5 presentation this afternoon to see Samsung's approach to the user interface after that agreement. Samsung Galaxy S5 (image: Samsung press) In Samsung's words, the UI has been "refined to provide a clean and uncluttered look." While the basic navigation is retained from the Galaxy S4, this more open and simple look is far closer to Google's vision of a mobile UI than it is Samsung's. The Galaxy S5 could easily have brought on board components of the Magazine UX to the 5.1 inch HD screen, it could have considered new presentational elements and paradigms that are proving a success on other handsets and mobile platforms, and it could have iterated on the user feedback of TouchWiz to create a newer and faster experience. Instead, Samsung has remained with a grid-based metaphor which forces users to go into an app, return to the home screen, and open another app. That does not sit well with the introduction of always connected peripherals (including the Gear 2 smartwatch and Gear Fit body tracker), a focus on photography, and improved connectivity to share more moments from life as quickly as possible, The Galaxy S5 does its best to stand out in hardware, but the majority of hardware is hidden behind the screen and the UI. Unfortunately Samsung has not been able to bring that same innovation to TouchWiz. As part of the aforementioned patent deal, Samsung agreed to "tone down TouchWiz, refocus on core Android apps over its own customisations, and cancel more radical customisations such as the magazine UX" (Forbes' Gordon Kelly has more on this). The biggest loser in this is surely the Galaxy S5. It's unlikely that we will know the pressure Google placed Samsung under to bias the TouchWiz, and therefore the Galaxy S5, towards a stock Android look but I would have expected the UI on the S5 to have received just as much additional detail and improved functionality as the hardware inside the flagship smartphone has. Instead I see a device that on first glance is a very slightly bigger Galaxy S4 with a new wallpaper. Samsung has been forced to pass over an opportunity to really differentiate their handset in the public's eye through software. While the S5 is likely to sell upwards of 40 million devices over the next twelve months, the smartphone looks almost identical to the S4, more than a passing resemblance to the S3, and will struggle to stand out against a sea of almost identical interfaces on competing Android devices. While the South Korean company has the lion's share of Android sales, the ability to customise the user interface and how their smartphone actually works has been taken away from them. Samsung has found the limit of innovation in Android, Google has spoken, and as a result the Galaxy S5's software is a shadow of what it could have been. | samsung.galaxy.s5.29 |@lemmatized google:7 strangle:1 innovation:3 samsung:18 galaxy:13 touchwiz:7 ui:7 take:2 stage:1 mwc:1 evening:1 introduce:1 next:2 flagship:2 smartphone:4 launch:1 worldwide:1 april:1 south:3 korean:3 company:3 show:1 new:7 hardware:5 barcelona:1 sport:2 biometrics:1 fitness:1 sensor:1 waterproofing:1 along:1 faster:2 processor:1 improve:1 screen:4 compare:1 change:1 user:6 interface:4 even:1 want:1 bring:3 paradigm:2 platform:2 recent:1 agreement:2 force:3 remain:2 closely:1 align:1 stock:2 android:8 spend:1 many:1 year:2 push:1 layer:2 onto:1 million:2 unit:1 sell:2 minimize:1 moment:2 visible:1 customer:1 deliver:1 experience:2 believe:1 suitable:1 base:2 problematic:1 distance:1 come:1 head:1 ce:1 announcement:1 note:1 pro:2 tab:1 magazine:3 ux:3 day:1 later:1 sign:1 global:1 patent:2 deal:2 include:2 number:1 restriction:1 keen:1 interest:1 watch:1 presentation:1 afternoon:1 see:2 approach:1 image:1 press:1 word:1 refine:1 provide:1 clean:1 uncluttered:1 look:4 basic:1 navigation:1 retain:1 open:2 simple:1 far:1 closer:1 vision:1 mobile:2 could:4 easily:1 board:1 component:1 inch:1 hd:1 consider:1 presentational:1 element:1 prove:1 success:1 handset:2 iterate:1 feedback:1 create:1 instead:2 grid:1 metaphor:1 go:1 app:2 return:1 home:1 another:1 sit:1 well:1 introduction:1 always:1 connect:1 peripheral:1 gear:2 smartwatch:1 fit:1 body:1 tracker:1 focus:1 photography:1 improved:2 connectivity:1 share:2 life:1 quickly:1 possible:1 best:1 stand:2 majority:1 hide:1 behind:1 unfortunately:1 able:1 part:1 aforementioned:1 agree:1 tone:1 refocus:1 core:1 apps:1 customisations:2 cancel:1 radical:1 forbes:1 gordon:1 kelly:1 big:2 loser:1 surely:1 unlikely:1 know:1 pressure:1 place:1 bias:1 therefore:1 towards:1 would:1 expect:1 receive:1 much:1 additional:1 detail:1 functionality:1 inside:1 device:3 first:1 glance:1 slightly:1 wallpaper:1 pass:1 opportunity:1 really:1 differentiate:1 public:1 eye:1 software:2 likely:1 upwards:1 twelve:1 month:1 almost:2 identical:2 passing:1 resemblance:1 struggle:1 sea:1 compete:1 lion:1 sale:1 ability:1 customise:1 actually:1 work:1 away:1 find:1 limit:1 speak:1 result:1 shadow:1 |@ngramms samsung_galaxy:5 touchwiz_ui:2 flagship_smartphone:2 faster_processor:1 user_interface:3 recent_agreement:1 force_remain:1 stock_android:2 galaxy_unit:1 user_base:1 google_samsung:1 include_number:1 samsung_remain:1 include_gear:1 gear_fit:1 tone_touchwiz:1 core_android:1 pressure_google:1 big_galaxy:1 android_device:1 android_google:1 galaxy_software:1 |
ParisAttacks2015_(32) | Paris attacks: France mobilises 115,000 security personnel France has mobilised 115,000 security personnel in the wake of Friday's Paris attacks by Islamist militants, Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve has said. Mr Cazeneuve said 128 more raids on suspected militants were carried out. French air strikes also hit Islamic State in Syria overnight. IS has said it carried out the attacks on bars, restaurants, a concert hall and a stadium in which 129 people died. A huge manhunt is under way for one of the suspects, Salah Abdeslam. He is believed to have fled across the border to his native Belgium. Belgian police have released more pictures of the wanted man. Follow the latest live updates Belgium's government has raised its terror threat level because of the failure so far to arrest Abdeslam. Tuesday's football match between the national team and Spain has been cancelled as a result. Mr Cazeneuve said: "We have mobilised 115,000 police, gendarmes and military over the whole of our national territory to insure the protection of French people." The interior minister added that 128 raids on suspected Islamist militants had been carried out overnight on Monday to Tuesday. More than 160 raids were made earlier on Monday, with 23 people arrested and dozens of weapons seized. French media reported that during raids police found a safe house used by the attackers in Bobigny, a suburb of Paris. Abdeslam's brother Brahim, who died in the attacks, is thought to have rented it. A property in another suburb, Alfortville, has also been identified as being used by the attackers, and a car is being investigated, media said. German media reported three arrests near Aachen, on the Belgian border, in an operation linked to the attacks. Meanwhile France has invoked a previously unused clause in the Treaty on European Union obliging other member states to provide it with "aid and assistance by all means in their power". Within minutes, EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini said that all 28 member states had agreed. "Today France asked the European Union for aid and assistance. And today the whole of Europe replied in unison: 'Yes'." she tweeted (in French). The measures came as US Secretary of State John Kerry visited Paris. After meeting French President Francois Hollande, he said everyone understood that after Paris and other recent attacks "we have to step up efforts to hit them at the core" and improve border security. He added that Syria was weeks away from a "big transition" after international talks in Vienna at the weekend. Mr Hollande is due to fly to Washington and Moscow next week for talks with US and Russian leaders. Meanwhile early on Tuesday, French warplanes carried out fresh strikes against the IS stronghold of Raqqa in northern Syria, the army general staff said, destroying a command centre and training centre. The attacks in Paris - which also left more than 400 people wounded, some critically - have galvanised Western countries in their campaign against the so-called Islamic State. UK Chancellor George Osborne said in a speech that IS was trying to develop the ability to launch deadly cyber-attacks on the UK. President Hollande's proposals Extension of state of emergency by three months Changes to the constitution to allow the government to revoke citizenship of any convicted terrorists of dual nationality. Currently only those born outside France and naturalised can lose their citizenship Measures to speed up expulsion of foreign nationals considered a threat to public order Budget increases and extra recruitment to security forces and judiciary During a visit to the GCHQ listening station in Cheltenham, he announced that the UK's investment in fighting cybercrime would double. President Hollande told a rare joint session of the French parliament on Monday that he would table a bill to extend for three months the state of emergency declared after the attacks. Parliament will vote on the measure on Wednesday. According to Prime Minister Manuel Valls, intelligence services have files on 10,500 individuals who have been radicalised to a greater or lesser extent. Suspected Paris attackers Salah Abdeslam, 26 - urgently sought by police Brahim Abdeslam, 31 - named as attacker who died near Bataclan concert hall Omar Ismail Mostefai, 29, from near Paris - died in attack on Bataclan Bilal Hadfi, 20 - named as attacker who died at Stade de France Ahmad al-Mohammad, 25, from Idlib, Syria - died at Stade de France (unverified) Samy Amimour, 28, from near Paris - suicide bomber at Bataclan Two other attackers died during the assaults in the city Who were the attackers? Omar Mostefai's gangster days The Belgian connection As well as the attackers themselves, investigators are also reported to be focusing on a Belgian of Moroccan descent who is described as the possible mastermind of the attacks. Abdelhamid Abaoud, 27, lived in the Molenbeek neighbourhood of Brussels, as did two of the attackers, and is now believed to be based in Syria, where he has risen through the ranks of IS. What is Islamic State? IS is a notoriously violent Islamist group which controls large parts of Syria and Iraq. It has declared its territory a caliphate - a state governed in accordance with Islamic law - under its leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. What does it want? IS demands allegiance from all Muslims, rejects national borders and seeks to expand its territory. It follows its own extreme version of Sunni Islam and regards non-believers as deserving of death. How strong is IS? IS projects a powerful image, partly through propaganda and sheer brutality, and is the world's richest insurgent group. It has about 30,000 fighters but is facing daily bombing by a US-led multi-national coalition, which has vowed to destroy it. | ParisAttacks2015_(32) |@lemmatized paris:9 attack:11 france:7 mobilise:3 security:4 personnel:2 wake:1 friday:1 islamist:3 militant:3 interior:2 minister:3 bernard:1 cazeneuve:3 say:9 mr:3 raid:4 suspected:2 carry:4 french:7 air:1 strike:2 also:4 hit:2 islamic:4 state:9 syria:6 overnight:2 bar:1 restaurant:1 concert:2 hall:2 stadium:1 people:4 die:7 huge:1 manhunt:1 way:1 one:1 suspect:2 salah:2 abdeslam:5 believe:2 flee:1 across:1 border:4 native:1 belgium:2 belgian:4 police:4 release:1 picture:1 wanted:1 man:1 follow:2 late:1 live:2 update:1 government:2 raise:1 terror:1 threat:2 level:1 failure:1 far:1 arrest:3 tuesday:3 football:1 match:1 national:5 team:1 spain:1 cancel:1 result:1 gendarme:1 military:1 whole:2 territory:3 insure:1 protection:1 add:2 monday:3 make:1 earlier:1 dozen:1 weapon:1 seize:1 medium:3 report:3 find:1 safe:1 house:1 use:2 attacker:9 bobigny:1 suburb:2 brother:1 brahim:2 think:1 rent:1 property:1 another:1 alfortville:1 identify:1 car:1 investigate:1 german:1 three:3 near:4 aachen:1 operation:1 link:1 meanwhile:2 invoke:1 previously:1 unused:1 clause:1 treaty:1 european:2 union:2 oblige:1 member:2 provide:1 aid:2 assistance:2 mean:1 power:1 within:1 minute:1 eu:1 foreign:2 policy:1 chief:1 federica:1 mogherini:1 agree:1 today:2 ask:1 europe:1 reply:1 unison:1 yes:1 tweet:1 measure:3 come:1 u:3 secretary:1 john:1 kerry:1 visit:2 meet:1 president:3 francois:1 hollande:4 everyone:1 understood:1 recent:1 step:1 effort:1 core:1 improve:1 week:2 away:1 big:1 transition:1 international:1 talk:2 vienna:1 weekend:1 due:1 fly:1 washington:1 moscow:1 next:1 russian:1 leader:2 early:1 warplane:1 fresh:1 stronghold:1 raqqa:1 northern:1 army:1 general:1 staff:1 destroy:2 command:1 centre:2 training:1 leave:1 wound:1 critically:1 galvanise:1 western:1 country:1 campaign:1 call:1 uk:3 chancellor:1 george:1 osborne:1 speech:1 try:1 develop:1 ability:1 launch:1 deadly:1 cyber:1 proposal:1 extension:1 emergency:2 month:2 change:1 constitution:1 allow:1 revoke:1 citizenship:2 convicted:1 terrorist:1 dual:1 nationality:1 currently:1 bear:1 outside:1 naturalised:1 lose:1 speed:1 expulsion:1 consider:1 public:1 order:1 budget:1 increase:1 extra:1 recruitment:1 force:1 judiciary:1 gchq:1 listen:1 station:1 cheltenham:1 announce:1 investment:1 fight:1 cybercrime:1 would:2 double:1 tell:1 rare:1 joint:1 session:1 parliament:2 table:1 bill:1 extend:1 declare:2 vote:1 wednesday:1 accord:1 prime:1 manuel:1 valls:1 intelligence:1 service:1 file:1 individual:1 radicalised:1 great:1 less:1 extent:1 urgently:1 seek:2 name:2 bataclan:3 omar:2 ismail:1 mostefai:2 bilal:1 hadfi:1 stade:2 de:2 ahmad:1 al:2 mohammad:1 idlib:1 unverified:1 samy:1 amimour:1 suicide:1 bomber:1 two:2 assault:1 city:1 gangster:1 day:1 connection:1 well:1 investigator:1 focus:1 moroccan:1 descent:1 describe:1 possible:1 mastermind:1 abdelhamid:1 abaoud:1 molenbeek:1 neighbourhood:1 brussels:1 base:1 rise:1 rank:1 notoriously:1 violent:1 group:2 control:1 large:1 part:1 iraq:1 caliphate:1 govern:1 accordance:1 law:1 abu:1 bakr:1 baghdadi:1 want:1 demand:1 allegiance:1 muslim:1 reject:1 expand:1 extreme:1 version:1 sunni:1 islam:1 regard:1 non:1 believer:1 deserving:1 death:1 strong:1 project:1 powerful:1 image:1 partly:1 propaganda:1 sheer:1 brutality:1 world:1 richest:1 insurgent:1 fighter:1 face:1 daily:1 bomb:1 lead:1 multi:1 coalition:1 vow:1 |@ngramms paris_attack:2 islamist_militant:1 interior_minister:2 raid_suspected:2 militant_carry:2 air_strike:1 islamic_state:3 carry_attack:1 bar_restaurant:1 concert_hall:1 people_die:1 salah_abdeslam:2 belgian_police:1 follow_late:1 threat_level:1 football_match:1 national_team:1 french_people:1 earlier_monday:1 people_arrest:1 french_medium:1 police_find:1 safe_house:1 suburb_paris:1 abdeslam_brother:1 die_attack:1 medium_report:1 belgian_border:1 link_attack:1 european_union:2 member_state:2 foreign_policy:1 state_john:1 french_president:1 mr_hollande:1 due_fly:1 northern_syria:1 attack_paris:1 leave_people:1 president_hollande:2 state_emergency:2 measure_speed:1 threat_public:1 security_force:1 parliament_monday:1 parliament_vote:1 prime_minister:1 intelligence_service:1 paris_attacker:1 seek_police:1 brahim_abdeslam:1 attacker_die:2 bataclan_concert_hall:1 attack_bataclan:1 ahmad_al:1 suicide_bomber:1 city_attacker:1 omar_mostefai:1 belgian_connection:1 attack_abdelhamid:1 live_molenbeek:1 islamist_group:1 syria_iraq:1 |
michelle.obama.95 | First Lady Michelle Obama When people ask First Lady Michelle Obama to describe herself, she doesn't hesitate to say that first and foremost, she is Malia and Sasha's mom. But before she was a mother — or a wife, lawyer, or public servant — she was Fraser and Marian Robinson's daughter. The Robinsons lived in a brick bungalow on the South Side of Chicago. Fraser was a pump operator for the Chicago Water Department, and despite being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis at a young age, he hardly ever missed a day of work. Marian stayed home to raise Michelle and her older brother Craig, skillfully managing a busy household filled with love, laughter, and important life lessons. A product of Chicago public schools, Michelle Robinson studied sociology and African-American studies at Princeton University. After graduating from Harvard Law School in 1988, she joined the Chicago law firm Sidley & Austin, where she later met Barack Obama, the man who would become the love of her life. After a few years, Mrs. Obama decided her true calling was working with people to serve their communities and their neighbors. She served as assistant commissioner of planning and development in Chicago's City Hall before becoming the founding executive director of the Chicago chapter of Public Allies, an AmeriCorps program that prepares youth for public service. In 1996, Mrs. Obama joined the University of Chicago with a vision of bringing campus and community together. As Associate Dean of Student Services, she developed the university's first community service program, and under her leadership as Vice President of Community and External Affairs for the University of Chicago Medical Center, volunteerism skyrocketed. Mrs. Obama has continued her efforts to support and inspire young people during her time as First Lady. In 2010, she launched Let's Move!, bringing together community leaders, educators, medical professionals, parents, and others in a nationwide effort to address the challenge of childhood obesity. Let's Move! has an ambitious goal: to solve the epidemic of childhood obesity within a generation. Whether it's providing healthier food in our schools, helping kids be more physically active, or urging companies to market healthier foods to our children, Let's Move! is focused on giving parents the support they need to make healthier choices for their kids. In 2011, Mrs. Obama and Dr. Jill Biden came together to launch Joining Forces, a nationwide initiative calling all Americans to rally around service members, veterans, and their families and support them through wellness, education, and employment opportunities. Joining Forces works hand in hand with the public and private sector to ensure that service members, veterans, and their families have the tools they need to succeed throughout their lives. In 2014, Mrs. Obama launched the Reach Higher Initiative, an effort to inspire young people across America to take charge of their future by completing their education past high school, whether at a professional training program, a community college, or a four-year college or university. Reach Higher aims to ensure that all students understand what they need to complete their education by working to expose students to college and career opportunities; helping them understand financial aid eligibility; encouraging academic planning and summer learning opportunities; and supporting high school counselors who do essential work to help students get into college. As First Lady, Mrs. Obama looks forward to continuing her work on the issues close to her heart — supporting military families, helping children lead healthier lives, and encouraging all our young people to fulfill their boundless promise. Michelle and Barack Obama have two daughters: Malia, 16, and Sasha, 13. Like their mother, the girls were born on the South Side of Chicago. | michelle.obama.95 |@lemmatized first:6 lady:4 michelle:5 obama:10 people:5 ask:1 describe:1 hesitate:1 say:1 foremost:1 malia:2 sasha:2 mom:1 mother:2 wife:1 lawyer:1 public:5 servant:1 fraser:2 marian:2 robinson:3 daughter:2 live:1 brick:1 bungalow:1 south:2 side:2 chicago:9 pump:1 operator:1 water:1 department:1 despite:1 diagnose:1 multiple:1 sclerosis:1 young:4 age:1 hardly:1 ever:1 miss:1 day:1 work:6 stay:1 home:1 raise:1 old:1 brother:1 craig:1 skillfully:1 manage:1 busy:1 household:1 fill:1 love:2 laughter:1 important:1 life:4 lesson:1 product:1 school:5 study:2 sociology:1 african:1 american:2 princeton:1 university:5 graduate:1 harvard:1 law:2 join:4 firm:1 sidley:1 austin:1 later:1 meet:1 barack:2 man:1 would:1 become:2 year:2 mr:6 decide:1 true:1 call:2 serve:2 community:6 neighbor:1 assistant:1 commissioner:1 planning:2 development:1 city:1 hall:1 founding:1 executive:1 director:1 chapter:1 ally:1 americorps:1 program:3 prepare:1 youth:1 service:5 vision:1 bring:2 campus:1 together:3 associate:1 dean:1 student:4 develop:1 leadership:1 vice:1 president:1 external:1 affair:1 medical:2 center:1 volunteerism:1 skyrocket:1 continue:2 effort:3 support:5 inspire:2 time:1 launch:3 let:3 move:3 leader:1 educator:1 professional:2 parent:2 others:1 nationwide:2 address:1 challenge:1 childhood:2 obesity:2 ambitious:1 goal:1 solve:1 epidemic:1 within:1 generation:1 whether:2 provide:1 healthy:4 food:2 help:4 kid:2 physically:1 active:1 urge:1 company:1 market:1 child:2 focus:1 give:1 need:3 make:1 choice:1 dr:1 jill:1 biden:1 come:1 force:2 initiative:2 rally:1 around:1 member:2 veteran:2 family:3 wellness:1 education:3 employment:1 opportunity:3 hand:2 private:1 sector:1 ensure:2 tool:1 succeed:1 throughout:1 reach:2 higher:1 across:1 america:1 take:1 charge:1 future:1 complete:2 past:1 high:3 training:1 college:4 four:1 aim:1 understand:2 expose:1 career:1 financial:1 aid:1 eligibility:1 encouraging:1 academic:1 summer:1 learning:1 counselor:1 essential:1 get:1 look:1 forward:1 issue:1 close:1 heart:1 military:1 lead:1 encourage:1 fulfill:1 boundless:1 promise:1 two:1 like:1 girl:1 bear:1 |@ngramms michelle_obama:2 malia_sasha:1 south_side:2 water_department:1 young_age:1 raise_michelle:1 product_chicago:1 public_school:1 michelle_robinson:1 african_american:1 harvard_law:1 law_firm:1 barack_obama:2 mr_obama:6 city_hall:1 executive_director:1 public_ally:1 public_service:1 university_chicago:2 student_service:1 develop_university:1 service_program:1 president_community:1 medical_center:1 young_people:3 healthy_food:2 company_market:1 join_force:2 service_member:2 effort_inspire:1 complete_education:2 high_school:2 continue_work:1 military_family:1 daughter_malia:1 |

michelle.obama.56 | Michelle Obama: Mom First, Political Wife Second Michelle Obama wants you to know she's a mom first, political wife second. So while she's flying to South Carolina to spend four days campaigning for her husband, she'll take a minute to check an e-mail from her 9-year-old daughter Malia's teacher. The e-mail this morning caught her off guard. It said that Malia had been talking about "scary people" and "kidnapping" being one of the things she finds "un-cool" during a class discussion. As it turned out, Obama told a gathering of women in Greenville there was nothing to be concerned about. Little Malia was only joking, she told her panicked mom by phone. "I shouldn't say that in front of the cameras," Michelle Obama said as she quickly glanced at a gaggle of reporters in the back Meet Mrs. Obama Just three days before the South Carolina primary, there is an intense focus on the words of the spouses of the front-runners. Just ask former President Bill Clinton. "Look at all these people! Where did you all come from?" Michelle Obama asked as she entered the ladies lunch in Greenville. She seemed genuinely surprised to be the subject of so much attention. Michelle Obama spoke to the 150 or so women at the Lazy Goat restaurant, shook some hands and posed for photos. She declined to take any questions from reporters and said nothing directly about Hillary Clinton -- or her famous spouse. But she did speak passionately about her life as a working mom and the reasons she thinks she deserves to be first lady. Michelle Obama still holds a part-time position as vice president for community and external affairs at he University of Chicago Hospitals. Last year she scaled back her hours to part-time to make room for helping her husband's campaign. She has said that she carries two BlackBerries while out on the campaign trail -- one for work and the other for the campaign trail. Personal Touch Michelle Obama's speech Wednesday stood in contrast to the typical speech former President Clinton has delivered on the trail. He dwells on the details of policy -- exhaustive explanations of his wife's positions on health care, Iraq, education and other subjects. The Illinois senator's spouse highlights the personal. Obama began with a story she rarely tells in public. She described what it was like deciding whether to go back to work after having her second child, Sasha. "Every minute after I had my first child I questioned my decisions," Obama said as women in the audience nodded along. One day she would love work. The next day she would feel like quitting. She told of interviewing for a new job when Sasha was just 4 months old. She didn't think she wanted the job, so she tried to sabotage the interview by bringing the baby along, nursing Sasha just before the interview and demanding a high salary. She got the job. But she struggled with the balance, she said. She still does, saying she worries about her children every day. "We've been told we can have it all. The truth of the matter is that you can't. You can't have it all at the same time." Obama said her husband gets it. "He's watched my struggle and the pain that I have had as a woman." Obama said her support for her husband "comes straight from my motherhood bones". Generation Next Obama also said the nation is too cynical and afraid, and she worries about the next generation. | michelle.obama.56 |@lemmatized michelle:7 obama:14 mom:4 first:4 political:2 wife:3 second:3 want:2 know:1 fly:1 south:2 carolina:2 spend:1 four:1 day:5 campaign:4 husband:4 take:2 minute:2 check:1 e:2 mail:2 year:2 old:2 daughter:1 malia:3 teacher:1 morning:1 catch:1 guard:1 say:11 talk:1 scary:1 people:2 kidnap:1 one:3 thing:1 find:1 un:1 cool:1 class:1 discussion:1 turn:1 tell:5 gathering:1 woman:4 greenville:2 nothing:2 concern:1 little:1 joking:1 panic:1 phone:1 front:2 camera:1 quickly:1 glance:1 gaggle:1 reporter:2 back:3 meet:1 mr:1 three:1 primary:1 intense:1 focus:1 word:1 spouse:3 runner:1 ask:2 former:2 president:3 bill:1 clinton:3 look:1 come:2 enter:1 lady:2 lunch:1 seem:1 genuinely:1 surprise:1 subject:2 much:1 attention:1 spoke:1 lazy:1 goat:1 restaurant:1 shake:1 hand:1 pose:1 photo:1 decline:1 question:2 directly:1 hillary:1 famous:1 speak:1 passionately:1 life:1 work:4 reason:1 think:2 deserve:1 still:2 hold:1 part:2 time:3 position:2 vice:1 community:1 external:1 affair:1 university:1 chicago:1 hospital:1 last:1 scale:1 hour:1 make:1 room:1 help:1 carry:1 two:1 blackberry:1 trail:3 personal:2 touch:1 speech:2 wednesday:1 stand:1 contrast:1 typical:1 deliver:1 dwell:1 detail:1 policy:1 exhaustive:1 explanation:1 health:1 care:1 iraq:1 education:1 illinois:1 senator:1 highlight:1 begin:1 story:1 rarely:1 public:1 describe:1 like:2 decide:1 whether:1 go:1 child:3 sasha:3 every:2 decision:1 audience:1 nod:1 along:2 would:2 love:1 next:3 feel:1 quit:1 interview:3 new:1 job:3 month:1 try:1 sabotage:1 bring:1 baby:1 nurse:1 demand:1 high:1 salary:1 get:2 struggle:2 balance:1 worry:2 truth:1 matter:1 watch:1 pain:1 support:1 straight:1 motherhood:1 bone:1 generation:2 also:1 nation:1 cynical:1 afraid:1 |@ngramms michelle_obama:7 political_wife:2 fly_south:1 daughter_malia:1 catch_guard:1 front_camera:1 mr_obama:1 bill_clinton:1 shake_hand:1 hillary_clinton:1 part_time:2 president_community:1 university_chicago:1 husband_campaign:1 health_care:1 illinois_senator:1 |
barack.obama.3 | Though Obama Had to Leave to Find Himself, It Is Hawaii That Made His Rise Possible On weekday mornings as a teenager, Barry Obama left his grandparents' apartment on the 10th floor of the 12-story high-rise at 1617 S. Beretania, a mile and a half above Waikiki Beach, and walked up Punahou Street in the shadows of capacious banyan trees and date palms. Before crossing the overpass above the H1 freeway, where traffic zoomed east to body-surfing beaches or west to the airport and Pearl Harbor, he passed Kapiolani Medical Center, walking below the hospital room where he was born on Aug. 4, 1961. Two blocks farther along, at the intersection with Wilder, he could look left toward the small apartment on Poki where he had spent a few years with his little sister, Maya, and his mother, Ann, back when she was getting her master's degree at the University of Hawaii before she left again for Indonesia. Soon enough he was at the lower edge of Punahou School, the gracefully sloping private campus where he studied some and played basketball more. An adolescent life told in five Honolulu blocks, confined and compact, but far, far away. Apart from other unprecedented aspects of his rise, it is a geographical truth that no politician in American history has traveled farther than Barack Obama to be within reach of the White House. He was born and spent most of his formative years on Oahu, in distance the most removed population center on the planet, about 2,390 miles from California, farther from a major landmass than anywhere but Easter Island. In the westward impulse of American settlement, his birthplace was the last frontier, an outpost with its own time zone, the 50th of the United States, admitted to the union only two years before Obama came along. Those who come from islands are inevitably shaped by the experience. For Obama, the experience was all contradiction and contrast. As the son of a white woman and a black man, he grew up as a multiracial kid, a "hapa," "half-and-half" in the local lexicon, in one of the most multiracial places in the world, with no majority group. There were native Hawaiians, Japanese, Filipinos, Samoans, Okinawans, Chinese and Portuguese, along with Anglos, commonly known as haole (pronounced how-lay), and a smaller population of blacks, traditionally centered at the U.S. military installations. But diversity does not automatically translate to social comfort: Hawaii has its own difficult history of racial and cultural stratification, and young Obama struggled to find his place even in that many-hued milieu. He had to leave the island to find himself as a black man, eventually rooting in Chicago, the antipode of remote Honolulu, deep in the fold of the mainland, and there setting out on the path that led toward politics. Yet life circles back in strange ways, and in essence it is the promise of the place he left behind -- the notion if not the reality of Hawaii, what some call the spirit of aloha, the transracial if not post-racial message -- that has made his rise possible. Hawaii and Chicago are the two main threads weaving through the cloth of Barack Obama's life. Each involves more than geography. Hawaii is about the forces that shaped him, and Chicago is about how he reshaped himself. Chicago is about the critical choices he made as an adult: how he learned to survive in the rough-and-tumble of law and politics, how he figured out the secrets of power in a world defined by it, and how he resolved his inner conflicts and refined the subtle, coolly ambitious persona now on view in the presidential election. Hawaii comes first. It is what lies beneath, what makes Chicago possible and understandable. Hawaii involves the struggles of a teenage hapa at Punahou School who wanted nothing more than to be a professional basketball player. It is about his extraordinary mother, Stanley Ann Dunham, deeply loving if frequently absent. While politicians burnish their histories by laying claim to early years of community work and lives of public service, she was the real deal, devoting her career, unsung and underpaid, to helping poor women make their way in the modern world. It is about his mysterious father, Barack Hussein Obama, an imperious if alluring voice gone distant and then missing. It is about his grandparents, Madelyn and Stan Dunham, Toot and Gramps, the white couple with whom he lived for most of his teenage years, she practical and determined, he impulsive, hokey, well-intentioned and, by his grandson's account, burdened with the desperate lost hopes of a Willy Loman-style salesman. It is about their family's incessant migration away from the heartland, from the Great Plains to the West Coast to Hawaii. And that was not far enough for their daughter, who followed the Pacific farther to Indonesia and traveled the world until, at the too-early age of 52, she made her way back to Honolulu, taking an apartment next to her parents' in the high-rise on the corner of Beretania and Punahou, to die there of cancer. It was the same year, 1995, that her son made his debut on the national stage with a book about himself that searched for the missing, the void -- his dad, Kenya, Africa -- and paid less attention to the people and things that had shaped his life, especially his mother. The simple fact is that he would not exist as a human being, let alone as a politician, without his mother's sensibility, naive or adventurous or both. Of all the relationships in Obama's life, none has been deeper, more complex or more important. They lived under the same roof for only perhaps 12 years and were frequently apart during his adolescence, but her lessons and judgments were always with him. In some sense, because they were just 18 years apart, they grew up together, each following a singular path toward maturity. Like many presidential aspirants before him, and perhaps most like Bill Clinton, Obama grew up surrounded by strong women, the male figures either weak or absent. Once, during the heat of the primary race between Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton, a claim came from Bill Clinton that he "understood" Obama. As different as their backgrounds and families were, it was no doubt this strong-female, weak-male similarity that he had in mind. | barack.obama.3 |@lemmatized though:1 obama:12 leave:5 find:3 hawaii:9 make:7 rise:5 possible:3 weekday:1 morning:1 teenager:1 barry:1 grandparent:2 apartment:3 floor:1 story:1 high:2 beretania:2 mile:2 half:3 waikiki:1 beach:2 walk:2 punahou:4 street:1 shadow:1 capacious:1 banyan:1 tree:1 date:1 palm:1 cross:1 overpass:1 freeway:1 traffic:1 zoom:1 east:1 body:1 surf:1 west:2 airport:1 pearl:1 harbor:1 pass:1 kapiolani:1 medical:1 center:3 hospital:1 room:1 bear:2 aug:1 two:3 block:2 far:6 along:3 intersection:1 wilder:1 could:1 look:1 left:1 toward:3 small:2 poki:1 spend:2 year:8 little:1 sister:1 maya:1 mother:4 ann:2 back:3 get:1 master:1 degree:1 university:1 indonesia:2 soon:1 enough:2 low:1 edge:1 school:2 gracefully:1 sloping:1 private:1 campus:1 study:1 play:1 basketball:2 adolescent:1 life:6 tell:1 five:1 honolulu:3 confine:1 compact:1 away:2 apart:3 unprecedented:1 aspect:1 geographical:1 truth:1 politician:3 american:2 history:3 travel:2 barack:3 within:1 reach:1 white:3 house:1 formative:1 oahu:1 distance:1 removed:1 population:2 planet:1 california:1 major:1 landmass:1 anywhere:1 easter:1 island:3 westward:1 impulse:1 settlement:1 birthplace:1 last:1 frontier:1 outpost:1 time:1 zone:1 united:1 state:1 admit:1 union:1 come:4 inevitably:1 shape:3 experience:2 contradiction:1 contrast:1 son:2 woman:3 black:3 man:2 grow:3 multiracial:2 kid:1 hapa:2 local:1 lexicon:1 one:1 place:3 world:4 majority:1 group:1 native:1 hawaiian:1 japanese:1 filipinos:1 samoan:1 okinawans:1 chinese:1 portuguese:1 anglos:1 commonly:1 know:1 haole:1 pronounced:1 lay:2 traditionally:1 u:1 military:1 installation:1 diversity:1 automatically:1 translate:1 social:1 comfort:1 difficult:1 racial:2 cultural:1 stratification:1 young:1 struggle:2 even:1 many:2 hue:1 milieu:1 eventually:1 root:1 chicago:5 antipode:1 remote:1 deep:2 fold:1 mainland:1 set:1 path:2 lead:1 politics:2 yet:1 circle:1 strange:1 way:3 essence:1 promise:1 behind:1 notion:1 reality:1 call:1 spirit:1 aloha:1 transracial:1 post:1 message:1 main:1 thread:1 weave:1 cloth:1 involve:2 geography:1 force:1 reshape:1 critical:1 choice:1 adult:1 learn:1 survive:1 rough:1 tumble:1 law:1 figure:2 secret:1 power:1 define:1 resolve:1 inner:1 conflict:1 refine:1 subtle:1 coolly:1 ambitious:1 persona:1 view:1 presidential:2 election:1 first:1 lie:1 beneath:1 understandable:1 teenage:2 want:1 nothing:1 professional:1 player:1 extraordinary:1 stanley:1 dunham:2 deeply:1 love:1 frequently:2 absent:2 burnish:1 claim:2 early:2 community:1 work:1 public:1 service:1 real:1 deal:1 devote:1 career:1 unsung:1 underpaid:1 help:1 poor:1 modern:1 mysterious:1 father:1 hussein:1 imperious:1 alluring:1 voice:1 go:1 distant:1 miss:1 madelyn:1 stan:1 toot:1 gramps:1 couple:1 live:2 practical:1 determine:1 impulsive:1 hokey:1 well:1 intentioned:1 grandson:1 account:1 burden:1 desperate:1 lose:1 hope:1 willy:1 loman:1 style:1 salesman:1 family:2 incessant:1 migration:1 heartland:1 great:1 plain:1 coast:1 daughter:1 follow:2 pacific:1 farther:1 age:1 take:1 next:1 parent:1 corner:1 die:1 cancer:1 debut:1 national:1 stage:1 book:1 search:1 missing:1 void:1 dad:1 kenya:1 africa:1 pay:1 less:1 attention:1 people:1 thing:1 especially:1 simple:1 fact:1 would:1 exist:1 human:1 let:1 alone:1 without:1 sensibility:1 naive:1 adventurous:1 relationship:1 none:1 complex:1 important:1 roof:1 perhaps:2 adolescence:1 lesson:1 judgment:1 always:1 sense:1 together:1 singular:1 maturity:1 like:2 aspirant:1 bill:2 clinton:3 surround:1 strong:2 male:2 either:1 weak:2 heat:1 primary:1 race:1 hillary:1 rodham:1 understood:1 different:1 background:1 doubt:1 female:1 similarity:1 mind:1 |@ngramms obama_leave:2 high_rise:2 medical_center:1 american_history:1 barack_obama:2 white_house:1 united_state:1 white_woman:1 black_man:2 struggle_find:1 root_chicago:1 choice_make:1 public_service:1 real_deal:1 west_coast:1 make_debut:1 national_stage:1 relationship_obama:1 bill_clinton:2 obama_grow:1 strong_woman:1 obama_hillary:1 clinton_claim:1 doubt_strong:1 |
samsung.galaxy.s5.38 | Samsung Galaxy S5 Active (AT&T) By Eugene Kim Last year's Galaxy S4$199.88 at Amazon and S4 Active seemed like a natural pairing, but with water-resistance now a standard feature on the Galaxy S5Free at Amazon, you might be wondering why Samsung even bothered with an Active variant this year. The big difference, really, is as much form as function: The S5 Active carries a heartier MIL-spec 810G rating, meaning it can take on more physical abuse. But it also just looks and feels like a nicer device to me, even though it's the same price as the standard GS5. This, of course, is a matter of personal preference, but the two are so close in size that taste really should be the deciding factor. Both GS5s are excellent smartphones—choose the one that fits your needs. Design and Activity Zone Nearly every feature from the standard GS5 makes its way to the Active. The display, processor, cameras, wireless radios, and software are all identical between the two, so head over to the original review for an in-depth look at those features. We'll focus on the design changes and additional or missing features here. The S5 Active takes on a more rugged look than last year's device with more pronounced, reinforced corners. Smaller details like etched-in grips and faux-rivets, combined with the camouflage green finish of our review unit, give the S5 Active a decidedly tactical feel. At 5.72 by 2.89 by 0.35 inches (HWD), the Active is shorter than the regular S5 and a hair wider and thicker, but it's also far more compact than the regular S5 with a rugged case slapped on top. It's also nearly a full ounce heavier at 6 ounces, but the added density inspires more confidence in its durability over the long run. The gaudy faux-chrome accents and dimpled back cover are gone, neither of which I particularly liked on the regular S5. I much prefer the matte plastics and tactile accents on the Active. AT&T offers the active in the aforementioned camo green and in more neutral gray or red colorways. View all 6 photos in gallery With IP67 waterproofing and a MIL-spec 810G rating, the S5 Active should be as durable as it looks. The military specification means the S5 Active has been tested against dust, shock, vibration, extreme temperatures, humidity, and high-altitude. The most meaningful durability claim is its shock resistance—Samsung claims that the S5 Active can hold up to drops from up to 4 feet onto a flat surface. I subjected the S5 Active to a round of drops and throws inside our labs, ranging from 3 to 5 feet, onto a relatively hard surface. The back cover popped open a bit after some serious abuse, but the phone never looked worse for wear and functioned perfectly afterwards. The micro USB port still has that pesky flap, but I found it easier to open thanks to the notch facing forward instead of to the side. The back still peels off to reveal the SIM and microSD card slots as well as the removable 2,800mAh battery, which is the same size as the one in the standard GS5. Battery life approached 20 hours of continuous talk time in our tests, and the Ultra Power Saving Mode is still here, offering up to 4 hours of intermittent use out of the last 2 percent of battery. I'm partial to on-screen navigation buttons, but the physical Recent Apps, Home, and Back buttons on the S5 Active have their appeal. They feel well-seated and have a satisfyingly clicky feedback, and I was never a fan of Samsung's combination of capacitive and physical buttons on the standard GS5 to begin with. The Power button is on the right edge, while the Volume buttons are joined by a new "Active key" on the left edge. inline By default, the Active key launches Samsung's Activity Zone, a new app that puts barometric measurements and GPS coordinates front and center, with easy access to flashlight and stopwatch apps—you know, things active people might be interested in. Luckily, Samsung allows you to re-program the key to launch any two apps installed on your device, using either a short or long press. I love this feature; it's like the Kickstarter-backed Pressy button, except it's real, and it works without occupying your headphone jack. It's especially useful for underwater photography, since the touch screen doesn't work when wet. The heart-rate monitor is still here, but the fingerprint scanner didn't make the cut. That's fine as far as I'm concerned, since the swiping motion was always a bit awkward and inconvenient whenever I used it on the regular GS5. The earpiece and back-ported speaker are, as far as I can tell, identical between the GS5 and Active, and call quality is indistinguishable between the two. There's a more robust lip around the camera lens, but image quality is also identical. Our 16GB model came with 10.91GB available to users out of the box. There's still a good deal of bloatware here courtesy of AT&T and Samsung. These include redundant services like AT&T Locker and Navigator, as well as Samsung media and app portals. Yellow Pages, Beats Music, and Lookout Security are also preinstalled, and none of these are removable. There's no more bloatware here than on the normal GS5, at least. Conclusions The Galaxy S5 Active makes no real compromises to earn its more adventurous designation. I don't care for fingerprint scanners, and I think the Active key will be genuinely more useful for the majority of people. Otherwise, it offers the exact same experience as the standard GS5. I personally prefer the S5 Active's design, and the added weight makes it feel like a more premium device in my hands. Either would make a fine choice, but if you're a klutz or adrenaline junkie, the Active should jump to the top of your list. It shares our Editors' Choice award with its otherwise identical, non-Active sibling on AT&T. | samsung.galaxy.s5.38 |@lemmatized samsung:8 galaxy:4 active:24 eugene:1 kim:1 last:3 year:3 amazon:2 seem:1 like:7 natural:1 pairing:1 water:1 resistance:2 standard:6 feature:5 might:2 wonder:1 even:2 bother:1 variant:1 big:1 difference:1 really:2 much:2 form:1 function:2 carry:1 heartier:1 mil:2 spec:2 rating:2 mean:2 take:2 physical:3 abuse:2 also:5 look:5 feel:4 nice:1 device:4 though:1 price:1 course:1 matter:1 personal:1 preference:1 two:4 close:1 size:2 taste:1 deciding:1 factor:1 excellent:1 smartphones:1 choose:1 one:2 fit:1 need:1 design:3 activity:2 zone:2 nearly:2 every:1 make:5 way:1 display:1 processor:1 camera:2 wireless:1 radio:1 software:1 identical:4 head:1 original:1 review:2 depth:1 focus:1 change:1 additional:1 miss:1 rugged:2 pronounced:1 reinforced:1 corner:1 small:1 detail:1 etch:1 grip:1 faux:2 rivet:1 combine:1 camouflage:1 green:2 finish:1 unit:1 give:1 decidedly:1 tactical:1 inch:1 hwd:1 short:2 regular:4 hair:1 wider:1 thicker:1 far:3 compact:1 case:1 slap:1 top:2 full:1 ounce:2 heavier:1 added:2 density:1 inspire:1 confidence:1 durability:2 long:2 run:1 gaudy:1 chrome:1 accent:2 dimple:1 back:6 cover:2 go:1 neither:1 particularly:1 prefer:2 matte:1 plastic:1 tactile:1 offer:3 aforementioned:1 camo:1 neutral:1 gray:1 red:1 colorways:1 view:1 photo:1 gallery:1 waterproofing:1 durable:1 military:1 specification:1 test:2 dust:1 shock:2 vibration:1 extreme:1 temperature:1 humidity:1 high:1 altitude:1 meaningful:1 claim:2 hold:1 drop:2 foot:2 onto:2 flat:1 surface:2 subject:1 round:1 throw:1 inside:1 lab:1 range:1 relatively:1 hard:1 pop:1 open:2 bit:2 serious:1 phone:1 never:2 bad:1 wear:1 perfectly:1 afterwards:1 micro:1 usb:1 port:2 still:5 pesky:1 flap:1 find:1 easy:2 thanks:1 notch:1 face:1 forward:1 instead:1 side:1 peel:1 reveal:1 sim:1 microsd:1 card:1 slot:1 well:3 removable:2 battery:3 life:1 approach:1 hour:2 continuous:1 talk:1 time:1 ultra:1 power:2 save:1 mode:1 intermittent:1 use:3 percent:1 partial:1 screen:2 navigation:1 button:6 recent:1 apps:3 home:1 appeal:1 seat:1 satisfyingly:1 clicky:1 feedback:1 fan:1 combination:1 capacitive:1 begin:1 right:1 edge:2 volume:1 join:1 new:2 key:4 left:1 inline:1 default:1 launch:2 app:2 put:1 barometric:1 measurement:1 gps:1 coordinate:1 front:1 center:1 access:1 flashlight:1 stopwatch:1 know:1 thing:1 people:2 interested:1 luckily:1 allow:1 program:1 instal:1 either:2 press:1 love:1 kickstarter:1 pressy:1 except:1 real:2 work:2 without:1 occupy:1 headphone:1 jack:1 especially:1 useful:2 underwater:1 photography:1 since:2 touch:1 wet:1 heart:1 rate:1 monitor:1 fingerprint:2 scanner:2 cut:1 fine:2 concern:1 swipe:1 motion:1 always:1 awkward:1 inconvenient:1 whenever:1 earpiece:1 speaker:1 tell:1 call:1 quality:2 indistinguishable:1 robust:1 lip:1 around:1 lens:1 image:1 model:1 come:1 available:1 user:1 box:1 good:1 deal:1 bloatware:2 courtesy:1 include:1 redundant:1 service:1 locker:1 navigator:1 medium:1 portal:1 yellow:1 page:1 beat:1 music:1 lookout:1 security:1 preinstalled:1 none:1 normal:1 least:1 conclusion:1 compromise:1 earn:1 adventurous:1 designation:1 care:1 think:1 genuinely:1 majority:1 otherwise:2 exact:1 experience:1 personally:1 weight:1 premium:1 hand:1 would:1 choice:2 klutz:1 adrenaline:1 junkie:1 jump:1 list:1 share:1 editor:1 award:1 non:1 sibling:1 |@ngramms samsung_galaxy:1 feature_galaxy:1 matter_personal:1 activity_zone:2 miss_feature:1 review_unit:1 long_run:1 photo_gallery:1 samsung_claim:1 usb_port:1 find_easy:1 microsd_card:1 removable_battery:1 battery_life:1 time_test:1 ultra_power:1 save_mode:1 percent_battery:1 recent_apps:1 physical_button:1 power_button:1 active_key:3 left_edge:1 launch_samsung:1 easy_access:1 key_launch:1 real_work:1 heart_rate_monitor:1 fingerprint_scanner:2 call_quality:1 camera_lens:1 image_quality:1 good_deal:1 samsung_include:1 galaxy_active:1 make_real:1 majority_people:1 device_hand:1 |
malaysia.airlines.flight.86 | Flight 370 search area shifts after 'credible lead' Aircraft search new area for missing plane 04:26 Search teams shifted to a different part of the Indian Ocean Friday in their hunt for the missing Malaysia Airlines plane after "a new credible lead," authorities said. An analysis of radar data led investigators to move the search to an area 1,100 kilometers (680 miles) to the northeast, the Australian Maritime Safety Authority said, calling the new information "the most credible lead to where debris may be located." "It indicated that the aircraft was traveling faster than previously estimated, resulting in increased fuel usage and reducing the possible distance the aircraft traveled south into the Indian Ocean," the authority said in a statement. Four search aircraft are now over the new area, with six more due to fly there over the course of Friday, said John Young, the authority's general manager of emergency response. The renewed search for Flight 370 in the southern Indian Ocean comes a day after Japan and Thailand both said they'd sent new satellite images to Malaysia showing separate debris fields that could be related to the plane, which vanished March 8 with 239 people aboard. Relatives of passengers from Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 console each other outside the Malaysia Airlines office in Subang, Malaysia, on Thursday, February 12. Protesters demanded that the airline withdraw the statement made in January that all the passengers aboard the plane are dead. The plane, which disappeared on March 8, <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2014/03/07/asia/gallery/malaysia-airliner/index.html" target="_blank">has not been found.</a> The search for Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 48 photos Satellite images show possible debris Satellite images show possible debris 01:31 See satellite images of objects in ocean See satellite images of objects in ocean 02:15 Analysts said the search area shift could be a sign that investigators are closing in on the missing plane's whereabouts. "With this development, perhaps they're able to hone in on the more accurate altitude," said Mary Schiavo, a CNN aviation analyst and former inspector general for the U.S. Department of Transportation. That, experts said, could bring investigators closer to determining what happened aboard the plane, what caused it to veer off course and where it ended up. Satellite images raise hope In addition to the Japanese and Thai satellite images, Malaysian officials announced Wednesday that a French satellite had found 122 pieces of something floating nearby. It's enough to make you wonder: Have they found that proverbial haystack inside which they'll find the well-hidden wreckage? Maybe. Maybe not. Search teams will have at least one more plane in their fleet starting Friday, when a second U.S. Navy P-8 Poseidon will fly from Okinawa, Japan, to Perth, Australia, to join the hunt for the missing aircraft. "From the pilot and the aircrew perspective, they are optimistic," said Cmdr. William Marks of the U.S. 7th Fleet. "I know every day, when they launch a flight, they have a good feeling about finding something. But the satellite imagery hasn't been conclusive." There's one thing that Marks said would be a defining moment in the search: visual confirmation from the search crews at sea. While analysts say it's intriguing that the finds all appear to be in the same general area, searchers have yet to lay eyes on any of the objects, much less haul one aboard a ship and examine it. Satellite images that have been followed up on have not produced any sightings for search teams, said Young of the Australian maritime authority. "That may change in the future," he added. 'Eventually something will come to light' 'Eventually something will come to light' 03:22 How Inmarsat found MH370's path How Inmarsat found MH370's path 05:58 Wife grieves for husband missing on MH370 Wife grieves for husband missing on MH370 01:52 The Australian Geospatial-Intelligence Organisation is directing satellites to capture images of the new area, authorities said. Stephen Wood, a former CIA analyst and satellite imagery expert, said the satellites could be seeing something as simple as whitecaps, which he said can look deceptively like solid objects. CNN aviation analyst Jeff Wise said that while the latest find is "very enticing," the number and size of the objects make him question whether they could be from the plane. "If you see something floating that's 60 feet across, that could be a big chunk of fuselage," he said. "But if you have 10 pieces that are 60 feet across, that would indicate that they're not from the plane, because the plane has only so much stuff in it." But Miles O'Brien, another CNN aviation analyst, said what he sees on the latest satellite images doesn't look like everyday garbage to him. "What I see there is something that seems to be somewhat metallic and shiny. Looks like airplane wreckage to me. I also see some surfaces that look like they're aerodynamic." Geoffrey Thomas, an aviation expert and editor-in-chief of AirlineRatings.com, said he doesn't have any doubts about the satellite images. "The debris pictures we're getting now, they absolutely have to be wreckage from this airplane," he told CNN's "Piers Morgan Live." "They're too big, there's too many of them. And certainly, we get debris in the ocean, unfortunately, but not of this scale, not of this size." Authorities, he said, must know more than they're letting on. "I think they know exactly that this is the airplane," he said. "And hopefully, in a few days, we're going to get someone picking a piece up out of the water and saying, 'This is it.'" Loved ones holding out hope With no physical evidence pointing to what happened to the plane, loved ones of the passengers onboard have said they're still holding out hope. Sarah Bajc, the partner of American passenger Philip Wood, said she's not convinced by the authorities' argument that an analysis of satellite data shows that there were no survivors. Source: Flight 370 turned, dropped Source: Flight 370 turned, dropped 02:22 Flight 370 relative: This is a cover-up Flight 370 relative: This is a cover-up 01:01 Families told all lives are lost Families told all lives are lost 02:51 The plane, she told CNN's "Erin Burnett Out Front," could have landed somewhere. "I do believe it's still a possibility, because there's no contradictory evidence to that being a possibility. Even the satellite data that's been pushed forward to show or to demonstrate that the flight took the southerly route, they're really just still guessing," she said. "I mean, this is not something that anybody has ever done before. So, you know, as brilliant as those mathematicians are, they don't really know. They're only analyzing the data that they have. They don't really know for certain." The confusion has left many family members of missing passengers and crew increasingly frustrated. Some have accused Malaysian authorities of failing to keep them properly informed. Others have accused officials of lying or covering up facts. Bajc said she first learned that authorities believed there were no survivors from a text message Malaysia Airlines sent to passengers' families. "The wording of the message led me to believe that they were going to be giving evidence that it was found, right? That there were bodies ... and then all he did is say they've extrapolated the data and they're sure that it went into the water. I mean, I think that was extremely irresponsible." 'Unspeakable challenge' for families Mystery surfaces pain of 1977 tragedy Concerns about weather, currents Malaysian officials have defended their handling of the situation, arguing that they've released information as soon as possible to families and the public. In recent days, authorities' announcements have focused on the satellite images. Now the search is on for the physical evidence to back them up. The Thai images show about 300 objects ranging in size from 6 feet (2 meters) to 50 feet (15 meters). When photographed Monday, they were about 125 miles (201 kilometers) away from the spot where a French satellite captured a floating group of objects Sunday. The Japanese images were taken Wednesday and show about 10 objects floating in a six-mile (10 kilometer) radius some 1,550 miles (2,500 kilometers) off the west coast of Australia, according to the Japanese Cabinet Intelligence and Research Office. The biggest object was square and measured some 13 feet by 26 feet (4 meters to 8 meters), the agency said. The finds come after news Wednesday that a French satellite had seen 122 objects in the same region and follows earlier sightings by U.S., Chinese and another French satellite. Planes are set to try to find the materials and figure out what they are on Friday after rough weather in the remote spot once again delayed search efforts Thursday. By then, experts say, these objects could have drifted hundreds of miles in the complex currents of the Indian Ocean. 'I understand him' Meanwhile, the youngest son of missing Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 pilot Zaharie Ahmad Shah has broken his family's silence on the plane's disappearance, rejecting speculation that the longtime aviator was somehow responsible. "I've read everything online. But I've ignored all the speculation. I know my father better," Ahmad Seth Zaharie, 26, said in an interview published Thursday by the New Straits Times, an English-language Malaysian newspaper. The idea that Zaharie or co-pilot Fariq Abdul Hamid were responsible for the plane's baffling disappearance is one of many theories investigators continue to pursue. One line of speculation suggests Zaharie might have hijacked the plane as a political act. He has been identified as a supporter of a high-profile Malaysian opposition figure. His son rejected such theories. "We may not be as close, as he travels so much. But I understand him," he said of his father in the interview, which was conducted Tuesday. Comments from government officials on the investigation so far support the son's view. A senior Malaysian government official Wednesday told CNN law enforcement analyst Tom Fuentes that authorities have found nothing in 19 days of investigating the two pilots that leads them to any motive, be it political, suicidal or extremist. And an ongoing FBI review of the two pilots' hard drives, including one in a flight simulator Zaharie had built at his home, has not turned up a "smoking gun," a U.S. official with knowledge of the investigation told CNN. "They have accessed the data," the official said. "There is nothing that's jumping out and grabbing us right now." And investigators haven't found anything suspicious with any of the other crew members or passengers, leaving them struggling to find an explanation. "I don't think there is a prevailing theory," one U.S. official told CNN. "There are counterarguments to every theory right now." | malaysia.airlines.flight.86 |@lemmatized flight:12 search:14 area:7 shift:3 credible:3 lead:6 aircraft:5 new:7 miss:8 plane:17 team:3

ParisAttacks2015_(29) | Paris attacks were carried out by three groups tied to Islamic State, official says PARIS — French police took seven people in for questioning Sunday in connection with the deadly siege that killed at least 129 people on Friday night, expanding an international dragnet and investigation that is now spanning from the Aegean Sea to the teeming Paris suburbs. The seven people taken into custody were relatives of Omar Ismail Mostefai, a 29-year old French national with a criminal record and one of seven assailants who died during Friday night's deadly siege, according to a French police official who spoke on the condition of anonymity. A petty criminal of Algerian descent, Mostefai was picked up for eight minor offenses including driving without a license between 2004 and 2010. In 2010, however, Mostefai came on the radar screen of French intelligence because of his associations with radical Islamists at a mosque near Chartres, a city 56 miles west of Paris. 'The aim is to figure out what led this man to become a suicide bomber," the French police official said. Mostefai's brother, a 34 year-old unnamed man who surrendered for questioning in a southeastern suburb of Paris, confirmed to the AFP news service that his younger sibling had committed small crimes in the past. He said he had broken off all ties with him years ago. Mostefai, he added, had moved back to Algeria with his young daughter. He said he was shocked to learn that his brother was involved in the attacks. Police also raided the homes of Mostafai's father and of the brother, which were searched during three hours Saturday night by French SWAT teams in Romilly-sur-Seine, a town 79 miles East of Paris, and in Bandoufle, a small suburb in the South of Paris, according to RTL radio. "What does this have to do with us?" the brother's wife told AFP in tears. "We haven't spoken to him in years. I hope we'll be left alone. We have a quiet little life, and this is starting to worry me." The official said another one of the assailants had a Syrian passport, a document that Greek officials have said he used to enter Europe in October on the Aegean island of Leros along with a record flood of refugees fleeing the war-torn Middle East. Investigators were still looking into whether a second assailant may have also entered Europe on the refugee route. It immediately raised the prospect that militants may be using the same porous routes into Europe as migrants. French police additionally seized one of the vehicles believed to have been used in the Friday night attacks, a black Seat Leon with handguns inside, in the eastern suburb of Montreuil. Officials sealed off the area with red and white tape as white-clad forensic experts combed the vehicle. At least two of the seven dead attackers are believed to be Belgians including an 18-year-old who had fought in Syria, according to a senior Belgian official. On Saturday, President François Hollande called the attacks an "act of war" by the Islamic State, which issued an extraordinarily detailed claim of responsibility almost immediately after his address to the nation. Left behind after the attacks were the latest scars, Pope Francis said Saturday, from the "piecemeal Third World War." One survivor described gunmen coldly picking off hostages in a packed concert hall as if "we were birds." [In Paris, a soccer game, an Asian dinner, a concert — and then terror] The attacks — far more sophisticated and more deadly in magnitude than a siege here in January carried out by three Islamist militants — robbed France's showcase city of its rhythm of life and put Europe on alert to a new level of terrorism. In the aftermath of the most deadly assault on French soil since World War II, the Eiffel Tower was shut down "indefinitely." The Louvre closed its doors. And the country, which cherishes secular freedoms, outlawed public gatherings until at least Thursday. France declared a state of emergency — granting police broader powers — for the first time since 2005 riots on the outskirts of Paris. Paris landmarks became ghost towns. The government deployed 1,500 troops to safeguard key buildings. Schools, libraries, food markets, swimming pools and gymnasiums were closed. About 99 of at least 352 who were wounded — most of them injured during a hail of bullets that hit the front rows of a concert at the Bataclan, where 1,500 fans were listening to the Eagles of Death Metal — remained in serious condition, suggesting that the death toll could increase. The extent of the violence signaled that the Islamic State is extending its reach far beyond the battlefields of the Middle East, prompting much of the rest of Europe to bolster security on Saturday, ramping up border checks and patrols at key buildings and transit points. But intelligence officials in Germany and Spain said they were focusing mainly on improving security at French schools and embassies, suggesting how France — a nation more involved in fighting Islamist extremism abroad than any of its neighbors — has emerged as the epicenter of the region's terrorism threat. [Coordinated assault seems to mark new chapter in terrorism] "We are facing an act of war organized by an army of terrorist jihadists that had already organized and planned attacks in the past," French Prime Minister Manuel Valls said Saturday evening. "Five attacks have been thwarted since this summer. But we have always said that there is no such thing as zero risk. We have always said that France could face new terrorist attacks." Suspects arrested On Saturday, candles and flowers filled an outdoor terrace at La Belle Equipe restaurant, where gunman shot into the crowd. Notes in the flowers included one that read, in French, "To our friend Guillaume full of joy and kindness, may God keep you close to him." Another read: "Thoughts for our little Tess and to the children of Lacri. Their parents are in the stars." The victims at six attack sites — the Bataclan concert venue, a soccer stadium, and bawdy bars and restaurants in east Paris — included Nohemi Gonzalez, 23, a California State University design student spending her junior year abroad. And Bertrand Navarret, 37, a rock music fan from southern France who was among the first to die as the gunmen fired into the crowd at the concert. And two Tunisian sisters celebrating a friend's birthday on a night out. Many Parisians — as they did after the attacks in January — vowed to hold firm. But some also questioned the wisdom of France's involvement in the Middle East. I'm indignant about the foreign policy of France," Yannis Hassany, 25, a Parisian student of Syrian and Lebanese descent, said Saturday. He was standing near the bloodstained streets of two of the attack sites, Le Carillon bar and Le Petit Cambodge restaurant. "What we've done the last four years is responsible for what happened here. France is implicated. France never should have gotten involved in Syria." As of late Saturday, at least 10 suspects were arrested in Belgium. During the attacks Friday, six suspects blew themselves up and a seventh was killed by police. The Islamic State, however, claimed that eight men were directly involved in the attacks. Playing dead The siege began at 9:20 p.m. local time Friday and lasted until police stormed the concert hall at 12:20 a.m. The three teams of suicide bombers had spread out across Paris, with two of the groups racing through the city's streets in a small black SEAT León hatchback and a black Volkswagen Polo. They deployed "war-type weapons": Kalashnikov rifles and explosive belts with identical triggers, said François Molins, a prosecutor in Paris. The style of weapons indicates that the assailants "wanted to claim as many victims as possible," he said. Louis H., a 26-year-old employee at the Bataclan who asked that only his first name and initial be used, said he was attending the concert with his mother. He said the two of them pretended to be dead, lying on the floor for 10 minutes as they heard shots and yelling. Officials said at least one suspect was a 29-year-old who was eight days shy of his birthday and whom two French media outlets identified as Ismaël Omar Mostefaï. He was the father of a 5-year-old girl and was repeatedly arrested in connection with petty crimes between 2010 and 2015. Le Monde newspaper reported Saturday that Mostefaï was suspected of having traveled to Syria for a few months in the winter of 2013 and 2014. Officials, however, declined to release the names of any suspects. At one of the attack sites — the stadium where Hollande was attending a soccer match between France and Germany — officials discovered the passport of a man born in Idlib, Syria, who had entered Europe via Greece as a refugee. Officials have not conclusively connected the document to one of the two men who blew themselves up at the stadium. But the possible link was enough to ignite fresh calls by some in Europe to end the unprecedented flow of refugees pouring into Europe from war zones in the Middle East. "The attacks mean the necessity of an even deeper revision of the European policy toward the migrant crisis," Konrad Szymanski, Poland's new European affairs minister, told a local radio station. French officials recovered fingerprints from at least four of the men, with French, German and other European law enforcement agencies seeking possible matches. As if in response to the tough declarations from Hollande on Saturday, the Islamic State moments later asserted responsibility for the attacks. The claim — issued on its internal social media site — said the terrorist group had "precisely chosen targets in the center of the capital of France" and specifically mentioned Hollande's appearance at the soccer match. "Let France and all nations following its path know that they will continue to be at the top of the target list of the Islamic State," it said. | ParisAttacks2015_(29) |@lemmatized paris:13 attack:17

premier.league.143 | Blues wrap up Torres deal Chelsea have completed their transfer deadline day swoop for Fernando Torres from Liverpool. Chelsea have completed their transfer deadline-day swoop for Fernando Torres from Liverpool on a five-and-a-half-year contract. The deal went right down to the wire ahead of the transfer window closing, with Torres only travelling down to London late on Monday evening to undergo a last-minute medical. But the Blues managed to push through the late deal before the window slammed shut, with the Spaniard penning a contract thought to be worth around £50million - a British transfer record. Premier League champions Chelsea first made a move for the Spaniard on Thursday with an unsuccessful £35m offer for his services. And Carlo Ancelotti's side persisted in their chase for the striker, despite the Reds insisting he was not on the market. Liverpool changed their stance over 26-year-old Torres after moving for Newcastle striking ace Andy Carroll and Ajax star Luis Suarez in two last-minute swoops of their own on Monday. Swoop A statement on Torres' official website said: "Spain international Fernando Torres will defend the Blue shirt of Chelsea after joining the London club on the January transfer deadline. "The striker has signed for the reigning Premier League and FA Cup champions for five and a half seasons. "After Liverpool and Chelsea had reached an agreement, the player travelled down to London where he successfully passed his medical before agreeing personal terms. "Fernando Torres then put pen to paper on a deal that will see the forward remain at Chelsea until June 2016." Torres says he is delighted to complete the move to Stamford Bridge. "I am very happy with my transfer to Chelsea and I am looking forward very much to helping my new team-mates this season and for many years to come," he said. "Having played against Chelsea many times since coming to England, and in some very big games I will never forget, I know there are many great players here and I will work hard to win a place in the team. "I hope I can score some important goals for the supporters to enjoy this season." Significant Chelsea chairman Bruce Buck added: "This is a very significant day for Chelsea, capturing one of the best players in the world with his peak years ahead of him. "We have long admired the talents of a player who is a proven goalscorer in English football and Fernando's arrival is a sign of our continuing high ambitious. I hope every Chelsea fan is as excited as I am with this news." Torres established himself as a key player at Anfield during his time on Merseyside, but has struggled to find his top form this season. The Spaniard, who spent almost four years at Liverpool after arriving from Atletico Madrid in 2007, could take on his former club as early as this weekend when the Reds travel to Stamford Bridge in the Premier League. | premier.league.143 |@lemmatized blue:3 wrap:1 torres:10 deal:4 chelsea:11 complete:3 transfer:6 deadline:3 day:3 swoop:4 fernando:5 liverpool:5 five:2 half:2 year:5 contract:2 go:1 right:1 wire:1 ahead:2 window:2 closing:1 travel:3 london:3 late:2 monday:2 evening:1 undergo:1 last:2 minute:2 medical:2 manage:1 push:1 slam:1 shut:1 spaniard:3 pen:2 think:1 worth:1 around:1 british:1 record:1 premier:3 league:3 champion:2 first:1 make:1 move:3 thursday:1 unsuccessful:1 offer:1 service:1 carlo:1 ancelotti:1 side:1 persist:1 chase:1 striker:2 despite:1 red:2 insist:1 market:1 change:1 stance:1 old:1 newcastle:1 striking:1 ace:1 andy:1 carroll:1 ajax:1 star:1 luis:1 suarez:1 two:1 statement:1 official:1 website:1 say:3 spain:1 international:1 defend:1 shirt:1 join:1 club:2 january:1 sign:2 reign:1 fa:1 cup:1 season:4 reach:1 agreement:1 player:5 successfully:1 pass:1 agree:1 personal:1 term:1 put:1 paper:1 see:1 forward:2 remain:1 june:1 delight:1 stamford:2 bridge:2 happy:1 look:1 much:1 help:1 new:1 team:2 mat:1 many:3 come:2 play:1 time:2 since:1 england:1 big:1 game:1 never:1 forget:1 know:1 great:1 work:1 hard:1 win:1 place:1 hope:2 score:1 important:1 goal:1 supporter:1 enjoy:1 significant:2 chairman:1 bruce:1 buck:1 add:1 capture:1 one:1 best:1 world:1 peak:1 long:1 admire:1 talent:1 proven:1 goalscorer:1 english:1 football:1 arrival:1 continue:1 high:1 ambitious:1 every:1 fan:1 excited:1 news:1 establish:1 key:1 anfield:1 merseyside:1 struggle:1 find:1 top:1 form:1 spend:1 almost:1 four:1 arrive:1 atletico:1 madrid:1 could:1 take:1 former:1 early:1 weekend:1 |@ngramms chelsea_complete:2 travel_london:2 monday_evening:1 late_deal:1 transfer_record:1 premier_league:3 champion_chelsea:1 offer_service:1 move_newcastle:1 fa_cup:1 liverpool_chelsea:1 pass_medical:1 agree_personal:1 complete_move:1 play_chelsea:1 work_hard:1 english_football:1 struggle_find:1 |
michelle.obama.102 | Bring Back Our Girls: Michelle Obama and Malala Yousafzai support campaign for return of kidnapped Nigeria schoolgirls Michelle Obama and Malala Yousafzai have become the latest high-profile figures to join worldwide calls for the return of almost 300 schoolgirls kidnapped in Nigeria. The leader of Boko Haram, an Islamic militant group trying to overthrow the government, threatened to "sell" the girls at a market. The latest horror inflicted by the rebels, who target educational institutions as part of their campaign against anything perceived to be "Western", triggered a viral social media campaign across the world. Mrs Obama tweeted: "Our prayers are with the missing Nigerian girls and their families. It's time to #BringBackOurGirls." The tweet included a picture of her in the White House holding a placard displaying the hashtag. Malala, who became a leading global advocate for girls' education after surviving an assassination attempt by the Taliban, is pictured holding a #BringBackOurGirls sign in the Twitter profile picture of her organisation. Angelina Jolie, Hilary Clinton, and Amy Poehler are among those lending their support to the campaign. More than 200 children were taken from school in the town of Chibok last month and eight more from another village on Monday. None of the girls have been found and the Nigerian government's perceived failure to rescue them has sparked angry protests. The US, Britain, France and China have sent experts to help the search. Boko Haram's uprising has claimed the lives of thousands of Muslims and Christians, including more than 1,500 people killed in attacks so far this year. The group, whose name roughly translates as "Western education is forbidden", has targeted schools as well as churches, mosques, government buildings and security forces. Their bloody campaign has highlighted the stark divide between Nigeria's wealthier and predominantly Christian south and Muslim north. | michelle.obama.102 |@lemmatized bring:1 back:1 girl:5 michelle:2 obama:3 malala:3 yousafzai:2 support:2 campaign:5 return:2 kidnap:2 nigeria:3 schoolgirls:1 become:2 late:2 high:1 profile:2 figure:1 join:1 worldwide:1 call:1 almost:1 schoolgirl:1 leader:1 boko:2 haram:2 islamic:1 militant:1 group:2 try:1 overthrow:1 government:3 threaten:1 sell:1 market:1 horror:1 inflict:1 rebel:1 target:2 educational:1 institution:1 part:1 anything:1 perceive:2 western:2 trigger:1 viral:1 social:1 medium:1 across:1 world:1 mrs:1 tweet:2 prayer:1 miss:1 nigerian:2 family:1 time:1 bringbackourgirls:2 include:2 picture:3 white:1 house:1 hold:2 placard:1 display:1 hashtag:1 lead:1 global:1 advocate:1 education:2 survive:1 assassination:1 attempt:1 taliban:1 sign:1 twitter:1 organisation:1 angelina:1 jolie:1 hilary:1 clinton:1 amy:1 poehler:1 among:1 lend:1 child:1 take:1 school:2 town:1 chibok:1 last:1 month:1 eight:1 another:1 village:1 monday:1 none:1 find:1 failure:1 rescue:1 spark:1 angry:1 protest:1 u:1 britain:1 france:1 china:1 send:1 expert:1 help:1 search:1 uprising:1 claim:1 life:1 thousand:1 muslim:2 christian:2 people:1 kill:1 attack:1 far:1 year:1 whose:1 name:1 roughly:1 translate:1 forbidden:1 well:1 church:1 mosque:1 building:1 security:1 force:1 bloody:1 highlight:1 stark:1 divide:1 wealthier:1 predominantly:1 south:1 north:1 |@ngramms michelle_obama:2 support_campaign:2 high_profile:1 militant_group:1 market_late:1 social_medium:1 white_house:1 picture_hold:1 china_send:1 claim_life:1 people_kill:1 security_force:1 |
ParisAttacks2015_(19) | France players praised for staying with Germany team in Stade de France Germany's acting FA president, Reinhard Rauball, has praised France's players for an "outstanding gesture of camaraderie" after they refused to leave the Stade de France on Friday night in a show of solidarity with their opponents. Both sets of players spent much of the night on mattresses in the stadium after Germany were advised not to return to their team hotel following the terrorist attacks across Paris. "The French said that they were staying as long as Germany had to stay," said Rauball. A group of empty minibuses left the stadium in the early hours to collect the German squad's bags from the hotel, where there had been a bomb scare earlier in the day. Players and staff then flew back to Frankfurt on Saturday morning. "The players were very afraid," said Germany's general manager, Oliver Bierhoff. "We didn't want to take any risks and we didn't know either whether all routes would have been secure, so we stayed. Our thoughts are with the victims and their relatives. We are just happy to have landed safely." The Germany players, who are due to play Holland in Hannover on Tuesday, later released a joint statement, saying: "We came to Paris to do what connects us all – to play football, together, against one another and in friendship. To have an enjoyable evening together with our fans, to show sporting ambition, but particularly we came for a fair and peaceful encounter. We all looked forward to playing in the Stade de France, to have a great night of football, which ended up turning into a nightmare. "It was a dull bang which changed everything. It produced pictures that will remain in our heads for a long time. We spent the night doing a lot of thought-processing. We asked ourselves why something like this could happen? How is such inhumanity even possible? There were a lot of answers but none that could explain these cowardly attacks. We lost a game of football on Friday evening. But nothing is as irrelevant as that right now." Fans and journalists who were inside the stadium described the atmosphere as "surreal". Loïc Tanzi, covering the game for Goal.com, said that while fans had cheered the first explosion, thinking it was a firework, the second detonation "plunged the stadium into silence … At half-time, a helicopter began to fly over the ground. Telephone calls and text messages left no one in any doubt. When the final whistle was blown the PA system announced: 'There have been incidents outside the stadium, please leave by the west gates.' Outside … chaos. There was a huge crowd surge and people were shouting: 'He's armed. He's going to shoot us.' And so we went back to the stands." Andreas Berten, a reporter for publishers Funke Mediengruppe, told the New York Times he had been waiting for a lift down to the dressing room area when "suddenly hundreds of fans came running back through the gates toward the field. We thought perhaps there were attackers coming into the stadium with guns." A France supporter, Frédéric Lavergne, told the Associated Press: "We heard the explosions but we thought they were home-made fireworks. [At the end] we preferred to stay on the field, that's where we felt safest." It was gone 11.30pm local time before the pitch cleared – with a group of fans filmed singing La Marseillaise defiantly as they walked out of the stadium. Among those caught up in the confusion were 1,200 volunteers and emergency workers who had been given free tickets to the game to honour their role in responding to the Alps Germanwings plane crash in March. The Airbus executive Rainer Ohler told Reuters: "It was supposed to be an evening of French and German celebration and appreciation after that tragic event. At first nobody thought of terrorism. It was when President Hollande left and people started getting texts that we realised what was going on." Among other tributes, Noël Le Graët, head of the French FA, said in a statement: "The French Football Federation shares the emotion that shakes the nation. We share the grief of the bereaved families and relatives." | ParisAttacks2015_(19) |@lemmatized france:6 player:6 praise:2 stay:5 germany:6 team:2 stade:3 de:3 act:1 fa:2 president:2 reinhard:1 rauball:2 outstanding:1 gesture:1 camaraderie:1 refuse:1 leave:5 friday:2 night:4 show:2 solidarity:1 opponent:1 set:1 spend:2 much:1 mattress:1 stadium:7 advise:1 return:1 hotel:2 follow:1 terrorist:1 attack:2 across:1 paris:2 french:4 say:6 long:2 group:2 empty:1 minibus:1 early:1 hour:1 collect:1 german:2 squad:1 bag:1 bomb:1 scare:1 earlier:1 day:1 staff:1 fly:2 back:3 frankfurt:1 saturday:1 morning:1 afraid:1 general:1 manager:1 oliver:1 bierhoff:1 want:1 take:1 risk:1 know:1 either:1 whether:1 route:1 would:1 secure:1 thought:2 victim:1 relative:2 happy:1 land:1 safely:1 due:1 play:3 holland:1 hannover:1 tuesday:1 later:1 release:1 joint:1 statement:2 come:4 connect:1 u:2 football:4 together:2 one:2 another:1 friendship:1 enjoyable:1 evening:3 fan:5 sporting:1 ambition:1 particularly:1 fair:1 peaceful:1 encounter:1 look:1 forward:1 great:1 end:2 turn:1 nightmare:1 dull:1 bang:1 change:1 everything:1 produce:1 picture:1 remain:1 head:2 time:4 lot:2 think:4 processing:1 ask:1 something:1 like:1 could:2 happen:1 inhumanity:1 even:1 possible:1 answer:1 none:1 explain:1 cowardly:1 lose:1 game:3 nothing:1 irrelevant:1 right:1 journalist:1 inside:1 describe:1 atmosphere:1 surreal:1 loïc:1 tanzi:1 cover:1 goal:1 com:1 cheer:1 first:2 explosion:2 firework:2 second:1 detonation:1 plunge:1 silence:1 half:1 helicopter:1 begin:1 ground:1 telephone:1 call:1 text:2 message:1 doubt:1 final:1 whistle:1 blow:1 pa:1 system:1 announce:1 incident:1 outside:2 please:1 west:1 gate:2 chaos:1 huge:1 crowd:1 surge:1 people:2 shout:1 arm:1 go:4 shoot:1 stand:1 andreas:1 berten:1 reporter:1 publisher:1 funke:1 mediengruppe:1 tell:2 new:1 york:1 wait:1 lift:1 dressing:1 room:1 area:1 suddenly:1 hundred:1 run:1 toward:1 field:2 perhaps:1 attacker:1 gun:1 supporter:1 frédéric:1 lavergne:1 associated:1 press:1 hear:1 home:1 make:1 prefer:1 felt:1 safe:1 local:1 pitch:1 clear:1 film:1 sing:1 la:1 marseillaise:1 defiantly:1 walk:1 among:2 catch:1 confusion:1 volunteer:1 emergency:1 worker:1 give:1 free:1 ticket:1 honour:1 role:1 respond:1 alps:1 germanwings:1 plane:1 crash:1 march:1 airbus:1 executive:1 rainer:1 ohler:1 told:1 reuters:1 suppose:1 celebration:1 appreciation:1 tragic:1 event:1 nobody:1 terrorism:1 hollande:1 start:1 get:1 realise:1 tribute:1 noël:1 le:1 graët:1 federation:1 share:2 emotion:1 shake:1 nation:1 grief:1 bereaved:1 family:1 |@ngramms germany_team:1 refuse_leave:1 friday_night:1 terrorist_attack:1 leave_stadium:1 early_hour:1 earlier_day:1 saturday_morning:1 general_manager:1 due_play:1 play_football:1 long_time:1 spend_night:1 game_football:1 friday_evening:1 inside_stadium:1 half_time:1 room_area:1 hundred_fan:1 stadium_gun:1 hear_explosion:1 local_time:1 free_ticket:1 plane_crash:1 french_german:1 president_hollande:1 leave_people:1 french_football:1 |
malaysia.airlines.flight.16 | Australia agrees to lead search in Indian Ocean for missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 Missing flight MH370 likely to be near Australia, says analyst Australia is taking charge of the search in the Indian Ocean for the missing Malaysia Airlines plane and has promised to commit more resources to finding the aircraft. In a significant deepening of Australia's responsibility, Prime Minister Tony Abbott told Parliament on Monday afternoon that Australia would co-ordinate operations in the vast search area to its west. The Indian Ocean lies on one of two ''vectors'' that authorities have identified as paths the mystery flight might have taken. If flight MH370 did indeed take a south-west path, then it would have most likely have gone into Australia's search and rescue zone, which stretches thousands of kilometres into the Indian Ocean, extending about halfway to southern Africa. Mr Abbott said he spoke to Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak early Monday afternoon and was asked to take over the Indian Ocean search. ''I agreed that we would do so. I offered the Malaysian Prime Minister additional maritime surveillance resources which he gratefully accepted.'' He said Defence Force chief General David Hurley had been in touch with his Malaysian counterpart to discuss how additional resources could be used. Presently Australia has two P-3 Orion surveillance planes contributing to the search. ''I wish to assure the House and ... the Australian people that Australia will do its duty in this matter,'' Mr Abbott said. ''We will do our duty to ensure that our search and rescue responsibilities are maintained and upheld and we will do our duty to the families of the 230 people on that aircraft who are still absolutely devastated by their absence and who are still profoundly, profoundly saddened by this as yet unfathomed mystery.'' | malaysia.airlines.flight.16 |@lemmatized australia:8 agree:2 lead:1 search:7 indian:5 ocean:5 miss:3 malaysia:2 airline:2 flight:4 likely:2 near:1 say:4 analyst:1 take:4 charge:1 plane:2 promise:1 commit:1 resource:3 find:1 aircraft:2 significant:1 deepening:1 responsibility:2 prime:3 minister:3 tony:1 abbott:3 tell:1 parliament:1 monday:2 afternoon:2 would:3 co:1 ordinate:1 operation:1 vast:1 area:1 west:2 lie:1 one:1 two:2 vector:1 authority:1 identify:1 path:2 mystery:2 might:1 indeed:1 south:1 go:1 rescue:2 zone:1 stretch:1 thousand:1 kilometre:1 extend:1 halfway:1 southern:1 africa:1 mr:2 speak:1 malaysian:3 najib:1 razak:1 early:1 ask:1 offer:1 additional:2 maritime:1 surveillance:2 gratefully:1 accept:1 defence:1 force:1 chief:1 general:1 david:1 hurley:1 touch:1 counterpart:1 discuss:1 could:1 use:1 presently:1 p:1 orion:1 contribute:1 wish:1 assure:1 house:1 australian:1 people:2 duty:3 matter:1 ensure:1 maintain:1 upheld:1 family:1 still:2 absolutely:1 devastate:1 absence:1 profoundly:2 sadden:1 yet:1 unfathomed:1 |@ngramms lead_search:1 indian_ocean:5 miss_malaysia_airline_flight:1 miss_flight:1 miss_malaysia_airline:1 find_aircraft:1 prime_minister:3 monday_afternoon:2 search_area:1 authority_identify:1 south_west:1 search_rescue:2 najib_razak:1 offer_malaysian:1 defence_force:1 responsibility_maintain:1 family_people:1 |
ParisAttacks2015_(33) | Paris attacks: Hollande and Obama to intensify anti-IS push The fight against so-called Islamic State (IS) will dominate talks in Washington shortly as French President Francois Hollande meets US President Barack Obama. The Paris suicide attacks claimed by IS have prompted the US to issue a worldwide travel alert to its citizens. President Hollande is meeting other world leaders this week, hoping to forge a stronger alliance against IS. But Turkey's downing of a Russian jet has fuelled tension over the Syria war. As Turkey is a Nato member the incident has put a new strain on Russian-Western efforts to neutralise the IS threat in Syria and Iraq. The US is unlikely to support French efforts to build a Russian-Western military alliance against IS, correspondents say. But there is some military co-ordination with Russia. France is now sending warplanes from the aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle, off the Syrian coast, to pound IS targets. Hollande's diplomatic push Monday: Met UK Prime Minister David Cameron in Paris Tuesday: In Washington to meet US President Barack Obama Wednesday: Meets German Chancellor Angela Merkel in Paris Thursday: Goes to Moscow to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin Sunday: Meets China's President Xi Jinping in Paris Mr Hollande's search for allies Russia has also stepped up air raids against anti-government rebels in Syria, since a Russian airliner was blown up over Egypt by suspected IS-linked militants last month. But Western leaders have urged Russia to focus its raids on IS, not on other groups fighting Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. Meanwhile, French police are examining what appears to be a suicide bomb belt dumped on a Paris street following the 13 November attacks that killed 130 people. It is said to resemble belts used by the attackers and was found in a suburb which a suspect is thought to have passed through after the attacks. The key suspect, Salah Abdeslam, remains at large and a massive manhunt for him continues. After the attacks he fled to Belgium, where he and some of the other jihadists were based. German media reported that there may have been sightings of him in the northern state of North Rhine-Westphalia. but a police operation near the town of Espelkamp is now reportedly over with no arrests made. The Belgian capital Brussels remains on high alert, with schools and the metro closed, on the fourth day of an unprecedented lockdown. They are due to reopen on Wednesday, but the highest alert level will continue for at least another week. Belgian prosecutors say five people have now been charged on suspicion of involvement with the Paris attacks and that a judge has issued a European and international arrest warrant for a man named as Mohamed Abrini, 30. Two days before the attacks, Abrini was seen driving a car with Salah Abdeslam at a petrol station in Ressons on the motorway to Paris. The Renault Clio was later used in the attacks, prosecutors say. | ParisAttacks2015_(33) |@lemmatized paris:8 attack:8 hollande:5 obama:3 intensify:1 anti:2 push:2 fight:2 call:1 islamic:1 state:2 dominate:1 talk:1 washington:2 shortly:1 french:3 president:7 francois:1 meet:6 u:4 barack:2 suicide:2 claim:1 prompt:1 issue:2 worldwide:1 travel:1 alert:3 citizen:1 world:1 leader:2 week:2 hop:1 forge:1 strong:1 alliance:2 turkey:2 downing:1 russian:5 jet:1 fuel:1 tension:1 syria:3 war:1 nato:1 member:1 incident:1 put:1 new:1 strain:1 western:3 effort:2 neutralise:1 threat:1 iraq:1 unlikely:1 support:1 build:1 military:2 correspondent:1 say:4 co:1 ordination:1 russia:3 france:1 send:1 warplane:1 aircraft:1 carrier:1 charles:1 de:1 gaulle:1 syrian:2 coast:1 pound:1 target:1 diplomatic:1 monday:1 uk:1 prime:1 minister:1 david:1 cameron:1 tuesday:1 wednesday:2 meets:1 german:2 chancellor:1 angela:1 merkel:1 thursday:1 go:1 moscow:1 vladimir:1 putin:1 sunday:1 china:1 xi:1 jinping:1 mr:1 search:1 ally:1 also:1 step:1 air:1 raid:2 government:1 rebel:1 since:1 airliner:1 blow:1 egypt:1 suspect:3 link:1 militant:1 last:1 month:1 urge:1 focus:1 group:1 bashar:1 al:1 assad:1 meanwhile:1 police:2 examine:1 appear:1 bomb:1 belt:2 dump:1 street:1 follow:1 november:1 kill:1 people:2 resemble:1 use:2 attacker:1 find:1 suburb:1 think:1 pass:1 key:1 salah:2 abdeslam:2 remain:2 large:1 massive:1 manhunt:1 continue:2 flee:1 belgium:1 jihadist:1 base:1 medium:1 report:1 may:1 sighting:1 northern:1 north:1 rhine:1 westphalia:1 operation:1 near:1 town:1 espelkamp:1 reportedly:1 arrest:2 make:1 belgian:2 capital:1 brussels:1 high:2 school:1 metro:1 close:1 fourth:1 day:2 unprecedented:1 lockdown:1 due:1 reopen:1 level:1 least:1 another:1 prosecutor:2 five:1 charge:1 suspicion:1 involvement:1 judge:1 european:1 international:1 warrant:1 man:1 name:1 mohamed:1 abrini:2 two:1 see:1 drive:1 car:1 petrol:1 station:1 ressons:1 motorway:1 renault:1 clio:1 later:1 |@ngramms paris_attack:2 islamic_state:1 french_president:1 francois_hollande:1 president_barack_obama:2 paris_suicide:1 attack_claim:1 president_hollande:1 world_leader:1 jet_fuel:1 russian_western:2 syria_iraq:1 support_french:1 prime_minister:1 paris_thursday:1 mr_hollande:1 french_police:1 suicide_bomb:1 paris_street:1 november_attack:1 kill_people:1 key_suspect:1 salah_abdeslam:2 remain_large:1 flee_belgium:1 medium_report:1 police_operation:1 arrest_make:1 belgian_capital:1 high_alert:2 close_fourth:1 international_arrest:1 drive_car:1 |
michelle.obama.115 | Jarrett, Michelle Obama pushed for gay marriage President Obama mentioned that he and his wife share the position he announced in support of gay marriage, and Thrush and Budoff Brown dig deeper into who helped him arrive where he did: Senior White House officials, speaking to a small group of reporters at a Wednesday background briefing, denied reports that two of Obama's top political advisers, David Plouffe and David Axelrod, urged Obama to slow-walk the decision for fear of a backlash. They say the internal debate ended about three months ago when the president told them he supported gay marriage after weighing the personal, religious and political considerations. But there were clearly some in Obama's inner circle who were more enthusiastic about the decision than others, according to advocates and top Democrats. Two of the most consistent advocates for marriage equality were two of the most important women in Obama's life: his wife Michelle and Senior Adviser Valerie Jarrett, who has repeatedly told her friends in the LGBT community that Obama was moving in their direction, according to people familiar with those interactions. | michelle.obama.115 |@lemmatized jarrett:2 michelle:2 obama:7 push:1 gay:3 marriage:4 president:2 mention:1 wife:2 share:1 position:1 announce:1 support:2 thrush:1 budoff:1 brown:1 dig:1 deeper:1 help:1 arrive:1 senior:2 white:1 house:1 official:1 speak:1 small:1 group:1 reporter:1 wednesday:1 background:1 briefing:1 deny:1 report:1 two:3 top:2 political:2 adviser:2 david:2 plouffe:1 axelrod:1 urge:1 slow:1 walk:1 decision:2 fear:1 backlash:1 say:1 internal:1 debate:1 end:1 three:1 month:1 ago:1 tell:2 weigh:1 personal:1 religious:1 consideration:1 clearly:1 inner:1 circle:1 enthusiastic:1 others:1 accord:2 advocate:2 democrat:1 consistent:1 equality:1 important:1 woman:1 life:1 valerie:1 repeatedly:1 friend:1 lgbt:1 community:1 move:1 direction:1 people:1 familiar:1 interaction:1 |@ngramms michelle_obama:1 president_obama:1 support_gay:2 white_house:1 official_speak:1 obama_life:1 wife_michelle:1 obama_move:1 accord_people:1 |
samsung.galaxy.s5.44 | Samsung profits decline as other OEMs eat its lunch Sales numbers always show gains for Android as a whole quarter after quarter. The little green robot continues to be unstoppable, and in the past few years that has largely been thanks to Samsung's domination of the Android device ecosystem. It ruled the high-end with the Galaxy S series and cleaned up at the low end with devices like the Galaxy Ace. The newest numbers show Android still on the rise, but Samsung is faltering as it deals with attacks from both ends of the market. The Korean OEM might have to change to stay on top. Samsung is reporting its lowest profits in more than two years, which must be concerning to a company used to big growth. So what's causing Samsung's woes? Perhaps the most obvious issue is that high-end smartphones are peaking — the market is simply becoming saturated with people who already have smartphones, and most of them aren't going to spend $700 to get the new Galaxy S every year. No, they'll just wait until their contract is up for renewal, thank you very much. It's not just saturation, though. Samsung is also experiencing competition from top-tier OEMs like it has never seen before. Samsung's hometown rival LG used to be almost irrelevant in the smartphone market, but phones like the Nexus 5 and G3 have catapulted LG into the spotlight. It's very much a darling of the Android world among western consumers right now. For HTC's problems, it's finally seeing some growth, and the M8 is a beautiful premium device. The Galaxy S5 is a very good phone, but it's not objectively better than the other flagship devices right now. Add to that Samsung's continued build quality issues and you have a recipe for trouble. Perhaps even more vexing for Samsung is the trend in low-cost devices. It's the flagship devices that get all the attention, but most Android phones are mid-range and low-end devices, many of which are sold in developing markets. Samsung used to dominate here as well, but Chinese OEMs are finding more success at home and abroad. Huawei actually doubled its phone shipments year-over-year, and Lenovo saw big increases in China too. These companies work to deeply integrate services that Chinese consumers can use in a market where Google's services are unreliable or inaccessible — Samsung isn't in a position to do that. The pending acquisition of Motorola by Lenovo is also bad news for Samsung. It gives Lenovo a well-known brand outside of China and access to a lot of technology. The Moto G and Moto E have sold very well in developing markets around the world, and future devices based on that model could move even more units with Lenovo at the helm. While Samsung is staying outwardly aloof, I wouldn't be surprised if there was a moderate amount of panic inside the company. There are already signs that the OEM is looking to pivot and regain some momentum. The first Tizen smartphone has been postponed indefinitely and the company plans to release an Android phone this year that isn't made out of plastic, which should help its products feel a bit more premium. There are rumors of a "Galaxy Alpha" device launching in the next few months. This phone would be a metallic remix of the current Galaxy S5, possibly including a few spec bumps. However, the real test of Samsung's will to change its fortunes will the the launch of the Galaxy Note 4 later this year. If it's just another plastic Samsung phone with the same ol' design, other OEMs might continue to gobble up market share. This could be good for us, though. Competition means more innovation and compelling products. | samsung.galaxy.s5.44 |@lemmatized samsung:15 profit:2 decline:1 oems:4 eat:1 lunch:1 sale:1 number:2 always:1 show:2 gain:1 android:6 whole:1 quarter:2 little:1 green:1 robot:1 continue:3 unstoppable:1 past:1 year:7 largely:1 thanks:1 domination:1 device:9 ecosystem:1 rule:1 high:2 end:5 galaxy:7 series:1 clean:1 low:4 like:3 ace:1 new:2 still:1 rise:1 falter:1 deal:1 attack:1 market:7 korean:1 oem:2 might:2 change:2 stay:2 top:2 report:1 two:1 must:1 concern:1 company:4 use:4 big:2 growth:2 cause:1 woe:1 perhaps:2 obvious:1 issue:2 smartphones:2 peak:1 simply:1 become:1 saturate:1 people:1 already:2 go:1 spend:1 get:2 every:1 wait:1 contract:1 renewal:1 thank:1 much:2 saturation:1 though:2 also:2 experience:1 competition:2 tier:1 never:1 see:2 hometown:1 rival:1 lg:2 almost:1 irrelevant:1 smartphone:2 phone:7 nexus:1 catapult:1 spotlight:1 darling:1 world:2 among:1 western:1 consumer:2 right:2 htc:1 problem:1 finally:1 beautiful:1 premium:2 good:2 objectively:1 well:4 flagship:2 add:1 build:1 quality:1 recipe:1 trouble:1 even:2 vex:1 trend:1 cost:1 attention:1 mid:1 range:1 many:1 sell:2 develop:2 dominate:1 chinese:2 find:1 success:1 home:1 abroad:1 huawei:1 actually:1 double:1 shipment:1 lenovo:4 saw:1 increase:1 china:2 work:1 deeply:1 integrate:1 service:2 google:1 unreliable:1 inaccessible:1 position:1 pending:1 acquisition:1 motorola:1 bad:1 news:1 give:1 know:1 brand:1 outside:1 access:1 lot:1 technology:1 moto:2 g:1 e:1 around:1 future:1 base:1 model:1 could:2 move:1 unit:1 helm:1 outwardly:1 aloof:1 surprise:1 moderate:1 amount:1 panic:1 inside:1 sign:1 look:1 pivot:1 regain:1 momentum:1 first:1 tizen:1 postpone:1 indefinitely:1 plan:1 release:1 make:1 plastic:2 help:1 product:2 feel:1 bit:1 rumor:1 alpha:1 launch:2 next:1 month:1 would:1 metallic:1 remix:1 current:1 possibly:1 include:1 spec:1 bump:1 however:1 real:1 test:1 fortune:1 note:1 later:1 another:1 ol:1 design:1 gobble:1 share:1 u:1 mean:1 innovation:1 compelling:1 |@ngramms sale_number:1 android_device:1 high_end:2 galaxy_series:1 low_end:2 number_show:1 end_market:1 low_profit:1 smartphone_market:1 device_galaxy:1 good_phone:1 flagship_device:2 samsung_continue:1 build_quality:1 android_phone:2 market_samsung:1 market_google:1 develop_market:1 base_model:1 plan_release:1 galaxy_alpha:1 test_samsung:1 galaxy_note:1 samsung_phone:1 market_share:1 |
smartphone.78 | Worldwide smartphone user base hits 1 billion A year ago, the total installed base for smartphones had reached 708 million, according to Strategy Analytics. The smartphone industry has reached an important milestone. During the third quarter, the total installed base for smartphones worldwide hit 1.04 billion, jumping from the 959 million smartphones in use during the second quarter, research firm Strategy Analytics announced today. Just a year ago, the total worldwide smartphone installed base was 708 million. It took 16 years for smartphones to reach the 1 billion mark. The Nokia Communicator, a device that first launched in 1996, is widely viewed as the first smartphone to hit store shelves. Since then, a host of smartphone makers have jumped into the fray. "Nokia remained a dominant force in smartphones for over a decade until the arrival of Apple's iconic iPhone in 2007," Strategy Analytics senior analyst Scott Bicheno said today in a statement. "The iPhone revolutionized smartphone design and it catalyzed industry growth." Neil Mawston, Strategy Analytics' executive director, estimates that one in seven people around the world owned a smartphone during the third quarter. However, he noted that penetration is still "relatively low," creating a huge market opportunity for vendors. "Most of the world does not yet own a smartphone and there remains huge scope for future growth, particularly in emerging markets such as China, India and Africa," Mawston said today in a statement. "The first billion smartphones in use worldwide took 16 years to reach, but we forecast the next billion to be achieved in less than three years, by 2015." Research firm Ovum earlier this year also said that it believes smartphone ownership will soar in the coming years. That company reported that smartphone shipments hit 448 million units last year and will jump to 1.7 billion by 2017. | smartphone.78 |@lemmatized worldwide:4 smartphone:10 user:1 base:4 hit:4 billion:6 year:8 ago:2 total:3 instal:3 smartphones:6 reach:4 million:4 accord:1 strategy:4 analytics:4 industry:2 important:1 milestone:1 third:2 quarter:3 jump:3 use:2 second:1 research:2 firm:2 announce:1 today:3 take:2 mark:1 nokia:2 communicator:1 device:1 first:3 launch:1 widely:1 view:1 store:1 shelf:1 since:1 host:1 maker:1 fray:1 remain:2 dominant:1 force:1 decade:1 arrival:1 apple:1 iconic:1 iphone:2 senior:1 analyst:1 scott:1 bicheno:1 say:3 statement:2 revolutionize:1 design:1 catalyze:1 growth:2 neil:1 mawston:2 executive:1 director:1 estimate:1 one:1 seven:1 people:1 around:1 world:2 however:1 note:1 penetration:1 still:1 relatively:1 low:1 create:1 huge:2 market:2 opportunity:1 vendor:1 yet:1 scope:1 future:1 particularly:1 emerge:1 china:1 india:1 africa:1 forecast:1 next:1 achieve:1 less:1 three:1 ovum:1 earlier:1 also:1 believe:1 ownership:1 soar:1 come:1 company:1 report:1 shipment:1 unit:1 last:1 |@ngramms worldwide_smartphone:2 user_base:1 hit_billion:2 smartphones_reach:2 million_accord:1 base_smartphones:1 research_firm:2 smartphone_hit:1 smartphone_maker:1 executive_director:1 emerge_market:1 company_report:1 million_unit:1 |
ParisAttacks2015_(11) | The Expanding Web of Connections Among the Paris Attackers The French and Belgian authorities have established a growing list of individuals suspected of participating in the Islamic State's terrorist attacks in Paris on Nov. 13. Of the 10 assailants directly involved in the attacks, one remains at large. Connections to the Organizer of the Attacks Abdelhamid Abaaoud is suspected of being a leader of a branch of the Islamic State in Syria called Katibat al-Battar al Libi, which has its origins in Libya. Bilal Hadfi was in contact through Facebook with members of the branch and is thought to have linked arms with Mr. Abaaoud in Syria. Ibrahim and Salah Abdeslam, who are brothers, lived near Mr. Abaaoud in Molenbeek, a district in Brussels known as a haven for extremists. Ismaël Omar Mostefaï had been in contact with Mr. Abaaoud, according to a French official. Hasna Aitboulahcen, Mr. Abaaoud's cousin, and Jawad Bendaoud are suspected of helping Mr. Abaaoud find housing in a Paris suburb after the attacks. The Molenbeek Connection Abdelhamid Abaaoud and Ibrahim Abdeslam spent time in the same Brussels prison and were friends. Mr. Abaaoud, the Abdeslam brothers, Hamza Attou and Mohamed Amri spent time together at a neighborhood bar. After the attacks, Salah Abdeslam asked Mr. Attou and Mr. Amri to drive him back to Brussels. Ali O. and Abraimi Lazez, who are also suspected of helping Salah Abdeslam flee after the attacks, also lived in Molenbeek. Other plots linked to Molenbeek Amedy Coulibaly, who was involved in the Charlie Hebdo attack, is believed to have bought weapons there. Mehdi Nemmouche, a Frenchman who targeted Jews at a Brussels museum in 2014, killing four, also bought weapons there. Ayoub el Khazzani, a Moroccan who tried to attack passengers on a high-speed train between Brussels and Paris in August, is thought to have lived there. French police raided an apartment early on Nov. 18 in the northern Paris suburb of St.-Denis, a few miles from where the suicide bomb attacks at the Stade de France took place. Three people died, including Abdelhamid Abaaoud, a 28-year-old Belgian man who is suspected of planning the Paris attacks, and his 26-year-old cousin Hasna Aitboulahcen. A French prosecutor said Mr. Abaaoud and an unidentified man who died during the raid might have participated in the series of attacks outside four restaurants. Intelligence officials in both France and the United States had previously said they believed Mr. Abaaoud was in Syria. He has fought for the Islamic State in Syria has been prominently featured in Islamic State propaganda. According to a European official, he was a target of Western airstrikes in Syria as recently as last month. Mr. Abaaoud has also been linked to several other plots, including a foiled plot in January in eastern Belgium, in which two of his associated died; a plot in April to attack a church in a Paris suburb; and an attack in August aboard a high-speed train heading to Paris. Raids in French and Belgian Dragnet On Nov. 19, several police raids were held in the Brussels area, many of them targeting friends and relatives of Bilal Hadfi, one of the stadium bombers. Nine people were detained, and seven have since been released. The police led 414 raids across France over the three nights early in the week, Bernard Cazeneuve, the French interior minister, said in a statement on Nov. 18. Sixty people were arrested and detained, and 75 weapons were seized. The statement added that 118 people were put under house arrest. Two were also arrested and charged in Brussels on Saturday in connection with the attacks. Molenbeek, well known as a haven for extremists, was also the base for Mr. Abaaoud and Salah and Ibrahim Abdeslam, two brothers connected with the attacks. The three lived close to the district's main police station and would hang out at a neighborhood bar that was at one time owned by Ibrahim and became known as a local drug den. Hamza Attou and Mohamed Amri, who were arrested Nov. 17 in connection with the attacks, also hung out at the bar. Two Brothers Are Linked to the Attacks The French authorities are investigating the role of two brothers who lived in the Molenbeek neighborhood of Brussels. Ibrahim Abdeslam died in the Paris attacks, and Salah Abdeslam is being sought. The two used to hang out with Mr. Abaaoud at a neighborhood bar. A third brother, Mohamed, was detained on Nov. 14 but released two days later and is not believed to have been involved. Salah Abdeslam, 26 The one known fugitive of the attacks, he remains at large despite an intense manhunt that has stretched across France, Belgium and Germany. Officials say one hypothesis is that he dropped off the three suicide bombers at Stade de France. The morning after the attacks, Mr. Abdeslam and two other men went through a roadside check in Cambrai, France, on the way to Belgium. Later that afternoon in Molenbeek, the car was seized and Mr. Abdeslam's two companions, Hamza Attou, 21, and Mohamed Amri, 27, were arrested. Two other men, Ali O., 31, a Frenchman living in Molenbeek, and Abraimi Lazez, 39, a Moroccan living in Molenbeek, have also been arrested after helping Mr. Abdeslam flee, according to the federal prosecutor's office in Brussels. An arrest warrant was issued Tuesday for Mohamed Abrini, 30, who officials said was seen with Mr. Abdeslam two days before the attacks. The two men were driving a Renault Clio that apparently was used later to drop off the suicide bombers at the soccer stadium. Ibrahim Abdeslam, 31 Ibrahim Abdeslam died detonating a suicide vest at a cafe during the attacks. He had a history of criminal activity and once stood trial for a petty crime with Mr. Abaaoud, according to sources who received confirmation from the Belgian authorities. Three Bombers Attacked the Stadium Three attackers detonated suicide vests outside the Stade de France, where a soccer match between France and Germany was being played. Gate D Bomber The first attacker detonated his explosives at 9:20 p.m. on Rue Rimet, near Gate D of the stadium. One other person was killed. The attacker was carrying a passport for a 25-year-old named Ahmad al-Mohammad from Idlib, Syria. The passport had been used by a man posing as a migrant who passed through the Greek island of Leros on Oct. 3 and Presevo, Serbia, on Oct. 7. The French authorities believe that the passport may have been stolen, and the French police asked the public on Tuesday for help in identifying the man, using a photo from an identity document that was issued in Greece. Gate H Bomber The unidentified second attacker at the stadium detonated his explosives at 9:30 p.m. on Rue Rimet, near Gate H of the stadium. No one else was reported killed. Officials reported on Friday that fingerprints matching the bomber were taken at a check for migrants in Greece on Oct. 3. Fingerprints for the Gate D bomber were taken during the same check. On Nov. 22, the French National Police posted on Twitter a picture without a name, and asked anyone who had information on the person to contact the authorities. Bilal Hadfi, 20 The third attacker, identified as Bilal Hadfi, a 20-year-old French citizen living in Belgium, detonated his explosives at 9:53 p.m. on Rue de la Cokerie, just outside of a McDonald's restaurant about 300 meters from the stadium. No one else was reported killed. Mr. Hadfi is thought to have gone to Syria early this year. In June, he posted a call on Facebook to attack the West, saying: "Those dogs are attacking our civilians everywhere. Strike them in their community of pigs so they can't feel safe again in their own dreams." Three Men Attacked the Concert Hall Three men with assault rifles attacked people during a concert at the Bataclan music hall and rounded up survivors as hostages. Police entered the hall at 12:30 a.m. One attacker's suicide vest detonated when he was shot by police, while the other two attackers detonated their vests on their own. A total of 89 people were killed at the hall. Ismaël Omar Mostefaï, 29 One of the concert hall attackers has been identified as Ismaël Omar Mostefaï, a 29-year-old French citizen with a history of criminal activity who was known to the authorities as someone who had radical Islamist beliefs. Six of his relatives were detained by authorities for questioning. According to an official, he was in contact with Mr. Abaaoud, who is suspected of being an organizer behind the attacks. Mr. Mostefaï reportedly entered Turkey in 2013 but "there is no record of him leaving the country." Samy Amimour, 28 Samy Amimour was born in Paris and lived in a suburb, according to the French prosecutor's office. He had been previously charged with terrorist conspiracy, and in December 2014, the French newspaper Le Monde published an article about how his father had traveled to Syria to try to bring him back (he was not named at the time). Third Attacker The attackers arrived at the Bataclan in a gray Volkswagen Polo and abandoned the car nearby. The car was rented by Salah Abdeslam in Belgium. Another Team Attacked Restaurants Gunmen using Kalashnikov-type assault rifles killed 39 people in three separate shootings outside restaurants in central Paris, leaving behind hundreds of 7.62 mm cartridge cases. A suicide bomber detonated his explosives inside another restaurant in the area. Gunmen An unknown number of gunmen in a black Seat Léon attacked three locations between 9:25 p.m. and 9:36 p.m. Ibrahim Abdeslam, 31 At 9:40 p.m., a suicide bomber identified as Ibrahim Abdeslam, a 31-year-old French citizen living in Belgium, detonated a vest identical to the ones used near the stadium inside a restaurant a mile from the where the last round of restaurant shootings occurred. No one else was reported killed in the explosion. It is unclear if the bomber had been in the car with the gunmen. Mr. Abdeslam had at one point stood trial for petty crime with Mr. Abaaoud, according to sources who received confirmation from Belgian authorities. What We Know A black Seat Léon used as the gunmen's getaway car was found on Nov. 15 morning in Montreuil, an eastern Paris suburb. The car, which contained three Kalashnikov rifles, was rented in Belgium last week by Ibrahim Abdeslam. Mr. Abaaoud and a third unidentified man are also suspected of participating in the restaurant attacks. | ParisAttacks2015_(11) |@lemmatized expand:1 web:1 connection:5 among:1 paris:12 attackers:1

ParisAttacks2015_(13) | Life and Death on the Boulevard Voltaire Terror returns to a Paris street with a long history of violence. Neither the Mona Lisa nor the Eiffel Tower, nor any of the quais of the Seine, but Le Petit Cambodge, le Café Bonne Bière, La Belle Équipe: Unassuming restaurants, near homes and jobs. The institutions that were targeted for terror on Friday stood for nothing bigger than Paris nightlife, Kronenbourgs freely on the sidewalk, an espresso at the zinc counter. Random, it seems, but if you study a map, you do see a pattern: the attacks are constellated along the Boulevard Voltaire. The Boulevard Voltaire is a grand, tree-lined avenue that connects the pétanque-heavy roundabout of the Place de la Nation with the Place de la République to the north, and it is the artery where most French strikes take place. First named as the Boulevard du Prince-Eugène by Napoleon III, its construction by the hungry city-planner Georges-Eugène Haussmann was immortalized in Émile Zola's Rougon-Macquart cycle of Second Empire novels. The boulevard was renamed in 1870 to honor the Enlightenment philosopher Voltaire, that French prince of liberté. "In this country it is well to kill from time to time an admiral to encourage the others," Voltaire wrote in Candide. Perhaps his best-known rallying cry is "Écrasez l'infâme"—"Crush the infamous thing." Not, here, posh department stores serving crème de cassis beneath stained-glass domes. The Boulevard Voltaire has been a thoroughfare for the working-class, and those who are proud to stand with it: unions, syndicates, immigrants, people in protest. In France, today and all days, there are many—marching, yelling, often reveling, past the bars and video-game shops. No wonder a group of independent journalists picked "Boulevard Voltaire" as the name of their website, the tagline for which is "Liberty guides our steps." Boulevard Voltaire represents the young French person's way of life. And, in retrospect, no wonder it was targeted Friday. Just north of Paris in Saint-Denis, where the kings of France are buried, there were terrorists in suicide vests outside the national stadium, and the president evacuated from within. But many of the attacks happened near the boulevard: shootings at three restaurants a few minutes' away; a suicide bombing at the Comptoir Voltaire at 253 Boulevard Voltaire; and finally at the Bataclan concert hall at 50 Boulevard Voltaire, there were AK-47s and hostages, where there should have been music. The street has been a scene of violence many times. During the Commune of Paris, in 1871, it hosted barricades and revolutionary schemes to recapture Montmartre, to march on the center of Paris. Auguste-Jean-Marie Vermorel, a socialist journalist, was gravely wounded on the boulevard during the "Semaine Sanglante," that "bloody week" that ended the Communard dream. In 1957, the boulevard's Place Voltaire boulevard was renamed for Léon Blum, the first Jewish prime minister of France, whose country later sent him to concentration camps. In 1962, at the entrance to the Charonne Métro station on the boulevard, police killed nine people, most of them communists, who had been demonstrating against the Algerian War and the activities of the Secret Army Organization, an extremist group that violently opposed Algerian independence. In 1996, hundreds of African immigrants seeking asylum occupied the Saint-Ambroise Church on the boulevard—until the police expelled them before dawn one March morning. And, more recently, in 2006, a 23-year-old French Jew named Ilan Halimi was working in a cell-phone shop on the Boulevard Voltaire when he was kidnapped, tortured, and killed for being Jewish. I lived off the Boulevard Voltaire after college, but I did not know this past, and did not know that it was, at least in part, a Jewish quarter. I did not know, then, either, that my mother's late mother had grown up nearby. She, a French Jew, had survived the Holocaust in Paris in hiding, and left her country for the United States after the war. (She died when I was two months old, but passed her citizenship onto me.) I learned about my grandmother from her friend Madeleine, who had hidden in Paris, too, and who never left. I learned about the Boulevard Voltaire from the people who spoke to me on my walks home from the Métro—young French Jews, particularly men, signaling that in France you're never free from what your face or ethnicity may say about you. Several times I was asked to wear a t-shirt in support of Halimi, to light a candle, to join a Shabbat dinner that Friday. From my commute I got to know the Jewish shops and eateries on the Boulevard Voltaire—terrific pastries, imperfect bagels. And I got to know that the Bataclan on the Boulevard Voltaire was owned by Jews, too—Pascal Laloux and his brother Joel—and had been for forty years. For this, it had been targeted several times. In 2007 and 2008, Le Bataclan, a pagoda style building with bright red and yellow facades from the 1860s, received threats. The venue was hosting conferences and galas for Jewish organizations. (One was in support of the Israeli border police.) In 2011, a Belgian man named Farouk Ben Abbes, arrested in Egypt in conjunction with a terror attack that killed a French high school student, confessed that he was "planning an attack against the Bataclan." Yesterday, Laloux told an Israeli news channel that in fact he his brother had sold the concert hall this past September, and that he had since moved to Israel. After the attacks on Charlie Hebdo and the kosher supermarket Hyper Cacher in January, the Jewish Agency forecasted that 15,000 French Jews would—like Laloux—leave for Israel in 2015, more than double the number that left in 2014. The terror-alert level in Paris has been high since then. But what could have prepared us for this? Satirists who drew the prophet Mohammed, Jews: these were groups of people who, in some awful sense, knew that they were hated—they had been warned. "Je suis Charlie," millions of French people had said, posted, worn, then, in solidarity—solidarity with others that they (for the most part) knew they were not. The violence against Jews may have shocked, but it did not surprise. But what is the unifying factor, now? Benjamin Canet, a hedge-fund analyst I met in the wake of the Charlie Hebdo attacks, has been cautioning for months that France has under-reacted to the January attacks. Canet once was Secretary General of the French union of Jewish students, a position for which he required security. His father, Jacques Canet, is the chairman and president of the Grand Synagogue de la Victoire—Paris's central synagogue, where Alfred Dreyfus and Lucie Eugénie Hadamard were married—but the younger Canet has become a permanent resident of New York. I wrote to him Friday night, and he assured me he and his family were all right. But he could not keep from lamenting, from warning again. He wrote: The right measures were just not taken at the French and E.U. levels. Passport swiping, intelligence coordination, surveillance improvements are just not there. We'll probably learn, like after the Thalys attack, that the terrorists were on lists but were not monitored. [The suspect Ismaël Omar Mostefaï had been blacklisted in 2010 due to extreme behaviors in Chartres, the French city where Mostefai lived] Or the government will try everything to hide it. There will be no 'national unity' this time. Or at least it won't last because hopefully people will not buy the government's empty words and will ask for real results. "Charlie journalists knew they were at risk…" And, "Jews, well, are Jews…" This time, will people finally understand that everyone's a target? My French cousin Lorraine wrote to me on Saturday, "It appears everyone I know is safe, and everyone that I know remotely knows someone who isn't." My mother called her mother's friend Madeleine's daughter, Pascale. One of Pascale's daughters lost a teacher in Friday's mayhem. "Her children are young," my mother wrote me. "And as parents, it's awful when you can't protect your children and they know that." A friend in Paris who lives close to the Boulevard Voltaire was trying to figure out how to, whether to, celebrate her birthday. She decided to roast a chicken: Carrying on. An American lawyer friend who is working in France for the year sent pictures of young people gathered with candles at the foot of République. "Not even scared," a banner read. He told me there was extra security outside synagogues and the Shoah memorial. There is always security outside synagogues. "I went to a party in the 10th and danced last night," he texted me, "because fuck those guys." On Saturday, the owner of the Comptoir Voltaire told L'Express that the terrorist had come into the café calmly. He sat and he took in the scene at 253 Boulevard Voltaire, the sipping and chattering clientele. He waited to order before he detonated his suicide belt. | ParisAttacks2015_(13) |@lemmatized life:2 death:1 boulevard:23 voltaire:20 terror:4 return:1 paris:10 street:2 long:1 history:1 violence:3

malaysia.airlines.flight.137 | Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 puts UN search agency's protocol to the test With 26 nations hovering over disputed waters and fragile security zones, the search for MH370 in the southern Indian Ocean seems like a giant game of Risk. A United Nation's agency is in charge of multi-national search and rescue operations. But the latest drama has exposed its limits. Some experts are urging that the rules be changed to ensure countries share accurate data and allow greater access to naval ships searching for wreckage in foreign waters. MH370's search effort, involving ships and planes from many nations, on the surface looks likes an harmonious exercise. But behind the scenes it has been complicated by sovereignty disputes and worries about sharing sensitive military data. At stake is the effectiveness of the 70-year-old United Nations' International Civil Aviation Organisation, which defines the protocols of air traffic investigations. "The incident has exposed how fragile the current joint search and rescue mechanism is," said Oh Ei Sun, a senior fellow at the S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies in Singapore. "The whole saga shows that countries still put national sovereignty and territorial concerns over humanitarian needs. The countries do not want to share data because they don't want others to know about their radar coverage." Most accident investigations are handled by a country or countries linked with the disaster. Under the ICAO framework, in the case of an accident outside a specific jurisdiction, nations nearest the scene should provide assistance and respond to requests from the country where the plane is registered. But the UN organisation's mission is vague. It doesn't stipulate what happens when the primary investigating country has little expertise in handling such a disaster, or if and when responsibility for an investigation should be carried by a bigger, better equipped country, perhaps one that has no direct involvement. Some experts say the magnitude of the MH370 investigation appears to have overwhelmed Malaysian officials. They have given confusing and contradictory information about the flight path and communications with the Boeing 777. China - home to most of the passengers - has been especially frustrated. James Fry, an international law expert at the University of Hong Kong, said the UN body should be given a stronger co-ordination role to delegate all or part of the investigation to another country by mutual consent. "If the state of registry is incompetent in conducting the investigation and is unwilling or unable to delegate the investigation to another state, the ICAO might want to amend the recommended practices to allow for an overriding of the state of registry's powers," he said. Overshadowing the concerns are the fractured relationships and rivalries of the South East Asian nations. Several nations are at odds with China because it contends that it controls the South China Sea. India did not allow four Chinese ships to join the hunt in the Andaman and Nicobar archipelago because it does not want old antagonist Beijing's warships "sniffing around", The Times of India reported. "Many nations have been building up their militaries for territorial integrity, but when accidents happen, effective co-ordination does not happen," Oh said. Liu Xia, an international relations professor at Shanghai Jiaotong University, wrote in the China Science Daily that China should set up a "joint rescue centre" with its neighbours. "China has to make some new initiatives in overseas rescue efforts as a major nation and out of consideration of its international strategic needs," Liu wrote. Oh said revamping the ICAO framework or setting up a joint rescue centre could help boost humanitarian co-operation, but the contentious issue of which nation had bigger influence should be settled. Usually nations that have invested more money and technology would demand a bigger say, and that could be awkward if China made such a demand in the MH370 case. Many Asian nations are suspicious of China's growing military might. "A proper mechanism should be put in place to avoid a single nation from having overwhelming influence," Oh said. David Newbery, an accredited accident investigator with the International Federation of Airline Pilots' Association, said while the search was "politically tricky", the ICAO framework was sufficient. "The incident is an unusual and unprecedented case and there is no need to change the framework just for this," he said. | malaysia.airlines.flight.137 |@lemmatized malaysia:1 airline:2 flight:2 put:3 un:3 search:7 agency:2 protocol:2 test:1 nation:13 hover:1 disputed:1 water:2 fragile:2 security:1 zone:1 southern:1 indian:1 ocean:1 seem:1 like:2 giant:1 game:1 risk:1 united:2 charge:1 multi:1 national:2 rescue:5 operation:2 late:1 drama:1 expose:2 limit:1 expert:3 urge:1 rule:1 change:2 ensure:1 country:9 share:3 accurate:1 data:3 allow:3 great:1 access:1 naval:1 ship:3 wreckage:1 foreign:1 effort:2 involve:1 plane:2 many:3 surface:1 look:1 harmonious:1 exercise:1 behind:1 scene:2 complicate:1 sovereignty:2 dispute:1 worry:1 sensitive:1 military:3 stake:1 effectiveness:1 year:1 old:2 international:6 civil:1 aviation:1 organisation:2 define:1 air:1 traffic:1 investigation:7 incident:2 current:1 joint:3 mechanism:2 say:10 oh:4 ei:1 sun:1 senior:1 fellow:1 rajaratnam:1 school:1 study:1 singapore:1 whole:1 saga:1 show:1 still:1 territorial:2 concern:2 humanitarian:2 need:3 want:4 others:1 know:1 radar:1 coverage:1 accident:4 handle:2 link:1 disaster:2 icao:4 framework:4 case:3 outside:1 specific:1 jurisdiction:1 nearest:1 provide:1 assistance:1 respond:1 request:1 register:1 mission:1 vague:1 stipulate:1 happen:3 primary:1 investigating:1 little:1 expertise:1 responsibility:1 carry:1 big:3 good:1 equip:1 perhaps:1 one:1 direct:1 involvement:1 magnitude:1 appear:1 overwhelm:2 malaysian:1 official:1 give:2 confusing:1 contradictory:1 information:1 path:1 communication:1 boeing:1 china:8 home:1 passenger:1 especially:1 frustrate:1 james:1 fry:1 law:1 university:2 hong:1 kong:1 body:1 strong:1 co:3 ordination:2 role:1 delegate:2 part:1 another:2 mutual:1 consent:1 state:3 registry:2 incompetent:1 conduct:1 unwilling:1 unable:1 might:2 amend:1 recommended:1 practice:1 overriding:1 power:1 overshadow:1 fractured:1 relationship:1 rivalry:1 south:2 east:1 asian:2 several:1 odds:1 contend:1 control:1 sea:1 india:2 four:1 chinese:1 join:1 hunt:1 andaman:1 nicobar:1 archipelago:1 antagonist:1 beijing:1 warship:1 sniff:1 around:1 time:1 report:1 build:1 integrity:1 effective:1 liu:2 xia:1 relation:1 professor:1 shanghai:1 jiaotong:1 write:2 science:1 daily:1 set:2 centre:2 neighbour:1 make:2 new:1 initiative:1 overseas:1 major:1 consideration:1 strategic:1 revamp:1 could:2 help:1 boost:1 contentious:1 issue:1 influence:2 settle:1 usually:1 invest:1 money:1 technology:1 would:1 demand:2 awkward:1 suspicious:1 grow:1 proper:1 place:1 avoid:1 single:1 david:1 newbery:1 accredited:1 investigator:1 federation:1 pilot:1 association:1 politically:1 tricky:1 sufficient:1 unusual:1 unprecedented:1 |@ngramms malaysia_airline_flight:1 zone_search:1 southern_indian_ocean:1 united_nation:2 search_rescue:2 search_wreckage:1 search_effort:1 ship_plane:1 civil_aviation:1 air_traffic:1 international_study:1 show_country:1 put_national:1 radar_coverage:1 accident_investigation:1 respond_request:1 investigation_carry:1 malaysian_official:1 flight_path:1 boeing_china:1 international_law:1 south_east:1 china_sea:1 chinese_ship:1 join_hunt:1 joint_rescue:2 china_make:2 china_grow:1 put_place:1 accident_investigator:1 unprecedented_case:1 |
malaysia.airlines.flight.71 | This Is the Country That's Spent the Most Searching for MH370 Which countries are footing the bill? Though Malaysian officials said on Monday that the country has spent $8.6 million to locate MH370, and will split costs with Australia in the next phase of the search, estimates of expenditures by other countries indicate that Malaysia has thus far spent relatively little. Local media sources estimated that Vietnam had spent $8 million in the initial search phases, according to Reuters, though Vietnamese officials have not confirmed this statistic. If true, then Malaysia has spent only about 7% more than Vietnam, which scaled back its search efforts four days after the plane disappeared. Australia is estimated to have spent the most in the MH370 search: over $43 million, the Sydney Morning Herald reported on Monday. The U.S has spent $11.4 million, officials at the Pentagon told NBC in April. Chinese officials have not disclosed the amount the country has spent, though Chinese warships are estimated to cost at least $100,000 per day to operate. Another 22 countries have contributed to the search efforts. According to the Convention on International Civil Aviation, a country is required to assist distressed aircrafts in its territory, and the country where the aircraft is registered is granted the opportunity to help, too. | malaysia.airlines.flight.71 |@lemmatized country:8 spend:7 searching:1 foot:1 bill:1 though:3 malaysian:1 official:4 say:1 monday:2 million:4 locate:1 split:1 cost:2 australia:2 next:1 phase:2 search:5 estimate:4 expenditure:1 indicate:1 malaysia:2 thus:1 far:1 spent:1 relatively:1 little:1 local:1 medium:1 source:1 vietnam:2 initial:1 accord:2 reuters:1 vietnamese:1 confirm:1 statistic:1 true:1 scale:1 back:1 effort:2 four:1 day:2 plane:1 disappear:1 sydney:1 morning:1 herald:1 report:1 u:1 pentagon:1 tell:1 nbc:1 april:1 chinese:2 disclose:1 amount:1 warship:1 least:1 per:1 operate:1 another:1 contribute:1 convention:1 international:1 civil:1 aviation:1 require:1 assist:1 distressed:1 aircraft:2 territory:1 register:1 grant:1 opportunity:1 help:1 |@ngramms country_spend:2 spend_million:3 cost_australia:1 phase_search:1 local_medium:1 initial_search:1 official_confirm:1 search_effort:2 plane_disappear:1 chinese_official:1 day_operate:1 civil_aviation:1 |
premier.league.126 | Where the Premier League's players come from In the past two decades, the composition of England's top-flight teams has changed dramatically. At the start of the 1989-90 season, leading clubs like Arsenal and Manchester United boasted just one or two regular first-team players who were born outside the United Kingdom. Now, Premier League teams have, on average, 13 foreign-born stars within their ranks. Use the interactive world map above to explore the birthplaces of players in all the current Premier League squads, and compare them with the same teams' players from the start of the 1989-90 season - then find out more about each team below. Twenty years ago, defending champions Arsenal had just two players born outside the UK on their books: Icelandic midfielder Sigurdur Jonsson and Irish forward Niall Quinn. Jonsson made barely a handful of appearances before leaving Highbury in 1992, while Quinn was soon to sign for Manchester City. Liverpool, eventual title-winners that season, had an unusually large number of foreign-born players in their 1989-90 squad. Kenny Dalglish's side featured five players born outside the UK: John Barnes (Jamaica), Bruce Grobbelaar (South Africa), Glenn Hysen (Sweden), Jan Molby (Denmark) and Steve Staunton (Republic of Ireland). But they were the exception. Teams were far more likely to boast just one or two players born outside the UK and, in many cases (such as Manchester City's David Oldfield and Chelsea's Tony Dorigo), those players were British nationals who happened to have been born abroad. Two decades ago, the teams making up this year's Premier League could only boast 12 players born outside the Commonwealth between them. Twenty years later, more than half of the Premier League's clubs could field an entire starting line-up of foreign-born players. Liverpool now have just three UK-born first-team stars in Jamie Carragher, Steven Gerrard and Glen Johnson, with other British talents like Jay Spearing making only occasional European appearances to date. Anfield is home to 20 foreign-born players with a strong first-team claim, while Arsenal can boast 23, as opposed to four Brits, all aged under 21. Teams recently promoted to the top flight have the fewest foreign-born players in their first-team squads - Burnley have seven, Wolves have eight, as do Stoke, who gained promotion a year earlier, while Birmingham have nine. West Ham are also at the lower end of the spectrum, with nine foreign-born players, but at the time of writing this still comprised almost half of the 21 first-team players at Gianfranco Zola's disposal. You can find out more about your team below. Remember that the data focuses on place of birth, not nationality. ARSENAL 1989-90: 19 players born in UK, two born abroad 2009-10: Four players born in UK, 23 born abroad Jack Wilshere Jack Wilshere is one of Arsenal's UK-born youngsters Jonsson and Quinn, mentioned above, were as exotic as it got for the Gunners 20 years ago. Arsenal could almost have put out a starting line-up featuring only players born in the London area. By contrast, in February 2005, manager Arsene Wenger became the first in English football to field a matchday squad lacking any English players. The current squad's UK-born talents - Theo Walcott, Aaron Ramsey, Kieran Gibbs and Jack Wilshere - are all under 21 years old. Points on the map 2009-10: Carlos Vela, who waited more than three years for his first Arsenal goal (and two of those waiting for a work permit), is Mexican. Brazilians Denilson and Eduardo hail from Sao Paulo and Rio respectively. There are three imports from West Africa - Emmanuel Eboue, Johan Djourou and Alex Song, while Andrey Arshavin was born in St Petersburg, Russia. In full: Almunia (Spain), Arshavin (Russia), Bendtner (Denmark), Clichy (France), Denilson (Brazil), Diaby (France), Djourou (Ivory Coast), Eboue (Ivory Coast), Eduardo (Brazil), Fabianski (Poland), Fabregas (Spain), Gallas (France), Gibbs (Lambeth, UK), Mannone (Italy), Nasri (France), Ramsey (Caerphilly, UK), Rosicky (Czech Rep), Sagna (France), Senderos (Switzerland), Silvestre (France), Song (Cameroon), Traore (France), Van Persie (Netherlands), Vela (Mexico), Vermaelen (Belgium), Walcott (Stanmore, UK), Wilshere (Stevenage, UK). 1989-90: The only two born outside the UK are Jonsson (Akranes, Iceland) and Quinn (Perrystown, Ireland). Within the UK the vast majority are concentrated around London, but the trio visible in the North East are Neil Heaney, Brian Marwood and Kevin Richardson. In full: Adams (Romford, UK), Bould (Stoke, UK), Caesar (Tottenham, UK), Campbell (Lambeth, UK), Cole (Nottingham, UK), Davis (Dulwich, UK), Dixon (Manchester, UK), Groves (Bow, UK), Hayes (Walthamstow, UK), Heaney (Middlesbrough, UK), Jonsson (Iceland), Lukic (Chesterfield, UK), Marwood (Seaham, UK), Merson (Harlesden, UK), O'Leary (Stoke Newington, UK), Quinn (Ireland), Richardson (Newcastle, UK), Rocastle (Lewisham, UK), Smith (Bromsgrove, UK), Thomas (Lambeth, UK), Winterburn (Arley, UK). Back up to list of teams ASTON VILLA 1989-90: 19 players born in UK, three born abroad 2009-10: 18 players born in UK, 12 born abroad Nigel Callaghan Aston Villa's Nigel Callaghan was born in Singapore in 1962 Dwight Yorke made his Villa debut towards the end of the 89/90 season, as one of three foreign-born players in Graham Taylor's side. Another new arrival, Denmark's Kent Nielsen, and Singapore-born Nigel Callaghan were the other two. This season, Martin O'Neill has plenty of players with first-team credentials at his disposal, but 18 of the 30 we have listed remain UK-born, including five from the West Midlands. The 2009-10 Villa squad is unusual in naming three US-born players: goalkeeper Brad Friedel, Friedel's back-up Brad Guzan, and youngster Eric Lichaj. Points on the map 2009-10: Guzan and Lichaj both hail from the US state of Illinois so show up almost on top of each other on the map, with Friedel, born in Ohio, slightly to the east. Togolese midfielder Moustapha Salifou and Australian duo Chris Herd and Shane Lowry, both from Perth, are named as first-team squad members on the Villa website, despite only a handful of appearances between them. In full: Agbonlahor (Birmingham, UK), Albrighton (Tamworth, UK), Baker (Birmingham, UK), Bannan (Airdrie, UK), Beye (France), Bouma (Netherlands), Carew (Norway), Cuellar (Spain), Clark (Harrow, UK), Davies (London, UK), Delfouneso (Birmingham, UK), Delph (Bradford, UK), Downing (Middlesbrough, UK), Friedel (US), Gardner (Solihull, UK), Guzan (US), Harewood (Hampstead, UK), Herd (Australia), Heskey (Leicester, UK), Lichaj (US), Lowry (Australia), Milner (Leeds, UK), O'Halloran (Ireland), Petrov (Bulgaria), Reo-Coker (Southwark, UK), Salifou (Togo), Shorey (Romford, UK), Sidwell (Wandsworth, UK), A Young (Stevenage, UK), L Young (Harlow, UK). 1989-90: Yorke is represented by a point above the town of Canaan in Tobago, just above the South American coast. Nielsen was born in Frederiksberg, Denmark, and Englishman Callaghan's birthplace was Singapore. Closer to home, Gareth Williams was born in Cowes, on the Isle of Wight. The 89/90 squad had fewer West Midlands-born players than the current team. In full: Birch (West Bromwich, UK), Blake (Nottingham, UK), Butler (Sheffield, UK), Callaghan (Singapore), Comyn (Wakefield, UK), Cowans (West Cornforth, UK), Daley (Birmingham, UK), Gage (Chiswick, UK), Gray (Withernsea, UK), Heath (Stoke, UK), McGrath (Ealing, UK), Mountfield (Liverpool, UK), Nielsen (Denmark), Olney (Luton, UK), Ormondroyd (Bradford, UK), Platt (Chadderton, UK), Price (Hereford, UK), Spink (Chelmsford, UK), Williams (Cowes, UK), Yorke (Trinidad & Tobago). Back up to list of teams BIRMINGHAM CITY 1989-90: 19 players born in UK, none born abroad 2009-10: 18 players born in UK, nine born abroad Lee Bowyer Lee Bowyer, part of an influx of British-born Birmingham players Birmingham's entire squad for the 89/90 season hailed from the UK. Most were born in the Midlands or the North West. Dougie Bell, who signed from Shrewsbury early in the campaign, was the Birmingham player farthest from his home town, having been born in Paisley. This season, boss Alex McLeish has strengthened his squad with a number of English signings over the summer, including a permanent deal for Lee Bowyer, Scott Dann from Coventry City, Roger Johnson from Cardiff City, and goalkeeper Joe Hart on loan from Manchester City. Fellow new boys Giovanny Espinoza, born on the border between Ecuador and Colombia, and Ecuadorian compatriot Christian Benitez are by some distance Birmingham's farthest-flung imports. Points on the map 2009-10: Espinoza and Benitez were born either side of the equator in South America - the former just above, the latter just below. Others easy to spot include Sweden's Seb Larsson, Pole Artur Krysiak, Germany-born Maik Taylor and Frenchman Franck Queudrue. In full: Benitez (Ecuador), Bent (Hammersmith, UK), Bowyer (Canning Town, UK), Carr (Ireland), Carsley (Birmingham, UK), Dann (Liverpool, UK), Doyle (Ireland), Espinoza (Colombia), Fahey (Ireland), Hart (Shrewsbury), Jerome (Huddersfield, UK), D Johnson (Lisburn, UK), R Johnson (Ashford, UK), Krysiak (Poland), Larsson (Sweden), McFadden (Glasgow, UK), McPike (Birmingham, UK), McSheffrey (Coventry, UK), Murphy (Hartlepool, UK), Mutch (Alvaston, UK), O'Connor (Edinburgh, UK), Parnaby (Durham, UK), Phillips (Hitchin, UK), Queudrue (France), Ridgewell (London, UK), Maik Taylor (Germany), Martin Taylor (Ashington, UK). 1989-90: Third Division outfit Birmingham had a healthy crop of locally-born players. Apart from Paisley's Bell, Welsh goalkeeper Martin Thomas and Durham-born midfielder Nigel Gleghorn, recently signed from top-flight Manchester City, were the players born farthest from St Andrew's. In full (all UK): Ashley (Birmingham), Atkins (Birmingham), Bailey (Lambeth), Bell (Paisley), Clarkson (Solihull), Deakin (Stocksbridge), Frain (Birmingham), Gleghorn (Seaham), Gordon (Stourbridge), Hopkins (Birmingham), Langley (St Helens), Matthewson (Sheffield), Overson (Kettering), Peer (Stourbridge), Roberts (Manchester), Sproson (Stoke), Tait (Sutton Coldfield), Thomas (Senghenydd), Yates (Birmingham). Back up to list of teams BLACKBURN ROVERS 1989-90: 20 players born in UK, one born abroad 2009-10: Seven players born in UK, 18 born abroad Frank Stapleton Frank Stapleton, born in Ireland, played for Blackburn in 1989 At the start of the 89/90 season, Blackburn's lone player born outside the UK was Frank Stapleton. The Irishman, then 33, had arrived at Blackburn after a short spell at French side Le Havre. Blackburn crashed out of the Second Division play-offs for the second year in a row at the end of the season. Twenty years later, Sam Allardyce's Rovers squad spans several continents, with players originating from Canada to Croatia to the Caucasus. Points on the map 2009-10: Blackburn are the only Premier League outfit with three first-team players from Australasia: Brett Emerton is from Sydney, Vince Grella was born in Melbourne and Ryan Nelsen comes from Christchurch, NZ. Rovers also have two South Africans with new signing Elrio Van Heerden, from Port Elizabeth, joining Cape Town-born Benni McCarthy, while Franco Di Santo, from Argentina, is on loan from Chelsea. In full: Andrews (Ireland), Brown (Southwark, UK), Di Santo (Argentina), Diouf (Senegal), Dunn (Blackburn, UK), Emerton (Australia), Gallagher (Glasgow, UK), Givet (France), Grella (Australia), Hoilett (Canada), Jacobsen (Denmark), Kalinic (Croatia), Khizanishvili (Georgia), McCarthy (South Africa), N'Zonzi (France), Nelsen (New Zealand), Olsson (Sweden), Pedersen (Norway), Reid (Kingston, UK), Roberts (Park Royal, UK), Robinson (Beverley, UK), Samba (France), Treacy (Ireland), Van Heerden (South Africa), Warnock (Ormskirk, UK). 1989-90: Stapleton's home town of Dublin appears on the map, with Colin Hendry the northern-most squad member having been born in the small town of Keith, in Scotland. Rovers had five more Scotland-born players in the first team that season: Ally Dawson, Ronnie Hildersley, Andy Kennedy, Alan Irvine and John Millar. In full: Atkins (Doncaster, UK), Dawson (Johnstone, UK), Finnigan (Wimbledon, UK), Garner (Boston, UK), Hendry (Keith, UK), Gennoe (Shrewsbury, UK), Gayle (Toxteth, UK), Hildersley (Kirkcaldy, UK), Kennedy (Stirling, UK), Hill (Bolton, UK), Johnrose (Preston, UK), Irvine (Glasgow, UK), May (Oldham, UK), Millar (Bellshill, UK), Oliver (Berwick, UK), Reid (Urmston, UK), Sellars (Sheffield, UK), Skinner (Manchester, UK), Stapleton (Ireland), Sulley (Camberwell, UK), Wilcox (Farnworth, UK).

But long-serving defender Nicky Hunt is the club's only real local boy, having been born in nearby Westhoughton. Ten of the 89/90 squad hailed from the North West, rising to 11 with the inclusion of Ian Stevens. Though Stevens was born in Malta, he grew up in Lancashire and was on Preston's books as a youngster. Points on the map 2009-10: Ricardo Gardner and Jlloyd Samuel come from the West Indies (Gardner, from Jamaica, is shown to the left of Samuel, from Trinidad), while Nigeria and Ghana supply Dan Shittu and Mustapha Riga respectively. Fabrice Muamba, shown slightly farther south of those two, is Congolese. Bolton's Ali Al Habsi, born in Oman on the Arabian Peninsula, is one of fewer than 25 top-flight players who are their country's sole representative in the Premier League. In full: Al Habsi (Oman), Basham (Hebburn, UK), Cahill (Sheffield, UK), Cohen (Israel), K Davies (Sheffield, UK), M Davies (Wolverhampton, UK), Davis (Clapham, UK), Elmander (Sweden), Gardner (Jamaica), Hunt (Westhoughton, UK), Jaaskelainen (Finland), Knight (Solihull, UK), McCann (Blackpool, UK), Muamba (DR Congo), A O'Brien (Harrogate, UK), J O'Brien (Ireland), Obadeyi (Birmingham, UK), Ricketts (Aylesbury, UK), Riga (Ghana), Robinson (Watford, UK), Samuel (Trinidad & Tobago), Shittu (Nigeria), Steinsson (Iceland), Taylor (Oxford, UK), Vaz Te (Portugal). 1989-90: The most obvious point is Stevens, born in the Maltese capital - Valletta - before moving to the UK. Within the UK, Mark Came hailed from Exeter in the South West, David Felgate was born in the Welsh town of Blaenau Ffestiniog, and current Hull manager Phil Brown was one of two players, alongside Tony Philliskirk, to come from the North East. In full: Brookman (Manchester, UK), Brown (South Shields, UK), Comstive (Southport, UK), Came (Exeter, UK), Chandler (Hammersmith, UK), Cowdrill (Birmingham, UK), Crombie (Lincoln, UK), Darby (Farnworth, UK), Felgate (Blaenau Ffestiniog, UK), Fisher (St Helens, UK), Hughes (Denton, UK), Jeffrey (Liverpool, UK), Philliskirk (Sunderland, UK), Reeves (Birkenhead, UK), Rose (Evesham, UK), Savage (Liverpool, UK), Stevens (Malta), Storer (Rugby, UK), Thompson (Oldham, UK).

But the Turf Moor club boast a small Scandinavian contingent and Peruvian Diego Penny, plus new Ecuadorian signing Fernando Guerrero. Two decades ago, Burnley were languishing in the Fourth Division with a team drawn almost entirely from England. Only Burnley stalwart Joe Jakub, born in Falkirk, and Welsh goalkeeper Chris Pearce came from elsewhere. Points on the map 2009-10: Goalkeeper Penny, born in Lima, is Burnley's farthest-flung first-team player, although he has been unable to dislodge another foreigner - Copenhagen-born Dane Brian Jensen - from the number one spot. David Edgar, who joined from Newcastle United in July, was born in the Canadian city of Kitchener, while new boy Guerrero comes from Ecuador's capital, Quito. In full: Alexander (Coventry, UK), Blake (Middlesbrough, UK), Caldwell (Stirling, UK), Carlisle (Preston, UK), Duff (Belfast, UK), Eagles (Hemel Hempstead, UK), Easton (Glasgow, UK), Eckersley (Salford, UK), Edgar (Canada), Elliott (Southampton, UK), Fletcher (Shrewsbury, UK), Gudjonsson (Iceland), Guerrero (Ecuador), Jensen (Denmark), Jordan (Warrington, UK), Kalvenes (Norway), McCann (Ireland), McDonald (Carnoustie, UK), Mears (Stockport, UK), Paterson (Tunstall, UK), Penny (Peru), Rodriguez (Burnley, UK), Thompson (Paisley, UK). 1989-90: Jakub and Pearce aside, the majority of Burnley's players 20 years ago came from the North West. Five of the squad were born in the Midlands, with just two - Andy Farrell (Colchester) and Brendan O'Connell (London) - coming from the South. In full (all UK): Atkinson (Otley), Davis (Birmingham), Deakin (Liverpool), Deary (Ormskirk), Eli (Bradford), Farrell (Colchester), Futcher (Chester), Gardner (Middlesbrough), Grewcock (Leicester), Hardy (Manchester), Jakub (Falkirk), McGrory (Coventry), McKay (Banbury), Measham (Barnsley), Monington (Bilsthorpe), O'Connell (Lambeth), Pearce (Newport), Smith (Leeds), White (Leicester), Williams (Liverpool). Back up to list of teams CHELSEA 1989-90: 19 players born in UK, four born abroad 2009-10: Six players born in UK, 17 born abroad Erland Johnsen Norwegian Erland Johnsen spent much of his career with Chelsea The poster boys of football's financial revolution prior to the advent of oil-rich Manchester City, Chelsea have rarely been short of foreign talent. Twenty years ago that talent largely took the form of Norwegian defender Erland Johnsen, who joined during the 89/90 season, and Dutchman Ken Monkou, born in Suriname. Today, new manager Carlo Ancelotti - himself a world away from 1989 boss Bobby Campbell - has stars from South America and the west coast of Africa at his disposal. In the absence of Argentine striker Franco Di Santo (on loan at Blackburn), Juliano Belletti, born in the western Brazilian city of Cascavel, has the birthplace farthest from Stamford Bridge. Points on the map 2009-10: Belletti is shown just to the left of Deco and Alex in Brazil, while Florent Malouda, born in French Guiana, is above them on the coast - not so far from Ken Monkou's birthplace in Suriname. The five dots in West Africa represent Didier Drogba and Salomon Kalou (both Ivory Coast), Jose Bosingwa (DR Congo), Mikel (Nigeria) and Michael Essien (Ghana). New boy Yuri Zhirkov comes from the Russian city of Tambov. In full: Alex (Brazil), Anelka (France), Ballack (Germany), Belletti (Brazil), Bosingwa (DR Congo), Carvalho (Portugal), Cech (Czech Rep), A Cole (Stepney, UK), J Cole (Islington, UK), Deco (Brazil), Drogba (Ivory Coast), Essien (Ghana), Ferreira (Portugal), Hilario (Portugal), Ivanovic (Serbia), Kalou (Ivory Coast), Lampard (Romford, UK), Malouda (French Guiana), Mancienne (Isleworth, UK), Mikel (Nigeria), Sturridge (Birmingham, UK), Terry (London, UK), Zhirkov (Russia). 1989-90: Monkou and Johnsen are easily spotted in Suriname and Norway respectively, but the mystery Australian-born star is Tony Dorigo, who was born in Melbourne. A young defender set to make his top-flight debut later in the season, by the name of Graeme Le Saux, came from the British Crown dependency of Jersey - not part of the UK. In full: Beasant (Willesden, UK), Bumstead (Rotherhithe, UK), Burley (Ayr, UK), Clarke (Saltcoats, UK), Dixon (Luton, UK), Dickens (Plaistow, UK), Dorigo (Australia), Durie (Paisley, UK), Freestone (Caerleon, UK), Hall (Croydon, UK), Hazard (Sunderland, UK), Hitchcock (Canning Town, UK), Le Saux (Jersey), Johnsen (Norway), Lee (Bristol, UK), McAllister (Falkirk, UK), Mitchell (Glasgow, UK), Monkou (Suriname), Nicholas (Newport, UK), Spackman (Romsey, UK), Stuart (Tooting, UK), C Wilson (Manchester, UK), K Wilson (Banbury, UK).

Raymond Atteveld, born in Amsterdam, is now manager of Dutch side Den Haag, and Stockholm-born Stefan Rehn co-manages IFK Gothenburg, but neither player achieved great success at Goodison Park. David Moyes retains a good-sized helping of locally-born players among his 2009/10 charges, but five continents are represented in the rest of the squad. Tim Howard is from the US, on-loan striker Jo grew up in Brazil, a number of players are of African origin and Tim Cahill was born in Sydney, Australia. Points on the map 2009-10: Carlo Nash, Tony Hibbert, Leighton Baines, Phil Jagielka, Phil Neville, Leon Osman, Jack Rodwell and James Wallace were all born in the North West. Aside from the far-flung foreign legion named above, the African stars in question are Joseph Yobo, Yakubu and Victor Anichebe (all Nigerian), and Steven Pienaar (South Africa). In full: Anichebe (Nigeria), Arteta (Spain), Baines (Kirkby, UK), Baxter (Bootle, UK), Cahill (Australia), Fellaini (Belgium), Gosling (Plymouth, UK), Hibbert (Liverpool, UK), Howard (US), Jagielka (Manchester, UK), Jo (Brazil), Lescott (Birmingham, UK), Nash (Bolton, UK), Neville (Bury, UK), Osman (Billinge), Pienaar (South Africa), Rodwell (Southport, UK), Saha (France), Vaughan (Birmingham, UK), Wallace (Liverpool, UK), Yakubu (Nigeria), Yobo (Nigeria). 1989-90: Atteveld's Dutch birthplace can be seen in the corner of the UK inset map, with Rehn up in Stockholm. Australian goalkeeper Jason Kearton was born in Ipswich, Queensland. In full: Atteveld (Netherlands), Cottee (West Ham, UK), Ebbrell (Bromborough, UK), Kearton (Australia), Keown (Oxford, UK), McCall (Leeds, UK), McDonald (Wallsend, UK), Nevin (Glasgow, UK), Newell (Liverpool, UK), Pointon (Warsop, UK), Ratcliffe (Deeside, UK), Rehn (Sweden), Sharp (Glasgow, UK), Sheedy (Builth Wells, UK), Snodin (Rotherham, UK), Southall (Llandudno, UK), Stowell (Portsmouth, UK), Watson (Liverpool, UK), Whiteside (Belfast, UK), Youds (Liverpool, UK).

The South African, born in Johannesburg, joined from Crystal Palace that summer and scored twice in some 80 appearances for the club before leaving for Preston in 1993. The Fulham first-team squad now includes an Iranian (Andranik), a South Korean (Seol Ki-Hyeon) and a Hungarian (Zoltan Gera), among many other foreign-born players. However, Fulham retain three London-born players in their senior squad: Paul Konchesky, Bobby Zamora and Chris Smalling. Points on the map 2009-10: Fulham have two players from the US state of Texas. Defender Brede Hangeland was born in Houston, although he has earned 50 caps for the Norwegian national side, and Clint Dempsey was born in the small town of Nacogdoches. The dot in Australia is goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer, who was born in Sydney, and the African members of the squad are Dickson Etuhu (Nigeria) and John Pantsil (Ghana).

Phil Brown's squad includes a number of other West African stars, plus players from South America and Australia. However, the Hull squad of 20 years ago can boast a player based farther afield - Harry Ngata. Ngata, born on New Zealand's North Island, started his career at Hull and is believed to have been the English league's first Maori player. Points on the map 2009-10: Four of the current squad were born in Africa - Olofinjana is from Nigerian capital Lagos, Daniel Cousin is from Gabon slightly to the south, George Boateng is from Ghana and Kamil Zayatte is from Guinea.

Household names like Bruce Grobbelaar, John Barnes and Jan Molby were the foreign-born stars at Anfield 20 years ago. This season, as mentioned above, the likes of Gerrard and Carragher find themselves in squad dominated by foreign stars. Rafael Benitez presides over a squad which includes three Brazilians and two Argentines. Points on the map 2009-10: Diego Cavalieri, born in Sao Paulo, Fabio Aurelio, born in Sao Carlos, and Lucas Leiva from Dourados are the three Brazilians in the squad. Emiliano Insua (Buenos Aires) and Javier Mascherano (San Lorenzo) are from Argentina. Alberto Aquilani, brought in just after Liverpool had let Xabi Alonso go to Real Madrid, is the second Italian in the squad, joining Andrea Dossena. In full: Agger (Denmark), Aquilani (Italy), Aurelio (Brazil), Babel (Netherlands), Benayoun (Israel), Carragher (Bootle, UK), Cavalieri (Brazil), Degen (Switzerland), Dossena (Italy), El Zhar (France), Gerrard (Whiston, UK), Insua (Argentina), Johnson (London, UK), Kuyt (Netherlands), Leiva (Brazil), Mascherano (Argentina), Ngog (France), Plessis (France), Reina (Spain), Riera (Spain), Skrtel (Slovakia), Spearing (Wirral, UK), Torres (Spain), Voronin (Ukraine). 1989-90: Grobbelaar was born in Durban, South Africa, whereas Barnes is represented by a dot above Kingston, where he was born, despite his later England appearances. Jan Molby hails from Kolding, in Denmark, and was joined in the 89/90 squad by fellow Scandinavian Glenn Hysen, from Gothenburg, in Sweden. Steve Staunton is Liverpool's fifth foreign-born player, from Drogheda, in Ireland.

Back up to list of teams MANCHESTER CITY 1989-90: 20 players born in UK, one born abroad 2009-10: Seven players born in UK, 16 born abroad Carlos Tevez Carlos Tevez, part of Mark Hughes' Manchester City revolution Manchester City's academy has built a fine reputation over recent seasons, but home-grown youngsters could struggle to make an impact because of the massive spending power the club now possesses. That said, Mark Hughes has invested in UK-born talent this summer in the shape of Gareth Barry and Stuart Taylor, though other signings include Kolo Toure (Ivory Coast), Roque Santa Cruz (Paraguay), Emmanuel Adebayor (Togo) and Carlos Tevez (Argentina). Two decades earlier, the academy was already going strong, with the likes of Steve Redmond, David White and Paul Lake all having graduated from an all-conquering youth team. The one player whose birthplace lay outside the UK was David Oldfield, born in Perth, Australia. Points on the map 2009-10: Mark Hughes' new-look City squad relies heavily, like other Premier League sides with big ambitions, on West Africa and South America. Aside from the new signings named above, Robinho (Brazil) and Pablo Zabaleta (Argentina) make up the South American contingent, while Nedum Onuoha (born in Nigeria) and Benjani (Zimbabwe) are African-born. In full: Adebayor (Togo), Barry (Hastings, UK), Bellamy (Cardiff, UK), Ben-Haim (Israel), Benjani (Zimbabwe), Bridge (Southampton, UK), De Jong (Netherlands), Dunne (Ireland), Garrido (Spain), Given (Ireland), Ireland (Ireland), Johnson (Manchester, UK), Kompany (Belgium), Onuoha (Nigeria), Petrov (Bulgaria), Richards (Birmingham, UK), Robinho (Brazil), Santa Cruz (Paraguay), Taylor (Romford, UK), Tevez (Argentina), Toure (Ivory Coast), Wright-Phillips (London, UK), Zabaleta (Argentina). 1989-90: Oldfield is the only non-UK-born member of the squad, while six others were born in Greater Manchester itself - Jason Beckford, Andy Hinchcliffe, Lake, Gary Megson, Ashley Ward and White. The 89/90 squad also included four players born in Northern Ireland: Gary Fleming, Michael Hughes, Neil Lennon and Gerry Taggart.

That was Mark Bosnich, born in New South Wales, who made his debut for United at the end of the season at the age of 18. This season, Sir Alex Ferguson's highest-profile signing has been an Englishman in striker Michael Owen. However, the club have also added the signatures of Ecuadorian Antonio Valencia and Frenchman Gabriel Obertan. Points on the map 2009-10: The Red Devils have players spread across five continents, with Park Ji-Sung representing Asia (born in Seoul, South Korea) and Owen Hargreaves representing North America (born in Calgary, Canada). United's squad includes a group of Eastern European players: Dimitar Berbatov (Blagoevgrad, Bulgaria), Nemanja Vidic and Zoran Tosic (Serbia), and Tomasz Kuszczak (Krosno Odrzanskie, Poland).

Finnish veteran Antti Niemi is one such recruit, as are Steve Finnan (born in Limerick, Ireland), Aaron Mokoena (Johannesburg, South Africa) and Frederic Piquionne (from New Caledonia, a France-governed island chain in the Pacific near Australia). English stars Peter Crouch, Glen Johnson and Sean Davis have departed, but nine UK-born first-team players remain. Twenty years ago, Portsmouth boss John Gregory's entire first-team squad had been born in the UK, with just two players hailing from outside England. Points on the map 2009-10: Piquionne is unusual in coming from the islands of New Caledonia, to the north-east of Australia, while fellow new boy Mokoena is represented by a dot in South Africa. Portsmouth are the only team in the Premier League with no players from either North or South America. In full: Ashdown (Reading, UK), Basinas (Greece), Begovic (Bosnia), Bouba Diop (Senegal), Campbell (Plaistow, UK), Cranie (Yeovil, UK), Distin (France), Finnan (Ireland), Hreidarsson (Iceland), Hughes (Glasgow, UK), James (Welwyn, UK), Kaboul (France), Kanu (Nigeria), Kranjcar (Croatia), Mokoena (South Africa), Mullins (Reading, UK), Mvuemba (France), Niemi (Finland), Nugent (Liverpool, UK), Piquionne (New Caledonia), Primus (Forest Gate, UK), Utaka (Nigeria), Wilson (Belfast, UK). 1989-90: The only two 89/90 players born outside England were both Scottish: Kenny Black from Glasgow, and Graeme Hogg from Aberdeen. Pompey had a number of players who hailed from the corridor between London and the coast, particularly the unlikely sporting hub of Basingstoke, home to Mark Kelly, Lee Sandford and Kit Symons. In full (all UK): Aspinall (Wigan), Awford (Worcester), Ball (Hastings), Black (Glasgow), Chamberlain (Stoke), Connor (Leeds), Fillery (Mitcham), Gosney (Southampton), Hogg (Aberdeen), Kelly (Basingstoke), Knight (Balham), Kuhl (Frimley), Maguire (Hammersmith), Murray (Newcastle), Neill (Acton), Powell (Lambeth), Ross (Southampton), Sandford (Basingstoke), Symons (Basingstoke), Whittingham (Evesham), Wigley (Ashton-under-Lyne).

The vast majority of this season's foreign-born talent is concentrated in West Africa, with no fewer than four players hailing from Senegal. Back in 1989 the lone "foreigner" was Berry, a Stoke stalwart in his final season at the club. But while Berry may have been born near Rostrup, in Germany, he was a Welshman whose career began at Wolves before joining Stoke in 1982. Points on the map 2009-10: Dean Whitehead is Tony Pulis' big summer signing, an Englishman born in Abingdon, although Stoke also possess the rare beast that is a Cornish-born Premier League player in Matthew Etherington, who was born in Truro. Stoke's four Senegalese stars are Ibrahima Sonko (born in Bignona), Abdoulaye Faye (Dakar), Amdy Faye (also Dakar) and Salif Diao (Kedougou).

Cliff Carr and Nicky Morgan had probably travelled farthest as the only two Londoners, from Hackney and East Ham respectively. In full: Bamber (Prescot, UK), Barrett (Ilkeston, UK), Beagrie (Middlesbrough, UK), Beeston (Stoke, UK), Berry (Germany), Biggins (Sheffield, UK), Butler (Liverpool, UK), Carr (Hackney, UK), Cranson (Easington, UK), Fowler (Eastwood, UK), Fox (Scunthorpe, UK), Hackett (Stourbridge, UK), Henry (Houghton-le-Spring, UK), Higgins (Buxton, UK), Holmes (Stoke, UK), Kamara (Middlesbrough, UK), Morgan (East Ham, UK), Noble (Hull, UK), Palin (Worcester, UK), Scott (Radcliffe, UK), Statham (Wolverhampton, UK), Ware (Congleton, UK).

New signing Lorik Cana is one of two players with Kosovan connections to grace the Premier League. The late 1980s were an eventful time to be a Sunderland fan, as the team bounced up from the third to the first tier of English football. Their only foreign-born player at the start of the 89/90 season was Germany's Thomas Hauser, a centre forward not remembered with any great fondness at the Stadium of Light. Points on the map 2009-10: Finland's Teemu Tainio is the dot in the far north, with Cana and Hungarian goalkeeper Marton Fulop in Eastern Europe. Carlos Edwards and Kenwyne Jones both hail from Trinidad, while Sunderland have three players from the North East: Michael Kay, Grant Leadbitter and Martyn Waghorn.

Two - Kieron Brady and John MacPhail - were from Scotland, while Colin Pascoe was born in Bridgend, Wales. Hauser was born in Berlin.

Frenchman Sebastien Bassong was manager Harry Redknapp's first foreign capture of the summer, having signed Englishmen Peter Crouch, Kyle Naughton and Kyle Walker (the latter since loaned back to Sheffield United). Twenty years earlier, Nayim, born in Ceuta, a Spanish settlement on the North African coast, was probably one of the best-known foreigners in the top flight. Spurs also had two Nordic players and a Belgian in their squad at the start of the 89/90 season, but most players came from the London area. Points on the map 2009-10: Four of Spurs' current squad come from Central and South America: Heurelho Gomes (Brazil), Pascal Chimbonda (Guadeloupe), Wilson Palacios (Honduras) and Giovani dos Santos (Mexico).

However, that hasn't stopped the former Chelsea ace strengthening with foreign imports this summer, including Chilean Luis Jimenez and Swiss defender Fabio Daprela. Twenty years ago, Steve Potts was one of the league's more exotic players, the Englishman having been born in Hartford, Connecticut, in the US. However, most of his team-mates had been born within 30 miles of London, with several Scottish imports. Points on the map 2009-10: On the left of the map, Jonathan Spector (born in the US) appears to the north, while Jimenez is shown on the Chilean coast.

Jordi Gomez, signed from Espanyol, was born in Barcelona, while Hendry Thomas was born in Honduras and the inaccurately-named Jason Scotland comes from Trinidad. James McCarthy and Scott Sinclair are the UK-born additions to the squad, which, 20 years ago, featured no player born outside the UK. Wigan, in the third tier of English football at the time, drew the vast majority of their players from the North West of England. Points on the map 2009-10: Farthest-flung is South Korean international Cho Won-Hee, who made his debut towards the end of last season.

Twenty years ago, Wolves had just been promoted back to the Second Division as champions, following one of the worst periods in the team's history. Two of that side were foreign-born - South African striker and new signing John Paskin, and Floyd Streete, born in Jamaica. Points on the map 2009-10: Hahnemann was born in Seattle in the US.

premier.league.44 | Barclays nets Premier League deal Barclays has renewed its sponsorship deal with the FA Premier League in a contract worth £65.8m. The new deal will take the bank's sponsorship of the Premiership up to 2010, in a three-year extension to Barclays' current contract. The league, formed in 1992, has had a sponsor since 1993, with Barclays backing it since 2004. From 2001 until 2004, Barclaycard was the official sponsor and prior to that it was the Carling lager brand. 'Fantastic appeal' Barclays president Bob Diamond said the deal fitted the firm's expanding international business. "We all know about the fantastic appeal of the Barclays Premiership in the UK but this sponsorship also fits our international presence and aspirations particularly in Asia and continental Europe," he said. The deal will also see the bank sponsor the Premier League's official pre-season tournament, the Premier League Asia Trophy. | premier.league.44 |@lemmatized barclays:6 net:1 premier:4 league:5 deal:5 renew:1 sponsorship:3 fa:1 contract:2 worth:1 new:1 take:1 bank:2 premiership:2 three:1 year:1 extension:1 current:1 form:1 sponsor:3 since:2 back:1 barclaycard:1 official:2 prior:1 carling:1 lager:1 brand:1 fantastic:2 appeal:2 president:1 bob:1 diamond:1 say:2 fit:2 firm:1 expand:1 international:2 business:1 know:1 uk:1 also:2 presence:1 aspiration:1 particularly:1 asia:2 continental:1 europe:1 see:1 pre:1 season:1 tournament:1 trophy:1 |@ngramms premier_league:4 league_form:1 expand_international:1 |
premier.league.26 | Fifa wants 18-team Premier League Fifa is heading for a showdown with the Premier League over its 20-club size. On Thursday Fifa's Congress endorsed a proposal for Europe's top leagues to be reduced to a maximum of 18 clubs by the start of the 2007-08 season. Fifa president Sepp Blatter said: "We've been given the power to work on it. We'll do it. It'll give four more days to the international calendar." But Premier League spokesman Dan Johnson ruled out a reduction: "There's no appetite for this kind of change." Johnson added: "The only people who are going to tell us how to run the Premier League are the league's 20 member clubs' chairmen. "They are the only ones who can change the composition of the league and they are just not going to go for this - no way." Fifa's decision could also hit the Spanish, Italian, and French leagues. | premier.league.26 |@lemmatized fifa:5 want:1 team:1 premier:4 league:8 head:1 showdown:1 club:3 size:1 thursday:1 congress:1 endorse:1 proposal:1 europe:1 top:1 reduce:1 maximum:1 start:1 season:1 president:1 sepp:1 blatter:1 say:1 give:2 power:1 work:1 four:1 day:1 international:1 calendar:1 spokesman:1 dan:1 johnson:2 rule:1 reduction:1 appetite:1 kind:1 change:2 add:1 people:1 go:3 tell:1 u:1 run:1 member:1 chairman:1 one:1 composition:1 way:1 decision:1 could:1 also:1 hit:1 spanish:1 italian:1 french:1 |@ngramms premier_league:4 start_season:1 give_power:1 add_people:1 member_club:1 |
cypriot.financial.crisis.39 | Cyprus to ease citizenship requirements, attacks EU "hypocrisy" (Reuters) - Cyprus will relax requirements for citizenship, including for bank depositors who lost large amounts of money in the deal with the EU and IMF, in an effort to keep foreigners interested in investing in the island state, the president said on Sunday. Cyprus was forced to wind down one major bank and impose considerable losses on large depositors in a second bank in return for 10 billion euros in aid from the International Monetary Fund and the European Union in a move that was devastating to both Cypriots and foreign investors. Euro zone finance ministers approved the aid on Friday. In prepared remarks to Russian businesspeople in the port city of Limassol, President Nicos Anastasiades said his cabinet would this week approve the relaxation of restrictions on foreigners seeking citizenship of Cyprus, an EU member since 2004. Non-resident investors who held deposits prior to March 15, when the plan to impose losses on savers was first formulated, and who lost at least 3 million euros would be eligible to apply for Cypriot citizenship, he said. Cyprus's existing "citizenship by investment" program - similar to that of many countries - would be revised to reduce the amount of investment required to be eligible for the program to 3 million euros from the previous 10 million euros. "These decisions will be deployed in a fast-track manner," Anastasiades said in the address. Other measures were also under consideration, he said, including offering tax incentives for existing or new companies doing business in Cyprus. Anastasiades, whose center-right government has been in power for less than two months, said countries who accused Cyprus of being a money laundering hub for businesses from countries such as Russia were being hypocrites, since those same countries were now trying to lure foreign businesses away. Used to robust growth and a thriving financial services sector, Cyprus is now bracing itself for record unemployment and at least a 12 percent drop in output this year. MODEL CRUMBLES Cyprus, one of the euro zone's smallest economies, modeled itself as a competitively-taxed financial services center with a network of treaties to avoid double taxation. That model is now threatened by the fact that bailout conditions have left its two main banks crippled, but also forced Cyprus to increase its corporate tax to 12.5 percent from 10, which had been the lowest in the euro zone. The bailout, first requested in June 2012, was delayed partly because of concerns expressed by euro zone states, notably Germany, that its financial sector was opaque, thus aiding money laundering. But Cyprus was neither a money laundering hub or a tax haven, Anastasiades said. "What saddens - I refrain from using the word angers - me deeply is that since the euro group agreement was reached, some EU partners' businesses involved in the financial services industry have been preying upon our financial services sector, in order to encourage a relocation of funds into their economies," he said. It was an irony and an "absurd paradox" that the governments of those businesses claimed those funds were deposited and invested in Cyprus through illicit means. "I am a firm believer in the rules of the free market, but allow me to comment on the hypocrisy of such methods," Anastasiades said. | cypriot.financial.crisis.39 |@lemmatized cyprus:12 ease:1 citizenship:5 requirement:2 attack:1 eu:4 hypocrisy:2 reuters:1 relax:1 include:2 bank:4 depositor:2 lose:2 large:2 amount:2 money:4 deal:1 imf:1 effort:1 keep:1 foreigner:2 interested:1 invest:2 island:1 state:2 president:2 say:9 sunday:1 force:2 wind:1 one:2 major:1 impose:2 considerable:1 loss:2 second:1 return:1 billion:1 euro:9 aid:3 international:1 monetary:1 fund:3 european:1 union:1 move:1 devastate:1 cypriot:2 foreign:2 investor:2 zone:4 finance:1 minister:1 approve:2 friday:1 prepared:1 remark:1 russian:1 businesspeople:1 port:1 city:1 limassol:1 nicos:1 anastasiades:5 cabinet:1 would:3 week:1 relaxation:1 restriction:1 seek:1 member:1 since:3 non:1 resident:1 hold:1 deposit:2 prior:1 march:1 plan:1 saver:1 first:2 formulate:1 least:2 million:3 eligible:2 apply:1 exist:2 investment:2 program:2 similar:1 many:1 country:4 revise:1 reduce:1 require:1 previous:1 decision:1 deploy:1 fast:1 track:1 manner:1 address:1 measure:1 also:2 consideration:1 offer:1 tax:4 incentive:1 new:1 company:1 business:5 whose:1 center:2 right:1 government:2 power:1 less:1 two:2 month:1 accuse:1 laundering:2 hub:2 russia:1 hypocrite:1 try:1 lure:1 away:1 use:2 robust:1 growth:1 thrive:1 financial:5 service:4 sector:3 brace:1 record:1 unemployment:1 percent:2 drop:1 output:1 year:1 model:3 crumbles:1 small:1 economy:2 competitively:1 network:1 treaty:1 avoid:1 double:1 taxation:1 threaten:1 fact:1 bailout:2 condition:1 leave:1 main:1 cripple:1 increase:1 corporate:1 low:1 request:1 june:1 delay:1 partly:1 concern:1 express:1 notably:1 germany:1 opaque:1 thus:1 neither:1 launder:1 sadden:1 refrain:1 word:1 anger:1 deeply:1 group:1 agreement:1 reach:1 partner:1 involve:1 industry:1 prey:1 upon:1 order:1 encourage:1 relocation:1 irony:1 absurd:1 paradox:1 claim:1 illicit:1 mean:1 firm:1 believer:1 rule:1 free:1 market:1 allow:1 comment:1 method:1 |@ngramms attack_eu:1 amount_money:1 eu_imf:1 state_president:1 cyprus_force:1 billion_euro:1 european_union:1 euro_zone:4 finance_minister:1 port_city:1 citizenship_cyprus:1 eu_member:1 million_euro:3 cypriot_citizenship:1 exist_citizenship:1 amount_investment:1 deploy_fast:1 financial_service:4 tax_percent:1 euro_group:1 agreement_reach:1 eu_partner:1 |
samsung.galaxy.s5.2 | Samsung Galaxy S5 camera review Connect smartphone reviews are written with the needs of photographers in mind. We focus on camera features, performance and image quality. The S5 is the latest model in Samsung's line of Galaxy S flagship smartphones and replaces last year's Galaxy S4. The new model's camera comes with a slightly larger 1/2.6-inch CMOS BSI sensor and an increased pixel-count of 16MP (up from the S4's 13MP) but the maximum aperture remains unchanged at F2.2. Like its phablet sibling the Galaxy Note III, the S5 offers 4K video capture but has to make do without an optical image stabilization system. Samsung also claims to have improved AF speeds by implementing a phase-detection system, similar to what's being used in digital SLRs. Other new imaging features include real-time HDR processing , a new camera user interface and the Selective Focus feature that allows you to blur the background by taking two pictures at different focus settings and merging them, similar to Background Defocus on the Sony Xperia Z2 or Nokia's Refocus app. In terms of design, with its rounded corners, metal band around the edges and the faux-leather back, the S5 looks like a cross between Galaxy S4 and Note III. However, the new model is also dust and water resistant with an IP67 rating, which means you can keep snapping in adverse weather conditions. As you would expect from a Galaxy S device the non-camera components are top-notch, too. Android 4.4.2 is powered by a Qualcomm quad-core 2.5 GHz Snapdragon S801 processor and 2GB of RAM. Images can be stored on 16 or 32GB of internal memory or microSD-card and the 1080p Super AMOLED screen measures a generous 5.1 inches. Read on to find out if and how all the high-end specifications translate into mobile photography performance. Key Photographic / Video Specifications 1/2.6-inch 16MP BSI CMOS sensor F2.2 31mm focal length (35mm equivalent) 4K video recording 2MP front camera Slow motion video Electronic image stabilization Other Specifications Qualcomm Snapdragon S801 2.5GHz quad-core processor 2GB RAM 16/32GB internal memory, microSD slot up to 64GB Android 4.4.2 (Kitkat) 5.1-inch Super AMOLED screen (1920 x 1080) Dust and water resistant (IP67) NFC Pulse meter 2800mAh Battery Our 11-page review We've considered every aspect of the Samsung Galaxy S5, with the photographer in mind. We examined the user interface of the native camera app and its special features. We experimented with the camera's performance when taking stills and video, and had a play with the device's many special feature modes. Click any of the links below for more information of specific functions and continue to our conclusion for a final summary of our findings. In terms of hardware the Samsung Galaxy S5 offers some of the best you can find in a 2014 flagship smartphone. The device is powered by one of Qualcomm's currently most powerful SoCs, a 2.5 GHz Snapdragon S801 quad-core unit. The S5 offers 2GB of RAM and users can pick between versions with 16 or 32 GB of storage. If you need more space for your images there is a microSD card slot, too. The Android 4.4.2 OS is controlled via a 5.1-inch 1080p Super AMOLED touchscreen that offers very good viewing angles and brightness. Compared to the predecessor the screen has grown slightly but comes at the same 1080p resolution. A couple of recent high-end devices, the Oppo Find 7 and LG G3, haven overtaken their Samsung rival in this respect by offering qHD screens with the staggering resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels. Also worth mentioning are the fingerprint sensor and microUSB 3.0 port. The Galaxy S5 does not disappoint in terms of camera hardware either. The 1/2.6-inch CMOS BSI sensor has not quite the same dimensions as the 1/2.3-inch sensors in most consumer level compact cameras or Sony's Xperia Z1 and Z2 but is larger than the tiny 1/3-inch sensors used in most smartphones including the S5's predecessors. At F2.2 the maximum aperture remains unchanged though and the new model still does not come with an optical image stabilization system. In terms of AF Samsung uses a new approach (at least among smartphone makers) by adding phase detection sensors to the usual contrast detect system. With its rounded corners, metal band around the edges and the faux-leather back, the S5 looks pretty much like a smaller version of the Galaxy Note III phablet and as such a little bland. The S5 does not have the minimalist look nor the premium feel of metal and glass dominated devices, such as the HTC One M8 or Sony's Xperia Z models but still gives you the impression of being a solid device. It's also water- and dust resistant with an IP67 rating, which allows you to take photos in the rain or on the beach without having to worry about your expensive device. Like most current high-end Android phones the S5 is quite large and if you have smaller hands probably too large for one-handed operation. Nevertheless when using the device as a camera and holding it with two hands it feels natural and thanks to their positioning there is very little danger of obscuring lens or flash with a finger. The S5 is one of the few Android phones that still offers a physical home button. We prefer the on-screen versions of the competition but this is arguably a matter of personal taste. Additionally you get the power button on the right and volume rockers on the left side of the device but no dedicated two-way shutter button. The Galaxy S5 does not have a physical shutter button to open the camera app, so you have to tap on the camera icon or you can activate a camera short-cut on the lock-screen via the settings menu. The latter is not quite as quick as the shutter-button solution on the Sony Xperia Z devices or the Nokia Lumias but still gives you easy access to the camera. The camera app opens swiftly and once inside things are pretty straightforward. You press the shutter button on the right to capture an image and tap on the screen to focus. If that's one step too many for you, 'tap to take pics' can be activated in the settings menu. Exposure is not linked to the focus point, so you cannot influence the brightness of an image by focusing on a specifically dark or bright area of the preview image. That wouldn't be much of a problem if the S5' exposure compensation option would not be buried deep in the menu. However, you have to enter the gear menu and then scroll down all the way to the bottom before you'll find the option. This process is more long winded than you'd wish but you can obtain better control over exposure on the Galaxy S5 by installing a third-party camera app, such as Camera FV-5 or Google's own Camera app. It seems the S5 camera app wants to offer anything you could possibly do with a smartphone camera in one single app. However, despite the large number shooting modes and options, the control structure is quite well thought-out and pretty intuitive. There is a column of four shortcuts on the left side of the screen and you can pull any of the option tiles in the settings menu to one of the shortcut slots to customize your UI. The default shortcuts are front/rear camera switch, selective focus, HDR mode and the menu. You can also change the order of items within the settings menu. Here you've got access to ISO, video mode and digital image stabilization among other parameters. The Mode button below the virtual shutter button gives you access to the S5's special shooting modes that we'll talk more about on the features pages in this review. Overall Samsung's newly redesigned camera app offers a lot of features and functions and is well structured, but those who want exposure compensation or a simpler approach to smartphone picture taking might want to look for alternatives in the Google Play Store. Features The Galaxy S5's camera app comes with many features and functions that we've already seen on the Galaxy S4, so in this section we have focused on the most important and new ones. To make the S4's already very busy user interface not feel even more cluttered Samsung has decided to remove a few of the old modes, such as Animated Photo, Sports Shot and Sound & Shot, and make them available as optional downloads for those who really want or need them. Some modes, such as the new Selective Focus, can be found in the menu, others are accessible through the mode button. Read on to find out how they performed in our test. Rich Tone (HDR Mode) The Galaxy S5's HDR mode works in a similar way as on most other devices. The camera takes three frames at varying exposures in quick succession and combines them into one 'High Dynamic Range' image. The S5's 1/2.6-inch sensor is a little larger than the tiny 1/3-chips on most smartphones but its dynamic range is, compared to most dedicated cameras, still limited, so this feature can be a life saver when shooting high contrast scenes. Overall the S5's HDR mode is one of the best we've seen so far and there is a strong case to be made for leaving it on all the time. There are no parameters to play with but the S5 Rich Tone mode produces very natural results with additional highlight and shadow detail, adapting its intensity to the scene automatically. In the first sample below Rich Tone recovers some detail in the sky and lifts the shadows just a touch, without giving the scene an artificial look. In the sample below the impact on highlight detail is only minor but the dark shadows inside the abandoned building are lifted moderately to reveal additional shadow detail. Shadow noise is well-controlled and the end results still look natural. When looking at the full-size image you can see that there is no ghosting on the cyclist in the scene and generally subjects that are moving at moderate speed are dealt with very well. We hardly came across any ghosting or blurring in the many HDR images we shot for this review. The intensity of the effect appears to be adapted automatically depending on the scene. In the sample image below the strong back light caused the camera to meter for the sky and underexpose the lawn and building in the lower half of the frame. Rich Tone detects this underexposure and lifts the shadows quite extremely. Nevertheless the end results is more than usable, with decent detail and noise levels. Panorama The panorama app seems to be working in a very similar way to the Galaxy S4's and the results are equally impressive. Image size varies between shots but landscape panos tend to be around 20,000 pixels wide and around 3000 pixels tall. Vertical panoramas aren't as wide but, as you'd expect, a little taller. In any case they offer more image detail than most other panorama modes we have seen. Stitching and exposure are typically fine too, but occasionally you'll find some ghosting on moving subjects, or, like in the first sample below, a subject that appears twice in the scene. That said, overall the S5's panorama mode is dealing well with motion in the scene and its image output is suitable for large format printing. You can shoot both in landscape or portrait orientation and if you don't want or need to capture a full 360-degree panorama, you can press the shutter button any time to stop. The app will then create a panorama with the images you have recorded up to that point. Dual Shot and front camera The Galaxy S4 was the first smartphone capable of recording images from its front- and rear cameras simultaneously and of course its successor comes with the same feature. Dual Shot mode allows you to capture images with both cameras at the same time and create a picture-in-picture effect with a variety of frames to surround your front-facing camera capture. Like on the S4 the default is a stamp frame that creates a postcard effect when combined with a scenic vista. The size of the inserted image and frame is adjustable, in the sample below we are showing the maximum dimension. The front camera offers a fairly standard 1080p Full-HD resolution which is in line with most of the competition but cannot keep up with the 5MP and 8MP equivalents in the HTC One M8 and Huawei Ascend P7 respectively. As you would expect the image quality is far inferior to the rear camera module, with a lot of detail blurring through noise reduction and noise in low light, but it's good enough for the occasional selfie or Dual Shot image in decent light. Night Mode The Galaxy S5's Night Mode avoids intrusive noise by blending a quick burst of frames into one image and averaging out the noise. The mode works in a very similar way to what we've seen on previous models but it appears this latest version has slightly improved at dealing with moving subjects. The latter can still create artifacts but at least on slow moving subjects, such as walking persons, ghosting is hardly noticeable. Nevertheless it is still recommendable to avoid any camera shake while capturing the burst. While on the S4 with its maximum ISO of 1000 one of the mode's main advantages was the ability to still achieve a decent exposure in very low light, on the Galaxy S5 with its higher maximum ISO of 2000 this is less of an issue. You still get the benefit of cleaner images though, just keep in mind that you pay for the cleanliness with a total lack of fine detail and a slight image softness, as can be seen in the crops below. Features cont. Selective Focus It appears on the current generation of smartphone cameras some kind of fake narrow-depth-of-field effect is a must-have feature. Nokia started it all with the Refocus app, Sony's Xperia Z2 has Selective Focus and HTC even opted for a hardware solution with the Duo Cam. However, even if you have an older or lower-spec phone you don't have to live without this kind of effect as it is now also available in the latest version of the Google Camera App that can be downloaded free of charge on the Google Play Store and runs on most devices. So far none of those variations of the same thing, even the HTC hardware solution, have been able to convince us. Rather than creating a smooth fall-off in sharpness they introduce a very abrupt transition and the foreground/background separation tends to lack precision, giving the images an artificial look. Sadly the Samsung version, also called Selective Focus, is no different . The mode takes a series of images at different focus settings and then lets you choose a focus point after capture and save your preferred image. According to instructions you should not be any farther from the subject than 1.5 feet and the background should be at least three times that distance from the subject. In reality the mode simply doesn't work most of the time, even if you stick to the recommended subject/background distances. I tried the feature with living subjects and static scenes but almost always my efforts were followed by a 'Subject not detected' message which means the effect could not be applied. The sample above is one of the few that actually let me choose the focus point. As you can see I was able to set the focus on the Nowitzki action figure in the foreground and the garden scenery in the background. However, the image would not let me select the Pan Focus option. All in all most users won't be too bothered by the limited functionality of the mode but given it is there, Samsung should make sure it improves its operation with a software update at some point. Virtual Tour Virtual Tour is another new feature and lets you create an interactive virtual tour by combining several still shots using pans, zooms and fades to create smooth transitions. The app also guides you in terms of framing of those shots. The end result can be viewed in an interactive Google Streetview-like fashion in the gallery or can be saved as a video. You'll have to have a specific use case for this feature but it's a good way of virtually showing you around a home, office or other space. Below you can enjoy a video that was taken at my parent's house, showing the route from the terrace into my first floor temporary office space. As you can see the transitions and stitching are far from perfect but in certain circumstances that don't require professional grade quality the feature could be useful and preferable to a standard video. Filter effects There is a plethora of filter apps available on the Google Play Store but for those who want the feature out of the box Samsung includes a range of effects in the default camera app. There are twelve filters in total and most of the effects we've seen before on previous Samsung devices. The list of filters can be customized, so you don't always have to scroll through the entire list if you only tend to use a few of the available effects. The filters are all pretty standard fare and don't offer any control over the strength of the effect. They have the advantage of live preview and are fun to play with but most users will likely find third-party editing apps, such as Pixlr Express or Snapseed, that give you more control, more useful. Then of course there is also Instagram and its various clones. Shot & More The Shot & More mode combines the Best Photo, Best Face, Drama Shot and Eraser features we already know from the Galaxy S4 and adds Panning Shot to the mix, to make for a less cluttered user interface. In Shot & More mode the camera takes a burst of shots and then offers a variety of options, depending on the moving subjects that have been captured during the burst. Best Shot suggests the best image from your burst but also allows you to pick your favorite manually. Best Face does the same for images with human subjects, putting a focus on open eyes and smiles. Drama shot allows you to create an action composite image and Eraser to delete unwanted objects that moved through the scene while you were capturing the burst. Finally, Panning Shot identifies moving subjects and allows you to apply a blur effect to the rest of the image, giving it a fake panning effect. Overall the Shot & More features have a rather gimmicky character and the results are never quite predictable. They are fun to play and experiment with for a while but most mobile photographers won't use them on an ongoing basis. Gallery App The Samsung Galaxy S5's Gallery App is more comprehensive than most default Gallery apps. It comes with a good selection of editing options, including selection tools for selective editing of image areas. There are a few new filter options, including some light streak effects, but overall the app is similar to what we've seen on previous Samsung devices. The app offers all the standard editing options such as rotation, cropping and a range of color and tonal modifications, but you also get a number of filter effects, frames and the option to draw on the images or put "stickers" on them. You can also share images to social networks, other devices or other apps. Overall the gallery app offers a lot to play with and is well worth a closer look if you haven't found your favorite editing app in the Google Play Store yet. Image Quality and Performance With its cutting edge hardware and latest Android version the Galaxy S5's performance is impressive all around. Apps open up quickly, scrolling and swiping is very smooth and processing tasks, for example in editing apps, take very little time. In our test only the gallery app seemed a bit sluggish at times but Samsung has fixed that with a firmware update, so make sure you have the latest software version running if your gallery seems a little slow. With Burst Shot activated in the settings the camera captures 30 shots in approximately two seconds. While this is quite an impressive number, as usual you don't have any control over shutter speed, so in low light you will inevitably end up with motion blur due to a slow shutter. This makes the mode pretty much unsuitable for the capture of indoor action. The performance of the new phase detect AF system is reasonably fast in good light but not noticeably quicker than the competition with more conventional systems. However, in low light the S5 AF is one of the best, with fast and reliable performance even in very dim conditions. We found very few focus errors in our hundreds of samples shot while working on this review. It's also worth mentioning that the S5's battery performance is quite impressive, taking us easily through the day, even with heavy use. However, not only does the battery last long, it also charges quicker than most other devices we have used. So even if you do run out of juice on the Samsung, it'll take little time with the charger plugged in for you to get going again. With its 16MP 1/2.6-inch BSI CMOS sensor the Galaxy S5 offers one of the most intriguing camera specs among current smartphones. Read on to find out how the high pixel count and slightly larger than usual sensor translate into real-life image quality. Daylight, Low ISO In good light the Samsung Galaxy S5 produces some of the best image output we have seen from a smartphone. Despite some blurring of fine low-contrast detail the S5 captures excellent detail with just the right amount of sharpening. At a 100% view the images look crisp without being oversharpened. Some grain can be seen in shadow areas or areas of plain color but it's all within well acceptable smartphone levels and at low ISOs noise reduction is less intrusive than on most other mobile devices. The high pixel count makes the Samsung's images more vulnerable to lens imperfections though and you'll find some softness towards the edges of the frame. The images are free of artifacts, chromatic aberrations are well-controlled by the JPEG-engine and we could not find any moiré patterns in our samples. Colors tend to be a touch saturated and images are usually well exposed, although the HDR mode can be a useful tool in high-contrast scenes. The samples below show how much detail is captured by the Galaxy S5 camera. There is some smearing of detail in the distant foliage but overall the levels of detail are excellent for a smartphone. In the right image you can see some of the edge softness mentioned above. Both images below show again good detail but on the left the S5's relatively strong saturation leads to an unnaturally warm rendering of skin tone. In the right image you can see that in bright and contrasty conditions the Samsung is, like most smartphone, prone to highlight clipping. These are two more samples to demonstrate the level of detail captured by the S5 camera. For flower shots, like the image on the right, captured in Macro mode, the high saturation works better than for portraits. Low Light, High ISO In lower light the Samsung Galaxy S5 again performs well. Good color is maintained across the ISO range and well-balanced noise reduction means that, while grain is visible at all sensitivities, it never becomes too intrusive or turns into ugly looking "noise-blotches". Traces of chroma noise are visible at large magnifications from early on but overall color noise is again well-controlled across the ISO range. The S5's high megapixel count also means that when images are down-sampled for web use or social sharing noise is averaged out, making even the ISO 2000 exposures usable for those purposes. Like on most smartphones the S5 uses very slow shutter speeds in low light to keep the ISO down. Without an optical image stabilization system this often leads to a slight softness through camera shake. If you need a 100% sharp low light shot it is therefore always recommendable to shoot a batch of images to increase your chances of having at least one good one. For the indoor portrait below the S5 only has to raise the ISO to 200 but increased noise levels are noticeable in the shadow areas if you view at 100%. Overall the image is still pretty clean though. The bigger problem is the slight overall softness caused by camera shake and the relatively slow shutter speed. In situations like this we would prefer the camera to opt for a slightly higher ISO and accept a touch more noise in return for a shake-free image. The ISO 320 image on the right shows some loss of detail at 100% but looks clean with pleasant colors when viewed at only slightly smaller sizes. Shadow noise and blurring of detail through noise reduction becomes more obvious as the ISO increases but again you have to zoom pretty far into the images below before those imperfections become too intrusive. The camera used a shutter speed of 1/17 sec for both images which poses a high risk of camera shake. Both pictures are the sharpest out of a series including various slightly blurry exposures. Compared to the output of many other smartphones the Galaxy S5's output still looks decent at the highest ISOs. There is a lot of grain but still some fine detail left. Edge sharpness is still good and chroma noise well under control. Color is maintained very well. For the image on the left the camera selected an unusually high shutter speed of 1/100 sec which freezes the motion of the moving subjects but also pushes the ISO to 1250. Nevertheless the image is still more than usable on the web or in social media. The same is true for the right image for the capture of which the S5 pushed ISO to its highest setting, ISO 2000. Flash Tiny LED flash units mean that flash use on smartphone cameras is generally best avoided. Low output power often leads to noisy images and blurry subjects. The Samsung Galaxy S5 is no exception but still performs at least slightly better than many competing devices. Its LED flash provides enough power to keep the ISO relatively low, even in very low light, and by doing so can reduce image noise and maintain more detail than many competitors. As you can see in the samples below skin tones are rendered a little warm but that's arguably preferable to the cool color casts you'll get from some other devices. Red-eye effect is very well controlled as well. As with most smartphones the only control over flash exposure you have is to switch it on, off or into Auto mode. The shutter speed of 1/30 sec is not going to freeze any fast motion but should help you get reasonably sharp images in most circumstances. Summary The Galaxy S5 is Samsung's latest flagship smartphone and successor to the Galaxy S4. It comes with a 16MP BSI CMOS sensor, an F2.2 maximum aperture, 4K video capture and phase detection AF, but has to make do without an optical image stabilization system. Android 4.4 is powered by the latest generation Qualcomm quad-core 2.5 GHz Snapdragon S801 processor and 2GB of RAM. The Super AMOLED screen measures 5.1 inches and comes with the same 1080p resolution as the S4. You can choose between 16GB or 32GB versions and storage can be expanded via a microSD slot. With a DxOMark Mobile score of 79 the Samsung Galaxy S5 shares the number one spot in the DxOMark smartphone rankings with the Sony Xperia Z2, placing itself in front of the Nokia 808 and the Sony Xperia Z1. The DxOMark team reports that the Galaxy S5 images show 'good auto-exposure, pleasant, rich and realistic colors, good white balance, low noise levels in low light conditions and good sharpness and details in the center of the frame.' The testers found 'almost no color fringing or ringing' and liked the 'good image quality with flash.' On the downside there is 'a noticeable loss of detail in low light conditions and non-uniform sharpness across the image field.' The team also found the AF not to be always accurate in Auto Mode. In video mode the Galaxy S5 produces the 'best mobile video tested to date', with 'good autofocus and good textures.' On the downside there are 'visible color non-uniformities in some light conditions.' Still Photography Color, Exposure and Contrast The DxOMark team found that the Samsung Galaxy S5 images show 'good auto-exposure even in difficult outdoor situations, pleasant, rich and realistic colors in all light conditions and overall good white balance.' However, the testers also found that 'in high dynamic range scenes, images can be slightly burnt out' and 'with some indoor tungsten lighting a slight color shading can be noticed.' Overall DxOMark awarded the Samsung Galaxy S5 scores of: 4.5 out of 5 for Exposure 4.5 out of 5 for White Balance accuracy 4.0 out of 5 for Color shading in low light* 4.0 out of 5 for Color shading in bright light* 3.0 out of 5 for Color Rendering in low light 4.5 out of 5 for Color Rendering in bright light *Color Shading is the nasty habit cellphone cameras have of rendering different areas of the frame with different color shifts, resulting in pictures with, for example, pinkish centers and greenish corners. Noise and Details DxOMark's engineers reported the that when shooting with the Galaxy S5 'a lot of detail is visible across the frame' with 'low noise levels in low light conditions'. The testers found the S5's noise and detail levels to be 'better than the Galaxy S4'. On the downside there is a 'noticeable loss of details in low light conditions.' Texture Acutance Texture acutance is a way of measuring the ability of a camera to capture images that preserve fine details, particularly the kind of low contrast detail that can be blurred away by noise reduction or obliterated by excessive sharpening (such as fine foliage, hair or fur). Sharpness is an important part of the quality of an image, but while it's easy to look at an image and decide visually whether it's sharp or not, the objective measurement of sharpness is less straightforward. An image can be defined as 'sharp' if edges are sharp and if fine details are visible. In-camera processing means that it's possible to have one of these (sharp edges) but not the other (fine details). Conventional MTF measurements tell us how sharp an edge is, but have drawbacks when it comes to measuring fine detail preservation. Image processing algorithms can detect edges and enhance their sharpness, but they can also find homogeneous areas and smooth them out to reduce noise. Texture acutance, on the other hand, can qualify sharpness in terms of preservation of fine details, without being fooled by edge enhancement algorithms. A dead leaf pattern is designed to measure texture acutance. It's obtained by drawing random shapes that occlude each other in the plane, like dead leaves falling from a tree. The statistics of this model follow the distribution statistics in natural images. In this example from a DSLR without edge enhancement, sharpness seems equal on edge and on texture. Many details are visible in the texture. In this second example, edges have been digitally enhanced, and the edge looks over sharp, with visible processing halos ('ringing'). On the texture part, many details have disappeared. At first sight, the images from these two cameras may appear equally sharp. A sharpness measurement on edges will indeed confirm this impression, and will even show that the second camera is sharper. But a closer examination of low contrasted textures shows that the first camera has better preservation of fine details than the second. The purpose of the texture acutance measurement is to qualify this difference. Note: Acutance is a single value metric calculated from a MTF result. Acutance is used to assess the sharpness of an image as viewed by the human visual system, and is dependent on the viewing conditions (size of image, size of screen or print, viewing distance). Only the values of texture acutance are given here. The measurements are expressed as a percentage of the theoretical maximum for the chosen viewing condition. The higher the score, the more details can be seen in an image. For all DxOMark Mobile data presented on connect.dpreview.com we're only showing 8MP equivalent values, which gives us a level playing field for comparison between smartphone cameras with different megapixel values by normalizing all to 8MP (suitable for fairly large prints). DxOMark also offers this data for lower resolution use-cases (web and onscreen).

Flash DxOMark scored the Samsung Galaxy S5 82/100 overall for its flash performance which is three points less than the Sony Xperia Z2. Pros: Good detail preservation, accurate white balance and color Cons: Some white balance errors in mixed light No red eye correction Overall DxOMark Mobile Score for Photo: 79 / 100 Video Capture DxOMark engineers put phone cameras through a similarly grueling set of video tests, and you can read their full findings on the DxOMark website here. Bottom line: DxOMark found the Samsung Galaxy S5's overall video performance to be the best of all devices tested so far, with nice textures and good AF. Only in some light conditions the Samsung can struggle with color reproduction. Pros: Best mobile video tested to date Well balanced video mode, without any major flaws Good autofocus Good texture Cons: Visible color non-uniformities in some light conditions In our brightly lit studio scene the Samsung Galaxy S5 can take advantage of its 16MP sensor and resolves more detail than most of the competition. This is true for high-contrast detail as it can be found in the resolution charts in our test scene as well as low-contrast in the feathers and fabrics. Well-balanced sharpening means that edges look crisp without any halos or other sharpening artifacts and low levels of noise reduction at base ISO ensure less blurring of fine detail than the competition and pleasant rendering of low-contrast areas in the frame. The image is also pretty clean, with very little noise in areas of plain color and no artifacts, but a touch of lens softness is noticeable towards the edges of the frame. In our low light studio tests the Samsung Galaxy S5 opts for a relatively high ISO 1250 to achieve a slightly brighter exposure than some of the competition but thanks to a well-balanced approach to noise reduction edge detail is still very well maintained. At such high sensitivities fine low-contrast detail suffers noticeably but but can still more than keep up with the competition. There is visible grain in the image but it's not blurred into unsightly 'blotches' by noise reduction and overall the S5 output looks cleaner and more artifact-free than most of the competition's low-light samples. Color is also maintained well and chroma noise is very well controlled. Downsizing the Samsung images for web-use and social sharing will average noise out further and make even images shot at the highest sensitivities usable. Conclusion Conclusion - The Good Excellent image detail in bright light Good balance between detail and noise reduction across ISO range No chromatic aberrations, purple fringing, moiré or other artifacts Good color maintained up to the highest ISO settings Decent flash performance Good video quality, 4k, HDR and slow motion modes Responsive performance Comprehensive camera feature set Good HDR mode Panorama mode produces very large and detailed images Comprehensive editing options in gallery app Partly customizable camera UI microSD slot offers expandable storage for images and video Removable battery with fast charging Water- and dust-resistant body (IP67) Conclusion - The Bad Some image softness towards the edges of the frame Exposure compensation buried in menu No optical image stabilization and slow shutter speeds mean danger of camera shake in low light Fairly strong saturation can lead to unnatural skin tones in portraits Selective Focus feature pretty much unusable Overall Conclusion Opinions might be split about the Galaxy S5's design and choice of body materials but looking at the pros and cons list above it's clear that Samsung's latest flagship smartphone has a lot to offer to mobile photographers. The camera's 1/2.6-inch BSI CMOS sensor captures excellent image quality with very good detail in bright light and well-balanced noise reduction across the ISO range. The only major points of criticism are a total lack of control over exposure in the default camera app and the the slow shutter speeds in low light which, without optical image stabilization, can result in slightly soft images. That said, at least the former issue can be solved easily by installing a third party alternative. Feature lovers will appreciate both the camera and gallery apps which are packed with shooting modes and editing functions. Many of them are of a rather gimmicky nature but the arguably most used ones, such as HDR and panorama mode, deliver excellent results. Movie mode offers good image quality and features, too. Throw excellent battery life, fast charging and a water- and dust proof body into the mix and you got yourself a device that most mobile photographers will have a lot of fun with. Features & Operation The Samsung Galaxy S5 comes with high-end hardware all around and is therefore very responsive in general operation and performs most tasks swiftly without delays. Initially the gallery app felt a little sluggish but Samsung has fixed this with a software update, so if picture browsing and editing is a little slower than it should be on your S5 make sure you have the latest software installed. The camera app offers one of the most comprehensive feature sets with an abundance of modes and functions that'll take you a good while to explore. If that's still not enough you can download and install more shooting modes from the Samsung App Store. Some of the features have a slightly gimmicky character or, like the new Selective Focus, simply don't work very well but the two special modes that arguably matter most to many users, HDR and Panorama mode, work very efficiently and produce great results. The sheer number of options can make the camera app appear a little overwhelming and one by many users frequently used option, exposure compensation is buried in the menu and difficult to get to. You cannot link exposure to the focus point either. So, to capture that low- or high-key image with ease or simply have some more creative freedom you'll have to install a third-party camera app like FV-5 or Google's own camera app. Image Quality In good light the Samsung Galaxy S5 camera captures some of the best detail we have seen on a mobile device. As usual on smartphone cameras there are traces of noise in areas of plain color and some blurring of fine low-contrast detail but overall the Samsung's image output is excellent, with good exposure, well-balanced sharpening and no artifacts, such as moiré patterns or chromatic aberrations. The only minor points of criticism are a touch of lens softness towards the edges of the frame and a pretty strong saturation that can result in slightly unnatural skin tones. In lower light the Samsung Galaxy S5 again performs well but the lack of an optical image stabilization and slow shutter speeds mean that some low light image suffer from a slight softness due to camera shake. If you need a 100% sharp low light shot it is therefore recommendable to shoot a batch of images to make sure you have at least one good one. Other than that low light images show good color across the ISO range. Traces of chroma noise are visible at large magnifications but overall color noise is very well under control. The grainy kind of noise increases as you go up the ISO scale but never becomes too intrusive and even images taken at the highest sensitivity, ISO 2000, are suitable for web use and sharing in social media. The Galaxy S5 high pixel count means that when images are downsampled for web use or social sharing noise is averaged out. The Final Word The Samsung Galaxy S5 combines a very comprehensive imaging feature set with the best image quality we have seen on an Android device so far. The camera on Samsung's flagship smartphone could be further improved with an optical image stabilization system but even without OIS the S5 is an easy recommendation to any mobile photographer using Google's mobile OS. | samsung.galaxy.s5.2 |@lemmatized samsung:41 galaxy:47 camera:71 review:6 connect:2 smartphone:18 write:1 need:6 photographer:6 mind:3 focus:22 feature:28 performance:12 image:103

malaysia.airlines.flight.74 | MH370 possibly in one of two 'corridors', says PM SEPANG, March 15 ? Missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 is in two possible corridors that span from Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan to Thailand in one and Indonesia to the south of the Indian Ocean in the other, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak revealed today. The prime minister said new information showed that while the transponders and Aircraft Communications Addressing and Reporting System (ACARS) were turned off shortly into the flight, MH370 made a final satellite communication at 8.11am on March 8, nearly eight hours after it departed Kuala Lumpur International Airport. "Based on this new data, the aviation authorities of Malaysia and their international counterparts have determined that the plane's last communication with the satellite was in one of two possible corridors," Najib said at a press conference at the Sama-Sama Hotel here today. The first was a northern corridor stretching from the borders of Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan to northern Thailand, with a second southern corridor ranging from Indonesia to the south of the Indian Ocean. "Investigators are working to further refine the data to locate the aircraft," he said. Earlier, the prime minister confirmed the plane with 239 onboard was taken off course through "deliberate action", but maintained that a hijacking was only one of the possibilities still being pursued. With the latest information, Najib said the search effort in the South China Sea will now be called off and the assets re-deployed after consulting with data and assisting nations. "This new satellite information has a significant impact on the nature and scope of the search operation. "We are ending our operations in the South China Sea and reassessing the redeployment of our assets," Najib said. The waters between Malaysia and China was where the bulk of search efforts have been concentrated, given previous information that MH370 lost contact with ground control 120km off Kelantan's coast.

greek.elections.113 | Pro-bailout parties secure Greek majority Greek political parties supporting a bailout for the country have won enough seats in the country's latest parliamentary elections to form a joint government. Near complete results early on Monday showed the conservative New Democracy party gaining about 30 per cent of the vote and 129 seats in the 300-seat parliament, including a bonus 50 seats for finishing first, while the pro-bailout Socialist PASOK party came in third with about 12 per cent and 33 seats. The leftist Syriza party, which had become the standard bearer for the anti-bailout cause, gained almost 27 per cent and 71 seats, while the far-right Golden Dawn party had 6.9 per cent of the vote, earning 18 seats. Sunday's vote, which followed an inconclusive ballot on May 6, was seen as crucial for Europe and the world, since it could determine whether Greece was forced to leave the joint euro currency, a move that analysts say would have potentially catastrophic consequences for other ailing European nations and the global economy. Click here to follow our Greece elections live blog "The Greek people today voted for Greece to remain on its European path and in the eurozone," said Antonis Samaras, the New Democracy leader, adding that voters chose "policies that will bring jobs, growth, justice and security". Al Jazeera's Barnaby Phillips, reporting from Athens, said the demographic division over economic policy between different age groups was quite dramatic, with younger voters far more likely to vote for Syriza, while older Greeks were more conservative. Youth vote "The youth went for Syriza, and when you look at Greece's youth unemployment, that's understandable," he said. Alexis Tsipras, Syriza's leader, conceded defeat late in the day, saying his party would not join a New Democracy-led government and would continue to oppose the bailout. "We represent a majority of people opposed to the bailout deal," said Tsipras. ""We will be present in these developments from the position of the main opposition." Greece has been dependent on rescue loans totalling $300bn since May 2010 after sky-high borrowing rates left it locked out of the international markets and unable to meet debt payments. The spending cuts made in return have left the country mired in a fifth year of recession, with unemployment rising to above 22 per cent and tens of thousands of businesses shutting down. Virtually unknown outside of Greece four months ago, Tsipras and his party shot to prominence in the May 6 vote, where he came a surprise second and quadrupled his support since the 2009 election on the back of public frustration with traditionally dominant New Democracy and PASOK and their failure to address the country's financial travails. Tsipras had vowed to tear up Greece's bailout agreements and repeal the austerity measures, which have included deep spending cuts on everything from health care to education and infrastructure, as well as tax hikes and reductions of salaries and pensions. Samaras, for his part, cast the choice as one between the euro and returning to the drachma. He pledged to renegotiate some of the bailout's harsher terms but insists the top priority is for the country to remain in Europe's joint currency. 'New era' for Greece Opinion polls pitted the anti-bailout party Syriza against pro-bailout New Democracy [GALLO/GETTY] "Today the Greek people speak. Tomorrow a new era for Greece begins," Samaras said after voting in southern Greece. Earlier on Sunday, about 10 men armed with sledgehammers and wooden bats attacked a polling station in central Athens, wounding two policemen guarding it and setting fire to the ballot box shortly before polls closed. The attack - the only one reported so far - took place in the Athens neighbourhood of Exarhia, a traditional haven for leftists and anarchists. Greek police were also investigating the discovery on Sunday of two unexploded hand grenades outside private Skai television station on the outskirts of Athens. Demetris Tsiodras, the Greek government spokesperson, denounced the devices as an attempt to spoil the smooth running of the election. Wolfgang Schaeuble, Germany's finance minister, called New Democracy's victory a decision to "forge ahead" with implementing far-reaching reforms. Schaeuble said it was important for Greece to stick to its agreements with creditors, but held out the prospect that Athens might be given more time to comply with them. Germany, Europe's biggest economy, has been a major contributor to Greece's two rescue packages and a key advocate of demanding tough austerity conditions. | greek.elections.113 |@lemmatized pro:3 bailout:10 party:9 secure:1 greek:7 majority:2 political:1 support:2 country:5 win:1 enough:1 seat:7 late:2 parliamentary:1 election:4 form:1 joint:3 government:3 near:1 complete:1 result:1 early:1 monday:1 show:1 conservative:2 new:8 democracy:6 gain:2 per:5 cent:5 vote:8 parliament:1 include:2 bonus:1 finish:1 first:1 socialist:1 pasok:2 come:2 third:1 leftist:2 syriza:5 become:1 standard:1 bearer:1 anti:2 cause:1 almost:1 far:4 right:1 golden:1 dawn:1 earn:1 sunday:3 follow:2 inconclusive:1 ballot:2 may:3 see:1 crucial:1 europe:3 world:1 since:3 could:1 determine:1 whether:1 greece:12 force:1 leave:3 euro:2 currency:2 move:1 analyst:1 say:8 would:3 potentially:1 catastrophic:1 consequence:1 ail:1 european:2 nation:1 global:1 economy:2 click:1 live:1 blog:1 people:3 today:2 remain:2 path:1 eurozone:1 antonis:1 samara:3 leader:2 add:1 voter:2 choose:1 policy:2 bring:1 job:1 growth:1 justice:1 security:1 al:1 jazeera:1 barnaby:1 phillips:1 report:2 athens:5 demographic:1 division:1 economic:1 different:1 age:1 group:1 quite:1 dramatic:1 young:1 likely:1 old:1 youth:3 go:1 look:1 unemployment:2 understandable:1 alexis:1 tsipras:4 concede:1 defeat:1 day:1 join:1 led:1 continue:1 oppose:2 represent:1 deal:1 present:1 development:1 position:1 main:1 opposition:1 dependent:1 rescue:2 loan:1 total:1 sky:1 high:1 borrowing:1 rate:1 lock:1 international:1 market:1 unable:1 meet:1 debt:1 payment:1 spending:2 cut:2 make:1 return:2 mire:1 fifth:1 year:1 recession:1 rise:1 ten:1 thousand:1 business:1 shut:1 virtually:1 unknown:1 outside:2 four:1 month:1 ago:1 shot:1 prominence:1 surprise:1 second:1 quadruple:1 back:1 public:1 frustration:1 traditionally:1 dominant:1 failure:1 address:1 financial:1 travail:1 vow:1 tear:1 agreement:2 repeal:1 austerity:2 measure:1 deep:1 everything:1 health:1 care:1 education:1 infrastructure:1 well:1 tax:1 hike:1 reduction:1 salary:1 pension:1 part:1 cast:1 choice:1 one:2 drachma:1 pledge:1 renegotiate:1 harsher:1 term:1 insist:1 top:1 priority:1 era:2 opinion:1 poll:2 pit:1 gallo:1 getty:1 speak:1 tomorrow:1 begin:1 southern:1 earlier:1 men:1 arm:1 sledgehammer:1 wooden:1 bat:1 attack:2 polling:1 station:2 central:1 wound:1 two:3 policeman:1 guard:1 set:1 fire:1 box:1 shortly:1 close:1 take:1 place:1 neighbourhood:1 exarhia:1 traditional:1 anarchist:1 police:1 also:1 investigate:1 discovery:1 unexploded:1 hand:1 grenade:1 private:1 skai:1 television:1 outskirt:1 demetris:1 tsiodras:1 spokesperson:1 denounce:1 device:1 attempt:1 spoil:1 smooth:1 running:1 wolfgang:1 schaeuble:2 germany:2 finance:1 minister:1 call:1 victory:1 decision:1 forge:1 ahead:1 implement:1 reach:1 reform:1 important:1 stick:1 creditor:1 hold:1 prospect:1 might:1 give:1 time:1 comply:1 big:1 major:1 contributor:1 package:1 key:1 advocate:1 demand:1 tough:1 condition:1 |@ngramms pro_bailout:3 majority_greek:1 party_support:1 bailout_country:1 early_monday:1 vote_seat:1 seat_parliament:1 socialist_pasok:1 syriza_party:1 global_economy:1 greece_election:1 greek_people:2 greece_remain:1 report_athens:1 vote_syriza:1 late_day:1 majority_people:1 bailout_deal:1 present_development:1 main_opposition:1 rescue_loan:1 sky_high:1 international_market:1 leave_country:1 thousand_business:1 month_ago:1 tear_greece:1 bailout_agreement:1 austerity_measure:1 health_care:1 bailout_party:1 greece_earlier:1 television_station:1 greek_government:1 finance_minister:1 rescue_package:1 |
ParisAttacks2015_(26) | Paris attacks: Who were the attackers? French officials investigating the deadly Paris attacks have identified most of the people they believe to have carried out the assaults, claimed by the Islamic State (IS) group. The attacks are suspected to have been masterminded by Abdelhamid Abaaoud, killed in a police raid in Saint-Denis a few days later. But another key figure is on the run. This is what we know about the suspects, and what the authorities have accused them of doing. Salah Abdeslam The 26-year-old French national born in Brussels has been identified as a key suspect, and he is the subject of a massive police manhunt in Belgium and beyond. He is described as dangerous, and police have warned the public not to approach him. He is believed to have rented a VW Polo car in Belgium, which was later found near the Bataclan concert hall where 89 people were killed. But he also rented a Renault Clio and reserved two hotel rooms outside Paris before the attacks. His precise role in the attacks themselves is unclear, although his brother Brahim blew himself up. Investigators believe Salah Abdeslam may have driven the three Stade de France bombers to their destination and may have been given the job of an attack a short distance south, in the 18th district. That attack never happened. Hours after the 13 November attacks, Salah Abdeslam was in a vehicle with two other men near the Belgian border when they were stopped at least once by police. They were allowed to drive on after checks. It is unclear whether French authorities had matched his name to the car found at the Bataclan by the time he was stopped. As the search for Salah Abdeslam intensified in Belgium, Brussels went into lockdown and his brother, Mohamed, appealed for him to give himself up. His past is littered with petty crime and Belgian prosecutors said they had questioned him and his brother Brahim earlier this year. Some reports have said he spent time in prison for robbery where he met suspected ringleader Abdelhamid Abaaoud. He had earlier been sacked as a technician on the Brussels tram system for missing work. Dutch police said they had detained Salah Abdeslam briefly in February, fining him €70 (£49) for possession of cannabis. Brahim Abdeslam Salah Abdeslam's brother died after he set off his explosives-laden suicide belt near a Paris cafe on Boulevard Voltaire, investigators say. The 31-year-old had rented a Seat car which was found the day after the attacks at Montreuil, to the east of Paris. He had earlier appeared in several Belgian police files alongside Abdelhamid Abaaoud. The documents relate to criminal cases in 2010 and 2011. "Investigators see a link with Verviers," Belgium's De Standaard newspaper reported, referring to a Belgian town where police shot dead two militants in January and broke up a cell aiming to kill Belgian police officers, days after the Charlie Hebdo attacks in Paris. Earlier this year, Brahim Abdeslam had travelled to Turkey intending to go on to Syria but Turkish authorities deported him back to Brussels, Belgian judicial officials told Le Soir newspaper. The report said he had been questioned on his return to Belgium and then released. Both Brahim Abdeslam and Abaaoud lived in Molenbeek, a rundown district of Brussels with a substantial Muslim population, which is described by some Belgian officials as a "breeding ground for jihadists". Friends and neighbours who spoke to the BBC's Newsnight team said that in October 2014, Brahim Abdeslam saved five children from a burning building. "I'm grateful to Brahim for saving my children, but I can't understand what he did in Paris," the children's father said. Brahim owned a bar in Molenbeek which some reports say was managed by his brother Salah. People who knew them there have said both men drank alcohol and smoked drugs. "We're still in shock," said Youssef, a local man. "They were friends of ours, big smokers, big drinkers, but not radicals." "On Fridays, they would stay smoking on the terrace. I never saw them at the mosque," said Karim, 27, who lives in a flat above the bar. Another man, Jamal, said: "Their lives were the same as all young people: they liked football, going clubbing, coming back with girls." A police report obtained by AFP suggests the bar was shut down in early November because police believed customers were smoking marijuana there. Abdelhamid Abaaoud Who was Abdelhamid Abaaoud? Abaaoud, 28, is described as the suspected ringleader in the Paris attacks. He died in a long gun battle with police, who raided a flat in the northern Paris suburb of Saint-Denis on 18 November. Investigators believe he was involved in the bar and restaurant killings. His fingerprints were found on a Kalashnikov left in the Seat car abandoned in Montreuil. He grew up in the Brussels district of Molenbeek and was an associate of Salah Abdeslam. Implicated in four out of six foiled attacks this year, he was believed to have joined militant group IS in 2013. He had also been in contact with Mehdi Nemmouche, accused of shooting dead four people at the Jewish Museum in Brussels in May 2014. Abaaoud's father had become aware in the past month of his son's links to terrorism and believed he had become a psychopath, according to lawyer Nathalie Gallant, Third man The third bar gunman has not been identified. It is not yet clear if he escaped or later died in the police raid on the Saint-Denis flat. Bataclan concert hall attack Omar Ismail Mostefai The 29-year-old French national of Algerian descent blew himself up after the massacre at the Bataclan, eight days before his 30th birthday. He was identified from a finger-tip found in the concert hall where 89 people were killed. Born in the poor Paris suburb of Courcouronnes, he was known to police as a petty criminal - getting eight convictions between 2004 and 2010 but spending no time in jail. Between 2005 and 2012, he lived in Chartres, near Paris, where he reportedly worked as a baker and played football with fellow employees. He attended a mosque with his father. A local Islamic association leader said he showed no signs of being an extremist. Other residents said the family was "very nice". In 2010, however, he was identified by the French authorities as a suspected Islamic radical and his details were entered in a database. Since then Omar Mostefai appears to have been able to travel to Syria; he may have also spent time in Algeria. A senior Turkish official confirmed to the BBC that Omar Mostefai entered Turkey in 2013 and there was no record of him leaving the country. The official - who spoke on the condition of anonymity - said that in October 2014 Turkey had received an information request regarding four terror suspects from the French authorities. During the official investigation, he said, Turkish authorities identified a fifth individual - Mostefai - and notified their French counterparts twice, in December 2014 and June 2015. "We have, however, not heard back from France on the matter," the official said. He added that it was only after the Paris attacks that the Turkish authorities received an information request about Omar Ismail Mostefai from France. Samy Amimour The 28-year-old was another of the suicide bombers who blew himself up at the Bataclan. The Frenchman, who lived in the north-eastern Paris suburb of Drancy, had been known to French intelligence services. He was charged with terror offences in 2012 over claims he had planned to go to Yemen. He was placed under judicial supervision but then dropped off the radar, prompting the authorities to issue an international arrest warrant. In 2014, Le Monde newspaper published an account of the journey (in French) of a 67-year-old Parisian man to Syria, in the hope of persuading his son to leave IS and return to France. Pseudonyms were used in the article but it has since been updated to reveal that the son in question was Amimour. His son refused to leave and the father returned home without him. French media have pointed out that evidently he was able to slip back into France prior to the attacks, despite the arrest warrant. Three of Amimour's relatives were reportedly arrested after Friday's attacks. Third man The third Bataclan suicide bomber has not been identified. Stade de France 'Ahmad al-Mohammad' This man was the first of three to blow himself up at Stade de France stadium. At the scene a Syrian passport was found which bore this name, suggesting the man was a 25-year-old from the Syrian city of Idlib, but authorities believe this passport was a fake. A report in a Serbian newspaper, Blic, said a passport bearing the same name and data - but a different image - had been found on another migrant, suggesting both men bought fake documents from the same counterfeiter. The Paris prosecutor's office said fingerprints from the dead attacker matched those of a person who came to Europe with migrants via the Greek island of Leros. The man may have been posing as a Syrian refugee. Records from Leros suggested he arrived on 3 October and was fingerprinted and photographed. An official there remembers the man arriving, and told the BBC's Gabriel Gatehouse that something did not feel right about him - he kept himself to himself. He said he would have highlighted his concerns to an intelligence officer, had one been there. Leros authorities say they simply do not have the resources to screen all the migrants effectively - or even check whether passports are genuine. Bilal Hadfi The 20-year-old has been named as one of the attackers who died at Stade de France. He had tried to get into the stadium while France were playing Germany but was denied entry and blew himself up in the nearby rue de la Cokerie. The French national had been living at Neder-over-Hembeek in Belgium. Belgian media say he was radicalised early in 2014. Belgian prosecutors have said they were aware he had gone to fight with IS in Syria but did not know he had returned. 'M al-Mahmod' The picture of the third suicide bomber at the Stade de France has been issued by French police. He has been named by the BBC as M al-Mahmod. He blew himself up in front of one of the entrances to the stadium, in rue Rimet. He entered the Greek island of Leros on 3 October, travelling with Ahmad al-Mohammed. French police have not yet named him, but the BBC's Ed Thomas matched the image released by the authorities with a photo on arrival papers at Leros. Our correspondent says the two men bought ferry tickets to leave Leros to continue their journey through Europe with Syrian refugees. Saint-Denis Hasna Aitboulahcen, a cousin of Abdelhamid Abaaoud, died with him in the gun battle at the Saint-Denis flat. Another man, who has not yet been identified, blew himself up. The daughter of Moroccan immigrants, Aitboulahcen was tracked by police who tapped her phone after 13 November, and she was seen leading Abaaoud into the flat hours before the police raid. She had become radicalised only in recent months and was thought to have had a brief conversation with police before she died. A policeman shouted out "Where is your boyfriend?" to which she responded, "He's not my boyfriend". Initial reports indicated she had blown herself up, but police later said it was a man that had done so. He has not been identified but there are some suggestions that he may have taken part in the attacks on bars and restaurants in the 10th and 11th districts of Paris with Abaaoud and Brahim Abdeslam. Jawad Bendaoud Jawad Bendaoud, 29, was arrested during the Saint-Denis raid and is said to have rented the flat to Abaaoud and Hasna Aitboulahcen. He told French media before he was questioned by police that a friend had asked him to look after "two mates who were coming from Belgium". "I said there was no mattress but they told me it's not a big deal. They just wanted water and to pray," he said. A girlfriend, Hayet, who was with Jawad Bendaoud on the night of the 13 November attacks told French TV that he suddenly realised he was in trouble. What happened in the days before the raid is unclear but she believes her friend had seen the state of the flat and was "aware of what was going on". Mr Bendaoud has been in trouble with the police before and has served time in prison. Belgian connection Mohammed Amri, 27, and Hamza Attouh, who is 21, were arrested in Belgium and admitted picking up Salah Abdeslam in France and driving him back to Brussels in a Volkswagen Golf. The pair received a phone call from Salah Abdeslam at 0500 on Saturday and said his car had broken down. They insisted no mention was made of the attacks carried out in Paris a few hours earlier, although Hamza Attouh said he was wearing thick clothing and may have been preparing to blow himself up. They gave conflicting versions of where in Brussels they had dropped him off. Abraimi Lazez, 39, was arrested in the Belgian town of Laeken, in a car where two guns and traces of blood were found. He is also suspected of helping Salah Abdeslam flee France. A French national, named by police as Ali O, has been accused by Belgian authorities of taking part in the actions of a terrorist group and a terrorist attack. Police believe he may also have driven Salah at one point. Two days before the 13 November attacks took place, Salah was spotted in the Renault Clio used to drop off the Stade de France attackers with another suspect. Belgian police say they are now also hunting Mohamed Abrini, 29, who was driving the car with Salah Abdeslam as a passenger when it stopped at a petrol station in Ressons, on the motorway to Paris. Meanwhile Ahmad Dahmani, a 26-year-old Belgian, is being held in Turkey, after flying to the resort of Antalya. He is suspected of involvement in preparations for the Paris attacks. | ParisAttacks2015_(26) |@lemmatized paris:18 attack:22 attacker:4 french:16 official:8 investigate:1 deadly:1 identify:9 people:6

samsung.galaxy.s5.28 | Samsung Galaxy S 5 Review Platform Power The Galaxy S 5 includes Samsung's hallmark removable back cover and battery. The GS5 uses a 10.78Wh (2800mAh @ 3.85V) battery. The modest increase in battery capacity over the Galaxy S 4 is only a small part of the story. With the GS5, Samsung significantly improved the overall platform power story compared to the Galaxy S 4 (even more so than HTC's M7/M8 transition). The move to a Snapdragon 801 SoC brings with it all of the performance and power efficiency benefits of the design and its updated 28nm HPm manufacturing process. The connectivity side sees a big improvement in power efficiency thanks to the use of Qualcomm's QFE1100 envelope tracker. Samsung also significantly reduced display power consumption on the GS5 compared to the GS4, which is likely the result of higher quantum efficiency (more brightness for less power), and panel self refresh. The result is a device that's bigger, faster and at the same time, far more power efficient than its predecessor. To me the biggest benefit of having a removable back cover and removable battery is the ability to quickly instrument the device to measure power consumption. I did just that with the Galaxy S 5 (T-Mobile) and GS4 (AT&T) to help characterize the improvement in total device power. All of the numbers below are taken with both displays calibrated to 200 nits. The GS4's display in particular was horribly inefficient, particularly at higher brightness values. The GS5 addresses that problem and appears to shoot for a sub-3W operating envelope in most situations. It is absolutely possible to get the device to draw more power than that however. Running a Speedtest while connected to T-Mobile's LTE network (with the display at minimum brightness), I measured an average power draw of 4.38W. With the display running at full brightness I measured 5.18W platform power draw while capturing 1080p video, and a whopping 6.54W while capturing 4K video. Assuming no thermal throttling, you could run through the GS5's battery in 1.64 hours by simply recording 4K video with the display set to max brightness. I characterized the GS5's display power as well for those of you who are interested. Note that all of this data was gathered with both cellular and WiFi connected, but all background sync tasks disabled. I'm not reporting absolute minimums here but rather an average over a short idle period. Galaxy S 5 Device Power vs. Display Brightness Minimum Brightness 200 nits Max Brightness Max Brightness (w/ Boost) Idle at Home Screen 456.2mW 591.2mW 754.4mW 1274.9mW Idle Displaying White 453.2mW 1517.4mW 2148.0mW You can see the impact content has on the AMOLED power draw by comparing the home/white rows. The GS5 display has a boost mode that kicks in when the ambient light sensor detects over 30,000 lux. The power penalty from running in this mode is pretty substantial as you'd expect. At worst, the GS5 will pull over 2W at idle while running in this max brightness boost mode. As is always the case, your display brightness has a big impact on battery life. If you run at max brightness you can conceivably run through your battery in 7 hours without doing anything at all. Run the display at 200 nits however (~60% on the GS5) and you can easily triple that battery life. Ultra Power Saving Mode The Galaxy S 5 has two low power modes that can be manually triggered: power saving and ultra power saving. The former offers the usual control over the CPU governor, limiting max frequency to 1.5GHz but keeping all four cores plugged in. You can also force the display into grayscale mode and choose to block background data. Ultra power saving mode is the big new feature of the Galaxy S 5. In this mode all running apps are forced to quit, the display switches to grayscale mode, max brightness is clamped to 87 nits and the display refresh rate is reduced from 60Hz to 30Hz. When the screen turns off, ultra power saving mode turns off mobile data.WiFi and BT are also disabled upon entry (although you can manually re-enable them). Also in UPSM, Samsung disables two of the Krait 400 cores and caps the remaining two at 1.5GHz. You can only run a handful of apps in ultra power saving mode, including Samsung's own browser (Phone, Messages, Internet, Calculator, ChatON, Clock, Google+, Memo and Voice Recorder). Samsung claims that with only 10% left on your battery, switching into ultra power saving mode can give you up to 24 hours of standby time. To vet the claim I measured device power consumption while in UPSM. Just as before, this is total device power consumption measured at the battery. Galaxy S 5 Ultra Power Saving Mode Sleep Idle (Home Screen) SunSpider Ultra Power Saving Mode 16.8 mW 421 mW 1231.2 mW Normal Mode (min brightness) 21.5 mW 2461.5 mW Assuming a full battery can deliver 10.78Wh and a battery drained to 10% of that capacity only has 1.078Wh, if the GS5 consumes 16.8mW asleep with the display off on average I'd expect just over 64 hours of standby battery life - well above Samsung's claim of 24 hours. In reality, if you look at the power draw curve while sleeping the GS5 will wake up periodically and draw 200 - 300mW for a second or two. My guess is that's where the 24 hours of estimated time comes in. Now keep in mind that if you're actively using the device you'll see substantially higher power consumption. Running SunSpider in UPSM cuts platform power in less than half compared to normal mode with the display set to minimum brightness, so there's definitely a tangible benefit to UPSM even under active use. In the same 10% scenario from above, running a heavy web browser workload would kill your battery in 26 minutes normally or 52 minutes in ultra power saving mode. It's not a silver bullet but sometimes another 30 minutes of battery life is all you need. Battery Life I put the Galaxy S 5 through our standard suite of battery life tests. As always, all of our battery life tests are run with the display set to 200 nits. We've documented our workloads in the past so I won't go through them again here. We're also working on populating our BaseMark OS II and GFXBench 3.0 battery life results so those charts may look a bit incomplete for now. The Galaxy S 5, like the new HTC One, sees a tremendous improvement in battery life thanks to the Snapdragon 801 platform. The move to an updated 28nm HPm process has a tangible impact on battery life compared to recent Snapdragon 800 designs. The increase in battery life compared to the Galaxy S 4 is incredible. We're also seeing a slight advantage to low power LTE battery life compared to WiFi in our test. Ultimately what this tells me is Snapdragon 801 is now fast enough to make our battery life test more display bound than anything else. It looks like it's time to build something new. The Galaxy S 5 falls behind the new HTC One by a little bit, especially if you consider the smaller capacity battery. I suspect this has more to do with display power consumption than anything else. Web Browsing Battery Life (4G LTE) Web Browsing Battery Life (WiFi) More often than not, when you're faced with faster compute you end up doing more. To see what the other extreme of battery life looks like (where we aren't bound by display power) I turned to two canned tests: BaseMark OS II and GFXBench 3.0. I ran both of these tests under the same controlled conditions we always use, with all displays calibrated to 200 nits. BaseMark OS II runs through a bunch of CPU and storage benchmarks (basically the same tests used for the BaseMark OS II system and memory tests), as fast as possible, until the battery dies. I like this benchmark as it gives us an indication of worst case battery life if you're absolutely hammering the CPU (and storage) relentlessly. BaseMark OS II Battery Life GFXBench 3.0 Battery Life While the M8 outlasted the Galaxy S 5 in our web browsing tests, the GS5 pulls ahead in our two compute bound tests. To better understand why, let's look at what happens to the GS5's performance over time during the GFXBench 3.0 test: GFXBench 3.0 Battery Performance While the M8's thermal chassis is able to dissipate heat nicely and keep the SoC running closer to full clocks, the GS5's plastic body acts as more of an insulator and forces GPU clocks down over the duration of the test. The result is a reduction in performance, but an increase in battery life. The Galaxy S 5 won't let you run the battery down as fast as you could due to thermal limitations of the chassis. Charge Time Samsung includes a 5.3V/2A charger in the GS5's box along with a USB 3.0 cable. You can still charge the GS5 using a USB 2.0 cable as well. Despite an increase in battery capacity, the GS5 can attain a full charge in less than 2 hours. Combining excellent battery life with a very short charge time, the Galaxy S 5 is a solid performer for anyone who is on the go.

samsung.galaxy.s5.35 | Samsung Galaxy S5 preview: simpler in some ways, more 'glam' in others Once a year, Samsung takes some of its best material and slaps it together into a premium flagship model called the Galaxy S. While 2014's version -- the S5 -- came a bit earlier in the year than some earlier iterations, we're no less excited to see it become the star of the show at Mobile World Congress. The new device will ship in April (on stage, Samsung specifically mentioned that it launches on April 11th in 150 markets), although exact pricing and availability are still unknown. It features a refreshed design language, yet anyone who has used a GS phone recently will immediately recognize it as a Samsung flagship. Despite its familiar design, the GS5 has a few new useful hardware features, including a fingerprint scanner, heart rate sensor, and a toned-down TouchWiz UI on top of Android 4.4 KitKat. Perhaps the biggest surprise of all, however, was that Samsung didn't overload its prized new smartphone with a heaping dose of new S-branded features. This is a marked departure from the company's previous strategy of cramming in every software feature under the sun, which leads us to wonder if this is related to Samsung's recent agreement to dial back the customization it does on Android devices. So what else is new here? Read on for a deeper dive. Once a year, Samsung takes some of its best material and slaps it together into a premium flagship model called the Galaxy S.

So what else is new here? Read on for a deeper dive. Gallery | 12 Photos S5 + See all 12 The new Galaxy retains the same 1080p Super AMOLED panel as the GS4; it's just slightly larger, at 5.1 inches. With this in mind, it shouldn't come as a surprise that the viewing experience is pretty much the same as its predecessor. Additionally, the GS5 comes with a swappable back cover, microSD slot and removable 2,800mAh battery, which has a higher capacity than last year's model. It's also IP67-certified, which adds an element of water and dust resistance never before enjoyed by Galaxy S users (unless you count the GS4 Active, that is). As a result, the micro-USB 3.0 port at the bottom is protected by a tab that keeps water from getting inside. Samsung says the back of the GS5 is "leather-like," which basically means it's a fancy-looking polycarbonate build. While the company already uses similar design language for the Galaxy Note 3 and Note 10.1 2014 edition, the look and feel is slightly different; it's not quite as soft as the new Notes, and its small dimples actually remind us of the original Nexus 7. Though the sides have a metallic finish, company reps confirmed they're actually made from a blend of polycarbonate and glass fiber. Still, we're more confident of the durability here than we were with many of Samsung's previous Galaxy phones. One of the biggest talking points for the GS5 is that new fingerprint scanner. It's easy to see this as a response to Apple's Touch ID implementation in the iPhone 5s, and while it's hard to say if that was the primary motivation for the new feature, Apple's not the only manufacturer to have integrated a fingerprint scanner, and we're sure it won't be the last. In this case, Samsung's scanner, which works by swiping your finger down over the home button, has a few handy use cases. In addition to the obligatory phone unlock option, it also lets you fingerprint-protect a private data locker on your phone, in case you have confidential information you don't want getting out there. Samsung also announced a partnership with PayPal which allows you to make online payments using the fingerprint method. In our limited time with the GS5, I noticed that the phone picked up my fingerprint most of the time, as long as I did it slowly enough -- if you're in a swiping hurry, your chance of success will likely drop. Unfortunately, we're still waiting to hear back on exactly how Samsung will implement security and privacy concerns with the scanner, so we'll update you as soon as we know more details. The other major new hardware feature is the heart rate sensor, which is built into the same rear module as the LED flash. It works in conjunction with S-Health 3.0, which acts as a personal life coach of sorts. To monitor your pulse, hold your finger up to the sensor and leave it there while the phone does the rest of the work. As you continue to do this more often, S-Health remembers your history and even goes through the effort of graphing it and offering up other relevant information. It also acts as a pedometer and food monitor. Samsung plans to offer an open SDK for developers to incorporate the tech into their own apps. Of course, Samsung also put some emphasis on the camera as well. In this case, the GS5 comes with a 16-megapixel sensor that features UHD recording capability and real-time HDR (both photos and video) and a couple new modes that we're excited to review. First, Samsung is introducing a selective focus feature that's much like Nokia's Refocus Lens, in which you can change the depth of field on an image after it's taken. Additionally, it also has "Shot & More," which is essentially your standard suite of best photo, eraser and drama; the GS4 had the ability to do these modes, but the difficulty was in the fact that you had to know exactly which mode you wanted to use before taking the shot, whereas now you'll be able to sort those details out after the shot is taken so you're not wasting extra time. Lastly, there's also a 2.0-megapixel camera on the front. The design philosophy behind this version of the Galaxy S involves a modern, glam look, and it even shows in the user interface. It's still very much a TouchWiz device, but it has a much different appearance than previous versions. It seems to be less in-your-face (again, a likely consequence of Google's intervention) with fewer tabs and menus. My Magazine is still around, but it's now accessible by swiping from left to right, not down to up. The rest of the phone's stats won't come as any shock. The GS5 offers a top-of-the-line 2.5GHz Snapdragon 801 processor with 2GB of RAM, an IR remote, NFC, Bluetooth 4.0 BLE/ANT+, Cat 4 LTE (up to 150Mbps down/50Mbps up) and your choice of 16GB or 32GB of internal storage; oddly, 64GB doesn't appear to be an option, though you can add up to 128GB via a microSD card if needed. All told, it's very much a run-of-the-mill Galaxy S flagship, but there are enough new hardware features and software tweaks to make it feel fresh. | samsung.galaxy.s5.35 |@lemmatized samsung:19 galaxy:9 preview:1 simpler:1 way:1 glam:2 others:1 year:5 take:5 best:3 material:2 slap:2 together:2 premium:2 flagship:5 model:3 call:2 version:4 come:6 bit:2 earlier:2 early:2 iteration:2 less:3 excited:2 see:4 become:2 star:2 show:3 mobile:2 world:2 congress:2 new:17 device:5 ship:2 april:4 stage:2 specifically:2 mention:2 launch:2 market:2 although:2 exact:2 pricing:2 availability:2 still:6 unknown:2 feature:13 refreshed:2 design:6 language:3 yet:2 anyone:2 use:6 g:2 phone:8 recently:2 immediately:2 recognize:2 despite:2 familiar:2 useful:2 hardware:4 include:2 fingerprint:7 scanner:6 heart:3 rate:3 sensor:5 toned:2 touchwiz:3 ui:2 top:3 android:4 kitkat:2 perhaps:2 big:3 surprise:3 however:2 overload:2 prized:2 smartphone:2 heap:2 dose:2 brand:2 marked:2 departure:2 company:4 previous:4 strategy:2 cram:2 every:2 software:3 sun:2 lead:2 u:3 wonder:2 relate:2 recent:2 agreement:2 dial:2 back:5 customization:2 else:2 read:2 deep:2 dive:2 gallery:1 photo:3 retain:1 super:1 amoled:1 panel:1 slightly:2 large:1 inch:1 mind:1 view:1 experience:1 pretty:1 much:5 predecessor:1 additionally:2 swappable:1 cover:1 microsd:2 slot:1 removable:1 battery:1 high:1 capacity:1 last:2 also:7 certified:1 add:2 element:1 water:2 dust:1 resistance:1 never:1 enjoy:1 user:2 unless:1 count:1 active:1 result:1 micro:1 usb:1 port:1 bottom:1 protect:2 tab:2 keep:1 get:2 inside:1 say:2 leather:1 like:2 basically:1 mean:1 fancy:1 look:3 polycarbonate:2 build:2 already:1 similar:1 note:3 edition:1 feel:2 different:2 quite:1 soft:1 small:1 dimple:1 actually:2 remind:1 original:1 nexus:1 though:2 side:1 metallic:1 finish:1 rep:1 confirm:1 make:3 blend:1 glass:1 fiber:1 confident:1 durability:1 many:1 one:1 talk:1 point:1 easy:1 response:1 apple:2 touch:1 id:1 implementation:1 iphone:1 hard:1 primary:1 motivation:1 manufacturer:1 integrate:1 sure:1 win:2 case:4 work:3 swipe:2 finger:2 home:1 button:1 handy:1 addition:1 obligatory:1 unlock:1 option:2 let:1 private:1 data:1 locker:1 confidential:1 information:2 want:2 announce:1 partnership:1 paypal:1 allow:1 online:1 payment:1 method:1 limited:1 time:4 notice:1 pick:1 long:1 slowly:1 enough:2 swiping:1 hurry:1 chance:1 success:1 likely:2 drop:1 unfortunately:1 wait:1 hear:1 exactly:2 implement:1 security:1 privacy:1 concern:1 update:1 soon:1 know:2 detail:2 major:1 rear:1 module:1 led:1 flash:1 conjunction:1 health:2 act:2 personal:1 life:1 coach:1 sort:2 monitor:2 pulse:1 hold:1 leave:2 rest:2 continue:1 often:1 remembers:1 history:1 even:2 go:1 effort:1 graph:1 offer:3 relevant:1 pedometer:1 food:1 plan:1 open:1 sdk:1 developer:1 incorporate:1 tech:1 apps:1 course:1 put:1 emphasis:1 camera:2 well:1 megapixel:2 uhd:1 record:1 capability:1 real:1 hdr:1 video:1 couple:1 mode:3 excite:1 review:1 first:1 introduce:1 selective:1 focus:1 nokia:1 refocus:1 lens:1 change:1 depth:1 field:1 image:1 shot:3 essentially:1 standard:1 suite:1 eraser:1 drama:1 ability:1 difficulty:1 fact:1 whereas:1 able:1 waste:1 extra:1 lastly:1 front:1 philosophy:1 behind:1 involve:1 modern:1 interface:1 appearance:1 seem:1 face:1 consequence:1 google:1 intervention:1 menu:1 magazine:1 around:1 accessible:1 right:1 stats:1 shock:1 line:1 snapdragon:1 processor:1 ram:1 ir:1 remote:1 nfc:1 bluetooth:1 ble:1 ant:1 cat:1 lte:1 choice:1 internal:1 storage:1 oddly:1 appear:1 via:1 card:1 need:1 tell:1 run:1 mill:1 tweak:1 fresh:1 |@ngramms samsung_galaxy:1 flagship_model:2 call_galaxy:2 mobile_world:2 april_stage:2 launch_april:2 design_language:3 recently_immediately:2 samsung_flagship:2 familiar_design:2 hardware_feature:4 fingerprint_scanner:4 heart_rate:3 touchwiz_ui:2 brand_feature:2 previous_strategy:2 software_feature:2 recent_agreement:2 android_device:2 read_deep:2 gallery_photo:1 super_amoled:1 slightly_large:1 view_experience:1 microsd_slot:1 removable_battery:1 water_dust:1 usb_port:1 galaxy_note:1 original_nexus:1 finish_company:1 galaxy_phone:1 scanner_work:1 swipe_finger:1 phone_case:1 online_payment:1 pick_fingerprint:1 finger_sensor:1 monitor_samsung:1 megapixel_sensor:1 real_time:1 photo_video:1 samsung_introduce:1 selective_focus:1 depth_field:1 megapixel_camera:1 user_interface:1 processor_ram:1 microsd_card:1 galaxy_flagship:1 make_feel:1 |

premier.league.55 | Premier League clubs agree new cost controls The 20 Premier League clubs have agreed, in principle, to introduce radical new cost controls. There are two main proposals on the table - a break-even rule and a cap on the amount clubs can increase their wage bills by each season. Club chief executives have now been asked to produce detailed plans for exactly how these proposals will work. These rules would mark a major change for the clubs, which made cumulative losses of £361m in 2010-11. Champions Manchester City, for example, made a £97.9m loss in their latest set of results, which were revealed last Friday. City and Fulham are the only clubs opposed to any spending controls, BBC Sport understands. However, any new Premier League rule requires the approval of only 14 of the 20 clubs in order to be introduced. With the Premier League's new three-year television deals expected to break through the £5bn barrier from 2013, momentum is growing to find a way of preventing the majority of that cash going straight to players and agents. There have now been six meetings of top-flight chairmen where cost controls have been discussed without any concrete decisions being made. The next meeting will be on 6 February. | premier.league.55 |@lemmatized premier:4 league:4 club:7 agree:2 new:4 cost:3 control:4 principle:1 introduce:2 radical:1 two:1 main:1 proposal:2 table:1 break:2 even:1 rule:3 cap:1 amount:1 increase:1 wage:1 bill:1 season:1 chief:1 executive:1 ask:1 produce:1 detailed:1 plan:1 exactly:1 work:1 would:1 mark:1 major:1 change:1 make:3 cumulative:1 loss:2 champion:1 manchester:1 city:2 example:1 late:1 set:1 result:1 reveal:1 last:1 friday:1 fulham:1 oppose:1 spending:1 bbc:1 sport:1 understands:1 however:1 require:1 approval:1 order:1 three:1 year:1 television:1 deal:1 expect:1 barrier:1 momentum:1 grow:1 find:1 way:1 prevent:1 majority:1 cash:1 go:1 straight:1 player:1 agent:1 six:1 meeting:2 top:1 flight:1 chairman:1 discuss:1 without:1 concrete:1 decision:1 next:1 february:1 |@ngramms premier_league:4 cost_control:3 club_agree:1 wage_bill:1 season_club:1 chief_executive:1 club_make:1 manchester_city:1 make_loss:1 television_deal:1 expect_break:1 decision_make:1 |
debt.crisis.greece.81 | Greek austerity measures could violate human rights, UN expert says 30 June 2011 – The United Nations independent expert on foreign debt and human rights warned today that the austerity measures and structural reforms proposed to solve Greece's debt crisis may result in violations of the basic human rights of the country's people, the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) reported. "The implementation of the second package of austerity measures and structural reforms, which includes a wholesale privatization of state-owned enterprises and assets, is likely to have a serious impact on basic social services and therefore the enjoyment of human rights by the Greek people, particularly the most vulnerable sectors of the population such as the poor, elderly, unemployed and persons with disabilities," said Cephas Lumina, who reports to the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva. "The rights to food, water, adequate housing and work under fair and equitable conditions should not be compromised by the implementation of austerity measures," he said, urging the Government to "strike a careful balance between austerity and the realization of human rights, taking into account the primacy of States' human rights obligations." Mr. Lumina also called upon the authorities to maintain some fiscal leeway to meet its people's basic human rights, particularly economic, social and cultural rights. "Tax rises, public expenditure cuts and privatization measures have to be implemented in such a way that they do not result in unbearable suffering of the people," he said. "Debts can only be paid out of income," Mr. Lumina said. "A shrinking economy cannot generate any revenue and contributes to a reduced capacity to repay the debt. More time should have been allowed for the restructuring measures already in place to work." The independent expert also called on the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the European Union (EU) and the European Central Bank (ECB) to remain aware of the human rights impact of the policies they design in attempting to resolve the sovereign debt crises in Greece and other countries. "There will be no lasting solution to the sovereign debt problem if the human rights of the people are not taken into account," said Mr. Lumina, who serves in an unpaid capacity. | debt.crisis.greece.81 |@lemmatized greek:2 austerity:5 measure:6 could:1 violate:1 human:11 right:13 un:2 expert:3 say:6 june:1 united:1 nation:1 independent:2 foreign:1 debt:6 warn:1 today:1 structural:2 reform:2 propose:1 solve:1 greece:2 crisis:2 may:1 result:2 violation:1 basic:3 country:2 people:5 office:1 high:1 commissioner:1 ohchr:1 report:2 implementation:2 second:1 package:1 include:1 wholesale:1 privatization:2 state:2 enterprise:1 asset:1 likely:1 serious:1 impact:2 social:2 service:1 therefore:1 enjoyment:1 particularly:2 vulnerable:1 sector:1 population:1 poor:1 elderly:1 unemployed:1 person:1 disability:1 cephas:1 lumen:4 council:1 geneva:1 food:1 water:1 adequate:1 housing:1 work:2 fair:1 equitable:1 condition:1 compromise:1 urge:1 government:1 strike:1 careful:1 balance:1 realization:1 take:2 account:2 primacy:1 obligation:1 mr:3 also:2 call:2 upon:1 authority:1 maintain:1 fiscal:1 leeway:1 meet:1 economic:1 cultural:1 tax:1 rise:1 public:1 expenditure:1 cut:1 implement:1 way:1 unbearable:1 suffering:1 pay:1 income:1 shrink:1 economy:1 cannot:1 generate:1 revenue:1 contribute:1 reduce:1 capacity:2 repay:1 time:1 allow:1 restructuring:1 already:1 place:1 international:1 monetary:1 fund:1 imf:1 european:2 union:1 eu:1 central:1 bank:1 ecb:1 remain:1 aware:1 policy:1 design:1 attempt:1 resolve:1 sovereign:2 lasting:1 solution:1 problem:1 serve:1 unpaid:1 |@ngramms austerity_measure:4 united_nation:1 debt_crisis:2 social_service:1 greek_people:1 economic_social:1 tax_rise:1 fund_imf:1 european_union:1 central_bank:1 |
tohoku.earthquake.tsunami.12 | Kan names quake at pep talk Prime Minister Naoto Kan said Friday that preparations for restoration and reconstruction work have begun in disaster-hit areas and Japan will prevail over the hardships caused by the massive earthquake and tsunami on March 11. He did not, however, offer an outlook on when the damaged Fukushima No. 1 nuclear plant will be stabilized. Kan Friday night marked three weeks since the deadly tsunami ripped up the northeast coast by naming the temblor that spawned it the Great Eastern Japan Earthquake (Higashi Nihon Dai-Shinsai). "I am confident that we will overcome the Great Eastern Japan Earthquake . . . and re-create a wonderful Japan," he said. "And I promise that I myself and my Cabinet will stand at the forefront and devote all of our energy" to rebuilding it. To prepare for the restoration, Kan said he will freeze part of the fiscal 2011 budget, which cleared the Diet Tuesday, and transfer the money to a supplementary budget. "I want to prepare the first extra budget and use it to get rid of debris, build temporary housing, secure jobs and restore industry," Kan said, adding the government will submit the first legislation for the plan this month. He also said a special panel of experts and local leaders will be set up by April 11 to "draft a blueprint" for rebuilding damaged areas. As for Fukushima No. 1, Kan said that once the situation is stabilized, he intends to look at various aspects of the crisis, including how to balance national electricity supplies in the future. Kan did not, however, clarify his position on whether Japan should reduce its heavy reliance on nuclear power. "Of course solar, wind and biomass energy sources that do not emit carbon dioxide are very important," Kan said. "But in a sense, I think that nuclear power should also get credit from the viewpoint of not emitting carbon dioxide and that naturally, we need to continue thinking about how to balance supply." Campbell impressed WASHINGTON (Kyodo) Kurt Campbell, the senior U.S. State Department official in charge of East Asia, voiced high praise Thursday for the way Japan is coping with the March 11 devastation. | tohoku.earthquake.tsunami.12 |@lemmatized kan:8 name:2 quake:1 pep:1 talk:1 prime:1 minister:1 naoto:1 say:7 friday:2 preparation:1 restoration:2 reconstruction:1 work:1 begin:1 disaster:1 hit:1 area:2 japan:6 prevail:1 hardship:1 cause:1 massive:1 earthquake:3 tsunami:2 march:2 however:2 offer:1 outlook:1 damage:2 fukushima:2 nuclear:3 plant:1 stabilize:2 night:1 mark:1 three:1 week:1 since:1 deadly:1 rip:1 northeast:1 coast:1 temblor:1 spawn:1 great:2 eastern:2 higashi:1 nihon:1 dai:1 shinsai:1 confident:1 overcome:1 create:1 wonderful:1 promise:1 cabinet:1 stand:1 forefront:1 devote:1 energy:2 rebuild:2 prepare:2 freeze:1 part:1 fiscal:1 budget:3 clear:1 diet:1 tuesday:1 transfer:1 money:1 supplementary:1 want:1 first:2 extra:1 use:1 get:2 rid:1 debris:1 build:1 temporary:1 housing:1 secure:1 job:1 restore:1 industry:1 add:1 government:1 submit:1 legislation:1 plan:1 month:1 also:2 special:1 panel:1 expert:1 local:1 leader:1 set:1 april:1 draft:1 blueprint:1 situation:1 intend:1 look:1 various:1 aspect:1 crisis:1 include:1 balance:2 national:1 electricity:1 supply:2 future:1 clarify:1 position:1 whether:1 reduce:1 heavy:1 reliance:1 power:2 course:1 solar:1 wind:1 biomass:1 source:1 emit:2 carbon:2 dioxide:2 important:1 sense:1 think:2 credit:1 viewpoint:1 naturally:1 need:1 continue:1 campbell:2 impress:1 washington:1 kyodo:1 kurt:1 senior:1 u:1 state:1 department:1 official:1 charge:1 east:1 asia:1 voice:1 high:1 praise:1 thursday:1 way:1 cop:1 devastation:1 |@ngramms prime_minister:1 work_begin:1 area_japan:1 earthquake_tsunami:1 nuclear_plant:1 friday_night:1 great_eastern:2 japan_earthquake:2 transfer_money:1 plan_month:1 nuclear_power:2 state_department:1 |
samsung.galaxy.s5.15 | Samsung announces Galaxy S5, launching in the US in April Samsung sticks to a proven formula for this year's refresh. BARCELONA, SPAIN—We're live at Mobile World Congress, where Samsung is holding its "Unpacked 5" press event. The company has just announced its newest flagship smartphone, the Galaxy S5, and it says the new phone will launch in the US in April. Samsung isn't really changing its formula with this new phone, which is very much in the mold of last year's Galaxy S4 and 2012's Galaxy S III. It's still a rounded rectangle made primarily of plastic, and it still has a removable plastic back that conceals a SIM slot and a removable battery. The phone is a little larger than the Galaxy S4, but not as large as a "phablet" like the Galaxy Note 3—leaked comparison shots show the S5 right in between the two. The phone still has a camera, LED flash, and speaker mounted on the back, but the micro-USB 2.0 port in the Galaxy S4 has been exchanged for the same larger, faster micro-USB 3.0 port used in the Note 3. The phone will be offered in black, blue, gold, and white, and more "designer colors" and patterns have been promised for the future. The phone's soft-touch plastic back has a "unique, perforated rear pattern" reminiscent of the 2012 Nexus 7. It should increase the phone's grippiness, a welcome improvement after a couple generations of slippery, smooth plastic. As we expected from the new button layout of the Galaxy NotePro and TabPro, Samsung has finally ditched the legacy Android menu button in favor of the Google-recommended button set of Recent apps, Home, and Back. The buttons are still reversed compared to the standard layout used in Nexus phones—the Back button is to the right of the Home button and Recent Apps is on the left. Both of those are still capacitive buttons built in to the bottom bezel, while Home is a physical button that now integrates a fingerprint sensor. Just as with Apple's TouchID technology in the iPhone 5S, registered fingerprints can be used to unlock the phone and make mobile payments. Fingerprints are reportedly encrypted and stored locally. The S5 is running Android 4.4.2, which is still being skinned with a version of Samsung's TouchWiz. The Settings menu appears to have been reorganized, presenting a grid of icons to tap instead of a list of settings to scroll through. A new Kids Mode will give younger users access to a few games or other apps, letting your kids play with Mom or Dad's phone without deleting all of the important data on it. We'll have to wait to get hands-on time with the phone to see what other tweaks Samsung has made to the software. The phone has a 5.1-inch 1080p Super AMOLED display, slightly larger than last year's Galaxy S4. Samsung says the display can now be set to be "extremely dim" to prevent it from bothering those around you in the dark. It's also one of the first devices to use a Snapdragon 801 from Qualcomm. This "one louder" version of the Snapdragon 800 is architecturally identical, but it comes with faster CPU, GPU, and memory bus speeds, a bone Qualcomm has thrown to OEMs while it finishes up work on the true Snapdragon 800 successor, the 805. The S5 also includes 2GB of RAM, 16 or 32GB of storage that can be expanded with up to 128GB of microSD storage, and a 2800 mAh battery. Samsung promises 10 hours of Web browsing on LTE and 12 hours of video playback on a single charge. It measures 142.0 x 72.5 x 8.1 mm and weighs 145 g, slightly larger and heavier than the Galaxy S4's 136.6 x 69.8 x 7.9 mm and 130 g. It is IP67 dust and water resistant, which should help prevent some damage from dust and dirt. The new phone supports 802.11ac MIMO, which should allow for maximum transfer speeds of up to 867Mbps—many of last year's flagships included single-stream 802.11ac that was capped at 433Mbps. Category 4 LTE from Qualcomm allows LTE speeds of up to 150Mbps down and 50Mbps up, as long as your carrier supports them. Samsung says that its "download booster" technology can use Wi-Fi and LTE simultaneously to provide faster download speeds, though you'll want to be careful not to eat up your monthly data allotment by overusing the feature. Bluetooth 4.0 and NFC are also included, as is an IR blaster for use with television sets. Like many other Galaxy phones, the S5 features compatibility with all of Samsung's wearable devices: the original Galaxy Gear, the new Tizen-based Gear 2 and Gear 2 Neo, and the new fitness-focused Gear Fit. The Galaxy S5 also includes some fitness hardware of its own—there's a heart rate sensor located next to the LED flash. Hold your finger over the sensor and it will track your current heart rate. The S5 includes a 16MP rear camera with an LED flash and a 2.0MP front camera for video chatting. The camera features a hybrid autofocus lens and an improved image sensor. The rear camera promises 0.3 second autofocus times and "advanced HDR" capabilities, as well as a new Selective Focus feature that can simulate a lens with a shallow depth-of-field. Samsung says the phone's camera interface has also been revamped. We'll be going hands-on with the phone and putting up more photos and impressions soon.

malaysia.airlines.flight.25 | Search for Malaysia Flight 370 resumes in Indian Ocean The hunt for Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 resumed Sunday night as crews extended their search into the Indian Ocean, more than six months after the jet vanished from the air. The GO Phoenix, the first of three ships that will spend up to a year searching for the wreckage far off Australia's west coast, is expected to begin hunting for the jet for the next 12 days before returning to shore to refuel, The Associated Press reported. Crews will use sonar, video cameras, and jet fuel sensors to scour the ocean floor for the Boeing 777. The wide-bodied jet and its 239 passengers disappeared without a trace on March 8 during a red-eye flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing. There is still not a single trace of the wreckage, even after the most expensive and widespread airplane recovery mission ever launched. The search was placed on hold temporarily four months ago to allow researchers time to map the ocean floor, more than 1,000 miles southwest of Australia. Investigators will comb through a 60,000 square kilometer search site, where they believe the aircraft ran out of fuel and crashed. In a few weeks, the Dutch contractor Fugro will provide two other ships to join the Malaysian-contracted GO Phoenix. One of the vessels will be an unmanned submarine equipped with even more advanced sonar technology, said NBC News' Tom Costello. The disappearance of the airline was one of two tragedies within four months, as another Malaysia airline — Flight 17 — was shot down over Ukraine in July. President Barack Obama said that pro-Russian separatists downed the jet by a surface-to-air missile launched from a region in eastern Ukraine. He called for an immediate cease-fire between the two fighting countries, Ukraine and Russia, so that a credible international investigation could be conducted. The two tragedies have devastated Malaysia Airlines. | malaysia.airlines.flight.25 |@lemmatized search:5 malaysia:4 flight:4 resume:2 indian:2 ocean:4 hunt:2 airline:4 sunday:1 night:1 crew:2 extend:1 six:1 month:3 jet:5 vanish:1 air:2 go:2 phoenix:2 first:1 three:1 ship:2 spend:1 year:1 wreckage:2 far:1 australia:2 west:1 coast:1 expect:1 begin:1 next:1 day:1 return:1 shore:1 refuel:1 associated:1 press:1 report:1 use:1 sonar:2 video:1 camera:1 fuel:2 sensor:1 scour:1 floor:2 boeing:1 wide:1 body:1 passenger:1 disappear:1 without:1 trace:2 march:1 red:1 eye:1 kuala:1 lumpur:1 beijing:1 still:1 single:1 even:2 expensive:1 widespread:1 airplane:1 recovery:1 mission:1 ever:1 launch:2 place:1 hold:1 temporarily:1 four:2 ago:1 allow:1 researcher:1 time:1 map:1 mile:1 southwest:1 investigator:1 comb:1 square:1 kilometer:1 site:1 believe:1 aircraft:1 run:1 crash:1 week:1 dutch:1 contractor:1 fugro:1 provide:1 two:4 join:1 malaysian:1 contract:1 one:2 vessel:1 unmanned:1 submarine:1 equip:1 advanced:1 technology:1 say:2 nbc:1 news:1 tom:1 costello:1 disappearance:1 tragedy:2 within:1 another:1 shoot:1 ukraine:3 july:1 president:1 barack:1 obama:1 pro:1 russian:1 separatist:1 surface:1 missile:1 region:1 eastern:1 call:1 immediate:1 cease:1 fire:1 fighting:1 country:1 russia:1 credible:1 international:1 investigation:1 could:1 conduct:1 devastate:1 |@ngramms search_malaysia:1 indian_ocean:2 malaysia_airline_flight:2 sunday_night:1 search_wreckage:1 west_coast:1 press_report:1 video_camera:1 jet_fuel:1 ocean_floor:2 jet_passenger:1 red_eye:1 kuala_lumpur:1 month_ago:1 run_fuel:1 ship_join:1 president_barack_obama:1 malaysia_airline:1 |

samsung.galaxy.s5.36 | Android 5.0 Lollipop starts to flavor Samsung Galaxy S5 Latest edition of Android pops up in Poland for the GS5 and should wend its way through Europe before too long, says SamMobile. Android 5.0 Lollipop has apparently begun its worldwide tour to reach owners of Samsung's Galaxy S5. Released by Google on November 3, the latest flavor of Google's mobile operating system is now available for the GS5 in Poland, blog site SamMobile said Wednesday. Poland has been used by mobile device makers as a starting point to test out new Android updates before it spreads around the world. As such, the Polish launch is a good sign that Lollipop should soon start to pop up in other regions. The Polish version of the Galaxy S5 has the same model number as the version used in Europe, according to blog site SlashGear, which means European users could be next on the list. Samsung is also likely to launch Android 5.0 in its home base of South Korea at some point in the near future. A similar scenario has played out with LG's G3 smartphone. Owners of the phone residing in Poland were first on the list to receive a bite of Lollipop. Just a couple of weeks later, G3 owners in South Korea started seeing the update appear on their devices. Android 5.0 could reach GS5 owners in other regions before the month and year are over. The US is a different story, however. Android updates in the US can take awhile as they have to be tested by not only the device makers but also the mobile carriers who must also certify and plan the rollout. As such, Galaxy S5 owners in the US are unlikely to get a lick of Lollipop until 2015. Android 5.0 is likely on the wish list of many Android users in part because it offers several changes, among them a new design aesthetic with animations and other visual effects. Notifications now appear on the lock screen. A new menu called Overview shows running apps as a stack of cards, and a new Battery Saver mode drills down the CPU and turns off background data when a device is running low on juice. Motorola already started deploying Android 5.0 for its Moto X and Moto G phones in November. Google also started the update for its existing Nexus devices, such as the Nexus 4 and Nexus 5 smartphones and the Nexus 7 and Nexus 10 tablets, but some users will have to wait awhile. A Google+ post from November 12 said that "the Android Lollipop rollout has started and will soon be available on most Nexus devices in the coming weeks." Samsung did not immediately respond to a request for comment. | samsung.galaxy.s5.36 |@lemmatized android:11 lollipop:6 start:7 flavor:2 samsung:4 galaxy:4 late:2 edition:1 pop:2 poland:4 wend:1 way:1 europe:2 long:1 say:3 sammobile:2 apparently:1 begin:1 worldwide:1 tour:1 reach:2 owner:5 release:1 google:4 november:3 mobile:3 operating:1 system:1 available:2 blog:2 site:2 wednesday:1 use:2 device:6 maker:2 point:2 test:2 new:4 update:4 spread:1 around:1 world:1 polish:2 launch:2 good:1 sign:1 soon:2 region:2 version:2 model:1 number:1 accord:1 slashgear:1 mean:1 european:1 user:3 could:2 next:1 list:3 also:4 likely:2 home:1 base:1 south:2 korea:2 near:1 future:1 similar:1 scenario:1 play:1 lg:1 smartphone:1 phone:2 residing:1 first:1 receive:1 bite:1 couple:1 week:2 later:1 see:1 appear:2 month:1 year:1 u:3 different:1 story:1 however:1 take:1 awhile:2 carrier:1 must:1 certify:1 plan:1 rollout:2 unlikely:1 get:1 lick:1 wish:1 many:1 part:1 offer:1 several:1 change:1 among:1 design:1 aesthetic:1 animation:1 visual:1 effect:1 notification:1 lock:1 screen:1 menu:1 call:1 overview:1 show:1 run:2 apps:1 stack:1 card:1 battery:1 saver:1 mode:1 drill:1 cpu:1 turn:1 background:1 data:1 low:1 juice:1 motorola:1 already:1 deploy:1 moto:2 x:1 g:1 exist:1 nexus:6 smartphones:1 tablet:1 wait:1 post:1 coming:1 immediately:1 respond:1 request:1 comment:1 |@ngramms samsung_galaxy:2 reach_owner:2 google_mobile:1 mobile_device:1 android_update:2 europe_accord:1 launch_android:1 south_korea:2 smartphone_owner:1 device_maker:1 mobile_carrier:1 android_user:1 run_apps:1 run_low:1 nexus_device:2 nexus_nexus:2 samsung_immediately:1 respond_request:1 |
michelle.obama.139 | Michelle Obama makes Vogue cover President Barack Obama's wife Michelle is the cover girl for the March edition of fashion magazine Vogue. It is only the second time an American First Lady has taken the place of a model on a Vogue cover - the other was Hillary Clinton in 1998. Mrs Obama, who was photographed wearing outfits she chose herself, says she is aware her wardrobe is under scrutiny. "I'm not going to pretend that I don't care about it. But I also have to be practical," she told Vogue magazine. Annie Leibovitz photographed Mrs Obama wearing a magenta silk dress designed by Jason Wu for the cover portrait. It is the second time she has chosen to wear one of his creations for a high-profile public appearance. She wore a long white gown by Wu for the inauguration balls on 20 January. Mrs Obama's sense of style has proved influential. On the day she dressed her family in clothes from J Crew for her husband's inauguration, the company's shares leapt 10%. In the accompanying interview for Vogue, Mrs Obama also talks about her role as a social hostess. "We want entertaining in the White House to feel like America, that we are reminded of all the many facets of our culture. The Latino community, the Asian-American community, the African-American community... hip-hop, spoken word - we want to bring the youth in, for them to hear their voices in this," she said. On her self-declared role as "mom-in-chief" she will try to take her daughters Malia and Sasha to school every morning, though she acknowledges this may not always be possible. "I like to be a presence in my kids' school. I want to know the teachers; I want to know the parents." Apart from Bess Truman, Vogue has photographed the wife of every American president since 1929 when President Herbert Hoover's wife, Lou Henry Hoover, was featured. | michelle.obama.139 |@lemmatized michelle:2 obama:6 make:1 vogue:6 cover:4 president:3 barack:1 wife:3 girl:1 march:1 edition:1 fashion:1 magazine:2 second:2 time:2 american:4 first:1 lady:1 take:2 place:1 model:1 hillary:1 clinton:1 mr:3 photograph:3 wear:4 outfit:1 choose:2 say:2 aware:1 wardrobe:1 scrutiny:1 go:1 pretend:1 care:1 also:2 practical:1 tell:1 annie:1 leibovitz:1 magenta:1 silk:1 dress:2 design:1 jason:1 wu:2 portrait:1 one:1 creation:1 high:1 profile:1 public:1 appearance:1 long:1 white:2 gown:1 inauguration:2 ball:1 january:1 mrs:1 sense:1 style:1 prove:1 influential:1 day:1 family:1 clothes:1 j:1 crew:1 husband:1 company:1 share:1 leap:1 accompany:1 interview:1 talk:1 role:2 social:1 hostess:1 want:4 entertain:1 house:1 feel:1 like:2 america:1 remind:1 many:1 facet:1 culture:1 latino:1 community:3 asian:1 african:1 hip:1 hop:1 speak:1 word:1 bring:1 youth:1 hear:1 voice:1 self:1 declared:1 mom:1 chief:1 try:1 daughter:1 malia:1 sasha:1 school:2 every:2 morning:1 though:1 acknowledge:1 may:1 always:1 possible:1 presence:1 kid:1 know:2 teacher:1 parent:1 apart:1 truman:1 since:1 herbert:1 hoover:2 lou:1 henry:1 feature:1 |@ngramms michelle_obama:1 president_barack_obama:1 wife_michelle:1 fashion_magazine:1 hillary_clinton:1 mr_obama:3 vogue_magazine:1 dress_design:1 high_profile:1 white_house:1 american_community:1 african_american:1 mom_chief:1 daughter_malia:1 kid_school:1 american_president:1 |
premier.league.73 | Premier League is world's favourite league The extraordinary globalisation of the Premier League could make English football the first world sport to earn more money from their supporters abroad than at home. Telegraph TV: Premier League highlights In pics: Premier League action Football fans' forum An estimated worldwide audience of one billion watched Manchester United play Arsenal on Saturday and, if growth rates continue, the revenue from overseas broadcast rights will eventually exceed those paid by companies for the domestic rights. And a new study, soon to be published by Deloitte, will show that the Premier League have risen well above Serie A in Italy and La Liga in Spain over the past decade to become the richest league across Europe by €1 billion (£0.7 billion). Related Articles Sir Alex Ferguson's fire forging a new United 05 Nov 2007 "The Premier League has just accelerated from every other league in the world," said Dan Jones, a partner in the sports business group at Deloitte. "I can think of no other example of the overseas rights overtaking the domestic rights. I don't think it is inevitable but I have heard people in the industry predict that the next time around [in 2010] the overseas rights will match those domestically. You only have to look at the world population to see the potential for growth." Premier League games are broadcast to 600 million homes in 202 countries across Europe, Asia, Australasia, Oceania, Africa, the Americas and the Middle East. And, after doubling the value of those rights this year to £625 million, there is a feeling they could eventually be worth more than the £1.7 billion currently being paid for the domestic rights by Sky and Setanta. The vast potential only underlines the likelihood of more foreign ownership of Premier League clubs and of kick-off times eventually being changed to suit fans abroad. The huge audience for Saturday's lunchtime match was boosted by it being screened during the evening across the Far East. The broadcaster for much of the Asian market is ESPN Star Sports, the media giant jointly owned by Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation and Walt Disney. Between now and Christmas, Liverpool and Arsenal will play just one match each at 3pm on a Saturday, while Chelsea and Manchester United will play at the traditional time twice apiece. The recent NFL game at Wembley has also opened eyes to the idea of playing domestic matches in different countries. The Premier League are well aware of the interest abroad, but reject any suggestion that the game could get taken away from the traditional supporter. "It is the whole package which is popular," a spokesman said, "the quality on the pitch, state-of-the-art stadiums as well as the fact that so many nations are represented by the players. But it is also important to remember that one of the biggest selling points of the league is full stadiums and the passionate support of fans in England. That remains the cornerstone of the league." | premier.league.73 |@lemmatized premier:9 league:14 world:4 favourite:1 extraordinary:1 globalisation:1 could:3 make:1 english:1 football:2 first:1 sport:3 earn:1 money:1 supporter:2 abroad:3 home:2 telegraph:1 tv:1 highlight:1 pic:1 action:1 fan:3 forum:1 estimate:1 worldwide:1 audience:2 one:3 billion:4 watch:1 manchester:2 united:2 play:4 arsenal:2 saturday:3 growth:2 rate:1 continue:1 revenue:1 overseas:3 broadcast:2 right:7 eventually:3 exceed:1 pay:2 company:1 domestic:4 new:2 study:1 soon:1 publish:1 deloitte:2 show:1 rise:1 well:3 serie:1 italy:1 la:1 liga:1 spain:1 past:1 decade:1 become:1 rich:1 across:3 europe:2 related:1 article:1 sir:1 alex:1 ferguson:1 fire:1 forge:1 nov:1 accelerate:1 every:1 say:2 dan:1 jones:1 partner:1 business:1 group:1 think:2 example:1 overtake:1 inevitable:1 hear:1 people:1 industry:1 predict:1 next:1 time:3 around:1 match:4 domestically:1 look:1 population:1 see:1 potential:2 game:3 million:2 country:2 asia:1 australasia:1 oceania:1 africa:1 america:1 middle:1 east:2 double:1 value:1 year:1 feeling:1 worth:1 currently:1 sky:1 setanta:1 vast:1 underline:1 likelihood:1 foreign:1 ownership:1 club:1 kick:1 change:1 suit:1 huge:1 lunchtime:1 boost:1 screen:1 evening:1 far:1 broadcaster:1 much:1 asian:1 market:1 espn:1 star:1 medium:1 giant:1 jointly:1 rupert:1 murdoch:1 news:1 corporation:1 walt:1 disney:1 christmas:1 liverpool:1 chelsea:1 unite:1 traditional:2 twice:1 apiece:1 recent:1 nfl:1 wembley:1 also:2 open:1 eye:1 idea:1 different:1 aware:1 interest:1 reject:1 suggestion:1 get:1 take:1 away:1 whole:1 package:1 popular:1 spokesman:1 quality:1 pitch:1 state:1 art:1 stadium:2 fact:1 many:1 nation:1 represent:1 player:1 important:1 remember:1 big:1 sell:1 point:1 full:1 passionate:1 support:1 england:1 remain:1 cornerstone:1 |@ngramms premier_league:9 english_football:1 football_fan:1 manchester_united:1 billion_billion:1 league_world:1 sport_business:1 middle_east:1 worth_billion:1 sport_medium:1 liverpool_arsenal:1 match_saturday:1 manchester_unite:1 open_eye:1 league_full:1 |
premier.league.40 | Liverpool get in Champions League Liverpool have been given the chance to defend their Champions League crown after Uefa handed them a place in the first qualifying round for next season. The Reds beat AC Milan in last season's final but, because they finished out of the Premiership's top four, were not guaranteed entry in 2005-2006. Uefa's executive committee changed its rules on Friday to allow Liverpool in. "We wish to express our thanks to those who supported us and campaigned," said chief executive Rick Parry. The key points: Liverpool get the smallest share of England's television money if they reach the group stages. But any other English teams involved - from Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester United and Everton - will still get less money than they would have done were Liverpool not involved. Liverpool get no "country protection" preventing them meeting other English clubs. But they are seeded. This means they could face Everton in the third qualifying round, but not Manchester United, and could be in a group with Chelsea, but not Arsenal. In future, the title holders will be entered automatically. Rafael Benitez's men will now face a first qualifying round first leg on 12 or 13 July and a second leg on 19 or 20 July. That means they will now probably have to cancel scheduled friendlies against Bayer Leverkusen and Cologne. And if successful in the first qualifying round, they will probably also have to cancel a pre-season tour of Japan, where they are due to play Shimizu S-Pulse and Kashima Antlers. Uefa chief executive Lars-Christer Olsson told BBC Radio Five Live the decision by the 14-man executive committee was unanimous. "Unanimous means that everybody is supporting it. By definition, that is also the case here. "There were no discussions actually on where they should enter the competition because everybody was of the opinion they should be given the opportunity but they have to start from the beginning. "They could not be allowed to get into the 32 for example." But while there is joy for Liverpool, there has been disappointment for Manchester City. Man City blow despite Reds U-turn The Uefa Cup spot which Liverpool had earned for finishing fifth in the Premiership will not transfer to another English club so City, who would have been next in line, will not be in Europe. And it is likely that Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester United and Everton will be unhappy at potentially sharing the television money with one other club. Uefa spokesman William Gaillard admitted splitting the pot five ways rather than four will be "a burden on the other English-based clubs". If Manchester United or Everton fail to reach the group stage but Liverpool do the pot could go back to being split four ways - but anyone involved from England will still get less because of the Reds. If four English clubs reach the group stages, Chelsea will get 40%, Arsenal 30% and two out of Manchester United, Liverpool and Everton will get 15% each. If all five get through Uefa will think again. But while the others will feel hard done by, even Liverpool have suffered in comparison with other Champions League winners. Normally the title holders get 30% of the money for their country if they are not also the domestic champions. Meanwhile Uefa insists the saga which has dogged it since Liverpool finished fifth domestically and then won the Champions League will never be repeated. "The Uefa executive committee decided to amend the regulations for the future editions of the Champions League, so that the holders will have the right to defend their title and therefore qualify automatically," said a statement on the organisation's website. The new system is in marked contrast to 2000, when Real Madrid won the Champions League but finished outside of Spain's qualification positions. On that occasion fourth-placed Real Zaragoza were relegated to the Uefa Cup. Reacting to the news, Liverpool midfielder Dietmar Hamann told BBC Radio Five Live: "It's tremendous news, great for the club. "We've still got two or three weeks to prepare, which should be enough to get in physical shape to cope with the pre-season schedule." And Football Association chief executive Brian Barwick added: "We thank the Uefa executive committee and especially its president Lennart Johansson for listening to the strength of the argument for Liverpool's entry. "We always said that this was an exceptional situation which required an exceptional solution. For the very first time, one country has five teams in the Champions League and we have to be delighted at that. "We believed there were very strong sporting reasons for Liverpool to defend their title, not least after that fantastic final in Istanbul. That view has prevailed, and rightly so." Sports minister Richard Caborn added: "I'm delighted that Uefa have decided to allow Liverpool to defend their trophy. "This is a triumph for common sense and the spirit of sport. I look forward to the start of the new season and the British clubs making a powerful impact again." But some Liverpool supporters are unhappy with the decision. Les Lawson, spokesman for the Liverpool International Supporters' Club, said: "Uefa has been caught with egg on their faces over this because the FA put the first four in the Premiership into next season's tournament. "It means Uefa has had to sort it out and they have done the minimum possible. They have treated their own champions with contempt. "It is a disgrace. Liverpool are the top team in Europe because they are the holders and have beaten Europe's best. They are being treated like TNS or other very small clubs. "To be told they have to start in the first qualifier is wrong and a real kick in the teeth." And Alan Kennedy, who scored the winning goal for the Reds in the 1981 final against Real Madrid, added: "Coming in at the early stages disregards where Liverpool finished in the Champions League. "They won it, so they should be entitled to be in at the third qualifying round." | premier.league.40 |@lemmatized liverpool:20 get:12 champion:10 league:8 give:2 chance:1 defend:4 crown:1 uefa:13 hand:1 place:2 first:7 qualifying:5 round:5 next:3 season:6 red:4 beat:2 ac:1 milan:1 last:1 final:3 finish:5 premiership:3 top:2 four:5 guarantee:1 entry:2 executive:7 committee:4 change:1 rule:1 friday:1 allow:3 wish:1 express:1 thanks:1 support:2 u:2 campaign:1 say:4 chief:3 rick:1 parry:1 key:1 point:1 small:2 share:2 england:2 television:2 money:4 reach:3 group:4 stag:2 english:5 team:3 involve:3 chelsea:4 arsenal:4 manchester:6 united:3 everton:5 still:3 less:2 would:2 country:3 protection:1 prevent:1 meet:1 club:9 seed:1 mean:4 could:4 face:3 third:2 future:2 title:4 holder:4 enter:2 automatically:2 rafael:1 benitez:1 men:1 leg:2 july:2 second:1 probably:2 cancel:2 scheduled:1 friendly:1 bayer:1 leverkusen:1 cologne:1 successful:1 also:3 pre:2 tour:1 japan:1 due:1 play:1 shimizu:1 pulse:1 kashima:1 antler:1 lars:1 christer:1 olsson:1 tell:3 bbc:2 radio:2 five:5 live:2 decision:2 man:2 unanimous:2 everybody:2 definition:1 case:1 discussion:1 actually:1 competition:1 opinion:1 opportunity:1 start:3 beginning:1 example:1 joy:1 disappointment:1 city:3 blow:1 despite:1 turn:1 cup:2 spot:1 earn:1 fifth:2 transfer:1 another:1 line:1 europe:3 likely:1 unhappy:2 potentially:1 one:2 spokesman:2 william:1 gaillard:1 admit:1 split:2 pot:2 way:2 rather:1 burden:1 base:1 unite:2 fail:1 stage:2 go:1 back:1 anyone:1 two:2 think:1 others:1 feel:1 hard:1 even:1 suffer:1 comparison:1 winner:1 normally:1 domestic:1 meanwhile:1 insist:1 saga:1 dog:1 since:1 domestically:1 win:3 never:1 repeat:1 decide:2 amend:1 regulation:1 edition:1 right:1 therefore:1 qualify:1 statement:1 organisation:1 website:1 new:2 system:1 marked:1 contrast:1 real:4 madrid:2 outside:1 spain:1 qualification:1 position:1 occasion:1 fourth:1 zaragoza:1 relegate:1 react:1 news:2 midfielder:1 dietmar:1 hamann:1 tremendous:1 great:1 three:1 week:1 prepare:1 enough:1 physical:1 shape:1 cope:1 schedule:1 football:1 association:1 brian:1 barwick:1 add:3 thank:1 especially:1 president:1 lennart:1 johansson:1 listen:1 strength:1 argument:1 always:1 exceptional:2 situation:1 require:1 solution:1 time:1 delight:2 believe:1 strong:1 sporting:1 reason:1 least:1 fantastic:1 istanbul:1 view:1 prevail:1 rightly:1 sport:2 minister:1 richard:1 caborn:1 trophy:1 triumph:1 common:1 sense:1 spirit:1 look:1 forward:1 british:1 make:1 powerful:1 impact:1 supporter:2 le:1 lawson:1 international:1 catch:1 egg:1 fa:1 put:1 tournament:1 sort:1 minimum:1 possible:1 treat:2 contempt:1 disgrace:1 best:1 like:1 tn:1 qualifier:1 wrong:1 kick:1 teeth:1 alan:1 kennedy:1 score:1 winning:1 goal:1 come:1 early:1 disregard:1 entitle:1 |@ngramms champion_league:8 executive_committee:4 change_rule:1 chief_executive:3 key_point:1 television_money:2 reach_group:3 english_team:1 chelsea_arsenal:3 manchester_united:3 english_club:3 due_play:1 enter_competition:1 give_opportunity:1 manchester_city:1 man_city:1 uefa_cup:2 manchester_unite:2 money_country:1 defend_title:2 real_madrid:2 great_club:1 football_association:1 liverpool_defend:1 club_make:1 liverpool_finish:1 |
michelle.obama.73 | Mincing Up Michelle Hillary and Bill are busy updating their enemies lists. And Obama is racking his brain trying to figure out where to stash his erstwhile rival. If a President Obama put her on the Supreme Court, of course, we would have the infinite fun of hearing Bill rant about how Scalia, Alito, Thomas and Roberts were dissing Hillary. It's good news for Obama that Hillary's out of the race. But it's also bad news. Now Republicans can turn their full attention to demonizing Michelle Obama. Mrs. Obama is the new, unwilling contestant in Round Two of the sulfurous national game of "Kill the witch." There are some who think it will be harder for America to accept a black first lady — the national hostess who serenely presides over the White House Christmas festivities and the Easter egg roll — than a black president. There are creepy Web sites, like TheObamaFile.com, dedicated to painting Michelle as a female version of Jeremiah Wright, an angry black woman, the disgruntled, lecturing "Mrs. Grievance" depicted on the cover of National Review. On that site and others around the Internet, the seamy rumors still slither that there's a tape of Michelle denouncing "whitey," a rumor that Barack Obama disdained last week as "scurrilous." E.D. Hill, the Fox anchor who said that the celebrated fist pump between Michelle and her husband the night he snagged the nomination could be called a "terrorist fist jab," apologized Tuesday. In their narrative of how Hillary lost in The Times on Sunday, Jim Rutenberg and Peter Baker said that Mark Penn argued that Hillary should subtly stress Obama's "lack of American roots." That's a good preview of how Republicans will attack Michelle, suggesting that she does not share American values, mining a subtext of race. She's a devoted daughter, wife and mother who has lived the American dream, from the humble South Side of Chicago to Harvard Law School. Hey, isn't it totally unAmerican to complain that being a black woman in the '80s at a class-conscious, white-bread college, Princeton, was somewhat uncomfortable? Just as Bill and Hillary did the "Pssst! He's black!" thing on Barry, now the Republicans will use the same tactic on the strong and opinionated Michelle. Unlike her husband, who wrote in his memoir that he had learned at a young age to smile and charm and disarm whites of the notion that he might be a bristly black militant, Michelle has not always hidden her jangly opinions so well. She has spent more time dwelling on the ways in which society can pull down the less privileged and refers a lot to a callous but unnamed "They." "Michelle," as one political observer puts it, "is a target-rich environment." Team Obama is hoping for the best. When she's on her game, after all, Michelle is a knockout. And as one Obama booster enthuses: "Michelle's story is a lot more mainstream American than Cindy McCain inheriting a brewery." But the campaign is preparing for the worst, planning to shore up Michelle with her own slick and quick war room staffed by top operatives from previous campaigns. David Axelrod thinks "there's a real recoil potential" if the Republicans go after Michelle. "I don't think she's projecting herself into the fray in a way that would justify that," he said, adding that her charming and polite daughters, Malia and Sasha, are walking testimony to Michelle's "loving parenting." Mike Murphy, the G.O.P. strategist who worked for John McCain in 2000, but not yet this year, said Michelle is heading into her "big moment in the sun." "She'll have the opportunity to do pretty well and the opportunity to really screw up." he said. "What I glimpse of her from far away makes me think there could be trouble, but anytime you have that size microphone, she will have some control over how she handles the pressure." She's going to take her big microphone on "The View" as a co-host next week, when she will no doubt try to put her remark about her belated pride in her country in context. And she clearly scored a pre-emptive hit both with her chic style — Vogue's André Leon Talley declared in The Times the dawn of "a black Camelot" — and with her playful fist pump that now has older white guys, like North Carolina Gov. Mike Easley, awkwardly trying to do it with Obama. The dap or pound, as it's also called, was a natural and beguiling moment that showed the country that, even though she started out as her husband's boss and has a résumé that matches his, she likes him and is rooting for him, and is not engaged in a dreaded Clintonesque competition with him. (On the night of the Pennsylvania primary, Bill was eagerly checking to see who had swayed more voters — him or Hillary.) "She isn't sitting with a fixed, adoring gaze," Axelrod said. "But she obviously loves him deeply and believes in him, and more than that, she believes in this. And that motivates him." | michelle.obama.73 |@lemmatized mince:1 michelle:15 hillary:7 bill:4 busy:1 update:1 enemy:1 list:1 obama:10 rack:1 brain:1 try:3 figure:1 stash:1 erstwhile:1 rival:1 president:2 put:3 supreme:1 court:1 course:1 would:2 infinite:1 fun:1 hear:1 rant:1 scalia:1 alito:1 thomas:1 robert:1 diss:1 good:2 news:2 race:2 also:2 bad:2 republicans:1 turn:1 full:1 attention:1 demonize:1 mr:2 new:1 unwilling:1 contestant:1 round:1 two:1 sulfurous:1 national:3 game:2 kill:1 witch:1 think:4 hard:1 america:1 accept:1 black:7 first:1 lady:1 hostess:1 serenely:1 preside:1 white:4 house:1 christmas:1 festivity:1 easter:1 egg:1 roll:1 creepy:1 web:1 site:2 like:3 theobamafile:1 com:1 dedicate:1 paint:1 female:1 version:1 jeremiah:1 wright:1 angry:1 woman:2 disgruntle:1 lecture:1 grievance:1 depict:1 cover:1 review:1 others:1 around:1 internet:1 seamy:1 rumor:2 still:1 slither:1 tape:1 denounce:1 whitey:1 barack:1 disdain:1 last:1 week:2 scurrilous:1 e:1 hill:1 fox:1 anchor:1 say:6 celebrated:1 fist:3 pump:2 husband:3 night:2 snag:1 nomination:1 could:2 call:2 terrorist:1 jab:1 apologize:1 tuesday:1 narrative:1 lose:1 time:3 sunday:1 jim:1 rutenberg:1 peter:1 baker:1 mark:1 penn:1 argue:1 subtly:1 stress:1 lack:1 american:4 root:2 preview:1 republican:3 attack:1 suggest:1 share:1 value:1 mine:1 subtext:1 devoted:1 daughter:2 wife:1 mother:1 live:1 dream:1 humble:1 south:1 side:1 chicago:1 harvard:1 law:1 school:1 hey:1 totally:1 unamerican:1 complain:1 class:1 conscious:1 bread:1 college:1 princeton:1 somewhat:1 uncomfortable:1 pssst:1 thing:1 barry:1 use:1 tactic:1 strong:1 opinionated:1 unlike:1 write:1 memoir:1 learn:1 young:1 age:1 smile:1 charm:1 disarm:1 notion:1 might:1 bristly:1 militant:1 always:1 hide:1 jangly:1 opinion:1 well:2 spend:1 dwell:1 way:2 society:1 pull:1 less:1 privileged:1 refer:1 lot:2 callous:1 unnamed:1 one:2 political:1 observer:1 target:1 rich:1 environment:1 team:1 hop:1 best:1 knockout:1 booster:1 enthuses:1 story:1 mainstream:1 cindy:1 mccain:2 inherit:1 brewery:1 campaign:2 prepare:1 plan:1 shore:1 slick:1 quick:1 war:1 room:1 staff:1 top:1 operative:1 previous:1 david:1 axelrod:2 real:1 recoil:1 potential:1 go:2 project:1 fray:1 justify:1 add:1 charming:1 polite:1 malia:1 sasha:1 walk:1 testimony:1 love:2 parent:1 mike:2 murphy:1 g:1 p:1 strategist:1 work:1 john:1 yet:1 year:1 head:1 big:2 moment:2 sun:1 opportunity:2 pretty:1 really:1 screw:1 glimpse:1 far:1 away:1 make:1 trouble:1 anytime:1 size:1 microphone:2 control:1 handle:1 pressure:1 take:1 view:1 co:1 host:1 next:1 doubt:1 remark:1 belated:1 pride:1 country:2 context:1 clearly:1 score:1 pre:1 emptive:1 hit:1 chic:1 style:1 vogue:1 andré:1 leon:1 talley:1 declare:1 dawn:1 camelot:1 playful:1 old:1 guy:1 north:1 carolina:1 gov:1 easley:1 awkwardly:1 dap:1 pound:1 natural:1 beguiling:1 show:1 even:1 though:1 start:1 bos:1 résumé:1 match:1 engage:1 dreaded:1 clintonesque:1 competition:1 pennsylvania:1 primary:1 eagerly:1 check:1 see:1 sway:1 voter:1 sit:1 fix:1 adore:1 gaze:1 obviously:1 deeply:1 believe:2 motivate:1 |@ngramms president_obama:1 obama_hillary:1 michelle_obama:1 mr_obama:1 white_house:1 web_site:1 black_woman:2 national_review:1 barack_obama:1 husband_night:1 wife_mother:1 american_dream:1 south_side:1 harvard_law:1 bill_hillary:1 young_age:1 spend_time:1 obama_hop:1 daughter_malia:1 john_mccain:1 show_country:1 |
samsung.galaxy.s5.25 | Samsung quietly reveals a Galaxy S5 variant with an eight-core processor So that's Samsung's new flagship smartphone, the Galaxy S5. The company makes the majority of the components itself, but what happened to those home-grown Exynos processors? Well, Samsung tells us that the GS5 will come in two variants, one with the 2.5GHz quad-core Snapdragon 801 chip (the model that we tested out at MWC), and another with a 2.1GHz octo-core Exynos 5 processor. Samsung did the same with the Galaxy S4 last year, but we didn't pick up any huge differences in performance when we compared the two phones. The LTE-capable GS4s never left Korea, however, so we'd predict a similarly limited roll-out for any Exynos-powered GS5s. | samsung.galaxy.s5.25 |@lemmatized samsung:4 quietly:1 reveal:1 galaxy:3 variant:2 eight:1 core:3 processor:3 new:1 flagship:1 smartphone:1 company:1 make:1 majority:1 component:1 happen:1 home:1 grown:1 exynos:3 well:1 tell:1 u:1 come:1 two:2 one:1 quad:1 snapdragon:1 chip:1 model:1 test:1 mwc:1 another:1 octo:1 last:1 year:1 pick:1 huge:1 difference:1 performance:1 compare:1 phone:1 lte:1 capable:1 never:1 leave:1 korea:1 however:1 predict:1 similarly:1 limited:1 roll:1 power:1 |@ngramms reveal_galaxy:1 core_processor:1 flagship_smartphone:1 company_make:1 exynos_processor:2 quad_core:1 samsung_galaxy:1 performance_compare:1 |
ParisAttacks2015_(24) | Abdelhamid Abaaoud: what we know about the Paris attacks 'mastermind' Belgian national of Moroccan origin has been on the run since police raid on suspected Isis cell in Verviers in January The alleged mastermind of the Paris attacks that killed at least 129 people has been named as the leader of an Islamic State (Isis) cell who was sought by police earlier this year and is the target of Wednesday's police operation north of Paris. French officials said Abdelhamid Abaaoud, 27, was instrumental in organising and executing the gun and suicide bomb attacks on Friday night that wrought devastation in central Paris, AFP reported. Abaaoud, a Belgian of Moroccan origin, was first named by police as a wanted extremist after a gun battle in eastern Belgium in January during a raid on an Isis cell. That security operation was believed to have destroyed a cell plotting to assassinate Belgian police officers, with two suspects killed in a fierce gun battle with police during the raid in the eastern town of Verviers. Abaaoud, the group's suspected leader, spent time fighting alongside Isis in Syria. He was known to security forces after appearing in an Isis video, at the wheel of a car transporting mutilated bodies to a mass grave. He was described as being on the run after the attack and has now been named as a leader in the Paris attacks. Koen Geens, the Belgian justice minister, said in January: "Last night's arrests did not succeed in nabbing the right person. We are still actively looking for him and I presume we will succeed." Abaaoud was also linked by French officials to the thwarted attacks on a Paris-bound high-speed train in August and a foiled plot to attack a church in Paris in April. The French newspaper Libération also linked him to Sid Ahmed Ghlam, a French student charged with murder, attempted murder and terror offences. Abaaoud regularly attempted to recruit other western fighters to join Isis militants in Syria – even recruiting his 13-year-old brother, Younes, according to French media. It is alleged that documents found at his home and in a search of his computer and telephone records suggested Ghlam was in contact with a French speaker in Syria, who had ordered him to carry out an attack on a church. VTM, a Flemish-language channel, reported that Abaaoud made calls from Greece to the brother of one of two heavily armed suspects killed in Verviers in January. In an interview with the Isis magazine Dabiq, Abaaoud boasted that he had been able to plot attacks against the west right under the nose of Belgian intelligence agencies, and that he was in Syria in February. The militant, also known as Abu Umar al-Baljiki, said he and two fellow jihadis travelled to Belgium to "terrorise the crusaders waging war against the Muslims". Posing for pictures holding an Isis flag and the Qur'an, the bearded Abaaoud told the magazine: "We faced a number of trials during the journey. We spent months trying to find a way into Europe, and by Allah's strength, we succeeded in finally making our way to Belgium. "We were then able to obtain weapons and set up a safe house while we planned to carry out operations against the crusaders." Abaaoud revealed he was stopped during the journey by "an officer" after a picture of him fighting for Isis was published in Belgian media; however the officer "let me go, as he did not see the resemblance", he said. It is not clear when or where this alleged police intervention took place. The 27-year-old said the two fellow jihadis killed by Belgian police during the raid in January were "blessed with shahadah [martyrdom], which is what they had desired for so long". Asked by the magazine why he became a suspect, Abaaoud said: "The intelligence [services] knew me from before as I had been previously imprisoned by them. After the raid on the safe house, they figured out that I had been with the brothers and that we had been planning operations together. So they gathered intelligence agents from all over the world – from Europe and America – in order to detain me. "They arrested Muslims in Greece, Spain, France, and Belgium in order to apprehend me … All those arrested were not even connected to our plans! May Allah release all Muslims from the prisons of these crusaders." He boasted that he had been able to plan terror attacks against westerners while living in Belgium and being wanted by intelligence agencies when he travelled to Syria in January 2014. "I was able to leave … despite being chased after by so many intelligence agencies," he told the magazine. "All this proves that a Muslim should not fear the bloated image of the crusader intelligence. "My name and picture were all over the news yet I was able to stay in their homeland, plan operations against them, and leave safely when doing so became necessary. I ask Allah to accept the fruitful deeds of the shuhada' [martyrs] who terrorised the crusaders of America, France, Canada, Australia, Germany and Belgium." Abaaoud was sentenced to 20 years in prison by a Belgian court earlier this year after being tried in absentia for recruiting for Isis in Syria. He was among 32 people charged with running one of Belgium's largest jihadi recruitment networks, although many of the defendants – including Abaaoud – were tried in absentia and remain at large. He was also accused of kidnapping after his younger brother, Younes, 13, travelled to Syria in January 2014, earning the media nickname of "the youngest jihadi in the world". Their father, Omar Abaaoud, having heard no news from his two sons, filed a police complaint against his older son, AFP reported in May. Abaaoud's older sister, Yasmina, told the New York Times in January that neither of the brothers showed a zealous interest in religion before leaving for Syria. "They did not even go to the mosque," she said. Their father owned a shop and lived with his wife and six children in an apartment on rue de l'Avenir in one of Molenbeek's better areas, near a canal that separates Molenbeek from a trendy Brussels district of bars and restaurants, the newspaper reported. Yasmina said the family received calls in autumn 2014 from Syria saying he had become a "martyr", meaning he had been killed in battle. She said the family had not heard from him or the younger brother, now 14, since. However, investigators believed the martyr claim was a ruse to throw western intelligence services off his scent. Abaaoud was described as a happy-go-lucky student who went to one of Brussels' most prestigious high schools, Saint-Pierre d'Uccle. His home was raided in January after police intercepted phone calls between him and suspected jihadis following counter-terror raids a week earlier aimed at dismantling the Belgian terror cell. After his trip to Syria in January 2014, he is believed to have travelled to Greece. "All my life, I have seen the blood of Muslims flow," Abaaoud said in a video published in 2014. "I pray that Allah will break the backs of those who oppose him, his soldiers and his admirers, and that he will exterminate them. | ParisAttacks2015_(24) |@lemmatized abdelhamid:2 abaaoud:17 know:4 paris:7 attack:10 mastermind:2 belgian:9 national:1 moroccan:2 origin:2 run:3 since:2 police:10 raid:7 suspected:1 isi:10 cell:5 verviers:3 january:10 alleged:1 kill:5 least:1 people:2 name:4 leader:3 islamic:1 state:1 seek:1 earlier:3 year:5 target:1 wednesday:1 operation:5 north:1 french:6 official:2 say:11 instrumental:1 organise:1 execute:1 gun:3 suicide:1 bomb:1 friday:1 night:2 work:1 devastation:1 central:1 afp:2 report:4 first:1 wanted:1 extremist:1 battle:3 eastern:2 belgium:7 security:2 believe:3 destroy:1 plot:3 assassinate:1 officer:3 two:5 suspect:5 fierce:1 town:1 group:1 spend:2 time:2 fight:2 alongside:1 syria:10 force:1 appear:1 video:2 wheel:1 car:1 transporting:1 mutilate:1 body:1 mass:1 grave:1 describe:2 koen:1 geens:1 justice:1 minister:1 last:1 arrest:3 succeed:3 nab:1 right:2 person:1 still:1 actively:1 look:1 presume:1 also:4 link:2 thwarted:1 bound:1 high:2 speed:1 train:1 august:1 foiled:1 church:2 april:1 newspaper:2 libération:1 sid:1 ahmed:1 ghlam:2 student:2 charge:2 murder:2 attempt:2 terror:4 offence:1 regularly:1 recruit:3 western:2 fighter:1 join:1 militant:2 even:3 old:4 brother:6 younes:2 accord:1 medium:3 allege:2 document:1 find:2 home:2 search:1 computer:1 telephone:1 record:1 suggest:1 contact:1 speaker:1 order:3 carry:2 vtm:1 flemish:1 language:1 channel:1 make:2 call:3 greece:3 one:4 heavily:1 arm:1 interview:1 magazine:4 dabiq:1 boast:2 able:5 west:1 nose:1 intelligence:7 agency:3 february:1 abu:1 umar:1 al:1 baljiki:1 fellow:2 jihadis:3 travel:4 terrorise:2 crusader:5 wag:1 war:1 muslim:5 pose:1 picture:3 hold:1 flag:1 qur:1 beard:1 tell:3 face:1 number:1 trial:1 journey:2 month:1 try:3 way:2 europe:2 allah:4 strength:1 finally:1 obtain:1 weapon:1 set:1 safe:2 house:2 plan:5 reveal:1 stop:1 publish:2 however:2 let:1 go:4 see:2 resemblance:1 clear:1 intervention:1 take:1 place:1 bless:1 shahadah:1 martyrdom:1 desire:1 long:1 ask:2 become:3 service:2 previously:1 imprison:1 figure:1 together:1 gather:1 agent:1 world:2 america:2 detain:1 spain:1 france:2 apprehend:1 connect:1 may:2 release:1 prison:2 westerner:1 living:1 want:1 leave:3 despite:1 chase:1 many:2 prove:1 fear:1 bloated:1 image:1 news:2 yet:1 stay:1 homeland:1 safely:1 necessary:1 accept:1 fruitful:1 deed:1 shuhada:1 martyr:3 canada:1 australia:1 germany:1 sentence:1 court:1 absentia:2 among:1 large:2 jihadi:2 recruitment:1 network:1 although:1 defendant:1 include:1 remain:1 accuse:1 kidnap:1 younger:1 earn:1 nickname:1 young:2 father:2 omar:1 hear:2 son:2 file:1 complaint:1 sister:1 yasmina:2 new:1 york:1 neither:1 show:1 zealous:1 interest:1 religion:1 mosque:1 shop:1 live:1 wife:1 six:1 child:1 apartment:1 rue:1 de:1 l:1 avenir:1 molenbeek:2 well:1 area:1 near:1 canal:1 separate:1 trendy:1 brussels:2 district:1 bar:1 restaurant:1 family:2 receive:1 autumn:1 meaning:1 investigator:1 claim:1 ruse:1 throw:1 scent:1 happy:1 lucky:1 prestigious:1 school:1 saint:1 pierre:1 uccle:1 intercept:1 phone:1 follow:1 counter:1 week:1 aim:1 dismantle:1 trip:1 life:1 blood:1 flow:1 pray:1 break:1 back:1 oppose:1 soldier:1 admirer:1 exterminate:1 |@ngramms abdelhamid_abaaoud:2 paris_attack:3 belgian_national:1 police_raid:3 islamic_state:1 seek_police:1 police_operation:1 north_paris:1 suicide_bomb:1 friday_night:1 central_paris:1 afp_report:2 abaaoud_belgian:1 gun_battle:2 eastern_belgium:1 police_officer:1 suspect_kill:2 suspect_leader:1 spend_time:1 isi_syria:2 security_force:1 french_official:1 attack_paris:1 high_speed:1 attack_church:1 french_newspaper:1 militant_syria:1 french_medium:1 contact_french:1 carry_attack:1 language_channel:1 report_abaaoud:1 attack_west:1 intelligence_agency:3 war_muslim:1 picture_hold:1 safe_house:2 belgian_medium:1 kill_belgian:1 intelligence_service:2 plan_operation:2 world_europe:1 terror_attack:1 travel_syria:2 prove_muslim:1 australia_germany:1 people_charge:1 remain_large:1 leave_syria:1 rue_de:1 brussels_district:1 bar_restaurant:1 newspaper_report:1 abaaoud_describe:1 high_school:1 raid_january:1 phone_call:1 syria_january:1 travel_greece:1 blood_muslim:1 |
ParisAttacks2015_(35) | 'It is horror': French President Hollande's remarks after Paris attacks Declaring a state of emergency and closing the nation's borders, French President François Hollande delivered this speech Friday in the midst of attacks that devastated Paris. Read the full coverage here. "My dear compatriots, As I speak, terrorist attacks of unprecedented proportions are underway in the Paris area. There are dozens killed, there are many injured. It is a horror. We have, on my decision, mobilized all forces possible to neutralize the terrorists and make all concerned areas safe. I have also asked for military reinforcements. They are currently in the Paris area, to ensure that no new attack can take place. I have also called a cabinet meeting that will be held in a few minutes. Two decisions will be taken: A state of emergency will be declared, which means that some places will be closed, traffic may be banned, and there will also be searches which may be decided throughout Ile de France (greater Paris). The state of emergency will be proclaimed throughout the territory (of France). The second decision I have made is to close the borders. We must ensure that no one enters to commit any crimes and that those who have committed the crimes that we have unfortunately seen can also be arrested if they should leave the territory. This is a terrible ordeal which once again assails us. We know where it comes from, who these criminals are, who these terrorists are. In these difficult moments, we must — and I'm thinking of the many victims, their families and the injured — show compassion and solidarity. But we must also show unity and calm. Faced with terror, France must be strong, it must be great and the state authorities must be firm. We will be. We must also call on everyone to be responsible. What the terrorists want is to scare us and fill us with dread. There is indeed reason to be afraid. There is dread, but in the face of this dread, there is a nation that knows how to defend itself, that knows how to mobilize its forces and, once again, will defeat the terrorists. French citizens, we have not completed the operations. There are still some that are extremely difficult. It's at this moment that the security forces are staging an assault, especially in a place in Paris. I ask you to keep all your trust in what we can do with the security forces to protect our nation from terrorist acts. Long live the Republic and long live France." Hollande then visited the Bataclan music hall, where armed assailants stormed the venue and more than 100 people died. His remarks: "To all those who have seen these awful things, I want to say we are going to lead a war which will be pitiless. Because when terrorists are capable of committing such atrocities they must be certain that they are facing a determined France, a united France, a France that is together and does not let itself be moved, even if today we express infinite sorrow." After the Charlie Hebdo attacks in January, he delivered this statement: "But even though she is aware that she has faced up to this situation and her security forces are composed of men and women who are capable of bravery and courage, France knows that there will be more threats targeted against her." | ParisAttacks2015_(35) |@lemmatized horror:2 french:3 president:2 hollande:3 remark:2 paris:6 attack:5 declare:2 state:4 emergency:3 close:3 nation:3 border:2 françois:1 deliver:2 speech:1 friday:1 midst:1 devastate:1 read:1 full:1 coverage:1 dear:1 compatriot:1 speak:1 terrorist:7 unprecedented:1 proportion:1 underway:1 area:3 dozen:1 kill:1 many:2 injured:2 decision:3 mobilize:2 force:5 possible:1 neutralize:1 make:2 concern:1 safe:1 also:6 ask:2 military:1 reinforcement:1 currently:1 ensure:2 new:1 take:2 place:3 call:2 cabinet:1 meeting:1 hold:1 minute:1 two:1 mean:1 traffic:1 may:2 ban:1 search:1 decide:1 throughout:2 ile:1 de:1 france:8 great:2 proclaim:1 territory:2 second:1 must:8 one:1 enter:1 commit:3 crime:2 unfortunately:1 see:2 arrest:1 leave:1 terrible:1 ordeal:1 assails:1 u:3 know:4 come:1 criminal:1 difficult:2 moment:2 thinking:1 victim:1 family:1 show:2 compassion:1 solidarity:1 unity:1 calm:1 face:4 terror:1 strong:1 authority:1 firm:1 everyone:1 responsible:1 want:2 scare:1 fill:1 dread:3 indeed:1 reason:1 afraid:1 defend:1 defeat:1 citizen:1 complete:1 operation:1 still:1 extremely:1 security:3 stag:1 assault:1 especially:1 keep:1 trust:1 protect:1 act:1 long:2 live:2 republic:1 visit:1 bataclan:1 music:1 hall:1 arm:1 assailant:1 storm:1 venue:1 people:1 die:1 awful:1 thing:1 say:1 go:1 lead:1 war:1 pitiless:1 capable:2 atrocity:1 certain:1 determined:1 united:1 together:1 let:1 move:1 even:2 today:1 express:1 infinite:1 sorrow:1 charlie:1 hebdo:1 january:1 statement:1 though:1 aware:1 situation:1 compose:1 men:1 woman:1 bravery:1 courage:1 threat:1 target:1 |@ngramms french_president:2 paris_attack:1 state_emergency:3 read_full:1 terrorist_attack:1 paris_area:2 meeting_hold:1 decision_make:1 difficult_moment:2 victim_family:1 french_citizen:1 security_force:3 terrorist_act:1 long_live:2 music_hall:1 people_die:1 terrorist_capable:1 charlie_hebdo:1 attack_january:1 men_woman:1 |
premier.league.56 | Why TV is the key to Real success Why do Real Madrid and Barcelona have higher revenues than any English club? The answer lies in the way they sell television rights to their domestic fixtures. The Spanish system allows them to negotiate their own broadcasting deals. In many other countries the TV deals are negotiated by the league they play in, and the money is distributed according to an agreed formula. As winners of the English Premier League, Manchester United received £52m from the distribution of TV rights in 2008/9. Real Madrid - second in La Liga - earned more than double that amount from its broadcasting contract with Mediapro. According to the sports unit at consultants Deloitte, both Real Madrid and Barcelona have deals with Mediapro until at least 2012/13 which will contribute broadcasting revenues of, on average, approximately 150m euros ($203m; £136m) each year. Unequal In England the distribution of TV money is unequal. But it is a lot less unequal than in Spain. For example, Manchester City, who came tenth in the 2008/9 season received £40m - only £12m less than winners United. And this way of distributing money has helped seven English clubs into Deloitte's list of the 20 highest-earning clubs in the world. Spain has the top two, but no other Spanish club makes the top 20. The attraction of more equal distribution is that it should help produce a more competitive domestic league. So far this season, both Real Madrid and Barcelona have won 19 out of 23 games in La Liga. In England, Chelsea and Manchester United have both won 19 out of 28. So watching an English Premier League game has offered viewers a better chance of watching something other than the routine destruction of less well resourced clubs. Dangers With international TV rights becoming an increasingly important source of income and leagues competing for attention around the world, the Spanish model has clear dangers. In the long run, re-distribution of revenues to help the less well supported clubs should produce a more competitive and watchable league. The merits of a more re-distributive system are about to be put to the test. In Italy the clubs are about to move from a system where clubs sell TV rights individually to a more collective arrangement. As the Deloitte Sports Unit warns in its annual report on football finance, that may pose problems for clubs like Juventus. Its 28,000-seat stadium is a third of the size of some of the other big European clubs. And with that limit on ticket sales, Juve gets almost two thirds of its total revenue from its lucrative domestic television deal. A more even distribution of Italian TV revenues is an obvious threat. But the argument is that making collective arrangements will increase total revenues and make Serie A into a stronger league. As most football fans now know, it is the business arrangements behind the scenes which often drive what happens on the field. And very often, TV is the key. | premier.league.56 |@lemmatized tv:8 key:2 real:5 success:1 madrid:4 barcelona:3 high:2 revenue:6 english:4 club:10 answer:1 lie:1 way:2 sell:2 television:2 right:4 domestic:3 fixture:1 spanish:3 system:3 allow:1 negotiate:2 broadcasting:1 deal:4 many:1 country:1 league:7 play:1 money:3 distribute:2 accord:2 agree:1 formula:1 winner:2 premier:2 manchester:3 unite:2 receive:2 distribution:5 second:1 la:2 liga:2 earn:2 double:1 amount:1 broadcast:2 contract:1 mediapro:2 sport:2 unit:2 consultant:1 deloitte:3 least:1 contribute:1 average:1 approximately:1 euro:1 year:1 unequal:3 england:2 lot:1 less:4 spain:2 example:1 city:1 come:1 tenth:1 season:2 united:1 help:3 seven:1 list:1 world:2 top:2 two:2 make:3 attraction:1 equal:1 produce:2 competitive:2 far:1 win:2 game:2 chelsea:1 watch:2 offer:1 viewer:1 good:1 chance:1 something:1 routine:1 destruction:1 well:2 resourced:1 danger:2 international:1 become:1 increasingly:1 important:1 source:1 income:1 compete:1 attention:1 around:1 model:1 clear:1 long:1 run:1 support:1 watchable:1 merit:1 distributive:1 put:1 test:1 italy:1 move:1 individually:1 collective:2 arrangement:3 warn:1 annual:1 report:1 football:2 finance:1 may:1 pose:1 problem:1 like:1 juventus:1 seat:1 stadium:1 third:2 size:1 big:1 european:1 limit:1 ticket:1 sale:1 juve:1 get:1 almost:1 total:2 lucrative:1 even:1 italian:1 obvious:1 threat:1 argument:1 increase:1 serie:1 strong:1 fan:1 know:1 business:1 behind:1 scene:1 often:2 drive:1 happen:1 field:1 |@ngramms real_madrid:4 english_club:2 tv_deal:1 premier_league:2 manchester_unite:2 sport_unit:2 broadcast_revenue:1 manchester_city:1 season_receive:1 spanish_club:1 win_game:1 game_offer:1 good_chance:1 source_income:1 long_run:1 club_produce:1 system_put:1 system_club:1 football_finance:1 total_revenue:2 television_deal:1 strong_league:1 football_fan:1 |
ParisAttacks2015_(36) | Paris attacks: severed finger found at Bataclan theatre identifies attacker Omar Ismaïl Mostefai has been named in France as one of the attackers with a number of others now being identified through documents A severed finger at the site of the Bataclan theatre reportedly led French authorities to identify the first of seven terrorists responsible for killing 129 people and wounding 352 in a string of attacks across Paris on Friday night. Multiple sources have identified to French media one killer as Omar Ismaïl Mostefai, a 29-year-old of Algerian origin. He was one of three gunmen to storm the Bataclan theatre. Paris attacks: police hunt 'dangerous' suspect and brother of Isis attacker – as it happened Latest coverage as hunt continues for network behind Isis attack that left 129 people dead Read more Mostefai's former home and birthplace in Courcouronnes, a town in Essonnes south of Paris, was searched on Saturday. Jean-Pierre Georges, a French MP, said the alleged terrorist also lived in Chartres, in south-west Paris, until 2012. Mostefai had a criminal record, convicted of eight crimes between 2004 and 2010, but was never jailed. He was flagged as a radicalisation risk by French intelligence in 2010, Paris prosecutor Francois Molins said on Saturday. His brother and father have been taken into police custody and had their homes searched. His brother, 34, told Agence France-Presse before his arrest he had not seen Mostefai for several years. "It's crazy, insane. I was in Paris myself last night, I saw what a mess it was," he said. The last he knew, Mostefai had gone to Algeria with his family and his "little girl", he said, adding: "It's been a time since I have had any news." "I called my mother, she didn't seem to know anything," he said on Saturday. A source close to the inquiry said Mostefai regularly attended a mosque in Luce, close to Chartres. The brother's wife was also taken into custody, AFP said. Judicial sources also told the agency investigators are trying to find out whether Mostefai travelled to Syria in 2014. Mostefai drove to the theatre on Friday in a black or grey Volkswagen Polo registered in Belgium. The other two gunmen involved in the attack on the venue are yet to be identified. A second team of three attacked the Stade de France. A Syrian passport was found near the body of one alleged terrorist at the stadium, traced to a migrant, born in 1990, who crossed into the European Union via the Greek island of Leros on 3 October, according to Greece's citizen protection minister, Nikos Toskas. French television station Metropole 6 has named the passport-holder, but its claim is yet to be confirmed by investigators. An Egyptian passport was found at the scene of the Stade de France bombings, the French newspaper Liberation also reported. At least one of the attackers had a ticket to the France-Germany friendly underway at the stadium and tried to gain entry, detonating his explosives vest after he was discovered, the Wall Street Journal said. The identities of the two other Stade de France bombers remain unknown, as does that of a seventh bomber, who blew himself up on a bustling street near the Bataclan theatre, injuring one person. Reuters has reported that a second Syrian refugee may have been among the gunmen. Serbian media have named a 25-year-old as a suspect, claiming he entered Greece on 3 October and then crossed into Serbia from Macedonia on 7 October. However, a Greek official has told the Guardian there was no indication "whatsoever" the second Syrian entered Europe via Greece. "These reports are untrue and need clarification," the official said. "We are unable, whatsoever, to confirm the existence of a second person who may have been involved in the attacks coming through Greece. Earlier we were given a serial number which was specific and which we could match. "In this case we and other European countries were given a name. As an EU member state we did out best to match it but discovered there were four or five names that were very similar and so were unable to." Six suspected accomplices have also been arrested. Three French nationals living in the Brussels suburb of Molenbeek were detained after raids on Saturday. Belgium's prime minister, Charles Michel, said one of those arrested may have been in Paris on Friday. Three more were arrested on Saturday at France's border with Belgium in a vehicle allegedly used in the attacks. Meanwhile authorities in Munich have said a 51-year-old Montenegrin man arrested on 5 November near the Austrian border may have been trying to supply arms and explosives to the Paris attackers. Officials found a pistol under the bonnet of his car, prompting them to take the vehicle apart. Concealed in the car's bodywork they found automatic weapons, 200 grammes of dynamite, hand grenades and ammunition, according to Bavarian public radio. Examination of the suspect's mobile phone and the car's GPS system indicated he was en route to Paris. Joachim Herrmann, the Bavarian interior minister, said his department was "intensively investigating together with the French authorities whether there is a connection with the events in Paris". | ParisAttacks2015_(36) |@lemmatized paris:11 attack:8 sever:1 finger:2 find:6 bataclan:4 theatre:5 identifies:1 attacker:5 omar:2 ismaïl:2 mostefai:9 name:5 france:7 one:7 number:2 others:1 identify:4 document:1 severed:1 site:1 reportedly:1 lead:1 french:8 authority:3 first:1 seven:1 terrorist:3 responsible:1 kill:1 people:2 wound:1 string:1 across:1 friday:3 night:2 multiple:1 source:3 medium:2 killer:1 year:4 old:3 algerian:1 origin:1 three:4 gunman:3 storm:1 police:2 hunt:2 dangerous:1 suspect:3 brother:4 isi:2 happen:1 late:1 coverage:1 continue:1 network:1 behind:1 leave:1 dead:1 read:1 former:1 home:2 birthplace:1 courcouronnes:1 town:1 essonnes:1 south:2 search:2 saturday:5 jean:1 pierre:1 george:1 mp:1 say:12 allege:1 also:5 live:2 chartres:2 west:1 criminal:1 record:1 convict:1 eight:1 crime:1 never:1 jail:1 flag:1 radicalisation:1 risk:1 intelligence:1 prosecutor:1 francois:1 molins:1 father:1 take:3 custody:2 tell:3 agence:1 presse:1 arrest:5 see:1 several:1 crazy:1 insane:1 last:2 saw:1 mess:1 know:2 go:1 algeria:1 family:1 little:1 girl:1 add:1 time:1 since:1 news:1 call:1 mother:1 seem:1 anything:1 close:2 inquiry:1 regularly:1 attend:1 mosque:1 luce:1 wife:1 afp:1 judicial:1 agency:1 investigator:2 try:3 whether:2 travel:1 syria:1 drove:1 black:1 grey:1 volkswagen:1 polo:1 register:1 belgium:3 two:2 involve:2 venue:1 yet:2 second:4 team:1 stade:3 de:3 syrian:3 passport:3 near:3 body:1 alleged:1 stadium:2 trace:1 migrant:1 bear:1 cross:2 european:2 union:1 via:2 greek:2 island:1 leros:1 october:3 accord:2 greece:4 citizen:1 protection:1 minister:3 nikos:1 toskas:1 television:1 station:1 metropole:1 holder:1 claim:2 confirm:2 egyptian:1 scene:1 bombing:1 newspaper:1 liberation:1 report:3 least:1 ticket:1 germany:1 friendly:1 underway:1 gain:1 entry:1 detonate:1 explosive:2 vest:1 discover:2 wall:1 street:2 journal:1 identity:1 bomber:2 remain:1 unknown:1 seventh:1 blow:1 bustling:1 injure:1 person:2 reuters:1 refugee:1 may:4 among:1 serbian:1 enter:2 serbia:1 macedonia:1 however:1 official:3 guardian:1 indication:1 whatsoever:2 europe:1 untrue:1 need:1 clarification:1 unable:2 existence:1 come:1 earlier:1 give:2 serial:1 specific:1 could:1 match:2 case:1 country:1 eu:1 member:1 state:1 best:1 four:1 five:1 similar:1 six:1 suspected:1 accomplice:1 national:1 brussels:1 suburb:1 molenbeek:1 detain:1 raid:1 prime:1 charles:1 michel:1 border:2 vehicle:2 allegedly:1 use:1 meanwhile:1 munich:1 montenegrin:1 man:1 november:1 austrian:1 supply:1 arm:1 pistol:1 bonnet:1 car:3 prompt:1 apart:1 conceal:1 bodywork:1 automatic:1 weapon:1 gramme:1 dynamite:1 hand:1 grenade:1 ammunition:1 bavarian:2 public:1 radio:1 examination:1 mobile:1 phone:1 gps:1 system:1 indicate:1 en:1 route:1 joachim:1 herrmann:1 interior:1 department:1 intensively:1 investigate:1 together:1 connection:1 event:1 |@ngramms paris_attack:2 finger_find:1 attacker_omar:1 site_bataclan:1 french_authority:2 kill_people:1 friday_night:1 multiple_source:1 french_medium:1 gunman_storm:1 hunt_continue:1 attack_leave:1 people_dead:1 south_paris:1 search_saturday:1 south_west:1 criminal_record:1 french_intelligence:1 paris_prosecutor:1 molins_say_saturday:1 call_mother:1 source_close:1 brother_wife:1 travel_syria:1 involve_attack:2 syrian_passport:1 european_union:1 island_leros:1 television_station:1 passport_find:1 french_newspaper:1 detonate_explosive:1 wall_street:1 bomber_blow:1 syrian_refugee:1 greece_october:1 earlier_give:1 european_country:1 member_state:1 french_national:1 suburb_molenbeek:1 saturday_belgium:1 prime_minister:1 paris_friday:1 arrest_saturday:1 border_belgium:1 man_arrest:1 arm_explosive:1 paris_attacker:1 mobile_phone:1 route_paris:1 interior_minister:1 |
michelle.obama.67 | How Michelle Obama Does It Age: 44 Hometown: Chicago Michelle's Family: Husband Barack, 47; children Malia, 10, and Sasha, 7 How do you balance being the wife of a presidential candidate and a mother to two small children? "My daughters are my first and foremost priority. Because Barack is away so much on the campaign trail, from the start he and I decided we would build my schedule around the girls to make sure they stay happy and healthy. So I'm only on the road campaigning a couple of days per week, and mostly only on day trips, so that in the evening I can hop back on the plane to head home, where I'm greeted by two beaming little faces. That way, the girls never really feel that I'm gone and are able to maintain a sense of normalcy." What's been most interesting for you on the campaign trail? "The roundtable discussions with working women have come to be my favorite and most meaningful campaign events. These conversations really reinforce for me that, no matter our race, age, party, socioeconomic status, or hometown, we're all so much more alike than different: We all love our families and our country, and we all just want to make the world we live in a better place. Women everywhere are engaged in similar juggling acts of balancing work and family, trying to fix problems in their lives that we don't do nearly enough to address in Washington. It's been so rewarding to get the chance to talk about Barack's plans that will really address the needs and concerns of women trying to keep their families healthy and financially secure, and to use these conversations to help inform his policies." Who provides childcare when you're campaigning? "My mom lives nearby and takes care of the girls when I'm away. They know that if Mommy and Daddy can't be there, they have Grandma, and we all know there's nothing better than Grandma! She has been the strongest source of support all of my life, and I'm so grateful for her love and compassion throughout all of the wonderful chaos of this campaign. She's our family's rock." What type of mother would your daughters say you are? "They'd say I'm a hard worker who expects them to always put forth their best efforts and above all, not to let anything stand in their way. I encourage them to be independent and free-thinking, and to take the lead on things like making their beds and getting school work done without being reminded. They would also definitely say that their Mommy loves to cuddle and play with them! The most precious part of my day is when the three of us snuggle up together in bed to share stories and chat about what's going on in their lives." What's your busiest time of day? "The morning. I get up between 5 and 6 a.m. to get the girls ready for school, prepare breakfast, clean up, and put myself together — it's bags flying, arms reaching, feet shuffling, and little voices saying 'Mom!' We're out the door by 7:30, and on days when I'm campaigning, I'm on a plane by 9." What would you do with an extra hour in your day? "I would spend every moment of it with my family." How do you and Barack stay connected? "We're very good about it. We talk on the phone every day, no matter what. And neither of us goes anywhere without our Blackberries, so we chat throughout the day, even if it's just little notes between campaign events." How do you spend family time? "We love outdoor activities, like riding bikes and swimming. If the weather's bad, we curl up on the couch and watch a movie or read a book. Barack and Malia have read all of the Harry Potter books together out loud." You've said you negotiated an agreement in which Barack gave up smoking in exchange for your support in the campaign. How else is health important to you? "It's true — that was one of the conditions for Barack to run! A proper diet and regular exercise have always been important to me, for both the physical and mental benefits. I try to hit the gym for an hour three or four times per week, which helps me keep up with the hectic campaign schedule — and makes up for some of the campaign snacking! On the road, I talk to a lot of women about the importance of their well-being; we women often put ourselves last on our 'to do' lists, and we need to take better care of ourselves." Do you have a guilty pleasure? "Yes. French fries!" What would it mean to you to be the first African-American First Lady? "My thoughts go straight to my girls and how it would affect their lives and how they view the world. Regardless of who wins the election, they will grow up in an America where having an African-American president is normal. The confidence that this campaign will instill in their minds, and in the minds of children across the country, is something that I've always hoped for." What issues would be most important to you as First Lady? "At the top of my mind is finding ways to support military families and working mothers. I'm also very interested in national service. I ran an AmeriCorps program in Chicago, working with young leaders to help communities, and I'd very much like to expand on that work by opening the doors of Washington, D.C., to folks working on community activism, like what Barack did in Chicago 20 years ago." Regardless of what happens in November, what are your hopes for our country? "My dream is one that we all share as Americans: to live in a country where all children go to good schools, where we have an economy that rewards hard-working people, and where affordable, quality health care is available for everyone. That is the America that I hope my girls — and all our children — will inherit from us." | michelle.obama.67 |@lemmatized michelle:2 obama:1 age:2 hometown:2 chicago:3 family:8 husband:1 barack:8 child:5 malia:2 sasha:1 balance:2 wife:1 presidential:1 candidate:1 mother:3 two:2 small:1 daughter:2 first:4 foremost:1 priority:1 away:2 much:3 campaign:11 trail:2 start:1 decide:1 would:8 build:1 schedule:2 around:1 girl:6 make:4 sure:1 stay:2 happy:1 healthy:2 road:2 couple:1 day:8 per:2 week:2 mostly:1 trip:1 evening:1 hop:2 back:1 plane:2 head:1 home:1 greet:1 beam:1 little:3 face:1 way:3 never:1 really:3 feel:1 go:5 able:1 maintain:1 sense:1 normalcy:1 interesting:1 roundtable:1 discussion:1 work:8 woman:5 come:1 favorite:1 meaningful:1 event:2 conversation:2 reinforce:1 matter:2 race:1 party:1 socioeconomic:1 status:1 alike:1 different:1 love:4 country:4 want:1 world:2 live:3 good:4 place:1 everywhere:1 engage:1 similar:1 juggling:1 act:1 try:3 fix:1 problem:1 life:4 nearly:1 enough:1 address:2 washington:2 reward:2 get:4 chance:1 talk:3 plan:1 need:2 concern:1 keep:2 financially:1 secure:1 use:1 help:3 inform:1 policy:1 provide:1 childcare:1 mom:2 nearby:1 take:3 care:3 know:2 mommy:2 daddy:1 grandma:2 nothing:1 well:2 strong:1 source:1 support:3 grateful:1 compassion:1 throughout:2 wonderful:1 chaos:1 rock:1 type:1 say:5 hard:2 worker:1 expect:1 always:3 put:3 forth:1 best:1 effort:1 let:1 anything:1 stand:1 encourage:1 independent:1 free:1 thinking:1 lead:1 thing:1 like:4 bed:2 school:3 without:2 remind:1 also:2 definitely:1 cuddle:1 play:1 precious:1 part:1 three:2 u:3 snuggle:1 together:3 share:2 story:1 chat:2 busy:1 time:3 morning:1 ready:1 prepare:1 breakfast:1 clean:1 bag:1 fly:1 arm:1 reach:1 foot:1 shuffle:1 voice:1 door:2 campaigning:1 extra:1 hour:2 spend:2 every:2 moment:1 connect:1 phone:1 neither:1 anywhere:1 blackberry:1 even:1 note:1 outdoor:1 activity:1 rid:1 bike:1 swimming:1 weather:1 bad:1 curl:1 couch:1 watch:1 movie:1 read:2 book:2 harry:1 potter:1 loud:1 negotiate:1 agreement:1 give:1 smoking:1 exchange:1 else:1 health:2 important:3 true:1 one:2 condition:1 run:2 proper:1 diet:1 regular:1 exercise:1 physical:1 mental:1 benefit:1 hit:1 gym:1 four:1 hectic:1 snack:1 lot:1 importance:1 often:1 last:1 list:1 guilty:1 pleasure:1 yes:1 french:1 fry:1 mean:1 african:2 american:3 lady:2 thought:1 straight:1 affect:1 view:1 regardless:2 win:1 election:1 grow:1 america:2 president:1 normal:1 confidence:1 instill:1 mind:3 across:1 something:1 issue:1 top:1 find:1 military:1 interested:1 national:1 service:1 americorps:1 program:1 young:1 leader:1 community:2 expand:1 open:1 c:1 folks:1 activism:1 year:1 ago:1 happen:1 november:1 hope:2 dream:1 economy:1 people:1 affordable:1 quality:1 available:1 everyone:1 inherit:1 |@ngramms michelle_obama:1 husband_barack:1 malia_sasha:1 work_woman:1 campaign_event:2 world_live:1 good_place:1 work_family:1 campaign_family:1 share_story:1 time_day:1 reach_foot:1 family_barack:1 support_campaign:1 barack_run:1 make_campaign:1 talk_lot:1 african_american:2 win_election:1 military_family:1 work_mother:1 service_run:1 chicago_work:1 young_leader:1 share_american:1 hard_work:1 health_care:1 |
barack.obama.4 | Twin sisters, Obama on parallel paths for years Retracing the steps of history, Eleanor Nordyke now realizes that she was in labor with twin daughters while Barack Obama, now the president-elect, was being born at what is now Kapi-'olani Medical Center for Women & Children. The twins, Susan "Nunu" Bell and Gretchen "Nini" Worthington, were not only born in the same hospital hours after the future president, but also ended up in the same classes with Obama at Noelani Elementary School and later at Punahou School from the seventh grade to graduation in 1979. "I think it was remarkable that they just so happened to be born within 24 hours of each other and grew up knowing each other," Nordyke said. She did not know Obama's mother, Ann Dunham, while they were in labor together on Aug. 4, 1961, at the old Kapiolani Maternity and Gynecological Hospital. But Nordyke was a population research fellow at the East-West Center while Dunham was there. And Nordyke later met Madelyn Dunham — Ann Dunham's mother and Obama's grandmother — during a cruise to Tahiti in 2002. "She was placed at our table on the ship," Nordyke said. "She sat with us on that ship for three weeks. She told us that her daughter had passed away and that she had raised her grandson, and he was a social worker in Chicago." When Obama was making his successful presidential run, Nordyke realized that her daughters were born within hours of him at the same hospital. The Hawai'i certificate of live birth that Obama displays on his Web site shows he was born at 7:24 p.m. on Aug. 4. Nordyke was well into labor by then with girls who were three weeks premature. By 2 p.m. the following day, Susan was born at 5 pounds, 12 ounces, and Gretchen weighed in at 6 pounds, 4 ounces. As toddlers, the girls called each other "Nunu" and "Nini" "and the other children picked it up, and we held onto it all this time," Nordyke said. With the names Nordyke and Obama, the twins were often pictured near Obama in their class yearbooks, their mother said. The daughters now live on the Mainland, and neither returned repeated telephone messages seeking comment. But one or both may return to Honolulu in June when their class celebrates its 30th reunion, Nordyke said. | barack.obama.4 |@lemmatized twin:4 sister:1 obama:9 parallel:1 path:1 year:1 retrace:1 step:1 history:1 eleanor:1 nordyke:10 realize:2 labor:3 daughter:4 barack:1 president:2 elect:1 bear:6 kapi:1 olani:1 medical:1 center:2 woman:1 child:2 susan:2 nunu:2 bell:1 gretchen:2 nini:2 worthington:1 hospital:3 hour:3 future:1 also:1 end:1 class:3 noelani:1 elementary:1 school:2 later:2 punahou:1 seventh:1 grade:1 graduation:1 think:1 remarkable:1 happen:1 within:2 grow:1 know:2 say:5 mother:3 ann:2 dunham:4 together:1 aug:2 old:1 kapiolani:1 maternity:1 gynecological:1 population:1 research:1 fellow:1 east:1 west:1 meet:1 madelyn:1 grandmother:1 cruise:1 tahiti:1 place:1 table:1 ship:2 sit:1 u:2 three:2 week:2 tell:1 pass:1 away:1 raise:1 grandson:1 social:1 worker:1 chicago:1 make:1 successful:1 presidential:1 run:1 hawai:1 certificate:1 live:2 birth:1 display:1 web:1 site:1 show:1 p:2 well:1 girl:2 premature:1 following:1 day:1 pound:2 ounce:2 weigh:1 toddler:1 call:1 pick:1 hold:1 onto:1 time:1 name:1 often:1 picture:1 near:1 yearbook:1 mainland:1 neither:1 return:2 repeat:1 telephone:1 message:1 seek:1 comment:1 one:1 may:1 honolulu:1 june:1 celebrate:1 reunion:1 |@ngramms barack_obama:1 president_elect:1 medical_center:1 woman_child:1 class_obama:1 happen_bear:1 obama_mother:1 mother_obama:1 obama_make:1 presidential_run:1 web_site:1 |
premier.league.25 | Alex McLeish says Aston Villa struggle to compete with top clubs Aston Villa manager Alex McLeish admits the club and the majority of the Premier League cannot compete with the growing new breed of "super clubs". Villa have sold Ashley Young, Stewart Downing, Gareth Barry, James Milner and Gary Cahill, who all appeared for England against Wales in midweek. McLeish says he has tried to balance the books at the club since leaving Birmingham to take over in June. He said: "We can't compete with the super clubs." The Scot added: "They are on a different planet. There are a bunch of clubs that are very difficult for everyone else to compete with in the long run, no doubt about it." McLeish, whose side visit Everton on Saturday, added: "Everybody in football, no matter who it is, has their price. But, in one-off games, there is always a possibility with the great competitiveness of the Premier League that you will get results. "Time and time again we've said we are looking to get our finances on an even keel." But the former Rangers manager is also content with his squad after acquiring Alan Hutton and Jermaine Jenas from Tottenham before the transfer window closed. He said: "We lost Luke Young and Jean Makoun , so it was two chunks of experience out of the squad that I felt was important to replace. "Have I got enough now? I've never got enough. There is no doubt we are trying to keep things on an even keel while maintaining our competitive position. I think the two players we have brought in are two good acquisitions." Striker Darren Bent is on course to return for action with Villa this weekend after missing England's Euro 2012 qualifiers against Bulgaria and Wales with a groin problem. | premier.league.25 |@lemmatized alex:2 mcleish:4 say:5 aston:2 villa:4 struggle:1 compete:4 top:1 club:6 manager:2 admit:1 majority:1 premier:2 league:2 cannot:1 grow:1 new:1 breed:1 super:2 sell:1 ashley:1 young:2 stewart:1 downing:1 gareth:1 barry:1 james:1 milner:1 gary:1 cahill:1 appear:1 england:2 wale:2 midweek:1 try:2 balance:1 book:1 since:1 leave:1 birmingham:1 take:1 june:1 scot:1 add:2 different:1 planet:1 bunch:1 difficult:1 everyone:1 else:1 long:1 run:1 doubt:2 whose:1 side:1 visit:1 everton:1 saturday:1 everybody:1 football:1 matter:1 price:1 one:1 game:1 always:1 possibility:1 great:1 competitiveness:1 get:4 result:1 time:2 look:1 finance:1 even:2 keel:2 former:1 ranger:1 also:1 content:1 squad:2 acquire:1 alan:1 hutton:1 jermaine:1 jena:1 tottenham:1 transfer:1 window:1 close:1 lose:1 luke:1 jean:1 makoun:1 two:3 chunk:1 experience:1 felt:1 important:1 replace:1 enough:2 never:1 keep:1 thing:1 maintain:1 competitive:1 position:1 think:1 player:1 bring:1 good:1 acquisition:1 striker:1 darren:1 bent:1 course:1 return:1 action:1 weekend:1 miss:1 euro:1 qualifier:1 bulgaria:1 groin:1 problem:1 |@ngramms premier_league:2 super_club:2 long_run:1 visit_everton:1 time_time:1 |
malaysia.airlines.flight.22 | Search for MH370 to be most expensive in aviation history The hunt for missing Malaysian Airlines Flight MH370 is on track to cost hundreds of millions of dollars, becoming the most expensive search in aviation history with 26 countries contributing planes, ships, submarines and satellites to the international effort. A month into the search for the jet, estimates compiled by Reuters show that at least $44 million has already been spent on the deployment of military ships and aircraft in the Indian Ocean and South China Sea by Australia, China, the United States and Vietnam. The figure is based on defense force statistics on available hourly costs of various assets, estimates by defense analysts and costs reported by the Pentagon. The figure for the first month of the search is already about equal to the official 32 million euros ($44 million) spent in searches lasting several months spread over a two-year time frame for Air France's Flight AF447, which crashed into the Mid-Atlantic in 2009. Just as salvage experts said the actual costs for the Air France operation could have been three or four times higher than the official figure, the bill for the current search is expected to run into hundreds of millions of dollars. The $44 million estimate for MH370 does not cover all the defense assets being used by countries including Britain, France, New Zealand and South Korea, nor numerous other costs such as civilian aircraft, accommodation for hundreds of personnel and expenses for intelligence analysts worldwide. Britain dispatched a nuclear-powered submarine, HMS Tireless, to assist in the search, without disclosing the vessel's previous location. Angus Houston, the retired Air Chief Marshal in charge of the Australian-led international search, said on Friday he would give an overall estimate of the cost at a later date. "It's a lot of money," he said. A FINANCIAL RECKONING Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott, whose country is leading the search, and his Malaysian counterpart, Najib Razak, have repeatedly said the cost of the search is not an issue. Still, Abbott has hinted that Australia, which has so far borne the brunt of the expense as the search homes in on the southern Indian Ocean off its western coast, may at some point be sending out invoices. "It's only reasonable that we should bear this cost - it's an act of international citizenship," Abbott said last week. "At some point, there might need to be a reckoning, there might need to be some kind of tallying, but nevertheless we are happy to be as helpful as we can to all the countries that have a stake in this." A Malaysian government source, who declined to be identified as he was not authorized to speak to the media, said the entire search and recovery for MH370 could be at least double the money spent to recover the black box from Air France's AF447. Australia has so far contributed around half of the cost, with ships and aircraft on duty for some three weeks. Its HMAS Success alone costs around A$550,000 ($511,000) a day to operate, according to Australian Defence Force, or ADF, figures. "The search effort for MH370 is costing the ADF at least A$800,000 per day and possibly considerably more than that," said Kym Bergmann, editor of Asia-Pacific Defence Reporter and a former government defence adviser. "While that might not sound like much compared with the ADF's annual sustainment budget of A$5 billion, if this continues for much longer other activities such as 'Operation Sovereign Borders' will be under pressure to find savings," he added, referring to the federal government's policy of turning back asylum seeker boats that approach from Indonesia. CHINA, U.S. SPENDING The other big spenders so far are China and the United States. China, which was home to the majority of the 227 passengers on board the missing plane, has sent a total of 18 ships, eight helicopters and three fixed-wing aircraft to various search areas during the month-long hunt. Beijing has declined to comment on how much it is spending on looking for the aircraft, saying only it is dedicated to keep searching "as long as there is a shred of hope". China has been sending two Ilyushin Il-76 aircraft, on alternate days, on sorties from RAAF Pearce Base near Perth for almost three weeks. The Global Times, an influential tabloid published by the ruling Communist Party's official People's Daily, estimated that an Ilyushin Il-76 costs $10,000 an hour to keep in the air on fuel alone, not including money spent on maintenance or accommodation for the crews. Chinese warships would cost at least $100,000 a day to operate, and most likely a lot more, the newspaper added. "There's a lot of pressure in China to find the plane," said a Beijing-based Western diplomat. "China will spare no effort." The Pentagon said last week that it had already spent more than $3.3 million on the search and has put in place plans to nearly double its original $4 million budget. As well as flying its P-8 surveillance planes out of Perth, the U.S. Navy is playing an instrumental role via its high-tech underwater black-box detector equipment. It has sent both its Towed Pinger Locator, which this week picked up signals which may be from the missing plane's cockpit data recorders, and a Bluefin-21 autonomous underwater vehicle. An earlier search in the South China Sea by Vietnam was estimated by local media to cost $8 million, a figure that has not been verified by officials. | malaysia.airlines.flight.22 |@lemmatized search:17 expensive:2 aviation:2 history:2 hunt:2 miss:3 malaysian:3 airline:1 flight:2 track:1 cost:14 hundred:3 million:9 dollar:2 become:1 country:4 contribute:2 plane:5 ship:4 submarine:2 satellite:1 international:3 effort:3 month:4 jet:1 estimate:6 compile:1 reuters:1 show:1 least:4 already:3 spend:6 deployment:1 military:1 aircraft:6 indian:2 ocean:2 south:3 china:9 sea:2 australia:3 united:2 state:2 vietnam:2 figure:5 base:3 defense:3 force:2 statistic:1 available:1 hourly:1 various:2 asset:2 analyst:2 report:1 pentagon:2 first:1 equal:1 official:4 euro:1 spent:1 last:3 several:1 spread:1 two:2 year:1 time:3 frame:1 air:5 france:4 crash:1 mid:1 atlantic:1 salvage:1 expert:1 say:10 actual:1 operation:2 could:2 three:4 four:1 higher:1 bill:1 current:1 expect:1 run:1 cover:1 use:1 include:2 britain:2 new:1 zealand:1 korea:1 numerous:1 civilian:1 accommodation:2 personnel:1 expense:2 intelligence:1 worldwide:1 dispatch:1 nuclear:1 powered:1 hm:1 tireless:1 assist:1 without:1 disclose:1 vessel:1 previous:1 location:1 angus:1 houston:1 retired:1 chief:1 marshal:1 charge:1 australian:3 lead:2 friday:1 would:2 give:1 overall:1 late:1 date:1 lot:3 money:3 financial:1 reckoning:2 prime:1 minister:1 tony:1 abbott:3 whose:1 counterpart:1 najib:1 razak:1 repeatedly:1 issue:1 still:1 hint:1 far:3 bear:2 brunt:1 home:2 southern:1 western:2 coast:1 may:2 point:2 send:4 invoice:1 reasonable:1 act:1 citizenship:1 week:5 might:3 need:2 kind:1 tallying:1 nevertheless:1 happy:1 helpful:1 stake:1 government:3 source:1 decline:2 identify:1 authorize:1 speak:1 medium:2 entire:1 recovery:1 double:2 recover:1 black:2 box:2 around:2 half:1 duty:1 hmas:1 success:1 alone:2 day:4 operate:2 accord:1 defence:3 adf:3 per:1 possibly:1 considerably:1 kym:1 bergmann:1 editor:1 asia:1 pacific:1 reporter:1 former:1 adviser:1 sound:1 like:1 much:3 compare:1 annual:1 sustainment:1 budget:2 billion:1 continue:1 long:3 activity:1 sovereign:1 border:1 pressure:2 find:2 saving:1 add:2 refer:1 federal:1 policy:1 turn:1 back:1 asylum:1 seeker:1 boat:1 approach:1 indonesia:1 u:2 big:1 spender:1 majority:1 passenger:1 board:1 total:1 eight:1 helicopter:1 fix:1 wing:1 area:1 beijing:2 comment:1 look:1 dedicate:1 keep:2 shred:1 hope:1 ilyushin:2 il:2 alternate:1 sortie:1 raaf:1 pearce:1 near:1 perth:2 almost:1 global:1 influential:1 tabloid:1 publish:1 rule:1 communist:1 party:1 people:1 daily:1 hour:1 fuel:1 maintenance:1 crew:1 chinese:1 warship:1 likely:1 newspaper:1 diplomat:1 spare:1 put:1 place:1 plan:1 nearly:1 original:1 well:1 fly:1 p:1 surveillance:1 navy:1 play:1 instrumental:1 role:1 via:1 high:1 tech:1 underwater:2 detector:1 equipment:1 towed:1 pinger:1 locator:1 pick:1 signal:1 cockpit:1 data:1 recorder:1 bluefin:1 autonomous:1 vehicle:1 early:1 local:1 verify:1 |@ngramms aviation_history:2 miss_malaysian:1 airline_flight:1 hundred_million:2 plane_ship:1 international_effort:1 month_search:2 ship_aircraft:2 indian_ocean:1 china_sea:2 australia_china:1 united_state:2 million_euro:1 time_frame:1 flight_crash:1 search_expect:1 million_estimate:1 country_include:1 south_korea:1 air_chief:1 international_search:1 estimate_cost:1 lot_money:1 prime_minister:1 lead_search:1 najib_razak:1 southern_indian_ocean:1 western_coast:1 malaysian_government:1 money_spend:2 black_box:2 day_operate:2 australian_defence:1 search_effort:1 federal_government:1 passenger_board:1 miss_plane:2 search_area:1 china_send:1 find_plane:1 spend_million:1 put_place:1 pick_signal:1 search_south:1 local_medium:1 cost_million:1 |
samsung.galaxy.s5.43 | Samsung Galaxy S5 said not selling as well as S4 Samsung reportedly sells 40 percent fewer Galaxy S5 phones than expected during its first three months on sale, prompting a change in mobile strategy and possible management shake-up. Samsung's Galaxy S5 might be one of the most advanced smartphones the company has launched, but it's reportedly not selling as well as the company hoped. In the first three months since its April release, Samsung sold 40 percent fewer of the big-screen Galaxy S5 smartphones -- designed to take on Apple's iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus -- than expected, The Wall Street Journal reported on Sunday. In total, Samsung sold 12 million Galaxy S5 units during the three-month period, compared to 16 million Galaxy S4 units during the same period, the report claims, citing people who claim to have knowledge of Samsung's plans. For its part, Samsung has not disclosed actual Galaxy S5 sales, but the company reported a 74 percent year-over-year drop in profit in its mobile business during its last fiscal quarter. It also warned that conditions would remain tough in smartphones as competition heats up toward the end of the year. The Journal suggests the company could be shaking up its corporate structure. Samsung is contemplating removing J.K. Shin, the company's current mobile chief, from his post and replacing him with B.K. Yoon, who currently serves as chief executive of the company's home appliances and television operations, the Journal reported. It's not clear when a decision might be made on the matter. Samsung did not immediately respond to a request for comment Monday on the Journal's story. Samsung launched the Galaxy S5 to much fanfare in April. The device was viewed as an evolutionary upgrade to the Galaxy S4, featuring a textured backplate and improved resistance to dust and water. CNET senior editor Jessica Dolcourt gave the handset a score of four-and-a-half stars out of five, saying that while it was "subtly improved and smartly refined," the Galaxy S5 was overall "a superior smartphone that hits every mark but the sharpest design." However, the company's mobile troubles have been well-documented over the last several months as it has been forced to acknowledge that increased competition internationally -- especially in China -- and growing concern over its margins have caused it to rethink its mobile strategy. Samsung is planning to reduce the number of devices it sells and maintain more of its focus on those that are particularly popular. Despite the Galaxy S5's troubles, it actually sold better than the S4 in the US, according to the Journal. In China, arguably one of the most important mobile markets worldwide with the growing consumer market, sales were down 50 percent compared to the Galaxy S4. | samsung.galaxy.s5.43 |@lemmatized samsung:11 galaxy:12 say:2 sell:7 well:3 reportedly:2 percent:4 phone:1 expect:2 first:2 three:3 month:4 sale:3 prompt:1 change:1 mobile:6 strategy:2 possible:1 management:1 shake:2 might:2 one:2 advanced:1 smartphones:3 company:7 launch:2 hop:1 since:1 april:2 release:1 big:1 screen:1 design:2 take:1 apple:1 iphone:2 plus:1 wall:1 street:1 journal:5 report:4 sunday:1 total:1 million:2 unit:2 period:2 compare:2 claim:2 cite:1 people:1 knowledge:1 plan:2 part:1 disclose:1 actual:1 year:3 drop:1 profit:1 business:1 last:2 fiscal:1 quarter:1 also:1 warn:1 condition:1 would:1 remain:1 tough:1 competition:2 heat:1 toward:1 end:1 suggest:1 could:1 corporate:1 structure:1 contemplate:1 remove:1 j:1 k:2 shin:1 current:1 chief:2 post:1 replace:1 b:1 yoon:1 currently:1 serve:1 executive:1 home:1 appliance:1 television:1 operation:1 clear:1 decision:1 make:1 matter:1 immediately:1 respond:1 request:1 comment:1 monday:1 story:1 much:1 fanfare:1 device:2 view:1 evolutionary:1 upgrade:1 feature:1 textured:1 backplate:1 improve:2 resistance:1 dust:1 water:1 cnet:1 senior:1 editor:1 jessica:1 dolcourt:1 give:1 handset:1 score:1 four:1 half:1 star:1 five:1 subtly:1 smartly:1 refine:1 overall:1 superior:1 smartphone:1 hit:1 every:1 mark:1 sharp:1 however:1 trouble:2 document:1 several:1 force:1 acknowledge:1 increase:1 internationally:1 especially:1 china:2 grow:2 concern:1 margin:1 cause:1 rethink:1 reduce:1 number:1 maintain:1 focus:1 particularly:1 popular:1 despite:1 actually:1 good:1 u:1 accord:1 arguably:1 important:1 market:2 worldwide:1 consumer:1 |@ngramms samsung_galaxy:2 sell_percent:2 galaxy_phone:1 mobile_strategy:2 company_hop:1 big_screen:1 galaxy_smartphones:1 apple_iphone:1 wall_street:1 journal_report:2 sunday_total:1 sell_million:1 galaxy_unit:2 samsung_plan:2 galaxy_sale:1 company_report:1 mobile_business:1 chief_executive:1 matter_samsung:1 respond_request:1 story_samsung:1 launch_galaxy:1 upgrade_galaxy:1 dust_water:1 increase_competition:1 china_grow:1 device_sell:1 sell_good:1 mobile_market:1 percent_compare:1 |
debt.crisis.greece.179 | Greek debt fears sink Wall Street, more losses eyed Stocks tumbled on Wednesday, driven lower by escalating Greek debt woes, while troubling U.S. data pointed to further losses ahead. Financials came under fire after Moody's Investors Service said it may cut the credit ratings of French banks, citing exposure to Greek debt. U.S. data showed the U.S. economy is facing a troubling mix of higher prices and weak growth. "Every day that we get another negative macro report -- they can't keep brushing it under the rug and say we are in a soft patch and it's only temporary," said Ken Polcari, managing director at ICAP Equities in New York. "They tried to play the Greece thing off like it was going to be settled and clearly it's not, so it's all coming back to haunt them." The day's losses left the S&P 500 within a stone's throw of its 200-day moving average of 1,256.82. If that level is breached, losses would be likely to accelerate. Declines in insurers' shares outpaced the broader market, with the KBW insurance index .KIX down 3 percent. Allstate (ALL.N) lost 2.5 percent to $29.48. Energy shares also depressed the market as signs of economic weakness fed worries about demand, sending crude to its lowest level since February. Chevron Corp (CVX.N), down 2.2 percent at $98.41, was the biggest drag on the Dow. TheNYSEArca oil index .XOI slumped 2.5 percent. <O/R> Profit forecasts from companies, including Nucor Corp (NUE.N), Owens Illinois (OI.N) and Ford (F.N), highlighted concerns about the impact that a lethargic economy could have on earnings. "It's only adding to the negative mood today, but that also might be a precursor of what is to come," Polcari said. The Dow Jones industrial average .DJI dropped 178.84 points, or 1.48 percent, to 11,897.27. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index .SPX lost 22.45 points, or 1.74 percent, to 1,265.42. The Nasdaq Composite Index .IXIC slid 47.26 points, or 1.76 percent, to 2,631.46. VIX SURGES, PANDORA FLIES The CBOE Volatility Index .VIX jumped 16.8 percent to 21.32 -- its highest level since March 18. The data confirmed views that the economy is getting weaker even as prices are rising. Those economic worries have been largely behind a 7 percent slide in the S&P 500 since its near three-year high on May 2nd. The core U.S. Consumer Price Index, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, rose more than expected in May, while the New York Federal Reserve's Empire State manufacturing index unexpectedly shrank in June, falling below zero for the first time since November. Even with the selling pressure on Wall Street, Pandora Media Inc (P.N) managed a successful debut as investors shrugged off profit concerns for the online radio service. Pandora's stock rose 8.9 percent to $17.42, but was well off its intraday high of $23.75. At its peak, Pandora's stock was up as much as 48.4 percent from its IPO price of $16. In the insurance industry, Allstate suffered a setback in its lawsuit against Bank of America Corp's Countrywide unit over toxic mortgage debt, with a Manhattan federal judge moving the dispute to Los Angeles. Steelmaker Nucor issued a forecast that missed Wall Street's expectations, and its shares fell 2.2 percent to $39.80. Shares of Owens Illinois, the world's largest maker of glass bottles, tumbled 13.5 percent to $25.54 after the company cut its second-quarter outlook. The stock of No. 2 U.S. automaker Ford lost 2.1 percent to $13.15. Volume picked up, with about 7.99 billion shares traded on the New York Stock Exchange, NYSE Amex and Nasdaq, slightly above the daily average of 7.58 billion. Declining stocks outnumbered advancing ones on the NYSE by 2,556 to 478, while on the Nasdaq, decliners beat advancers 2,064 to 542. | debt.crisis.greece.179 |@lemmatized greek:3 debt:4 fear:1 sink:1 wall:3 street:3 loss:4 eye:1 stock:6 tumble:2 wednesday:1 drive:1 low:2 escalate:1 woe:1 trouble:1 u:5 data:3 point:4 ahead:1 financials:1 come:3 fire:1 moody:1 investor:2 service:2 say:4 may:3 cut:2 credit:1 rating:1 french:1 bank:2 cite:1 exposure:1 show:1 economy:3 face:1 troubling:1 mix:1 high:4 price:5 weak:2 growth:1 every:1 day:3 get:2 another:1 negative:2 macro:1 report:1 keep:1 brush:1 rug:1 soft:1 patch:1 temporary:1 ken:1 polcari:2 manage:2 director:1 icap:1 equity:1 new:3 york:3 try:1 play:1 greece:1 thing:1 like:1 go:1 settle:1 clearly:1 back:1 haunt:1 leave:1 p:3 within:1 stone:1 throw:1 move:2 average:3 level:3 breach:1 would:1 likely:1 accelerate:1 decline:2 insurer:1 share:5 outpace:1 broad:1 market:2 kbw:1 insurance:2 index:7 kix:1 percent:14 allstate:2 n:6 lose:3 energy:2 also:2 depress:1 sign:1 economic:2 weakness:1 feed:1 worry:2 demand:1 send:1 crude:1 since:4 february:1 chevron:1 corp:3 cvx:1 big:1 drag:1 dow:2 thenysearca:1 oil:1 xoi:1 slump:1 r:1 profit:2 forecast:2 company:2 include:1 nucor:2 nue:1 owen:2 illinois:2 oi:1 ford:2 f:1 highlight:1 concern:2 impact:1 lethargic:1 could:1 earnings:1 add:1 mood:1 today:1 might:1 precursor:1 jones:1 industrial:1 dji:1 drop:1 standard:1 poor:1 spx:1 nasdaq:3 composite:1 ixic:1 slide:2 vix:2 surge:1 pandora:4 fly:1 cboe:1 volatility:1 jump:1 march:1 confirm:1 view:1 even:2 rise:3 largely:1 behind:1 near:1 three:1 year:1 core:1 consumer:1 exclude:1 volatile:1 food:1 expect:1 federal:2 reserve:1 empire:1 state:1 manufacturing:1 unexpectedly:1 shrink:1 june:1 fall:1 zero:1 first:1 time:1 november:1 selling:1 pressure:1 medium:1 inc:1 successful:1 debut:1 shrug:1 online:1 radio:1 well:1 intraday:1 peak:1 much:1 ipo:1 industry:1 suffer:1 setback:1 lawsuit:1 america:1 countrywide:1 unit:1 toxic:1 mortgage:1 manhattan:1 judge:1 dispute:1 los:1 angeles:1 steelmaker:1 issue:1 miss:1 expectation:1 fell:1 world:1 large:1 maker:1 glass:1 bottle:1 second:1 quarter:1 outlook:1 automaker:1 volume:1 pick:1 billion:2 trade:1 exchange:1 nyse:2 amex:1 slightly:1 daily:1 outnumber:1 advance:1 one:1 decliners:1 beat:1 advancer:1 |@ngramms greek_debt:3 wall_street:3 economy_face:1 high_price:1 manage_director:1 lose_percent:2 low_level:1 percent_big:1 highlight_concern:1 point_percent:3 jump_percent:1 price_rise:2 world_large:1 company_cut:1 |
ParisAttacks2015_(15) | Paris Attacks: 127 Dead After 'Terrorists' Using Suicide Vests Stage Multiple Attacks and Take Hostages French President Francois Hollande said at least 127 were killed on Friday in a series of six coordinated attacks in Paris that he described as an "act of war" -- blaming ISIS for the violence that included shootings, explosions and a hostage situation at a concert hall. "And when faced with war, the country must take appropriate decisions," Hollande said on Saturday. "An act committed by a terrorist army, DAESH [ISIS], against what we are, a free country that speaks together with the planet." Three days of national mourning in France has been declared, according to the French president. Eight attackers are dead, and seven died detonating suicide vests, according to Agence France-Presse, citing police. A Syrian passport was found on the body of an attacker near one of the attack sites, the Stade de France stadium, police told ABC News. French police said they believed all of the attackers involved in the shootings and bombings were dead, but authorities were searching for accomplices. Three hundred people were hospitalized, according to Paris medical authorities, including 80 people in life-threatening condition and 177 in somewhat critical condition. Forty three witnesses were also admitted, medical authorities said, adding that 53 people have since been discharged. Americans were among those injured, according to the State Department. "The U.S. government is working closely with French authorities to identify American victims," said Deputy Spokesperson Mark Toner. "We are aware there are Americans among the injured, and are offering them the full range of consular assistance." Obama: 'Heartbreaking' Paris Terror Is Attack 'On All of Humanity' Inside the Stade de France Hit By Multiple Explosions in Paris Attacks Eagles of Death Metal Searching For Band and Crew After Attack on Paris Concert Hall American Tourist in Paris Describes Hearing Shooting During Attack According to Agence France-Presse, citing a police source, three of the attackers at the concert hall died when they detonated their suicide belts as police closed in. A fourth was shot dead by police. AFP said that three more attackers were dead outside the Stade de France soccer stadium and one on a street in eastern Paris. In the wake of the attacks, Hollande said he was imposing border checks and declaring a state of emergency. Anyone deemed dangerous could be placed under house arrest. Hollande called the attacks "unprecedented" and President Obama called them an attack "on all of humanity." The two leaders shared a phone call on Friday evening where Obama expressed his condolences. "The President reiterated the United States' steadfast, unwavering support for the people of France, our oldest ally and friend, and reaffirmed the offer of any necessary support to the French investigation," the White House said. In a tweet, the Elysee Palace said: "terrorists capable of such atrocities should know that they will face a determined and united France." The attacks took place at the theater, the Stade de France and four other locations in the 10th and 11th districts. At Stade de France, Germany was playing France in soccer. Hollande was at the game at the time and was evacuated. One witness, Margot Schmorak, told ABC News via Skype that one of the attacks "was around the corner from us, about a half a block down." Schmorak and three colleagues "were sitting outside on sidewalk ... we heard a bunch of gun shots. Maybe 8 to 10, and then there was kind of a pause, and there was a few more." "We actually said to each other, 'Is that gunshots or is it firecrackers or something else?' And then one of my friends actually said, 'I think it's gunshots.' And we saw people running from around the corner," she said. Another witness, Emilioi Macchio, was at a bar when he heard gunshots, according to the Associated Press. "It sounded like fireworks," Macchio said, the AP reported. Police in Paris were recommending that residents avoid going out unless absolutely necessary and the subway system was shut down. All public buildings in Paris, including schools, museums, libraries and town halls, were closed indefinitely starting Saturday. The U.S. Embassy in Paris advises official U.S. personnel and citizens to shelter in place. The Department of Homeland Security said it is closely monitoring the events in Paris and said there was no specific or credible threat to the United States. DHS said it's in contact with its counterparts in the area and "will not hesitate to adjust our security posture, as appropriate, to protect the American people." Eagles of Death Metal, an American rock band that was performing at Bataclan on Friday, said in a statement, "We are still currently trying to determine the safety and whereabouts of all our band and crew. Our thoughts are with all of the people involved in this tragic situation." President Obama said from the White House Friday that, while the details of the attacks in France are unknown, the U.S. stands together with France "in the fight against terrorism and extremism." Obama called France an "extraordinary counter-terrorism partner." "Paris itself represents the timeless values of human progress," Obama said, adding that the "American people draw strength from the French people's commitment to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." A federal law enforcement source said the FBI set up a "command post" to help monitor and respond to the attacks. The FBI is actively trying to help French authorities, but as of now, U.S. authorities do not know who is responsible. | ParisAttacks2015_(15) |@lemmatized paris:13 attack:15 dead:5 terrorist:3 use:1 suicide:3 vest:2 stage:1 multiple:2 take:3 hostage:2 french:7 president:5 francois:1 hollande:5 say:20 least:1 kill:1 friday:4 series:1 six:1 coordinated:1 describe:1 act:2 war:2 blame:1 isi:2 violence:1 include:3 shooting:2 explosion:2 situation:2 concert:3 hall:4 face:2 country:2 must:1 appropriate:2 decision:1 saturday:2 commit:1 army:1 daesh:1 free:1 speak:1 together:2 planet:1 three:6 day:1 national:1 mourning:1 france:14 declare:2 accord:6 eight:1 attacker:5 seven:1 die:2 detonate:2 agence:2 presse:2 cite:2 police:7 syrian:1 passport:1 find:1 body:1 near:1 one:5 sit:2 stade:5 de:5 stadium:2 tell:2 abc:2 news:2 believe:1 involve:2 bombing:1 authority:6 search:2 accomplice:1 hundred:1 people:9 hospitalize:1 medical:2 life:2 threatening:1 condition:2 somewhat:1 critical:1 forty:1 witness:3 also:1 admit:1 add:2 since:1 discharge:1 american:7 among:2 injure:1 state:4 department:2 u:6 government:1 work:1 closely:2 identify:1 victim:1 deputy:1 spokesperson:1 mark:1 toner:1 aware:1 injured:1 offer:2 full:1 range:1 consular:1 assistance:1 obama:6 heartbreaking:1 terror:1 humanity:2 inside:1 hit:1 eagle:2 death:2 metal:2 band:3 crew:2 tourist:1 describes:1 hear:3 shoot:2 source:2 belt:1 close:2 fourth:1 afp:1 outside:2 soccer:2 street:1 eastern:1 wake:1 impose:1 border:1 check:1 emergency:1 anyone:1 deem:1 dangerous:1 could:1 place:3 house:3 arrest:1 call:4 unprecedented:1 two:1 leader:1 share:1 phone:1 even:1 express:1 condolence:1 reiterate:1 united:3 steadfast:1 unwavering:1 support:2 old:1 ally:1 friend:2 reaffirm:1 necessary:2 investigation:1 white:2 tweet:1 elysee:1 palace:1 capable:1 atrocity:1 know:2 determined:1 theater:1 four:1 location:1 district:1 germany:1 play:1 game:1 time:1 evacuate:1 margot:1 schmorak:2 via:1 skype:1 around:2 corner:2 half:1 block:1 colleague:1 sidewalk:1 bunch:1 gun:1 shot:1 maybe:1 kind:1 pause:1 actually:2 gunshot:3 firecrackers:1 something:1 else:1 think:1 saw:1 run:1 another:1 emilioi:1 macchio:2 bar:1 associated:1 press:1 sound:1 like:1 firework:1 ap:1 report:1 recommend:1 resident:1 avoid:1 go:1 unless:1 absolutely:1 subway:1 system:1 shut:1 public:1 building:1 school:1 museum:1 library:1 town:1 indefinitely:1 start:1 embassy:1 advises:1 official:1 personnel:1 citizen:1 shelter:1 homeland:1 security:2 monitor:2 event:1 specific:1 credible:1 threat:1 dhs:1 contact:1 counterpart:1 area:1 hesitate:1 adjust:1 posture:1 protect:1 rock:1 perform:1 bataclan:1 statement:1 still:1 currently:1 try:2 determine:1 safety:1 whereabouts:1 thought:1 tragic:1 detail:1 unknown:1 stand:1 fight:1 terrorism:2 extremism:1 extraordinary:1 counter:1 partner:1 represent:1 timeless:1 value:1 human:1 progress:1 draw:1 strength:1 commitment:1 liberty:1 pursuit:1 happiness:1 federal:1 law:1 enforcement:1 fbi:2 set:1 command:1 post:1 help:2 respond:1 actively:1 responsible:1 |@ngramms paris_attack:2 suicide_vest:2 multiple_attack:1 french_president:2 kill_friday:1 attack_paris:2 act_war:1 concert_hall:3 hollande_say_saturday:1 attacker_dead:2 die_detonate:1 syrian_passport:1 french_police:1 authority_search:1 hundred_people:1 accord_paris:1 medical_authority:1 people_life:1 add_people:1 state_department:1 french_authority:2 american_victim:1 full_range:1 terror_attack:1 eagle_death_metal:2 band_crew:2 attack_accord:1 police_source:1 detonate_suicide:1 belt_police:1 close_fourth:1 shoot_dead:1 soccer_stadium:1 eastern_paris:1 wake_attack:1 border_check:1 state_emergency:1 house_arrest:1 call_attack:2 president_obama:1 phone_call:1 obama_express:1 united_state:2 support_french:1 white_house:2 terrorist_capable:1 germany_play:1 game_time:1 people_run:1 report_police:1 system_shut:1 town_hall:1 american_people:2 rock_band:1 people_involve:1 fight_terrorism:1 obama_call:1 french_people:1 respond_attack:1 |
michelle.obama.144 | Michelle Obama: As Barack's First Lady, I Would Work to Help Working Families and Military Families Military and working families would be my focus, Michelle Obama writes, along with a sleepover or two A few weeks ago at the Democratic National Convention in Denver, I shared with the nation some of the many reasons why I believe my husband will be an extraordinary president. It was the biggest speech I'd ever given. When I was finished, I headed backstage with my daughters. They turned to me, breathless with excitement. "Mom," Malia, our 10-year-old, said. "We have something important to tell you. We need to have a sleepover!" That snapped me out of speech mode, with the bright lights and applause, and back into the role I love: Mom. The next night, 15 giggling girls—my daughters, the Biden granddaughters, and friends—took over our hotel room. If Barack is elected president, I would be honored to be first lady. I would work daily on the issues closest to my heart: helping working women and families, particularly military families. But as my girls reminded me in Denver, even as first lady, my No. 1 job would still be Mom. At 7 and 10, our daughters are young. If we move to Washington, my first priority will be to ensure they stay grounded and healthy, with normal childhoods—including homework, chores, dance, and soccer. Our girls are the center of Barack's and my world. They're the reason he is running for president—to make the world a better place for them and for all children. For us, and for millions of Americans, that's what this election is about—making sure that America remains a country where everyone can fulfill their God-given potential. Barack and I have traveled to every corner of the country, talking with people about their lives and dreams. Their stories have touched our hearts and strengthened our resolve. They've made us more certain than ever that, despite any differences we may have, there is so much that unites us as Americans. But times are tough. Parents are working harder than ever to raise their kids, pay bills, help out their parents, and keep up with the rising cost of living. Caring for their families is their greatest joy—but it's harder to make ends meet. We've talked to mothers whose salaries can't cover the cost of groceries—but if they take a second job, they can't afford the additional cost of child care. More than 22 million working women don't have paid sick days. Millions of women are doing the same jobs as men—but they're earning less. It's even harder for military spouses. Their husbands and wives are away serving our nation for months at a time. So they have to be Mom and Dad. They're working, checking in on their in-laws, helping with homework, and doling out discipline—and every night, they're praying with all their hearts for their loved ones' safe return. These families aren't asking the government to fix their problems. They're asking for it to understand what's happening to their families and to find real ways to help. American stories. As first lady, I'd continue these conversations with working women and military spouses, and I'd take their stories back to Washington to make sure that the people who run our country know how their policies touch their constituents' lives. The struggles of America's families aren't new to Barack. He was raised by a single mom who put herself through school and built a career that she loved while still finding time to read to him each morning. So, he knows how heroic America's parents can be. That's why he is committed to restoring the middle class, cutting taxes for 95 percent of all working Americans, establishing pay equity for women, and expanding family leave. He also knows that when our military goes to war, their families go with them. He's a strong advocate for predictable deployments and for better healthcare—including mental health care—for returning servicemen and women. These issues are my passions. Win or lose on November 4, I'll keep working to find solutions that make a real difference in people's lives. If Barack has the chance to serve as president, we will fill our home with talk of how to better serve our nation's families. And occasionally, when our daughters insist, we'll host sleepovers, too. | michelle.obama.144 |@lemmatized michelle:2 obama:2 barack:6 first:5 lady:4 would:5 work:10 help:5 family:12 military:6 focus:1 writes:1 along:1 sleepover:3 two:1 week:1 ago:1 democratic:1 national:1 convention:1 denver:2 share:1 nation:3 many:1 reason:2 believe:1 husband:2 extraordinary:1 president:4 big:1 speech:2 ever:3 give:2 finish:1 head:1 backstage:1 daughter:4 turn:1 breathless:1 excitement:1 mom:5 malia:1 year:1 old:1 say:1 something:1 important:1 tell:1 need:1 snap:1 mode:1 bright:1 light:1 applause:1 back:2 role:1 love:2 next:1 night:2 giggle:1 girl:3 biden:1 granddaughter:1 friends:1 take:3 hotel:1 room:1 elect:1 honor:1 daily:1 issue:2 closest:1 heart:3 woman:6 particularly:1 remind:1 even:2 job:3 still:2 young:1 move:1 washington:2 priority:1 ensure:1 stay:1 ground:1 healthy:1 normal:1 childhood:1 include:2 homework:2 chore:1 dance:1 soccer:1 center:1 world:2 run:2 make:6 good:2 place:1 child:2 u:3 million:3 american:4 election:1 sure:2 america:3 remain:1 country:3 everyone:1 fulfill:1 god:1 potential:1 travel:1 every:2 corner:1 talk:3 people:3 life:3 dream:1 story:3 touch:2 strengthen:1 resolve:1 certain:1 despite:1 difference:2 may:1 much:1 unite:1 time:3 tough:1 parent:3 hard:2 raise:2 kid:1 pay:3 bill:1 keep:2 rise:1 cost:3 living:1 care:3 great:1 joy:1 harder:1 ends:1 meet:1 mother:1 whose:1 salary:1 cover:1 grocery:1 second:1 afford:1 additional:1 sick:1 day:1 men:1 earn:1 less:1 spouse:2 wife:1 away:1 serve:3 month:1 dad:1 check:1 law:1 doling:1 discipline:1 pray:1 loved:1 one:1 safe:1 return:2 ask:2 government:1 fix:1 problem:1 understand:1 happen:1 find:3 real:2 way:1 continue:1 conversation:1 know:3 policy:1 constituent:1 struggle:1 new:1 single:1 put:1 school:1 build:1 career:1 read:1 morning:1 heroic:1 commit:1 restore:1 middle:1 class:1 cut:1 tax:1 percent:1 working:1 establish:1 equity:1 expand:1 leave:1 also:1 go:2 war:1 strong:1 advocate:1 predictable:1 deployment:1 healthcare:1 mental:1 health:1 serviceman:1 passion:1 win:1 lose:1 november:1 solution:1 chance:1 fill:1 home:1 well:1 occasionally:1 insist:1 host:1 |@ngramms michelle_obama:2 work_family:2 military_family:2 week_ago:1 democratic_national:1 bright_light:1 hotel_room:1 elect_president:1 work_woman:3 move_washington:1 barack_world:1 run_president:1 make_world:1 good_place:1 remain_country:1 people_life:2 work_hard:1 care_family:1 child_care:1 woman_job:1 serve_nation:2 american_story:1 people_run:1 middle_class:1 cut_tax:1 health_care:1 win_lose:1 find_solution:1 make_real:1 |
michelle.obama.23 | Her plan went awry, but Michelle Obama doesn't mind Michelle Obama stands off to the side of her husband. It is four days after his keynote address at the Democratic National Convention in Boston, and Barack Obama, U.S. Senate candidate, is giving yet another speech. As he often does during his speeches, he introduces her, half-jokingly, as his "no-nonsense wife." They are in Ottawa, the first stop on a post-convention tour that is taking them and their two daughters to 30 counties and 39 cities Downstate over five days. From the national stage in Boston to backyard fundraisers in small Illinois towns, Michelle Obama, who directs community affairs for the University of Chicago Hospitals, is emerging as the pragmatic, smart woman who not only helps keep her husband's ego in check, but also is there to remind him of what is important. She juggles it all because she always has been a woman with "a plan." Her own story illustrates, though, that plans are subject to change--and chance. Always a disciplined and serious student, the former Michelle Robinson followed her plan from early on. It took her to Princeton University, to Harvard Law School, and on to a career at one of Chicago's top law firms. Then she met Barack Obama, a smart, charismatic young lawyer who changed her plans forever. Michelle was working at Sidley Austin Brown & Wood. Barack, who had just finished his first year at Harvard Law, was a summer associate there, and Michelle, only a few years out of law school herself, was his adviser. The two had a lot in common, except when it came to this: He wanted to date her. She had other ideas. "I was more focused on my plan," she says while finishing a decidedly unhurried lunch at La Petite Folie, one of her favorite Hyde Park restaurants. "I had made this proclamation to my mother the summer I met Barack, 'I'm not worrying about dating . . . I'm going to focus on me.'" Considering him a "friend," who was also "a great guy ... cute, really smart," she tried introducing him to other female friends. He wasn't interested. "He wanted to take me out and I didn't know that until he asked me out," she says. She resisted, telling him, "I'm your adviser. Certainly that's going to look bad. That's just way too predictable. [We are] the only two black people here, and [we're] going to start dating?' "I'm thinking, `No, that's just tacky,'" she recalls. Eventually, the planner was persuaded and the date took place. Now, 12 years of married life later, the ardent, persistent suitor is running to become the junior U.S. senator from Illinois, and the planner, well, she's adjusting to the uncertainties of political life. But, in this instance, she knows, the best-laid plans mean nothing until Election Day. One way she has been able to manage the shifting sands of politics, she says, "is to know that I have to let go of the plan, which is my nature. And it's driving me crazy, because I don't have a plan. So I have to mentally let go of the plan and [say] `we'll figure it out.'" Also her nature: a calm, direct manner that comes through whether she's in a crowded meeting hall or sitting alone with her husband. Those who know her say she has always been pragmatic, balanced. "The poise that you see is genuine," says her older brother Craig Robinson. "She is quite comfortable in all situations." David Mosena, who hired her to be his deputy chief of staff when he worked for Mayor Richard Daley in the early '90s, says, "She has her feet solidly on the ground, both of them. There's not a bone of superficiality in her. She is the real deal. ... She is very comfortable with herself." Staying sane As the countdown to Election Day enters a critical phase, and the prospect of making postelection plans becomes inevitable, Obama makes psychic and emotional space a priority for herself. She has made a deal with herself: Remain sane. "I cannot be crazy, because then I'm a crazy mother and I'm an angry wife. "What I notice about men, all men, is that their order is me, my family, God is in there somewhere, but me is first. And for women, me is fourth, and that's not healthy." Staying healthy involves working out (at 5 a.m.) four days a week; keeping up with the regular activities of daughters Malia, 6, and Sasha, 3, so they "retain that family bond"; and not missing her Friday afternoon hair and manicure appointments. And, as much as possible, she and her husband still have regular date nights. Barack Obama knows his wife is making sacrifices as she supports his run for the Senate. "She's been an enormous help, mainly by just keeping our family focused on family," he says. He also knows she's really not all that impressed with the hype that now surrounds his campaign. Sure, she "cares about her community and her country," he says, but "she's much more concerned with the kind of father I am, or the kind of husband I am than she is with whether I give a nice speech at the convention." | michelle.obama.23 |@lemmatized plan:11 go:6 awry:1 michelle:6 obama:7 mind:1 stand:1 side:1 husband:5 four:2 day:5 keynote:1 address:1 democratic:1 national:2 convention:3 boston:2 barack:5 u:2 senate:2 candidate:1 give:2 yet:1 another:1 speech:3 often:1 introduce:2 half:1 jokingly:1 nonsense:1 wife:3 ottawa:1 first:3 stop:1 post:1 tour:1 take:4 two:3 daughter:2 county:1 city:1 downstate:1 five:1 stage:1 backyard:1 fundraiser:1 small:1 illinois:2 town:1 direct:2 community:2 affair:1 university:2 chicago:2 hospital:1 emerge:1 pragmatic:2 smart:3 woman:3 help:2 keep:3 ego:1 check:1 also:4 remind:1 important:1 juggle:1 always:3 story:1 illustrates:1 though:1 subject:1 change:2 chance:1 disciplined:1 serious:1 student:1 former:1 robinson:2 follow:1 early:2 princeton:1 harvard:2 law:4 school:2 career:1 one:3 top:1 firm:1 meet:2 charismatic:1 young:1 lawyer:1 forever:1 work:3 sidley:1 austin:1 brown:1 wood:1 finish:2 year:3 summer:2 associate:1 adviser:2 lot:1 common:1 except:1 come:2 want:2 date:5 idea:1 focused:1 say:9 decidedly:1 unhurried:1 lunch:1 la:1 petite:1 folie:1 favorite:1 hyde:1 park:1 restaurant:1 make:5 proclamation:1 mother:2 worry:1 focus:2 consider:1 friend:2 great:1 guy:1 cute:1 really:2 try:1 female:1 interested:1 know:6 ask:1 resist:1 tell:1 certainly:1 look:1 bad:1 way:2 predictable:1 black:1 people:1 start:1 thinking:1 tacky:1 recall:1 eventually:1 planner:2 persuade:1 place:1 married:1 life:2 later:1 ardent:1 persistent:1 suitor:1 run:2 become:2 junior:1 senator:1 well:1 adjusting:1 uncertainty:1 political:1 instance:1 best:1 laid:1 mean:1 nothing:1 election:2 able:1 manage:1 shift:1 sand:1 politics:1 let:2 nature:2 drive:1 crazy:3 mentally:1 figure:1 calm:1 manner:1 whether:2 crowded:1 meeting:1 hall:1 sit:1 alone:1 balance:1 poise:1 see:1 genuine:1 older:1 brother:1 craig:1 quite:1 comfortable:2 situation:1 david:1 mosena:1 hire:1 deputy:1 chief:1 staff:1 mayor:1 richard:1 daley:1 foot:1 solidly:1 ground:1 bone:1 superficiality:1 real:1 deal:2 stay:2 sane:2 countdown:1 enter:1 critical:1 phase:1 prospect:1 postelection:1 inevitable:1 psychic:1 emotional:1 space:1 priority:1 remain:1 cannot:1 angry:1 notice:1 men:2 order:1 family:4 god:1 somewhere:1 fourth:1 healthy:2 involves:1 week:1 regular:2 activity:1 malia:1 sasha:1 retain:1 bond:1 miss:1 friday:1 afternoon:1 hair:1 manicure:1 appointment:1 much:2 possible:1 still:1 night:1 sacrifice:1 support:1 enormous:1 mainly:1 impressed:1 hype:1 surround:1 campaign:1 sure:1 care:1 country:1 concerned:1 kind:2 father:1 nice:1 |@ngramms michelle_obama:3 democratic_national:1 barack_obama:3 national_stage:1 university_chicago:1 subject_change:1 michelle_robinson:1 harvard_law:2 law_firm:1 michelle_work:1 law_school:1 meet_barack:1 start_date:1 election_day:2 manage_shift:1 chief_staff:1 work_mayor:1 real_deal:1 obama_make:1 daughter_malia:1 kind_husband:1 |

malaysia.airlines.flight.29 | Iranians travelling on flight MH370 on forged passports 'not linked to terror' Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 Interpol releases image of two men who used stolen documents to take flight that disappeared Two Iranians travelling on forged passports on the Malaysian Airways flight MH370, which has disappeared, had no links to terror, Interpol has revealed. The international police organisation, Interpol, has released an image of the two men, identified as Pouria Nour Mohammad, 19, and Seyed Mohammed Rezar Delawar, 29. They were friends and were hoping to seek asylum in Europe, according to Malaysian officials. "The more information we get, the more we are inclined to conclude it was not a terrorist incident," said Interpol's head, Ronald Noble. Nour Mohammad had been using a stolen Austrian passport in an attempt to reach Germany to seek asylum and reunite with his mother, Malaysian police said. His mother was waiting for him in Frankfurt. Delawar was apparently using a stolen Italian passport. Visa requirements have been eased in recent years for Iranian nationals travelling to Malaysia, making the country a popular hub for Iranian tourists, students and those looking for ways to emigrate to Europe. An unnamed Iranian, who met both passengers in Malaysia and went with them to the airport, has spoken to the BBC's Persian service about the days before their departure. "One of the two was my friend from high school," he told BBC Persian on Monday by phone from Malaysia, apparently referring to Nour Mohammad. "I met him the first day he arrived in Malaysia … He said he was staying for three to four days but was eventually going to Germany. His final destination was Frankfurt," the friend said. Nour Mohammad's latest posts on Facebook show him in Kuala Lumpur. "Feeling excited," he wrote as he arrived in Malaysia in late February. In one of his earlier posts, he asked friends to "pray" for him, possibly worried about the risks of travelling on a forged document. According to the friend, Nour Mohammad and Delawar stayed for almost a week in Malaysia before their departure. "We went together to book the flights, and I even had his booking number and was checking his flight status online all the time," he said. "That's why I remember which flight he was taking: I had seen his flight number. "I accompanied them to the airport. It was almost 8pm that we headed to the airport, and we arrived around 9pm to 9.15pm at the airport and we stayed in the car for few minutes and chatted." The friend said he had discovered the pair were planning to travel with stolen passports during the final days of their stay. "The last night before the flight, they both stayed at mine," he said. "His [Nour Mohammad's] friend was dying his beard and hair and was checking the colour to match with the picture of a passport. He was making himself look like the photo in the passport," he told BBC Persian. "When we printed the tickets, I realised that the passports were fake. My friend's passport belonged to Austria and my friend's friend had a passport belonging to Italy … They had three flights to take: from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing, from Beijing to – I think – Amsterdam, and from Amsterdam my friend was heading to Frankfurt and his friend was going to another country." He said his friend's mother had since contacted him and asked him to inform the airline about his forged passport. "His mother told me how he got hold of the fake passport. He had bought the fake passport and wanted to go [to Germany] to seek asylum, and his mother told me his son was travelling with another person. "My last contact with the two was 11.30pm, when they had passed the immigration gate. I wanted to make sure they found their way. They said they were waiting to get on the plane. I have [since the mother's contact] informed the airline, and this is how I've made sure they were aboard the flight." Khalid Abu Bakar, of the Malaysian national police, said information that had emerged surrounding the two Iranian men diminished the likelihood that terrorism played a role in the plane's disappearance. "We believe [Nour Mohammad] is not likely to be a member of any terror group and we believe he was trying to migrate to Germany," he said. Both passports, it has been revealed, were stolen in Thailand. Interpol said they were reported as stolen in the past two years. It was unclear how the Iranians have got their hands on them but it is not the first time Iranian asylum seekers have used forged documents in order to reach Europe. Tickets for the two were reportedly bought in the Thai city of Pattaya, via an Iranian identified by the travel agent Benjaporn Krutnait - owner of Grand Horizon travel - as Mr Ali. There was no suggestion Mr Ali had any links with the forged passports. On Tuesday, Iran's foreign ministry said it was pursuing information about possible Iranians aboard the lost Malaysian plane and was prepared to share information. "We are offering our cooperation to obtain more information," said the ministry's spokeswoman, Marzieh Afkham. | malaysia.airlines.flight.29 |@lemmatized iranian:10 travel:8 flight:11 forged:4 passport:15 link:3 terror:3 malaysia:7 airline:3 interpol:5 release:2 image:2 two:8 men:3 use:4 steal:3 document:3 take:3 disappear:2 forge:2 malaysian:5 airway:1 reveal:2 international:1 police:3 organisation:1 identify:2 pouria:1 nour:7 mohammad:7 seyed:1 mohammed:1 rezar:1 delawar:3 friend:13 hop:1 seek:3 asylum:4 europe:3 accord:2 official:1 information:5 get:4 incline:1 conclude:1 terrorist:1 incident:1 say:14 head:3 ronald:1 noble:1 stolen:3 austrian:1 attempt:1 reach:2 germany:4 reunite:1 mother:6 wait:2 frankfurt:3 apparently:2 italian:1 visa:1 requirement:1 ease:1 recent:1 year:2 national:2 make:4 country:2 popular:1 hub:1 tourist:1 student:1 look:2 way:2 emigrate:1 unnamed:1 meet:2 passenger:1 go:5 airport:4 speak:1 bbc:3 persian:3 service:1 day:4 departure:2 one:2 high:1 school:1 tell:4 monday:1 phone:1 refer:1 first:2 arrive:3 stay:4 three:2 four:1 eventually:1 final:2 destination:1 late:2 post:2 facebook:1 show:1 kuala:2 lumpur:2 feel:1 excited:1 write:1 february:1 early:1 ask:2 pray:1 possibly:1 worry:1 risk:1 stayed:1 almost:2 week:1 together:1 book:1 even:1 booking:1 number:2 check:2 status:1 online:1 time:2 remember:1 see:1 accompany:1 around:1 car:1 minute:1 chat:1 discover:1 pair:1 plan:1 last:2 night:1 mine:1 die:1 beard:1 hair:1 colour:1 match:1 picture:1 like:1 photo:1 print:1 ticket:2 realise:1 fake:3 belong:1 austria:1 belonging:1 italy:1 beijing:2 think:1 amsterdam:2 another:2 since:2 contact:3 inform:2 hold:1 buy:2 want:2 son:1 person:1 pass:1 immigration:1 gate:1 sure:2 find:1 plane:3 aboard:2 khalid:1 abu:1 bakar:1 emerge:1 surround:1 diminish:1 likelihood:1 terrorism:1 play:1 role:1 disappearance:1 believe:2 likely:1 member:1 group:1 try:1 migrate:1 thailand:1 report:1 past:1 unclear:1 hand:1 seeker:1 order:1 reportedly:1 thai:1 city:1 pattaya:1 via:1 agent:1 benjaporn:1 krutnait:1 owner:1 grand:1 horizon:1 mr:2 ali:2 suggestion:1 tuesday:1 iran:1 foreign:1 ministry:2 pursue:1 possible:1 lost:1 prepare:1 share:1 offer:1 cooperation:1 obtain:1 spokeswoman:1 marzieh:1 afkham:1 |@ngramms link_terror:2 malaysia_airline_flight:1 release_image:2 flight_disappear:2 europe_accord:1 malaysian_official:1 germany_seek:1 passenger_malaysia:1 high_school:1 arrive_malaysia:2 kuala_lumpur:2 check_flight:1 friend_passport:2 aboard_flight:1 play_role:1 plane_disappearance:1 member_terror:1 steal_thailand:1 foreign_ministry:1 malaysian_plane:1 share_information:1 |
michelle.obama.130 | Michelle Obama Finds Her Role on the World Stage Barack Obama and his wife flew to London together. They have been staying together at Winfield House, the sprawling American ambassadorial residence in Regent's Park, and are photographed together regularly, boarding and leaving planes and helicopters, walking from cars, meeting with the Queen and assorted world leaders. But they move in completely different worlds. In the President's world, everything is collapsing — markets, housing prices, confidence. In the First Lady's world, everything is soaring — spirits, ballet dancers, ambitions. In Barack's world, expressions of optimism are carefully qualified. In Michelle's world, expressions of pessimism are almost unthinkable. For Barack, the big question is how he is going to save the world from economic and nuclear Armageddon. For Michelle, the big question is who made her darling cardigan with the sequins and the argyle print. (See photos of Michelle Obama's fashion.) "My husband — you know him. He is going to be very jealous of my afternoon," the First Lady said Thursday afternoon during a visit to a girls' school in London. "He is meeting with important people, but it is not as much fun as my afternoon." (See exclusive, behind-the-scenes pictures of the Obamas in Europe.) This was a rhetorical feint of sorts, since Michelle's whole point was that she was meeting with important people too, a group of about 200 proud teenagers from a mind-boggling variety of backgrounds. The Elizabeth Garrett Anderson School has about 1,000 students, all of them girls ages 11 to 17, two-thirds of whom speak English as a second language. Fifty-five languages are spoken at the school. Ninety percent of the students are ethnic minorities, and no single ethnic group makes up more than 21% of the student body. As a group, they treated Obama as if she were an American Queen, a personification of what they can only dream of becoming in a country where no minority has risen nearly as high as the Obamas. "I am just very touched," Michelle told the girls, choking up with emotion as she spoke. "All of you are jewels." In the moment, it did not seem at all like an overstatement. For the better part of an hour, the girls had been performing for the First Lady, presenting a remarkable array of talent — for public speaking, for modern dance, for Shakespeare, for belting out ballads with names like "I'm Going All the Way." It was hard not to be inspired by the scene, but then that's what seems to happen around Michelle Obama these days. On Wednesday, the First Lady toured a cancer ward with Sarah Brown, the British Prime Minister's wife, finding peace amid the pain. After a makeup session with two female patients, she had tea. "It's an oasis," she said. "It's a quiet place that makes people feel whole." Hours later, she met with the Queen of England, appearing to breach rigid ancient protocol with the most human gesture, reciprocating Elizabeth II's light touch by gently draping her arm across the back of the Queen. (Read "The Queen and Mrs. Obama: A Breach in Protocol.") Then Thursday morning she was off to the Royal Opera, dressed in a sequined, patchwork cardigan, the kind of goofy outfit that in another context could get a teenage daughter eye rolls from her baffled parents. While world leaders tried to come up with a plan to relieve the record unemployment around the globe, Michelle Obama enjoyed the sinuous beauty of ballet. At the end, Brown tried to connect the two, delight and despair — an awkward task in such troubled days. "In this difficult time, with the difficult summit taking place down the road, you remind us all about the part that culture plays in keeping us all alive," she told the opera-house performers. At that very moment, Barack Obama was across town in plenary-session meetings with other national leaders at the G-20, discussing regulations, stimulus and funding for emerging markets that they hope will stem the enormous amounts of human suffering the world will endure over the coming months. The President had already met the day before with the Russians to discuss preventing nuclear apocalypse, with the Chinese to discuss the genocide in Sudan and with the South Koreans to discuss the pending missile launch by North Korea. Barack's and Michelle's experiences may seem like night and day, but there are similarities as well. Like the President, the First Lady has an ability to exude a calm confidence amid chaos. As she mingled with 12 other spouses of G-20 heads of state at the opera house Thursday, she looked at times reserved if not a bit shy. But it did not appear to be a shyness born of insecurity as much as her own nature. She was not trying too hard to impress anyone. And later in the day, when Michelle Obama finished speaking at the school, she spent time hugging each of the 24 girls who had joined her onstage after singing in a choir. Some, she hugged more than once. Then she bent down, kneeling on the lip of the stage, to hug the girls in the audience, sending a sudden shock through her Secret Service detail. The embraces did not seem awkward or forced; Michelle was simply celebrating the young talent around her and her newfound ability to inspire others. This is her new role, it seems, a balance to her husband's grim and sober task. "Nothing in my life's path would have predicted that I would be standing here," she told the girls. "I am an example of what is possible when girls, from the very beginning of their lives, are loved and nurtured by the people around them." And as she concluded, she switched to the first-person plural, suddenly speaking for more than just herself. "We are counting on every single one of you to be the best that you can be," she told the young women, many wearing Muslim headscarves, all sitting in rapt attention. "We know you can do it. We love you." | michelle.obama.130 |@lemmatized michelle:11 obama:9 find:2 role:2 world:10 stage:2 barack:5 wife:2 fly:1 london:2 together:3 stay:1 winfield:1 house:3 sprawling:1 american:2 ambassadorial:1 residence:1 regent:1 park:1 photograph:1 regularly:1 board:1 leave:1 plane:1 helicopter:1 walk:1 car:1 meet:5 queen:5 assorted:1 leader:3 move:1 completely:1 different:1 president:3 everything:2 collapse:1 market:2 housing:1 price:1 confidence:2 first:6 lady:5 soar:1 spirit:1 ballet:2 dancer:1 ambition:1 expression:2 optimism:1 carefully:1 qualify:1 pessimism:1 almost:1 unthinkable:1 big:2 question:2 go:3 save:1 economic:1 nuclear:2 armageddon:1 make:3 darling:1 cardigan:2 sequin:1 argyle:1 print:1 see:2 photo:1 fashion:1 husband:2 know:2 jealous:1 afternoon:3 say:2 thursday:3 visit:1 girl:8 school:4 important:2 people:4 much:2 fun:1 exclusive:1 behind:1 scene:2 picture:1 obamas:2 europe:1 rhetorical:1 feint:1 sort:1 since:1 whole:2 point:1 group:3 proud:1 teenager:1 mind:1 boggle:1 variety:1 background:1 elizabeth:2 garrett:1 anderson:1 student:3 age:1 two:3 third:1 speak:4 english:1 second:1 language:2 fifty:1 five:1 ninety:1 percent:1 ethnic:2 minority:2 single:2 body:1 treat:1 personification:1 dream:1 become:1 country:1 rise:1 nearly:1 high:1 touched:1 tell:4 choke:1 emotion:1 jewels:1 moment:2 seem:5 like:4 overstatement:1 good:1 part:2 hour:2 perform:1 present:1 remarkable:1 array:1 talent:2 public:1 speaking:2 modern:1 dance:1 shakespeare:1 belt:1 ballad:1 name:1 way:1 hard:2 inspire:2 happen:1 around:4 day:5 wednesday:1 tour:1 cancer:1 ward:1 sarah:1 brown:2 british:1 prime:1 minister:1 peace:1 amid:2 pain:1 makeup:1 session:2 female:1 patient:1 tea:1 oasis:1 quiet:1 place:2 feel:1 later:2 england:1 appear:2 breach:2 rigid:1 ancient:1 protocol:2 human:2 gesture:1 reciprocate:1 ii:1 light:1 touch:1 gently:1 drape:1 arm:1 across:2 back:1 read:1 mr:1 morning:1 royal:1 opera:3 dress:1 sequined:1 patchwork:1 kind:1 goofy:1 outfit:1 another:1 context:1 could:1 get:1 teenage:1 daughter:1 eye:1 roll:1 baffled:1 parent:1 try:3 come:1 plan:1 relieve:1 record:1 unemployment:1 globe:1 enjoy:1 sinuous:1 beauty:1 end:1 connect:1 delight:1 despair:1 awkward:2 task:2 troubled:1 difficult:2 time:3 summit:1 take:1 road:1 remind:1 u:2 culture:1 play:1 keep:1 alive:1 performer:1 town:1 plenary:1 meeting:1 national:1 g:2 discuss:4 regulation:1 stimulus:1 funding:1 emerge:1 hope:1 stem:1 enormous:1 amount:1 suffer:1 endure:1 coming:1 month:1 already:1 russian:1 prevent:1 apocalypse:1 chinese:1 genocide:1 sudan:1 south:1 korean:1 pending:1 missile:1 launch:1 north:1 korea:1 experience:1 may:1 night:1 similarity:1 well:1 ability:2 exude:1 calm:1 chaos:1 mingle:1 spouse:1 head:1 state:1 look:1 reserve:1 bit:1 shy:1 shyness:1 born:1 insecurity:1 nature:1 impress:1 anyone:1 finish:1 spend:1 hug:3 join:1 onstage:1 sing:1 choir:1 bend:1 kneel:1 lip:1 audience:1 send:1 sudden:1 shock:1 secret:1 service:1 detail:1 embrace:1 force:1 simply:1 celebrate:1 young:2 newfound:1 others:1 new:1 balance:1 grim:1 sober:1 nothing:1 life:2 path:1 would:2 predict:1 stand:1 example:1 possible:1 begin:1 love:2 nurture:1 conclude:1 switch:1 person:1 plural:1 suddenly:1 count:1 every:1 one:1 best:1 woman:1 many:1 wear:1 muslim:1 headscarf:1 sit:1 rapt:1 attention:1 |@ngramms michelle_obama:5 barack_obama:2 world_leader:2 barack_world:1 big_question:2 thursday_afternoon:1 important_people:2 school_student:1 prime_minister:1 place_make:1 mr_obama:1 day_difficult:1 meeting_national:1 emerge_market:1 meet_day:1 barack_michelle:1 spend_time:1 young_woman:1 |
tohoku.earthquake.tsunami.14 | Tsunami, earthquake, nuclear crisis – now Japan faces power cuts Prime minister warns of biggest crisis since 1945 with rolling cuts aimed at averting total blackout Japan is facing its greatest crisis since the second world war, its prime minister, Naoto Kan, warned as the country struggled for a third day to avert a nuclear disaster following the massive earthquake and tsunami. Police warn that the death toll could exceed 10,000 in Miyagi prefecture alone, and a UN agency reported that more than 1,600 people were confirmed dead. Most are thought to have drowned. "The earthquake, tsunami and the nuclear incident have been the biggest crisis Japan has encountered in the 65 years since the end of the second world war," Kan told news media. "We're under scrutiny on whether we, the Japanese people, can overcome this crisis." The extent of this challenge was underscored by the news that the capital of the world's third largest economy will see rolling three-hour power cuts from Monday. Officials have ordered the measure because nuclear plant closures have drastically reduced the electricity supply. They warn that the blackouts could last for weeks. "We have to avoid at all costs a sudden power shortage whose scale could have devastating consequences for the economy and people's lives," Kan said. Friday's 9.0 magnitude earthquake, upgraded from 8.9, is the worst in Japan's recorded history and the fifth strongest worldwide in the past century. It caused a tsunami 10 metres high in some places. As aftershocks continued to shake the coast, the Foreign Office urged Britons to avoid all non-essential travel to Tokyo and the north-east of Japan, while the US state department recommended that Americans stay away from Japan. The Japanese meteorological agency warned that there was a 70% possibility of a magnitude 7 or greater tremor during the next three days. It lifted the tsunami warning, but cautioned that aftershocks could cause further waves. The agency also warned that a volcano in the south was erupting again after a fortnight without noticeable activity. Ash and rock spewed from the crater of Shinmoedake on Kyushu island, 950 miles from the epicentre of Friday's tremor. There were no reports of injuries or damage. Tokyo has doubled the number of troops in its rescue and relief team, but damage to roads and bridges has hampered efforts. "Rescue and relief operations are being hampered by continuous aftershocks, tsunami alerts and fires. Many areas along the north-east coast remain isolated and unreachable," the UN Office for the Co-ordination of Humanitarian Affairs said in a statement. It reported that at least 1,600 people were known to have died and 10,000 were missing. Almost 600,000 have been displaced, or evacuated, because of the earthquake and tsunami or radiation fears, it added. Etsuko Oyama, who was rescued by a neighbour after the wave swept her 400 metres from her home, struggled to hold back tears as she spoke to NHK's news channel, the Japanese public broadcaster. "I grabbed my daughter's hand but I lost my grip when I was swept away by the debris and water," she said. "I managed to survive but my daughter was washed away … I hope she is still alive somewhere." Japanese troops rescued a 60-year-old man who was swept 10 miles out to sea on the roof of his home. But Hiromitsu Shinkawa said his wife had been washed away when the tsunami hit as they returned home to gather possessions after the quake. While there were welcome moments of celebration as survivors were reunited, any good news was generally alloyed by grief. With phone services still down in many areas, many survivors made their way to civic centres to check boards with names of others known to have survived and those who had died. The Kyodo news agency reported that more than 20,000 buildings nationwide were either destroyed or badly damaged. Some 2.6 million households were without power and 1.4 million without drinking water, said Japan's ministry of health, labour and welfare, although electricity was restored to some parts of Sendai city. Others in the area reported food shortages. Survivors huddled in public shelters for another night in near-freezing temperatures. In addition to the central government's relief efforts, cities and private businesses have sent help. The deputy mayor of Tokyo said the city was dispatching 384,000 blankets and 9,000 portable toilets, while Nissin, an instant noodle manufacturer, said it would send a million packets and "kitchen cars" equipped with stoves and water. International relief and rescue teams from more than a dozen countries, including China, the US and the UK, are arriving to help Japanese troops. Almost 70 countries have offered donations, such as India's consignment of blankets and self-contained field hospitals from Australia. Many of the donors, including Pakistan and Sri Lanka, have been scarred by earthquakes or tsunamis in recent years. Kandahar in southern Afghanistan also pledged cash. "I know $50,000 [£31,000] is not a lot of money for a country like Japan, but it is a show of appreciation from the Kandahar people," Ghulam Haidar Hamidi, the mayor, told Reuters. Yukio Edano, Japan's chief cabinet secretary, has said the government would use its contingency funds of some 200bn yen (£1.5bn) to pay for the relief effort. But there is already talk of a possible temporary tax increase to fund relief work. Japan, overtaken by China last year as the world's second largest economy, will require tens of billions of dollars for reconstruction. The 1995 Kobe earthquake is said to have been the most expensive natural disaster in history, causing more than £1bn damage. The country will also need to count the cost of industrial losses, with much of the north-east at a standstill. | tohoku.earthquake.tsunami.14 |@lemmatized tsunami:9 earthquake:7 nuclear:4 crisis:5 japan:10 face:2 power:4 cut:3 prime:2 minister:2 warns:1 big:2 since:3 roll:1 aim:1 avert:2 total:1 blackout:2 great:2 second:3 world:4 war:2 naoto:1 kan:3 warn:5 country:5 struggle:2 third:2 day:2 disaster:2 follow:1 massive:1 police:1 death:1 toll:1 could:4 exceed:1 miyagi:1 prefecture:1 alone:1 un:2 agency:4 report:5 people:5 confirm:1 dead:1 think:1 drown:1 incident:1 encounter:1 year:4 end:1 tell:2 news:5 medium:1 scrutiny:1 whether:1 japanese:5 overcome:1 extent:1 challenge:1 underscore:1 capital:1 large:2 economy:3 see:1 rolling:1 three:2 hour:1 monday:1 official:1 order:1 measure:1 plant:1 closure:1 drastically:1 reduce:1 electricity:2 supply:1 last:2 week:1 avoid:2 cost:2 sudden:1 shortage:2 whose:1 scale:1 devastate:1 consequence:1 life:1 say:9 friday:2 magnitude:2 upgrade:1 bad:1 record:1 history:2 fifth:1 strong:1 worldwide:1 past:1 century:1 cause:3 metre:2 high:1 place:1 aftershock:3 continue:1 shake:1 coast:2 foreign:1 office:2 urge:1 briton:1 non:1 essential:1 travel:1 tokyo:3 north:3 east:3 u:2 state:1 department:1 recommend:1 american:1 stay:1 away:4 meteorological:1 possibility:1 tremor:2 next:1 lift:1 warning:1 caution:1 wave:2 also:3 volcano:1 south:1 erupt:1 fortnight:1 without:3 noticeable:1 activity:1 ash:1 rock:1 spew:1 crater:1 shinmoedake:1 kyushu:1 island:1 mile:2 epicentre:1 injury:1 damage:4 double:1 number:1 troop:3 rescue:5 relief:6 team:2 road:1 bridge:1 hamper:2 effort:3 operation:1 continuous:1 alert:1 fire:1 many:4 area:3 along:1 remain:1 isolated:1 unreachable:1 co:1 ordination:1 humanitarian:1 affair:1 statement:1 least:1 know:3 die:2 miss:1 almost:2 displace:1 evacuate:1 radiation:1 fear:1 add:1 etsuko:1 oyama:1 neighbour:1 sweep:2 home:3 hold:1 back:1 tear:1 speak:1 nhk:1 channel:1 public:2 broadcaster:1 grab:1 daughter:2 hand:1 lose:1 grip:1 debris:1 water:3 manage:1 survive:2 wash:2 hope:1 still:2 alive:1 somewhere:1 old:1 man:1 swept:1 sea:1 roof:1 hiromitsu:1 shinkawa:1 wife:1 hit:1 return:1 gather:1 possession:1 quake:1 welcome:1 moment:1 celebration:1 survivor:3 reunite:1 good:1 generally:1 alloy:1 grief:1 phone:1 service:1 make:1 way:1 civic:1 centre:1 check:1 board:1 name:1 others:2 kyodo:1 building:1 nationwide:1 either:1 destroy:1 badly:1 million:3 household:1 drinking:1 ministry:1 health:1 labour:1 welfare:1 although:1 restore:1 part:1 sendai:1 city:3 food:1 huddle:1 shelter:1 another:1 night:1 near:1 freezing:1 temperature:1 addition:1 central:1 government:2 private:1 business:1 send:2 help:2 deputy:1 mayor:2 dispatch:1 blanket:2 portable:1 toilet:1 nissin:1 instant:1 noodle:1 manufacturer:1 would:2 packet:1 kitchen:1 car:1 equip:1 stove:1 international:1 dozen:1 include:2 china:2 uk:1 arrive:1 offer:1 donation:1 india:1 consignment:1 self:1 contain:1 field:1 hospital:1 australia:1 donor:1 pakistan:1 sri:1 lanka:1 scar:1 recent:1 kandahar:2 southern:1 afghanistan:1 pledge:1 cash:1 lot:1 money:1 like:1 show:1 appreciation:1 ghulam:1 haidar:1 hamidi:1 reuters:1 yukio:1 edano:1 chief:1 cabinet:1 secretary:1 use:1 contingency:1 fund:2 yen:1 pay:1 already:1 talk:1 possible:1 temporary:1 tax:1 increase:1 work:1 overtake:1 require:1 ten:1 billion:1 dollar:1 reconstruction:1 kobe:1 expensive:1 natural:1 need:1 count:1 industrial:1 loss:1 much:1 standstill:1 |@ngramms crisis_japan:2 power_cut:2 prime_minister:2 big_crisis:1 japan_face:1 world_war:2 earthquake_tsunami:4 police_warn:1 agency_report:1 confirm_dead:1 large_economy:2 nuclear_plant:1 people_life:1 magnitude_earthquake:1 record_history:1 metre_high:1 north_east:3 state_department:1 double_number:1 tsunami_alert:1 tear_speak:1 tsunami_hit:1 ministry_health:1 deputy_mayor:1 country_include:1 lot_money:1 tax_increase:1 damage_country:1 |
michelle.obama.111 | Michelle Obama speaks to gay Democrats NEW YORK – Michelle Obama won a standing ovation on Thursday when she paid a campaign visit to gay and lesbian Democratic activists to promote her husband Barack Obama's presidential quest. Obama, appearing at a dinner meeting of the Gay & Lesbian Leadership Council of the Democratic National Committee, cited her husband's efforts to fight discrimination and promote equal rights for lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transgendered people. She said he supported a complete repeal of the federal Defense of Marriage Act, or DOMA, which only recognizes marriages between men and women and upholds states' rights not to honor same-sex marriages performed elsewhere. He also opposes a "don't ask, don't tell" policy toward gays in the U.S. military and was against a constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage, she added. He supports full family and adoption rights for gay and lesbian couples and believes the federal government should not stand in the way of states that opt for domestic partnerships, civil unions or civil marriage, she said. The Illinois senator opposes same-sex marriage. "Barack believes that we must fight for the world as it should be, a world where together we work to reverse discriminatory laws like DOMA and 'don't ask, don't tell,'" she said. "The world as it is should be one that rejects discrimination of all kinds." Her husband also has called for a renewed effort to fight HIV and AIDS and has said the African-American community should overcome homophobia, she said. "Nothing we have to do over the next four or eight years is going to be easy. There will be powerful forces who believe that things should stay just as they are, that everything is fine, and that's where you all come in," she said. "Your voices of truth and hope and of possibility have got to drown out the skeptics and the cynics," she said. | michelle.obama.111 |@lemmatized michelle:2 obama:4 speak:1 gay:7 democrats:1 new:1 york:1 win:1 stand:2 ovation:1 thursday:1 pay:1 campaign:1 visit:1 lesbian:4 democratic:2 activist:1 promote:2 husband:3 barack:2 presidential:1 quest:1 appear:1 dinner:1 meeting:1 leadership:1 council:1 national:1 committee:1 cite:1 effort:2 fight:3 discrimination:2 equal:1 right:3 bisexual:1 transgendered:1 people:1 say:7 support:2 complete:1 repeal:1 federal:2 defense:1 marriage:6 act:1 doma:2 recognize:1 men:1 woman:1 upholds:1 state:2 honor:1 sex:2 perform:1 elsewhere:1 also:2 oppose:1 ask:2 tell:2 policy:1 toward:1 u:1 military:1 constitutional:1 amendment:1 ban:1 add:1 full:1 family:1 adoption:1 couple:1 believe:3 government:1 way:1 opt:1 domestic:1 partnership:1 civil:2 union:1 illinois:1 senator:1 opposes:1 must:1 world:3 together:1 work:1 reverse:1 discriminatory:1 law:1 like:1 one:1 reject:1 kind:1 call:1 renew:1 hiv:1 aid:1 african:1 american:1 community:1 overcome:1 homophobia:1 nothing:1 next:1 four:1 eight:1 year:1 go:1 easy:1 powerful:1 force:1 thing:1 stay:1 everything:1 fine:1 come:1 voice:1 truth:1 hope:1 possibility:1 get:1 drown:1 skeptic:1 cynic:1 |@ngramms michelle_obama:2 barack_obama:1 democratic_national:1 effort_fight:2 men_woman:1 federal_government:1 illinois_senator:1 kind_husband:1 african_american:1 |
samsung.galaxy.s5.41 | Samsung Galaxy S5 Hits 10 Million Sales Mark: Smartphone Beats Galaxy S4 Initial Sales Record By Two Days The Samsung Galaxy S5 has entered the market on a strong point as reports out of Korea indicate the smartphone has shipped more than 10 million units in 25 days. At this point, the Galaxy S5 can be considered Samsung's bestselling smartphone to date, beating out its predecessor the Samsung Galaxy S4, which shipped 10 million units in 27 days. Notably, these figures are not indicative of how many consumers have purchased the Galaxy S5 but rather how many handsets have been shipped to for sale. However, it can be deduced that the amount of Galaxy S5 units that have shipped is correlated with demand for the device. According to reports in early April, the Samsung Galaxy S5 sold better on its launch day than the Galaxy S4 at several retailers. Samsung Experience stores in the U.K. saw long lines of customers anxious to get their hands on the 2014 flagship. In Paris, the Samsung Experience store sold its entire 800-unit inventory. Additionally, some mobile networks in South Korea released the Galaxy S5 prior to the April 11 global launch date, and reported impressive sales. According to Yonhap News, carrier SK Telecom garnered average daily sales of 7,000 units in its first week of selling the Galaxy S5, which it made available to customers on March 27. Each Samsung Galaxy device has sold better than its predecessor. Before the Galaxy S4, the Samsung Galaxy S3 shipped 10 million units in 50 days, while it took the Samsung Galaxy S2 five months and the original Samsung Galaxy S seven months to move that much inventory. As sales go on, the Galaxy S5 probably will continue be compared to previous Galaxy devices. After its strong release, the Galaxy S4 went on to sell 20 million handsets in two months, 30 million handsets in four months and 40 million handsets in five months. The Galaxy S3 has sold approximately 60 million handsets since its 2012 release. Since these are only preliminary sales figures for the Samsung Galaxy S5 there is no definitive proof that the Galaxy S5 has already outsold the Galaxy S4. According to the Chitika online advertising network, the Samsung Galaxy S5 accounted for 4.3 percent of all North American smartphone traffic in the 25 days since the device's release. In comparison, the Galaxy S4 accounted for 2 percent of North American smartphone traffic in the same time. BGR notes that these figures indicate that more Galaxy S5 handsets have been online in the past 25 days, not that more Galaxy S5 handsets were purchased. Galaxy S5 sales figures will have to be studied over the coming months to determine the true impact of the device. | samsung.galaxy.s5.41 |@lemmatized samsung:13 galaxy:28 hit:1 million:8 sale:8 mark:1 smartphone:5 beat:2 initial:1 record:1 two:2 day:7 enter:1 market:1 strong:2 point:2 report:3 korea:2 indicate:2 ship:5 unit:6 consider:1 bestselling:1 date:2 predecessor:2 notably:1 figure:4 indicative:1 many:2 consumer:1 purchase:2 rather:1 handset:7 however:1 deduce:1 amount:1 correlate:1 demand:1 device:5 accord:3 early:1 april:2 sell:6 well:1 launch:2 several:1 retailer:1 experience:2 store:2 u:1 k:1 saw:1 long:1 line:1 customer:2 anxious:1 get:1 hand:1 flagship:1 paris:1 entire:1 inventory:2 additionally:1 mobile:1 network:2 south:1 release:4 prior:1 global:1 impressive:1 yonhap:1 news:1 carrier:1 sk:1 telecom:1 garner:1 average:1 daily:1 first:1 week:1 make:1 available:1 march:1 good:1 take:1 five:2 month:6 original:1 seven:1 move:1 much:1 go:2 probably:1 continue:1 compare:1 previous:1 four:1 approximately:1 since:3 preliminary:1 definitive:1 proof:1 already:1 outsell:1 chitika:1 online:2 advertising:1 account:2 percent:2 north:2 american:2 traffic:2 comparison:1 time:1 bgr:1 note:1 past:1 study:1 coming:1 determine:1 true:1 impact:1 |@ngramms samsung_galaxy:10 million_sale:1 beat_galaxy:1 enter_market:1 report_korea:1 million_unit:3 purchase_galaxy:2 galaxy_unit:1 demand_device:1 accord_report:1 experience_store:2 long_line:1 south_korea:1 release_galaxy:2 date_report:1 device_sell:1 compare_previous:1 galaxy_device:1 sell_million:1 million_handset:3 galaxy_sell:1 sale_figure:2 account_percent:2 north_american:2 smartphone_traffic:2 galaxy_handset:2 past_day:1 |
samsung.galaxy.s5.6 | Samsung Galaxy S5 smartphone fingerprint sensor hacked Researchers show 'spoofing' of fingerprint system, warning lack of 'lock-out' security makes flagship less safe than iPhone (updated) The fingerprint security on Samsung's flagship Galaxy S5 phone has been hacked by a German team, who warn that its implementation is less secure - and its consequences potentially much worse - than on Apple's iPhone 5S. Security Research Labs, based in Berlin, posted a YouTube clip (included below) showing how they had used a rubber mould incorporating a high-resolution image of a fingerprint lifted from a smartphone screen. The same print and mould that was used to spoof the iPhone 5S's fingerprint sensor was used to fool Samsung's. But the researchers pointed to what they said are "additional concerns" about Samsung's security system compared with the iPhone's, because a would-be hacker can make an unlimited number of attempts at spoofing the fingerprint, and because it can be linked to payment systems such as PayPal - which could then be used to wire money to the attacker's account. "Samsung's implementation of fingerprint authentication leaves much to be desired," the researcher from SRE said. "They do not seem to have learned from what what others have done… while biometrics will always carry with them the trade of security for convenience, it is the manufactures responsibility to implement them in a way that does not put their users crucial data and payment accounts at risk." The group specifically highlights the absence of a "lock out" function compared with the iPhone 5S, the only other mass-market phone offering fingerprint authentication. Other manufacturers including HTC and Motorola have offered fingerprint unlocking, but with little takeup. Apple's implementation, called Touch ID, locks out the user after three attempts, if the phone has been turned off, if more than 48 hours have passed since the phone was unlocked, or to change or remove the Touch ID setting. Once locked out, the user has to enter a password or code to access the phone. Apple also only links its Touch ID system to unlocking the phone or its App Store, though once a phone is unlocked any app is accessible. But Samsung offers fingerprint authentication to unlock the phone, for Paypal payments, and to secure folders on the phone. "This gives a would-be attacked an even greater incentive to learn the simple skill of spoofing fingerprints," said SRE's researcher, pointing out that they could use the Paypal implementation to send large sums of money while using the fake fingerprint as verification. The threat to both Samsung and Apple users seems to be largely theoretical, however. It requires a high-quality fingerprint lifted from clean glass, and scanned at high resolution, and then printed on to latex rubber. Since the iPhone 5S went on sale in September 2013, there have been no recorded cases of where the fingerprint has been spoofed to hack into the phone beyond laboratory tests such as those by SRE. In a statement, Samsung said: "This is a scenario that is widely regarded in the industry as posing no critical risk for general consumers. This artificial experiment requires a rare combination of highly specialised equipment, materials and conditions. Samsung takes security matters very seriously. We are continuously taking measures to vigorously enhance the security of the device." Paypal said in a statement to Android Community that "While we take the findings from Security Research Labs very seriously, we are still confident that fingerprint authentication offers an easier and more secure way to pay on mobile devices than passwords or credit cards." The Paypal integration adds a cryptographic "key", not the actual password, it said: "We can simply deactivate the key from a lost or stolen device, and you can create a new one." In the event of fraud, the company said, "you are covered by our purchase protection policy." | samsung.galaxy.s5.6 |@lemmatized samsung:9 galaxy:2 smartphone:2 fingerprint:15 sensor:2 hack:3 researcher:4 show:2 spoof:5 system:4 warn:2 lack:1 lock:4 security:8 make:2 flagship:2 less:2 safe:1 iphone:6 update:1 phone:10 german:1 team:1 implementation:4 secure:3 consequence:1 potentially:1 much:2 bad:1 apple:4 research:2 lab:1 base:1 berlin:1 post:1 youtube:1 clip:1 include:2 use:6 rubber:2 mould:2 incorporate:1 high:3 resolution:2 image:1 lift:2 screen:1 print:2 fool:1 point:2 say:7 additional:1 concern:1 compare:2 would:2 hacker:1 unlimited:1 number:1 attempt:2 link:2 payment:3 paypal:5 could:2 wire:1 money:2 attacker:1 account:2 authentication:4 leave:1 desire:1 sre:3 seem:2 learn:2 others:1 biometrics:1 always:1 carry:1 trade:1 convenience:1 manufacture:1 responsibility:1 implement:1 way:2 put:1 user:4 crucial:1 data:1 risk:2 group:1 specifically:1 highlight:1 absence:1 function:1 mass:1 market:1 offer:4 manufacturer:1 htc:1 motorola:1 unlocking:1 little:1 takeup:1 call:1 touch:3 id:3 three:1 turn:1 hour:1 pass:1 since:2 unlocked:2 change:1 remove:1 set:1 enter:1 password:3 code:1 access:1 also:1 unlock:2 app:2 store:1 though:1 accessible:1 folder:1 give:1 attack:1 even:1 great:1 incentive:1 simple:1 skill:1 send:1 large:1 sum:1 fake:1 verification:1 threat:1 largely:1 theoretical:1 however:1 require:2 quality:1 clean:1 glass:1 scan:1 latex:1 go:1 sale:1 september:1 recorded:1 case:1 beyond:1 laboratory:1 test:1 statement:2 scenario:1 widely:1 regard:1 industry:1 pose:1 critical:1 general:1 consumer:1 artificial:1 experiment:1 rare:1 combination:1 highly:1 specialised:1 equipment:1 material:1 condition:1 take:3 matter:1 seriously:2 continuously:1 measure:1 vigorously:1 enhance:1 device:3 android:1 community:1 finding:1 labs:1 still:1 confident:1 easy:1 pay:1 mobile:1 credit:1 card:1 integration:1 add:1 cryptographic:1 key:2 actual:1 simply:1 deactivate:1 lose:1 steal:1 create:1 new:1 one:1 event:1 fraud:1 company:1 cover:1 purchase:1 protection:1 policy:1 |@ngramms samsung_galaxy:1 fingerprint_sensor:2 fingerprint_security:1 samsung_flagship:1 galaxy_phone:1 apple_iphone:1 security_research:2 high_resolution:2 screen_print:1 compare_iphone:2 market_phone:1 offer_fingerprint:2 attempt_phone:1 unlock_phone:2 app_store:1 samsung_offer:1 phone_give:1 samsung_apple:1 high_quality:1 easy_secure:1 mobile_device:1 credit_card:1 |
michelle.obama.83 | Michelle Obama's High Note Finally, some good reviews. A sampling of the instant reactions to Michelle Obama's speech (and Barack Obama's appearance on a giant TV screen) in blogland: -The American Prospect's Ezra Klein loved Mrs. Obama's "beautifully delivered, and smartly crafted, speech." He writes, "She's also coming off as wholesome and, frankly, familiar." But he's less sure about "Giant Screen Obama": "I can't decide if the faux-intimacy of Daddy tele-parenting in the middle of the convention was a bit too precious," Klein writes, later adding, "On the other hand, I'm a cynical, coastal elite type and could just be insufficiently appreciative of camp." -Kathryn Jean Lopez of National Review did, too: "Michelle and the girls were a homerun for Dems tonight," she writes at The Corner. "It's no small thing when both sides can talk American exceptionalism. It's a start." -The New Republic's Katherine Marsh probably didn't, however. "I miss the old Michelle, and I think a lot of other women do, too," Marsh writes. "Not the scripted Stepford wife fist-bumping Elisabeth Hasselbeck, but the sassy better half who reminded us that while Barack was the answer, he was also stinky in the morning and forgot to put the butter away. She both affirmed his promise and humanized him." Marsh continues: You could actually imagine their relationship was a real thing–not a symbiotic power alliance, but a union of two different people with different goals who just happen, when they're not bickering about the butter, to find each other pretty cool. This Michelle was an asset to the campaign, a highly accomplished woman outside the sphere of motherhood as well as in it, a necessary bit of fire to Obama's dispassionate ice, and valuable proof that Obama isn't the type of guy inclined to surround himself–like our current president–with yes-men or -women. If Joe Biden can be forgiven his sins and welcomed onto the stage beside the African American nominee he once called clean and articulate, then surely Michelle Obama can finally be freed from the clutches of US Weekly and Joy Behar and allowed to give a speech that truly reflects who she is. -Neither did The New Republic's Jason Zengerle. "Michelle Obama introduced herself as a sister, a wife, a mother, and a daughter–which are all incredibly important identities," he writes at The Plank, his magazine's staff blog. "But those identities don't reveal her full person–the Princeton and Harvard Law grad, the corporate attorney, the hospital executive–which were parts of her life that she barely mentioned." Zengerle later adds, "It almost makes you long for the days when politicians' wives were seen but not heard. After all, if they're not permitted to really say anything, what's the point of having them speak?" -Andrew Sullivan, however, is no longer cranky: "One of the best, most moving, intimate, rousing, humble, and beautiful speeches I've heard from a convention platform. Maybe she should be running for president." | michelle.obama.83 |@lemmatized michelle:7 obama:9 high:1 note:1 finally:2 good:2 review:2 sampling:1 instant:1 reaction:1 speech:4 barack:2 appearance:1 giant:2 tv:1 screen:2 blogland:1 american:3 prospect:1 ezra:1 klein:2 love:1 mrs:1 beautifully:1 deliver:1 smartly:1 craft:1 write:4 also:2 come:1 wholesome:1 frankly:1 familiar:1 less:1 sure:1 decide:1 faux:1 intimacy:1 daddy:1 tele:1 parenting:1 middle:1 convention:2 bit:2 precious:1 later:2 add:2 hand:1 cynical:1 coastal:1 elite:1 type:2 could:2 insufficiently:1 appreciative:1 camp:1 kathryn:1 jean:1 lopez:1 national:1 girl:1 homerun:1 dems:1 tonight:1 corner:1 small:1 thing:2 side:1 talk:1 exceptionalism:1 start:1 new:2 republic:2 katherine:1 marsh:3 probably:1 however:2 miss:1 old:1 think:1 lot:1 woman:3 writes:1 script:1 stepford:1 wife:3 fist:1 bumping:1 elisabeth:1 hasselbeck:1 sassy:1 half:1 remind:1 u:2 answer:1 stinky:1 morning:1 forgot:1 put:1 butter:2 away:1 affirm:1 promise:1 humanize:1 continue:1 actually:1 imagine:1 relationship:1 real:1 symbiotic:1 power:1 alliance:1 union:1 two:1 different:2 people:1 goal:1 happen:1 bicker:1 find:1 pretty:1 cool:1 asset:1 campaign:1 highly:1 accomplished:1 outside:1 sphere:1 motherhood:1 well:1 necessary:1 fire:1 dispassionate:1 ice:1 valuable:1 proof:1 guy:1 incline:1 surround:1 like:1 current:1 president:2 yes:1 men:1 joe:1 biden:1 forgive:1 sin:1 welcome:1 onto:1 stage:1 beside:1 african:1 nominee:1 call:1 clean:1 articulate:1 surely:1 free:1 clutch:1 weekly:1 joy:1 behar:1 allow:1 give:1 truly:1 reflect:1 neither:1 jason:1 zengerle:2 introduce:1 sister:1 mother:1 daughter:1 incredibly:1 important:1 identity:2 plank:1 magazine:1 staff:1 blog:1 reveal:1 full:1 person:1 princeton:1 harvard:1 law:1 grad:1 corporate:1 attorney:1 hospital:1 executive:1 part:1 life:1 barely:1 mention:1 almost:1 make:1 long:1 day:1 politician:1 see:1 heard:2 permit:1 really:1 say:1 anything:1 point:1 speak:1 andrew:1 sullivan:1 longer:1 cranky:1 one:1 best:1 moving:1 intimate:1 rouse:1 humble:1 beautiful:1 platform:1 maybe:1 run:1 |@ngramms michelle_obama:4 barack_obama:1 giant_screen:1 obama_decide:1 national_review:1 small_thing:1 side_talk:1 good_half:1 current_president:1 men_woman:1 african_american:1 wife_mother:1 reveal_full:1 harvard_law:1 hospital_executive:1 run_president:1 |
michelle.obama.118 | Michelle Obama Michelle LaVaughn Robinson Obama In the News: First lady Michelle Obama revealed on Wednesday (February 25, 2009) that the family plans to get a dog after their spring break trip this April. Barack and Michelle Obama promised their daughters a dog after the election. Obama says her daughters have already been going back and forth on possible names. "Oh, the names are really bad," she said. "I don't even want to mention it...Frank was one of them. Frank! Moose was another one of them. Moose. I'm like, no, come on, let's work with the names a little bit." The Obamas don't have a particular dog in mind yet, but the first lady revealed that the family wants to rescue a Portuguese water dog. "Temperamentally, they're supposed to be pretty good," the first lady said. "From the size perspective, they're sort of middle of the road—it's not small, but it's not a huge dog. And the folks that we know who own them have raved about them. So that's where we're leaning." Biography: Lawyer, Chicago city administrator, community outreach worker and wife of President Barack Obama. Michelle LaVaughn Robinson Obama was born January 17, 1964, in Chicago, Illinois. Michelle was raised on Chicago's South Side in a one-bedroom apartment. Her father, Frasier Robinson, was a city pump operator and a Democratic precinct captain. Her mother, Marian, was a Spiegel's secretary who later stayed home to raise Michelle and her older brother, Craig. The family has been described as a close-knit one that shared family meals, read and played games together. Craig and Michelle, 16 months apart in age, were often mistaken for twins. The siblings also shared close quarters; they slept in the living room with a makeshift sheet serving as their room divider. Both children were raised with an emphasis on education. The brother and sister learned to read at home by the age of four, and both skipped second grade. By sixth grade, Michelle was attending gifted classes, where she learned French and took accelerated courses. She then went on to attend the city's first magnet high school for gifted children where, among other activities, she served as the student government treasurer. "Without being immodest, we were always smart, we were always driven and we were always encouraged to do the best you can do, not just what's necessary," her brother Craig, has said. "And when it came to going to schools, we all wanted to go to the best schools we could." Michelle graduated in 1981 from Whitney M. Young Magnet High School in Chicago's West Loop as class salutatorian. After high school, she followed her brother to Princeton University, graduating cum laude in 1985 with a B.A. in Sociology. She went on to earn a J.D. from Harvard Law School in 1988, where she took part in demonstrations demanding more minority students and professors. Following law school, Michelle worked as an associate in the Chicago branch of the law firm Sidley Austin in the area of marketing and intellectual property. There in 1989, she met her future husband, Barack Obama, a summer intern to whom she was assigned as an adviser. "I went to Harvard and he went to Harvard, and the firm thought, 'Oh, we'll hook these two people up,'" Michelle said. "So, you know, there was a little intrigue, but I must say after about a month, Barack...asked me out, and I thought no way. This is completely tacky." Initially, she refused to date Obama, believing that their work relationship would make the romance improper. Eventually she relented, and the couple soon fell in love. After two years of dating, Barack proposed. "We were at a restaurant having dinner to celebrate the fact that he had finished the bar," Michelle remembers. "Then the waiter came over with the dessert and a tray. And there was the ring. And I was completely shocked." The couple married at Trinity United Church of Christ on October 18, 1992. Michelle soon left her job to launch a career in public service, serving as an assistant to Mayor Daley and then as the assistant commissioner of planning and development for the City of Chicago. In 1993, she became Executive Director for the Chicago office of Public Allies, a non-profit leadership-training program that helped young adults develop skills for future careers in the public sector. Michelle joined the University of Chicago in 1996 as associate dean of student services, developing the University's first community service program. She then worked for the University of Chicago Hospitals beginning in 2002, as executive director of community relations and external affairs. In May 2005, she was appointed vice president of community relations and external affairs at the University of Chicago Medical Center, where she continues to work part-time. She also manages the business diversity program and sits on six boards, including the prestigious Chicago Council on Global Affairs and the University of Chicago Laboratory Schools. Michelle Obama first caught the eye of a national audience at her husband's side when he delivered a high-profile speech at the Democratic National Convention in 2004. Barack Obama was elected to the U.S. Senate from Illinois that November. In 2007, she scaled back her own professional work to attend to family and campaign obligations during Barack's run for the Democratic presidential nomination. Michelle says she's made a "commitment to be away overnight only once a week – to campaign only two days a week and be home by the end of the second day" for their two daughters, Malia (born 1999) and Natasha (2001). It has been reported that the Obama family has no nanny, and that the children are left with their grandmother, Marian, while their parents campaign. "I've never participated at this level in any of his campaigns," Michelle says. "I have usually chosen to just appear when necessary." Since her husband's political role pushed the Obama family into the spotlight, Michelle has been publicly recognized for her steely, no-nonsense campaign style as well as her sense of fashion. In May of 2006, Michelle was featured in Essence magazine as one of "25 of the World's Most Inspiring Women." Then in September 2007, Michelle was listed in 02138 magazine as number 58 in "The Harvard 100," a list of the most influential alumni for the year. She has also made the Vanity Fair best-dressed list two years in a row, as well as People Magazine's 2008 best-dressed list. Michelle Obama became the 44th First Lady of the United States on January 20, 2009. | michelle.obama.118 |@lemmatized michelle:22 obama:14 lavaughn:2 robinson:3 news:1 first:7 lady:4 reveal:2 wednesday:1 february:1 family:7 plan:1 get:1 dog:5 spring:1 break:1 trip:1 april:1 barack:7 promise:1 daughter:3 election:1 say:8 already:1 go:7 back:2 forth:1 possible:1 name:3 oh:2 really:1 bad:1 even:1 want:3 mention:1 frank:2 one:5 moose:2 another:1 like:1 come:3 let:1 work:6 little:2 bit:1 obamas:1 particular:1 mind:1 yet:1 rescue:1 portuguese:1 water:1 temperamentally:1 suppose:1 pretty:1 good:1 size:1 perspective:1 sort:1 middle:1 road:1 small:1 huge:1 folk:1 know:2 rave:1 lean:1 biography:1 lawyer:1 chicago:12 city:4 administrator:1 community:4 outreach:1 worker:1 wife:1 president:2 bear:1 january:2 illinois:2 raise:3 south:1 side:2 bedroom:1 apartment:1 father:1 frasier:1 pump:1 operator:1 democratic:3 precinct:1 captain:1 mother:1 marian:2 spiegel:1 secretary:1 later:1 stay:1 home:3 old:1 brother:4 craig:3 describe:1 close:2 knit:1 share:2 meal:1 read:2 play:1 game:1 together:1 month:2 apart:1 age:2 often:1 mistake:1 twin:1 sibling:1 also:3 quarter:1 sleep:1 living:1 room:2 makeshift:1 sheet:1 serve:3 divider:1 child:3 emphasis:1 education:1 sister:1 learn:2 four:1 skipped:1 second:2 grade:2 sixth:1 attend:3 gifted:2 class:2 french:1 take:2 accelerate:1 course:1 magnet:2 high:4 school:8 among:1 activity:1 student:3 government:1 treasurer:1 without:1 immodest:1 always:3 smart:1 drive:1 encourage:1 best:4 necessary:2 could:1 graduate:2 whitney:1 young:2 west:1 loop:1 salutatorian:1 follow:2 princeton:1 university:6 cum:1 laude:1 b:1 sociology:1 earn:1 j:1 harvard:4 law:3 part:2 demonstration:1 demand:1 minority:1 professor:1 associate:2 branch:1 firm:2 sidley:1 austin:1 area:1 marketing:1 intellectual:1 property:1 meet:1 future:2 husband:3 summer:1 intern:1 assign:1 adviser:1 think:2 hook:1 two:5 people:2 intrigue:1 must:1 ask:1 way:1 completely:2 tacky:1 initially:1 refuse:1 date:1 believe:1 relationship:1 would:1 make:3 romance:1 improper:1 eventually:1 relent:1 couple:2 soon:2 fell:1 love:1 year:3 dating:1 propose:1 restaurant:1 dinner:1 celebrate:1 fact:1 finish:1 bar:1 remembers:1 waiter:1 dessert:1 tray:1 ring:1 shocked:1 marry:1 trinity:1 united:2 church:1 christ:1 october:1 leave:2 job:1 launch:1 career:2 public:3 service:3 assistant:2 mayor:1 daley:1 commissioner:1 planning:1 development:1 become:2 executive:2 director:2 office:1 ally:1 non:1 profit:1 leadership:1 training:1 program:3 help:1 adult:1 develop:2 skill:1 sector:1 join:1 dean:1 hospital:1 begin:1 relation:2 external:2 affair:3 may:2 appoint:1 vice:1 medical:1 center:1 continue:1 time:1 manage:1 business:1 diversity:1 sits:1 six:1 board:1 include:1 prestigious:1 council:1 global:1 laboratory:1 catch:1 eye:1 national:2 audience:1 deliver:1 profile:1 speech:1 convention:1 elect:1 u:1 senate:1 november:1 scale:1 professional:1 campaign:5 obligation:1 run:1 presidential:1 nomination:1 commitment:1 away:1 overnight:1 week:2 day:2 end:1 malia:1 born:1 natasha:1 report:1 nanny:1 grandmother:1 parent:1 never:1 participate:1 level:1 usually:1 choose:1 appear:1 since:1 political:1 role:1 push:1 spotlight:1 publicly:1 recognize:1 steely:1 nonsense:1 style:1 well:2 sense:1 fashion:1 feature:1 essence:1 magazine:3 world:1 inspiring:1 woman:1 september:1 list:4 number:1 influential:1 alumnus:1 vanity:1 fair:1 dress:1 row:1 dressed:1 state:1 |@ngramms michelle_obama:5 robinson_obama:2 pretty_good:1 chicago_city:1 president_barack_obama:1 michelle_raise:1 south_side:1 raise_michelle:1 share_family:1 play_game:1 brother_sister:1 high_school:3 harvard_law:1 law_school:1 michelle_work:1 law_firm:1 barack_obama:2 refuse_date:1 work_relationship:1 leave_job:1 public_service:1 executive_director:2 chicago_office:1 public_ally:1 career_public:1 university_chicago:4 student_service:1 develop_university:1 service_program:1 president_community:1 medical_center:1 continue_work:1 board_include:1 high_profile:1 democratic_national:1 barack_run:1 democratic_presidential:1 daughter_malia:1 obama_family:2 child_leave:1 husband_political:1 michelle_list:1 people_magazine:1 united_state:1 |
michelle.obama.79 | Michelle Obama Stresses Barack's American Values Michelle Obama painted an intimate portrait of her husband, Barack Obama, as a father and family man with faith in the American dream Monday night. Her comments came during a prime-time speech at the Democratic National Convention in Denver aimed at reassuring voters that her husband shares the values of ordinary Americans and is ready to lead the nation. Michelle said that she and Barack believed "that you work hard for what you want in life, that your word is your bond, and you do what you say you're going to do, that you treat people with dignity and respect, even if you don't know them, and even if you don't agree with them." She described her own blue-collar upbringing in Chicago and how hard her parents worked to raise a family. And she emphasized that though her husband had "grown up all the way across the continent," he had a similar life and the same values. She told the cheering delegates that her husband would be "an extraordinary president." "Barack will finally bring the change we need," she said. Dismissing questions about her patriotism, Obama said, "I love this country" — a rebuttal to criticism after remarks earlier this year when she said she felt proud of America for the first time. After the speech, the Obamas' two daughters joined their mother on the podium, and Barack Obama appeared via satellite from Kansas City. "How about Michelle Obama?" he asked the crowd. "Now you know why I asked her out so many times, even though she said no. You want a persistent president." The girls responded to their father on the giant screen with "Hi, Daddy!" and "I love you, Daddy." Kennedy Stirs Party Faithful Earlier in the night, Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, 76, battling a malignant brain tumor, nonetheless appeared hearty and robust in an unscheduled appearance. He told delegates, many of whom waved Kennedy signs above their heads, that "The work begins anew, the hope rises again and the dream lives on," a reprise of a famous speech he delivered at the Democrats' 1980 convention. "I have come here tonight to stand with you, to change America, to restore its future, to rise to our best ideals and to elect Barack Obama president of the United States," Kennedy said. He also pledged to be back in the U.S. Senate come January, when Democrats hope Obama will be inaugurated president. McCain A Target The convention formally began earlier in the day, and speakers wasted no time in attacking the presumptive Republican nominee, Arizona Sen. John McCain. Texas Rep. Silvestre Reyes, chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, told delegates that "America cannot afford a third Bush-Cheney term, which is what a McCain presidency would be." Illinois Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. said America needs "a leader who can heal the wounds of the last eight years, a leader who knows that what unites us is greater than what divides us." Still, the continuing squabbles between the Obama campaign and supporters of the rival he narrowly defeated, Hillary Clinton, threatened to reopen wounds in the Democratic Party. Grumbling Among Clinton Backers The convention got under way as polls show many supporters of Clinton still unsure about throwing their support behind Obama. In a news conference earlier in the day, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, the convention co-chair, admonished reporters for focusing on the conflict between the Obama campaign and Clinton supporters. "This is like a yesterday room," Pelosi said. "The nomination is decided. We have a vice president. We will work together to go forward. Every convention has its areas of disagreement. To stay wallowing in all of this is not productive." One remaining issue to be settled is Wednesday night's scheduled roll call of the states. Pelosi said she was against suggestions that it be called off in order to avoid a raucous pro-Clinton demonstration the night before Obama is to accept the party's nomination. The Obama campaign was reportedly considering allowing the roll call to proceed, but ending it after the New York delegation announced its count. That would presumably allow the "catharsis" that Clinton says her supporters deserve, yet reinforce the fact that this is Obama's convention. Party Message The dispute over Clinton's supporters threatened to detract from the message that Democrats hope to project to voters over the next four days: that of a unified party eager to point out the differences between Obama and McCain. Many in the long roster of Democratic convention speakers pointed to the nation's economic woes, as reflected in high energy prices and a housing crisis. "President Bush has run our economy into the ground," asserted New York Rep. Jose Serrano. "Our families cannot afford four more years of stagnation and failure." Delegates adopted the party's 2008 platform in one of the convention's first official acts. It calls for ending the war in Iraq responsibly; immigration reform that is both "tough" and "humane"; and planks on faith and fatherhood, a favorite theme of Obama's. McCain Defends Homes Meanwhile, McCain, who accepts the Republican presidential nomination next week, was not willing to cede the spotlight to Obama entirely. In an appearance on NBC's Tonight Show, McCain defended himself from criticism that he did not know how many homes his family owns. McCain, harking back to his time as a POW in Vietnam, told host Jay Leno that during the 5 1/2 years he spent in a prison cell, "I didn't have a house, I didn't have a kitchen table, I didn't have a table, I didn't have a chair." He added, "I spent those 5 1/2 years ... not because I wanted to get a house when I got out." | michelle.obama.79 |@lemmatized michelle:4 obama:17 stress:1 barack:6 american:3 value:3 paint:1 intimate:1 portrait:1 husband:4 father:2 family:4 man:1 faith:2 dream:2 monday:1 night:4 comment:1 come:3 prime:1 time:5 speech:3 democratic:3 national:1 convention:9 denver:1 aim:1 reassure:1 voter:2 share:1 ordinary:1 ready:1 lead:1 nation:2 say:11 believe:1 work:4 hard:2 want:3 life:2 word:1 bond:1 go:2 treat:1 people:1 dignity:1 respect:1 even:3 know:4 agree:1 describe:1 blue:1 collar:1 upbringing:1 chicago:1 parent:1 raise:1 emphasize:1 though:2 grow:1 way:2 across:1 continent:1 similar:1 tell:4 cheering:1 delegate:4 would:3 extraordinary:1 president:6 finally:1 bring:1 change:2 need:2 dismiss:1 question:1 patriotism:1 love:2 country:1 rebuttal:1 criticism:2 remark:1 earlier:4 year:5 felt:1 proud:1 america:4 first:2 obamas:1 two:1 daughter:1 join:1 mother:1 podium:1 appear:2 via:1 satellite:1 kansas:1 city:1 ask:2 crowd:1 many:5 persistent:1 girl:1 respond:1 giant:1 screen:1 hi:1 daddy:2 kennedy:4 stir:1 party:6 faithful:1 sen:2 edward:1 battle:1 malignant:1 brain:1 tumor:1 nonetheless:1 hearty:1 robust:1 unscheduled:1 appearance:2 wave:1 sign:1 head:1 begin:2 anew:1 hope:3 rise:2 live:1 reprise:1 famous:1 deliver:1 democrat:2 tonight:2 stand:1 restore:1 future:1 best:1 ideal:1 elect:1 united:1 state:2 also:1 pledge:1 back:2 u:3 senate:1 january:1 inaugurate:1 mccain:8 target:1 formally:1 day:3 speaker:3 waste:1 attack:1 presumptive:1 republican:2 nominee:1 arizona:1 john:1 texas:1 rep:3 silvestre:1 reyes:1 chairman:1 house:4 intelligence:1 committee:1 cannot:2 afford:2 third:1 bush:2 cheney:1 term:1 presidency:1 illinois:1 jesse:1 jackson:1 jr:1 leader:2 heal:1 wound:2 last:1 eight:1 unite:1 great:1 divide:1 still:2 continue:1 squabble:1 campaign:3 supporter:5 rival:1 narrowly:1 defeat:1 hillary:1 clinton:7 threaten:2 reopen:1 grumble:1 among:1 backer:1 get:3 poll:1 show:2 unsure:1 throw:1 support:1 behind:1 news:1 conference:1 nancy:1 pelosi:3 co:1 chair:2 admonish:1 reporter:1 focus:1 conflict:1 like:1 yesterday:1 room:1 nomination:3 decide:1 vice:1 together:1 forward:1 every:1 area:1 disagreement:1 stay:1 wallow:1 productive:1 one:2 remain:1 issue:1 settle:1 wednesday:1 schedule:1 roll:2 call:4 suggestion:1 order:1 avoid:1 raucous:1 pro:1 demonstration:1 accept:2 reportedly:1 consider:1 allow:2 proceed:1 end:2 new:2 york:2 delegation:1 announce:1 count:1 presumably:1 catharsis:1 deserve:1 yet:1 reinforce:1 fact:1 message:2 dispute:1 detract:1 democrats:1 project:1 next:2 four:2 unified:1 eager:1 point:2 difference:1 long:1 roster:1 economic:1 woe:1 reflect:1 high:1 energy:1 price:1 housing:1 crisis:1 run:1 economy:1 ground:1 assert:1 jose:1 serrano:1 stagnation:1 failure:1 adopt:1 platform:1 official:1 act:1 war:1 iraq:1 responsibly:1 immigration:1 reform:1 tough:1 humane:1 plank:1 fatherhood:1 favorite:1 theme:1 defends:1 home:2 meanwhile:1 presidential:1 week:1 willing:1 cede:1 spotlight:1 entirely:1 nbc:1 defend:1 hark:1 pow:1 vietnam:1 host:1 jay:1 leno:1 spend:2 prison:1 cell:1 kitchen:1 table:2 add:1 |@ngramms michelle_obama:3 barack_obama:3 american_dream:1 monday_night:1 prime_time:1 democratic_national:1 work_hard:1 parent_work:1 raise_family:1 president_barack:1 love_country:1 giant_screen:1 work_begin:1 united_state:1 hope_obama:1 earlier_day:2 john_mccain:1 obama_campaign:3 hillary_clinton:1 democratic_party:1 clinton_supporter:2 wednesday_night:1 roll_call:2 obama_mccain:2 call_end:1 republican_presidential:1 |
premier.league.137 | Premier League falls behind German Bundesliga as Europe most profitable football league Germany's Bundesliga has overtaken the Barclays Premier League as Europe's most profitable football division. The Premier League's operating profits fell by 57 percent to £79m in 2008-09 - the lowest levels since 1999-2000. It is only the second time since the Premier League began in 1992-93 that it has not been Europe's most profitable league. The Bundesliga recorded a £146m profit as revenue increased by £116m and wages went up by just £68m, according to Deloitte's Annual Review of Football Finance. The German first division also recorded the highest attendances in Europe for the seventh successive season – attracting 8,000 more people per game than the Premier League. The Premier League remains by far the biggest division in terms of generating revenue, which actually increased by £49m, but this was swallowed up by a £132m increase in wages. English top flight clubs spent in excess of £1.32billion on employee salaries – more than Italy's Serie A (£0.93bn), Spain's La Liga (£800m), the Bundesliga (£684m) and France's Lique 1 (£615m). The average Premier League footballer earned an estimated £21,600 a week or £1.1m a year in 2008-09 as top flight clubs each spent an average of £41m on player wages. At a loss: Premier League chief executive Richard Scudamore To compare, the average player in the Championship earned around a quarter of this: £275,000 a year or £5,300 a week. Only Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester United and the three clubs promoted at the start of the 2008-09 season – West Bromwich Albion, Stoke City and Hull City, who all had much lower wage bills – made a profit. The other 14 Premier League clubs recorded combined losses of £117m. Deloitte suggest clubs spend around 55 percent of their revenue on wages to achieve 'effective cost management' but, on average, Premier League sides spent 67 percent. This was a record high and an increase of five percent from the previous year, although it is still lower than Serie A (73 percent) and Lique 1 (69 percent). Yet only Arsenal (46 percent) and Manchester United (44 percent) managed to meet Deloitte's recommendations in 2008-09, with nine clubs spending more than 70 percent of their revenue on wages – a ratio regarded as a 'warning level'. It will come as no surprise that Portsmouth, who finished 14th in 2008-09 but were forced into administration and relegated last season, were the only Premier League side to spend more in wages than they made in revenue. The club' s wage bill accounted for 109 percent of their revenue. But the warning signs were there the season before, in which Harry Redknapp's Portsmouth won the FA Cup, as the club spent 76 percent of revenue on wages. Dan Jones, a partner in Deloitte's Sport Business Group, said: 'In 1995 we commented that "we believe controlling the wage bill is, long term, football's biggest challenge" and this year's figures illustrate the extent to which that challenge is becoming a real threat.' Break even: Champions Chelsea could miss out on European football if they do not comply with new UEFA rules in two years time Break even: Champions Chelsea could miss out on European football if they do not comply with new UEFA rules in two years time Under UEFA's new financial fair play rules, clubs will be expected to break even over a rolling three-year period if they want to play in the Champions League or Europa League. But the growth in wages is difficult to slow down because players have signed three- or four-year contracts. The Deloitte report suggests that performance-related pay could be the way to address the problem. 'Clubs should learn valuable lessons from the best of the corporate world,' it says, 'where basic pay is set at affordable levels, with bonuses built into contracts only if performance (and profit) allows it. 'Wages should be structured so they flex automatically for meaningful success, not just appearances, rather than trigger a financial crisis.' | premier.league.137 |@lemmatized premier:11 league:15 fall:1 behind:1 german:2 bundesliga:4 europe:4 profitable:3 football:6 germany:1 overtake:1 barclays:1 division:3 operate:1 profit:4 fell:1 percent:11 low:3 level:3 since:2 second:1 time:3 begin:1 record:4 revenue:7 increase:4 wage:12 go:1 accord:1 deloitte:5 annual:1 review:1 finance:1 first:1 also:1 high:2 attendance:1 seventh:1 successive:1 season:4 attract:1 people:1 per:1 game:1 remains:1 far:1 big:2 term:2 generate:1 actually:1 swallow:1 english:1 top:2 flight:2 club:10 spend:7 excess:1 employee:1 salary:1 italy:1 serie:2 spain:1 la:1 liga:1 france:1 lique:2 average:4 footballer:1 earn:2 estimate:1 week:2 year:8 player:3 loss:2 chief:1 executive:1 richard:1 scudamore:1 compare:1 championship:1 around:2 quarter:1 arsenal:2 liverpool:1 manchester:2 unite:2 three:3 promote:1 start:1 west:1 bromwich:1 albion:1 stoke:1 city:2 hull:1 much:1 bill:3 make:2 combined:1 suggest:2 achieve:1 effective:1 cost:1 management:1 side:2 five:1 previous:1 although:1 still:1 yet:1 manage:1 meet:1 recommendation:1 nine:1 ratio:1 regard:1 warn:1 come:1 surprise:1 portsmouth:2 finish:1 force:1 administration:1 relegate:1 last:1 account:1 warning:1 sign:2 harry:1 redknapp:1 win:1 fa:1 cup:1 dan:1 jones:1 partner:1 sport:1 business:1 group:1 say:2 comment:1 believe:1 control:1 long:1 challenge:2 figure:1 illustrate:1 extent:1 become:1 real:1 threat:1 break:3 even:3 champion:3 chelsea:2 could:3 miss:2 european:2 comply:2 new:3 uefa:3 rule:3 two:2 financial:2 fair:1 play:2 expect:1 rolling:1 period:1 want:1 europa:1 growth:1 difficult:1 slow:1 four:1 contract:2 report:1 performance:2 related:1 pay:2 way:1 address:1 problem:1 learn:1 valuable:1 lesson:1 best:1 corporate:1 world:1 basic:1 set:1 affordable:1 bonus:1 build:1 allow:1 structure:1 flex:1 automatically:1 meaningful:1 success:1 appearance:1 rather:1 trigger:1 crisis:1 |@ngramms premier_league:11 football_league:1 operate_profit:1 low_level:1 increase_wage:2 football_finance:1 record_high:2 club_spend:5 chief_executive:1 richard_scudamore:1 arsenal_liverpool:1 manchester_unite:2 start_season:1 stoke_city:1 wage_bill:3 club_record:1 percent_revenue:3 spend_percent:1 side_spend:1 account_percent:1 fa_cup:1 sport_business:1 long_term:1 champion_chelsea:2 european_football:2 uefa_rule:2 fair_play:1 club_expect:1 champion_league:1 report_suggest:1 address_problem:1 |
malaysia.airlines.flight.24 | MH370 search becomes most expensive aviation hunt in history, yet still no clues Experts estimate the three-month search has cost hundreds of millions of pounds as authorities admit they are no closer to finding missing plane The search for the missing Malaysia Airlines plane has been described as a "tangled mess" as experts predicted costs could reach hundreds of millions of pounds and authorities admitted they had been looking in the wrong area. Angry families of the 239 onboard described the decision to move the search as a "slap in the face" after authorities in Australia said they has found no wreckage in the targeted zone. The search will now shift to a slow and uncertain 12-month hunt across a broad stretch of the Indian Ocean. In a serious setback, authorities yesterday ruled out the area where a set of pings were detected in April as a possible crash point for the missing aircraft. The pings were believed to be from the plane's black box locator beacon but some officials have raised doubts about whether they were connected to the plane, which disappeared on March 8. "Our best theory at this point is that [the pings were] likely some sound produced by the ship ... or within the electronics of the towed pinger locator," Michael Dean, the US navy's deputy director of ocean engineering, told CNN. "Your fear any time you put electronic equipment in the water is that if any water gets in and grounds or shorts something out, that you could start producing sound." The US navy contradicted the claim, saying Mr Dean's comments were "speculative and premature". Analysts said the search — already the most expensive and extensive in aviation history — could cost "at least" hundreds of millions of pounds. Todd Curtis, an aviation expert and a former engineer for Boeing, said the final cost would depend on if, or when, the plane is found but the operation would be more challenging than previous searches because it was being conducted so far from land. "There has not been a large scale operation like this so far away from resources on land," he said. "The estimate of hundreds of millions of dollars is a good first-cut estimate but it could be of a magnitude higher that. It is too early to tell." Australia has already spent more than £24?million on the search and disclosed this month that it had budgeted £50?million for the next two years of the operation. Malaysia and China will continue to conduct the search with Australia but the two countries are planning to hire private contractors to run the underwater search. Warren Truss, Australia's deputy prime minister, said authorities were "very confident that the resting place of the aircraft is in the southern ([Indian] Ocean". The Australian authority running the operation said that an unmanned submarine, the Bluefin-21, had spent almost two months searching across 328 sq miles but found no sign of wreckage. The next phase will not begin until August and will cover more than 23,000 sq miles — an area almost the size of Ireland — across a zone based on the likely path of the Boeing 777, as determined by its contact with satellites. "No signs of aircraft debris have been found by the autonomous underwater vehicle since it joined the search effort," the authority said in a statement. "The Australian Transport Safety Bureau has advised that the search in the vicinity of the acoustic detections can now be considered complete and in its professional judgment, the area can now be discounted as the final resting place of MH370." Australia, Malaysia and China have sent vessels to the Indian Ocean to begin mapping the ocean floor, a process that will take about three months. The search authority plans to hire private contractors to operate underwater search equipment when the underwater maps are complete. "The underwater search will aim to locate the aircraft and any evidence (such as aircraft debris and flight recorders)," it said. The announcement that the search in the targeted area had been fruitless angered some relations. "It just is another slap in the face," said Danica Weeks, a New Zealander whose husband Paul was on the plane, told The Sydney Morning Herald. "It's just another long road for us — I'm just shattered by the news." Sarah Bajc, the girlfriend of Philip Wood, a US passenger said the search was "a tangled mess". The union for workers at Malaysia Airlines has called for the resignation of Ahmad Jauhari, the chief executive, and senior managers as the MH370 ordeal takes a growing toll on the struggling carrier. | malaysia.airlines.flight.24 |@lemmatized search:18 become:1 expensive:2 aviation:3 hunt:2 history:2 yet:1 still:1 clue:1 expert:3 estimate:3 three:2 month:5 cost:4 hundred:4 million:6 pound:3 authority:8 admit:2 closer:1 find:5 miss:3 plane:6 malaysia:4 airline:2 describe:2 tangle:1 mess:2 predict:1 could:4 reach:1 look:1 wrong:1 area:5 angry:1 family:1 onboard:1 decision:1 move:1 slap:2 face:2 australia:5 say:11 wreckage:2 targeted:2 zone:2 shift:1 slow:1 uncertain:1 across:3 broad:1 stretch:1 indian:3 ocean:5 serious:1 setback:1 yesterday:1 rule:1 set:1 ping:3 detect:1 april:1 possible:1 crash:1 point:2 aircraft:5 believe:1 black:1 box:1 locator:2 beacon:1 official:1 raise:1 doubt:1 whether:1 connect:1 disappear:1 march:1 best:1 theory:1 likely:2 sound:2 produce:2 ship:1 within:1 electronics:1 towed:1 pinger:1 michael:1 dean:2 u:4 navy:2 deputy:2 director:1 engineering:1 tell:3 cnn:1 fear:1 time:1 put:1 electronic:1 equipment:2 water:2 get:1 ground:1 short:1 something:1 start:1 contradict:1 claim:1 mr:1 comment:1 speculative:1 premature:1 analyst:1 already:2 extensive:1 least:1 todd:1 curtis:1 former:1 engineer:1 boeing:2 final:2 would:2 depend:1 operation:4 challenging:1 previous:1 conduct:2 far:2 land:2 large:1 scale:1 like:1 away:1 resource:1 dollar:1 good:1 first:1 cut:1 magnitude:1 high:1 early:1 spend:2 disclose:1 budget:1 next:2 two:3 year:1 china:2 continue:1 country:1 plan:2 hire:2 private:2 contractor:2 run:2 underwater:5 warren:1 truss:1 prime:1 minister:1 confident:1 rest:1 place:2 southern:1 australian:2 unmanned:1 submarine:1 bluefin:1 almost:2 sq:2 mile:2 sign:2 phase:1 begin:2 august:1 cover:1 size:1 ireland:1 base:1 path:1 determine:1 contact:1 satellite:1 debris:2 autonomous:1 vehicle:1 since:1 join:1 effort:1 statement:1 transport:1 safety:1 bureau:1 advise:1 vicinity:1 acoustic:1 detection:1 consider:1 complete:2 professional:1 judgment:1 discount:1 resting:1 send:1 vessel:1 map:2 floor:1 process:1 take:2 operate:1 aim:1 locate:1 evidence:1 flight:1 recorder:1 announcement:1 fruitless:1 angered:1 relation:1 another:2 danica:1 week:1 new:1 zealander:1 whose:1 husband:1 paul:1 sydney:1 morning:1 herald:1 long:1 road:1 shatter:1 news:1 sarah:1 bajc:1 girlfriend:1 philip:1 wood:1 passenger:1 tangled:1 union:1 worker:1 call:1 resignation:1 ahmad:1 jauhari:1 chief:1 executive:1 senior:1 manager:1 ordeal:1 grow:1 toll:1 struggle:1 carrier:1 |@ngramms expensive_aviation:1 search_cost:1 hundred_million:4 miss_plane:1 miss_malaysia_airline:1 move_search:1 search_shift:1 indian_ocean:2 miss_aircraft:1 black_box:1 disappear_march:1 time_put:1 aviation_history:1 aviation_expert:1 plane_find:1 search_conduct:1 large_scale:1 spend_million:1 malaysia_china:2 conduct_search:1 underwater_search:3 australia_deputy:1 prime_minister:1 rest_place:1 southern_indian_ocean:1 australian_authority:1 month_search:1 sq_mile:1 find_sign:1 begin_august:1 aircraft_debris:2 search_effort:1 authority_say_statement:1 transport_safety:1 ocean_floor:1 locate_aircraft:1 flight_recorder:1 malaysia_airline:1 chief_executive:1 |
michelle.obama.12 | In First Lady's Roots, a Complex Path From Slavery WASHINGTON — In 1850, the elderly master of a South Carolina estate took pen in hand and painstakingly divided up his possessions. Among the spinning wheels, scythes, tablecloths and cattle that he bequeathed to his far-flung heirs was a 6-year-old slave girl valued soon afterward at $475. In his will, she is described simply as the "negro girl Melvinia." After his death, she was torn away from the people and places she knew and shipped to Georgia. While she was still a teenager, a white man would father her first-born son under circumstances lost in the passage of time. In the annals of American slavery, this painful story would be utterly unremarkable, save for one reason: This union, consummated some two years before the Civil War, represents the origins of a family line that would extend from rural Georgia, to Birmingham, Ala., to Chicago and, finally, to the White House. Melvinia Shields, the enslaved and illiterate young girl, and the unknown white man who impregnated her are the great-great-great-grandparents of Michelle Obama, the first lady. Viewed by many as a powerful symbol of black advancement, Mrs. Obama grew up with only a vague sense of her ancestry, aides and relatives said. During the presidential campaign, the family learned about one paternal great-great-grandfather, a former slave from South Carolina, but the rest of Mrs. Obama's roots were a mystery. Now the more complete map of Mrs. Obama's ancestors — including the slave mother, white father and their biracial son, Dolphus T. Shields — for the first time fully connects the first African-American first lady to the history of slavery, tracing their five-generation journey from bondage to a front-row seat to the presidency. The findings — uncovered by Megan Smolenyak, a genealogist, and The New York Times — substantiate what Mrs. Obama has called longstanding family rumors about a white forebear. While President Obama's biracial background has drawn considerable attention, his wife's pedigree, which includes American Indian strands, highlights the complicated history of racial intermingling, sometimes born of violence or coercion, that lingers in the bloodlines of many African-Americans. Mrs. Obama and her family declined to comment for this article, aides said, in part because of the personal nature of the subject. "She is representative of how we have evolved and who we are," said Edward Ball, a historian who discovered that he had black relatives, the descendants of his white slave-owning ancestors, when he researched his memoir, "Slaves in the Family." "We are not separate tribes of Latinos and whites and blacks in America," Mr. Ball said. "We've all mingled, and we have done so for generations." The outlines of Mrs. Obama's family history unfolded from 19th century probate records, yellowing marriage licenses, fading photographs and the recollections of elderly women who remember the family. Ms. Smolenyak, who has traced the ancestry of many prominent figures, began studying the first lady's roots in earnest after conducting some preliminary research into Mrs. Obama's ancestry for an article published in The New York Times earlier this year. Of the dozens of relatives she identified, Ms. Smolenyak said, it was the slave girl who seemed to call out most clearly. "Out of all Michelle's roots, it's Melvinia who is screaming to be found," she said. When her owner, David Patterson, died in 1852, Melvinia soon found herself on a 200-acre farm with new masters, Mr. Patterson's daughter and son-in law, Christianne and Henry Shields. It was a strange and unfamiliar world. In South Carolina, she had lived on an estate with 21 slaves. In Georgia, she was one of only three slaves on property that is now part of a neat subdivision in Rex, near Atlanta. Whether Melvinia labored in the house or in the fields, there was no shortage of work: wheat, corn, sweet potatoes and cotton to plant and harvest, and 3 horses, 5 cows, 17 pigs and 20 sheep to care for, according to an 1860 agricultural survey. It is difficult to say who might have impregnated Melvinia, who gave birth to Dolphus around 1859, when she was perhaps as young as 15. At the time, Henry Shields was in his late 40s and had four sons ages 19 to 24, but other men may have spent time on the farm. "No one should be surprised anymore to hear about the number of rapes and the amount of sexual exploitation that took place under slavery; it was an everyday experience, " said Jason A. Gillmer, a law professor at Texas Wesleyan University, who has researched liaisons between slave owners and slaves. "But we do find that some of these relationships can be very complex." In 1870, three of Melvinia's four children, including Dolphus, were listed on the census as mulatto. One was born four years after emancipation, suggesting that the liaison that produced those children endured after slavery. She gave her children the Shields name, which may have hinted at their paternity or simply been the custom of former slaves taking their master's surnames. Even after she was freed, Melvinia stayed put, working as a farm laborer on land adjacent to that of Charles Shields, one of Henry's sons. But sometime in her 30s or 40s, census records show, Melvinia broke away and managed to reunite with former slaves from her childhood on the Patterson estate: Mariah and Bolus Easley, who settled with Melvinia in Bartow County, near the Alabama border. Dolphus married one of the Easleys' daughters, Alice, who is Mrs. Obama's great-great-grandmother. A community "that had been ripped apart was somehow pulling itself back together," Ms. Smolenyak said of the group in Bartow County. Still, Melvinia appears to have lived with the unresolved legacy of her childhood in slavery until the very end. Her 1938 death certificate, signed by a relative, says "don't know" in the space for the names of her parents, suggesting that Melvinia, then in her 90s, may never have known herself. Sometime before 1888, Dolphus and Alice Shields continued the migration, heading to Birmingham, a boomtown with a rumbling railroad, an iron and steel industry and factories that attracted former slaves and their children from across the South. Dolphus Shields was in his 30s and very light skinned — some say he looked like a white man — a church-going carpenter who could read, write and advance in an industrializing town. By 1900, he owned his own home, census records show. By 1911, he had opened his own carpentry and tool sharpening business. A co-founder of First Ebenezer Baptist Church and Trinity Baptist Church, which later became active in the civil rights movement, he supervised Sunday schools at both churches, which still exist today, and at Regular Missionary Baptist Church. "He was the dean of the deacons in Birmingham," said Helen Heath, 88, who attended church with him. "He was a serious man. He was about business." He carried his family into the working-class, moving into a segregated neighborhood of striving black homeowners and renters. In his home, there was no smoking, no cursing, no gum chewing, no lipstick or trousers for ladies and absolutely no blues on the radio, which was reserved for hymns, remembered Bobbie Holt, 73, who was raised by Mr. Shields and his fourth wife, Lucy. She said the family went to church "every night of the week, it seemed like." He carried peppermints for neighborhood children, Mrs. Holt said, and told funny stories about his escapades as a boy. But his family struggled. His first wife, Alice Easley Shields, moved around after they split up, working as a seamstress and a maid, and two of their sons stumbled. Robert Lee Shields, Mrs. Obama's great-grandfather, married Annie Lawson in 1906 and worked as a laborer and a railroad porter but disappeared from the public record sometime around his 32nd birthday. Willie Arthur Shields, an inventor who obtained patents for improving dry cleaning operations, ended up working as a maintenance man, Mrs. Holt said. As for his ancestry, Dolphus Shields didn't talk about it. "We got to the place where we didn't want anybody to know we knew slaves; people didn't want to talk about that," said Mrs. Heath, who said she assumed he had white relatives because his skin color and hair texture "told you he had to be near white." At a time when blacks despaired at the intransigence and violence of whites who barred them from voting, from most city jobs, from whites-only restaurants and from owning property in white neighborhoods, Dolphus Shields served as a rare link between the deeply divided communities. His carpentry shop stood in the white section of town, and he mixed easily and often with whites. "They would come to his shop and sit and talk," Mrs. Holt said. Dolphus Shields firmly believed race relations would improve. "It's going to come together one day," he often said, Mrs. Holt recalled. By the time he died in 1950 at age 91, change was on the way. On June 9, 1950, the day that his obituary appeared on the front page of The Birmingham World, the black newspaper also ran a banner headline that read, "U.S. Court Bans Segregation in Diners and Higher Education." The Supreme Court had outlawed separate but equal accommodations on railway cars and in universities in Texas and Oklahoma. Up North, his grandson, a painter named Purnell Shields, Mrs. Obama's grandfather, was positioning his family to seize the widening opportunities in Chicago. But as his descendants moved forward, they lost touch with the past. Today, Dolphus Shields lies in a neglected black cemetery, where patches of grass grow knee-high and many tombstones have toppled. Mrs. Holt, a retired nursing assistant, said he came to her in a dream last month. She dug up his photograph, never guessing that she would soon learn that Dolphus Shields was a great-great-grandfather of the first lady. "Oh, my God," said Mrs. Holt, gasping at the news. "I always looked up to him, but I would never have imagined something like this. Praise God, we've come a long way." | michelle.obama.12 |@lemmatized first:10 lady:6 root:4 complex:2 path:1 slavery:6 washington:1 elderly:2 master:3 south:4 carolina:3 estate:3 take:3 pen:1 hand:1

michelle.obama.142 | Michelle Obama surprises Oscars by presenting Best Picture award U.S. first lady Michelle Obama made a surprise and unprecedented appearance on Sunday's Oscars telecast when she presented the award for Best Picture, the first time a president or first lady has ever presented an Academy Award. Appearing live on screen from the White House in Washington, almost 3,000 miles from the Oscars ceremony in Hollywood, Obama praised the work of the movie industry before announcing the Iran hostage drama "Argo" the Best Picture winner. Wearing a silver evening dress, Obama said this year's nominated films had "made us laugh, made us weep and grip our armrests just a little bit tighter." Obama added: "They reminded us we can overcome any obstacles if we dig deep enough and hard enough. They are especially important for young people. Everyday they engage in the arts, they learn to open their imaginations ... and strive to reach those dreams." "Argo" director and co-producer Ben Affleck said he felt like he was "sort of hallucinating" when Obama presented the award. "The fact that it was the first lady was an enormous honor ... it was very cool," Affleck said backstage after collecting the Best Picture trophy. | michelle.obama.142 |@lemmatized michelle:2 obama:6 surprise:2 oscar:3 present:4 best:4 picture:4 award:4 u:4 first:4 lady:3 make:3 unprecedented:1 appearance:1 sunday:1 telecast:1 time:1 president:1 ever:1 academy:1 appear:1 live:1 screen:1 white:1 house:1 washington:1 almost:1 mile:1 ceremony:1 hollywood:1 praise:1 work:1 movie:1 industry:1 announce:1 iran:1 hostage:1 drama:1 argo:2 winner:1 wear:1 silver:1 evening:1 dress:1 say:3 year:1 nominate:1 film:1 laugh:1 weep:1 grip:1 armrest:1 little:1 bit:1 tight:1 add:1 remind:1 overcome:1 obstacle:1 dig:1 deep:1 enough:2 hard:1 especially:1 important:1 young:1 people:1 everyday:1 engage:1 art:1 learn:1 open:1 imagination:1 strive:1 reach:1 dream:1 director:1 co:1 producer:1 ben:1 affleck:2 felt:1 like:1 sort:1 hallucinate:1 fact:1 enormous:1 honor:1 cool:1 backstage:1 collect:1 trophy:1 |@ngramms michelle_obama:2 white_house:1 young_people:1 |
premier.league.134 | Forty factors fuelling football inflation 1 The First Division play-off game is "probably" the richest club game in the world, worth around £34m to the winners, including parachute payments if the club goes straight back down. 2 In 2001-02, 32 clubs reported operating profits - 15 from the Premiership, 17 from the Football League. 3 The Uefa Champions League is, in effect, the sixth major European League and is worth in the region of £25m to the clubs who reach the semi-finals or final. 4 Teams finishing in the top three of the Premiership and taking part in the Champions League stand to make between £44m to £55m from TV, prize money, gate receipts and other commercial spin-offs. 5 Clubs qualifying for the Uefa Cup after finishing fourth or fifth in the Premiership stand to make around £24m. 6 Premiership clubs who do not compete in Europe and finish outside the top six receive an average of £14m from the BSkyB/ITV broadcasting deal. 7 Over the 10 years of the Premiership, Manchester United registered the highest cumulative profits at £229m, with Tottenham Hotspur in second place with £74m. 8 Premiership clubs have spent around £1bn on stadium redevelopment since the league formed in 1991-92. 9 League match attendances in all four divisions approached 27.8m, the highest for 30 years. 10 FA Cup attendances in 2001-02 were up by 8.5 % and Football League Cup gates increased by 12.2%. 11 The Premiership is the strongest league in revenue terms. England's total income rose 21% to reach €1.748bn (£1.2bn) and the Premiership receives more revenue than France and Germany put together. 12 Clubs in the Premiership reported operating profits of £84m, the highest since 1997-98, with 83% of clubs reporting an operating profit. 13 The five Premiership clubs with the biggest pre-tax losses were Fulham (£40m), Leeds United (£34m), Arsenal (£22m), Chelsea (£17m) and Middlesbrough (£16m). 14 In 2001-02, Manchester United reported the highest operating profit at £34m, followed by Newcastle United at £15m. 15 Promotion from the First Division to the Premiership at the end of the 2001-02 season was worth around £16m in extra income for the successful clubs. 16 The average income for a Premiership club was £56.6m. However only seven of the 20 clubs achieved this figure - Manchester United, Liverpool, Tottenham, Newcastle United, Chelsea, Leeds United and Arsenal. 17 These seven clubs apart, the average income for the rest of the Premiership dropped to £37m, indicating that a "league within a league" has been formed. 18 The average Premiership club has an income four times greater than its First Division counterpart, which earns around £12.4m. This is likely to increase to six times greater over the next few years. 19 The average income for a Second Division club was £4.3m, and £2.7m for a Third Division club. 20 The cost of relegation from the Premiership to the First Division is around £12m in reduced income. 21 League position and wage bills are closely related. The top five payers in the Premiership also finished in the top five. 22 Average wages for players have increased 700% during the Premiership's existence. 23 In 1992-93 the average wage for a Premiership player was £75,000 per year. In 2001-02 the average wage for a Premiership player was £600,000. 24 In 1992-93 the average wage for a First Division player was £50,000 while in 2001-02 it was £200,000. Over the same period, the Second Division average wage went from £20,000 to £70,000 and the Division Three average wage increased from £15,000 in 1992-93 to £42,000 in 2001-02. 25 The biggest spenders in the transfer market over the past six season have been Manchester United, followed by Leeds United, Chelsea, Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur. 26 South-west London saw the greatest activity in the transfer market in the 2001-02 season with Fulham and their neighbours Chelsea spending a total of £59m between them. 27 Spending between Premiership clubs on transfers stood at £93.5m in 2002-03 with an average of £3.2m per transfer. 28 The amount of money filtering down from the Premiership to the Football League via transfers was only £18m. 29 Large amounts of cash continue to leave the English game with clubs buying players from abroad. A net outflow of £190m was recorded, consisting of £159m from the Premiership and £31m from the Football League. 30 The average crowd capacity at a Premiership club's stadium is 37,000. 31 The average price of a ticket for a Premiership game is £25. 32 Football League attendances in 2001-02 stood at 14.7m, up 8.5% on the previous season. 33 The average Premiership attendance was 34,324. Total Premiership match attendances broke through the 13m barrier in 2001-02. 34 Average First Division attendance was 15,000 in 2001-02 and the Second Division average was 7,200. The Third Division average attendance was 4,345. 35 Manchester United topped the table of most valuable players on their books, recording their players worth at £82.2m in 2001-02. They were followed by Leeds United, who had player assests valued at £66.5m. Homegrown players do not feature on clubs' balance sheets. 36 In total, the 92 clubs in the Premiership and Football League recorded a pre-tax loss of £204m. 37 The Premiership is the best attended top division in European football. Its average crowd is 11% above its nearest rival, the German Bundesliga. 38 Income from merchandising represents 27% of total commerical income for Premiership clubs. Broadcasting revenue has become the largest single source of income for Premiership clubs, overtaking matchday income. 39 The average Premiership club earns £50m more revenue than the average First Division club - more than £1bn in total difference between the two divisions. 40 The average Premiership club pays £35.3m in wages, up from £28.1m in 2000-01. | premier.league.134 |@lemmatized forty:1 factor:1 fuel:1 football:8 inflation:1 first:7 division:16 play:1 game:4 probably:1 rich:1 club:26 world:1 worth:4 around:6 winner:1 include:1 parachute:1 payment:1 go:2 straight:1 back:1 report:4 operate:2 profit:5 premiership:32 league:15 uefa:2 champion:2 effect:1 sixth:1 major:1 european:2 region:1 reach:2 semi:1 final:2 team:1 finish:4 top:6 three:2 take:1 part:1 stand:4 make:2 tv:1 prize:1 money:2 gate:2 receipt:1 commercial:1 spin:1 offs:1 qualify:1 cup:3 fourth:1 fifth:1 compete:1 europe:1 outside:1 six:3 receive:2 average:22 bskyb:1 itv:1 broadcasting:2 deal:1 year:4 manchester:5 unite:5 register:1 high:4 cumulative:1 tottenham:3 hotspur:2 second:4 place:1 spend:2 stadium:2 redevelopment:1 since:2 form:2 match:2 attendance:7 four:2 approach:1 fa:1 increase:4 strong:1 revenue:4 term:1 england:1 total:6 income:11 rise:1 france:1 germany:1 put:1 together:1 operating:2 five:3 big:2 pre:2 tax:2 loss:2 fulham:2 leeds:4 arsenal:2 chelsea:4 middlesbrough:1 follow:3 newcastle:2 united:6 promotion:1 end:1 season:4 extra:1 successful:1 however:1 seven:2 achieve:1 figure:1 liverpool:2 apart:1 rest:1 drop:1 indicate:1 within:1 time:2 great:3 counterpart:1 earn:2 likely:1 next:1 third:2 cost:1 relegation:1 reduced:1 position:1 wage:8 bill:1 closely:1 relate:1 payer:1 also:1 player:9 existence:1 per:2 period:1 spender:1 transfer:5 market:2 past:1 south:1 west:1 london:1 saw:1 activity:1 neighbour:1 spending:1 amount:2 filter:1 via:1 large:2 cash:1 continue:1 leave:1 english:1 clubs:1 buying:1 abroad:1 net:1 outflow:1 record:3 consist:1 crowd:2 capacity:1 price:1 ticket:1 previous:1 break:1 barrier:1 table:1 valuable:1 book:1 assests:1 value:1 homegrown:1 feature:1 balance:1 sheet:1 best:1 attend:1 near:1 rival:1 german:1 bundesliga:1 merchandise:1 represent:1 commerical:1 become:1 single:1 source:1 overtake:1 matchday:1 difference:1 two:1 pay:1 |@ngramms play_game:1 payment_club:1 club_report:2 operate_profit:2 football_league:6 champion_league:2 major_european:1 club_reach:1 team_finish:1 stand_make:2 uefa_cup:1 premiership_club:11 manchester_unite:3 league_form:2 league_match:1 fa_cup:1 increase_premiership:2 league_revenue:1 club_premiership:2 tax_loss:2 leeds_unite:2 newcastle_united:2 end_season:1 extra_income:1 successful_club:1 average_income:3 manchester_united:2 liverpool_tottenham:2 time_great:1 income_league:1 wage_bill:1 average_wage:6 transfer_market:2 leeds_united:2 south_west:1 amount_money:1 large_amount:1 average_crowd:2 average_price:1 average_premiership:1 premiership_match:1 european_football:1 source_income:1 revenue_average:1 division_average:1 |

In its scale and planning, the violence in Paris — which has left 132 people dead — marks a shift beyond anything seen from the jihadis. With at least eight plotters already known to have been directly involved with blood on their hands, it is also shaping up to be the most complex successful plot planned from abroad against the west since 9/11.

Ever since the 2008 terror attack by Lashkar-e-Taiba in Mumbai, they have worried about the potential for a similar marauding band of well-armed murderers to wreak havoc in a western capital. Until now, no jihadi organisation has had the wherewithal to accomplish it, although there have been signs it was coming. In the past few months, two senior western counter-terrorism officials told the Financial Times that their assessment of Isis's objectives and ambitions far beyond its borders had shifted dramatically. Isis wanted to mount a "spectacular" attack of the kind al-Qaeda made its name perpetrating, one of them said, but what had been unclear — until Friday — was whether they had the capability. Isis, which has long focused on inspiring random acts of violence — urging "lone wolves" to kill, as in the Brussels Jewish museum shootings of May 2014, or the Sousse beach massacre in Tunisia of July this year — now appears to be honing its efforts to inspire followers, and focusing it with more careful planning and co-ordination. "It's not just about inspiring any more, but motivating," says Patrick Skinner, former CIA official and now director of special projects at the intelligence consultancy the Soufan Group. "They are projecting their terror further and more deliberately." Speaking on Saturday morning, President François Hollande was unequivocal. "These attacks were prepared, planned from the outside, with internal complicity," he said. High quality global journalism requires investment.

The French government declared a state of emergency, tightened border controls and mobilized 1,500 soldiers in consequence to the 13 November Paris attacks. At least 120 people have been killed in a series of attacks in Paris on 13 November, according to French officials. Eight assailants were killed, seven when they detonated their explosive belts, and one when he was shot by officers, police said. EPA/CHRISTOPHE PETIT TESSON ©EPA In Paris on Friday evening, in the busy, crowded cultural centre of Europe, thronging with ordinary citizens winding down for a weekend, Isis struck with its most audacious and bloody attack on the west to date. In its scale and planning, the violence in Paris — which has left 132 people dead — marks a shift beyond anything seen from the jihadis. With at least eight plotters already known to have been directly involved with blood on their hands, it is also shaping up to be the most complex successful plot planned from abroad against the west since 9/11.

Sign up now firstFT FirstFT is our new essential daily email briefing of the best stories from across the web It is the sum of European intelligence agencies' fears. Ever since the 2008 terror attack by Lashkar-e-Taiba in Mumbai, they have worried about the potential for a similar marauding band of well-armed murderers to wreak havoc in a western capital. Until now, no jihadi organisation has had the wherewithal to accomplish it, although there have been signs it was coming. In the past few months, two senior western counter-terrorism officials told the Financial Times that their assessment of Isis's objectives and ambitions far beyond its borders had shifted dramatically. Isis wanted to mount a "spectacular" attack of the kind al-Qaeda made its name perpetrating, one of them said, but what had been unclear — until Friday — was whether they had the capability. Isis, which has long focused on inspiring random acts of violence — urging "lone wolves" to kill, as in the Brussels Jewish museum shootings of May 2014, or the Sousse beach massacre in Tunisia of July this year — now appears to be honing its efforts to inspire followers, and focusing it with more careful planning and co-ordination. "It's not just about inspiring any more, but motivating," says Patrick Skinner, former CIA official and now director of special projects at the intelligence consultancy the Soufan Group. "They are projecting their terror further and more deliberately." Speaking on Saturday morning, President François Hollande was unequivocal. "These attacks were prepared, planned from the outside, with internal complicity," he said. Inside Isis Inc How the terrorist group funds its operations with oil FILE - This undated file image posted on a militant website on Tuesday, Jan. 14, 2014 shows fighters from the al-Qaida linked Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) marching in Raqqa, Syria. Once a vibrant, mixed city considered a bastion of support for President Bashar Assad, the eastern city of Raqqa is now a shell of its former life, transformed by al-Qaida militants into the nucleus of the terror group's version of an Islamic caliphate they hope one day to establish in Syria and Iraq. In rare interviews with The Associated Press, residents and activists in Raqqa describe a city where fear prevails, music has been banned, Christians have to pay religious tax in return for protection and face-veiled women and pistol-wielding men in jihadi uniforms patrol the streets.

The targets — a stadium, a Cambodian restaurant, a shopping mall, a concert hall — were chosen with deliberation and care.

Comment on the attacks in Paris Gideon Rachman François Heisbourg Philip Stephens Gideon Rachman Terrorists strike at a particularly sensitive moment in the history of both France and Europe Success in defeating terrorism will be measured by society's response Philip Stephens Syria's civil war transfers almost casually to the heart of one of Europe's great cities But crucially, for Isis's potential recruits — thousands of radical or sympathetic Muslims in Europe and elsewhere around the world — they mean something very different. The attacks, Isis's message says to them, invoking Allah and the prophet 16 times in its claim of responsibility, struck at "idolators". In both an operational and an ideological sense, it is a scaling up of the Charlie Hebdo atrocity less than a year ago. For Isis and its would-be recruits, this was holy retribution on a "celebration of perversity". The message to the recruits was one designed to play on existing cultural cleavages. Isis, it showed, would strike at the elements of Western society that made them most uncomfortable. For those sympathetic to the cause, it was a call to arms. For the citizens of Paris and the peaceful world, this was mass murder on a Friday night. "This is an attack on all of humanity and universal values we share," US President Barack Obama said on Friday evening. | ParisAttacks2015_(22) |@lemmatized paris:17 attack:23 bloody:4 atrocity:3

malaysia.airlines.flight.278 | Malaysia plane: Bad weather halts search for flight MH370 Australia officials say the search for the missing Malaysia Airlines plane has been suspended because of bad weather. The Australian Maritime Safety Authority (Amsa) said high winds and rain meant planes could not fly safely. Malaysian PM Najib Razak says satellite data showed the plane ended its journey in remote seas west of Australia. In Beijing relatives of passengers clashed with police outside Malaysia's embassy, as China asked to see data on which Malaysia's conclusion was based. About 200 relatives marched to the diplomatic mission, with scuffles breaking out as they confronted security personnel. Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 disappeared on 8 March as it flew from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing. It was carrying a total of 239 people, including 153 Chinese nationals. A multinational search effort has focused on seas some 2,500km (1,500 miles) to the southwest of the Australian city of Perth. But in a news conference late on Monday, the Malaysian leader said it had to be concluded "with deep sadness and regret" that according to new data "flight MH370 ended in the southern Indian Ocean". Speaking to media on Tuesday, Malaysia Airlines CEO Ahmad Jauhari Yahya said: "We do not know why, we do not know how this terrible tragedy happened." But he added: "The announcement made last night and shared with families is the reality that we must now accept." Malaysia Airlines Chairman Mohammed Nor Yusof described the situation as "an unprecedented event requiring an unprecedented response". "The investigation under way may yet prove to be even longer and more complex than it has been since 8 March," he said. "But we will continue to support the families as we have done throughout, and to support the authorities as the search for definitive answers continues." 'Detailed evidence' Planes from several nations have been scouring waters far off Perth for signs of the missing plane, in a search co-ordinated by Australia. There have been several sightings of debris, but none have yet been confirmed as linked to the plane. In its statement, Amsa said it had undertaken a risk assessment "and determined that the current weather conditions would make any air and sea search activities hazardous and pose a risk to crew". "Therefore, Amsa has suspended all sea and air search operations for today due to these weather conditions," it said. Australia's Defence Minister David Johnston said search efforts were unlikely to start again for "at least another 24 hours". He described the search as a "massive logistical exercise" in an "extremely remote" part of the world. Mark Binskin, vice-chief of the Australian Defence Force, said: "We're not searching for a needle in a haystack. We're still trying to define where the haystack is." China, meanwhile, has asked Malaysia to hand over the data that led it to conclude the plane had flown into the sea. "We demand the Malaysian side state the detailed evidence that leads them to this judgement as well as supply all the relevant information and evidence about the satellite data analysis," Chinese Deputy Foreign Minister Xie Hangsheng said, according to a statement on the ministry's website. "The search and rescue work cannot stop now. We demand the Malaysian side continue to finish all the work including search and rescue," he added. Mr Najib said the conclusion the plane was lost was based on new satellite analysis by British firm Inmarsat and information from the UK's Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB). Inmarsat had already said it received automated "pings" from the plane over its satellite network after the aircraft ceased radio and radar contact. Mr Najib said Inmarsat had been able to shed further light on the plane's flight path by performing further calculations "using a type of analysis never before used in an investigation of this sort". Beijing protest The fact that Malaysian officials sent news of Mr Najib's announcement to some relatives by SMS has attracted criticism. Ahmad Jauhari Yahya, the airline's CEO, said on Tuesday that SMS was used only as a last resort, when the news could not be delivered in person or by telephone, with the "sole and only motivation" of ensuring that families heard the news first. In Beijing, meanwhile, relatives of passengers on board the plane released a statement accusing the Malaysian government of trying to "delay, distort and hide the truth". Dozens of them then left their Beijing hotel on a protest bound for the Malaysian embassy, carrying banners asking Kuala Lumpur to be truthful with the relatives. Police blocked their buses from leaving, so they left the buses and walked there themselves, with scuffles later erupting outside the diplomatic mission. In Malaysia, newspapers ran black or darkened front pages in tribute to those now believed to have died. | malaysia.airlines.flight.278 |@lemmatized malaysia:9 plane:12 bad:2 weather:4 halt:1 search:12 flight:4 australia:4 official:2 say:15 miss:2 airline:5 suspend:2 australian:3 maritime:1 safety:1 authority:2 amsa:3 high:1 wind:1 rain:1 meant:1 could:2 fly:3 safely:1 malaysian:7 pm:1 najib:4 razak:1 satellite:4 data:5 show:1 end:2 journey:1 remote:2 seas:1 west:1 beijing:5 relative:5 passenger:2 clash:1 police:2 outside:2 embassy:2 china:2 ask:3 see:1 conclusion:2 base:2 march:3 diplomatic:2 mission:2 scuffle:2 break:1 confront:1 security:1 personnel:1 disappear:1 kuala:2 lumpur:2 carry:2 total:1 people:1 include:2 chinese:2 national:1 multinational:1 effort:2 focus:1 sea:4 mile:1 southwest:1 city:1 perth:2 news:4 conference:1 late:1 monday:1 leader:1 conclude:2 deep:1 sadness:1 regret:1 accord:2 new:2 southern:1 indian:1 ocean:1 speaking:1 medium:1 tuesday:2 ceo:2 ahmad:2 jauhari:2 yahya:2 know:2 terrible:1 tragedy:1 happen:1 add:2 announcement:2 make:2 last:2 night:1 share:1 family:3 reality:1 must:1 accept:1 chairman:1 mohammed:1 yusof:1 describe:2 situation:1 unprecedented:2 event:1 require:1 response:1 investigation:3 way:1 may:1 yet:2 prove:1 even:1 long:1 complex:1 since:1 continue:3 support:2 throughout:1 definitive:1 answer:1 detailed:2 evidence:3 several:2 nation:1 scour:1 water:1 far:2 sign:1 co:1 ordinate:1 sighting:1 debris:1 none:1 confirm:1 link:1 statement:3 undertake:1 risk:2 assessment:1 determine:1 current:1 condition:2 would:1 air:3 activity:1 hazardous:1 pose:1 crew:1 therefore:1 operation:1 today:1 due:1 defence:2 minister:2 david:1 johnston:1 unlikely:1 start:1 least:1 another:1 hour:1 massive:1 logistical:1 exercise:1 extremely:1 part:1 world:1 mark:1 binskin:1 vice:1 chief:1 force:1 needle:1 haystack:2 still:1 try:2 define:1 meanwhile:2 hand:1 lead:2 demand:2 side:2 state:1 judgement:1 well:1 supply:1 relevant:1 information:2 analysis:3 deputy:1 foreign:1 xie:1 hangsheng:1 ministry:1 website:1 rescue:2 work:2 cannot:1 stop:1 finish:1 mr:3 lose:1 british:1 firm:1 inmarsat:3 uk:1 accident:1 branch:1 aaib:1 already:1 receive:1 automated:1 ping:1 network:1 aircraft:1 cease:1 radio:1 radar:1 contact:1 able:1 shed:1 light:1 path:1 perform:1 calculation:1 use:3 type:1 never:1 sort:1 protest:2 fact:1 send:1 sm:2 attract:1 criticism:1 resort:1 deliver:1 person:1 telephone:1 sole:1 motivation:1 ensure:1 hear:1 first:1 board:1 release:1 accuse:1 government:1 delay:1 distort:1 hide:1 truth:1 dozen:1 leave:3 hotel:1 bound:1 banner:1 truthful:1 block:1 bus:2 walk:1 later:1 erupt:1 newspaper:1 run:1 black:1 darkened:1 front:1 page:1 tribute:1 believe:1 die:1 |@ngramms malaysia_plane:1 bad_weather:2 search_flight:1 miss_malaysia_airline:1 safety_authority:1 najib_razak:1 show_plane:1 west_australia:1 conclusion_base:1 malaysia_airline_flight:1 disappear_march:1 kuala_lumpur:2 people_include:1 chinese_national:1 search_effort:2 sea_mile:1 australian_city:1 monday_malaysian:1 flight_end:1 southern_indian_ocean:1 malaysia_airline:2 share_family:1 support_family:1 authority_search:1 evidence_plane:1 miss_plane:1 sighting_debris:1 weather_condition:2 search_activity:1 search_operation:1 defence_minister:1 remote_part:1 australian_defence:1 plane_fly:1 demand_malaysian:2 side_state:1 evidence_lead:1 information_evidence:1 chinese_deputy:1 foreign_minister:1 accord_statement:1 search_rescue:2 side_continue:1 finish_work:1 mr_najib:3 plane_lose:1 analysis_british:1 firm_inmarsat:1 uk_air:1 accident_investigation:1 plane_satellite:1 network_aircraft:1 radio_radar:1 light_plane:1 flight_path:1 investigation_sort:1 malaysian_official:1 release_statement:1 malaysian_government:1 hide_truth:1 dozen_leave:1 beijing_hotel:1 bound_malaysian:1 |
samsung.galaxy.s5.45 | Samsung's phone market share takes a bruising as Chinese rivals surge Samsung warned that its smartphone sales weren't that great this spring, and now we have the numbers to show just what the company meant. IDC estimates that Samsung's smartphone shipments saw a rare year-over-year drop in the second quarter, taking it from a lofty 32.3 percent market share down to 25.2 percent. That's still enough to give it a comfortable lead, but a shock for a company which is used to growth. The cause, analysts say, is the rapid rise of Chinese brands that cut directly into Samsung's low-end business. Huawei claimed 6.9 percent of the smartphone space after doubling its shipments, thanks in part to heavy discounts on phones like the Ascend P7; Lenovo jumped to 5.4 percent on the back of both budget phones at home as well as rapid expansion abroad. Both Apple (11.9 percent) and LG (4.9 percent) lost share, although IDC notes that their shipments were up. Also, neither firm was expected to have a stellar season. LG only just launched its hot-selling G3 flagship at the tail end of the spring, while many expect Apple to jumpstart sales with at least one new iPhone in September. It may be trickier for Samsung to bounce back, however. The spring was supposed to represent a big spike in sales as the Galaxy S5 arrived, but that didn't materialize. The company is pinning its hopes on both a new Galaxy Note and a mountain of budget phones. However, historically, neither has sold as well as the Galaxy S series. | samsung.galaxy.s5.45 |@lemmatized samsung:5 phone:4 market:2 share:3 take:2 bruising:1 chinese:2 rival:1 surge:1 warn:1 smartphone:3 sale:3 great:1 spring:3 number:1 show:1 company:3 meant:1 idc:2 estimate:1 shipment:3 saw:1 rare:1 year:2 drop:1 second:1 quarter:1 lofty:1 percent:6 still:1 enough:1 give:1 comfortable:1 lead:1 shock:1 use:1 growth:1 cause:1 analyst:1 say:1 rapid:2 rise:1 brand:1 cut:1 directly:1 low:1 end:2 business:1 huawei:1 claim:1 space:1 double:1 thanks:1 part:1 heavy:1 discount:1 like:1 ascend:1 lenovo:1 jump:1 back:2 budget:2 home:1 well:2 expansion:1 abroad:1 apple:2 lg:2 lose:1 although:1 note:2 also:1 neither:2 firm:1 expect:2 stellar:1 season:1 launch:1 hot:1 sell:2 flagship:1 tail:1 many:1 jumpstart:1 least:1 one:1 new:2 iphone:1 september:1 may:1 tricky:1 bounce:1 however:2 suppose:1 represent:1 big:1 spike:1 galaxy:3 arrive:1 materialize:1 pin:1 hope:1 mountain:1 historically:1 series:1 |@ngramms samsung_phone:1 market_share:2 smartphone_sale:1 number_show:1 samsung_smartphone:1 chinese_brand:1 low_end:1 jump_percent:1 budget_phone:2 sale_galaxy:1 galaxy_note:1 galaxy_series:1 |
ParisAttacks2015_(27) | Paris attacks: BBC names Stade de France bomber as M al-Mahmod The picture of a suicide bomber issued by French police in connection with the Paris attacks is of a man travelling under the name of M al-Mahmod, the BBC understands. The suspect - the third suicide bomber at the Stade de France according to French police - entered the Greek island of Leros on 3 October. He was with Ahmad al-Mohammed, a fellow Stade de France attacker. Islamic State militants killed 130 people in Paris on 13 November. French police have not named the man in the latest appeal for information. But the BBC's Ed Thomas has matched the image released by French police with a photo on the arrival papers at Leros. Our correspondent says the two men bought ferry tickets to leave Leros to continue their journey through Europe with Syrian refugees French media have reported that nine militants carried out the attacks, and seven died on Friday night. A huge manhunt has been launched for one of the main suspects at large, Belgium-born French national Salah Abdeslam. One of the men who drove Abdeslam to Belgium told his lawyer that he was dressed in a "big jacket" and may have had a suicide belt. The lawyer, Carine Couquelet, told French TV this raised questions, including the possibility that Abdeslam was supposed to blow himself up in Paris but then had second thoughts. Friends of Abdeslam told ABC News they had spoken to him on Skype and said he was hiding in Brussels and desperately trying to get to Syria. They said he was caught between European authorities hunting him and IS members who were "watching him" and were unhappy that he had not detonated his suicide belt. | ParisAttacks2015_(27) |@lemmatized paris:4 attack:3 bbc:3 name:3 stade:3 de:3 france:3 bomber:3 al:3 mahmod:2 picture:1 suicide:4 issue:1 french:7 police:4 connection:1 man:2 travel:1 understand:1 suspect:2 third:1 accord:1 enter:1 greek:1 island:1 leros:3 october:1 ahmad:1 mohammed:1 fellow:1 attacker:1 islamic:1 state:1 militant:2 kill:1 people:1 november:1 late:1 appeal:1 information:1 ed:1 thomas:1 match:1 image:1 release:1 photo:1 arrival:1 paper:1 correspondent:1 say:3 two:1 men:2 buy:1 ferry:1 ticket:1 leave:1 continue:1 journey:1 europe:1 syrian:1 refugee:1 medium:1 report:1 nine:1 carry:1 seven:1 die:1 friday:1 night:1 huge:1 manhunt:1 launch:1 one:2 main:1 large:1 belgium:2 bear:1 national:1 salah:1 abdeslam:4 drive:1 tell:3 lawyer:2 dress:1 big:1 jacket:1 may:1 belt:2 carine:1 couquelet:1 tv:1 raise:1 question:1 include:1 possibility:1 suppose:1 blow:1 second:1 thought:1 friend:1 abc:1 news:1 speak:1 skype:1 hide:1 brussels:1 desperately:1 try:1 get:1 syria:1 catch:1 european:1 authority:1 hunt:1 member:1 watch:1 unhappy:1 detonate:1 |@ngramms paris_attack:2 suicide_bomber:2 french_police:4 enter_greek:1 island_leros:1 ahmad_al:1 islamic_state:1 kill_people:1 paris_november:1 thomas_match:1 image_release:1 ticket_leave:1 leros_continue:1 syrian_refugee:1 french_medium:1 carry_attack:1 friday_night:1 french_national:1 salah_abdeslam:1 men_drive:1 abdeslam_belgium:1 suicide_belt:1 raise_question:1 abdeslam_suppose:1 blow_paris:1 european_authority:1 detonate_suicide:1 |
cypriot.financial.crisis.40 | Cyprus to ease citizenship rules for EU bailout losers Cyprus is to relax its citizenship rules for foreign investors who lost at least 3m euros (£2.5m) under an EU bailout deal. President Nicos Anastasiades said new measures, mostly affecting the Russian business community, would be approved at a cabinet meeting on Monday. Russians have billions of euros in Cypriot bank deposits. Investors were angered when it emerged they would lose up to 60% of their savings under the terms of the bailout. In order to secure the 10bn euros, agreed by the EU and IMF, Cyprus was forced to wind up one major bank and write-off of a large portion of secured debt and uninsured deposits in the largest bank, Bank of Cyprus. Speaking at a Russian business conference in the coastal resort of Limassol, President Anastasiades said the new measures would "mitigate to some extent the damage" Russian investors had endured. Cyprus has been a member of the EU since 2004. It sealed an EU bailout last month to save it from bankruptcy. President Anastasiades said foreign investors who held deposits prior to 15 March, and who lost at least 3m euros would be eligible to apply for Cypriot citizenship. Cyprus's existing "citizenship by investment" programme will also be revised to reduce the amount of investment required to be eligible from 10m euros to 3m. The president said he would also drop requirements for citizenship applicants to keep 15m euros in Cypriot banks for five years, saying they would be allowed immediate access to their money. "These decisions will be deployed in a fast-track manner," President Anastasiades said. The Cypriot economy is worth about 18bn euros, which accounts for less than 0.2% of the eurozone total. | cypriot.financial.crisis.40 |@lemmatized cyprus:6 ease:1 citizenship:5 rule:2 eu:5 bailout:4 loser:1 relax:1 foreign:2 investor:4 lose:3 least:2 euro:7 deal:1 president:5 nicos:1 anastasiades:4 say:6 new:2 measure:2 mostly:1 affect:1 russian:4 business:2 community:1 would:6 approve:1 cabinet:1 meeting:1 monday:1 billion:1 cypriot:4 bank:5 deposit:3 angered:1 emerge:1 saving:1 term:1 order:1 secure:1 agree:1 imf:1 force:1 wind:1 one:1 major:1 write:1 large:2 portion:1 secured:1 debt:1 uninsured:1 speaking:1 conference:1 coastal:1 resort:1 limassol:1 mitigate:1 extent:1 damage:1 endure:1 member:1 since:1 seal:1 last:1 month:1 save:1 bankruptcy:1 hold:1 prior:1 march:1 eligible:2 apply:1 exist:1 investment:2 programme:1 also:2 revise:1 reduce:1 amount:1 require:1 drop:1 requirement:1 applicant:1 keep:1 five:1 year:1 allow:1 immediate:1 access:1 money:1 decision:1 deploy:1 fast:1 track:1 manner:1 economy:1 worth:1 account:1 less:1 eurozone:1 total:1 |@ngramms citizenship_rule:2 eu_bailout:2 bailout_deal:1 russian_business:2 billion_euro:1 cypriot_bank:2 term_bailout:1 eu_imf:1 cyprus_force:1 bank_cyprus:1 cypriot_citizenship:1 exist_citizenship:1 amount_investment:1 deploy_fast:1 |
malaysia.airlines.flight.14 | Jet Fell Into Ocean With All Lost, Premier Says PEARCE AIR FORCE BASE, Australia — A British satellite company has solved one crucial aspect of the mystery surrounding the Malaysia Airlines flight that disappeared on March 8, using a complex mathematical process to determine that it ended its journey in the middle of the southern Indian Ocean. Guided by a principle of physics called the Doppler effect, the company, Inmarsat, analyzed tiny shifts in the frequency of the plane's signals to infer the plane's flight path and likely final location. The method had never before been used to investigate an air disaster, officials said. The first definitive news of the fate of the Boeing 777 jet brought heartbreak to the families of those on board as Malaysia's prime minister, Najib Razak, announced on Monday that no one is believed to have survived the flight. "This is a remote location, far from any possible landing sites," a somber Mr. Najib said. "It is therefore with deep sadness and regret that I must inform you that, according to this new data, Flight MH370 ended in the southern Indian Ocean." Mr. Najib appeared eager to bring some finality to the families of the passengers, who had complained for more than two weeks about the incomplete and sometimes contradictory information they were getting. Two-thirds of the plane's passengers were Chinese citizens, and the flight was bound for Beijing when it took off from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, after midnight on March 8. But many furious Chinese relatives and friends of passengers refused to believe it, wailing with anguish and screaming that the Malaysians were lying and hiding what they knew. "The Malaysian government is not telling the truth," said one woman among the relatives of passengers who gathered at the Lido Hotel in Beijing to wait for news of the flight. "All governments are corrupt. The Malaysian government is hiding something." The announcement did little to solve the deeper mystery of the plane's disappearance, shedding no light on why someone with detailed knowledge of the plane's navigation and flight systems diverted it radically from its course. Investigators said they have looked into the backgrounds of the 239 people on board, including the two pilots and the crew, and have so far found no answers to that central question. However long expected, the news that the jet was lost came as a body blow, dashing the hopes that many had clung to with increasing desperation that somehow the plane had been hijacked and taken to some obscure spot where the passengers could still be alive. A few people in the hotel ballroom in Beijing collapsed and were put on wheeled stretchers and taken to the parking lot, which was full of police cars and ambulances. Inside the hotel, police officers in navy-blue uniforms stood guard every few feet and blocked scores of jostling journalists from entering the ballroom. Several women emerged sobbing so hard that knots of friends and family had to help them walk to the elevators. "We demand the truth," said a young woman in a red ski jacket. "The Chinese government should step up and find out the truth for us. Nobody cares about us. Nobody cares about the lives of our family." Continue reading the main story Li Chengpeng, a popular Chinese social critic, gave voice to the deep skepticism held by many Chinese of the official announcement. He posted a message for the seven million followers of his microblog, calling Mr. Najib's news conference staged theater. "Just now, they were not actually publicizing the truth but were merely giving a show of publicizing the truth," he wrote. "It looks like there are traces of rehearsal. Politicians are shameless! Keep investigating!" Where Objects Have Been Spotted In the search for Malaysia Airlines Flight 370. 5,000 FT. Possible flight paths AUSTRALIA INDIAN OCEAN WATER DEPTH 10,000 FT. Perth 10,000 FT. Areas previously searched Albany 15,000 FT. 10,000 FT. OBJECTS SPOTTED March 16 (satellite image) 122 objects spotted by a satellite on March 23 March 18 (satellite image) March 24 (by a Chinese plane) More maps Debris Tracking Sorting Out the Clues Reconstructing the Path The Malaysian prime minister based his announcement on a new analysis of satellite signal data that ruled out any chance that the plane had flown north, toward land, from its last known position on March 8. It had to have flown south, the analysis found, and by the time of the last recorded signal, it would have been nearly out of fuel over a rough, deep ocean, more than a thousand miles from anywhere it could have landed safely. The search focused more tightly on that area on Monday after an Australian military search plane spotted several floating objects that could be debris from the plane, and ships raced to investigate. On Tuesday, officials said, search flights were called off because of bad weather. One of the assumptions in the analysis was that for the final few hours of the plane's flight at least, it was cruising at a fairly constant speed and direction, suggesting that it was being flown by the autopilot system. Experts said that was certainly possible. A former Boeing instructor pilot, who spoke on the condition that he not be identified, said, " 'Heading select mode' is dumb," referring to one way the plane's autopilot could be set. "It doesn't know anything except, 'maintain this heading.' " The instructor, who has trained Boeing pilots at airlines around the world, said that in that mode, the plane would probably fly on steadily until one engine's fuel supply was exhausted, but that after that, the plane would probably soon become destabilized and crash without a skilled human pilot at the controls. The plane took off with ample fuel to fly to Beijing, more than 2,500 miles from Kuala Lumpur, with a margin of safety. Based on that, Malaysian officials have estimated that it could have stayed in the air until about a half-hour after the last satellite signal was recorded. The floating objects were spotted on Monday about 1,500 miles southwest of Perth, Australia, by the crew of a P-3 Orion surveillance plane from the Royal Australian Air Force. An Australian naval survey ship, the Success, was directed to try to find and recover the objects, the Australian authorities said. A Chinese military aircraft also reported a possible sighting of floating objects in the search area, but that sighting was at a different location and was much more tentative. The search for the aircraft's fuselage, and other bulky parts of the jet that probably sank to the bottom of the ocean, is likely to be focused within a limited distance from the suspected flight path. But the search for floating debris is likely to be widespread. Continue reading the main story Tracking Flight 370 The sequence of events known by the authorities, in local times. Mar. 8, 2014 12:41 a.m. A Boeing 777-200 operated by Malaysia Airlines leaves Kuala Lumpur bound for Beijing with 227 passengers, of which two-thirds are Chinese, and a Malaysian crew of 12. By By Continue reading the main story Erik van Sebille, an oceanographer at the University of New South Wales who studies and has conducted experiments on the flow of water around Australia, said the conditions of the southern Indian Ocean are "extremely hostile," with large waves, swirling currents and winds that are among the strongest on the planet. Currents in the southern Indian Ocean could scatter debris, he said. "The whole ocean down there is like a pinball machine," Dr. van Sebille said. "It is difficult to track or predict where water goes, or do what is really important now, which is to backtrack where water came from." Finding the plane's flight recorders, or black boxes, will be crucial to determining what may have caused the plane's disappearance. The devices are designed to transmit signals to help searchers locate them, but searchers have only about two weeks left to find them before the devices' batteries run out. The United States Pacific Command said Monday that it would move a Towed Pinger Locator System, capable of locating a black box to a depth of 20,000 feet, into the region. On Tuesday morning, relatives and friends of many of the 153 Chinese passengers gathered again at the Lido, some carrying protest banners. Their aim was to take buses to the Malaysian Embassy and demand answers. But before noon, police officers told the protesters that the Malaysian ambassador would come to the Lido to talk to them and urged them not to go to the embassy, according to people on the scene. |

premier.league.68 | BBC renews Match of the Day deal The BBC has agreed a new deal to broadcast Premier League highlights until the end of the 2015-16 season. The current deal had been scheduled to expire at the end of next season but a three-year extension has been signed. The rights cover the Saturday evening Match of the Day programme, the Sunday morning repeat, MOTD2 on Sunday evenings and other evenings when Premier League fixtures justify a show. The programmes will be available on the BBC's iPlayer from midnight on Mondays Premier League chief executive, Richard Scudamore, said: "The free-to-air highlights are extremely important to the broadcast reach of the Premier League; allowing the competition and our clubs to be seen by the maximum possible number of fans across the country. "The BBC has done a fantastic job for fans of Premier League clubs by providing quality coverage and analysis across their programmes." BBC director of sport Barbara Slater added: "We've seen audiences for MOTD grow in recent years and the programme remains one of the BBC's best loved and most iconic brands. "The new contract will see MOTD celebrate its 50th birthday." The BBC retained the rights with a bid of £179.7m. The first ever Match of the Day was broadcast on 22 August 1964 and top-flight rights have switched between BBC and ITV since then. Premier League highlights returned to Match of the Day in 2004-05. The show is hosted by former England striker Gary Lineker, with Alan Hansen, Mark Lawrenson and Alan Shearer among the regular pundits. | premier.league.68 |@lemmatized bbc:8 renews:1 match:4 day:4 deal:3 agree:1 new:2 broadcast:3 premier:6 league:6 highlight:3 end:2 season:2 current:1 schedule:1 expire:1 next:1 three:1 year:2 extension:1 sign:1 right:3 cover:1 saturday:1 evening:3 programme:4 sunday:2 morning:1 repeat:1 fixture:1 justify:1 show:2 available:1 iplayer:1 midnight:1 monday:1 chief:1 executive:1 richard:1 scudamore:1 say:1 free:1 air:1 extremely:1 important:1 reach:1 allow:1 competition:1 club:2 see:3 maximum:1 possible:1 number:1 fan:2 across:2 country:1 fantastic:1 job:1 provide:1 quality:1 coverage:1 analysis:1 director:1 sport:1 barbara:1 slater:1 add:1 audience:1 motd:2 grow:1 recent:1 remain:1 one:1 best:1 love:1 iconic:1 brand:1 contract:1 celebrate:1 birthday:1 retain:1 bid:1 first:1 ever:1 august:1 top:1 flight:1 switch:1 itv:1 since:1 return:1 host:1 former:1 england:1 striker:1 gary:1 lineker:1 alan:2 hansen:1 mark:1 lawrenson:1 shearer:1 among:1 regular:1 pundit:1 |@ngramms match_day:4 premier_league:6 end_season:1 current_deal:1 saturday_evening:1 sunday_evening:1 chief_executive:1 richard_scudamore:1 quality_coverage:1 show_host:1 |
premier.league.142 | Liverpool sign Andy Carroll from Newcastle Liverpool have signed striker Andy Carroll from Newcastle for a club record fee of about £35m. "Andy Carroll has completed his move from Newcastle to Liverpool and has signed a five-and-a-half-year-deal," read a Liverpool statement. The 22-year-old will wear the number nine shirt vacated by Fernando Torres, who has sealed his move to Chelsea. Carroll has scored 11 goals in 19 league games this season and made his full England debut in November. Newcastle confirmed that Carroll's transfer request was "reluctantly accepted" on Monday afternoon, and his move was finalised shortly before the transfer deadline (2300 GMT). Liverpool have also signed Ajax striker Luis Suarez for a £22.7m fee, but recouped about £50m of their transfer-day spending by selling Fernando Torres to Chelsea. Academy graduate Carroll played a key role in the Magpies' promotion from the Championship last season and had continued to shine since being handed the club's number nine shirt during the summer. Newcastle boss Alan Pardew had repeatedly stated that the player was not for sale but the club's owner Mike Ashley and managing director Derek Llambias have tried to bring a financial realism to the club during their time at the helm. Former Magpies and England striker Alan Shearer told BBC Radio 5 live fans would be "angry and disappointed" that Carroll was sold, but the huge transfer fee would have been difficult to turn down. "I'm staggered just like the rest of Newcastle fans," said Shearer. "It's an incredible amount of money, you have to say that, for a guy who's scored - what is it? - 14 goals and had half a season in the Premier League, albeit having done very well and the potential is there. "He's a very young guy, he's been in trouble once or twice before and that would be the major concern." "It's all right selling your best player, but not getting anyone in to replace him is staggering. "People are saying that Liverpool have sold Torres, but they have got two guys in [Luis Suarez and Carroll] for over £50m to replace him. I just hope Newcastle invest some of the £35m in new players at the end of the season. "He is a huge loss, he has carried Newcastle at times this season. There are not many players like him." Carroll was reported in Tuesday's Daily Star to have sent texts to Steve Wraith, editor of the Toon Talk fanzine, claiming he felt he had being forced out of the club. And Shearer added: "I wouldn't be surprised if he did not want to leave. I know he handed in a transfer request late in the day but I am not sure he wanted to leave." Carroll is currently out of action with a torn thigh muscle which has kept him sidelined for the last five games and which prompted his visit to a specialist in Sweden on Friday. Liverpool also signed Coventry City's England Under-17 midfielder Conor Thomas. The 17 year-old joins on loan for the rest of the season with a view to a permanent move. | premier.league.142 |@lemmatized liverpool:7 sign:5 andy:3 carroll:10 newcastle:8 striker:3 club:5 record:1 fee:3 complete:1 move:4 five:2 half:2 year:3 deal:1 read:1 statement:1 old:2 wear:1 number:2 nine:2 shirt:2 vacate:1 fernando:2 torres:3 seal:1 chelsea:2 score:2 goal:2 league:2 game:2 season:6 make:1 full:1 england:3 debut:1 november:1 confirm:1 transfer:5 request:2 reluctantly:1 accept:1 monday:1 afternoon:1 finalise:1 shortly:1 deadline:1 gmt:1 also:2 ajax:1 luis:2 suarez:2 recoup:1 day:2 spending:1 sell:4 academy:1 graduate:1 play:1 key:1 role:1 magpie:2 promotion:1 championship:1 last:2 continue:1 shine:1 since:1 hand:2 summer:1 bos:1 alan:2 pardew:1 repeatedly:1 state:1 player:4 sale:1 owner:1 mike:1 ashley:1 manage:1 director:1 derek:1 llambias:1 try:1 bring:1 financial:1 realism:1 time:2 helm:1 former:1 shearer:3 tell:1 bbc:1 radio:1 live:1 fan:2 would:3 angry:1 disappointed:1 huge:2 difficult:1 turn:1 stagger:2 like:2 rest:2 say:3 incredible:1 amount:1 money:1 guy:3 premier:1 albeit:1 well:1 potential:1 young:1 trouble:1 twice:1 major:1 concern:1 right:1 best:1 get:2 anyone:1 replace:2 people:1 two:1 hope:1 invest:1 new:1 end:1 loss:1 carry:1 many:1 report:1 tuesday:1 daily:1 star:1 send:1 text:1 steve:1 wraith:1 editor:1 toon:1 talk:1 fanzine:1 claim:1 felt:1 force:1 add:1 surprise:1 want:2 leave:2 know:1 late:1 sure:1 currently:1 action:1 torn:1 thigh:1 muscle:1 keep:1 sideline:1 prompt:1 visit:1 specialist:1 sweden:1 friday:1 coventry:1 city:1 midfielder:1 conor:1 thomas:1 join:1 loan:1 view:1 permanent:1 |@ngramms liverpool_sign:3 club_record:1 complete_move:1 score_goal:2 league_game:1 make_full:1 transfer_request:2 monday_afternoon:1 summer_newcastle:1 club_owner:1 manage_director:1 radio_live:1 newcastle_fan:1 amount_money:1 half_season:1 premier_league:1 end_season:1 report_tuesday:1 late_day:1 |
malaysia.airlines.flight.83 | Flight MH370: Images of ocean debris Search teams hunting for missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 have spotted hundreds of objects floating in the southern Indian Ocean. A number of satellites and plane crews have detected possible debris off the coast of Australia in the last two weeks. Teams are now scouring a new area more than 1,000km (600 miles) further north than the previous search zone. So far, none of these sightings has been related to the missing plane. Here is what we know about the objects seen. Location of debris sightings Australian officials released images last week showing two whitish objects on or just under the surface of the ocean. They were spotted by satellite on 16 March, but not released until days later because it had taken time to analyse them, Australian Air Commodore John McGarry said. Australia's Defence Imagery and Geospatial Organisation, which carried out the analysis, said the larger of the objects could measure up to 24m (79ft) long. "The indication to me is of objects that are a reasonable size and probably awash with water, moving up and down over the surface,'' said John Young, general manager of the emergency response division of Amsa. Mr Young added that the debris was spotted along a busy shipping route and could be containers that had fallen off cargo vessels. However, the larger object appeared to be longer than a container, he added. On Saturday 22 March, China released a satellite image showing an object near to the area already being searched. The grainy image was released by China's State Administration of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense. The Xinhua state news agency said the image was taken at about 04:00 GMT on 18 March and showed objects about 120km "south by west" from the site of possible debris shown in the satellite images from 16 March. The image was taken by the Gaofen-1 high-resolution optical Earth observation satellite of China's National Space Administration. 3. French satellite detects objects on 21 March Then, a day later, on Sunday 23 March, France's foreign ministry said data from a French satellite showed possible debris located about 930km (575 miles) north of where the objects reported by China and Australia. Radar echoes had picked up several objects about 2,300km (1,430 miles) from Perth on 21 March, a statement added. The data was passed on to Australian authorities in the form of "satellite-generated radar echoes" rather than images. Radar works by sending out radio waves or microwaves and listening for echoes that bounce back. Malaysian officials later confirmed they had received a further set of images from French satellites, this time captured by cameras. These images were taken on 23 March and have been relayed to the Australian authorities coordinating the search. 4. Chinese plane spots objects on 24 March On 24 March, Chinese search teams reported seeing two "relatively big" objects with "many white smaller ones scattered within a radius of several kilometres", according to Xinhua news agency. "When two of our IL-76 planes were searching the relevant suspected sea area, one of the planes photographed white, square floating objects," Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Hong Lei said. "At present we are unable to confirm whether the floating objects are related to the missing passenger jet." The crew of the Ilyushin IL-76 aircraft had given the co-ordinates of the objects to the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (Amsa) as well as China's ice-breaker Xue Long (Snow Dragon), which is heading to the area, Xinhua news agency said. 5. Australian planes spot objects on 24 March The same day, Australian prime minister Tony Abbott confirmed that an Australian search crew on board a P-3 Orion plane had also spotted two objects - the first "a grey or green circular object" and the second "an orange rectangular object". Later, Australian crews confirmed they had seen four objects - one rectangular and one circular slightly below the ocean and two cylindrical objects, with one measuring up to two metres in length. Australian navy supply ship HMAS Success is on the scene and is trying to locate and recover the objects in order to assess whether they are connected to the missing Malaysian Airlines jet. 6. French satellite detects 122 objects on 23 March On 26 March Malaysian authorities confirmed images from 23 March showed 122 objects - with some up to 23m (75ft) in length. They were described as the first to suggest a debris field rather than just isolated objects and the most credible lead so far. The potential debris was detected by a French satellite in an area of around 400 sq km (160 sq miles), about 2,557km from Perth. The objects ranged in size from 1m (3ft) to 23m (75ft) long, with some said to be "bright", possibly indicating solid material, Malaysia's acting Transport Minister Hishammuddin Hussein said. 7. Thai satellite spots 300 objects on 24 March A day after the material was detected by the French satellite, a Thai satellite spotted 300 objects of varying sizes. The images, taken by the Thaichote satellite on 24 March, show objects about 200km (120 miles) from the French satellite sighting. Anond Snidvongs, of Thailand's Geo-Informatics and Space Technology Development Agency, told the BBC the objects ranged from 2m to 15m (6.5ft to 50ft) in size. But he said he could not confirm they were debris from the plane. Further satellite imagery from the Thai authorities showing potential debris was passed on to Malaysian authorities on Friday 28 March, Acting Malaysian Transport Minister Hishammuddin Hussein said. 8. Japanese satellite identifies 10 objects on 26 March Japan's Cabinet Intelligence and Research Office confirmed on 28 March that its satellite had spotted 10 objects located about 2,500km (1,560 miles) southwest of Perth on 26 March. This would place them in the same general area as the 122 objects spotted by the French satellite on Sunday 23 March. The objects were up to 8m (26ft) in length and 4m (13ft) wide, officials said. 9. Five planes spot objects on 28 March A number of search planes spotted objects on 28 March in a new search area established the same day. A Royal New Zealand Air Force Orion first spotted "a number of objects white or light in colour and a fishing buoy", Australian authorities said. An Australian plane then went to relocate the items and spotted "two blue/grey rectangular objects". Three other planes reported similar sightings. However, the sightings needed confirmation by ship, which is not expected until later. Acting Malaysian Transport Minister Hishammuddin Hussein said that the fact that the search area had moved did not discount the earlier satellite images of possible debris further south. "Because of ocean drift, this new search area could still be consistent with the potential objects identified by various satellite images over the past week," Mr Hishammuddin said. | malaysia.airlines.flight.83 |@lemmatized flight:2 image:14 ocean:5 debris:11 search:11 team:3 hunt:1 miss:4 malaysia:2 airline:2 spot:14 hundred:1 object:40 float:2 southern:1 indian:1 number:3 satellite:22 plane:12 crew:4 detect:4 possible:4 coast:1 australia:3 last:2 two:8 week:3 scour:1 new:4 area:9 mile:6 far:5 north:2 previous:1 zone:1 none:1 sighting:5 relate:2 know:1 see:3 location:1 australian:12 official:3 release:4 show:8 whitish:1 surface:2 march:23 day:5 later:5 take:5 time:2 analyse:1 air:2 commodore:1 john:2 mcgarry:1 say:15 defence:1 imagery:2 geospatial:1 organisation:1 carry:1 analysis:1 large:2 could:4 measure:2 long:4 indication:1 reasonable:1 size:4 probably:1 awash:1 water:1 move:2 young:2 general:2 manager:1 emergency:1 response:1 division:1 amsa:2 mr:2 add:3 along:1 busy:1 ship:3 route:1 container:2 fall:1 cargo:1 vessel:1 however:2 appear:1 saturday:1 china:5 near:1 already:1 grainy:1 state:2 administration:2 science:1 technology:2 industry:1 national:2 defense:1 xinhua:3 news:3 agency:4 gmt:1 south:2 west:1 site:1 gaofen:1 high:1 resolution:1 optical:1 earth:1 observation:1 space:2 french:8 detects:1 sunday:2 france:1 foreign:2 ministry:2 data:2 locate:3 report:3 radar:3 echo:3 pick:1 several:2 perth:3 statement:1 pass:2 authority:7 form:1 generate:1 rather:2 work:1 send:1 radio:1 wave:1 microwave:1 listen:1 bounce:1 back:1 malaysian:6 confirm:7 receive:1 set:1 capture:1 camera:1 relay:1 coordinate:1 chinese:3 relatively:1 big:1 many:1 white:3 small:1 one:5 scatter:1 within:1 radius:1 kilometre:1 accord:1 il:2 relevant:1 suspect:1 sea:1 photograph:1 square:1 spokesman:1 hong:1 lei:1 present:1 unable:1 whether:2 floating:1 passenger:1 jet:2 ilyushin:1 aircraft:1 give:1 co:1 ordinate:1 maritime:1 safety:1 well:1 ice:1 breaker:1 xue:1 snow:1 dragon:1 head:1 prime:1 minister:4 tony:1 abbott:1 board:1 p:1 orion:2 also:1 first:3 grey:2 green:1 circular:2 second:1 orange:1 rectangular:3 four:1 slightly:1 cylindrical:1 metre:1 length:3 navy:1 supply:1 hmas:1 success:1 scene:1 try:1 recover:1 order:1 assess:1 connect:1 describe:1 suggest:1 field:1 isolate:1 credible:1 lead:1 potential:3 around:1 sq:2 km:1 range:2 bright:1 possibly:1 indicate:1 solid:1 material:2 act:3 transport:3 hishammuddin:4 hussein:3 thai:3 vary:1 thaichote:1 anond:1 snidvongs:1 thailand:1 geo:1 informatics:1 development:1 tell:1 bbc:1 friday:1 japanese:1 identifies:1 japan:1 cabinet:1 intelligence:1 research:1 office:1 southwest:1 would:1 place:1 wide:1 five:1 establish:1 royal:1 zealand:1 force:1 light:1 colour:1 fishing:1 buoy:1 go:1 relocate:1 item:1 blue:1 three:1 similar:1 need:1 confirmation:1 expect:1 fact:1 discount:1 early:1 drift:1 still:1 consistent:1 identify:1 various:1 past:1 |@ngramms search_team:2 miss_malaysia_airline_flight:1 southern_indian_ocean:1 plane_crew:1 coast_australia:1 area_mile:1 search_zone:1 miss_plane:1 australian_official:1 release_image:1 spot_satellite:1 australian_air:1 australia_defence:1 large_object:2 john_young:1 general_manager:1 emergency_response:1 debris_spot:1 saturday_march:1 satellite_image:4 show_object:4 image_release:1 gmt_march:1 south_west:1 high_resolution:1 china_national:1 french_satellite:8 object_march:3 sunday_march:2 foreign_ministry:2 mile_north:1 china_australia:1 mile_perth:1 statement_add:1 australian_authority:2 work_send:1 malaysian_official:1 capture_camera:1 chinese_plane:1 spot_object:7 march_march:1 big_object:1 plane_search:1 miss_passenger:1 object_australian:1 safety_authority:1 australian_plane:1 march_day:2 prime_minister:1 abbott_confirm:1 australian_search:1 crew_board:1 miss_malaysian:1 airline_jet:1 malaysian_authority:2 image_march:1 debris_field:1 potential_debris:2 sq_km:1 sq_mile:1 malaysia_act:1 transport_minister:3 satellite_march:1 debris_plane:1 act_malaysian:2 research_office:1 march_satellite:1 locate_mile:1 perth_march:1 general_area:1 object_spot:1 search_plane:1 air_force:1 number_object:1 white_light:1 plane_report:1 similar_sighting:1 search_area:1 week_mr:1 |
malaysia.airlines.flight.223 | Missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 puzzle raises legal problems KUALA LUMPUR: The lack of any evidence indicating what caused flight MH370's disappearance raises a legal conundrum that is expected to force Malaysia Airlines into out-of-court settlements with angry next-of-kin, aviation law experts say. More than two months since MH370 disappeared, no wreckage has been found to even confirm a crash, let alone apportion blame. But relatives of the 239 people on board can still pursue Malaysia Airlines because under international aviation law it is an airline's responsibility to prove it was not to blame for an accident. "On the surface, (Malaysia Airlines) is responsible," said Jeremy Joseph, a Malaysian attorney specialising in transport law. The "burden of proof" rests on the national carrier to clear its name, he added. Under International Civil Aviation Organisation rules, next-of-kin in an air crash are entitled to an automatic minimum of about $US175,000 ($189,342) per passenger, regardless of fault, payable by an airline's insurance company. But Malaysia Airlines is also vulnerable to civil lawsuits for potentially greater damages by hundreds of relatives already infuriated over the lack of information. The Beijing-bound plane disappeared on March 8 and is believed to have crashed in the Indian Ocean. Theories on what happened include a terrorist act, rogue pilot action, or mechanical problems. No significant legal moves have yet been made as families closely monitor an immensely difficult search in vast ocean depths that has so far found nothing. "When there is no cause identified, it is hard to see how the airline has or has not shown the absence of fault," said Alan Tan, a professor of aviation law at the National University of Singapore. The size of any damages would depend on where lawsuits are filed. Next-of-kin can file in the country where an airline is based, where tickets were purchased, where the passengers were headed or where they lived. Since most passengers were from China or Malaysia, most cases could be filed in the two countries, where courts are more conservative in awarding damages than in countries such as the United States. Damages are typically based on the lost lifetime earnings of a victim and thus could total in the hundreds of millions for all passengers combined. "In the US, settlements usually are in the $1 million-$3 million range. For Malaysians or Chinese, salaries are lower, and hence, recoveries will be lower," said Paul Stephen Dempsey, director of the Institute of Air and Space Law at Canada's McGill University. A US law firm is already planning a "multi-million-dollar" lawsuit against Malaysia Airlines and aircraft maker Boeing, on behalf of an Indonesian passenger's family. But legal experts said few cases will likely end up in court. They expect undisclosed out-of-court settlements between families and Malaysia Airlines and its lead insurer, German giant Allianz. "Because of its unprecedented nature, the courts are going to look at (MH370) very carefully. That is something the airline will try to avoid unless settlement expectations from the victims families are perceived by Malaysia Airlines as unreasonable," said Joseph. In the case of Air France flight 447, which crashed in the Atlantic Ocean with 228 people aboard in June 2009, the airline's insurers made compensation payments to relatives. A combination of mechanical failure and pilot error were eventually blamed. Malaysia Airlines has begun making some payouts to families but has declined to reveal details. Lawsuits must be filed within two years of an accident. Families are holding off for now as they await news on the search. "If today someone cut off your limb, can you buy your limb back?" Yik-Kiong Hue, an MH370 next-of-kin, said in an email to AFP. | malaysia.airlines.flight.223 |@lemmatized miss:1 malaysia:10 airline:15 flight:3 puzzle:1 raise:2 legal:4 problem:2 kuala:1 lumpur:1 lack:2 evidence:1 indicate:1 cause:2 disappearance:1 conundrum:1 expect:2 force:1 court:5 settlement:4 angry:1 next:4 kin:4 aviation:4 law:6 expert:2 say:7 two:3 month:1 since:2 disappear:2 wreckage:1 find:1 even:1 confirm:1 crash:4 let:1 alone:1 apportion:1 blame:3 relative:3 people:2 board:1 still:1 pursue:1 international:2 responsibility:1 prove:1 accident:2 surface:1 responsible:1 jeremy:1 joseph:2 malaysian:2 attorney:1 specialising:1 transport:1 burden:1 proof:1 rest:1 national:2 carrier:1 clear:1 name:1 add:1 civil:2 organisation:1 rule:1 air:3 entitle:1 automatic:1 minimum:1 per:1 passenger:5 regardless:1 fault:2 payable:1 insurance:1 company:1 also:1 vulnerable:1 lawsuit:4 potentially:1 great:1 damage:4 hundred:2 already:2 infuriate:1 information:1 beijing:1 bound:1 plane:1 march:1 believe:1 indian:1 ocean:3 theory:1 happen:1 include:1 terrorist:1 act:1 rogue:1 pilot:2 action:1 mechanical:2 significant:1 move:1 yet:1 make:3 family:6 closely:1 monitor:1 immensely:1 difficult:1 search:2 vast:1 depth:1 far:1 found:1 nothing:1 identify:1 hard:1 see:1 show:1 absence:1 alan:1 tan:1 professor:1 university:2 singapore:1 size:1 would:1 depend:1 file:4 country:3 base:2 ticket:1 purchase:1 head:1 live:1 china:1 case:3 could:2 conservative:1 award:1 united:1 state:1 typically:1 lost:1 lifetime:1 earnings:1 victim:2 thus:1 total:1 million:4 combine:1 u:2 usually:1 range:1 chinese:1 salary:1 low:2 hence:1 recovery:1 paul:1 stephen:1 dempsey:1 director:1 institute:1 space:1 canada:1 mcgill:1 firm:1 plan:1 multi:1 dollar:1 aircraft:1 maker:1 boeing:1 behalf:1 indonesian:1 likely:1 end:1 undisclosed:1 lead:1 insurer:2 german:1 giant:1 allianz:1 unprecedented:1 nature:1 go:1 look:1 carefully:1 something:1 try:1 avoid:1 unless:1 expectation:1 perceive:1 unreasonable:1 france:1 atlantic:1 aboard:1 june:1 compensation:1 payment:1 combination:1 failure:1 error:1 eventually:1 begin:1 payouts:1 decline:1 reveal:1 detail:1 must:1 within:1 year:1 hold:1 await:1 news:1 today:1 someone:1 cut:1 limb:2 buy:1 back:1 yik:1 kiong:1 hue:1 email:1 afp:1 |@ngramms miss_malaysia_airline_flight:1 kuala_lumpur:1 flight_disappearance:1 malaysia_airline:8 aviation_law:3 wreckage_find:1 confirm_crash:1 people_board:1 civil_aviation:1 insurance_company:1 beijing_bound:1 disappear_march:1 indian_ocean:1 happen_include:1 terrorist_act:1 difficult_search:1 airline_base:1 passenger_china:1 damage_country:1 united_state:1 hundred_million:1 million_million:1 range_malaysian:1 air_space:1 law_firm:1 passenger_family:1 victim_family:1 flight_crash:1 people_aboard:1 compensation_payment:1 eventually_blame:1 |
