-“The physical key will be with us for years to come,” said Mark Baker , director of engineering for ZF TRW, a manufacturer of automobile systems.
-Too many problems exist — like a slow data network or a dead phone battery — to rely on smartphones alone, experts say.
-Tesla is not alone in offering those sorts of options; BMW, General Motors and Volvo, among other manufacturers, offer apps that perform similar functions.
-That’s because customers are purchasing cars with so-called PEPS, or Passive Entry, Passive Start capabilities.
-The car cannot be locked if the key is left in the car .
-In Tesla’s case, one needs to open the app and then enter a PIN to start the car or unlock the doors.
-Touching the door’s handle unlocks it, and the car is started by pushing a button.

-But in a reptilian version of the children’s song, “The Cat Came Back,” the lizards wouldn’t stay away .
-“ Lizards kept showing up in the territory that had just been scoured for lizards ,” he said.
-Block it completely, Dr. Leal said, and “after a day they just stop moving.” They are normally quiet at night .
-Then the researchers created caps with pieces of Ping-Pong ball , and attached them with surgical glue and cork as a cushion, to the heads of the anoles to interfere with polarized light that might reach an organ in the brain called the parietal eye.

-Few capitalized on these events as quickly as P. T. Barnum .
-The era’s undisputed master showman announced that he would pay $500 for Davis’s dress .
-The possibility that it would soon appear at the Manhattan headquarters of Barnum’s entertainment empire set the country abuzz.
-Located on lower Broadway , it was said to be either the greatest collection of diversions in the greatest city on earth, or an “ill-looking, ungainly, rambling structure,” containing a “paltry collection of preposterous things.”
-Barnum’s American Museum was then the nation’s most popular tourist destination.
-Barnum called his Davis display “ The Belle of Richmond .”
-Landing to “ cheers and uncontrollable laughter ,” the statue was then promptly hanged, just as the song suggested.
-The cause of the fire remained a mystery, but many assumed arson .
-His suffering became a passion play of the Lost Cause , the nearly religious cult of grievance that convinced subsequent generations of the Union’s intent not only to defeat the Confederacy but to emasculate it.
-While the crowd jeered , a bearded mannequin dressed in women’s attire was hurled into the street, its skirt acting briefly as a parachute.
-Barnum surely would have admired the puffing necessary to transform an archtraitor into an American hero .
-Recent debates over relics of the Confederacy — in South Carolina, the United States Capitol, and elsewhere — only underscore how successful 150 years of revisionism can be.
-The commanding poses struck by Davis in statues across the country are anxious correctives to depictions that troubled his followers long after the war’s end.
-“The American people,” Barnum famously said, “like to be fooled.”
-If Jefferson Davis manages to survive current efforts to remove him from several of his pedestals , his old antagonist would likely know why.

-The city of Jingdezhen produced the most beautiful of these objects: bowls, jars, vases and other items created in vast quantities for the imperial court.
-In the early 18th century , under his orders, an odd couple of proto-scientists — an urbane mathematician and a young, eccentric alchemist — finally figured out how to make porcelain in Dresden.
-A few years later, William Cookworthy , a mild-mannered Quaker apothecary living in Devon, noticed that the clay in a nearby Cornish hill resembled the kaolin described in newly published letters from China.

-Augustus set Tschirnhaus up with a character named Johann Friedrich ­Böttger, an apothecary’s apprentice who came to public attention when he was observed turning silver into gold .
-Mercurial in both the figurative and literal sense (he ingested a lot of the substance), Böttger’s tempestuous, arrogant personality made him a trying collaborator, but when Augustus ordered him to help ­Tschirnhaus discover how to make porcelain , he complied.
-Together, the men succeeded , whereupon the long-suffering Tschirnhaus promptly died.
-De Waal juxtaposes Cookworthy’s small-time ­efforts to fire the stuff with the enterprises of Josiah Wedgwood, the potentate of English pottery, who sent a factotum all the way to a mountain in the Cherokee Nation in the Carolinas to retrieve five tons of white clay.

-By contrast, Cookworthy’s first successful piece, a cider tankard , is porcelain that “comes into being through walking and noticing and picking things up and feeling texture, through listening intently, openly, to men working by the side of the road.”
-Not long afterward, while out for a walk, Cookworthy stopped to ask mine workers about the local clay they were using to patch the cracks in a furnace.
-“The White Road” eventually becomes a brief against standardized production and industrialization — the opposite of what de Waal loves in hand-potting — and the price paid for it by workers.
-Once precious, porcelain is now everywhere , not only in your kitchen (and bathroom), but also in your mouth, if your teeth are crowned, and used as insulation in electrical devices.
-This culminates in a grim chapter on Allach porcelain, made by the Nazis , using slave labor, in Dachau.

-College is the main institution that can offset this trend by turning unskilled individuals into skilled ones.
-The College Board reports that published tuition and fees at a typical private, nonprofit college, adjusted for overall inflation, have increased by 70 percent over the last 20 years.
-Colleges have increasingly followed this practice by raising published prices and offering more financial aid based on a family’s resources.
-Businesses of all sorts have an incentive to charge different prices to different consumers based on their willingness and ability to pay .

-But he has also said that European sanctions against Russia for its aggression in Ukraine are a “dead-end policy.”
-But they have to be renewed periodically and all members of the European Union — including Greece — have to agree to extend them.
-And, last year, a Russian bank lent money to the far-right National Front party in France, which is gaining popularity in that country and says it would want France to leave the eurozone if it came to power.
-It would be a public relations triumph for Mr. Putin if Mr. Tsipras publicly criticized the sanctions while he was in Moscow.

-“It’s a compressed life span,” said Itamar Harel, a postdoctoral researcher at Stanford University .
-But researchers are finding that this tiny fish ages much as we do, only at a much faster pace .
-Dr. Harel and his colleagues recently developed a set of tools to probe the biology of the turquoise killifish.
-Even when hobbyists pamper them in aquariums, turquoise killifish survive only a few months , making them among the shortest-lived vertebrates on Earth.
-Using a new technique called Crispr , he created molecular scissors that could snip out any piece of killifish DNA and replace it with a different one.
-They sequenced the entire genome of the turquoise killifish, identifying a number of genes known to influence aging in other species, including mice and humans .
-To test his tools, Dr. Harel and his colleagues tinkered with a gene called TERT, which protects DNA from wear and tear .
-Telomeres , like the plastic tips at the ends of shoelaces, keep DNA from fraying.
-As cells divide, their telomeres get shorter , and this change probably plays a role in aging.
-LJUBLJANA, Slovenia —  Slovenia began erecting a razor-wire fence at its border with Croatia on Wednesday to stem the inflow of migrants, as winter closes in and countries to the north tighten their own border controls.
-A convoy of army trucks carrying barbed wire and construction equipment arrived in the border town of Veliki Obrez at dawn on Wednesday.
-Since Oct. 17, when Hungary closed its border with Croatia and redirected the flow, more than 180,000 migrants from Africa, the Middle East and Asia have entered Slovenia, a nation of two million people.
-As a result, the Slovenian prime minister, Miro Cerar , said that it was very likely that many of the 30,000 migrants who were traveling north from Greece could become stranded in Slovenia, which has limited room to accommodate them.

-HOPE, Ark. —  Mike Huckabee, who excited evangelical voters in his first presidential race in 2008 and retains much of their good will, announced on Tuesday that he would again seek the Republican nomination despite a crowded field of rivals for his natural base in the party.
-A former Southern Baptist pastor and Arkansas governor, Mr. Huckabee is returning in hopes of once more dominating among social conservatives, but he is acutely aware he needs broader support to avoid the snares of last time, when he ran dry of money and failed to appeal much beyond the South.

-The biggest question in voters’ minds about Mr. Huckabee, 59 , who seemed to add a final punctuation mark to his political career by skipping the 2012 presidential race, may be why he has returned to the fray.
-Although American politics is full of stories of the ultimate triumph of also-rans, from Richard M. Nixon to Ronald Reagan, Mr. Huckabee would seem to face greater obstacles than during his first presidential campaign, when he battled only a couple of rivals for the party’s conservative base .
-Now half a dozen or more declared and likely candidates appeal to social conservatives, and Mr. Huckabee’s party has moved further rightward.
-He is vulnerable to criticism for positions he once held in favor of the Common Core education standards and a cap-and-trade program to fight global warming.
-“It is a completely different environment than 2008, with different issues and with different candidates,” said Bob Vander Plaats, who was chairman of Mr. Huckabee’s 2008 Iowa campaign and is uncommitted this time.
-Mr. Huckabee’s upset victory in the Iowa caucuses seven years ago, powered by evangelicals and home-school families , has been burnished to a political legend in the state that holds the first nominating contest.
-Recent polls show Iowa Republicans still put Mr. Huckabee among their top preferences, although he has been surpassed by more prominent party figures including Scott Walker and Mr. Bush .
-To an unusual degree, strategists for Mr. Huckabee are counting on his likability — a folksy charm that a national audience got to know during his six years as a Fox News host — to break through the pack of competitors.
-Mr. Huckabee raised just over $16 million in 2008, and despite victories in eight nominating contests saw his campaign expire for lack of funds to advertise in major states like Florida. The rules of campaign finance have changed in the new “super PAC” era, when as few as one or two super-wealthy supporters can fund an outside, parallel campaign.

-And the number is rising quickly as the federal government provides grants for cameras, said Lindsay Miller, a senior research associate at the group.
-There are no definitive figures , but officials say that most police forces do not use body cameras, or use them on a very limited basis.
-Yet despite the growing use of police video cameras, evidence is mixed about what effect they are having on police behavior.
-Experts say that cameras probably change for the better how the police and the public treat each other, but they do not know how much .
-And the fact that one viral video after another surfaces, showing officers treating civilians harshly , demonstrates the limits of that change.
-Dashboard cameras are far more prevalent — more so among state police and highway patrol forces than among local police forces — but experts say they know of no national tally of those, either.

-In folklore, the figure of the changeling often involves an enchanted piece of wood placed in a crib by fairies that a parent finds instead of her baby.
-The wood might become ill and die, or the fairies might skip the wood altogether and leave a fairy-baby instead, carting the little human off for other purposes.
-The wood might become ill and die, or the fairies might skip the wood altogether and leave a fairy-baby instead, carting the little human off for other purposes.
-Either way, there’s a particular kind of terror inherent in the situation: to look in a crib expecting to see one’s cooing infant and instead find something inert and unknown.
-Maurice Sendak’s picture book “ Outside Over There ” captures the horror with a rich gorgeousness, where the replacement baby is made of ice, and glows milky and terrifying and odd on the page.

-Cobb’s image is not a fixer-upper; it’s a Superfund site .
-And consider: These incidents are recounted in Charles Leerhsen ’s new biography, “Ty Cobb: A Terrible Beauty,” a book largely intended to rehabilitate its subject’s reputation.
-He went into the stands and severely assaulted a heckler who was missing seven fingers , having lost them in a workplace accident, even as surrounding spectators yelled, “He has no hands!”

-­Leerhsen cites an interview he conducted with Ron Shelton , the film’s director.
-Asked about the veracity of a scene in which Cobb fails in an attempt to rape a young woman at a Nevada casino , Shelton said: “That is something that Al and I came up with during the shoot.

-“There’s an illusion of legality,” said Scott Albrecht, a special agent in the D.E.A.’s Milwaukee district office, who supervised the investigation of Mr. Tian after the agents linked him to packages shipped to an address here.
-Law enforcement officials hope that information gathered from Mr. Tian will provide a window into the drug’s hazy international underworld, where manufacturers readily tweak chemicals used to make spice and other so-called designer drugs, staying one step ahead of federal regulators scrambling to identify and outlaw them.
-“There’s an illusion of legality,” said Scott Albrecht, a special agent in the D.E.A.’s Milwaukee district office, who supervised the investigation of Mr. Tian after the agents linked him to packages shipped to an address here.
-China’s Ministry of Public Security had initiated its own investigation into Mr. Tian, his associates and relevant companies.
-The informant, who has not been identified, told investigators that about 70 percent of the spice sold in the United States was made from chemicals originating in Mr. Tian’s Chinese laboratory.
-Lawyers for Mr. Tian declined to comment on the case before his trial, scheduled to begin in federal court in Milwaukee in July .
-“The D.E.A. and M.P.S. continue to exchange information in this joint investigation into the manufacturing and trafficking of synthetic cannabinoid compounds and other dangerous drugs,” the statement said.
-But Mr. Tian traveled to Los Angeles after a major customer of his became a confidential informant for the D.E.A.
-However, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention does not track national data for spice or other synthetic drugs, including those popularly known as bath salts or flakka .
-Intermittent reports from several states suggest that at least 1,000 Americans have died since 2009 after smoking spice.
-Although the use of spice has decreased in recent years, according to some surveys, the drug continues to be sold by street dealers, as well as openly on the Internet and at smoke shops and other retailers, as potpourri or incense with brand names like Scooby Snax and Black Diamond .

-At a neon-drenched Leviticus, Lucious, still reeling from his estranged son’s pointed emasculation of his music production, coolly sends Hakeem a rap call-to-arms via his Gutter Life Records protégé, Freda Gatz. The missive’s brutally coy hook — “Daddy’s little girl / You’re just daddy’s little girl” — inflames Hakeem as much as it ennobles Gatz, who has been groomed into something between surrogate child and unknowing executor of the barely-hidden id of the man who killed her father in prison.

-Jamal and Cookie continue meeting furtively in studios at night, the two building a saccharine sound that is less progressive or scene-changing than their wildly satisfied grins let on.
-But the clandestine collaboration is endearing, if mostly because mother and son are bonding again despite the constant surveillance of Lucious and Thirsty.
-Jamal baits Cookie and Lucious into coming to a studio session, hoping that the two might meld their angelic flutes and brutish percussion into one electronic monster.
-The rap battle between Freda and Hakeem was unambiguously presented as the episode’s cathartic zenith, and according to the performance logic undergirding the differences in street and studio rap, it was laughably obvious Freda would bring the carnage.

-But there are some potentially valuable drugs we’ll never get drug companies to invest in — those that cannot be patented .
-When Benjamin Roin, assistant professor of technological innovation, entrepreneurship, and strategic management at M.I.T., did so, he discovered that drug companies discard many potentially good ideas because they’re unpatentable .
-Bringing a drug to market is expensive .
-Without F.D.A. approval, a drug cannot be marketed.
-Without F.D.A. approval , a drug cannot be marketed.
-The expense of prescription drugs has come to the forefront in the presidential campaign with proposals by Bernie Sanders and Mrs. Clinton to rein in drug prices.
-The expense of prescription drugs has come to the forefront in the presidential campaign with proposals by Bernie Sanders and Mrs. Clinton to rein in drug prices.
-Drug manufacturers say that they need to recoup the high cost of drug development by charging high prices during the period they hold effective monopolies.
-A recent estimate, though contested, put the price of developing a drug from scratch as high as $2.6 billion .
-Without regulatory constraints, results from such an investment could be used by anyone to develop and market drugs.
-it may market the drug without competition .
-And that’s why pharmaceutical in no vators pursue leads that can be patented.
-Typically, a drug reaches the market with about 13 years left on its original patent, though in some cases it can be extended longer.
-Though many people are shocked by the high prices of some prescription drugs — like Gilead Sciences’ Sovaldi, a new and effective treatment for hepatitis C that can cost $84,000 per treatment — they’re the inducement for innovation .
-During the granted period of market exclusivity, pharmaceutical manufacturers can price drugs higher than they could if there were competition from firms marketing the same molecule.
-Profits made during their period of market exclusivity are, in large part, why new drugs exist, though an argument could be made that the rewards far outstrip development costs.
-Nevertheless, few companies will sink hundreds of millions of dollars into even a potentially lifesaving idea without the promise of a return on investment , nor should we reasonably expect them to.
-By law, patents can be denied for ideas that may be good, but are not novel or are obvious .
-It means that even potentially great drugs might not come to market because they were disclosed in the past — so they’re now not novel — or because they are a natural extension of existing knowledge — so they’re now obvious.
-We don’t want to provide patent protection for profit-increasing activities that do not benefit patients, like “me too” drugs — drugs that are only trivially different from existing ones .
-It’s a broader system intended to encourage innovation , which it does, while at the same time permitting individuals and firms to exploit obvious and old ideas freely, which is generally a valuable protection.

-We don’t want to provide patent protection for profit-increasing activities that do not benefit patients , like “me too” drugs — drugs that are only trivially different from existing ones.
-When it comes to drugs, some of those obvious, old ideas that cannot be patented have not been clinically tested , as required for F.D.A. approval.
-That takes money, which nobody will invest without a patent .
-When it comes to drugs, some of those obvious, old ideas that cannot be patented have not been clinically tested, as required for F.D.A. approval.
-In a paper published in the Texas Law Review, Mr. Roin documents many examples of patent invalidation on these grounds — importantly, even for ideas that had never been developed into drugs and that still required clinical trials for F.D.A. approval.
-It’s a Catch-22 that ends up excluding potentially valuable drugs from ever even being considered for development.
-Mr. Roin, the M.I.T. professor, describes another approach: to provide a period of market exclusivity — long enough to motivate investment in clinical trials — to any organization addressing an unmet medical need with a drug that isn’t patentable.

-FRANKFURT — Anshu Jain, the co-chief executive of Deutsche Bank , chuckled when he was asked on Monday whether the United States had become inhospitable to foreign banks.
-Mr. Jain and the bank’s other co-chief executive, Jürgen Fitschen , insisted on Monday that they are not retreating from the idea of a universal bank that offers a full range of banking services to individuals and business worldwide.
-That was the lowest share since Dealogic began keeping track in 1995 .
-And they reaffirmed their determination to be a force on Wall Street .
-In the first quarter, European banks accounted for 30 percent of global investment banking revenue, according to the data provider Dealogic.
-But since the financial crisis, European investment banks have steadily lost market share to their United States rivals.
-“If anything you would have to say this is a muddling through,” said Mr. Smith , who has  written about Deutsche Bank’s strategy.
-Mr. Smith pointed out that the name of the reorganization plan, Strategy 2020 , means that even if Deutsche Bank meets all its goals, it will still have been 12 years since the beginning of the financial crisis “before they get to some kind of equilibrium.”
-Investors clearly shared Mr. Smith’s pessimism .
-Deutsche Bank shares sank 4.6 percent on Monday in Frankfurt trading.

-Meanwhile, aggressive law enforcement authorities last week extracted a $2.5 billion penalty from Deutsche Bank for misconduct related to an interest rate rigging scandal.
-The penalty, as well as criticism from regulators who said the bank failed to recognize signs of misconduct , damaged the reputation of the bank as well as Mr. Jain, who was head of Deutsche Bank’s investment bank operations in London, where most of the mischief took place.
-Regulators around the world, but especially in the United States , are demanding that all banks reduce risk.
-Deutsche Bank was particularly vulnerable because of its large exposure to businesses that can be lucrative in good times but toxic in bad, like derivatives contracts .
-The penalty, as well as criticism from regulators who said the bank failed to recognize signs of misconduct, damaged the reputation of the bank as well as Mr. Jain , who was head of Deutsche Bank’s investment bank operations in London, where most of the mischief took place.
-The bank will aim for a 10 percent return on capital, down from a previous target of 12 percent and a far cry from the 25 percent return that Deutsche Bank sought to achieve before the financial crisis.
-In addition, the bank said it aimed to cut costs by 3.5 billion euros , or about $3.8 billion, a year.

-The bank will aim for a 10 percent return on capital, down from a previous target of 12 percent and a far cry from the 25 percent return that Deutsche Bank sought to achieve before the financial crisis.
-But Mr. Jain argued that Deutsche Bank needed to be a force on Wall Street to serve blue-chip German companies that almost always have large operations in the United States.
-But critics would say the bank, trapped in its image of itself as Germany’s beachhead in the financial world, is still trying to do too much.
-Revenue from investment banking rose 15 percent, to €4.7 billion .
-But Mr. Jain argued that Deutsche Bank needed to be a force on Wall Street to serve blue-chip German companies that almost always have large operations in the United States.
-Operating profit for the unit fell by more than half, to €643 million , after subtracting a portion of the penalty paid in the rate-fixing scandal.
-It is a great pity that as important a country as Turkey should continue to object as strongly as it does to what is by now so clearly the verdict of history, particularly after President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s unprecedented and powerful offer of condolences last year to the victims’ grandchildren.
-Confronted by the continuing and largely ignored persecution of Catholics and other Christians in the Middle East, it is no surprise that as forthright and courageous a pope as Francis would set aside diplomatic nicety and call genocide what it is: genocide.

-It was the second time in four weeks that the Treasury had imposed sanctions on North Korea, reflecting concerns about its efforts to improve its nuclear weapons and missile capabilities despite United Nations prohibitions.
-She became a fierce, pioneering player and has assumed as many vital roles as a coach and futurist as anyone in women’s soccer in the United States.
-Her current job, as technical director for the American women’s national teams , is to find the next Mia Hamm or Abby Wambach and keep the United States in its customary spot among the best teams in the world.
-The United States trails only Germany in the FIFA world rankings, but the Americans have not won a Women’s World Cup since 1999 .

-Heinrichs is trying to keep the Americans at the forefront at a time when a number of European girls are playing primarily against boys to develop their technical skills and are turning professional as young as 14 .
-Heinrichs was the first female coach of the women’s national team and the first female player elected to the National Soccer Hall of Fame. She is convinced that American determination, fitness, hustle and competitiveness must be broadened with accelerated development of technical skill if the United States is to keep pace with teams like Germany, France and Japan, the defending World Cup champion.

-While it is necessary for girls to have an environment in which they can feel comfortable and progress at their own rate, Heinrichs said, she sees an unintended consequence of Title IX: Fewer top-level girls seem to be honing their skills against boys today than when she and Hamm and Wambach developed into elite players. “It’s important because in Europe, they’re all playing up, and their 12- to 16-year-olds are playing against boys,” Heinrichs said.
-“If more players and more club coaches saw the value in having their players in the most challenging environment that she could have on a daily basis, they would see how much faster she would grow.” Title IX, the federal law that prohibits discrimination based on gender, has been applied so effectively to sports over the past four decades that female soccer players in the United States have widespread access to their own leagues from a young age.

-Trump actually launched his campaign on June 16 with a message of polarization, saying: “When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best.

-But that is a misperception; no solid data support it, and the data that do exist negate it .
-And then Trump insulted John McCain, saying he was only a war hero because he got captured , adding, “I like people that weren’t captured, O.K.?”
-As CNN reported, “ Trump, meanwhile, received four student deferments and one medical deferment to avoid serving in the Vietnam War.”
-And then Trump insulted John McCain, saying he was only a war hero because he got captured, adding, “I like people that weren’t captured, O.K.?” McCain spent five and a half years as a P.O.W. in Vietnam and was repeatedly tortured and had his bones broken.
-At a Trump town hall event, the first questioner began: “ We got a problem in this country. It’s called Muslims. We know our current president is one.
-Carson stated, “I would not advocate that we put a Muslim in charge of this nation.” So a whole faith community gets delegitimized and another opportunity for someone to courageously stand up for what’s decent is squandered.
-Trump could have let the man ask his question and then correct his racist nonsense, without blocking his free speech, which is exactly what McCain did in a similar situation .
-Instead he tweeted: “ Christians need support in our country (and around the world), their religious liberty is at stake! Obama has been horrible, I will be great.”
-Instead he tweeted: “Christians need support in our country (and around the world), their religious liberty is at stake! Obama has been horrible, I will be great.” And then, like clockwork, Ben Carson saw Trump blurring another civic redline and leapfrogged him.
-Senator Mark Warner, Democrat of Virginia , said in a statement on Wednesday that “the massive new number of employees’ fingerprints that was breached is shocking.”
-He called for “ lifetime identity protection coverage ” for the affected employees and contractors.
-But that assumes there was a financial motive to the theft; officials say it seems more likely that it was a national security motive .
-Government officials have not been able to explain publicly why it took more than a year to discover that information was leaving its systems at a tremendous rate.
-Senator Mark Warner, Democrat of Virginia, said in a statement on Wednesday that “the massive new number of employees’ fingerprints that was breached is shocking.”
-During Mr. Xi’s visit to Washington, he and Mr. Obama are expected to announce, at a minimum, that they are working on a set of rules for cyberspace that would amount to a first effort at a digital arms control agreement .
-But that would not cover traditional espionage , which both sides conduct against each other.
-So the theft of personnel files , which the administration has never publicly blamed on China, would not be covered.
-In fact, the director of national intelligence, James R. Clapper Jr ., said over the summer that if the United States had the opportunity to steal that much data about an adversary, it would probably try to do it.
-And testifying to Congress alongside Admiral Rogers recently, he pushed back at members of Congress who called the breach at O.P.M. an “attack.” Instead, he suggested, it was ordinary espionage.

-The last pitchers to get to 300 strikeouts in a season were Randy Johnson and Curt Schilling, who did it in 2002 as teammates on the Arizona Diamondbacks.
-The last Dodger to get to 300 was, not surprisingly, Sandy Koufax, who did it in 1963, 1965 and 1966 .

-I came of drinking age as the craft beer revolution was taking off in this country.
-But spring is the season of unrealistic hopes, so I can fantasize how I’d stock my ideal concession.
-And we can’t neglect good old American lager , the beer that made Milwaukee, St. Louis and so many other brewing centers famous.
-My ballpark concession would absolutely require a couple of good lagers , even if this style has been denatured by big brewers, who have used adjuncts to malted barley, like rice and corn, to create so banal a product it can only be enjoyed icy cold, bottle to forehead in the brutal heat.

-Aside from an initial distaste for diving into the style that epitomized industrial brewing , many early craft brewers had other reasons for avoiding lagers, one of the two major forms of beer, along with ales.
-Minimalist lagers, in general, are more difficult to produce than fruity , complex ales.
-Our solution was to include golden and amber lagers, equivalent to German styles like Helles and Dortmunder, while excluding beers labeled pilsner.

-Defining “ American lager” was difficult.
-We also tried, not entirely successfully, to exclude lagers that used cereal adjuncts in the industrial style.
-The bandwidth of lagers is rather narrow , but they have their refreshing role to play.

-But the expansion also amounts to an open admission that the United States’ main legacy in Afghanistan — the creation of nationalized police and army forces numbering more than 350,000 members — is failing under pressure even before any final American military withdrawal.

-While the Americans had long told the Afghan government to respect the 30,000 cap for the force, at least two Afghan officials said that discussions were underway and that the American military had shown interest in finding a way to fund the program’s expansion, which is believed to cost more than the force’s current $120 million annual budget.
-The militia expansion plan is a reversal for President Ashraf Ghani , who had long talked about the importance of solidifying “the state monopoly over the use of force” in a country still deeply scarred by its civil war.
-We do not think the A.L.P. has worked — especially in the north , where they have become the extension of local interest groups.”
-But European members of the NATO coalition have expressed concern about the expansion, officials said.
-“The fear is still there that the A.L.P. becomes the arms of local strongmen .
-Reached for comment, a United States military official said that Afghan police officials had not formally approached the American military command to discuss expanding the Afghan Local Police forces, which the official described as “important.”
-And Franz-Michael Mellbin , the European Union’s special representative to Afghanistan, said that even successful reform of the Afghan Local Police, or A.L.P., would not be enough to justify its expansion.
-The Afghan Local Police were established by American commanders as a low-cost auxiliary force trained by the United States Special Forces .
-Several assessments, the most comprehensive of them by the International Crisis Group , have concluded that the A.L.P. “has not improved security in many places and even exacerbated the conflict in many districts.”
-But even when units have been under direct American supervision , some have committed abuses.
-The widespread nature of the problem has prompted Mr. Ghani to order an immediate “ personnel asset inventory ,” official said.
-Some officials fear the militia expansion amounts to a political payoff to these strongmen, who have often used A.L.P. units for their personal business.
-Thousands of men who had once been disarmed by government campaigns costing hundreds of millions of dollars are now being rearmed.
-The design is also being rolled out at a time when factional strongmen and elements of the former government in Kabul have mounted pressure on Mr. Ghani’s government, accusing him of exclusionary politics.

-It’s the chapters about Mr. Hamid’s own life and his meditations on Pakistan ’s tumultuous recent history that command attention — and call out for a volume of their own.
-One moment he is lamenting the hazards of life in Pakistan, where death can come in the form of militant terror attacks and American drone strikes, and where one can be killed for “being liberal, for being mystical, for being in politics, the army or the police, or for simply being in the wrong place at the wrong time.”

-Before 1983, six randomized controlled trials involving 2,467 men were conducted.
-N one were explicit studies of the recommended diet (and none involved women), but all explored the relationship between dietary fat, cholesterol and mortality.
-None were explicit studies of the recommended diet (and none involved women), but all explored the relationship between dietary fat, cholesterol and mortality .
-Five of them were secondary prevention trials — meaning that they involved only men with known problems already.
-And in all of them, there was no significant difference among them in the rate of death from coronary heart disease .
-The study did show that cholesterol levels went down more in the groups that ate low-fat diets.
-Mean cholesterol went down 13 percent in the intervention groups, but it went down 7 percent in the control groups.

-Twelve met the researchers’ criteria for inclusion in the analysis, and seven of them controlled for background diet.
-About 70 percent of people are thought to be “hyporesponders” to dietary cholesterol.
-No, but they got closer to changing on Thursday, when a government committee urged repeal of the guideline that Americans limit their cholesterol intake to 300 milligrams a day , saying, “Cholesterol is not a nutrient of concern for overconsumption.”
-I’m sure this will come as a surprise to a vast majority of Americans , who for decades have been watching their cholesterol intake religiously.

-I wrote here at The Upshot not long ago about how a growing body of epidemiologic data was pointing out that low-salt diets might actually be unhealthy.
-Those on the low-sodium diet had significantly more hospital admissions .
-A 2008 study randomly assigned patients with congestive heart failure to either normal or low-sodium diets.
-The “number needed to treat” for a normal-sodium diet above a low-sodium diet to prevent a hospital admission in this population was six — meaning that for every six people who are moved from a low-sodium diet to a normal diet, one hospital admission would be prevented.
-Eight trials involving more than 7,200 participants looked at whether advising patients to cut down on salt, or reducing sodium intake, affected outcomes.
-None of the trials , including ones involving people with both normal and high blood pressure, showed a reduction in all-cause mortality.
-Eight trials involving more than 7,200 participants looked at whether advising patients to cut down on salt, or reducing sodium intake, affected outcomes.
-Only one trial even showed an effect on death from cardiovascular causes, like heart attack or stroke.
-It was conducted on residents of an assisted-living facility who had high blood pressure — hardly representative of the population as a whole, which is what dietary guidelines are supposed to cover.
-So, as the guidelines have recommended cutting down on meat, especially red meat, this meant that many people began to increase their consumption of carbohydrates .

-So, as the guidelines have recommended cutting down on meat, especially red meat, this meant that many people began to increase their consumption of carbohydrates .
-Interestingly, the new dietary recommendations may acknowledge this as well, dropping the recommendation to limit overall fat consumption in favor of a more refined recommendation to limit only saturated fat .
-The committee is also bending a bit on salt, putting less emphasis on the 1,500-milligram daily limit on sodium for special populations, in light of the mounting evidence that too little sodium may be as bad as too much, if not worse.
-It is frustrating enough when we over-read the results of epidemiologic studies and make the mistake of believing that correlation is the same as causation.
-It’s maddening, however, when we ignore the results of randomized controlled trials , which can prove causation, to continue down the wrong path.
-I understand people’s frustration at the continuing shifts in nutrition recommendations .
-That’s disappointing not only because it reduces people’s faith in science as a whole, but also because it may have cost some people better health, or potentially even their lives.

-But although there are occasional, unprintable mishearings that make me blush, a vast majority do not admit any simple Freudian interpretation.
-In almost all of my mishearings, however, there is a similar overall sound, a similar acoustic gestalt , linking what is said and what is heard.
-Syntax is always preserved, but this does not help; mishearings are likely to capsize meaning, to overwhelm it with phonologically similar but meaningless or absurd sound forms, even though the general form of a sentence is preserved.

-Was Freud entirely wrong then about slips and mishearings? Of course not .
-And yet there is often a sort of style or wit — a “ dash ”— in these instantaneous inventions; they reflect, to some extent, one’s own interests and experiences, and I rather enjoy them.

-With more than a decade of hindsight, the theories supporting the case against Microsoft have all but fallen apart, and the pursuit of the company that makes Windows may suggest a reason for skepticism about this fight against Google: The tech marketplace is fluid and unpredictable .
-“In the Microsoft case, if they’d just waited a while, the problems they thought they saw would have disappeared because technology, consumer behavior and the market demand changed enough to correct those problems,” said Geoffrey A. Manne, executive director of the International Center for Law and Economics , a policy research organization that has received funding from technology companies including, in the past, Google.

-In a 2013 law review article comparing the antitrust pursuit against Google to the Microsoft case, Mr. Manne was more succinct: “Microsoft’s market position was unassailable ... until it wasn’t.”
-The rise of mobile devices and the prevalence of apps could make the traditional search engine less central.
-And if the regulators emerge victorious, they could end up constraining Google in a way that makes its services less useful to consumers — which would be a hollow victory indeed.
-The similarities in the cases against Microsoft and Google are striking .
-Microsoft once had a dominant position in the worldwide market for computer operating systems : Windows was installed on nearly 90 percent of desktop computers.
-Google’s current position in the market for web search engines looks similarly unbeatable: The company claims nine out of every 10 searches in Europe.
-In 1999 , Microsoft argued that bundling its web browser with its operating system was good for consumers who needed a way to easily get on the Internet.

-In retrospect, that looks defensible — today, every computer, tablet and smartphone ship with built-in browsers, because everyone believes they are an important aspect of the user experience of computers.

-“The analogy I like to use is, complaining that Google is lifting its own vertical search engine over other vertical search engines would be like complaining that The New York Times is not carrying The Los Angeles Times’s sports section ,” said Danny Sullivan, founder of Search Engine Land, an online publication that tracks the search industry.

-When people go to a search engine, they’re looking to search across everything. ” As Google pointed out in its response to the European filing, linking to its own services has not destroyed its rivals.
-As powerful as Microsoft looked at the time, officials missed ways in which it was vulnerable.
-For starters, they didn’t anticipate the rise of mobile devices .
-The 1999 ruling against Microsoft found there were “no products, nor are there likely to be any in the near future” that people around the world could use as “substitutes” for Windows computers.

-In 2007 , Apple released the iPhone, and soon after, Google released the Android operating system, which Samsung, HTC, Motorola and other manufacturers used to take the smartphone global and mainstream.
-The bigger threat for Google is that the web, the search company’s favored domain, has been increasingly overrun by the world of apps .

-“You had the rise of Google coming on the heels of the antitrust enforcement against Microsoft , and because of all this scrutiny, Microsoft was not as effective a competitor against Google as it could have been.”
-Noting the potential for another giant, possibly Amazon , to gain a monopoly as a result of the charges against Google, Mr. Manne adds: “I think we would see that potential again here, and that’s exactly what we don’t want.”
