A:" }, { "role": "assistant", "content": "In the 2002 film \"The Sum of All Fears,\" Russian President Alexander Nemerov was portrayed by distinguished Scottish actor Ciarán Hinds. Hinds, born in Belfast, Ireland, on February 9, 1953, has an extensive career in film, television, and theater, spanning over four decades.\n\nThroughout his career, Ciarán Hinds has acquired a reputation for playing powerful and complex characters. He gained recognition for his portrayals of the characters Julius Caesar in the television series \"Rome\" (2005-2007) and Mance Rayder in the renowned television series \"Game of Thrones\" (2011-2019). Besides these notable roles, Hinds has also appeared in a wide range of films, including \"Munich\" (2005), \"There Will Be Blood\" (2007), \"Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy\" (2011), \"Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2\" (2011), \"The Woman in Black\" (2012), \"Silence\" (2016), and \"Justice League\" (2017).\n\nIn \"The Sum of All Fears,\" Hinds portrayed Russian President Nemerov with great depth and intensity, reflecting the character's internal conflict between maintaining national pride and preventing a nuclear crisis. The film, directed by Phil Alden Robinson, was based on the best-selling novel by Tom Clancy, published in 1991, and starred Ben Affleck as Jack Ryan, Morgan Freeman as William Cabot, and James Cromwell as President Robert Fowler, among others.\n\nThe movie revolves around a younger Jack Ryan, a CIA analyst, who uncovers a terrorist plot to ignite a war between the United States and Russia by causing a nuclear explosion in Baltimore, Maryland. As tensions rise between the two nations, Ryan must convince both President Fowler and President Nemerov that neither side is responsible for the attack and that a third, hidden party is manipulating events to spark an all-out war. Hinds' portrayal of President Nemerov added depth and authenticity to the thrilling and suspenseful storyline, ultimately conveying the importance of diplomacy and communication amidst global crises and conflicts." } ]

Article: It is one of the most annoying words in the English language and it seems there is no escaping it. The word \"huh?\" is in worldwide use, a study found. Researchers discovered that languages spoken in countries from Ghana and Laos to Iceland and Italy all include \"huh?\", or something that sounds very like it. They said that while the study may sound silly, the word is an absolutely necessary part of speech. Without it and similar words, it would be impossible to show that we haven't heard or understood what had been said and this would lead to constant misunderstandings. But while other words used in the same context, such as \"sorry\" or \"what\", vary widely across languages, \"huh?\" remains unchanged. The Dutch researchers carefully studied ten languages from around the world, including Siwu, which is spoken in Ghana, and an Australian Aboriginal language, as well as Italian, Spanish, Dutch and Mandarin Chinese. They analysed tapes of recorded conversations for words that sounded like \"huh?\" and were used to request that whatever had just been said be repeated. All contained a version of \"huh?\". The word was also found in another 21 languages. While there were subtle differences in each country, all sounded basically the same. This is surprising because normally unrelated languages will use very different words to describe the same thing. For instance, the Japanese for \"dog\" is \"inu\", while the French is \"chien\". It is thought that languages around the world have developed their own version of \"huh?\" because the sound is quick and simple to form, as well as being easily understood. The researchers, said that it might seem unimportant to carry out scientific research into a word like \"huh?\" but in fact this little word is an essential tool in human communication. They also have an answer for those who claim that \"huh?\" isn't a word. They say that it qualifies because of the small differences in its pronunciation in different languages. It also can be considered a word because it's something we learn to say, rather... Question: According to researchers, the word \"huh?\" is very important in speech because of _ .

The Simba pack was ambushing wounded individual prey animals, while the Mobutu pack followed large groups of zebras and other grazers. Given the paragraph above, please answer correctly the following question: Which pack was preying more upon herds? Hint: Individuals living in large groups may be safer from attack because the predator may be confused by the large group size. As the group moves, the predator has greater difficulty targeting an individual prey animal. The zebra has been suggested by the zoologist Martin Stevens and his colleagues as an example of this. When stationary, a single zebra stands out because of its large size. To reduce the risk of attack, zebras often travel in herds. The striped patterns of all the zebras in the herd may confuse the predator, making it harder for the predator to focus in on an individual zebra. Furthermore, when moving rapidly, the zebra stripes create a confusing, flickering motion dazzle effect in the eye of the predator.\nThe answer to this question is:" }, { "role": "assistant", "content": "The Mobutu pack was preying more upon herds." } ]

Globally, the Ebola outbreak had created a sense of urgency and a great deal of concern regarding the potential for the disease to spread to other countries and continents. \n\nIn response to the growing threat, the CDC and other global health organizations had been working diligently to implement strategies aimed at controlling the outbreak at its source in West Africa. They had been collaborating with local governments and health agencies to establish proper protocols for the detection, diagnosis, and treatment of Ebola to minimize its spread. These efforts included establishing isolation and treatment centers, educating communities about the disease, and conducting contact tracing for those potentially exposed to the virus. \n\nDespite the CDC's Level 3 travel warning, it was crucial to continue sending medical personnel and aid workers to West Africa to combat the outbreak and assist affected communities.

Stevenson was such a good boxer that people wanted him to turn professional.After he had won his first gold medal, managers and famous promoters started to offer him money to fight around the world.Teofilo turned them all down.He wanted to stay in Cuba and didn't want to fight for money or fame.

The neocortex plays an important role in many complex brain functions. In some mammals, such as rats, the neocortex is relatively smooth. In other mammals, especially humans, the neocortex has many folds. The folds increase the surface area of the neocortex. The larger this area is, the greater the mental abilities of an animal.

Cyprus has been divided since 1974, with the northern part being occupied by Turkish forces and declared as the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, while the southern part is the Republic of Cyprus, an EU member state.\n\nThe division has caused considerable political, economic, and social challenges for both sides of the island, and efforts to resolve the situation have been ongoing for decades. Numerous rounds of negotiations and peace talks have been held under the auspices of the United Nations, but a long-lasting and mutually acceptable resolution has not yet been reached.\n\nSeveral key issues need to be addressed in order to achieve the reunification of Cyprus. These include the return of displaced persons, the issue of property rights of individuals affected by the division, security arrangements and the presence of foreign troops, governance structures in a reunited federal state, and the management of natural resources.\n\nIn his speech, President Christofias emphasized the importance of reunification efforts, calling for a spirit of cooperation, compromise, and mutual respect among all parties involved. He also highlighted the need for sustained and creative diplomacy, taking into account the concerns and aspirations of both Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots, as well as regional and international stakeholders.\n\nSome of the potential benefits of reunification would be the enhancement of regional security and stability, improved economic development and prosperity for all Cypriots, as well as strengthened cooperation and integration with European and international partners. The complex task of reunification will also require support for trust-building measures, the promotion of inter-communal ties and dialogues, and the implementation of confidence-building initiatives.\n\nIn conclusion, President Christofias's speech aimed to underscore the commitment of the Cypriot authorities to work towards the reunification of the divided island. Such efforts will require patience, determination, and continued engagement from all parties in order to reach a comprehensive, sustainable, and fair solution." } ]

As a well-known figure in the artistic and intellectual circles, his life influenced the works of several renowned authors.\n\nThe specific writer and intellectual in question who drew inspiration from Denham Fouts is the British author and poet Christopher Isherwood. Christopher Isherwood, born in 1904 in England, was a prolific writer and a significant figure in the British literary scene throughout the 20th century. His works include novels, plays, and screenplays, with some of the most famous being \"Goodbye to Berlin\" (which later inspired the movie \"Cabaret\"), \"A Single Man,\" and \"Christopher and His Kind.\"\n\nIn Isherwood's novel \"Down There on a Visit,\" the character of Paul is noted to be directly inspired by the charm and enigmatic personality of Denham Fouts. Isherwood and Fouts first met in 1937 and had a romantic relationship for some time, which strengthened the connection between Fouts' life and Isherwood's literary creations. In his autobiography \"Christopher and His Kind,\" Isherwood further recalls his relationship with Fouts, shedding light on how Fouts became a muse for various artists, writers, and intellectuals during his time.\n\nAs Denham Fouts inspired one of the characters in the works of Christopher Isherwood, a prominent British writer and intellectual, it can be concluded that the writer and intellectual of the asked nationality is British." } ]

Roads were shut and rail services suspended by floods in north Wales and snow is forecast across Scotland. There are currently five flood warnings in place in the north west, which forced rail services to run at a reduced speed. More than 30 properties were pumped out and a number of people rescued from vehicles in parts of North Yorkshire. The Met Office said around 1.7in (4.3cm) of rain had fallen in 24 hours in parts of Lancashire, with United Utilities saying rainfall had reached \"unprecedented levels\". Lancaster University's weather station said it has recorded its highest ever rainfall total. In the 24 hours from 09:00 GMT Wednesday the station at Hazelrigg said 73.6mm of rain had fallen - the highest level in more than 50 years since the centre started weather observations. The levels were higher than Storm Desmond in December 2015 when about 5,200 homes were flooded in Cumbria and Lancashire and 42,000 homes in the Lancaster area lost power after an electricity sub-station flooded. Storm Desmond recorded 59.7mm of rain in a 24 hour period. One lane on the M6 motorway southbound remains closed, between junctions 35 and 36 but the A6 at Galgate has been reopened. Five hundred properties mainly in Blackpool, Thornton-Cleveleys and Poulton on the Fylde coast, are without power due to the weather, Electricity North West confirmed. Rail lines that were shut between Preston and Lancaster have reopened, according to Virgin Trains, and have now resumed normal service. A number of schools were shut for the day because of the weather, including Ellel Primary School in Galgate, Moor Park Primary School in Bispham, Royal Brook Primary in Thornton-Cleveleys and Cardinal Allen High School in Fleetwood. People had to abandon their cars and homes were flooded when the River Conder in Galgate burst its banks on Wednesday evening. Lancaster resident Maggie Wild, whose cellar was flooded, said: \"[I] came home and thought it is pretty high and it is still going to rain all night so I better start moving stuff out of the way. \"It just came in faster and faster... and there came a point when we were bucketing it out and we had pumps going on it.\" She said: \"It was bucket versus river and the river won.\" She added her cooker, washer, dishwasher boiler were \"all gone\". Student Henry Wilson from Galgate said water got up to the top of his thigh - reaching the third step of the stairs in his house. He said water started seeping in the front door… but then \"flew into the house\" once it got through the back door. \"We couldn't believe how quickly it happened.\" He said it felt like a film with \"furniture floating about\". Zak Burnell said the water was waist deep in Limerick Road, Bispham, Blackpool and residents used sandbags from the nearby roadworks. Electricity North West said the weather had caused \"intermittent power cuts\" in Preston and Ulverston. The Environment Agency said its staff had been on the ground overnight and will be checking flood defences. \"Our actions have protected more than 6,000 properties,\" said Sheena Engineer, national flood duty manager. Showers 'easing' Flooding has also affected the Devonshire Road area of Blackpool, which is currently a diversion route for traffic because the Promenade is shut while tram network extension work is under way. Devonshire Road is closed between Mansfield Road and Warley Road. The A583 in Kirkham was also closed in both directions between Ribby Road and Fox Lane Ends. Lancaster City Council tweeted it has teams in the worst-hit areas, clearing debris from roads and pavements. According to BBC Weather, blustery showers will ease off later and many places will have a dry night.

These principles are intended to identify the recurrent patterns and structures present in various forms of communication used by humans and, in some cases, other species as well. Some examples of other types of language where speech sound principles have been applied include:\n\n1. Written language: Phonological analysis has been applied to the study of written languages, in which sub-lexical units correspond to characters or graphemes, rather than speech sounds. For instance, phoneme-grapheme correspondence rules are essential in understanding reading and writing systems, such as alphabetic and syllabic scripts. Research into orthographic depth and phonological processing in different writing systems is one area where phonological principles are employed.\n\n2. Tactile language: Tactile languages, such as Braille, employ phonological principles to represent speech sounds through tactile symbols. Braille is a system used by visually impaired individuals where raised dots represent letters and certain punctuation marks. Phonological analysis of Braille can reveal how its symbols encode the sub-lexical units of a given language, as well as their combinations and distributions.\n\n3. Computer-mediated communication (CMC): With the widespread use of textual communication, such as instant messaging and social media platforms, phonological principles have been applied to investigate the patterns of written language within this mode of communication. For example, researchers have studied the phonetic and phonological strategies employed by users when crafting abbreviated or altered versions of words (e.g., \"text-speak\") in SMS messaging and online platforms.\n\n4. Artificial languages: Phonological analysis can also be applied to the study of human-made languages, such as constructed languages (conlangs) or programming languages. Conlangs, like Esperanto or Klingon, have their own phonological systems, which are based on existing language sound patterns. Programming languages, on the other hand, have distinct syntactic and grammatical structures where phonological principles can be employed to study their patterns.\n\n5. Animal communication systems: Phonological analysis has been extended beyond human languages to investigate animal communication systems. Research on vocalizations of primates, birds, and marine mammals has revealed that many species exhibit basic principles of phonological organization, such as the presence of distinct units (analogous to phonemes), combinations, and distribution patterns. This work sheds light on the universality of phonological patterns and their potential evolutionary roots.\n\nIn summary, the principles of phonological analysis have been applied to various language types beyond spoken and sign languages, including written languages, tactile languages, computer-mediated communication, artificial languages, and animal communication systems. These applications demonstrate the versatility and usefulness of phonological principles in understanding a wide range of communicative systems." } ]

Here's a detailed breakdown of how the two statements relate to one another:\n\nBoth the premise and the hypothesis convey the same overall meaning, which is that understanding or perceiving a particular reason or explanation is challenging. The specific phrasing of the two statements differs, but their core meanings remain aligned. The premise uses \"it's hard to see why,\" while the hypothesis employs \"it is difficult to see why.\" These phrases essentially communicate the same idea, just through slightly different wording.\n\nIn order to analyze entailment, let's examine the individual components of the premise and hypothesis:\n\n1. The verb \"to see\" in both cases indicates an understanding, not the literal act of visual perception. In other words, the idea being expressed is that it is hard or difficult to comprehend or recognize the reason for something.\n\n2. The adjectives \"hard\" and \"difficult\" both express a sense of challenge or struggle. Although these words are not exact synonyms, they are closely related in meaning. They both convey the idea that the action or state they are describing (in this case, seeing or understanding why) is not easy or straightforward.\n\n3. The word \"why\" in both cases functions as an adverb, introducing a question related to a cause or explanation. It asks about the rationale or reason behind something, and in this case, indicates that this reason is challenging to understand or perceive.\n\nGiven these similarities and consistencies in meaning, it can be concluded that the hypothesis is entailed by the premise. Though the phrasing differs slightly between the two statements, the core meaning remains the same, which is that understanding or perceiving a particular reason or explanation is proving to be challenging. So, when considering the meaning and components of both the premise and the hypothesis, it is clear that the latter indeed follows from the former." } ]

He was soon performing around 120 concerts a year, generally to great critical acclaim, and in April 1921 reached a wider audience by performing in a cinema, New York's Capitol Theatre. Grainger commented that the huge audiences at these cinema concerts often showed greater appreciation for his playing than those at established concert venues such as Carnegie Hall and the Aeolian. In the summer of 1919 he led a course in piano technique at Chicago Musical College, the first of many such educational duties he would undertake in later years.Amid his concert and teaching duties, Grainger found time to re-score many of his works (a habit he continued throughout his life) and also to compose new pieces: his Children's March: Over the Hills and Far Away, and the orchestral version of The Power of Rome and the Christian Heart both originated in this period. He also began to develop the technique of elastic scoring, a form of flexible orchestration which enabled works to be performed by different numbers of players and instrument types, from small chamber groups up to full orchestral strength.In April 1921 Grainger moved with his mother to a large house in White Plains, New York. This was his home for the remainder of his life. From the beginning of 1922 Rose's health deteriorated sharply; she was suffering from delusions and nightmares, and became fearful that her illness would harm her son's career.

Carol has been visiting a psychoanalyst (George Rigaud) because of a string of disturbing dreams shes been having featuring her decadent neighbor, Julia Durer (Anita Strindberg). Julia's frequent, late-night parties infuriate and yet exite Carol, evoking images of wild sex-and-drug orgies.During a meeting between Edmund and Frank, they talk about their recent court cases in which Edmund asks Frank if he has been unfaithful to Carol, which Frank denies. Then a phone call is made by an anonymous woman who claims to Edmund that she has damaging information about his family. But unknown to everyone, Frank is indeed having an affair with his personal secretary Deborah whom he meets after work at her country house for some romantic tryst.Carol's dreams continue which become more complicated during scenes that appear to be dreams or hallucinations, but may be partly real. Describing her latest one to her psychoanalyst, they depict a lesbian encounter between the two women, culminating in Carol grisly stabbing the seductive Julia to death.

It is crucial to understand how the sediment initially forms before it breaks down into smaller particles. The process can be described as follows:\n\n1. Erosion of rocks or other materials through natural processes: The formation of sediment starts with the weathering and erosion of rocks and other materials. This can happen due to various natural processes, such as freeze-thaw weathering, chemical weathering, or the physical breakdown of rocks by water, ice, wind, and other natural agents. Over time, these processes break down rocks and other materials into smaller fragments, which then become sediment.\n\n2. The sediment breaks down into small particles: Once the rocks or materials have been eroded, the fragments continue to break down into even smaller particles due to the ongoing weathering and erosion processes. The resulting sediment can range in size from tiny clay particles to larger sand and gravel.\n\n3. Wind or water picks up the sediment: As the sediment particles become smaller, they become more susceptible to being picked up and transported by natural agents like wind and water, such as rivers and ocean currents.\n\n4. The sediment travels along the same route as the wind or water: When the wind or water picks up the sediment, it will carry the particles along its path, moving them from one location to another.\n\n5. The sediment is deposited at new locations by the wind or water: As the wind or water slows down or encounters obstacles, it will lose its capacity to transport the sediment, and the particles will be deposited in a new location. This process is known as sedimentation.\n\n6. The sediment is picked up again by new wind or water: In some cases, the deposited sediment may be picked up again by a new current of wind or water, following the same process as before.\n\n7. The sediment travels further: The ongoing cycle of erosion, transport, and deposition can result in sediment particles being carried great distances from their original source.\n\n8. The sediment is deposited again in a new place: Ultimately, the sediment particles will settle in a new location, where they may accumulate and eventually form new landforms, such as deltas, sand dunes, or sedimentary rocks.\n\nThese steps represent the continuous process of sediment formation, transportation, deposition, and re-transportation in various natural environments. Understanding this process is fundamental to the study of Earth's surface and geology, as well as crucial in predicting and managing geological hazards, such as landslides, flooding, and soil erosion." } ]

A Texas fertilizer plant explosion kills 15 people. A monster tornado strikes an Oklahoma suburb. A British soldier is savagely slain on a London street. Need an update on these important events? Welcome to CNN Reset, a new feature revisiting news that's been unforgettable. Here's the latest on video and online. Oklahoma twister. Science calls it an EF5. The people of Moore, Oklahoma, know it as the most powerful category of tornadoes. The twister's destruction was merciless: it struck the Plaza Towers Elementary School, killing seven children there. In all, 24 people perished, including 10 children. The human response to the catastrophe has been powerful too. Locals call it the \"Oklahoma standard\" -- \"persistence and a great positive attitude by the people to never give in,\" as University of Oklahoma football coach Bob Stoops puts it. Cleveland captivity. It was a horror worthy of Stephen King's imagination: three young women allegedly held captive in a house for roughly 10 years beginning at ages 21, 16 and 14. They were allegedly abducted off the street in a Cleveland neighborhood by the homeowner, Ariel Castro, 52, who's now facing four counts of kidnapping and three counts of rape. Alleged violence and threats made the captive women afraid to seek an escape. But one of the women -- the one who bore a child by Castro -- finally shouted for help after Castro left the house and forgot to lock a big inside door. Neighbors responded. The women and a 6-year-old girl were freed. Now tourists visit the neighborhood. And as the city seeks donations to support the women, it struggles with a dark legacy. Texas explosion. The explosion of a fertilizer plant shook the Earth like an earthquake. In fact, the blast in West, Texas, registered a 2.1 on the Richter scale, and people felt it 50 miles away. The first responders experienced a scene for which no training could ever prepare them: a mushroom-cloud fireball lay waste to 37 blocks, including a nursing home, the local high and middle school, and many houses. Fifteen people -- including 12 first responders -- were killed. Volunteer firefighter Robert Payne was blown out of his boots and knocked senseless. He woke up in intensive care wondering what happened. Now recovering from several injuries, he's thankful he's alive. As the town of 2,800 rebuilds, will it want the fertilizer plant back? The mayor doubts it. Boston Marathon bombings. Among those injured in the Boston Marathon bombings were two brothers. Paul and JP Norden have shared much in life. Now they are together in recovery: Each brother lost a right leg in the attack. As hard as the limb loss was for the brothers, equally difficult was not seeing other each for weeks as they underwent 12 surgeries in all. The siblings finally saw each other about two weeks ago for the first time since the marathon. They want the public to know their uncommon brotherhood is lifting them through an arduous recuperation. London slaying. The British soldier was well-liked by many. He was even a military recruiter and played the drum outside the Royal Palaces on behalf of his regiment, the Fusiliers. But the life of Drummer Lee Rigby, 25, came to a grisly end on a London street at the hands of a man with a meat cleaver and knife. What has shocked the world is how the alleged attacker -- Michael Adebolajo, 28, a British national of Nigerian descent -- made a video of the gory scene and spoke to the camera about the killing, saying it was \"an eye for an eye\" and \"because Muslims are dying daily.\" A total of five men have been arrested in the slaying. Now far-right activists are calling upon Muslims to leave the country. Capital calamities. The second term of President Barack Obama was supposed to be about immigration reform, gun control and the economy. Instead, it's seemingly been one scandal after another. The Justice Department secretly collected two months of telephone records from the Associated Press. Questions resurfaced about whether the administration downplayed the role of terrorism in the attack against the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya. And the IRS allegedly targeted politically conservative groups.

The person tweeting might be seeking more information or clarifying something that was previously discussed.\n\n2. \"AWW.

The nature of the surprise might be something unexpected or shocking, but the precise feeling behind it depends on the context.\n\n3. \"Oh well\": This phrase conveys a sense of disappointment or accepting an undesirable situation. It reveals that the person tweeting disapproves of or is disappointed with the situation at hand, but they understand that they cannot change it and therefore must simply accept it.\n\n4. \"we can still see each other.\": This final part of the tweet demonstrates resilience, as the person tweeting is choosing to focus on the positive aspect of the situation. It indicates that while they may not be able to change the circumstances, they and @danimercado can continue to spend time together.\n\nIn conclusion, the sentiment of the tweet is a mixture of emotions. It starts with confusion or uncertainty, moves to surprise or shock, expresses disappointment or acceptance of an unfavorable situation, and ends on a resilient and positive note. The overall sentiment could be interpreted as bittersweet, as there are both negative and optimistic emotions at play. However, without the complete context or background of the conversation, it is challenging to determine the precise emotional tone." } ]

You must generate a detailed and long answer." }, { "role": "user", "content": "Write a title for this article:\n\nThis book review originally appeared in Democracy: A Journal of Ideas, and is reprinted with permission.\n\nAs the twenty-first-century American middle class gets squeezed, with little relief in sight, liberals are wistfully remembering something about the postwar era that they had energetically forgotten. That age of suburban conformity and institutionalized sexism and racism was also a time when big business believed in government and worried about the common good, and was willing to pay for both.\n\nReminding us of that era, and documenting the engagement between the corporate class and the state during the 1940s, ’50s, and ’60s, is the most valuable contribution of The Fracturing of the American Corporate Elite by Mark Mizruchi. The University of Michigan business school professor, who has written three previous books about the practices and culture of the American corporation, offers a compelling history of how the American corporate elite reconciled itself to the New Deal, and then, in the aftermath of World War II, signed on to a vision of America in which government played a muscular and essential role in steering the economy and underwriting the well-being of the middle class.\n\nThe business heroes in this narrative are the leaders of the “moderate, pragmatic corporate elite [that] had emerged, based primarily in the largest American corporations” by the end of World War II. This elite and its views were “epitomized” by the organization whose history forms the backbone of Mizruchi’s narrative, the Committee for Economic Development (CED). Formally incorporated in 1942, the CED brought together engaged, moderate businessmen from across the country and advanced their views in the major national debates of the subsequent decades. They were an illustrious group: As of July 1945, the CED’s trustees included a senior partner at Goldman Sachs, the chairman of Coca-Cola, the president of General Electric, and the presidents of the Federal Reserve Banks of Boston and St. Louis.\n\nThe CED, in Mizruchi’s telling, thought the days of untrammeled free-market capitalism were gone, and that both private and government-led economic management would be necessary for a market economy to survive. In order to maintain the system from which their privileges derived, they believed it would be necessary to attend to the welfare of the broader population. This meant supporting a high level of employment, the alleviation of poverty, the amelioration of racial disadvantage, and the provision of sufficient purchasing power in the population to consume the goods that American business was so proficient at producing.\n\nThis was the creed of the nation’s most influential corporate leaders, a group that supplied Cabinet secretaries to both Republican and Democratic Administrations. Today, with so much of the national economic conversation consumed by the budget deficit and which middle-class entitlements need to be cut to reduce it, that platform would place you on the left wing of the Democratic Party, and no leading business organization would advocate it.\n\nMizruchi openly admires this postwar elite and argues that its decline “has played a major role in the crisis of twenty-first century American democracy.” That argument is a nice antidote to this country’s historical amnesia, particularly when it comes to relations between the private sector and the state. What is less clear is whether, as Mizruchi hopes, that productive postwar relationship among business, government, and society can be recreated today. One reason to be pessimistic is that the current arrangement, notwithstanding the author’s protestations to the contrary, is serving America’s business elites remarkably well.\n\nWe live in the era of Grover Norquist’s tax pledge, and an age when respected financiers casually describe President Obama’s unsuccessful effort to close private equity’s favorite loophole, the carried-interest provision, as comparable to Hitler’s invasion of Poland. It is thus bracing to be reminded that once upon a time, business actually advocated tax increases to fund things like infrastructure and war. Mizruchi’s account of the public debate over how to pay for the Korean War is particularly instructive. The CED advocated a $10 billion tax hike, including an increase in the tax on dividends, a charge squarely aimed at the share-owning class. After the truce in Korea, the U.S. treasury did not immediately recover. To refill the national coffers, President Eisenhower sought a six-month extension of the excess profits tax, a levy charged on the “excess profits” companies made as a result of increased defense spending. Inevitably, the excess profits tax was one of business’s least favorite measures—but even so, the CED backed Eisenhower’s proposal. As late as 1989, big business aggressively lobbied for higher taxes at critical moments. It sounds inconceivable today, but Fortune magazine welcomed George H.W. Bush to the White House with a cover story a few days before his inauguration that declared, “CEOs to Bush: Raise Taxes Now.”\n\nAnother forgotten chapter in the history of blue-chip America that Mizruchi highlights involves health-care reform. Fox News and Tea Party adherents would probably be surprised to learn that in the past half-century, America has had one President whose health-care ambitions were more radical than anything Bill Clinton proposed or Barack Obama achieved. His name was Richard Nixon, and his plan “closely mirrored” an earlier proposal advanced by the CED. Nixon’s blueprint “included a mandate that all employers provide health insurance for their employees and pay at least three-quarters of the cost, as well as a government-run system for everyone not covered by employer-based insurance.” Nixon wanted to cover dental care for children and cap the out-of-pocket cost per family at $1,500 each year, regardless of the total cost of care received.\n\nNixon’s plan, of course, was stillborn, and U.S. health care remained a mess. Mizruchi argues that during the 1980s, reform became an even greater priority for the business elite. That makes sense, he believes, because of the costs America’s inefficient health-care system imposed on the employers who often had to provide it. After all, state-supplied health care could be the businessman’s friend, as Chrysler and Caterpillar executives were quoted as saying in a front-page New York Times story from 1991. Shouldn’t American CEOs resent having to supply their workers with something their European and Canadian competitors can count on the government to provide? And shouldn’t they have energetically applauded an effort to shift that burden to Uncle Sam?\n\nSo why was big business unable to support either the Clinton or the Obama health-care reform efforts? One reason, according to a Fortune 500 CEO Mizruchi quotes, is an ideological conviction so deep it trumps the bottom line. “One [view] inside the business community is a belief that anything the government touches is bad,” the executive said. “There are many who, regardless of any pragmatic benefit to their company, are opposed in any way to government run programs, government mandated programs. It just doesn’t sit well with their philosophy.” That’s a powerful admission. One reason we give weight to the political recommendations of business leaders is their economic expertise. Just as climate scientists have special authority when it comes to the environment, businesspeople have special authority on economic policy. But if, as Mizruchi’s anonymous CEO says, they are actually just advocating their personal beliefs, one wonders whether they merit a privileged place in the national conversation.\n\nEven more interesting is Mizruchi’s argument that CEOs’ failure to support health-care reform was driven by the perverse incentives inside the bureaucracies over which they themselves preside. Mizruchi found that CEOs were ambivalent about health-care reform. But their human-resources executives were unanimous in opposing it, and they were sometimes willing to admit openly that their hostility grew out of the fear that reform would make their own jobs as administrators of corporate health-care plans redundant. If you get the joke in any Dilbert cartoon, this scenario will instantly make sense—anyone who has actually worked inside a big company knows that bureaucratic dysfunction is not the sole province of the state.\n\nMizruchi’s secret history of a time when corporate America believed in government and in paying taxes—and the riffs he adds to the more familiar tune of how business became more conservative—are assembled here in the service of a larger argument: This right-hand turn by the country’s corporate elite has been bad for business and bad for America. Mizruchi describes a business elite that has become fragmented, irrelevant, and powerless to solve the problems—like mounting national debt, decaying infrastructure, and failing schools—that, in the long-term, will hurt the vested interests of corporate America.\n\nAs Mizruchi knows, most liberals worry business is becoming too powerful in politics; his contrarian argument is that America suffers from the opposite problem—the absence of a pragmatic, united business elite at the top of national politics has left us ill-equipped to handle our pressing public concerns. It’s an iconoclastic thesis that both excites and scares him. “It is ironic that I would be writing about the postwar American corporate elite as a model for responsible leadership,” he admits. “I spent the early part of my career characterizing these people as the ‘bad guys,’ and there certainly was plenty about which to complain.”\n\nBut he doesn’t pursue the truly unexpected and uncomfortable paradox his historical study reveals. When America’s postwar corporate elites were sexist, racist company men who prized conformity above originality and were intolerant of outsiders, they were also more willing to sacrifice their immediate gain for the greater good. The postwar America of declining income inequality and a corporate elite that put the community’s interest above its own was also a closed-minded, restrictive world that the left rebelled against—hence, the 1960s. It is unpleasant to consider the possibility that the personal liberation the left fought for also liberated corporate elites to become more selfish, ultimately to the detriment of us all—but that may be part of what happened. The book sidles up to but doesn’t confront head-on the vexing notion that as the business elite became more open and meritocratic, it also became more selfish and short-termist.\n\nThis disquieting correlation is apparent in Mizruchi’s discussion of what he calls “the new chief executive officer.” He appreciates one of the realities of the lives of America’s corporate chieftains that is sometimes lost when we look only at their paychecks. Since the early 1980s—not coincidentally, the period when the book shows the corporate elite became more conservative and more skeptical of the state—CEO compensation has soared. But Mizruchi understands that these surging financial rewards came with strings attached—in this case, a loss of control over their domain, what Mizruchi calls decreased “autonomy.”\n\nIn the immediate postwar era, corporate managers held a tight grip over their firms and their own careers. Then, in the 1970s and ’80s, the capital markets began to assert themselves. Investors mounted, and won, hostile takeover bids against managers who were underperforming. Even CEOs who avoided that fate faced more assertive shareholders. Chief executives who were once kings now had bosses who could fire them. In 1982, the average CEO tenure was 9.7 years; by 2002, it had dropped to 6.8 years. But chief executives were amply compensated for their loss of autonomy; between 1978 and 2011, CEO compensation increased more than 725 percent. To understand how extraordinary that leap was, consider the fact that worker compensation grew by just 5.7 percent over those same three decades.\n\nThe rise of this new, celebrity CEO represented a profound change in corporate America—and one that was supposed to make things better. After all, those “faceless,” statesmanlike bureaucrats of the postwar era who presided over their firms with such autonomy didn’t actually own them. The rise of more active shareholders was meant to improve the performance of CEOs—and by some financial measures it did. I wish Mizruchi had made even more of his important finding that shareholder-value-driven CEOs became less civic-minded.\n\nOne reason that he doesn’t pursue these contradictions in the behavior of “the new chief executive officer” may have to do with one of the core conceits of his book, and its biggest weakness. Mizruchi insists on framing the changed relationship between U.S. business and the state as one of the declining power of the corporate elite. This is a group, he writes, that has lost its unity, its efficacy, and even its ability “to provide collective solutions to issues of concern to the business community.” Here, he is unconvincing. It is not at all clear that a business elite that has lost the ability to speak with one voice is necessarily less powerful—it is just less united and less conscientious.\n\nMizruchi is obliged to perform such excruciating mental gymnastics to present today’s corporate elite as losing out because of the way he ends his book—with a stirring call to action for the C-suite. He wants today’s CEOs to be inspired by the example of their postwar predecessors and to shoulder the burdens, including the tax burden, of a responsible business elite. “Although the window is closing, sufficient time remains for the American corporate community to assume a position of leadership and responsibility,” he concludes. “Some will claim that this plea is as utopian as Émile Durkheim’s dream of an orderly society or Karl Marx’s yearning for a communist nirvana. But the American corporate elite has provided leadership in the past. It is long past time for its members to exercise some enlightened self-interest in the present.”\n\nHere’s the rub: What if the lack of efficacy and the fracturing of the American corporate elite that Mizruchi describes suits those elites perfectly well? In social encounters, I have never met an American corporate titan who didn’t describe himself as intensely conscious of, and intensely frustrated by, the fragmentation and the collective disempowerment Mizruchi describes. This is a group of hard-working meritocrats who all feel they could solve America’s problems in a week if given the authority, and each one is astonished and angered that the President doesn’t spend more time seeking his—there are very few hers—personal opinion.\n\nBut when it comes to his day job, every American CEO is laser-focused on his own paycheck, on his company’s share price, and on whatever financial measure his investors care about. He may worry about the deficit or the state of public education over cocktails at dusk, but by day he is working hard to minimize his company’s tax bill; he may serve on presidential commissions to create American jobs, but his own job is to make his own company more efficient, which means using machines instead of people and outsourcing to reduce labor costs.\n\nMizruchi lauds those he sees as exceptional CEOs, like Starbucks chief Howard Schultz, for swimming against the self-interested tide with socially responsible practices. Yet, as an investigation by Reuters revealed, virtuous Starbucks so adroitly arbitraged the European tax system that over 14 years it paid less than £9 million in taxes in the UK. The point is not that Schultz is a hypocrite. It is that, in an age of global markets, global labor, and global capital, even the most socially minded CEO can’t afford to indulge in the enlightened behavior of the greatest generation.\n\nMizruchi hopes America will be saved by “a group of corporate officials, speaking with one voice, able to bring together politicians from both major parties.” For a boomer, asking business leaders to be more civic-minded may feel like a thrillingly rebellious idea. And it is not a bad start. But as in our last great economic transformation, the Industrial Revolution, it is naive to expect business to come to heel voluntarily.\n\nJust like the rest of us, CEOs want to be good. But all too often, the way global capitalism works requires them—if they are to serve their shareholders, keep their jobs, and, not incidentally, earn their vast paychecks—to do things that are bad for the rest of society, or at least part of it. We cannot rely on a change of heart. What we need is a change in incentives for corporate elites—new, stricter rules, more firmly imposed, for the game that they play. And putting that system in place is a job not for the elites but for the state and society—which means all of us.\n\nTitle:" }, { "role": "assistant", "content": "\"The Fracturing of the American Corporate Elite: A Historical Study of Economic Decline and Re-imagining Corporate Responsibility in the 21st Century\"" } ]

Among his best-known compositions are orchestral works including the Enigma Variations, the Pomp and Circumstance Marches, concertos for violin and cello, and two symphonies. He also composed choral works, including The Dream of Gerontius, chamber music and songs. He was appointed Master of the King's Musick in 1924.\n\nDuring the 1890s, Elgar gradually built up a reputation as a composer, chiefly of works for the great choral festivals of the English Midlands. The Black Knight (1892) and King Olaf (1896), both inspired by Longfellow, The Light of Life (1896) and Caractacus (1898) were all modestly successful, and he obtained a long-standing publisher in Novello and Co. Other works of this decade included the Serenade for Strings (1892) and Three Bavarian Dances (1897). Elgar was of enough consequence locally to recommend the young composer Samuel Coleridge-Taylor to the Three Choirs Festival for a concert piece, which helped establish the younger man's career. Elgar was catching the attention of prominent critics, but their reviews were polite rather than enthusiastic. Although he was in demand as a festival composer, he was only just getting by financially and felt unappreciated. In 1898, he said he was \"very sick at heart over music\" and hoped to find a way to succeed with a larger work. His friend August Jaeger tried to lift his spirits: \"A day's attack of the blues ... will not drive away your desire, your necessity, which is to exercise those creative faculties which a kind providence has given you. Your time of universal recognition will come.\" In 1899, that prediction suddenly came true. At the age of forty-two, Elgar produced the Enigma Variations, which were premiered in London under the baton of the eminent German conductor Hans Richter. In Elgar's own words, \"I have sketched a set of Variations on an original theme. The Variations have amused me because I've labelled them with the nicknames of my particular friends ... that is to say I've written the variations each one to represent the mood of the 'party' (the person) ... and have written what I think they would have written - if they were asses enough to compose\". He dedicated the work \"To my friends pictured within\". Probably the best known variation is \"Nimrod\", depicting Jaeger. Purely musical considerations led Elgar to omit variations depicting Arthur Sullivan and Hubert Parry, whose styles he tried but failed to incorporate in the variations. The large-scale work was received with general acclaim for its originality, charm and craftsmanship, and it established Elgar as the pre-eminent British composer of his generation. The work is formally titled Variations on an Original Theme; the word \"Enigma\" appears over the first six bars of music, which led to the familiar version of the title. The enigma is that, although there are fourteen variations on the \"original theme\", there is another overarching theme, never identified by Elgar, which he said \"runs through and over the whole set\" but is never heard. Later commentators have observed that although Elgar is today regarded as a characteristically English composer, his orchestral music and this work in particular share much with the Central European tradition typified at the time by the work of Richard Strauss. The Enigma Variations were well received in Germany and Italy, and remain to the present day a worldwide concert staple.\n\ndid critics like him?" }, { "role": "assistant", "content": "In the early stages of Sir Edward Elgar's career, critics' reception of his work was mixed. As mentioned in the provided text, during the 1890s, when he was gradually building his reputation as a composer of works for choral festivals in the English Midlands, the reviews he received from prominent critics were polite, but not overly enthusiastic. Many of them were appreciative of his musical talent and potential, but some thought that he had not yet reached the level of greatness that British audiences were hoping for from a contemporary composer.\n\nIt wasn't until the premiere of the Enigma Variations in 1899 that public and critical opinion shifted dramatically in Elgar's favor. Following the performance, which was conducted by the renowned German conductor Hans Richter, Elgar's music received widespread acclaim for its originality, charm, and technical craftsmanship, and he was hailed as the preeminent British composer of his generation.\n\nIn the years that followed, Elgar's works continued to garner positive responses from music critics both within the United Kingdom and internationally. Works such as the Pomp and Circumstance Marches, the Violin Concerto, the Cello Concerto, and The Dream of Gerontius became increasingly celebrated, and his talents as a composer became more widely acknowledged by music critics. As a result, Elgar's reputation grew, and he would come to be recognized as a leading figure in English classical music.\n\nCritics of the time also noted Elgar's ability to successfully adapt European influences—particularly those from the Central European tradition exemplified by the work of Richard Strauss. This was especially true in the case of the Enigma Variations, which went on to become a staple in the international concert repertoire and received favorable reviews in countries like Germany and Italy.\n\nIn summary, although Sir Edward Elgar faced some initial lukewarm responses from critics early on in his career, his later works, particularly the Enigma Variations, led to a more widespread appreciation and admiration for his talents. As a result, his status as a respected composer was solidified, and today he is remembered as one of the greats of British classical music." } ]
