A judge in the federal District Court for Idaho decided Monday that it was unconstitutional, citing First Amendment protections for free speech.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But what about the handful of other states with similar laws on the books?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Laws in Montana, Utah, North Dakota, Missouri, Kansas and Iowa have also made it illegal for activists to smuggle cameras into industrial animal operations. A new North Carolina law goes into effect in January 2016. But now those laws' days could be numbered, according to the lead attorney for the coalition of animal welfare groups that sued the state of Idaho.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is a total victory on our two central constitutional claims,\" says University of Denver law professor \u003ca href=\"https://www.law.du.edu/index.php/profile/justin-marceau\">Justin Marceau\u003c/a>, who represented the plaintiff, the Animal Legal Defense Fund, in the case. \"Ag-gag laws violate the First Amendment and Equal Protection Clause. This means that these laws all over the country are in real danger.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Ag-gag\" refers to a variety of laws meant to curb undercover investigations of agricultural operations, often large dairy, poultry and pork farms. The Idaho law \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2014/02/28/284118937/-ag-gag-bill-takes-effect-in-idaho-bans-undercover-filming-at-farms\">criminalized\u003c/a> video or audio recording of a farm without the owner's consent and lying to a farm owner to gain employment there to do an undercover investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other \"ag-gag\" laws require that animal abuse be reported within a specific time frame, a tactic animal activists say is meant to prevent them from gathering evidence of an abuse pattern rather than just a singular event.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Utah's \"ag-gag\" law is the subject of another federal lawsuit, filed by the ALDF and PETA.

"content": "\u003cp>India is in the midst of a war of sorts — a war over eggs. To eat them, or not to eat them. Actually, it's more about whether the government should give free eggs to poor, malnourished children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It all began in late May, when Shivraj Chouhan, the chief minister of the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh, shot down a proposal to serve eggs in government-run day care centers (\u003cem>anganwadis\u003c/em>) in some tribal areas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These communities have high rates of malnutrition, says Sachin Jain, a local food-rights activist in the state. \"The idea behind the proposal was to address the gap in protein deficiency through ... eggs,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Chouhan \u003ca href=\"http://indianexpress.com/article/india/india-others/veg-chouhan-blocks-eggs-in-anganwadis/\">wasn't convinced\u003c/a>. As Indian newspapers reported, he publicly vowed not to allow eggs to be served as long as he was minister.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Why this vehement opposition to eggs? Well, the local community of Jains, which is strictly vegetarian and also powerful in the state, has previously thwarted efforts to introduce eggs in day care centers and schools. Chouhan is an upper caste Hindu man who recently became a vegetarian.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And the state of Madhya Pradesh is mostly vegetarian, as are some other states, like Karnataka, Rajasthan and Gujarat. For years, the more politically vocal vegetarians in these states have kept eggs out of school lunches and \u003cem>anganwadis.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But here's the thing: While these states as a whole may be mostly vegetarian, the poorest — and most malnourished — Indians generally are not. They would eat eggs, if only they could afford them, says Dipa Sinha, an economist at the Center for Equity Studies in New Delhi and an expert on India's preschool and school feeding programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>India's free school lunch program alone reaches about \u003ca href=\"http://pulitzercenter.org/projects/asia-india-midday-meal-program-corruption-success-nutrition-poverty-school-lunch\">120 million of India's poorest children\u003c/a>, and the \u003cem>anganwadis\u003c/em> reach millions of younger children. So, the egg war isn't trivial.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chouhan's office \u003ca href=\"http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/politics-and-nation/egg-less-meals-at-anganwadis-madhya-pradeshs-ban-pitches-nutrition-against-politics/articleshow/47560045.cms\">has said\u003c/a> the chief minister is \"sentimental\" about keeping \u003cem>anganwadis\u003c/em> egg-free. \"This is a very upper caste Hindu sentiment,\" says Sinha.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hindu scriptures prescribe \u003ca href=\"http://pulitzercenter.org/reporting/asia-india-school-lunch-program-caste-discrimination\">notions of purity\u003c/a> for people belonging to upper castes, Sinha explains. \"You can't use the same spoon as someone else. You can't sit next to someone eating meat. You can't eat food cooked by someone who eats meat. And they think this is a dominant culture and that they can impose it on anyone.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"http://indianexpress.com/article/india/india-others/beef-banned-in-maharashtra-5-yrs-jail-rs10000-fine-for-possession-or-sale/\">recent ban\u003c/a> on the slaughter of bulls and bullocks in the neighboring state of Maharashtra also reflects this sentiment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While most Hindus today don't eat beef, Hindus belonging to lower castes, including Dalits (considered the lowest in India's caste hierarchy), do rely on this meat as a regular source of protein, as do Christians and Muslims. Dalit scholars have \u003ca href=\"http://scroll.in/article/714661/beef-ban-is-an-attempt-to-impose-upper-caste-culture-on-other-hindus-kancha-ilaiah\">called this ban\u003c/a> an effort to impose upper-caste Hindu values on the lower caste minorities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We often assume Indians are largely vegetarian, but that assumption doesn't hold up against data. A \u003ca href=\"http://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/the-food-habits-of-a-nation/article3089973.ece\">2006 survey\u003c/a> by the Delhi-based \u003ca href=\"http://www.csds.in/\">Center for the Study of Developing Societies\u003c/a> found that more than 50 percent of Indians are in fact non-vegetarian. They eat fish, chicken, beef and, yes, eggs, too. Vegetarianism is often limited to privileged, upper caste Hindu communities and a couple of other religions, like Jainism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most underprivileged Indians, on the other hand, including Dalits and tribal communities, are non-vegetarians, says Sinha. Their children make up the majority of India's most malnourished.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That is why public health policy experts and right-to-food activists all over the country are trying to introduce eggs into government schools and day cares.\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some states already serve eggs, and they are popular among the children. Sinha recalls an incident from several years ago, when she was visiting schools in the southern state of Andhra Pradesh to see how well the school lunch program was working. The state had recently begun to provide eggs in school lunches. One school had a box where students submitted their complaints and feedback about the school meal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We opened it, and one of the letters in that box was from a girl in [fourth grade],\" says Sinha. \"It was a Dalit girl, who said, 'Thank you very much. I got to eat an egg in my life for the first time.' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Wherever eggs are introduced, attendance goes up,\" says Sinha. \"It's very popular, because children don't get it at home.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eggs are also an easy way to provide much-needed protein and fat to malnourished children, says Sachin Jain, the food rights activist. They are easy to procure locally, and storage and transportation aren't a problem. \"No ... vegetarian food item is that good a source of protein,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Milk, which comes close and is often touted as a good alternative by vegetarians like Chouhan, comes with many complications. It is often diluted by suppliers and is easy to contaminate, says Jain. It also requires more infrastructure to store and transport to remote rural areas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I am a vegetarian,\" adds Jain. \"I have never touched an egg. But I have other sources of fat and protein, like ghee (clarified butter) and milk. Tribals, Dalits and other poor people don't have these options. They can't afford these things. Then, eggs become a very good option for them.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We still have very high malnutrition,\" says Dipa Sinha. \"Every third Indian child is malnourished.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This context\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>is crucial in this discussion, she says, \"because the best interest of the child is what should be driving policy. I think this (ban on eggs) is a big setback.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Rhitu Chatterjee is a multimedia journalist based in New Delhi. See the related animation, \"\u003ca href=\"http://pulitzercenter.org/reporting/power-lunch-india-mid-day-meal-program\">Power Lunch: India's Mid-Day Meal Program\u003c/a>,\" produced by Mathilde Dratwa for the Pulitzer Center and based on Chatterjee's reporting.\u003c/em> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003cem>Copyright 2015 \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/\" target=\"_blank\">NPR\u003c/a>.\u003c/em> \u003c/p>\n\n",

Actually, it's more about whether the government should give free eggs to poor, malnourished children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It all began in late May, when Shivraj Chouhan, the chief minister of the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh, shot down a proposal to serve eggs in government-run day care centers (\u003cem>anganwadis\u003c/em>) in some tribal areas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These communities have high rates of malnutrition, says Sachin Jain, a local food-rights activist in the state. \"The idea behind the proposal was to address the gap in protein deficiency through ... eggs,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Chouhan \u003ca href=\"http://indianexpress.com/article/india/india-others/veg-chouhan-blocks-eggs-in-anganwadis/\">wasn't convinced\u003c/a>. As Indian newspapers reported, he publicly vowed not to allow eggs to be served as long as he was minister.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Why this vehement opposition to eggs? Well, the local community of Jains, which is strictly vegetarian and also powerful in the state, has previously thwarted efforts to introduce eggs in day care centers and schools. Chouhan is an upper caste Hindu man who recently became a vegetarian.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

For years, the more politically vocal vegetarians in these states have kept eggs out of school lunches and \u003cem>anganwadis.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But here's the thing: While these states as a whole may be mostly vegetarian, the poorest — and most malnourished — Indians generally are not. They would eat eggs, if only they could afford them, says Dipa Sinha, an economist at the Center for Equity Studies in New Delhi and an expert on India's preschool and school feeding programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>India's free school lunch program alone reaches about \u003ca href=\"http://pulitzercenter.org/projects/asia-india-midday-meal-program-corruption-success-nutrition-poverty-school-lunch\">120 million of India's poorest children\u003c/a>, and the \u003cem>anganwadis\u003c/em> reach millions of younger children. So, the egg war isn't trivial.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chouhan's office \u003ca href=\"http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/politics-and-nation/egg-less-meals-at-anganwadis-madhya-pradeshs-ban-pitches-nutrition-against-politics/articleshow/47560045.cms\">has said\u003c/a> the chief minister is \"sentimental\" about keeping \u003cem>anganwadis\u003c/em> egg-free. \"This is a very upper caste Hindu sentiment,\" says Sinha.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hindu scriptures prescribe \u003ca href=\"http://pulitzercenter.org/reporting/asia-india-school-lunch-program-caste-discrimination\">notions of purity\u003c/a> for people belonging to upper castes, Sinha explains. \"You can't use the same spoon as someone else. You can't sit next to someone eating meat. You can't eat food cooked by someone who eats meat. And they think this is a dominant culture and that they can impose it on anyone.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"http://indianexpress.com/article/india/india-others/beef-banned-in-maharashtra-5-yrs-jail-rs10000-fine-for-possession-or-sale/\">recent ban\u003c/a> on the slaughter of bulls and bullocks in the neighboring state of Maharashtra also reflects this sentiment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While most Hindus today don't eat beef, Hindus belonging to lower castes, including Dalits (considered the lowest in India's caste hierarchy), do rely on this meat as a regular source of protein, as do Christians and Muslims. Dalit scholars have \u003ca href=\"http://scroll.in/article/714661/beef-ban-is-an-attempt-to-impose-upper-caste-culture-on-other-hindus-kancha-ilaiah\">called this ban\u003c/a> an effort to impose upper-caste Hindu values on the lower caste minorities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We often assume Indians are largely vegetarian, but that assumption doesn't hold up against data. A \u003ca href=\"http://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/the-food-habits-of-a-nation/article3089973.ece\">2006 survey\u003c/a> by the Delhi-based \u003ca href=\"http://www.csds.in/\">Center for the Study of Developing Societies\u003c/a> found that more than 50 percent of Indians are in fact non-vegetarian. They eat fish, chicken, beef and, yes, eggs, too. Vegetarianism is often limited to privileged, upper caste Hindu communities and a couple of other religions, like Jainism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most underprivileged Indians, on the other hand, including Dalits and tribal communities, are non-vegetarians, says Sinha. Their children make up the majority of India's most malnourished.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That is why public health policy experts and right-to-food activists all over the country are trying to introduce eggs into government schools and day cares.\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some states already serve eggs, and they are popular among the children. Sinha recalls an incident from several years ago, when she was visiting schools in the southern state of Andhra Pradesh to see how well the school lunch program was working. The state had recently begun to provide eggs in school lunches. One school had a box where students submitted their complaints and feedback about the school meal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We opened it, and one of the letters in that box was from a girl in [fourth grade],\" says Sinha. \"It was a Dalit girl, who said, 'Thank you very much. I got to eat an egg in my life for the first time.' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Wherever eggs are introduced, attendance goes up,\" says Sinha. \"It's very popular, because children don't get it at home.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eggs are also an easy way to provide much-needed protein and fat to malnourished children, says Sachin Jain, the food rights activist. They are easy to procure locally, and storage and transportation aren't a problem. \"No ... vegetarian food item is that good a source of protein,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Milk, which comes close and is often touted as a good alternative by vegetarians like Chouhan, comes with many complications. It is often diluted by suppliers and is easy to contaminate, says Jain. It also requires more infrastructure to store and transport to remote rural areas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I am a vegetarian,\" adds Jain. \"I have never touched an egg. But I have other sources of fat and protein, like ghee (clarified butter) and milk. Tribals, Dalits and other poor people don't have these options. They can't afford these things. Then, eggs become a very good option for them.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We still have very high malnutrition,\" says Dipa Sinha. \"Every third Indian child is malnourished.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This context\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>is crucial in this discussion, she says, \"because the best interest of the child is what should be driving policy. I think this (ban on eggs) is a big setback.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Rhitu Chatterjee is a multimedia journalist based in New Delhi.

The scientific evidence now shows it won't raise the amount of LDL cholesterol – the bad kind of cholesterol — in your blood or raise the risk of heart disease.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The panel, which advises the government on how to update the Dietary Guidelines every five years, also pushed the envelope a bit by recommending a plant-focused diet — not only because it promotes health, but because it's also \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/blogs/thesalt/2014/12/15/370427441/congress-to-nutritionists-dont-talk-about-the-environment\">more environmentally sustainable\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But as two leading nutrition researchers argue in an \u003ca href=\"http://jama.jamanetwork.com/article.aspx?articleid=2338262\">opinion\u003c/a> piece out this week in \u003cem>JAMA\u003c/em>, the journal of the American Medical Association, there was another, even more important recommendation in the committee's report that's largely been overlooked: It's all about fat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For many years, the government has put a cap on how much fat we consume – recommending that we get only 20 to 35 percent of our daily calories from this nutrient.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What the new report advised instead was to \"put the emphasis on optimizing types of dietary fat and not reducing total fat.\" The advice to limit total fat to prevent obesity was also gutted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is a subtle but powerful change, Dariush Mozaffarian and David Ludwig write: \"With these quiet statements, the DGAC report reversed nearly four decades of nutrition policy that placed priority on reducing total fat consumption throughout the population.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.nutrition.tufts.edu/about/welcome-dean-mozaffarian\">Dariush Mozaffarian\u003c/a> is dean of the Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy at Tufts University, and \u003ca href=\"http://www.childrenshospital.org/researchers/david-ludwig\">David Ludwig\u003c/a> is a professor of pediatrics and nutrition at Harvard University and the director of the New Balance Foundation Obesity Prevention Center at Boston Children's Hospital. They've both authored research that has, over the years, done a lot to help shift the thinking on both macronutrients – like carbs and fat – and patterns of eating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But let's back up a second. When and why did fat become such a big villain? As Allison Aubrey has \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2014/03/28/295332576/why-we-got-fatter-during-the-fat-free-food-boom\">reported\u003c/a>, it started back in the 1970s, and with the first set of dietary guidelines for Americans in 1980. The message was: Decrease fat and you'll decrease saturated fat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back then, scientists were mostly concerned with saturated fat. And indeed, the latest evidence shows that saturated fats can raise levels of artery-clogging LDL cholesterol. But demonizing all fat set off the fat-free boom, and a big increase in carbohydrate and sugar intake followed, which led to Americans becoming \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2014/03/28/295332576/why-we-got-fatter-during-the-fat-free-food-boom\">even fatter\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, as Mozaffarian and Ludwig point out, another problem with telling people to limit total fat is that people end up eating fewer monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats – the kind found in nuts, vegetable oils and fish – which are really healthful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, it seems, the government has an opportunity to set the record straight on fat. The U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Department of Health and Human Services are now reviewing the committee's report and will update the guidelines later this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://nutrition.hhd.psu.edu/directory/Bio.aspx?id=PennyKris-Etherton\">Penny Kris-Etherton\u003c/a>, professor of nutrition at Penn State and the chair of the American Heart Association's nutrition committee, says she thinks it's unlikely that lifting limits on total fat intake will be much of a sticking point. \"There is a pretty solid consensus now that it's the type of fat that's really important,\" she tells The Salt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The American Heart Association still recommends \"selecting fat-free, 1 percent fat and low-fat dairy products\" on its \u003ca href=\"http://www.heart.org/HEARTORG/GettingHealthy/NutritionCenter/HealthyEating/The-American-Heart-Associations-Diet-and-Lifestyle-Recommendations_UCM_305855_Article.jsp\">website\u003c/a>. But Kris-Etherton says that advice is out of date. \"They need to change that,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kris-Etherton says that in practice, the association isn't defending the low-fat position anymore. The AHA's new lifestyle guideline implies that it's best to substitute polyunsaturated fats — found in things like almonds and avocados — for saturated fats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"A lot of people still look at how much fat [is in foods], and we're now saying don't focus on that: Look at the quality of fat you're consuming,\" she says. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Copyright 2015 \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/\" target=\"_blank\">NPR\u003c/a>.\u003c/em> \u003c/p>\n\n",

The scientific evidence now shows it won't raise the amount of LDL cholesterol – the bad kind of cholesterol — in your blood or raise the risk of heart disease.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The panel, which advises the government on how to update the Dietary Guidelines every five years, also pushed the envelope a bit by recommending a plant-focused diet — not only because it promotes health, but because it's also \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/blogs/thesalt/2014/12/15/370427441/congress-to-nutritionists-dont-talk-about-the-environment\">more environmentally sustainable\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But as two leading nutrition researchers argue in an \u003ca href=\"http://jama.jamanetwork.com/article.aspx?articleid=2338262\">opinion\u003c/a> piece out this week in \u003cem>JAMA\u003c/em>, the journal of the American Medical Association, there was another, even more important recommendation in the committee's report that's largely been overlooked: It's all about fat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For many years, the government has put a cap on how much fat we consume – recommending that we get only 20 to 35 percent of our daily calories from this nutrient.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

They've both authored research that has, over the years, done a lot to help shift the thinking on both macronutrients – like carbs and fat – and patterns of eating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But let's back up a second. When and why did fat become such a big villain? As Allison Aubrey has \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2014/03/28/295332576/why-we-got-fatter-during-the-fat-free-food-boom\">reported\u003c/a>, it started back in the 1970s, and with the first set of dietary guidelines for Americans in 1980. The message was: Decrease fat and you'll decrease saturated fat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back then, scientists were mostly concerned with saturated fat. And indeed, the latest evidence shows that saturated fats can raise levels of artery-clogging LDL cholesterol. But demonizing all fat set off the fat-free boom, and a big increase in carbohydrate and sugar intake followed, which led to Americans becoming \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2014/03/28/295332576/why-we-got-fatter-during-the-fat-free-food-boom\">even fatter\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, as Mozaffarian and Ludwig point out, another problem with telling people to limit total fat is that people end up eating fewer monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats – the kind found in nuts, vegetable oils and fish – which are really healthful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, it seems, the government has an opportunity to set the record straight on fat. The U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Department of Health and Human Services are now reviewing the committee's report and will update the guidelines later this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://nutrition.hhd.psu.edu/directory/Bio.aspx?id=PennyKris-Etherton\">Penny Kris-Etherton\u003c/a>, professor of nutrition at Penn State and the chair of the American Heart Association's nutrition committee, says she thinks it's unlikely that lifting limits on total fat intake will be much of a sticking point. \"There is a pretty solid consensus now that it's the type of fat that's really important,\" she tells The Salt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The American Heart Association still recommends \"selecting fat-free, 1 percent fat and low-fat dairy products\" on its \u003ca href=\"http://www.heart.org/HEARTORG/GettingHealthy/NutritionCenter/HealthyEating/The-American-Heart-Associations-Diet-and-Lifestyle-Recommendations_UCM_305855_Article.jsp\">website\u003c/a>. But Kris-Etherton says that advice is out of date. \"They need to change that,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kris-Etherton says that in practice, the association isn't defending the low-fat position anymore. The AHA's new lifestyle guideline implies that it's best to substitute polyunsaturated fats — found in things like almonds and avocados — for saturated fats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"A lot of people still look at how much fat [is in foods], and we're now saying don't focus on that: Look at the quality of fat you're consuming,\" she says. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Copyright 2015 \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/\" target=\"_blank\">NPR\u003c/a>.\u003c/em> \u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
