"content": "\u003cp>Our relationships with and access to music lie between rocks and hard places; the rocks that own it, the hard places that distribute it to us. Those relationships are constantly evolving, and to figure out what might come next, we’ve combed through the recent earnings statements of some of the largest record labels and tech companies to reveal how they’re preparing for 2017 and beyond.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Musicians and labels have had to adjust to a world where they hold less control, because of the ways we listen now. Where once music distribution centered mostly around record stores, or radio disc jockeys — with whom musicians and labels typically had more symbiotic relationships — they’re now forced to work with companies like Apple, Facebook and Google — for whom music is a cherry, not the sundae — and streaming companies like Spotify, who now hold sway over huge portions of their bank statements.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003c/em>These tech companies will also control distribution channels that have yet to manifest — like virtual and augmented reality technologies, as well as “high resolution” music, which was mentioned on Warner Music’s earnings call Wednesday and which another major label source told NPR last week is a major priority in this year, and years, to come. (These companies are barred from collusion, but often reach the same conclusions at similar times.) Where tech has the platform, labels — for better and worse — have the content tech needs to make those platforms rich, emotionally and otherwise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Consolidation is expected this year in the streaming industry, as presaged by Sprint’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/23/business/media/tidal-streaming-music-jayz-sprint.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">recent purchase\u003c/a> of a third of Tidal, the streaming service that Jay Z purchased in 2015 for $56 million. Pandora also has been tipped as an acquisition target by SiriusXM, though Pandora seems keen to see how its forthcoming Spotify competitor, \u003ca href=\"http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/7604144/pandora-premium-reveal-spotify-competitor-streaming\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pandora Premium\u003c/a>, fares before any organizational capitulation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Record companies want as many outlets (think Spotify, or the app \u003ca href=\"https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/musical.ly-your-video-social/id835599320?mt=8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Music.ally\u003c/a>) as possible using their music, in part to avoid the market domination that Apple had with the iTunes Store starting in 2004, and in part to keep pricing for their music catalogs competitive. However, tech companies have their own leverage, in the form of billions of “captive” users. The hands wash each other and the tendrils of industry are labyrinthine. (This very long, very dense piece \u003ca href=\"http://www.yalelawjournal.org/article/amazons-antitrust-paradox\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">on antitrust and Amazon\u003c/a> from \u003cem>The Yale Law Journal\u003c/em> is a fascinating breakdown not just of Amazon, but of the many problems facing tech’s primacy, regulation and the laws around it.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the past week, the companies below have either shared their most recent financial statements (except for Snap Inc., which filed a comprehensive internal breakdown ahead of its $18 billion IPO). These statements (along with tech’s activity over the past year and conversations we’ve had with them) give us a look at the proverbial tea leaves and where we fall between the hard place and the rock.\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003ch5>\u003cstrong>SPOTIFY\u003c/strong>\u003c/h5>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12744698\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/gettyimages-624350888-22fcf39de9a160a6b44fd8b4d50c0bca0c04430b-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg looks on a Peruvian President Pedro Pablo Kuczynski demos a virtual reality headse\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-12744698\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/gettyimages-624350888-22fcf39de9a160a6b44fd8b4d50c0bca0c04430b-800x600.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/gettyimages-624350888-22fcf39de9a160a6b44fd8b4d50c0bca0c04430b-160x120.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/gettyimages-624350888-22fcf39de9a160a6b44fd8b4d50c0bca0c04430b-768x576.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/gettyimages-624350888-22fcf39de9a160a6b44fd8b4d50c0bca0c04430b-1020x764.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/gettyimages-624350888-22fcf39de9a160a6b44fd8b4d50c0bca0c04430b-1920x1439.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/gettyimages-624350888-22fcf39de9a160a6b44fd8b4d50c0bca0c04430b-1180x884.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/gettyimages-624350888-22fcf39de9a160a6b44fd8b4d50c0bca0c04430b-960x719.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/gettyimages-624350888-22fcf39de9a160a6b44fd8b4d50c0bca0c04430b-240x180.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/gettyimages-624350888-22fcf39de9a160a6b44fd8b4d50c0bca0c04430b-375x281.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/gettyimages-624350888-22fcf39de9a160a6b44fd8b4d50c0bca0c04430b-520x390.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/02/gettyimages-624350888-22fcf39de9a160a6b44fd8b4d50c0bca0c04430b.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg looks on a Peruvian President Pedro Pablo Kuczynski demos a virtual reality headse \u003ccite>(Photo: Pablo Parciuncula/AFP/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The financials of the world’s most-used streaming service are a notoriously elusive commodity — the company files in the spring, in Luxembourg, in French, and makes it a point not to announce them — but two things over the past day alone and one as-yet-unannounced move indicate where the company’s head is at. Last things first, its partnership with AccuWeather, which \u003ca href=\"http://www.accuweather.com/en/weather-news/accuweather-spotify-launch-climatune-to-produce-playlists-customized-to-weather/70000786\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">yielded a study on how weather affects listening patterns\u003c/a>. Next, two as-yet-unannounced podcasts exclusive to the service, one on music supervision (the work of selecting and licensing songs for television and movies) and the other about hip-hop record executive Chris Lighty. Finally, and most importantly, the \u003ca href=\"http://www.niemanlab.org/2017/02/with-its-new-spotify-bundle-the-new-york-times-is-chasing-a-new-younger-base-of-subscribers/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">deal it announced Wednesday with the \u003cem>New York Times\u003c/em>\u003c/a>, where new digital subscribers will receive a year of Spotify Premium for free\u003cem>\u003c/em>. Taken together, along with past initiatives like its \u003ca href=\"http://www.tiestoblog.com/spotify-album-burn-by-tiesto/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">“elastic” running songs\u003c/a>, show the market leader intends to keep pushing the envelope with data — but not with exclusive music content, as founder Daniel Ek has made clear. (Just podcasts, apparently.)\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003ch5>\u003cstrong>APPLE\u003c/strong>\u003c/h5>\n\u003cp>Last year, Apple Music banked heavily on releases exclusive to it, including Frank Ocean’s highly anticipated \u003cem>Blonde\u003c/em>. However, likely due to an \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/26/business/media/frank-oceans-blonde-amplifies-discord-in-the-music-business.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">inspired bit of contractual gymnastics\u003c/a> on Ocean’s part, exclusives were subsequently \u003ca href=\"https://www.theguardian.com/business/2016/aug/23/universal-streaming-exclusives-frank-ocean-release\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">banned\u003c/a> by Universal Music CEO Lucian Grainge. Despite that, Apple executives \u003ca href=\"http://www.billboard.com/articles/business/7604098/apple-music-20-million-subscribers-eddy-cue-zane-lowe-interview\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">described\u003c/a> platform-specific exclusives like \u003cem>Blonde \u003c/em>as working “really well for everybody concerned — they’re great for the label, they work for the artist and for us.” To that end, it announced that Apple would be the home for \u003cem>Carpool Karaoke\u003c/em>, a massively successful segment that started on \u003cem>The Late Late Show With James Corden\u003c/em>. (Adele’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nck6BZga7TQ\">turn\u003c/a> has been viewed 145 million times as of this writing.) This will also, serendipitously, benefit Apple TV.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Apple’s streaming service, Apple Music, has emerged as Spotify’s primary competitor, but from the outside is financially inextricable from other business segments of the Cupertino tech giant; Apple Music’s reports are bundled with other “services,” like its consumer insurance product AppleCare and Apple Pay. Regardless, it is a success, at least culturally. Apple Music now claims to have \u003ca href=\"http://www.billboard.com/articles/business/7604098/apple-music-20-million-subscribers-eddy-cue-zane-lowe-interview\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">20 million subscribers\u003c/a> since launching in June 2015. Its “services” arm \u003ca href=\"http://www.apple.com/newsroom/2017/01/apple-reports-record-first-quarter-results.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">was up\u003c/a> 22 percent between 2015 and 2016, from $19.9 billion to $24.34 billion.\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003ch5>\u003cstrong>FACEBOOK\u003c/strong>\u003c/h5>\n\u003cp>As anyone who has seen the traffic report from any digital publisher of articles knows, Facebook’s dominance of media distribution on the web is near total. As such, even small moves make big waves.

A source with knowledge of the negotiations described them as routine, despite unrelenting attacks on it last year from various industry stakeholders over a perceived “value gap” between what YouTube pays for music streams versus what music services like Spotify (sometimes referred to as “pure-play” services) return to the recording industry. As a source pointed out to NPR last week, that value gap has been increasing as more people consume more music on the site.

That the company is about to get a new CEO — Rob Stringer, who is moving up from the reins of Columbia — after many years of being run by a legacy executive will no doubt bring fundamental change to the company. Sony Music’s recorded music revenue dropped 12.8 percent between 2015 and 2016, to $990 million. Of that, $364 million was generated by streaming services. Sony’s music operations were helped this past quarter not by music sales but rather thanks to a video game, \u003cem>Fate/Grand Order\u003c/em>.

(In fact, founder Evan Spiegel, as the hack of Sony Corp. revealed, had \u003ca href=\"http://www.billboard.com/articles/business/6406613/sony-leaks-snapchat-record-label-vevo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">expressed interest\u003c/a> in starting his own record label.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a \u003ca href=\"https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1564408/000119312517029199/d270216ds1.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">118,000-word filing\u003c/a> with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Snap Inc., the recently formed parent company of social media platform Snapchat, explained itself — even its famously inscrutable app — ahead of an initial public offering. Notably, it writes that “Snap Inc. is a camera company,” and defines Snapchat itself as a “camera application.” (The only camera it has released for sale are a pair of well-reviewed “Spectacles,” released surreptitiously in vending machines in Los Angeles and New York.) It is, of course, more than that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cost of revenue, which includes licensing deals for content from publishers like BuzzFeed as well as failed content partnerships like the one \u003ca href=\"http://www.billboard.com/articles/business/6642187/snapchat-discover-warner-music-yahoo-iheartradio-buzzfeed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">it cancelled\u003c/a> with Warner Music Group, was about $451 million in 2016.

Those relationships are constantly evolving, and to figure out what might come next, we’ve combed through the recent earnings statements of some of the largest record labels and tech companies to reveal how they’re preparing for 2017 and beyond.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Musicians and labels have had to adjust to a world where they hold less control, because of the ways we listen now. Where once music distribution centered mostly around record stores, or radio disc jockeys — with whom musicians and labels typically had more symbiotic relationships — they’re now forced to work with companies like Apple, Facebook and Google — for whom music is a cherry, not the sundae — and streaming companies like Spotify, who now hold sway over huge portions of their bank statements.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003c/em>These tech companies will also control distribution channels that have yet to manifest — like virtual and augmented reality technologies, as well as “high resolution” music, which was mentioned on Warner Music’s earnings call Wednesday and which another major label source told NPR last week is a major priority in this year, and years, to come. (These companies are barred from collusion, but often reach the same conclusions at similar times.) Where tech has the platform, labels — for better and worse — have the content tech needs to make those platforms rich, emotionally and otherwise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Consolidation is expected this year in the streaming industry, as presaged by Sprint’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/23/business/media/tidal-streaming-music-jayz-sprint.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">recent purchase\u003c/a> of a third of Tidal, the streaming service that Jay Z purchased in 2015 for $56 million. Pandora also has been tipped as an acquisition target by SiriusXM, though Pandora seems keen to see how its forthcoming Spotify competitor, \u003ca href=\"http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/7604144/pandora-premium-reveal-spotify-competitor-streaming\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pandora Premium\u003c/a>, fares before any organizational capitulation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Record companies want as many outlets (think Spotify, or the app \u003ca href=\"https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/musical.ly-your-video-social/id835599320?mt=8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Music.ally\u003c/a>) as possible using their music, in part to avoid the market domination that Apple had with the iTunes Store starting in 2004, and in part to keep pricing for their music catalogs competitive. However, tech companies have their own leverage, in the form of billions of “captive” users. The hands wash each other and the tendrils of industry are labyrinthine. (This very long, very dense piece \u003ca href=\"http://www.yalelawjournal.org/article/amazons-antitrust-paradox\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">on antitrust and Amazon\u003c/a> from \u003cem>The Yale Law Journal\u003c/em> is a fascinating breakdown not just of Amazon, but of the many problems facing tech’s primacy, regulation and the laws around it.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Last things first, its partnership with AccuWeather, which \u003ca href=\"http://www.accuweather.com/en/weather-news/accuweather-spotify-launch-climatune-to-produce-playlists-customized-to-weather/70000786\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">yielded a study on how weather affects listening patterns\u003c/a>. Next, two as-yet-unannounced podcasts exclusive to the service, one on music supervision (the work of selecting and licensing songs for television and movies) and the other about hip-hop record executive Chris Lighty. Finally, and most importantly, the \u003ca href=\"http://www.niemanlab.org/2017/02/with-its-new-spotify-bundle-the-new-york-times-is-chasing-a-new-younger-base-of-subscribers/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">deal it announced Wednesday with the \u003cem>New York Times\u003c/em>\u003c/a>, where new digital subscribers will receive a year of Spotify Premium for free\u003cem>\u003c/em>. Taken together, along with past initiatives like its \u003ca href=\"http://www.tiestoblog.com/spotify-album-burn-by-tiesto/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">“elastic” running songs\u003c/a>, show the market leader intends to keep pushing the envelope with data — but not with exclusive music content, as founder Daniel Ek has made clear.

(Adele’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nck6BZga7TQ\">turn\u003c/a> has been viewed 145 million times as of this writing.) This will also, serendipitously, benefit Apple TV.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Apple’s streaming service, Apple Music, has emerged as Spotify’s primary competitor, but from the outside is financially inextricable from other business segments of the Cupertino tech giant; Apple Music’s reports are bundled with other “services,” like its consumer insurance product AppleCare and Apple Pay. Regardless, it is a success, at least culturally. Apple Music now claims to have \u003ca href=\"http://www.billboard.com/articles/business/7604098/apple-music-20-million-subscribers-eddy-cue-zane-lowe-interview\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">20 million subscribers\u003c/a> since launching in June 2015. Its “services” arm \u003ca href=\"http://www.apple.com/newsroom/2017/01/apple-reports-record-first-quarter-results.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">was up\u003c/a> 22 percent between 2015 and 2016, from $19.9 billion to $24.34 billion.\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003ch5>\u003cstrong>FACEBOOK\u003c/strong>\u003c/h5>\n\u003cp>As anyone who has seen the traffic report from any digital publisher of articles knows, Facebook’s dominance of media distribution on the web is near total. As such, even small moves make big waves. And, while “music” wasn’t mentioned once in last week’s \u003ca href=\"https://investor.fb.com/investor-events/event-details/2017/Facebook-Q4-2016-Earnings/default.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">earnings call\u003c/a>, the hiring of Tamara Hrivnak \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/therecord/2017/01/30/512445669/with-new-hire-facebook-looks-to-strengthen-its-relationship-to-music\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">last week\u003c/a> to lead, as she posted on Faceook, “global music strategy and business development,” is a crystal clear indication that it will no longer sit on the sidelines when it comes to music. As \u003ca href=\"http://www.recode.net/2017/1/17/14269406/facebook-live-video-deals-paid\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cem>Recode\u003c/em> reported\u003c/a>, Facebook plans to focus more on “high-quality” video. It wouldn’t be shocking to see the company partner with video companies (like the music-focused Vevo, for instance) and music rights holders to host longer-form series, like Apple is doing with \u003cem>Carpool Karaoke\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003ch5>\u003cstrong>GOOGLE\u003c/strong>\u003c/h5>\n\u003cp>YouTube is the world’s largest streaming service, by consumption, but remains the black sheep among those services for what the recording business says are lower-than-fair values for their work on it. A source with knowledge of the negotiations described them as routine, despite unrelenting attacks on it last year from various industry stakeholders over a perceived “value gap” between what YouTube pays for music streams versus what music services like Spotify (sometimes referred to as “pure-play” services) return to the recording industry. As a source pointed out to NPR last week, that value gap has been increasing as more people consume more music on the site.

It also cited, as mentioned above, virtual and augmented reality and high-resolution music as promising new sources of revenue over the coming year and beyond.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Warner Music reports it made 8.1 percent more from records than it did over the same period in 2015, with $917 million in total revenue, $311 million of which came from streaming services.\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003ch5>\u003cstrong>SONY CORP.\u003c/strong>\u003c/h5>\n\u003cp>Sony Corp., which owns both major label Sony Music (home of Adele and Beyoncé, among many many others) and Sony/ATV, the world’s largest music publishing company (responsible for administering and exploiting compositions, which are legally separate from the sound recordings that record labels, like Sony Music, sell) reported sales down slightly in its third quarter, to $1.49 billion. That the company is about to get a new CEO — Rob Stringer, who is moving up from the reins of Columbia — after many years of being run by a legacy executive will no doubt bring fundamental change to the company. Sony Music’s recorded music revenue dropped 12.8 percent between 2015 and 2016, to $990 million. Of that, $364 million was generated by streaming services. Sony’s music operations were helped this past quarter not by music sales but rather thanks to a video game, \u003cem>Fate/Grand Order\u003c/em>.

(In fact, founder Evan Spiegel, as the hack of Sony Corp. revealed, had \u003ca href=\"http://www.billboard.com/articles/business/6406613/sony-leaks-snapchat-record-label-vevo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">expressed interest\u003c/a> in starting his own record label.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a \u003ca href=\"https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1564408/000119312517029199/d270216ds1.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">118,000-word filing\u003c/a> with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Snap Inc., the recently formed parent company of social media platform Snapchat, explained itself — even its famously inscrutable app — ahead of an initial public offering. Notably, it writes that “Snap Inc. is a camera company,” and defines Snapchat itself as a “camera application.” (The only camera it has released for sale are a pair of well-reviewed “Spectacles,” released surreptitiously in vending machines in Los Angeles and New York.) It is, of course, more than that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cost of revenue, which includes licensing deals for content from publishers like BuzzFeed as well as failed content partnerships like the one \u003ca href=\"http://www.billboard.com/articles/business/6642187/snapchat-discover-warner-music-yahoo-iheartradio-buzzfeed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">it cancelled\u003c/a> with Warner Music Group, was about $451 million in 2016. The company as a whole posted a net loss last year of $514 million.

Connor Martin said the word emerged in early 19th century England as a verb for walking vigorously or laboriously.

It suggests raising minimum wages is unnatural, and that is editorializing. He said there is a better word out there: \"increase.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"'Increase' is a neutral word,” Nunberg said, “Things can increase for the better or for the worse. When you want to emphasize the positive effects of a raise or increase, you don’t use 'hike.'”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nunberg calls the word \"hike\" particularly pernicious because no one notices it. It blends in to what he calls the “linguistic wallpaper.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said that the next time I report on the minimum wage, I should stick to the totally neutral word \"increase\" and save \"hike\" for stories about trousers and vigorous walks.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Connor Martin said the word emerged in early 19th century England as a verb for walking vigorously or laboriously. But before long, \"hike\" came to be used transitively with an object to mean moving, pulling or lifting something -- like hiking up a skirt or trousers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The OED documents the first use of \"hike\" in reference to price in 1904, and it’s not used to tell a happy story.

She finds the most common word pairs almost all refer to things people generally do not want. The list includes things like tax hike, rate hike, fare hike, fuel price hike, fee hike and tuition hike, along with wage and pay hikes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Geoff Nunberg, a linguist at the UC Berkeley School of Information, said, “When things hike, there is always the sense that things are being pulled up against their nature.” Using \"hike,\" he said, implies some outside force is yanking up the trousers or skirts or wages.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nunberg said hikes are imposed, they aren’t asked for or welcomed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You don’t go into your boss’s office and say, 'You know, I’ve been working here eight years, I feel I need a salary hike,'\"\u003cbr>\nNunberg said. \"That implies there’s something unnatural about it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is the problem when journalists use \"hike,\" Nunberg said. It suggests raising minimum wages is unnatural, and that is editorializing. He said there is a better word out there: \"increase.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"'Increase' is a neutral word,” Nunberg said, “Things can increase for the better or for the worse. When you want to emphasize the positive effects of a raise or increase, you don’t use 'hike.'”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nunberg calls the word \"hike\" particularly pernicious because no one notices it. It blends in to what he calls the “linguistic wallpaper.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said that the next time I report on the minimum wage, I should stick to the totally neutral word \"increase\" and save \"hike\" for stories about trousers and vigorous walks.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

He said the commission would generally not support outright bans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Commission staff had previously warned Laguna Beach that it considered short-term rentals in residential neighborhoods a right, but the city passed its restrictive ordinance anyway and sent a lengthy letter to the Coastal Commission justifying its move.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Coastal Commission’s new, more aggressive stance on the issue could tilt the battle in favor of short-term rentals along the California coast. The 1976 Coastal Act calls for protecting and encouraging “lower cost visitor and recreational facilities,” including overnight accommodations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The commission has struggled to fulfill that mandate in an increasingly expensive and crowded coastal zone. Seventy-five percent of people surveyed in a recent \u003ca href=\"https://www.ioes.ucla.edu/wp-content/uploads/UCLA-Coastal-Access-Policy-Report.pdf\">statewide poll from UCLA\u003c/a> cited the lack of affordable accommodations as a barrier to accessing the coast.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Andrew Willis, the Coastal Commission's enforcement officer for Southern California, said the commission sees short-term rentals as one way to fill the gap in lower-cost accommodations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're looking for ways to protect the ability of everyone, of all economic backgrounds, to get to the coast, and this seems to be one way,” Willis said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said he hoped city and county officials would take the commission’s recent letter as an invitation to work together to enact regulations that protect public access while addressing concerns from coastal residents. But the emphasis appears to be on access.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We're going to start with the position that we'd like to maximize the opportunities for everyone of all economic backgrounds to get to the coast,” Willis said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Laguna Beach officials have said they believe the city’s short-term rental ordinance adequately addresses the Coastal Commission’s concerns. Still, the city has restarted processing applications for short-term rentals in residential neighborhoods, essentially putting its ban on hold.\u003c/p>\n\n",

He said the commission would generally not support outright bans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Commission staff had previously warned Laguna Beach that it considered short-term rentals in residential neighborhoods a right, but the city passed its restrictive ordinance anyway and sent a lengthy letter to the Coastal Commission justifying its move.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Coastal Commission’s new, more aggressive stance on the issue could tilt the battle in favor of short-term rentals along the California coast. The 1976 Coastal Act calls for protecting and encouraging “lower cost visitor and recreational facilities,” including overnight accommodations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The commission has struggled to fulfill that mandate in an increasingly expensive and crowded coastal zone. Seventy-five percent of people surveyed in a recent \u003ca href=\"https://www.ioes.ucla.edu/wp-content/uploads/UCLA-Coastal-Access-Policy-Report.pdf\">statewide poll from UCLA\u003c/a> cited the lack of affordable accommodations as a barrier to accessing the coast.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Andrew Willis, the Coastal Commission's enforcement officer for Southern California, said the commission sees short-term rentals as one way to fill the gap in lower-cost accommodations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're looking for ways to protect the ability of everyone, of all economic backgrounds, to get to the coast, and this seems to be one way,” Willis said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said he hoped city and county officials would take the commission’s recent letter as an invitation to work together to enact regulations that protect public access while addressing concerns from coastal residents. But the emphasis appears to be on access.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We're going to start with the position that we'd like to maximize the opportunities for everyone of all economic backgrounds to get to the coast,” Willis said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Laguna Beach officials have said they believe the city’s short-term rental ordinance adequately addresses the Coastal Commission’s concerns. Still, the city has restarted processing applications for short-term rentals in residential neighborhoods, essentially putting its ban on hold.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Tom Price to lead the Department of Health and Human Services and Treasury Secretary-designate Steven Mnuchin.

But records show the bank utilized the questionable practice in Ohio.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ohio Democrat Sherrod Brown said, \"We are not going to this committee today because we want the committee to regroup, get the information, have these two nominees come back in front of the committee, clarify what they lied about — I would hope they would apologize for that — and then give us the information that we all need for our states.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Senate Finance Committee chairman Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, opened the committee meeting by saying he was \"really disappointed\" by the Democrats' decision to boycott. \"These two nominees are going to go through regardless,\" Hatch said. \"Let's not treat people like this. I think some of this is because they just don't like the president.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other Senate committees moved ahead on votes to approve Trump's nominees to lead the departments of Energy, Interior and Education, as well as Attorney General-designate Jeff Sessions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hatch said he couldn't remember Republicans treating nominees from Democratic presidents this way. In response to that and other such assertions from the GOP, many Democrats are raising the fact that Republicans refused to hold hearings last year on President Barack Obama's nominee for the Supreme Court, Merrick Garland. President Trump is set to announce his pick to fill that seat Tuesday night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats are under increasing pressure from their party's voters to obstruct the Trump administration however they can. At a demonstration led by House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer last night in front of the Supreme Court to protest President Trump's executive order on immigration and refugees, some demonstrators said they wanted Democrats in Congress to block every Trump nominee, though they have limited power to do so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement on the delay, Sen. Ron Wyden, the top Democrat on the Finance Committee, said, \"Until questions are answered, Democrats believe the committee should not move forward with either nomination.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2017 NPR.
