Music: Great Job, Internet!: Listen to a new track from California band Night Riots

California band Night Riots has only been around for a couple of years, but already the group has a bit of a following. The Riots raised almost $12,000 to record their new EP, Young Lore, via Indie Go Go and will put out the record tomorrow, July 30. A.V. Club readers can hear the new single off the record now, though.

?Remedy? is a bit of a departure from the rest of the material on Young Lore, but lead singer Travis Hawley says that?s a good thing. Says Hawley, ?When we went into the studio, we decided to change everything but the lyrics and melodies. It changed the entire vibe, but in the best way possible.? Listen below and judge for yourself.

Young Lore is available for pre-order now.

The News vs. The Newsroom : Yes, That GOP Debate Really Did Get That Nasty

Comparing the HBO series' depictions of Occupy Wall Street, the Republican presidential campaign, and the opening of the "Ground Zero Mosque" to what really happened

The Newsroom takes place roughly two years in the past, where the ACN News Night team strives to virtuously and judiciously report the news as it happens. By reenacting headline-making happenings, Aaron Sorkin's HBO series comments both on those happenings and the way they were handled by journalists. So it's worth asking: How does The Newsroom's version of events fit in with the way these events really unfolded in the media?

Not always perfectly--but not always incorrectly, either. Here's how the third episode of The Newsroom's second season compares to the real-life news coverage and media narratives of the time period it portrays.

---

The Newsroom: Episode Three opens on September 23, 2011. At the GOP presidential debate the night before, all nine Republican presidential candidates remained silent while audience members booed at a gay U.S. soldier's question for Rick Santorum about policies regarding homosexuality in the military. Will McAvoy delivers a report with some punishing extra commentary.

The news: When Stephen Hill was booed at the Republican debate and Rick Santorum didn't acknowledge the audience's negative response, several prominent media figures were, like Will, shocked, indignant, and disappointed.

MSNBC's Chris Matthews pointed out--as Jim Harper does in the episode--that this gaffe was, above all, a missed opportunity. "Is there any natural leader in the Republican party, or is it mob rule? [A candidate could say,] 'Now, let's think that through again. This guy is fighting for our country,'" Matthews said. "'You may not approve, if you have an attitude, about his orientation or his political ideologies. But let's have a hand for everybody in our military.' That would be a chilling moment."

Several Republican leaders decried both the booing and the lack of response from the primary candidates--even debate participants Santorum (who said he couldn't hear the boos from the stage) and Gary Johnson, who said he could hear the boos and regretted not saying something.

Megyn Kelly, however--the moderator at the GOP debate, for whom The Newsroom's Charlie Skinner offers a very colorful suggestion--tried to set the story straight.

---

The Newsroom: Neal continues to carry a torch for the OWS cause, and makes his case to Mackenzie that the protesters in Zuccotti Park are doing something that deserves more news coverage.

The news: In the last days of September, sentiments like Neal's popped up in the news--but they were expressed by the protesters themselves.

"Why is the media not covering it? ... Because the media is controlled by the exact people we're protesting against," said one protester, in a report from RT News. "They don't really talk about why we're there, or they try to make it seem like our numbers are dwindling when in fact they're increasing. Or that we're dirty hippies or young teenagers who are now disgruntled when that's really not the case at all."

And as for the Megyn Kelly video that Neal and Mackenzie watch in her office, you can see the rest of that report--in which Kelly expresses uncertainty over whether the protesters sprayed with pepper spray were over-dramatizing the effects of it--here. (Rough week for Megyn Kelly in Newsroom-world.)

---

The Newsroom: Sometime around September 26, Hallie appears to discover--with Jim's help--inconsistencies in Mitt Romney's record on abortion issues.

The news: Romney's sudden change of heart after a history of defending the status quo on abortion issues certainly invited questions from reporters like Hallie in the following weeks and months, as well as from the general public. This compilation of footage of Mitt Romney defending abortion rights as a Massachusetts politician surfaced that fall on YouTube.

But his changing stance was already public knowledge at this point, to some extent. Here's Rick Perry calling out Mitt Romney for flip-flopping at the GOP presidential debate on September 22.

---

The Newsroom: "You know what opened four days ago? Park51, the Ground Zero Mosque," Will tells Mackenzie. "Turns out the sky didn't fall down. And nobody, including us, covered it. You wonder why people hate the media."

The news: Expand your media diet, Will McAvoy--The Huffington Post, Gothamist, Newsday, The Washington Times, and Bloomberg Businessweek all picked up the story.

"This space is a testament to our intentions and to the service that we, as Muslims, intend to give back to Manhattan," said the Islamic cultural center's developer, Sharif El Gamal.

Apple Senior Vice President Bob Mansfield Disappears From Company Site

By Sean P. Aune | July 28, 2013

Stay Connected with Us! Follow TechnoBuffalo

A bit of a mystery is brewing over at Apple as Senior Vice President Bob Mansfield has disappeared from the company?s leadership page at Apple.com, and no information can be found anywhere on the site.

Sometime over the weekend Mansfield?s bio disappeared from the Apple site, but no word has been spoken as to why. Mansfield announced his retirement in June 2012, only to announce a mere eight weeks later that he was sticking around after all. The belief was that the firing of Scott Forstall factored into his reversal in employment.

In a bid to keep him on with the company, it is believed that Apple CEO Tim Cook offered him a pay package that was generous enough to keep him around until at least 2014, so the sudden disappearance from the company?s bio page is a bit shocking. He also had moved from being in the hardware division, where he oversaw the design of the MacBook Air, to being the?Senior Vice President of Technologies where he was working on projects such as wireless charging and semiconductors.

It is always possible this is an error, or some form of work is being done to the page, but it definitely seems a tad suspicious. We?ll just have to see if anything is revealed in the coming days or if the page just suddenly reappears.

New Discovery may Individualise Cancer Treatment

The research, published online today in Science, "increases understanding of the molecular mechanisms of action of PTEN, which is known to be defective in as many as half of all advanced cancers" says principal investigator Vuk Stambolic, Senior Scientist at the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre. Dr. Stambolic, a specialist in cell signalling, is also an Associate Professor in the Department of Medical Biophysics, University of Toronto.

In the lab, working with cell and animal models of cancer, the research team discovered what happens when the protein product of PTEN is lost or deregulated. Dr. Stambolic says: "We realized that the PTEN nuclear function links this tumor suppressor to the response to conventional cancer treatments, such as chemotherapy or radiation. This new knowledge, combined with our prior understanding of PTEN, provided immediate clues for individualizing therapy for patients with PTEN-deficient tumors."

Medical oncologist Lillian Siu, who leads numerous clinical trials at Princess Margaret, but was not directly involved in this research, says: "For clinicians, this is a significant finding that could help guide treatment decisions, especially considering that we can already test for PTEN deficiency by molecularly analyzing biopsied tissue, providing a biomarker for implementation of combined therapies that may be most effective."

For Dr. Stambolic, the discovery builds on his earlier research (Cell, 1998) which helped explain how PTEN loss promotes cell survival, another key feature of cancerous cells. "We now realize that the PTEN story was only half-told in 1998," says Dr. Stambolic. "The new findings, in conjunction with advances in molecular profiling and access to drugs already available or being tested in clinical development, present a tangible scenario to tailor treatment."

Vegas thieves take from NKY church group

BURLINGTON, Ky. - A Northern Kentucky church group that traveled to Las Vegas on a mission trip has fallen victim to thieves.

Shortly after arriving in Las Vegas, thieves stole thousands of dollars of supplies, a sport utility vehicle and a trailer while members of the Burlington Baptist Church congregation were inside eating dinner at a Chili?s restaurant.

"A family of seven drove their own SUV, and took a trailer full of all of our supplies and they drove across country. And we were going to meet them there and help unload the trailer," said Ken Ford, deacon at the church.

Ford, who was already in Vegas when the group arrived Thursday evening, said the thieves made off with various things ranging from band equipment to religious materials.

"We had band equipment, lots and lots of tooling, vacation Bible school stuff, so literally thousands and thousands of dollars inside the trailer, roughly $50,000 of supplies," he said.
?????????????
The value of what was taken is estimated at close to $100,000 if you include the family?s GMC Yukon and the trailer.

The church group traveled out west to join members of their sister church, Summerlin Community Church, in working toward improving the local community.

Ford said he filed a police report with Las Vegas police and is hopeful someone who was at the restaurant Thursday evening can help them get their stuff back.

While he?s trying to remain optimistic, Ford said news he received from officials with the police department is making that difficult.

"They say it's very common, very frequent and the odds of us getting (our supplies) back is very slim," he said.

Some of the group?s plans have had to change as a result of the incident so Ford flew back to Northern Kentucky to figure out what to do next.

However, while they may have been momentarily slowed down, the church group isn?t letting the actions of a few people undermine the work they?re trying to accomplish. About 70 people from the church are staying in Las Vegas to continue their mission.

Ford credits the resolve and dedication of the members of the group for keeping their minds and hearts in the right place.

"They have really pulled themselves up and have decided to do the mission they intended to do and be out there for the week until next Saturday," Ford said.

While they received a cold welcome when they arrived in town, members of Burlington Baptist Church said multiple churches in Las Vegas have been generous and willing to share their resources with them.

"Some of the other local churches, as an irony, have donated some supplies for Vacation Bible School to help us do what we were going to do," Ford said.

On Sunday, the church asked members of the Northern Kentucky community to make donations to help them replace what was stolen.

You can make a donation by visiting the church office at 3031 Washington Street in Burlington.

China orders production cuts in several industries

China?s government has ordered companies to close factories in 19 industries where overproduction has led to price-cutting wars, affirming its determination to push ahead with a painful economic restructuring despite slowing growth.

The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued orders late on Thursday to more than 1,400 companies to cut excess capacity that has led to financial trouble for manufacturers.

The affected industries include steel, cement, copper and glass. It requires some companies to close outright.

The ministry said it aims to eliminate ?backward production capacity,? indicating it also is meant to improve efficiency in energy and resource use.

Other industries targeted include coke, calcium carbide, aluminum, smelting of lead and zinc, paper, alcohol, monosodium glutamate, citric acid, leather, printing and dyeing, chemical fiber and batteries.

The production glut is in part a lingering cost of the multibillion-dollar stimulus that helped China rebound quickly from the 2008 global crisis. Beijing pumped money into the economy with a wave of spending, much of it financed by state banks, on building new subways, bridges and other public works.

Higher revenues for state-owned construction companies and suppliers of steel and other building materials propped up inefficient producers and encouraged some to expand.

In the cement industry, Thursday?s order calls on companies to shut down facilities with annual production capacity of more than 92 million tons. Steel producers were ordered to eliminate 7 million tonnes of production capacity.

Communist leaders are trying to reduce reliance on investment and trade. However, a slowdown that pushed China?s economic growth to a two-decade low of 7.5 percent in the latest quarter prompted suggestions they might have to reverse course and stimulate the economy with more investment to reduce the threat of job losses and unrest.

?This detailed list shows the government is serious in its efforts to restructure the economy and is prepared to tolerate the necessary pain,? Nomura economist Zhang Zhiwei (???) wrote in a report. ?This reinforces our view that aggressive policy stimulus is unlikely in 2012 and that growth should trend down.?

An investment boom and government subsidies to industries such as solar panel manufacturing prompted producers to expand rapidly until supply exceeded demand. Companies have been forced to slash prices, often to below production cost.

The government?s overall measure of prices charged by producers has fallen for the past 16 months, threatening a growing number with financial ruin. A major solar panel maker, Suntech Power Holdings Ltd (??), was forced into bankruptcy this year.
