How Women Dominate in D.C., Why Henry Ford Could Have Saved Detroit, Hemingway's Big Break: The New Atlantic Weekly

Also in this issue: The fight over circumcision, the mystery of false confessions, and the case for cowboy flicks, and more

Conjure in your mind's eye a Washington lobbyist. If stereotype serves you're picturing a back-slapper in a dark suit. Perhaps a smoker of cigars. Maybe a steak favoring golf lover. You're picturing a man, probably. And while most Beltway lobbyists still tend to be male, as Elahe Izadi reports in the new issue of the Atlantic Weekly, some of the more successful ones are now women. New data show that lobbying contracts held by women tend now to worth more than those held by men. Izadi, who covers Capitol Hill for National Journal, explains why--and what this development means for the future of power and influence in Washington.

This week, we also present a terrific--and moving--story about a murder in Philadelphia that two innocent men confessed to perpetrating. The piece, by the lawyer Marc Bookman, probes the mystery of false confessions and tells the tale of one of the strangest cases to ever move through the Philly courts. In another, very different, tale of urban life, we show how Detroit might have been spared its economic meltdown had only Henry Ford had decided to open a private university in Motown. It's a surprising piece that provides new insight on Detroit's undoing and points to the energizing power of research universities.

Speaking of great American icons in dire straits, the film writer Michael Agresta bemoans the impending demise of the Western--and makes a case for saving the genre in this issue. We also consider the legacy that Army private Bradley Manning will leave behind as he heads to prison for sharing a trove of government secrets with WikiLeaks--is he a traitor or a hero, or something more complex? We also wade into the debate over circumcision with a personal story of how one mother answered the question of what to do about her son's foreskin.

On the iPad this week, we're also thrilled to share one of Ernest Hemingway's most important short stories, "Fifty Grand," which was the first story Hemingway landed in an American magazine--and which became one of the early signals of the brilliant literary career just getting underway in 1927. We've got all of this and more ready for download now.

The Atlantic Weekly is available in the iTunes store now.

Android Secures 80 Percent Global Market Share

On the eve of the Moto X launch, Google's Android platform is going strong, with a 65 percent lead over all other mobile operating systems, according to new stats from Strategy Analytics.

The report tips a growing global smartphone market, up 47 percent year over year for a total 230 million units shipped in the second quarter.

Android is the greatest benefactor of the uptick, having captured a record 80 percent share of the global smartphone OS market. Strategy Analytics executive director Neil Mawston chalks the success up to competitive licensing costs, numerous hardware partners, and a large app store.

Meanwhile, Apple's iOS reached 14 percent share this quarter ? its lowest level since Q2 2010. Microsoft slipped into third place, with 4 percent share ? its highest in three years.

"Microsoft is making steady progress in the smartphone market due to strong support from Nokia," Linda Sui, a Strategy Analytics analyst, said in a statement. "However, we believe Microsoft's WP8 platform still needs to improve in at least two areas before it truly takes off."

The first, she said, is a more competitive license fee charged to manufacturers; Redmond must also dramatically accelerate its support for advanced technologies like octo-core chipsets, which lag behind Android, Siu said.

The "others" category, which includes the BlackBerry OS, dropped from 10 percent last year to a low 3 percent, though the analytics firm offered no explanation for the steep decline.

Smartphone shipments around the world reached a whopping 229.6 million units in the second quarter, compared to 156.5 million at the same time last year.

"Growth was driven by strong demand for Android models across all price-tiers in developed and developing markets, such as the U.S., China, and Brazil," Scott Bicheno, senior analyst with Strategy Anlytics, said in a statement.

Facebook shares soar 40% in a week on mobile ad revenue increase

Wall Street likes Facebook again. Shares in the social network today returned to their flotation price for the first time since its disastrous initial public offering (IPO) last year.

Facebook's shares touched above the milestone $38-a-share float price on New York's Nasdaq exchange on Wednesday morning, before slipping down to $36.70.

The shares have soared by more than 40% since last Wednesday, when Facebook reported a massive surge in mobile advertising revenue.

The rapid share price increase values the company, founded by a 20-year-old Mark Zuckerberg in his Harvard dorm room less than a decade ago, at just under $92bn (?60bn) ? about eight times the value of Marks & Spencer (founded 1884).

Zuckerberg's paper fortune has risen by just under $5bn in a week to nearly $17bn, according to the Bloomberg billionaires index.

The 29-year-old ? known for his trademark blue hoodies and desire to maintain a relatively simple life despite his vast wealth ? has jumped from the 75th to 42nd richest person in the world, leapfrogging Microsoft boss Steve Ballmer and Dell founder Michael Dell along the way. Microsoft founder Bill Gates, 57, remains the richest person in the world with a net worth of $72bn. Mexico's Carlos Slim, 73, is $5.5bn behind Gates.

Facebook's shares have not been able to hold above the $38 float price since its 18?May 2012 debut, when Facebook's underwriters were forced to buy stock to stop the stock falling below the issue price. By the end of that month the shares had crashed by more than $10, wiping more than $4bn off the value of Zuckerberg's fortune in less than two weeks. By August, the shares had dropped a further $10 wiping out almost $50bn of the company's market value.

The recovery only really began in earnest last week when Facebook reported a much better-than-expected 53% increase in revenue to $1.8bn in the three months to the end of June.

Wall Street was particularly impressed with the company recording a 51% increase in mobile users to 819m. Previously, analysts had openly mocked Zuckerberg's promise to make the company "mobile first".

"We are investing in mobile, measurement, and product innovation," Sheryl Sandberg, Facebook's chief operating officer, said on a conference call with analysts. "The results we're reporting today demonstrate the early returns on these investments."

David Kirkpatrick, author of The Facebook Effect, a history of the company, said: "Very few people saw the pace at which the entire activity of the planet's internet connectivity was going to move toward mobile. It's clearly under way now."

"They've really done a 180-degree shift toward mobile, even if it was somewhat belatedly," he told Bloomberg.
