- one of a series of treaties that the Central Powers signed after their defeat in World War I - outlined the dissolution of the Ottoman Empire and called for an autonomous Kurdistan.Three years later, after the end of the war, Western allies dropped demands for an independent Kurdish state and the Kurdish region was divided among several countries.What does Turkey have to say?Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has always adopted a robust attitude against Kurdish nationalism. The President made it clear that his ultimate goal is to 543
With reported squabbling between the CDC and White House, the CDC announced late Wednesday that a no-sail order on passenger cruise ships has been extended through the month of October due to the coronavirus pandemic.The order, which will now run through Oct. 31, was set to expire tonight.According to the New York Times, the CDC had wanted to extend the order into February, but the White House blocked the move.The no-sail order, which originally began in April, prohibits cruise ships from carrying 250 passengers in waters subject to US jurisdiction.The CDC said it has identified at least 3,689 coronavirus-related illnesses, and 41 associated deaths, although the CDC cautions these figures are likely an underestimate.“On cruise ships, passengers and crew share spaces that are more crowded than most urban settings,” the CDC said. “Data show that when only essential crew are on board, ongoing spread of SARS-CoV-2 still occurs. If unrestricted cruise ship passenger operations were permitted to resume, passengers and crew on board would be at increased risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection and those that work or travel on cruise ships would place substantial unnecessary risk on healthcare workers, port personnel and federal partners (i.e., Customs and Border Protection and the U.S. Coast Guard), and the communities they return to.”While it’s possible the cruise industry can resume operations in November, it’s likely that the coronavirus will continue to have a significant effect on the industry for months to come. Carnival had already announced plans to suspended operations on several ships until the spring. 1629
You see your phone light up from the corner of your eye and instinctively reach for it. What started as a simple notification check snowballs into an hour-long session as you swipe through rows of notifications and scroll through endless social media feeds.This is by design.From app developers to tech behemoths such as Google and Facebook, companies have spent years working to make consumer technology as addictive as possible. After all, time spent with their products could equal big bucks for the company.However, that's starting to change, and we could be at the precipice of a shift in how software is designed. Apple and Google are implementing new features aimed at curbing phone usage, and apps like Instagram are rolling out features intended to help you manage your time with the app better.So, why are they doing this, and is it enough?Tristan Harris previously worked at Google as a design ethicist, and he saw first-hand how developers worked to capture people's attention and hook them in. He was part of the infamous "Facebook Class" from Stanford. Led by instructor BJ Fogg, who oversaw the Persuasive Technology Lab, they studied how to "persuade users to take certain actions," according to Wired.com. The article stated that the class "developed the techniques to make ... apps and gadgets addictive" and that members of the class went on to create Instagram and design products at companies such as Google, Facebook and Uber.Fogg told CNN that he disputes the characterization that his class taught people to create addictive technology.Speaking about his time working at Google, Harris told NPR's TED Radio Hour that "at the end of the day, it was about capturing attention.""You know, how would we hook people into spending more time on the screen or driving more page views or getting people to click on ads?"After leaving Google in 2016, Harris went on to found a nonprofit that is now called the Center for Humane Technology, and he started the "Time Well Spent" movement."With Time Well Spent, we want technology that cares about helping us spend our time, and our lives, well -- not seducing us into the most screen time, always-on interruptions or distractions," Harris says.The movement made waves in Silicon Valley and set in motion a sea change in the tech industry. 2333
"He's an amazing baby, all he does is eat and sleep," she says.But what makes this feat even more remarkable is that Emerson underwent a heart transplant in 2014. She was diagnosed with restrictive cardiomyopathy in 2011, and was later put on a long list of recipients for a heart transplant.Her prayers were answered on Valentine's Day in 2014. She received her heart from 21-year-old Blake Adkins, who died from a brain aneurysm. Emerson remains close to Adkins' mother Donna, who is overjoyed that her son lives on through Emerson and now her new baby boy, too."She was so excited because her son was not only able to keep me alive, but he was also to keep my baby alive as well," Emerson said. "I mean my heart, his heart, beats for two."Emerson says her family is now complete. She married her husband Bradley a year ago, and her family grew with his two children. Emerson also has an adopted son. Now with her new baby, Collings, she feels like her family is complete. But she knows it's a family that almost never was, and wouldn't have been without Adkins' sacrifice.She urges everyone to register to be a donor. She says she and her baby are proof it saves lives.This story was originally published by 1213
even if manufacturers say it’s safe. Sewer system experts aren't convinced "flushable wipes" break down fast enough to prevent problems. In Colorado Springs new technology aims to hold flushers accountable for any problems. "What would you see right here it's a common typical everyday scenario as you can see a lot of baby wipes," said Colorado Springs Utilities Wastewater Operator Chris Fernandez. "Flushable wipes, toys, plastics anything that somebody would throw in a toilet it's going to come here." Fernandez is a wastewater operator at a Colorado Springs facility that treats more than 30 million gallons of wastewater each day. "This is something that needs to be addressed. Over the years it has gotten worse," said Fernandez. He showed KOAA how thousands of pounds of wet wipes are pulled from the sewage drains each week and piled up in rollaway dumpsters. "That's 99% baby wipes or any kind of wipes," said Fernandez. This year alone, crews have had to haul away 100 of these dumpsters full of wipes. "As that non-organic material flows down through our sewer systems that can cause blockages it can hit homes and you can possibly even back up basements," said Fernandez. For years, wastewater companies have tried to educate the public about the problem. Now, new technology is helping to hold those who flush wipes accountable. "You know if there's a stoppage we'll get it investigated and then you know there could be a lot of ramifications for whoever is flushing these wipes down the drain if we can show a tap where it's coming from a business or residence then you know could be a lot of legal right ramifications for them," said Colorado Springs Utilities Operations Supervisor Dave Dunlap. Using robotic cameras, Colorado Springs Utilities crews get a glimpse into the sewer lines, pinpointing who is causing problems for the city's wastewater system. "If you can actually visually see something as opposed to just running a cleaning tool through it and bring it back, I mean you might find something you might not. this actually shows it to you, so I say it's a game-changer for us," said Dunlap. More than 100 miles south in Trinidad, many residents use septic tanks and according to J.J. Rivera, a septic tank pumper, the flushing of wipes is causing problems for them as well. "They go buy a home in the hills because it's peaceful, tranquil. oh, don't worry we'll just keep our habits going. Pretty soon... honey, lines are backed up. Honey, there's stuff in the basement. Oh, I didn't know. So here we go out and find the problem, 90% of it is wipes. They're like, we had no idea," said Rivera who runs Little Stinker Septic Service. Rivera's family has been in the septic service business for decades and says the decision to flush wet wipes has been life changing for some of his customers, costing them tens of thousands of dollars to fix the problems. "What made them listen was they got hit in the pocketbook," said Rivera. "That was money they were planning on vacation, we were going to go do this we are going to buy new car, oh my god it just vanished because we were doing something we were not supposed to but we are accustomed to." While the nationwide debate continues over just how flushable the flushable wipes really are, Rivera hopes someone will develop wipes that can set a new standard helping to limit the damage caused by wipes in the pipes. According to the market research group Euromonitor International, sales of personal wipes reached .2 billion in North America in 2015 and the market continues to grow. The biggest manufacturers of flushable wipes say their products don't pose a risk to sewage systems. Wastewater experts disagree and advise people to play it safe and throw wipes in the trash.This story was originally published by Patrick Nelson at KOAA. 3832
