It was supposed to be a relaxing beach vacation for a group of friends from Oklahoma, but that wasn’t the case.Dana Flowers was part of a group that traveled to the Dominican Republic in April for their annual trip. “About the third day in, we started noticing people were missing events,” Flowers says. “And I began to wonder what was going on. And then we found out that they were sick. And before long, a lot of us started getting sick, including myself.”Flowers says he was sick for 19 days.“[I had] nausea,” he says. “Then it turned to vomiting, then diarrhea, then dizziness, faint, cramping, headaches, body aches, that type of thing.”Of the 114 people in their group, 47 of them got sick, Flowers say. Their symptoms are similar to what many others who’ve visited various resorts in the island nation have experienced.The State Department issued an advisory in April, urging American tourists to exercise increased caution due to crime but stopped short of telling tourists to cancel plans.Dr. Robert Quigley, the vice president and regional medical director for International SOS, a medical and travel security company, says they aren’t recommending anyone cancel any upcoming plans to the Dominican Republic either, at least not until there are more concrete answers about what is going on and why so many visitors have gotten ill.“In the Dominican Republic, where there has clearly been a cluster of death, we have concern about that, as does everyone,” Quigley says. “But we have no knowledge as of yet—and it is evolving—as to the cause for this cluster of deaths.”But Flowers, now healthy once again, runs a travel agency of his own. He says until we know what’s going on, he won’t recommend the Dominican Republic to anyone.“It’s just crazy,” he says. “The more I hear, the more I know there has got to be something not right.” 1854

In recent years, the recycling industry has taken a big hit.John Griffith with GFL Environmental in Denver, Colorado says the cost to recycle has gone up, and there’s more pressure to make sure what’s being recycled isn’t contaminated with trash.“We process probably 30 tons an hour,” Griffith said.Considering how much material the recycling facility takes in per day, low-cost efficiency is key, and technology has become its saving grace.“We’re using robotics and artificial intelligence to help deal with some of the primary challenges within the recycling facility,” AMP Robotics CEO Matanya Horowitz said.Created by AMP Robotics founder Matanya Horowitz, AMP Cortex is a high-speed robotics system guided by artificial intelligence.Here’s how it works: the brains and the eyes of the robot are at the top. As material passes below, its smart vision is able to pick out specific items to take out of the stream. Using its light-weight arms and rapid speed, a suction cup picks those objects up, and moves them to a different bin.“It’s very similar to just taking a vacuum cleaner you might have at home and putting it against a can and picking it up that way,” Horowitz said.The robot’s “smart vision” means it’s always learning new information. “This vision system is also connected with all the other robots across the country. So as one robot learns in a different part of the country or a different region, it also educates all the other robots so they’re constantly getting smarter,” Griffith said.However, the robot doesn’t work alone.“You could say these are the co-workers of our robot,” Griffith said as he passed human workers.Humans are still needed in the recycling process, but the robot has been able to take on sorting challenges that would otherwise be unsafe for people.“For obvious reasons, they don’t really mind getting stuck with hypodermic needles, or sifting through all the nasty stuff that ends up in the recycling like diapers, and so we can help move the manual sorter further away from these hazards,” Horowitz said.The robot at GFL Environmental is focusing its efforts on picking out items like milk jugs, coffee cups and margarine tubs. The materials were formerly considered trash, but now they can be put to valuable use and sold somewhere as another recyclable.“Our goal is to maximize the breadth of the recycling program, and by doing so, divert as much waste from the landfills into valuable purposes as possible,” Griffith said.Thanks to the robots, GFL Environmental is one of the first in the nation to recycle coffee cups. As more robots continue to deploy across the country, it’s clear artificial intelligence is helping to transform the recycling industry. Matanya says they’re efficient workers, but they’re also providing more transparency and data in the industry that has been historically difficult to obtain until now.“There hasn’t really been a sensor, or any means of automatically detecting how well things are working, where things are breaking down, where materials are ending up in the wrong spot. Artificial intelligence can do all that,” Horowitz said. 3127

Investigators in Utah have found remains they believe are those of a missing 5-year-old girl after the suspect provided a map of an area that authorities searched, a police chief said Wednesday afternoon.Alex Whipple, the uncle of the girl, was formally charged with aggravated murder and other charges. Investigators had held out hope of finding Elizabeth Shelley alive, police said."We certainly wanted to bring Lizzie home," Logan City Police Chief Gary Jensen said.The child's mother thanked those who helped in the search. "Lizzie was such a caring and giving little girl. We hope that we can look to her as an example of how to live," she said in a statement.Whipple's attorney said his client gave information to authorities."I met with Mr. Whipple this morning and we went over the case. He felt it would be appropriate to disclose the location of the body," attorney Shannon Demler said. "He told me, and I told authorities and took them there about 1 p.m. today."Demler indicated the location was very close to Elizabeth's home.Whipple, 21, who has been the main suspect in the girl's disappearance, also was charged with a count of child kidnapping, two counts of obstruction of justice and a count of desecration of a body, said Jensen. "We don't have a motive at this point," the chief told reporters.Jensen said that a deal was reached with the Cache County Attorney's Office to take the death penalty off the table, in exchange for information that would lead to the girl's body.Whipple had been drinking and playing video games with Elizabeth's mother and her live-in boyfriend the night before the girl was reported missing, according to court documents filed in Cache County.The suspect, located by police hours after Elizabeth vanished, gave investigators conflicting versions of his whereabouts the previous night, the documents said. At one point, he left a police interview room and "began licking his hands" and trying to wipe them clean.Whipple eventually admitted being at Elizabeth's home and told police he went on a walk to "enjoy the scenery" after his sister and boyfriend went to their room, according to the documents. Again, investigators discovered inconsistencies in his time line.During the interview with police, the documents said, the suspect referred to the "evil" in the world and his "struggles as a child and how his family has treated him horribly throughout his life."Whipple told police that alcohol makes him "black out" and that "he sometimes does 'criminal things' when he blacks out," the documents said. There were dark stains consistent with blood on his pants and cuts on his hands.Investigators searching for the girl later discovered a broken, blood-stained knife that was missing from her mother's kitchen and a PVC pipe with a partial, bloodied palm print, according to the documents.Not far away, police found the teal skirt with white lace that Elizabeth had been wearing buried beneath dirt and bark. The skirt was stained with blood. A small concrete block nearby also was stained with blood.The blood on the suspect's clothing, his watch and the knife was matched to Elizabeth during a DNA test, the documents said. The palm print on pipe was matched to the suspect.Elizabeth was last seen at her home by her mother on Saturday at 2 a.m., according to Logan City Police Capt. Tyson Budge. Shelley's family also last saw Whipple, who had come to the family's home for a visit on Friday night, around that time.Whipple, who has since been arrested, was the main suspect in the child's disappearance. "We have strong evidence connecting Alex to Lizzie's disappearance," Jensen said.Jensen said they had forensic evidence linking the two together, "DNA positive materials," but would not elaborate.Whipple had been arrested on a warrant for probation violation on Saturday. Elizabeth was not with him when he was found, police said.He appeared in court Tuesday and was ordered held without bail, according to CNN affiliate KSTU.Investigators are now looking to determine a search area for the child using security cameras and smart doorbell systems near the Shelley's home.Police have released surveillance footage of Whipple's attire on Friday in hopes that businesses and residents will check their footage as well as their yards, buildings, containers and garbage cans for anything they don't recognize.Jensen said Whipple has been exercising his right to remain silent and has not been cooperating with the investigation. 4495
