"content": "\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Updated at 9:59 a.m. ET \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Trump fired Secretary of State Rex Tillerson on Tuesday morning in a tweet that followed a year of frequent tension between the two leaders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump said he is nominating CIA director Mike Pompeo as Tillerson’s replacement, which requires confirmation by the Senate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/973540316656623616\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Rex and I have been talking about this for a long time … we got along quite well but we disagreed on things,” Trump told reporters at the White House. “We were not really thinking the same … with Mike, we have a very similar thought process.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State Department officials, on the other hand, said they were caught off guard.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The secretary had every intention of remaining because of the tangible progress made on critical national security issues,” said Undersecretary of State Steve Goldstein. “He established and enjoyed relationships with his counterparts. He will miss his colleagues at the Department of State and enjoyed working together with the Department of Defense in an uncommonly robust relationship.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Continued Goldstein: “The secretary did not speak to the president this morning and is unaware of the reason, but he is grateful for the opportunity to serve, and still believes strongly that public service is a noble calling and not to be regretted. ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump and Tillerson have been described as talking often, but sometimes also appeared quite out of step on major foreign policy decisions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A White House official says the president wanted to have a new team in place in advance of upcoming talks with North Korea and ongoing trade negotiations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson, who was traveling in Africa last week, was caught flat-footed when the surprise announcement came that Trump had accepted an invitation to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. Just a day earlier, he’d told reporters that negotiations were a long way off.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump has tapped Gina Haspel, Pompeo’s former deputy and a CIA veteran, to take the helm of the spy agency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Haspel did not require Senate confirmation to serve in her deputy role but will to serve as the full-fledged director of the agency. Her hearing could exhume many CIA demons about the torture of terror suspects and the secret detention program that followed the 2001 terror attack.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats blasted what they called the nonstop chaos of the Trump White House, which they said meant it cannot focus on conducting business seriously.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The instability of this administration in just about every area weakens America,” said Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson, the former boss of petrogiant ExxonMobil, didn’t know Trump before 2016 — and their relationship seemed to eventually rupture after months of disputes over policy, embarrassing leaks and a few public humiliations by the president himself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump told reporters on Tuesday that he and Tillerson had always gotten along and that he was a “good man,” but their friction over tough issues such as the Iran nuclear deal had been what compelled Trump to replace him.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Slow Burn\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The campaign had apparently been in the works for some time. White House officials on Nov. 30 cranked up the pressure on Tillerson with an apparent targeted leak to the New York Times. It revealed the existence of a secret plan by chief of staff John Kelly to force out Tillerson and replace him with Pompeo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump would then nominate Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., to replace Pompeo, according to the Times. As it happened, Cotton is not getting the nomination to lead the CIA after all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The report took care to say that the plan was “tentative” and Trump hadn’t yet approved it, but the message to the State Department’s headquarters in Foggy Bottom in Washington, D.C., was clear: The White House was finished with Tillerson and wanted him out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That story followed other evidence that the relationship between the president and the nation’s top diplomat was barely functional.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson earlier said he would not resign in October after an \u003ca href=\"https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/white-house/tillerson-s-fury-trump-required-intervention-pence-n806451?cid=eml_nbn_20171004\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">NBC News report \u003c/a>said Tillerson had called Trump a “moron” in July after a tense meeting at the Pentagon. Tillerson declined to deny it publicly, and Trump retorted to Forbes magazine that he was ready to compare “I.Q.” tests — “and I can tell you who’s going to win.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump also undermined Tillerson’s efforts to find a diplomatic solution to the situation in North Korea. As Tillerson kept up support for talks with Pyongyang over its nuclear and ballistic missile programs, Trump said on Twitter Oct. 1 that Tillerson was “wasting his time.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Save your energy Rex, we’ll do what has to be done!” \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/realdonaldtrump/status/914497947517227008\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Trump wrote\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was about five months later that Trump agreed to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson had also distanced himself from what critics have called Trump’s equivocation between neo-Nazis and counterprotesters, who clashed over a Confederate monument in Charlottesville, Virginia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson appeared Aug. 27 on \u003ca href=\"http://www.foxnews.com/transcript/2017/08/27/gov-abbott-on-harveys-impact-secretary-tillerson-talks-north-korean-threat-afghanistan-strategy.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fox News Sunday\u003c/a> and was asked by host Chris Wallace about the way the international community views the United States following Trump’s controversial comments about the protesters and counterprotesters in the wake of deadly violence in Charlottesville.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We express America’s values from the State Department,” Tillerson said. And later: “The president speaks for himself, Chris.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson’s departure makes him the latest member of Trump’s inner circle in the administration to step down — following a series of White House aides, starting with national security adviser Mike Flynn, continuing on to chief strategist Steve Bannon, press secretary Sean Spicer, chief of staff Reince Priebus and chief economic adviser Gary Cohn — who have left their posts amid administration turbulence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson’s firing also follows the departure former Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price, who was ousted over a travel expense scandal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson leaves behind a State Department that critics have called a shadow of its former self because of Tillerson’s disconnection from the department and the White House’s antipathy toward appointing or keeping top talent in the nation’s diplomatic ranks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some ambassadorships around the world and other top jobs at the department’s Foggy Bottom headquarters remained vacant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And speculation has swirled for so long that Tillerson might quit that this isn’t the first wave of discussion about prospective replacements. A previous go-round centered on Nikki Haley, the U.S. ambassador to the U.N. and former governor of South Carolina. The New York Times reported there was tentative talk that President Trump might appoint his daughter, Ivanka, as Haley’s replacement at the U.N.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For now, Haley remains in her post in New York and the Ivanka narrative appears to have cooled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson’s tenure as America’s top diplomat was unlikely. Trump interviewed other, more conventional candidates, including 2012 GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney, but he ultimately gave the nod to the Texas oilman Tillerson based on a recommendation from former Defense Secretary Robert Gates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson told interviewers early on that he hadn’t been looking for the job and was “stunned” to get Trump’s offer — but his wife, Renda St. Clair, sold him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“‘I told you God’s not through with you,'” as Tillerson recounted his wife’s remarks.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Oilman\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Tillerson had no governmental experience; he went to work in 1975 for Exxon Co., as it was then known, as an oil production engineer. But having risen to become CEO of the descendant ExxonMobil, he effectively served as a kind of head of state of his own — not only running the energy behemoth, but also conducting its foreign policy across the globe in all the places it drilled or refined or conducted other operations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That work brought Tillerson into contact with all manner of leaders, including Russian President Vladimir Putin, who awarded him Russia’s Order of Friendship in 2008. Trump and Tillerson met with Putin and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in Germany in June, and then Tillerson continued follow-up negotiations with Russia until his departure from office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As secretary of state, Tillerson belonged to a cadre of leaders who sometimes preceded Trump on international travel to assuage allies’ concerns about him. Or they returned after his visits to try to smooth things over.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson, Vice President Pence, Defense Secretary James Mattis and others emphasized conventional points about American commitment to allies, to international norms and other long-standing points — often after Trump appeared willing to flout them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the same time, Tillerson stayed in lockstep with the president on many matters of policy. He defended to the State Department press corps, for example, the realism that he said underpinned the administration’s new strategy focused on Afghanistan, which amounted to the new goal of playing to a draw.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think the president was clear this entire effort is intended to put pressure on the Taliban to have the Taliban understand: You will not win a battlefield victory. We may not win one, but neither will you,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the same time, however, the new Afghanistan strategy will remain one of Tillerson’s most significant elements of unfinished business. It depended upon a broad new diplomatic campaign across South Asia involving pressure on India and Pakistan to help with a good outcome in Afghanistan — even though, at the time, the United States did not have active ambassadors in India or Afghanistan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2018 NPR.

He will miss his colleagues at the Department of State and enjoyed working together with the Department of Defense in an uncommonly robust relationship.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Continued Goldstein: “The secretary did not speak to the president this morning and is unaware of the reason, but he is grateful for the opportunity to serve, and still believes strongly that public service is a noble calling and not to be regretted. ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump and Tillerson have been described as talking often, but sometimes also appeared quite out of step on major foreign policy decisions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A White House official says the president wanted to have a new team in place in advance of upcoming talks with North Korea and ongoing trade negotiations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson, who was traveling in Africa last week, was caught flat-footed when the surprise announcement came that Trump had accepted an invitation to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. Just a day earlier, he’d told reporters that negotiations were a long way off.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump has tapped Gina Haspel, Pompeo’s former deputy and a CIA veteran, to take the helm of the spy agency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Haspel did not require Senate confirmation to serve in her deputy role but will to serve as the full-fledged director of the agency. Her hearing could exhume many CIA demons about the torture of terror suspects and the secret detention program that followed the 2001 terror attack.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats blasted what they called the nonstop chaos of the Trump White House, which they said meant it cannot focus on conducting business seriously.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The instability of this administration in just about every area weakens America,” said Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson, the former boss of petrogiant ExxonMobil, didn’t know Trump before 2016 — and their relationship seemed to eventually rupture after months of disputes over policy, embarrassing leaks and a few public humiliations by the president himself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump told reporters on Tuesday that he and Tillerson had always gotten along and that he was a “good man,” but their friction over tough issues such as the Iran nuclear deal had been what compelled Trump to replace him.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Slow Burn\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The campaign had apparently been in the works for some time. White House officials on Nov. 30 cranked up the pressure on Tillerson with an apparent targeted leak to the New York Times. It revealed the existence of a secret plan by chief of staff John Kelly to force out Tillerson and replace him with Pompeo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump would then nominate Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., to replace Pompeo, according to the Times. As it happened, Cotton is not getting the nomination to lead the CIA after all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The report took care to say that the plan was “tentative” and Trump hadn’t yet approved it, but the message to the State Department’s headquarters in Foggy Bottom in Washington, D.C., was clear: The White House was finished with Tillerson and wanted him out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That story followed other evidence that the relationship between the president and the nation’s top diplomat was barely functional.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson earlier said he would not resign in October after an \u003ca href=\"https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/white-house/tillerson-s-fury-trump-required-intervention-pence-n806451?cid=eml_nbn_20171004\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">NBC News report \u003c/a>said Tillerson had called Trump a “moron” in July after a tense meeting at the Pentagon. Tillerson declined to deny it publicly, and Trump retorted to Forbes magazine that he was ready to compare “I.Q.” tests — “and I can tell you who’s going to win.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump also undermined Tillerson’s efforts to find a diplomatic solution to the situation in North Korea. As Tillerson kept up support for talks with Pyongyang over its nuclear and ballistic missile programs, Trump said on Twitter Oct. 1 that Tillerson was “wasting his time.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Save your energy Rex, we’ll do what has to be done!” \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/realdonaldtrump/status/914497947517227008\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Trump wrote\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was about five months later that Trump agreed to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson had also distanced himself from what critics have called Trump’s equivocation between neo-Nazis and counterprotesters, who clashed over a Confederate monument in Charlottesville, Virginia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson appeared Aug. 27 on \u003ca href=\"http://www.foxnews.com/transcript/2017/08/27/gov-abbott-on-harveys-impact-secretary-tillerson-talks-north-korean-threat-afghanistan-strategy.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fox News Sunday\u003c/a> and was asked by host Chris Wallace about the way the international community views the United States following Trump’s controversial comments about the protesters and counterprotesters in the wake of deadly violence in Charlottesville.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We express America’s values from the State Department,” Tillerson said. And later: “The president speaks for himself, Chris.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson’s departure makes him the latest member of Trump’s inner circle in the administration to step down — following a series of White House aides, starting with national security adviser Mike Flynn, continuing on to chief strategist Steve Bannon, press secretary Sean Spicer, chief of staff Reince Priebus and chief economic adviser Gary Cohn — who have left their posts amid administration turbulence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson’s firing also follows the departure former Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price, who was ousted over a travel expense scandal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson leaves behind a State Department that critics have called a shadow of its former self because of Tillerson’s disconnection from the department and the White House’s antipathy toward appointing or keeping top talent in the nation’s diplomatic ranks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some ambassadorships around the world and other top jobs at the department’s Foggy Bottom headquarters remained vacant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And speculation has swirled for so long that Tillerson might quit that this isn’t the first wave of discussion about prospective replacements. A previous go-round centered on Nikki Haley, the U.S. ambassador to the U.N. and former governor of South Carolina. The New York Times reported there was tentative talk that President Trump might appoint his daughter, Ivanka, as Haley’s replacement at the U.N.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For now, Haley remains in her post in New York and the Ivanka narrative appears to have cooled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson’s tenure as America’s top diplomat was unlikely. Trump interviewed other, more conventional candidates, including 2012 GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney, but he ultimately gave the nod to the Texas oilman Tillerson based on a recommendation from former Defense Secretary Robert Gates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson told interviewers early on that he hadn’t been looking for the job and was “stunned” to get Trump’s offer — but his wife, Renda St. Clair, sold him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“‘I told you God’s not through with you,'” as Tillerson recounted his wife’s remarks.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Oilman\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Tillerson had no governmental experience; he went to work in 1975 for Exxon Co., as it was then known, as an oil production engineer. But having risen to become CEO of the descendant ExxonMobil, he effectively served as a kind of head of state of his own — not only running the energy behemoth, but also conducting its foreign policy across the globe in all the places it drilled or refined or conducted other operations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That work brought Tillerson into contact with all manner of leaders, including Russian President Vladimir Putin, who awarded him Russia’s Order of Friendship in 2008. Trump and Tillerson met with Putin and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in Germany in June, and then Tillerson continued follow-up negotiations with Russia until his departure from office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As secretary of state, Tillerson belonged to a cadre of leaders who sometimes preceded Trump on international travel to assuage allies’ concerns about him. Or they returned after his visits to try to smooth things over.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tillerson, Vice President Pence, Defense Secretary James Mattis and others emphasized conventional points about American commitment to allies, to international norms and other long-standing points — often after Trump appeared willing to flout them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the same time, Tillerson stayed in lockstep with the president on many matters of policy. He defended to the State Department press corps, for example, the realism that he said underpinned the administration’s new strategy focused on Afghanistan, which amounted to the new goal of playing to a draw.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think the president was clear this entire effort is intended to put pressure on the Taliban to have the Taliban understand: You will not win a battlefield victory. We may not win one, but neither will you,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the same time, however, the new Afghanistan strategy will remain one of Tillerson’s most significant elements of unfinished business. It depended upon a broad new diplomatic campaign across South Asia involving pressure on India and Pakistan to help with a good outcome in Afghanistan — even though, at the time, the United States did not have active ambassadors in India or Afghanistan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Victorville police officials have arrested and booked the teen, who visited homes and pulled a woman over, while dressed in a San Bernardino deputy sheriff's uniform.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The police department tweeted a video Wednesday showing what it found when officers searched the teen's home: the San Bernardino uniform he had used to impersonate an officer, a wig, \"a large amount\" of counterfeit money, multiple ballistic vests and simulation firearms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"As you can see, he managed to collect quite a lot of equipment,\" Mara Rodriguez, the spokeswoman for the Victorville Police Department, told NPR on Thursday. Rodriguez said that some of the equipment was purchased online, though the department is still working to figure out where much of it came from.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/VictorvillePD/status/971499318648721409\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The teen was driving a white Ford Explorer that belonged to his great-grandparents. He had attached flashing blue and red emergency lights to the inside of the windshield. The car had no law enforcement identifiers other than the lights, and the license plates had been removed, police \u003ca href=\"https://local.nixle.com/alert/6446751/\">said in a statement\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The young man was dressed in a police uniform with a simulation firearm in a holster when he paid a Victorville couple a visit Monday evening, claiming to be an officer investigating a domestic disturbance. The couple told him they had not called the police to report an incident and that there was no disturbance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At this point, authorities said, the teen tried to open the couple's door, but found it locked. He left soon after, and the homeowners reported the incident.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Sergeant J. Monroe saw a Ford Explorer matching the description of that involved in the incident,\" police said. \"He conducted a traffic stop on the vehicle and confirmed it was a match. The 14-year old great-grandson of the registered owner was detained and later identified as the suspect.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The officers also learned that was not his only stop of the evening. After opening an investigation, officers discovered the teen had two other encounters before visiting the couple.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>First, he pulled a woman over for a traffic violation before \"letting her off with a warning.\" Later, he stopped at a home where a 16-year-old opened the door. Once again he claimed to be an officer investigating a domestic incident.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Victorville police said they are still trying to figure out who the other two people are and if there are other people who might have encountered the teen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We don't really know how long he's been doing this, and that's what we are trying to figure out right now,\" Rodriguez said. \"We don't know for sure what he was trying to do ... it looks like he was just wanting to pretend to be a deputy.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The teen, who is on probation, was arrested and booked at High Desert Juvenile Detention Center.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2018 NPR.

"content": "\u003cp>Uber wants to get you from your home to your doctor's office -- and you won't even need to open the Uber app. The company announced Thursday that it's teaming up with health care organizations to provide transportation for patients going to and from medical appointments. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The rides can be scheduled for patients through doctor's offices, by receptionists or other staffers. And they can be booked for immediate pickup or up to 30 days in advance. That means patients without a smartphone -- who wouldn't be able to use Uber otherwise -- can become Uber customers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead of operating through an app, Uber Health will send its passengers' ride information through an SMS text message. The company also plans to introduce the option for passengers to receive a call with trip details to their landline instead. Drivers will still use the Uber smartphone app to pick up these passengers. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Transportation barriers are the greatest for vulnerable populations,\" says Chris Weber, the general manager of Uber Health. \"This service will provide reliable, comfortable transportation for patients.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Transportation is, indeed, a barrier to good health care. Affordable access to a vehicle is consistently associated with increased access to medical care, according to \u003ca href=\"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4265215/\" target=\"_blank\">a study\u003c/a>. Around 3.6 million Americans miss doctor's appointments or delay medical care due to a lack of transportation every year, according to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.ncsl.org/research/transportation/non-emergency-medical-transportation-a-vital-lifeline-for-a-healthy-community.aspx\" target=\"_blank\">National Conference of State Legislatures\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To meet the medical privacy standards outlined in the federal HIPAA law, drivers won't know which of their passengers are using Uber Health. Like a typical Uber ride, only a passenger's name, pickup and drop-off addresses will be given to the driver. So Uber drivers won't be able to opt into the health service the same way that they opt into Uber Eats, a food delivery service.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Peter Whorley, who drives a Honda Odyssey minivan for Uber in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, often picks up passengers who need the extra space, including patients traveling to and from doctor's offices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I just picked up someone with back surgery the other day,\" he says. \"I like to help people, if they need extra assistance, I personally don't have that problem. But some people might be squeamish, and not want to.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whorley, who has been driving for Uber for more than two years, is more skeptical about picking up people without smartphones. He thinks location tracking on smartphones is vital to the efficiency of the ride-hailing service. \"When you're a good passenger, you should be able to have your phone out to communicate with your driver,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Uber's Weber says that because health care providers will use their best discretion in scheduling the rides, they won't call Ubers for people in need of urgent medical attention. \"It's not a replacement to ambulances,\" he says, but a reliable means of transportation to non-urgent medical services that he hopes will curb missed appointments. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One hundred health care organizations in the U.S., including hospitals, clinics, rehab centers, senior care facilities, home care centers, and physical therapy centers have already used Uber Health's test program. The service will be rolled out to health care organizations gradually. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2018 NPR. To see more, visit http://www.npr.org/.\u003c/p>\n\n",

And they can be booked for immediate pickup or up to 30 days in advance. That means patients without a smartphone -- who wouldn't be able to use Uber otherwise -- can become Uber customers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead of operating through an app, Uber Health will send its passengers' ride information through an SMS text message. The company also plans to introduce the option for passengers to receive a call with trip details to their landline instead. Drivers will still use the Uber smartphone app to pick up these passengers. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Transportation barriers are the greatest for vulnerable populations,\" says Chris Weber, the general manager of Uber Health. \"This service will provide reliable, comfortable transportation for patients.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Transportation is, indeed, a barrier to good health care. Affordable access to a vehicle is consistently associated with increased access to medical care, according to \u003ca href=\"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4265215/\" target=\"_blank\">a study\u003c/a>. Around 3.6 million Americans miss doctor's appointments or delay medical care due to a lack of transportation every year, according to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.ncsl.org/research/transportation/non-emergency-medical-transportation-a-vital-lifeline-for-a-healthy-community.aspx\" target=\"_blank\">National Conference of State Legislatures\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Like a typical Uber ride, only a passenger's name, pickup and drop-off addresses will be given to the driver. So Uber drivers won't be able to opt into the health service the same way that they opt into Uber Eats, a food delivery service.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Peter Whorley, who drives a Honda Odyssey minivan for Uber in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, often picks up passengers who need the extra space, including patients traveling to and from doctor's offices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I just picked up someone with back surgery the other day,\" he says. \"I like to help people, if they need extra assistance, I personally don't have that problem. But some people might be squeamish, and not want to.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whorley, who has been driving for Uber for more than two years, is more skeptical about picking up people without smartphones. He thinks location tracking on smartphones is vital to the efficiency of the ride-hailing service. \"When you're a good passenger, you should be able to have your phone out to communicate with your driver,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Uber's Weber says that because health care providers will use their best discretion in scheduling the rides, they won't call Ubers for people in need of urgent medical attention. \"It's not a replacement to ambulances,\" he says, but a reliable means of transportation to non-urgent medical services that he hopes will curb missed appointments. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One hundred health care organizations in the U.S., including hospitals, clinics, rehab centers, senior care facilities, home care centers, and physical therapy centers have already used Uber Health's test program. The service will be rolled out to health care organizations gradually. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2018 NPR.

Delta, which is based in Atlanta, had announced two days earlier that “we will be requesting that the NRA remove our information from their website” — a decision Cagle described as an attack on conservatives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked about the potential for pushback among gun rights advocates, Stack acknowledged the move “isn’t going to make everyone happy. But when we look at what those kids and the parents and the heroes in the school, what they did, our view was: If the kids can be brave enough to organize like this, we can be brave enough to get these [firearms] out of here.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re staunch supporters of the Second Amendment,” he added. “I’m a gun owner myself.

"content": "\u003cp>We spend a lot of time talking to Alexa and Siri. Imagine if such artificial personalities were put inside a cute, adorable robot. That's what Alexander Reben has done. The artist created what he saw as the perfect interview machine to see how much he could get people to reveal to the robot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reben's experiments with human robot interactions began when he was working on his master's degree in robotics at MIT. He built a robot called \u003ca href=\"http://resenv.media.mit.edu/Boxie/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Boxie\u003c/a>. It was made of cardboard, about the size of a microwave oven, and rolled around like a toy tank.[contextly_sidebar id=\"yz0kM6ZG84eg4i4rxTL7lsT0kMn9aLm9\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you walked into the lab at MIT, Boxie would approach with its big, round black eyes wide open and ask you for help getting upstairs or going down the hall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reben wanted to see how many people would help the robot. He wondered, could you build cheaper robots without legs that could get around with help from humans?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But, one day, something happened that would change the course of Reben's work.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">'The robot was just a means to get closer to myself at a really critical moment in my life.'\u003ccite>Judith Helfand\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>It started with a man walking into the lab and Boxie rolling up to greet him. \"I saw him from a distance, laying on the carpet in the middle of the lab talking to this robot on the ground,\" Reben says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The man began to share his troubles with Boxie. He had never been to Boston before and he'd come to take part in the marathon. The man \"just started talking to this thing like it was another person,\" Reben says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The man told the robot that he was supposed to go to Munich, but his flight was canceled because of a volcanic eruption in Iceland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The conversation was a revelation for Reben. He realized that the characteristics that made people want to help Boxie also seduced them into talking with the robot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After all, it was cute and seemed vulnerable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reben teamed up with another artist and filmmaker, Brent Hoff, to see whether they could design a robot that would make people want to open up. They carved a smile into its face. \"It's the perfect smile. It's kind of a Mona Lisa smile,\" Hoff says. \"It's open and engaging to make sure [it] was as nonjudgmental and nonthreatening as possible.\"[contextly_sidebar id=\"2iIvqmnB8RUBK8Dpjga3ECr8rh8Wtlbk\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They gave it the sweet voice of Hoff's 8-year-old son. And they taped him asking carefully chosen questions. \"There was some consideration of what are the deepest, most important questions we have as people,\" Hoff says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It asked things like, \"Who do you love most in the world?\" or \"If you could give someone any gift, what would it be?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And it had a camera and a recorder inside it to catch the answers. They called the new robot \u003ca href=\"http://areben.com/project/blabdroid/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BlabDroid\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The idea,\" says Hoff, \"is that there is not as much judgment in a robot asking you a question as a journalist\" would.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hoff says he doesn't know for sure whether that's true, but he wanted to find out.

That's what Alexander Reben has done. The artist created what he saw as the perfect interview machine to see how much he could get people to reveal to the robot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reben's experiments with human robot interactions began when he was working on his master's degree in robotics at MIT. He built a robot called \u003ca href=\"http://resenv.media.mit.edu/Boxie/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Boxie\u003c/a>. It was made of cardboard, about the size of a microwave oven, and rolled around like a toy tank.\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you walked into the lab at MIT, Boxie would approach with its big, round black eyes wide open and ask you for help getting upstairs or going down the hall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reben wanted to see how many people would help the robot. He wondered, could you build cheaper robots without legs that could get around with help from humans?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But, one day, something happened that would change the course of Reben's work.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">'The robot was just a means to get closer to myself at a really critical moment in my life.'\u003ccite>Judith Helfand\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>It started with a man walking into the lab and Boxie rolling up to greet him. \"I saw him from a distance, laying on the carpet in the middle of the lab talking to this robot on the ground,\" Reben says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The man \"just started talking to this thing like it was another person,\" Reben says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The man told the robot that he was supposed to go to Munich, but his flight was canceled because of a volcanic eruption in Iceland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The conversation was a revelation for Reben. He realized that the characteristics that made people want to help Boxie also seduced them into talking with the robot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After all, it was cute and seemed vulnerable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reben teamed up with another artist and filmmaker, Brent Hoff, to see whether they could design a robot that would make people want to open up. They carved a smile into its face. \"It's the perfect smile. It's kind of a Mona Lisa smile,\" Hoff says. \"It's open and engaging to make sure [it] was as nonjudgmental and nonthreatening as possible.\"\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They gave it the sweet voice of Hoff's 8-year-old son. And they taped him asking carefully chosen questions. \"There was some consideration of what are the deepest, most important questions we have as people,\" Hoff says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It asked things like, \"Who do you love most in the world?\" or \"If you could give someone any gift, what would it be?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And it had a camera and a recorder inside it to catch the answers. They called the new robot \u003ca href=\"http://areben.com/project/blabdroid/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BlabDroid\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The idea,\" says Hoff, \"is that there is not as much judgment in a robot asking you a question as a journalist\" would.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hoff says he doesn't know for sure whether that's true, but he wanted to find out. And so did I.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We set up a loose experiment. I would ask people the same questions as BlabDroid and — like the robot — there wouldn't be any follow-up questions. We tried the experiment a few times: once at an art opening and once at the Exploratorium, a science museum in San Francisco; we also listened to responses BlabDroid had collected at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York City.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can click on the audio below to listen to the two examples.

Trump and his supporters deny colluding and make the dossier a favorite target because of its salacious contents and because it remained unverified.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NPR and other news organizations have not detailed the contents of the dossier because it remains unproved, but Schiff's memo suggests that the Justice Department actually has corroborated parts of it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"6qetxHaDA8QagUpmBhtdYXYomHWsUsJL\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Which parts? That is blacked out. So there is no way to know whether it's some of the anodyne background aspects of the file -- or the more infamous passages.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All the same, it is significant that the Justice Department has established for its own purposes that at least some of the contents of the dossier aren't either simply false or Russian disinformation.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>2. The feds collected \"valuable intelligence\" from Carter Page\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Onetime Trump adviser Carter Page is the main character of the dueling memos. For Republicans, he is a civil liberties martyr who was cruelly wronged by \"biased\" FBI and DoJ officials who duped a judge into authorizing intrusive surveillance against him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schiff's memo makes a very different case. It not only cites Page's years-long flirtations with Russia's foreign intelligence service, the SVR, but highlights what it calls the worthwhile information yielded by spying on him. The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act requires that warrants produce something.

Trump and his supporters deny colluding and make the dossier a favorite target because of its salacious contents and because it remained unverified.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NPR and other news organizations have not detailed the contents of the dossier because it remains unproved, but Schiff's memo suggests that the Justice Department actually has corroborated parts of it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Which parts?

So there is no way to know whether it's some of the anodyne background aspects of the file -- or the more infamous passages.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All the same, it is significant that the Justice Department has established for its own purposes that at least some of the contents of the dossier aren't either simply false or Russian disinformation.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>2. The feds collected \"valuable intelligence\" from Carter Page\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Onetime Trump adviser Carter Page is the main character of the dueling memos. For Republicans, he is a civil liberties martyr who was cruelly wronged by \"biased\" FBI and DoJ officials who duped a judge into authorizing intrusive surveillance against him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schiff's memo makes a very different case. It not only cites Page's years-long flirtations with Russia's foreign intelligence service, the SVR, but highlights what it calls the worthwhile information yielded by spying on him. The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act requires that warrants produce something. The FBI can't keep one going if the subject of the surveillance isn't talking with people of interest or involved with clandestine activities.

From January to August 2017, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services sent 85,265 requests for evidence in response to H-1B visa applications, a 45 percent increase compared to the same period a year earlier, agency data show. Such requests are made when an application is missing required documents or when the agency determines it needs more proof to decide if a worker is eligible for the visa.

From January to August 2017, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services sent 85,265 requests for evidence in response to H-1B visa applications, a 45 percent increase compared to the same period a year earlier, agency data show. Such requests are made when an application is missing required documents or when the agency determines it needs more proof to decide if a worker is eligible for the visa.
