back from the Thanksgiving break in with two weeks until the Christmas break begins.

We're starting in the Middle Eastern country of Iraq today, partly because its prime minister resigned over the weekend.

Abdul Mahdi's decision on Sunday and what that means is that Iraq's current government is now a caretaker government, a sort of placeholder until parliament can put together a new leadership.

It started with protests that began in early October.

Iraqis say they're frustrated by corruption in the government.

A lack of jobs, power adages and problems with other government service is there's been fighting between protesters and police.

There's been vandalism of government offices, and last Thursday, Iraqi security forces opened fire on demonstrators with live ammunition, killing more than 40 people in a city of southern Iraq.

It was the deadliest day in the ongoing protests, and an Iraqi court gave a high ranking security officer a death sentence for his role in that.

In all, more than 430 people have been killed and 15,000 have been hurt since the protests started that includes both civilians and security forces.

And despite Prime Minister Abdul Mahdi's resignation, protesters say it's not enough.

Police say Iran's consulate and the Iraqi city of Najaf was burned.

Protesters have been concerned about Iran's growing influence over what happens in Iraq.

Theo US The Turn Black Friday was first used to describe what plunging gold prices, historic holiday spending, stock market collapse or retail profit surge back in 18 69.

Black Friday sounds kind of scary, and it waas black Friday first referred to the collapse of the U.

A century later, Philadelphia police used Black Friday to describe chaos and congestion.

Downtown streets were clogged with hordes of shoppers headed to the big department stores.

Retailers hated the term but then tried to reinvent it.

It was the day their profits went from red to black.

So they said Black Friday really started catching on in the eighties nineties, pushed by the growth of big box stores.

Today it's all about bargains, and black Friday is dark.

Roofs are for the history books now small business Saturday Cyber Monday and giving Tuesday are all on the shopping season calendar, but for Black Friday itself a new record with set this year, with Americans spending $7.4 billion in online sales alone, Adobe Analytics says almost 40% of those sales were made through smartphones, indicating that shoppers were getting more comfortable buying Christmas and holiday gifts on smaller screens, nerve and paw patrol toys, video games in the Nintendo switch, Apple products and Samsung TVs.

These air some of the most popular items sold online.

There were also a lot of online purchases that were picked up in brick and mortar stores so people could bypass checkout lines.

CNBC reports that this year's black Friday was the second biggest online shopping day in history, behind Cyber Monday of last year.

But experts expect that today's CYBERMONDAY will set an all time online spending record.

You've heard the truth will set you free.

Can music help do that to even for people in prison?

Lend us your ears for a report on how composing and playing music appears to help rehabilitate men at a South Carolina Correctional Facility.

As far as prisons go, if we have to be here, we need something to reform of.

And music is a direct expression of what we feel we wanna be until let go of the things that we don't want any more.

At Lea Correctional Institution, a maximum security prison in South Carolina, the New York based Chamber Orchestra Dakota spends a week a year working with inmates to write music.

The inmates included in this program, a chosen by merit nor prime musical experience is necessary.

I want to learn this in chunks because you guys, they're teaching us this song now, which is totally radical, and often before I was never exposed to classical music or chamber music or anything that was cultured.

Honestly, I closed myself off to, ah, world of expression that I never really knew existed.

Way have an opportunity in this program to put away the violence and all these other mediums of expression that do nothing but hurt people, and we can channel those feelings and expressions into music.

And now you have to lift up your arm a little bit more.

Yes, when we're able to practice and actually get together.

And just for that moment, just just for that little bit of time, you're able to take your armor off for once and just breathe.

We have to act hard, you know, act tough, put on sort of a facade, and we can channel those feelings and expressions into music, which is the most positive way to express yourself.

Uses for robots around the world are on the rise, but one of the human senses they don't have is touch.

They can't feel and respond to physical contact.

So the more they work alongside people, the greater the chances are of an accident.

There are scientists working on solutions for this, though some say they're not gonna be in place anytime soon.

It's hard not to want to hug Wally cozying up to some of his real life counterparts.

That's why this professor wants to help man and machine interact better than ever before.

Robots today are often used in factories and on assembly lines.

In 2017 manufacturers had roughly 85 industrial robots for 10,000 employees worldwide, global supply of industrial robots is expected to grow 14% per year until 2021.

But because robots have no awareness of themselves or their surroundings, they could be dangerous.

In fact, they put a fence completely around, so keeping human away from the mobile and we want to actually remove defense.

To do that, Dr Gordon Chang created the world's first artificial skin for robots, enabling them to feel and respond to physical contact.

More than 13,000 sensors cover H one's body from shoulder to toe, detecting temperature, proximity and pressure.

These are some of the fundamental sense in inhuman and interaction safe.

Several research teams have tried giving the gift of touch to robots, according to Gordon, and the sensors were never the problem.

But the computing power needed to process this data proved overwhelming.

Why would I want to carry six under computer with me truck to follow Theglobe Oop turned to human skin to solve the problem.

Each person has about five million skin receptors, but your brain can't digest info from each one at the same time.

Instead, the nervous system prioritizes new sensations.

For instance, you feel gloves when he first put them on.

But eventually your body basically forgets they're there, reigned in our body.

Come up with a skin that, uh, you don't send me information unless there's something that is significant for me to know about.

Inspired by the system team combined algorithms with sensors designed to transmit information on Lee when their values changed.

A robot that could be guided by touch, detect uneven surfaces and respond to physical presence.

Those applications will enable a future of mechanical caregivers, health workers and even companions on.

Finally, this Monday, a feast with the beasts, or at least a meal for the monkeys.

Why should people have all the fun of a Thanksgiving dinner?

The Phoenix Zoo treated it's squirrel monkeys to one of their own.

This spread included their usual salad, papaya and bananas, because monkeys and they seem to enjoy eating it in Thanksgiving style.

So in the kingdom of an Amelia, we don't have to taxonomy ourselves to find core data on an orderly meal for which monkeys will be giving things.

We just whip up a genius, or at least fruitful, spread that we can file them away for later toe.
